on Friday Mr.. Rust filed the following

tiftytwo nurserymen who desired that
he be retained in office:
We, the undersigned, nurserymen of the
county of Los Angeles, having learned that
a petition has been presented to your hon.
orable body by certain persons engaged in
the nursery business, asking for the re-
moval of Edward H. Rust from the office
of horticultural commissioner, beg to most
earnestly protest against his removal.
Mr.. Rust is a practical man. and we
think q practical man is needed for that
position. We do not think the fact that
he is himself engaged in the nursery busi-
ness is. in itself. an objection We con-
slider him an honest and competent man.

News from Richmond.

The following dramatic story of how
the news of the surrender of Richmond
reached Washington is told in vol
lme OF telegraphic tales by w. J. John
son:
On the morning of April 3. 1865, one
of the most important messages that
ever flashed along wire came to the
office at Washington. 1t was the news
that Richmond had fallen, and that the
war was at an end.
1t seems that shortly after half-past
in the morning the Washington and
Cherrystone operators along the line of
the Fortress Monroe and City Point
wire were startled by what seemed Il
foolish demand from Fortress Monroe:
Turn down for Richmond. quick"
The signal was answered promptly
never more promptly. Then came the
question. do you get me well?'
Il do; 20 ahead.
"All right Here's the first message
for four years"
The message was as follows:

The great spectacular feature of the
days ceremonies was of course the inau-
gural parade, which started on its line OF
march immediately after President Nc
kihley had concluded the reading of his
inaugural address. 1t was under the COM
mani of Gen. Horace Porter, as chief
marshal, and a.lIbraced, besides the regu-
lar army, representative bodies of State
militia, headed ny the various Governors,
and civid and POLITICAL organizations.

stands up several points. and there was
scarcely seat to be had on any of the
big stands. Nearly every building along
the line of march that had window COM
manding view of the avenue was in the
market. The prices asked had been phe
nomenal-S20 being the lowest for which
single window could be had, while the
prices ranged from that figure to $500
for three-window room. Calvin Brice
of Ohio paid $1,000 for an avenue room
for the day at Wizards with luncheon
served for a small party, and Secretary
Carlisle good price for one in the Postal
Telegraph building.
While the rest of the town was pulsing
with enthusiastic anticipation, there sat
at his desk in the White House the man
who is now eX-President. Even his in
disposition of Tuesday did not keep him
from his work. Mr.. Cleveland toiled
through most of Wednesday night, and
when he resumed his labors in the morn
ing the electric lights had to be turned
on, for day had not broken yet. he work
ed on till the hour for him to leave the
White House for the last time as Presi-
dent, and then he laid down his pen with
the satisfaction to himself, at least, of
duty DONE His cabinet officers also were
similarly engaged in cleaning up the final
bits of business on their desks, and, like
their chief, were ready to relinquish the
cares of Office.
Close of Congress.
And up on the hill in the great white
building, bathed in the bright sunshine,
the congressional mill was grinding on
and on and on, intent on making up for
lost time. The House was noisy, the
Senate calm and quiet. Bills were being
ground out with a speed which made
those spectators who have been watching
progress of this great national legislative
mill for the past two years dizzy. An inn
mense throng of people stood round the
outer doors of the Capitol, beseeching,
clamoring, demanding admission, but the
police, Obedient to orders issned by their
superiors, because the capacity of the
building could not be stretched, refused
admission to all save those who held tick
cts to the Senate, where the dignitaries
of the nation were assembled.
a sound nights rest put the President
elect in perfect condition for the exhaust
ing functions of the day. He had retired
early, so that he enjoyed full nights
repose. and the beneficial effect was plain
ly visible when he arose Thursday morn
ing and saluted Mrs. Mckinley with the
remark that it was the first day of her
accession to the dignity and title of the
first lady of the land.
At five minutes to 10 o'clock Senator
Sherman and Senator Mitchell of Wis
consn. of the Senate coin:nittee appointed
to conduct the Inauguration, appeared and
announced that they had come to escort
the President-elect to the Capitol. They
were admitted at once and exchanged
greetings with Mr.. and Mrs. Mckinley.
Soon the President-elect emerged from
his reception room on the arm of Senator
Sherman. He looked calm and walked
firmly. Just behind him came Secretary
Porter. with Senator Mitchell of Wiscon-
sin. Capt Heistand of the army. with
Abner Mckinley, brought up the rear and

William Mckinley, of Ohio, is now
President of the United States. Standing
with bowed head before an immense gath
ering of people, he took the oath to faith
fully perform the duties of the Office. The
ceremony was performed by Chief Justice
Fuller. With an expression of humility
mingled with realization of the heavy
burdens he was about to assume, Mr.. Nc
kinley bent his head and repeated in
clear voice the words:
81 do solemnly swear that 1 will faith
fully execute the Office of President of
the United States and will to the best of
my ability, preserve, protect and defend
the constitution of the United States"
There was deathlike silence as the
preparations for administering the oath
were begun. The people could see the
pantomime enacted, but only the favored
few in the immediate vicinity could hear
the words; then a cannon shot was heard.
This marked the beginning of the term of
William Mckinley as President, and in
stantly tremendous cheer went up. Hats,
canes, handkerchiefs and other articles
were waved as President Mckinley step
ped to the edge of the Capitol portico and
bowed his acknowledgements to the peo-
pie. AS soon as the President noticed
lull in the applause he began to deliver the
inaugural address. At least 10000
strangers witnessed the ceremony, while
the capital city citizens, numbering 3OO.-
600 people, lined the streets and filled the
avenues. Capitol Plaza, where President
Mckinley stood, was filled with seeth-
ing, surging mass of between $4,000 and
10000 people.
