The most brilliant and imposing in auguration which the citizens ol Washington have ever piepared has passed into the history of the repub anil Roosevelt lie, and Theodore Charles Warren Fairbanks have been Installed as president and vice presi dent of the United States for the next four years. It was .the first national inauguration since the civil war. The houth sent up its warriors and its state officials. Men who fought each other for years under different flags; men with who fought together in the 8paln under one flag; executive officers of the states who upheld the stars and bars, and those who stood for the flag of the Union, marched together In review before their common president, a soldier of the republic. Fully 200,000 visitors gazed with wonder and enthusiasm at the districts handiwork for honoring its wr president. The parade was the most magnificent ever known The Grand Army Df the Republic, as is its habit, Insisted on acting as the presidents escort, and the presidents rate of progress to the capital was reduced to the pathetic pace of men who were fast the scripture limit of life. But the delay had Its compensations. Many thousands had opportunity to jee and greet the president as his cortege slowly passed along the mile from the White House to Capitol hill, where congress was concluding its labors. The oath of office was administered to President Roosevelt by Chief Jus-tlcFuller, and after taking the oath the president delivered his Inaugural address, which surprised his hearers by its brevity. After the conclusion of the address, the president, accompanied by his escort and followed by troops and civilian paraders, started for the White House. It was the most perfect column that ever marched In an inaugural parade, though Its numbers were less. General Chaffee had insisted that a brigade of the national guard from each state should be the maximum representation. The Ninth cavalry, that splendid colored reginfnt, received marked attention. The crowds went wild over the section of rough riders. The scouts and "the Porto Rico battalion excited intense Interest. The brigade of cadet battalions from many states, organized by General Chaffee, attracted universal attention and received unbounded applause. The civic grand division ot eight brigades In three divisions, made up of over fifty organizations, was in every respect better organized than ever before. Turning from the pageant of the day, the doubled population of the city disposed Itself for the three Imposing spectacles of the night, the ball; the fireworks on the white lot, and the dakzllng street decorations. In the presence of as many of bis fellow citizens as could be crowded into the senate chamber, Charles Warren Fairbanks was at high noon Inducted into the office of of the United States. The ceremony was quickly followed by the final adjournment of the senate of the congress, the beginning of a special session, an address by the vice president and the swearing into office of almost a third of the membership of the senate.
