a majestic choral performed by trumpet

Crowds of people assembled early in
the morning and took tip positions from
which to view the royal procession to
the Nieukirk, an edifice that, in spite of
its name, is 400 years old. By 10 o’clook
the Damplata presented a magnificent
spectacle.

Gorgeous In Antique Costumes.
The procession was headed by the
kings of arms, with the heralds in their
tergeous antique costumes and bearing
ong trumpets adorned with pendant
flags. Bat all the splendor of the royal
retinue Was overlooked bf the vast
crowds of people, whose eyes were
turned upon the central figure of ibis
mpoeing fnnoflon—the young queen,
on foot, amidst the people, decked with
ill the emblems of royalty. At her
aead wae a diadem of diamonds, crown
shaped. Her robe was of white silk,
with a long train, under a mantle of
rich red velvet, on whloh the lions of
Nassau wete displayed in gold embroid
ery. The mantle was bordered with
ermine.
The sword of state was carried before
the youug queen by a general.
Her majesty carried herself with
grace and fortitude, but her blanched
cheekB were evidence of the profound
emotion inspired by the greatuess of the
Occasion.
Her majesty proceeded to the church,
which, in the meanwhile, had been
filled with brilliantly robed ladies nnd
members of the diplomatic corps. The
interior of the ohnroh disclosed a mag
nificent wealth of drapery, banners,
Calms and flowers. In front of the
clwnpel was the throne of gorgeous
crimson And geld velvet, with the
crown, orb, scoptre and sword occupying
stools.
On the right of the throne were the
ox the royal families and on

Aunual Parade Tomorrow.
Cincinnati, Sept. (I.—Tho thirty-seo-
ond annual encampment of the Grand
Army of the Ropublic is a success so far
as attoudauce is concerned, even for
those national events which nro phe-
nominal for crowds. Opening day, yes
terday, surpassed expectations as well as
Sunday, on tho arrivals, but before the
21 guns were fired at sunrise today at
Camp Sherman tho depots were crowded
with more arrivals. Tho posts arrived
in bodies today and were escorted to
their qnartors by local posts. Tho
special trains arrived faster than they
could be handled by the terminals in
the early hours and tho rush continued
so that later trains were stopped at
Camp Sherman and other suburban
points where slroet cars and other trans
portation had been provided.
There is a capacity of 16,000 in the
tents at Camp Sherman and it is as well
filled as the smaller camps, but the
committee on qnartors has unlimited
quarters yet in residences and other
places. The docorations are unusually
elaborate, the electric light designs in
the public squares nud at street inter
sections surpassing even tho finest
Structures of expositions, and the enter
tainment is equally lavish. This was
naval day and tomorrow is army day,
to be followed on Thursduy by the
peace jubilee. The National Naval as
sociation gave a grand parade this
morning. Tomorrow morning tho G.
A. R. men give their aunual parade and
on Thursday the civic and industrial
parade occurs.
After their parade today the naval
veterans wore entertained on steam
boats and they captured Coney Island.
The features of tuo day wore the regi
mental brigade and other reunions, nt
which the old comrades got closer to
gether than on any other occasions.
There were demonstrations nnd the ar
rival of several of the staff department
commanders nnd govomors and their
staffs. Tho citizens also tondored re
ceptions to Conimnnlfor-ln Obiof Oobfn,
Rear Admiral Kelley, Mrs. S. J. Mar
tin, president of the W. R. C.; Mrs.
Flora M. Davey, president of the Ladies
of the G. A. R.; Mrs. Jennie Laird,
president of tho National Association of
tho Ladies of the Naval Veterans,-and
others.
The parado required an hour 6r more
to pass a givqu point and was every
where watchsd by crowds of doeply iq.
terested spectators. Tho dramatic ef
fect of the arrangement of the divisi i
was tho occasion for mnch comment,
First in honor came the veterans of the
civil war—the men who manned the
vessels in our unique navy and tho
thinner ranks of the ex-prisoners of
that war. The spectators could not
fail to bo impressed with a sad feeling
that they wero looking upon a body of
Sion whose days of marching must soon
eud. Tottsring limbs were bearing
sturdy hearts fuller than over with love
for tho flag whoso glory had bean mag
nified by thoir deeds, but it was pain
fully apparent that tlieir ranks wore
thinning and that their deeds wore soon
to bo only memories.
The contest for commander-in-chief
has become much more complicated by
the arrival of a largo delegation from
New York, headed by Corporal Tanner
in support of Colonel John O. Shotts of
Yonkers. This not only divides the vote
of tho department of Now York against
Colonel A. D. Shaw of Watortowu, N.
Y., but it also divides the vote of other
eastern departments that were expected
to be solid for Shaw.
A letter was received today from
President MoKinley sfo.tihg that public
businoss would prevent him and Mrs.
McKinley from attending the euoa'mp
ment this week. The we&thCr hqs been
very pleasant today, after the rains pf
last night, and still cooler wqathqr is in
the predictions for this locality tomor
row, when the big parade takes place.

