C., Sept. 7?Labo Day passed off quietly this year, tt heat causing'many people to leav f the city for the day and others to re 1 main in doors. The annual parad took place down Pennsylvania Ave nue but hardly a ripple of the ao< *x * panyiua nci?u and demonstrntic " touched the residence section. 1 Washington is distinguished for it ' many different kinds of parade*-. B? fore the more Important ones oc< u: 1 the avenue is lines with scaffol l'.uj on which as many seats are bu'lt a 1 can possibly be crowded upon it Fre 5 quently teats from which to vie v th> * inaugural parade are en:4.<e.c< months in advance. Covered one are somewhat more expensive tnir open ones and many people purchasi the latter, as they are even more de * sirable than the closed ones providei * the weather Is propitious. But there 1 in lies the risk, for the Fourth u ' March is much more likely to be in clement than otherwise. 1 The last inaugural took place ii them ids? ; i a r g*ng blizzard, but u spite of the fact that traffic w? ar * parentis K*op,???l and telegraph wire were down, there was a vast <vn course of paonle In the Capital. A1 exposed seats were piled high wltl snow and a high wind was blowing but that did not keep the multitude off the avenue and many exponent of New England thrift were note< along the route, sitting bolt uprigh on tbe icy benches and persistent!; getting their money's worth, in spit* of the warring elements. Many death are directly traceable to inauguratioi weather, but the number of e?oape by persons who take the riBk and stll live seems miraculous, especially ii tbe case of children, vbo-aro thus posed. At least one President W11 liam Henry HarriBon, died as the -*t | suit of such exposure and the pri rate citizens who have gone home t< ' die from colds contracted dv.r:ri these festivities would form a groa army. The inaugural parade has mud - that is solemn and interesting in it } as also have the processions of Ma 1 Bons and other fraternal orgiaiza 1 tions who turn out to do honor t> their dead comrades.
