wearied their brows devising ingenious orna-
ments, and tired their fingers in working them
into shape. 1t was also discouraging
to the committee, who had planned
an orderly, dignifed and tranquil
reception, with much studied and classic ora
tory. 1t was grand crush and jam, with
acres of people, all striving to be first, and
pldest kind of obstacles to their progress toward
an executive handshaking. President Hayes
stood on the steps amidst the vast throng of
people. and spoke just long enough to let them
know that he was there in the duskiness. In
response to call from the crowd, Gen. Sher-
excuse himself from making speech. There
was great lot of cheering at this
part OF the ceremonies, and craning
of necks, and perhaps little
swearing, and finally when the President and
Gen. Sherman stationed themselves in the ro.
tunda of the building to be presented to the
crowd there was rush up the steps and
doors, quite resistless and impossible to de-
scribe. The stream of people flowed ON and
on, and the crowd outside became larger and
larger, until the two distinguished men who
were the object of all this demonstration be-
gan to grow faint, and finally were compelled
to surrender to the pressure and suddenly steal
away by side entrance and drive off
in carriages to the fort, where Gen. Pope had
spread dinner for them to sit down to. 1t
should not be forgotten here to state that
j udge Robert G. Crozier made neat address
OF welcome to the President on the steps where
he was halted by the committee in charge. And
80 the reception of the President, which had
been elaborately prepared for by the patriotic
people of Leavenworth, ended for the day, and
the crowd went home tired and perspiring to
talk of the event of their lives. Most likely
they will never see live President, poor
things, unless they raise one.
The programme was a great success and re-

TOOK Il TUMBLE.

Young Lady Falls Into Deep Well,
but Miraculously Escapes Serious In
jury. :...--
OF profound and solemn verify the days
of miracles are not over, as witnessed by
the apparently miraculous escape from hor-
rible death of young lady named Lizzie
Sausen, residing at No. 16 Blanca street in
this city. About five o'clock on Friday after
noon the parents of the young lady were
horrifed by tho announcement that their
daughter had fallen into we'll and if not
killed by the fall she must certainly die by
drowning. A few minutes before the acci-
dent the young lady had gone to an open
we'll for the purpose of drawing bucket of
water, in the act of which she lost her bal
lance and was precipitated into the opening,
falling about ten feet with her feet downward.
The alarm was given by her brother, who
was at play in the yard at the time of the
accident, and realizing the emergency the
father of the girl procured rope and was at
the we'll before she had sunk into the water.
The rope was lowered, and with rare and
equal presence of mind the young lady was
drawn up, when it was discovered that she
had sustained several bruises about her head
and shoulders, aside from which she was un-
injured. DR.. Stamm was summoned, and
the injuries were pronounced wholly exter-
nal, and the escape is regarded as one of the
most singular on record.

GRANT.
Grant A,,s ong the Broker.

Grant Am osag the Brokers.
SAN FRANCISCO, Sept N.-Pine street, between
SAMSON and Montgomery, this morning, was
thronged with people in anticipation of visit of
Gen. Grant to the San Francisco stock exchange.
The hall and lobby of the building were densely
crowded, lane for entrance being kept open
by the police. The board room, which is a work
of art in itself, was tastefully decorated with
flowers, ferns and smilax. Business opened at
the usual hour, and soon after the general and
party arrived. As he made his appearance on
the floor, accompanied by E. P. Peckham, pres
ldent OF the exchange, ex-Gov. Low, young
Ulysses, and few others, the brokers and spec
tators greeted him with tum ultuous cheers, the
ladies who crowded the galleries joining in the
applause. MIR. Peckham introduced the guest
briefly, and after another round of cheers the
general and party were conducted to seat on
the right of the callers desk, under q display
Of silken flags, The call then continued, but
the market was rather dull and weak. and bro
kers were unable to treat their visitor to a
lively specimen of their style of business. At
half past II the guests withdrew, the crowd
which fingered outside cheering as the party
drove off.
After leaving the stock board to-day, Gen.
Grant lunched in the parlor of the Anglo Cali
fornlan bank, thence proceeded to the mint,
the officers of which showed the party through
the various departments. This evening he will
for the first time see "Pinafore," at the Cali
fornia theater, after which he will attend a
grand camp fire of veterans. Tomorrow be
will dine with j. @. Flood and Monday with
d. o. Mills, at Milebrae. During the day
Monday he will attend reception by the pub
lie school children at Woodward's garden, the
preparations being carefully made to insure
success of the affair, and the school board esti-
mate there will be from 90 900 to $4,000 chill
dren present. Dennis Kearney again sent mp
his card to the general to-day, who as before
| declined to see him. Some curiosity is ex-
pressed as to what Kearney will have to say at
the sand lots tomorrow.

Gen. Grants presence at the California thea
TIE this evening had again the effect to pack the
house. The general ar. ived before the per-
formance commenced, AID was received by the
audience with the SAN demonstrations of re-
gard that have met him wherever be has made
his appearance. The curtain rose a quarter be-
fore the usual time to enable the general, who
intends for once TO set ont the performance, to
afterwards visit the camp fire at the pavilion.
Great amusement and applause were created by
the ruler of the queen: navee' interpolating

team in the vicinity, and bringing SAG per
Thousand. Mills are running night and day.
but not enough can be brought in to supply
the enormous demand. Some had shantles
erected in i've hours from the time of the out
break. All day kilograms have been pouring
in offering stacks of goods, money, clothing,
food, ETC., but as yet nothing but merchandise
has been accepted. No relief committee has
been organized yet, aud probably there will be
none. People who are bankrupt and homeless
do not want to accept aid from the outside
