stand in the middle Of the room and greeted
some four or five hundred people who
called to see him.
AS stated, this task did not take him long.
as the majority Of the people passed rap
Idly with a "Howdy do, Henry,' and re-
turned TO their ordinary occupations.
Gage was equally brief IN his replies, con-
tenting himself with Glad to see you, old
man." Hope you're WELL" etc One or
two enthusiastic citizens wanted to talk
politics, but Gage put them off, saying,
''Fll see you bye and bye"
During the afternoon the band occupied
the hotel balcony in an effort to
keep up the slight enthusiasm created
while the hypnotic candidate got shaved.
and then secluded himself to prepare for
his speech of the evening a the pavilion.
There was no one left in charge Of the
headquarters during the afternoon, or if
there was q committee appointed to take

and went away.

entire lower floor had been reserved for

who followed the band. Some went away
to return no more, while others accepted

carefully deposited in choice seats, but not
over a dozen were on the lower floor when
the parade arrived.
Considerable pains and time had been
taken in decorating the hall, and with tho
many fes;oons of tri-colored bunting sus-
pended from the ceilings, the profus.on
