GREAT SPECTACULAR EVENT
Lnrp-st (iutlirring of Warships As
sembled in History of the
World.
There was commenced In New
York Saturday, September 25, an
eight-day celebration In commem
oration of the discovery of the Hud
son river 300 years ago and the an
niversary of the first steamboat
which went up the river 100 years
ago. These two Important events
have been commemorated In a man
ner which surpassed all other events
celebrated In modern tlriies. Great
preparations having been made and
all the governments of the earth
having been invited to participate, it
was r u It natural that the celebra
tion should be on a scale that would
be a credit to I he nation, and especi
ally to tho state of New York. There
were 5,000,000 people who witnessed
the opening ceremony, 2,000,000
were stationed on the west side of
the city facing the Hudson river
from the liallery to Spytcn Duyvil
creek; 2,000,000 more on the New
Jersey side of the river extending
from Jersey City to a point on the
Palisades, and 1,000,000 an the
water front of lower lirooklyn. These
millions occupied every point of vant
nge find were deeply Interested in the
historic events of 300 years ago, and
the event of 200 years later.
Long before the official cere
monies of the first day of the Hud
son -Fulton celebration were to begin,
500 ships running from ocean liner
to the pert little motorboat, waited
restlessly at their moorings in the
lower bay for the signal that would
start them on a gay procession about
the 10 miles of warships at anchor
In I he Hudson. Kvery craft was
decked with flags and bunting, and
every band In the vicinity of New
York had been engaged to provide
music for the hundreds of thousands
of persons who were to make the cir
cuit of the International armada on
those boats.
A thousand v csscls Is what thev

Fulton themselves would have been
puzzled to tell the difference.
One hundred and twenty steam
boats ami ferryboats, 7a steamboats,
7a motor boats.
Three (hundred tugs and steam
lighters.
Four hundred sailing craft and
small launches.
All but the greatest ami the least
of these craft gathered In the upper
bay for the parade that escorted the
Half Moon and the Clermont up the
Hudson,
The warships remained nt their
anchorages between Forty-fourth
and Twenty-second streets, while the
sail boats and the launches took posi
tion along tho route where they
could afford those nhonrd the best
view of the spectacle.
The Nuviil Pageant.
The day's great spectacle, not
counting tho prim Hues of warships
In the North river, was the assembl
ing of the naval pageant In the upper
bay. Ret ween 10 and 11 o'clock the
sijuadron of four American cruisers
and five submarines assigned to es
cort the Half Moon and the Cler
mont, met In the Kill Von Kult, be
tween StMen Island and the New
,terev shore. The Clermont was tow
ed from Its nUht anchorage ;it

they fell into line.
The assemblage of the f.00 or
more boats that followed Hudson's
and Fulton's craft up the river oc
cupied the whole morning, ann It was
not until after 1 o'clock that fhe
mass straightened out Into some
thing like procession formation. ,
First came police and scout and
patrol boats and torpedoes, then the
Half Moon and Clermont with their
Immediate escort, then, In order, the
five squadrons or steam merchant
craft and the ferryboats, steam
craft, motor boats, tugs and steam j
lighters and sailing craft.
The boats moved up the Hudson
in double line at a speed of eight
miles an hour, but such was the num
ber of participants that the column
was nearly 15 miles long. When the
Half Moon and the Clermont reach
ed the I'nlted Stales ship Newport,
which marked the southern end of
the line of warships at Forty-fourth
street, they passed up on the New
York side of the river, while the
other vessels kept on between the
men-of-war and the New Jersey
shore.
Kigbt Days of Pageantry.
For the next eight, days the people
of New York and visitors from all
parts of the world witnessed a series
of pageants surpassing anything
hitherto attempted in the way of his
toric commemoration. The crowning
attainments of the 29th century
were exhibited to set off those of tin
past. Thn leviathans of the world's
navies had gathered to honor the
two little ships that made history one
and three centuries ago. About the
waters, where SO warships were at
anchor, the conquerors of the air ex
hibited their mastery. Airship flights,
naval parades, military parades and
historical pageants all contributed to
the anniversary, Kvery important
nation was represented.
At 10 o'clock Saturday morning
the Half Moon and the Clermont -accurate
reproductions of the little
Dutch shallop In which an Knpli.-h
master and a mixed crew first a
(ended tin1 Hudson river from .Man
hattan Island to Albany, and of ii'.'
ungainly monster, belching smoke
and hissing vapor, In which Robert
Fulton, an American Inventor, made
the same distance for the first time
propelled by steam, moved from their
inlet anchorage In the lee of Staten
Island to salute the vast bulk of the
assembled American and foreign
'hips of war In the lower harbor.
Millions of Children Take Part.
Kdneatlonal emphasis was laid on
all the more spectacular features of
the celebration by arranging that
wherever possible the 1 .nOil.iin'i
school children of Greater New York
had a part In them, and I' was the
design of the promoters throughout
to arrange their displays in such
wise that they might ho seen by the
largest number of persons.
On Friday, October 1. there was
a junction of the up-sNito and New
Yoik City divisions of the celebra
tion, when the lesser of the ships of
war escorted the Clermont and the
Half Moon to Newburg, where they
were turned over to the authorities
from Albany. I hiring the follow ing
week, beginning October 3. there will
be dedicatory, historic and spectular
exercises nt various points between
New York and Cohoes.

l'all Rains Have Come.
Rain commenced falling last Fri
day night but in such moderation
that the parched earth was only wet
down two and a half to three inches.
The dust was laid, but, no other per
ceptible good was accomplished ex
cept that tho average citizen was
highly pleased with even a moderate
downpour. It was in every mind
the precursor of more rain and fall
plowing. '1 11 1 s year we need early
rain so as to enable the clearing of
land to go forward, likewise the con
struction of irrigation, stump and
brush pulling, plowing for fall crops
and the planting of certain fruit
trees. All these win I,,, j,, order if
it will rain more abundantly, so let
the moisture come, not only In great
drops, but in regular showers to
bless the earth and man.
On the mountain let it roar,
Down the hillside let it pour.
