ROCHESTER, N. Y, May 3O.-The citizens
Of Rochester were in a state of excitement
to-day due to their desire to display a vo-
ciferous appreciation of the presence OF the
chief magistrate of the nation, and at the
same time, to observe The Sabbath. Not
w~ithstanding the fact that the skies were
overcast and threatening. and the weather
somewhat dispiriting. the streets i'll the
vicinity Of the presidents temporary abode
were throngcd all day with people who fol-
lowed his movements with the liveliest n
terest. The committee of arrangements
had guaranteed their distinguished guest
absolute freedom from intrusion to-day.
and fulfilled the promise so far
as the time passed in the hotel is concerned,
but affairs were sc arranged that he was
obliged to be before the public the major
part of the day: He had an early break
last with Secretary Noble, Col. Ernest aud
services at the brick Presbyterian church.
This edifice is on the same street as the ho-
tel and only a few blocks away. Several
thousand people were gathered along the
route in order to get y glimpse of the presi-
dent, but in de. erence OF the day, made no
demOnStratlOn as ne walked by them. Inc
church was deliberately decorated for the
occasion, with flowers, tropical plants and
the national colors and presented a fine APP
pearance. 1t was packed to the doors and
hundreds OF people, who were unable to get
in, remained outside during the entire serv-
ice.
The president lunched privately at the
hotel and theh went out ior a walk with
Col. Ernst. Hc.went only a short distance,
however, as the people gathered around
him in such numbers that il was deemed
best to return to the hotel. The president
later in the afternoon went out for a drive
with d. W. Powers. an incident of which
was a visit to the latter's art gallery. In
the evening special memorial services were
held at the Central Presbyterian church,
where President Harrison and Gov. Flower
listened to an impressive sermon by the
pastor, Rev. H.. II. Stebbins. The church
was beautifully decorated and was
crowded with Grand Army men in UNI
form. who escorted the DISTINGUISHED officials
to and from, the church. The city is rap
idly filling up with strangers. and the
streets Tonight arc thrcnged with visitors.
the majority of whom are from Western
and Central New York. The indications
are that there will be more people in the
city tomorrow than ever before in its his
tory. Detectives engaged by the local COM
mlttec ale in constant attendance on the
president. 1t is a novel experience for him
to he guarded in this way. and he is not
altogether pleased at the innovation, as he
does not regard it as necessary.

A Gardening Episode.

He carefully prepared the small
garden plot, while his wife, deeply in.
terested in his labor, stood watching
him. After he had put in the seeds
and smoothed over the bed, his wife
took his arm to accompany him to
the house, and on the way she ask
ed
When will the seeds come up,
John?"
He was one OF those men who take
pleasure in saying a smart thing when
the opportunity offers, so, laying his
hand caressingly on her shoulder, he
said
~ don't expect them to come up at
all, Maria"
You don't!" she exclaimed; "then
why have you gone to all that trou-
. ble?"
With a smile that came from super
Tor knowledge, he answered.
''The seeds won't come up, but the
flowers will by-and-by."
But he was wrong, for his neighbours
hens got into hisgarden that day, and
the seeds did come up.

Lighting.

The longest distance to which cleo,
trio power is actually transmitted for
electric lighting in the United States
is about thirteen miles. A plant OF
several thousand incandescent lamps
in Portland, Ore, is supplied with
current from generators at the falls OF
the Willamette river. An alternating
current of 5000 volts potentialis en-
ployed; Quite recently it is reported
that the Westinghouse company OF
Pittsburg, who designed and erected
the Portland plant, have constructed
another one at Pomona, in Southern
California, in which about l, oO0horse
power is to be conveyed Is miles at a
vpressure at 10000 volts. This plant,
if successful-and there appears no
cas- why it should not be-will con-
stitute q notable achievement in cleo.

A FEMALE FILleUSTERER,
Death Of a Woman Who Took Par
In Walkers Raid on Nicaragua.

Death Of a Woman Who Took Part
in Walkers Raid on Nicaragua.
Mrs. Harriet LucIett Brady, a fe-
male survivor OF Walkers filibluster-
ing expedition to Nicaragua, died
recently, says q New Orleans cores
pondent in the Baltimore American.
She WAS born in New Orleans sixty
one years ago, and married Col.
Philip r. Thompson, at II time OF
the regular army, whom she accom-
panied to Nicaragua, he being then
Acknowledgment on Walkers staff.
With him his wife participated in the
series OF battles fought by the Ameri-
cans, and witnessed the resulting
overthrow OF the N%icaraguan govern
ment. When Gen. Walker reorganized
the administration, becoming COM
mander-in-chief OF the army, her hus-
band became one. OF his most trusted
counselors, and she herself was asso-
ciated with him as adviser. During
the war which followed between
Nicaragua and the republic OF Costa
Rica Mrs. Thompson vas exposed to
verypossibledanger. Herhusband oc-
cupied a camp on the River Sarapa-
qui, which was surprised by the enemy
and the colonel was taken prisoner.
Confined in the prison of a town ear
by, where he was joined by his faithful
wife, and with her aid effected his es-
cape. During the seige Of the Rivas
Mrs. Thompson endured the extrem-
ity OF hardships. She was present at
many OF the assaults, and encouraged
the troops to renewed exertions by
the calm intrepidity which she dis
played under fire. When cholera des-
olated the beleaguered city she nursed
the sick in the hospitals and exerted
herself in every way to keep up the
spirits Of the garrison. Her exertions
were so important that Walker, in
the volume in which he relates the
story OF the days, takes occasion
to praise them. just prior to the
last attack many OF the women in
Rivas we're allowed by the enemy to
leave the devoted town, but Mrs.
Thompson remained with her friends.
When Walker at last was driven to
surrender, in April, 1857, she and her
husband accompanied him to the St.
Mary and on that vessel returned
with him to the. United States. She
lost her husband, Col. Thompson,
soon after returning to New Orleans.
Mrs. Thompson afterward married
Maj. Andrew Brady, also a survivor
of the tilibustering expedition. Maj.
Brady entered the confederacy, and
was desperately wounded at Chancel-
louisville. His dauntless wife imme-
diately went to the front and nursed
him back to health. Since the last
war she has resided in New Orleans,
where her home was one Of the love-
lest and most hospitable. Maj.
Brady died in 1883.
