backs, while every hat bore some
letter or figure.
In the New Denizen, and on the
street corners, were half a dozen
professional chalkers, doing a land
Office business. Dudish young men
would submit to have their modish
garments arlistically marked with
all sorts of humorous characters, ka.
zoo bands, horn bands aud brass
bands marched up and down in tht
mud, the men all bedecked with
ROSTERS, flags and chalk marks.
Occasionally a man would come

heads when pumped back and forth
emitting a collection of sounds that
would drown whole kazoo band
The device that afforded the extend

AS they would pass the crowds wild
cheers rent the air, and at many
points the crowd stopped the pro
cession and joined it in singing the
above refrain. The celebration was
of the most humorous and impromp

AS evening came on the factories
and stores added their hundreds to
the bowling, screaming rabble. Be.
tween Z and s o'clock the excite
ment had nearly reached the frenzy
point with good many who were
overindulgent, and not few quar-
rels occurred. A few buildings were
Illuminated with Chinese lanterns,
and the noise of the cannon, the
anvils, frecrackers and tin horns
which continued until after 8 O'Clock
could be plainly heard as far out as
General Harrisons residence.
The General and his family, ex.
cept tor these distant echoes, are I'M
conscious of the stirring scenes in
the city. Except for a short walk
yesterday and this morning, Gen
eral Harrison has not left his resi-
dence since election day.
