our Capitol was laid and the circumstances
surrounding it will not be worth COM

After the President had taken his seat
there was great outburst of applause, and
then the grand chorus followed with an ex-

When the last notes had foated away,
President Cleveland introduced the orator OF
the day, William Writ Henry.
The next speaker was Vice-President
Stevenson, who was introduced IN brief
but appropriate speech by President Cleve-
land. The Vice-President's voice rose above
the crowd, and he was heard perhaps better
than any Of the speakers who had preceded
him. His brief speech was punctuated ire
quently by the applause OF the crowd.
