crowds Of people rapidly filing up

scribed. Every Inauguration brings
cros ds of people here. But the class

were oh livious to the " regular order
of arrangements for going in and com.
ing out. One man used bis fists effec-
tually in making his way from the
Green Room into the East Room. He
looked like one who had come to Wash.
ington for the first time since the war.
A trained puRilist could hardly have
made more successfui and triumphant
march. The crowd OF surprised and
half fr iRhtened women fell back on
either side as he struck out with his
fists right and left and reached the Eas,
Room, where he walked about coolly
surveying the portraits of George and
Martha Washington. He gave 10 heed
to the remarks hurled alter him. Wei
