the capitol up Pennsylvania avenue,
past the great treasury building and
White House there were nearly 1000
regular troops and twice as many
members of the National Guard of the
different states and independent mill
tary organizations. The civic fea-
lures of the parade were many. The
trades, the professions and all kinds
of business activities were represent
ed by thousands of persons who came
to Washington to do honor to the
country's new civil chief.
Gather at the Capitol.
Early in the day the president-elect
met the outgoing president in the
White House. About an hour before
noon, the congressional committee of
arrangements, consisting of Senators
Knox, Lodge and Bacon, and Repre-
sentatives Burke, Young and Gaines,
arrived at the executive mansion and
informed the president and the presi-
dent-elect that congress was In readi-
ness for the ceremonies of the actual
Inauguration. At half-past eleven
President Roosevelt and President-to-
be Taft entered carriage, Mr.. Taft
sitting at the left of Mr.. Roosevelt. In
the carriages Immediately following
were the members of the congression-
al committee of arrangements. A body
of veterans of the civil and Spanish
wars acted as an escort for the out
going and the incoming chiefs OF
state.
Ali the morning long the crowds
had been awaiting the coming of the
two officials. The cheering was con-
slant and the names of both Roose-
velt and Taft were intermingled with
the shouts of applause. The drive to
the capitol was made slowly in order
that the veterans acting as guard of
honor might not be distanced.
The president and the president
elect were escorted by the congress
sional committee into the senate wing
of the capitol through the historic
doorway of bronze on the east side OF
the building. They went directly to
the presidents room where they re-
manned until the committee of ar
rangements came to them and an
nounced that the senate was in readi-
ness to receive them. Mr.. Roosevelt
and Mr.. Taft then walked to the SEN
ate chamber, taking the seats re-
served for them in the first row di-
rectly in front of the vice-presidents
desk.
Vice-President Fairbanks and Vice
President-eleet Sherman drove to the
capitol together and went directly to
the room of the vice-president. In
turn they were escorted to the senate
chamber as the two chief figures of
the occasion had been escorted before
them Mr.. Fairbanks went at once to
his place as presiding officer of the

tentiary; the vice-president and the
secretary of the senate; the senator's

The platform upon which President
Taft took the oath of office extended
well out from the portico until it
overhung the broad plaza to the east,
where directly to the front were gath
cred the cadets from the military anGs
naval academies, to the rear of whom
l-ere the other military bodies.
President Taft Inaugurated.
The white-haired chief justice of the
United States, Melville w. Fuller, ad-
ministered the oath of Office to Mr..
Taft, who, when he had taken it, bent
and kissed the Bible held in the hand
of his country's chief jurist Imme-
diately following the taking of the
oath, President Taft delivered his in
augural address.
The presidents speech frequently
was interrupted by applause and at
its close the great assembly broke into
cheers. The president was congratu-
lated by those who were close to him,
including the retiring president and
the other chief officials. President
Taft then entered carriage which
was at once surrounded by the mem
bers of the Black Horse troop of
Cleveland, o., which formed the spe-
cial guard of honor. The presidents
carriage was driven north and then
down the hill by the senate wing of
the capitol until Pennsylvania avenue
was reached. From that point the
president drove slowly to the White
House along the thoroughfare filled,
save for its center. with crowds of his
cheering fellow citizens.
