He halted a moment be- neath the clock at the entrance, drew himself up until he seemed a foot taller and marched down the aisle erect and with the bearing of a soldier. He ace knowledged the round of applause that reeted him, and smiled up at the gal- ory, where his wife and children sat, The president, who was the last to en- ter, got an even more enthusiastic re- ception. He never looked better and never seemed more graceful and at ease, When the ceremony in the senate, a little tedious despite its brilliancy, was over, the floor and gallaries emptied into the corridors, through which the ople jostled and squeezed Into the ro- unda and out onto the great platform fed from the east portico of the pitol building.

The regulars, who in the old days before the Spanish war would have received scant atten tion, got an ovation from one end of the line to the other. The srowds fairly yose at the Jack tars rolling along with their sword bayonets like a thicket of steel above them Admiral Dewey, Gen, Miles, Gen. "Joe" Wheeler and many other officers who came into prominence during the Spanish war were lionized, The crowds went wild over the Weat Point and Annapolis endets, marching with clockwork precision, and the rough riders upon thelr bronchos, The Porto Rican regiment, the Richmond Greys, in Confederate grey, and the college students from the principal uni- versitios set the evowds off again and again. The national guard of the sev- eral states made a brilliant showing. and many of the governors riding with their stalls were overwhelmed with en- thusiaam.
