warm sun of the Pacific slope
The presidents reception was as gorgeous,
gay and giddy as usual The White House
never loosed cleaner or grander, and the
crowd has never been bigger Long before

men wcro stationed st the various gates of
the White House grounds, and none were
permitted 10 enter save those who had their
sveldinS garments 90, Of, in other words,
their Official clothes, - In the case Of the
diplomats and officers. until the hour for

al classes, ages and sizes; Of all colors, sexes
and conditions, they formed long lines reach

the policeman, for the newspaper man at
Washington has rights which the ordinary
public do not possess. and entered the White
House before even the president himself had

plants in every recess The mantels each
contained enough roses for great wedding,
and shields Of red, ybite and blue hung on
the pillars Of the Est room. The windows
OF the Blue room were covered with curtains.
