Greatest Crowd, Joyous in the Carni

in Streets, Theatres, Hotels
and Restaurants.
New Tork last nlirht took Its hat 1 to Woodrnw Wllion And gave a
cheer for the next President of the United States that wan heard all tho
way round the world. Thousands, tens of thousands of proplo crowded
the squares and streets where returns of the election were displayed. Thou
sands heard the nowa In cafes, In theatres, In hotels. In cheaper places of
amusement. A million people passed In review along upper llroadway. It
was one of New York's most wouderful nights.

Karlj In the evening white shafts ot
light pteroed the heavens frnm a score
of pinnacles. Ths flashes meant that
Wlson was elected. K-irlter than the
flMhes the tvds or ", i t- hsd set In

news centres. The great a waa flow

AH the way down on both sides of tho

Thousands upon thousands were gath

It was almost a terrible thing to get

In Madison Square It seemed hardly
losslble that one was still in the same

There they were, Just ths stune ss in

with the noise, the shouts, ttie tin
whistles, the tinhorns, the rattlers and
cowbells. The noise was swelled wllh
the honk, honk and aoul-rcpelllng, stom
aoh reaching sirens of ths automobiles.
Crowds went down that way and viewed
t'ho mura from tin: tops ot l'Ufth eveuuc
buses. The movl ig heads looked like
tabbing corks in a gre:it sea.
EVERY ONE KNEW EVERY ONE
ELSE IN THAT CROWD.
As on upper llroadway. It was u car
nival crowd. With confetti they show
ered one another. They tickled the un

They lauirhed and shouted and cheered
with greatest good nature. Btranjvors
made fire as wish family reunions.
I'retly ftiii wrre tickled and sli.ik.rud,

laughter went Joying on their way.

THEATRE CROWDS JOIN IN THE

When the thestre crowds were emptied
Into Broadway it was like a streak of
light breaking through a dark cloud.
The gowns of the women, the shimmer
of throats, the blaze of jewels and dis
play of discreet hosiery melted Into the
crowd like p!ece fitting Into a mosaic.
Beautiful women, adorned wllh wealth's
