It was in contrast nevertheless, to the wedding of last November. There were no uniformed diplomats, no members of the Senate or House, or the Supreme Court. This was the wish of the bride and groom, carried out to the letter and except for an afternoon of gaiety among the young folks the day and evening moved along quietly and quickly. The ceremony started at 6 o'clock sharp and lasted but 15 minutes. The reception was brief, the wedding sup per was followed by a brief dance, and at 8 o'clock, the bride and groom had left, the wedding guests had de parted and the White House resumed its normal appearance, interrupted but a few hours.

Parade of Veterans. Thousands of enthusiastic citizens and visitors today loudly cheered sur vivors of the Confederate army who participated in their 24th annual pa rade. While not so picturesque as former parades, because only a few at tempted to march, the spectacle fur nished a thrilling sight to hundreds who saw the heroes for the first time . Veterans, maids and sponsors in nearly 2,000 automobiles, took part in the parade. All of the departmen tal officers of the three divisions were on horseback, as well as a detachment of Forrest's Cavalry. Mounts could not be obtained for a number of sur vivors of this noted troop. They as well as other veterans attempted the strain of the pace set by those mount ed and in automobiles. Rain fell just before time for the parade to begin. Participants and spectators were forc ed to rush for shelter. The downfall lasted only for a short while and bright sunshine prevailed during the greater part of the day. The weather was extremely warm. Papers with dispatches from Wash ington and Mexico City in regard to the situation were sold among the spectators as the parade passed through the. business section of the city.. Hearing the cry of the newsboys, many of the veterans took it up and aving battle-scarred Confederate flags, they shouted "On to Mexico." There were numerous ambulance calls during the progress of the pa rade, but all cases were reported by hospital authorities to be due to ex haustion. General Bennett H. Young, Commander-in-Chief , led the parade. Fourteen brass bands were scattered through the line of march. There were nearly 2,000 gaily decorated au tomobiles in the pageant. The commander-in-chief was follow ed by the trans-Mississippi Depart ment composed of veterans from Tex as, Arkansas, Missouri, Oklahoma and Western States . Next came the army of Virginia, consisting of sol diers from Maryland, Virginia, West Virginia, and Nxrth and South Carolina . The army of Tennes see was in third place.
