Guard of Honor.
President Roosevelt's guard of honor in
the inaugural parade will be a squadron of
picked men from his old regiment of Rough
Riders-the LIST United States Volunteer
Cavalry. This was decided upon late yes
terday afternoon at a conference between
the President and Col A. o. Brodie gov
ernor of Arizona, and Major w. H. H.
Llewellyn, formerly of the Rough Riders
Governor Brodfe and Major Llewellyn took
luncheon with the President yesterday and
arrangements for the guard of honor were
made at that time. 1t is the wish of the
President that Colonel Brodie select from
the members of the regiment a squadron of
cial escort on Inauguration day. He also
particularly expressed the wish that no
other members of the Rough Riders than
those selected by Colonel Brodie take part
In the parade. While others may come to
Washington to attend the Inauguration, the
President has made it clear that it will be
impossible for him at that time to see them.
Colonel Brodie will select the best men
in the regiment for the guard of honor.
They will be handsomely mounted and well
equipped and 1t is expected they will make
an impressive appearance. Colonel Brodie
says the guard will not exceed fifty men,
probably at an early date.
Will Attend Reunion.
In this connection the President desired
Colonel Brodie to inform the members of
the Rough Riders that he would attend the
annual reunion of the regiment to be held
at San Antonio the latter part of next
March on some date yet to be determined
definitely. After the reunion, the President
probably will take q hunting trim with
Major Llewellyn.
