WAsHisGTos, March 5.
The organizations which desired 10 leave
the city today we're received by the Presi-
dent Al the executive mansion Each con-
tnaent headed by band marched up under
the south portieo of the mansion and passed
in the main door way of the East room As
each delegation came in its president, captain
or leader introduced the members. The
crowd passed through a; the rate Of 40 per
minute, each person receiving a shake of
the Presidents hand. Harrison gave q
hearty grip and showed by his expeditions
manner that he had been experienced at
handshakipg.
Secretary Blaine came in with the rest of
the crowd and stopped for a short chat with
the President. He was recognized by the
waiting throng, and as he left the house was
given quite an ovation, hundreds of persons
insisting upon shaking hands with him.
At 3 80 the grounds were still thronged
with people awaiting admission. The crowd
was receiving fresh accessions every minute
and it became evident that if the President
received all he would have to keep up the
reception indefinitely. As he was much IA
tigued by his continued exertions the recep
ton was closed for the day, but to appease
those in waiting they were informed that the
President would come out on the porch and
review them as they passed along.

ne made when a man was horn.


The world was made when a man was born,
BE must taste for himself the forbidden springs,
he can never take warning from old fashioned
things
He must fight as boy, he must drink as youth,
He must kiss, he must love, he must swear to the
truth
OF the friend Of his soul; he must laugh to scorn
The hints Of deceit In q woman's eyes
That arc clear as the wells OF Paradise.
And as he goes on till the world grows old,
TIL his tongue has grown cautious. his heart has
grown cold;
Till the smile leaves his mouth and the ring leaves
his laugh,
And he shirks the bright headache you ask him to
quaff.
He grows formal with men and with women polite,
And distrustful Of both when they're out of his
sight
Then he eats for his palate and drinks for his
head,
And loves for his pleasure, and tits time he were
dead. John Boyle o'Reilly.

plockinr Fire Escapes.

"Why don't people who live In, fiat houses
keep their household goods off the fire es-
capesl'. said fireman to tho writer recently.
'sThey know it Is against the law, for every
now and then somebody is fined for IT; and
they must know how dangerous it is In
case of fire have known people deliber-
ately cover up the opening in tho floor of the
fire escape with boards, 80 that their children
might play on the balcony In safety, or 10
that the washerwoman might hang out the
clothes without getting nervous; seeming TO
care nothing that by so doing oil access from
ono story to another was wholly cut of. This
seems to be a favorite place, too, for the fam
lily refrigerator, neat little thing to remove
in hurry in case of stampede from the
flames. / have seen so much stuff piled up
there that the shutters could not actually be
opened wide enough to let child pass
through, let alone woman half crazed with
fear. The carelessness Of tenants down town,
too, about fire Is remarkable. They seem to
think that IL they have their goods insured
that Is all that Is necessary. II there were
no insurance, ddn't believe there would bo
half so many fires. New York Tribune.

GETTING INTO SHAPE.
FOR THE FAIR BY THE
STATE BOARD OF AGRICULTURE.
Complete List of Racing EveRts-No BIZ
cycle Races-Appointmen of
Attaches-Etc.

The State Board Of Agriculture met yes
ierday afternoon and last evening. Messrs
Green, Shippee, Boggs, La Rue Cox, Han
cock, Chase, Swan and Carr were present.
Nothing of importance was done during
the afternoon. At the evening session
David Lubin appeared before the Board,
and addressed it upon the subject of his
proposed playground. He urged the
Board to lend every assistance, and also
asked that the Board furnish an extra band
of music, to be present every day on the
ground.
Mr. Bruner, representative Of the Sac
ramento wheelmen, also addressed the
Board in the furtherance of the proposition
to lay bicycle track on the fair grounds.
After these gentlemen had retired the
Board proceeded with its regular business.
1t was decided to advertise the privileges
for pool-selling. The bids will close at L
P. NJ on the 18th instant. Either cash or
percentage bids will be received, or both
Each bid must be accompanied BY certi-
fed check for $5, 600.
The entries for the races were next con-
sidered. Several events which did not fill
were rejected, including the Pacific stallion
stakes.
Mr.. Hancock argued in favor OF inserting
yearllng race in place of the rejected Pa
cific stallion race.
Mr.. Perkins was opposed to it because he
considered yearling races cruelty to ami
mails.
There was considerable discussion on the
subject, and upon vote finally being taken
Chase's proposition was voted down..
Mr. Boggs thought it would be good
idea to have "gentlemeu's race" sometime
during the fair. The idea was to give q
purse for gentlemen who will ride their
own horses.
The suggestion was put in the shape of a
motion to give purse of $3.50, and allow
the Speed Programme Committee to make
the conditions. The motion was carried.
The election Of starter was the next
matter taken up. After considerable dis
cusslon Mr.. Crittenden, the gentleman
who held the flag last wear, was again
selected, provided he will accept.
At this point Mr.. Carr moved to recon
slider tbe vote by which the proposition to
allow bicycle races on the race track was
carried. The motion was carried, and
then heated debate ensued.
Mr.. Shippee opposed the matter stub
bornly. He said The bicycles were danger
GUS to horses, and he was sure the horse
men would contribute purse to give the
wheelmen 20 keep away altogether.
After prolonged talk on the subject the
proposition was again voted down.
The application of the Ladies' Exchange
for the privilege of selling goods at the fair
was denied
The proposition to furnish funds for the
music for Mr.. Lubin's play ground was
voted down.
Dana Perkins was unanimously chosen
Superintendent of the Grand Stand, with
full power to appoint all his own assist
ants.
]. ]. Mccarthy was elected Chief Ticket
Clerk. Other employees will be chosen by
a committee consisting of Chairman Green
and Mr. La Rue.
