DEATH RATE HIGH Fifty-two People Died During the Past Month—Pneumonia Claims More Victims Than Any Other Pneumonia still reigns supreme'in its death dealing propensities and dur- ing the month of February caused more fatalities than any other single cause. Of the fifty-two deaths last month, ten resulted from this dread ‘winter ailment, According to the monthly record of vital statistics compiled at the affice of the city clerk, of the fifty-two per- sons who died, eighteen were under \one vear of age, showing the unusual- ly heavy infant mortality. Two of those who died were between the ages of one and five vears, eight were over sixty-five yvears of age and eight passed away at various institutions. Three of the tottal number who died were non-residents. The report on contributory causes follows: Grip, 1: tuberculasis, 6: cancer, 5; pneumonia, 10; diarrhoea, 1; accldent, 2: all other: causes, 2 All winter long the dread pne monia has held the highest mortality average, MACHINISTS’ BANQUET.

The nation’s fighting mén, men who have fought the nation’s wars &nd men who will be called to fight them in the future—all were represented ix the long line. Resplendent in goid and blue and grey, they marched in review before the président. Army, nhavy, national guard; cavalry, infan-. try, saijlors, soldiers, marines; veter-. ans of the Clyil. War, Boy Scouts and Red Cross workers; ‘all branches, past, present and prospective, ‘of ‘military servica any many .thousands of cits izens were represented in the line. Pennsylvania avenue was maswed with" people on each side of the marching column. Great reviewing stands had been placed at every van-: tage point along the line. framed groups of spectators, thousands more had places in bal- conies and on the, housetops. Be- tween _these “walls of humanity, marched the army of inauguraticn, to the confused mixture .of many noises—bugles blowing, bands pla:- ing, the rumble of artillery, the clac- ter of horses’ hoofs and the steady tramp of marchers. The procession moved at the close of thé inaugural ceremonies at - the Capitol,, swinging into . line behind President Wilson and Vice President Marshall as they returned ,to the ‘White House, and took their places to review the column. Four Divisions in Parade. The chief: officers' and divisions of the parade were as follows: Grand Marshal—Major Hugh L. Scott. First Grand Division—Soldiers, sail” ors and marines of the regular serv- ice under ¢ommand of Major-Gen- eral Tasker H. Bliss, ' Second ' Grand Division—National Guardsmen and cadet.schools under command of Brigadier General Wil- liam A. Mann, i Third Grand Division—Veéterans of the Grand Army of the Republic, United Spanish War Veterans, Army and Navy Union and patriatic so- cieties under Department Commander A. J. Huntoon. Fourth Grand Division—Civic and political organizations under com- mand of George R. Linkins. President Wilson was escorted by troops of the Second Cavalry from Fort Myer. Immediately after the president and -his escort came Vice President Marshall escorted. by the Black Horee Troops of Culver Military Academy. Then came the inaugural chairman, Robert N. ‘Harper and members of the senate and house in- augural committees. Thé West Poirt cadets had the next place in line. Long, straight lines of grey, they marched. These future officers of the American army, eyes front, heads high, plumes aflutter, flags rippling. Then followed the Annapolis mid- shipmen. Detachments from the regular army —few, because most of the regulars are on the Mexican horder—sailors from battleships, marines- and coast artillerymen and a brigade of 600 ap- prentice seamen from the Newport, R. L, training station completed tho first division. Right From the Border. Then marched the second- division, guardsmen fresh from the border, cadet schools .under arms, and other militia units. They came from many states, some in their full dress uni- form, others in the olive drab of field service, all showing' the hardening months of service. Notable in the line were the first brigade of the Mary- land guard; the District of Columbia guardsmen, newly returned from the border, cadets from Virginia Military institute, Virginia Polytechnic: insti- tute, Culver Military academy, Don- aldson Military school of Fayetteville, N. C., Washington High school, the cadet corps of the Maryland Agricul- tural college, and cadet organizations or troops from Ohio, South Carolina, Loulsiana, Georgia, and other states. More than 10,000 men, it was esti- mated, were in the first two divisions. Five companies of cadets from the Carlisle "Indian school, accompanied by an Indian band of forty pleces and thirty-five Indian girls of the school, marched next. Two independent military organiza- tions having places in the line were the Washington Infantry of Pitts- burgh, one of the oldest organizations in the country, 100 strong; and the Motor Armor Defense Association of Baltimore. The latter' brought with them five motor cycles, two side car machines armed with machine guns, two side-car caissons and one truck, all manned by about twenty mén. In the third division were veterans of the Civil war and the war with Spain, and patriotic ‘societies. Head- ing"this division were the Grand Army men, a corporal's guard by comparison with.the thousands -of their fellows who have- m.g&m aver| and General ‘Windows | { ham, in yenrs gone. by.

Of the many governors who rode in the procession, some were with the military organizations of their states and others, with their staffs, were in the fourth division. In this division also were the mayors of numerods towns and cities, dozens of political clhbs from smaller cities near and far. From the court 9f honor, at the White House, the president reviewed the line. The musical censor had seen to it that the bands played varied airs as they marched past, eliminating their tendency at other inauguration€ when passing the reviewing stand’to confine their selections to one of three airs, ‘‘Hail to the Chief,” “Dixie;,” and “Marching Through Georgia.” = Past a few blocks and there disbanded.

SEVERAL THOUSAND DOLLARS DONATED Morris Cohn Heads Tist of Contribu- tors to Jewish War Relief Fund With Gift of $250. ! At a mass meeting of Hebréws held in the Grammar schaol hall last even- ing beetween $4,600 and $5,000 was collected in a few minutes for the re- lief of the suffering Jews in the war zone. Many more pledges were re- ceeived. d Attorney Morris D. Saxe presided at the meeting and introduced Mayor George A. Quigley who, In a pa- triotic talk, said he feels sure that in a crisis the Jews in the United States will stand by the flag, the only flag in the world to which they can paint with any.. personal feeling. Michael Ginsberg, treasurer of the local relief committee, reported- $10.. 000 already sent abroad and Mr. Saxe explained that New Britain has given more than any other city in the state, and probably in New England. Attor- ney Isadore Herschfleld of New York, just returned from war-stricken Europe, gave some pathetic reminis- cences of conditions as he found them and Rev, Dr. Hdarrls Masliansky, also of New York, spoke in a similar vein. He addressed the assemblage in the Jadish tongue and advised them that although they have given before, their duty has not ended. Tt is their duty, he said, to divide their luxuries that their suffering brethern in Europe may have the bare necessities of life.
