Love for Dead President.

The affection that is felt for the late
President William Mckinley by the Ameri-
can people found illustration in little
human interest incident on Pennsylvania
avenue yesterday. There was long line
of ''fakirs'' on the north side of that thor
oughfare between 9th and 10th streets, and
nearly all of them had for sale buttons and
badges containing likenesses of President
Roosevelt and Vice President-elect Fair
banks One of the curbstone dealers, how
ever, had resurrected from somewhere
about one dozen leftover badges bearing
miniature photographs of President Mckin-
ley with Colonel Roosevelt as Vice Presi-
dent which had been used in the preceding
campaign. A party of western men stopped
in front of the fakir and surveyed the
badges moment, when one of them said:
why here are some pictures of President
Mckinley
Poor man." murmured another. He was
one of the best and truest of Americans
and we all loved him"
Then turning to the fakir. he asked:
'How much for these Mckinley badges!
"Only cents a piece. The Roosevelt and
Fairbanks badges are To-"
How many Mckinley badges have your
about twelve"
IT will take them all, and I'll find wear
err for each of them in our club too we
love Roosevelt all right, but we loved Will
lam Mckinley equally well and will revere
his memory.

press in operation mounted on a platform
drawn by four bay horses appeared in the
line. and compcsitors and pressmen were
busy printing and scattering among the
crowds programs OF the procession and or
the Inauguration ball to follow the events
of the day.
P.y no means among the least of the in
teresting parts of the grand cortege was a
large deputation of Philadelphia firemen
with their beautifully decorated fire en-
gines, trucks and hose carriages They
were escorted by the Washington fire de-
partment under Chief Engineer Sessford.
They arrived here on the day before the
inauguratio and the late William Dixon,
a PhiladelDEian himself, took them in hand
and introduced them to Mayor Dick Wal
ZACH, and made them feel perfectly at home
in the national capital. The presence of
these old fire lighters in the brilliant reu-
nue. was inspiring sight, and from the
windows and balconies along the avenue,
all densely crowded from the treasury to
the Capitol, shouts of applause from wo-
mems lips, waving of h1ndkeTchlefS and
choruSes of delight and approval greeted
the braves from the Quaker city. There
was to have been a car to follow the fire
men, containing thirty-four young ladies to
represent the states of the Union (there
was hardly in the olden time gala
parade of firemen unadorned by feminine
youth and beauty, but the rain Of the fore
noon prevented this, and thrty-four boys
were located in the car. Some may recollect
the appearance among the Philadelphians
of Uncle" Jake Trippler, who at that time
was said to be the oldest fireman in the
country. He received ovation that lasted
from the time he landed in Washington
until he departed for home.
