so great that I. d. O'Brien announced
that unless the regular order was al

shout for Mr.. Smith. and when he was
announced by Mr.. Gilman the audience
arose and cheered and waved hats and
banners for several minutes. Mr.Smith
stood the while. and smilingiy bowed
his Acknowledgements of the ovation.
During his brief speech the applause
was so great that it was difficult for
him to be heard far back into the audi

with all my heart l thank you for
your kind reception. In my experience
of forty years in this city l never saw
