memorable day in this most memorable
campaign. and the reception rendered
Colonel Markham to-day was one of the most
splendid accorded him during his present
canvass. The town was literally turned
aver to him, and those who thronged to the
Auzerais House to grasp him by the hand
and welcome him to the Garden City were
numbered not BY hundreds but literally by
thousands.
The party left Jacksonville at I o'clock
and arrived at Giroy at s o'clock,
where break fast was awaiting them,
and after which an informal reception
was held in the Opera House for
two hours. At II 80 o'clock a special

Judge joseph 5. Wallis, who we're to vel
come Colonel Markham to the latter place.
Colonel Markham and party we're taken on
board, and at noon started on their way TO
this pl4ce. The run was made in little
over an hour, and as the train entered the
suburbs hundreds of curious spectators
crowded the line OF the road to catch
GLIMPSE Of the future Governor.
As the train SLOWED up at the depot can
non Numbered a welcome, and cheer after
cheer went UP from hundreds who were in
waiting So great was the Thong. and so
eager were they TO NEE. Colonel Mark
ham. that it was with the greatest
difficulty that he was eXtricated from the
crowd and conducted to a carriage in which
he was driven TO the Auzarais House. The
entire route from the depot to the hotel
was thronged with people who cheered for
the popular fayorite. At the hotel the
handsome parlors had been rrofusely decor
ated with howerS and banners by COM
mittee of ladies, chief among whom was Mrs.
H. c. MorehUuSe. An attractive ornament
was a large chair literally heaped with
Markham roses, emblematic of the fact
that the gubernatorial chair viii be
hlled when taken by the sun-tanned son of
Pasadena. Herr. under the fields of the
American flag, Colonel Markham stood and
received the immense throug of people who
flocked to meet him. For each he had a
warm grasp Of the hand and a kind word of
greeting and all went away pleased with
the manly bearing and pleasant face of the
genial gentleman who has won to himself 50
many true and trusty friends.
For dinner he was driven to the VendOme
Hotel, where rooms had been reserved for
him, and which weE% also prufusely deco

between Tffe1f was most cordial and they
remained Tor some time in conversation.
Shortly before O'Clock the booming of
cannon and hiss Of rockets announced the
approach of the hour for the meeting, and
procession Of over 1000 men formed to escort
the eminent gentlemen to the Pavilion. The
streets were literally alive with people, and
blazing torches and exploding fireworks
MADE the scene one not easily forgotten.
As the carriage bearing Markham and STAN
ford passed between the living mass lining
the streets 4 continuous roar Of cheers passed
along the line and the widest enthusiasm
prevailed. Long before the party reached
the Pavilion it was literally packed
TO suffocGtiOn, there being fully 5000 people
present, and they manifested their en-
thusiasm in the most vociferous manner.
AS organization after organization marched
in with flying colors and noisy bands
the scene was a beautiful one. When
Colonel Markham entered on the arm OF
Senator Stanford scene of the widest en-
thusia>m ensued. Men and women sprang
TO their feet and cheered themselves hOarse,
while hats were thrown in the air and flags
and handkerchiefs were waved by thousands
OF hands 1t was fully five minutes before
order was restored. Markham and Stan
ford stood side by side and smilingly bowed
their a acknowledgements