Georgia and Alabama Troops.
The war department on Saturday is
sued an order mustering out a large
number of troops. At the same time
orders were issued transferring 13 rogi
monts from state camps to various
points of mobilization throughout the
country. It is believed those troops
will bo kept until -nest spring. Adjut
ant General Corbin said that probably
few if any additional troops would bo

retained are the Third Georgia and the
Third Alabama regiments.
Pando Arrives In New York.
General Pando left Havana the latter
part of last week nnd it was reported
that he carried with him 12,000,000
francs which ho would tako to. Spain.
This monoy was said to haye been col
lected by him from Spanish sympathiz
ers in Mexico and South America. He
arrived in New York Sunday afternoon,
but had no money so far as could be
ascertained. Asked for his opinion- of
the war ho said:
Why, there has been no war. There
are 200,000 soldier4 in Cuba who have
not seen an Americau soldier. My opin
ion is,” General Pando continued, “that
the Spanish and American soldiers were
simply, inveigled into a wav by the poli
ticians of the two countries. The poli
ticians made fools of the soldiers.”
Washington, Sept. 4.—In this dis
course Dr. Talmage changes our lifo-
timo from n meaningless generality to
practical helpfulness to the people now
living; text, Ants xiii, 80, “David,
after ho had served his own genorntion
by tho will of God, fell on sleep.”
Thnt is a text which has for a long
limo been running through my mind.
SeiniiMtwriitWtrii time to be bom ns woll
ap a time to dio, a eradlo as woll as a
grave. David, cowboy and stone slinger
and fighter and dramatist and blank
verso writer and prophet, did his best
for the pooplo of his time, nud thon
wont and laid down on the southern
hill of Jerusalem in that sound slum
ber which nothing but nn nrchaugolio
blast enn startle. “David, aftor ho had
served his own genorntion by the will
of God, fell on-sleep.” It was his own
generation thnt lio.hnd Served—that is,
the people living nt the t.irno ho lived.
And have you over thought that our re
sponsibilities nro chiofly with tho peo-
pln now wnlking nbrenstof us? There
artf about four generations to a contury
now, hut in olden time lifo was lnngor,
nnd there was perhaps only ono gouora-
tiou to a century. Taking theso facts
into the calculation, I make a rough
guoss and say that there have been nt
least lf!0 generations of tho human fam
ily. With reforonco to them we havo
no responsibility. Wo cannot teach
thorn, wo cannot oorrect thoir mistakes,
wo cannot soothe their sorrows, we can
not heal their woundB. Their sopulohors
are denf and dumb to nny thiug wo might
say to them. Tho last regiment of thnt
great army has passed out of sight. We
might halloo as loud us wo could, not
ono of them would avert his head to
sco what Wo wanted. I admit that I ani
in sympathy witli tho child whoso fa
ther had suddenly died, nnd who in her
little ovouiug prayer wanted to con
tinue to pray for Lor father, although
ho had gone into benven, nnd no more
needed her prayers, nnd, looking up into
her mother’s face, said: “Oh, mother,
I oannot leave him all out. Let mo say,
thank God that I had a good father
onco, so I enn keep him in my prayers. ”
But tho 180 generations liavo passed
off. Passed up. Passed down. Gono for-
over. Then there are generations to
come after our earthly existence has
ccaBOd. Wo shall not boo them. Wo
shall not hoar any of their voices. Wo
will tako no part in flibir convocations,
thoir ejections, tlieir revolutions, thoir
catastrophic^, thoir triumphs. Wo will
in nowiso affect the 180 generations
gone or tho 180 generations to como,
except ns from tho galleries of heaven
tho former generations look down
and rejoice nt our viotorios, or as
wo may by our bebnvior start iuflu-
enoes, good or bad, that shall roll on
through the advancing ages. But our
business is, like David, to servo our
own generation, tho pooplo now living,
thoso whoso lungs now breathe and
whoso hearts now bent, pud mark you,
it is not a silent procossioh, but moving.
It is u “forcod inarch” nt 24 miles a
day, each hour being a milo. Going
with that celerity, it has got to bo a
quick service on our part or no seryico
at all. Wo not only ennnot teach tho
180 generations past and will not soo
the 180 generations to coino, but this
generation now on tho stage will soon
ho off, and wo ourselves will ho off
with them. The fact is that you and 1
will have to start very rooh for onr
work or it will bo ironical and sarcastic
for any ono after our exit to say of us,
as it was said of David, “After be hud
served his own generation by the will
of God ho fell ou sleop. ”
Onr Own Generation.
Well, now, let us look around oar-
uestb', prayerfully, in a common sense
way and sco what we can do for our
own generation. First o'f all, let us see
to it that, ns far as wo can, .they havo
enough to eat. Tho human body is so
constituted that Ihroo times a duy the
body needs food as much as a lump
needs oil, ns much us a locomotive
needs fuel. To meet this want God has
giidled tho earth with apple orchards,
orango groves, wheatfields and oceans

the human family are now suffering
either for lack of food or the right Jtirid

tho greatest estates'of tpday have.lieen

populations of the earth—millions of
skulls. " .
