At Night Memorable One.

Norfolk, April 26.-Hampton Roads.
the scene today of one of the most not
able naval reviews of the world, blazed
brilliantly tonight with the lights of
half hundred mighty vessels of war.
The illumination Of the combined fleets
Of Great Britain, Germany, Austria and
Argentine Reublic and the United
States crowned with a fitting splendor
the magnificent day pictured which
had been presented when President
Roosevelt. aboard the naval yacht
Mayfiower sailed around the anchored
squadrons and received the welcome
of their thunderous guns fired in chief
magiStrial SaluteS.
The daylight decorations of vari-
colored signal flags stretched in f1ut-
tering strings from stem to stern gave
way with the setting sun to the glow
of thousands of electric bulbs and the
| far aching flash of a hundred play
| ing searchlights
The vessels of the American fleet
| We're completely outlined in incandes-
| cent bulbs. Military masts and turretS
| waterline and freeboard were strung
with the fairy like filament lanterns
| and in bold letters across the bridge
the name of the vessel burned the
J identity Of the big fighter into the
night. A brilliant moon shone over the
waters and added vastly to the beauty
| OF the scene.
The vessels of the visiting fleet:
| were also arrayed in light effects, some
of the designs being decidedly unique
and Interesting. The searchlight drill
were watched with wonderment b!
those on shore and with unstinted ad
miration by American officers AM
sailors.
