TAKING TH OATH OF OFFICE. AddreM of the PCenlflen and tho Tarails Following It. In front of the Senate wing of tho Capitol Is erected the huge stand on which the distinguished crowd la gath ered, and where the President takes tho After lunchoon the President ana tht ex-Vlne-PrMldcnt . loft the Capi tol by the Somite entrance, followed by the Vice-President and ex-Vlce-Presl-don, and tho Cornhilttoo of Arrange tnonts, and proccedod at once to the carriages awaiting them. President Mc Klnloy, during this rkle, occupied the seat of honor In tho first carriage, and on his loft was seated ex-Preal-dent Cleveland, while in the second carriage Vice-President Hobart had ex-Vlce-Prefildcnt Stevenson on his loft. As soon aa they were seated, the order for the march was given and tho nroceslon moved lip the avenue. Following the Presidential party came the groat parade. Instead of go ing to the White House, as In former years, tho President was driven at once to the reviewing stand In front or tne White House and the procession filed by. Ex-President Cleveland d'd not rq to the Btand, but was driven to tho White House, where he was met by Mrs. Cleveland. Among the special aids appointed by General Porter as members of the Grand Marshal's staff are four sons and ono grandson of former Presidents of the United States. Tho grandson la Ulysses S. Grant, thlrdT a son of Police Commissioner Grant, and tho sons of former Presidents are Webb C. Hayes, Harry A. Garfield. Chester A. Arthur and Russell Harrison.

It Is an Impressive, but simple iffair, and after the multitude has ceas ed cheering, President McKlnley advanced to the front of the stand, and beside him was Chief Justice Fuller, who administered the oath of office. McKlnley has always prided himself on his consistency, and he carried Into bis Inaugural speech the plain, con servative sentiments which ho has pro claimed for years In Corfgress and on :he stump. He is a mild-mannered man, who ou jerves tho amenities, and there was no rancor, no abuse of Cleveland's admin istration, no reflection on Bryan and line Democracy. Ever and always, Wil liam McKlnley has avoided harsh criticism. President McKinley's attack on Dem- ocratlc Ideas was in mild language, but nnnn tho loan pmnhatlo In meanlntt. He did not draw a happy picture ot busl 11.111 mrwiuinriH He said that our for eign trade has been diminished and our domestic trade has suffered incalculable ir.ua - rvinflflpnee in home enterprises lias almost wholly disappeared.

II ANN A. farmer has also suffered greatly be cause those who constitute it, the great army of American wage earners, are without the work and wages they for merly had. Tho inaa of tmrnlntr rjower alone in this country in the past three years, he asserted Is sufficient to have produced our unfortunate business situation. If our labor were well employed and em played at as remunerative wages as in 1892, in a few months every farmer In the land would feel the glad change in the increased demand for his products and in the better prices which he would receive. Mr. McKlnley declared that we are not a nation of classes. He eulogized the seventy millions under his rule as Ktunlv. honorable Deople, who will never be dominated by demagogues. .Washington and Webster wereiuoted ma giving similar views warning the workingmen against the play of paB lons and the destruction of liberty fruits In the name ot liberty. Silver was given very friendly assur ances. Free coinage was not approved, but a demand for a double standard with international concurrence was earnestly made. Civil service reform was declared the position of the party for twenty-four years past. President McKlnley congratulated the country that sectional lines no longer exist. He insisted that the era of reconciliation, so long and earnestly desired by General Grant, and many other great leaders, north and south has happily come and the feeling of dls. trust and hostility between the sec tions Is everywhere vanishing, never to return. Nothing is better calculated to give strength to the nation at homes Increase power and Inlluence abroau, and add to the permanency and security of free institutions than the restoration of cordial relations between the people of all sections and parts of a beloved country. The resident's remarks on Cuba were not Inflammatory, but they warned Bpaln without giving any material con solation to the Insurgents. He did not advise a recognition of tho belligerency of the Cuban republic, but he Indicated i the feeling of this nation that Bpaln does not trample on the rights of Ameri can citizens. On all else but that topic the inaugural remarks on Cuba were conservative. No foreigners should come In who do not mean to bocome citizens or who belong ' to the debased and criminal classes of other lands. AgalnBt all who make war on our Institutions the gates must bj closed. A fervent appeal for liberal pensions and a promise to right the wrongs committed by the Uleve land administration was made. The address was delivered In a voice that was distinctly heard at a consld arable dlitance from the stand, and ' this, notwithstanding much confusion After he has finished his remarks, the procession