LAND VALUES IN LONDON.
(From the Pall Mall Gazette.)

(From the Pail Mall Gazette.)
In what part of London is the most
valuable land to be found? The ques-
ton arises out OF a statement by the
Daily Mail that a strip Of ground ab-
utting on the Charing Cross opening
to the Mail archway is to be sold in
two lots, the price of one Of which
works out at nearly "a pounds per
square foot, and that of the remain
ing piece at upwards OF 80 pounds
per foot. There is also a question Of
frontage price. This amounts to no
less than 10 pounds per foot. But
this reckoning OF frontage alone in
estimating the whole amount to be
paid is more sensational than exact
in conveying an idea Of the real mar
ket price OF the land.
In comparison with the values at
Charing Cross. inquiries made in the
city by a representative of the Pail
Mall Gazette show that ground in the
most valuable part OF the square
mile" fetched price far higher than
that recorded further westward. Some
time ago a piece in Lombard street.
near the Mansion house, was sold for
40 pounds a foot This. however, Is
not the highest price that has been re-

The late Bishop Potter of New York
had a most unclerical relish for prac-
teal jokes and pointed anecdotes. His
cosmopolitan spirit loved men and
( things, and nothing pleased him better
than to gather a group of congenial
spirits about him and swap jokes.
One day he met a friend, a distin-
guished JEWS rabbit, and said to him
in great seriousness:

site in the same neighborhood brought
a return of 5S pounds, and even this
has been exceeded by a tiny bit close
TO the Mansion house, which formed
a good bank site. and changed hands
for 60 pounds a foot.
But this was exceptional on account
of the situation. In Lombard street
the letting value of ground is gener-
ally recognized as pounds per foot
and this, taken at twenty years pur-
chase, marks the selling price at 40
pounds. In another instance at the
corner of Lombard street, near the
Mansion house, where there was some
difficulty. in getting a site. As pounds
per foot was the price reached.
In King William street there is on
record the letting value of a piece OF
Land at IS shillings a foot. This
taken on the basis of twenty years
purchase as before, equals the rate OF
55 pounds. As. however, this par
ticular piece was wanted some years
ahead. the purchaser had to pay 1000
pounds as premium.
1t is clear, therefore. that on a ques-
ton OF comparative value in the mar
ket the city price considerably over
tops that attained at Charing Cross.

that Farrell was afraid TO be a real

For this criticism Senator Dimick
was called down by President Malar-

made should be made privately to the
senator's. Is that the sort Of senate

Formation Of Parade.
The military and the civil parade, a
huge affair which stretched its
length for miles along the Washington
streets, formed on the avenues radiat-
ing from the capitol. After President
elect Wilson had become President
Wilson and Vice-President-elect Mar
shall had become Vice-President
Marshall, they went straightway from
the capitol to the White House al
thence shortly to the reviewing sta
in the park at the mansions front.
The parade, with Mai. Gen. Leonard
Wood, United States army. as its
grand marshal, started from the capt.
tol grounds to move along the avenue
to the White House, where 1t was to
pass in review. The trumpeter sound
ed forward march" at the instant the
signal was flashed from the White
house that in fifteen minutes the new
ly elected president and commander
in-chief of the armies and navies OF
the United States would be ready to
review his troops"
It was thought that the parade might
lack some of the picturesque features
which particularly appealed to the
people on former occasions. There
were Indians and rough riders here
not only when Roosevelt was inaugu
rated, but when he went out of Office
and was succeeded by William H.
Taft. The parade. however. in honor
of Mr.. Wilson seemed to be pictur-
esque enough in its features to appeal
to the multitudes. They certainly
made noise enough over 1t.

BY GEORGE CLINTON.

Washing ton, March 4.-The "JefYer-
sonian simplicity" which Woodrow
Wilson requested should be observed
In every detail of his Inauguration as
president did not apply to the inaugu-
raj parade. for It was as elaborate as
such an affair usually Is. The people
wanted 1t so, and they showed their
appreciation OF the spectacle by turn
ing out by the hundred thousand and
cheering wildly as the marchsrs pass
ed with bands playing loudly and flags
waving bravely.
The newly inaugurated president re-
viewed the procession and smiled his
approval as he returned the salutes OF
the commanding officers. for all the
glittering show had been arranged in
his honor. Pennsylvania avenue. from
the capitol to the White House. was
full OF color, music and movement.
People Enjoy the Sight.
The inhibition of the inaugural ball
and of the planned public reception at
the capitol had no effect as a bar to
the attendance at this ceremony OF
changing presidents. Masses were here
to see, and other masses were here to
march. There was a greater demon
stration while the procession was pass
ing than there was four years ago.
Victory had come to party which
had known nothing like victory for a
good many years. The Joy OF posses
sion found expression in steady and
abundantly noisy acclaim.
President Taft and President-elect
Wilson were escorted down the ave-
nue. by the National Guard troop OF
cavalry Of Essex county. New Jersey.

that they once held membership in

and all the minor ofncials Of govern
ment and those privileged to witness

H. Taft and Woodrow Wilson, preced-
ed by the sergeantat-arms and the

the senate chamber. They were fol-
lowed Immediately by vice-President-
elect Thomas r. Marshall, leaning
upon the arm Of the president pro

took his place as presiding officer OF

President Taft and President-elect

two members of the congressional

White House to the capitol and in the
carriage with him were the senate's

of Georgia, and three members of the
congressional committee Of arrange
ments.
The vice-president-elect took the
oath Just before noon in accordance
with custom and prior to its taking
by the president-elect. Every arrange
