still disturbing the ears of a city
when cheering down the line of the
parade route announced the fact that
| HI WAS COMING! And as the Gov
ernor's train of motors approached
along the line the cheering broke out
afresh.
Then, not so long afterward, the
music of the bands told that the pro-
cession was under way.
Eyes Right"
| AS the right of the line came
abreast of the reviewing stand and
the new Governor stood at attention,
flags dipped, swords flashed and hun
dreds of faces turned a white blur to-
ward the commander-in-ch chief as OFF,
GERS beloved eyes right"
| AS each company and each band
/ filed past the stands applauded and
! the Governor smiled his apprecia-
tion, too. So the marchers had taste
ever as they started, of what was COM
| ing all along the line.
In many, many years Harrisburg
and it's guests will remember the bands
| that played at Governor Brumbaugh' $
Inauguration. Some months back the
| city entertained great many thou
sands of flremen and they had some
| bands, too. But the thirty-siX musi-
route yesterday were of the kind that
played in such a way that you just
couldn't make your feet behave.
When Feet Misbehaye TO "Iipperary"
With one of the Philadelphia clubs
there came to town a real crowd OF
killed Scotch bagpipers. And when
the band ahead struck up "Tipperary
and the bagpipers played along, take
it from the segment of the crowd that
happened TO be nearby when Tippe-
lrary" accompanied on the bagpipes
was tickling the toes Of marchers and
spectators-someho ii didn't seem
such a long long way to Tipperary.
The folks from m G's" home town
and round about were out in force,
too-1in the crowds certainly but very.
INery much in evidence in the line of
the parade. For instance there was
the Markelburg band which headed
ithe Huntington Clubs. That part OF
the parade incidentally, got some
cheers on the side from the crowds
ernor Brumbaugh and all his folks get
into their blood.
From the Old Home Town
"Say, mister" called out an urchin
as the Huntington delegation got un-
der way, when v go past the review
in stand, git your band t'play, Gee,
but amt it great to meet friend from
your home town. That'll make i'm
smile"
Whether that is what the band play
ed or not is neither here nor there;
Brumbaugh grinned an extra broad
grin as the flags and the folks from
home, went marching by.

chief of staff rode Captain Hoy and

marshaled by William S. Ware of Phil
adelphia and it included the crack
Union Republican Club with more
than 500 marching men, and the First
and Third regiment bands of the

| had a chance to see in those ranks
taller men than it has seen in many
a day. The Chester county delegation
comprised nearly 200 marchers, and
then there were the Huntingdon,
Lackawanna county club delegations
of 400 to 500 more. Harrisburg was
equally represented by the Harrisburg
IRepublican Club with the Steelton

pendent Social Club with the Italian

two hundred and sixty odd marchers
respectively: The Hasset Club; the

six men and the Steelton Silver Cornet
Band and finally the crack South
Philadelphia Republican Club organi-
Zation with more than 500 men in