was roformod, and returned to the Eenate chamber. The President and ex-Prasldent, however, did not enter tho Senate, but went at once to the President's room. HltS. M K1NLEY. see the parade. At 3 o'clock the Presi dent took his place on the White House grand stand to review the parade, and for hours after that and until dusk he returned tho salutes of the thousands of marching mem that filed past him. It was nearly 7 o'clock beforo the Pres ident was allowed to retire to the Whlta House, where he took his first :meal as Chief Executive of this great nation. But ho was not allowed to tarry over this feast, for he had to dress and prepare to go to the Inaugural ball. He was expected to arrive there shortly after 9 o'clock, and the Committee oi Escort waited upon him anl conveyed the party In carriages to tho Pension building, where tho ball was held. On his n.Tival at the entrance he was met by tho Reception Committee, which conducted him on tho tour around tho ball room, and then to tho rooms reserved for his use In the first balcony. Here the President and Mrs. McKlnley, Vice-President Hobart and Mrs. Hobart held a reception. Be fore midnight the party was ob liged once more to descend to the floor, and advance In procession across the great dancing floor to the rooms where the Presidential party were served with supper. MllS. HANNA. In tho beautiful Illumination of the Pension building fifty arc lights and 8,700 incandescent burners were used. Ono of the features of the ballroom la an American flag in colors, composed of Incandescent lamps. Uy means ot a mechanical contrivance tho effect of waving Is given. Hundreds of canary birds In cages, -guaranteed to sing, des pite electric brilliancy and crowds, was another foaturo of tho ballroom dec orations. For tho last month or more Proprie tor Burch, at the Ebbitt House, has been preparing the apartments to be oc cupied by Major McKinley and his par ty. During his Congressional life tho President-elect lived at the Ebbitt House, occupying a modest suite of apartments on the third floor of that well-known hostelry. Mr. uurcn, re memberlng, this determined to fix up the old rooms and let them be a part of the floor taken by the Presidential party. So it happened that Major and Mrs. McKinley occupy their old rooms, but they are so changed and beautified that the McKlnleys hardly recognized them. They look out on fourieeuiu street. As there are some fifty or sixty In the immediate party, almost tho entire floor is given over to them. The Kxpenses of Inauguration. The expenditures of all kinds made nncessarv In preparations loading to the naeeant of March 4 and the follow ine festivities in the shape of the in a ii sural ball, supper and promenade. concerts were not less than $50,000, and will vary between that figure and $75,000. VegetuMe and Animal Ufa round al tM .Greatest Deptns. Until a sihort tlm ago it was bcller- ed that at great depths in the ocean no- organic life could exist, lor no hbuj penetrates there and the pressure ot the water Is very greax. of fact the pressure Is so great that or dinary articles of wood are compressed to half their original size If lowered to a depth of 3,000 feet. If a human be ing were suddenly exposed to the pres sure ot water at that depth he would be compressed to the thickness of pa per. A diver at the depth of 10,000 feet would have a weight upon him equal to several hundred of the greatest and heaviest locomotives. There are de pressions very much deeper, nowev", and soundings have bei-n made estab lishing depths of more Mian 22,000 feet near the island of St. Thomas, In the Atlantic, and ot almost 27,000 feet, near the Japanese coast. The pressure of a column of water of this height Is slm i .i,,nnnniia ntlll It has been shown that there Is organic life even there. Of course plants or living beings at this level are differently organized from those in higher region of tho ocean, but they exist In Infinitely large num bers as everywhere else In the ocean, and tho deeper one goes the more curl na o,v i.ho formations of both plants and animals. Ureat forests of seaweeds cover the bottom of the ocean and reach from tho greatest depths to the surSace. In these forests there is life more diversified than in the primeval forests of tho tropics. Spiders and worm-like animate of enormous Bizo, Infusorlae, crabs, sea urchins, encns, crustaceans, star nsn, turtles anu mil lions of other living beings of all kinds find their food In the uqeaiiy vanou plant life of tho deep sea. All the fish of the great depths In the ocean must lw varv voracious, for tncy aii umo wide moutihs, dangerous toetn anu an Immense stomach. Deep sea fish which were brought up in the deep sea drag net Invented by Prince Albert of Mo naco, were found to contain in tneir stomach animate almost as big as them selves. A curious circumstance in aeop sea fish Is that none of these have ever been brought up alive. In consequence of the change In pressure tne intestines of those fish are forced out of their moutihs. Recent deep-sea explorations reveal the fact that the ocean still con tains Immeasurable treasures, which await development and utilization by human inventiveness.

It la confidently expected by the ex ecutive, committee In charge of the ar rangemonts that the receipts from all sources coming Into the hands as rev enue will not be far short of ?S0,00U, This sum will be realized by the sale jf privileges, ball tickets and other con cessions. As presidential inaugurations have grown more and more elaborate the committee has found a continually aiminishing surplus remaining after a settlement of all accounts. - It nas De come the custom to devote the exceaa of receipts over expenditures to charit able purposes in the District of Columbia. The committee having in charge the Inauguration of Mr. Cleveland four years ago was left with but ?3,000 when all expenses had been adjusted. The chief source of revenue to the committee arises from the sale of tick ets to the inaugural ball. No compli mentary tickets are Issued. Each por son attending must pay $5 for the priv liege. In this way, if 10,u0') people at tend, the receipts from that source alone will reach 5U,uuu. The largest single item of expense to ho met by the committee la lor uec orating the inaugural ballroom. For this work the total sum of 15,000 will ha exDended. Three separate coiurac tors will have charge of the decora tions Ono will furnish the flowers, nih..i. th tauntins: and a third the tfctivsi"1-' "- electric lights. A beautiful souvenir, prepared at the ovnense of the committee, was given f,-o to each Diirchosar of a ball tlckot. These souvenirs wore not offered for sale and the only manner In which they can be obtalnod is by purcnasing ticket. The grand stand In tho White House rather ambitious architectural rnntrlvance. was faced by tho Mark occunviug the entire lnne-th of Lafayette Square. Thoy rolled it tho Mark Ilanna eland bo- cause Mr. Hauna had engaged ?50 seats on that stand for tho use of members of tho National Committee and tholr families. Flirting aa Fine Art. Tha science of society amounts to lit- dle true art unless a certain genius goes with the knowledge; and wlio will de ny that there is a certain natural gm. for social inlluence, as onere ih " " beautiful arts? Some persona nave a rara social witchery who have not any other form of genius, and some women of very moderate abilities in omer re spects, have an art of pleasing that amounts to fascination. una wuiua.i In famous attire will gather a great crowd of notables In a granu nonse and give them a great supper, and all Bhall 'be fiat ana dun; wane botho wiu some little body, without any flashy costume or parade, and even without rare beauty, will entertain ner circie of guests In a charming way of her own, and make them all at home wun her and each ot'her. She plays upon their various tempers and traits and as sociations as a master nana piays up on the harp or piano. I have some times thought that womanly charm and perhaps what even in tho best sense is called flirting, could be made one of the fine arts, and consecrated to charity, and even to religion. That bright girl takes that 'half dozen strip lings in hand, and touches each In turn with playful grace, until they are will ing captives to her spell, and ready to buy her pincushions or watch chains at the fair, or go to her church and wor ohin h.v her -nraver-lbook. There is a line, Indeed, beyond wnich this flirting ceases to be a fine art, and becomes ouite business-like and utilitarian, a practical operation in making a mar ket and .bagging a husband a useful but not always ideal result Yet, aa the world goes, a great deal of true missionary work Is done by charming women in managing men in an artistic and legitimate way, and tne virgin Mary 'has not all the work of such In tercession in her hands or In her eyes, although Henry Heine naugihtily called her the counter girl or the iatnouc church, Who won over tho Goths and vandals. , soum ABKIVI, am 7.KI 7.

The wihole domnlns, the large timber, nd the ancient families survive, but the raven has vanlsdied, says a writer In Longman's Magazine. It occasional ly takes a young rabixt. out tne nu man ravens of Somerset, to wit, the nicn and boys who have as little right to the rabbits do the ar.me. I do not suppose that in this way fewer than ten to twenty thousand rsi'DUs are annual ly "picked u;i," or "poftciiea it any duo likes that word Vc tor in tthe ooun- ty. Probably a larger number, 'ine existence of a pair ot rabbits on an es tate of ten to twenty or forty thousand acres would not add much to the loss. No doubt the raven kills other crea tures that are presented for sport, but It does not appear that Its extermina tion 'has Improved things in Somerset. Thirty years ago, when iblack game was more plentiful than it Is now, the raven was to be met with throughout tho county, and was aibundant on Ex moor and the Quantooks. The old headkeeper on the forest of Exmoot told me that when he took the place, twenty-five yeare ago, ravens, carrion crows, buazai'ds and hawks of various kinds were abundant, and that the war he had waged against them for a quar ter of a century 'had well-nigh extir pated all these species. Ho had kept a careful record of all birds killed, noting ho Riificip.s In every case, as he wa paid for all, but the reward varied, th . largest sura being given for the largest birds rave.ni and buzaards.
