TORONTO, Ont. Oct. 1.-THE entry
of the Duke and Duchess of Cornwall
and York into Toronto was marked by
great popular demonstration Of well
come. A storm that sent rivulets Of
muddy water through the streets and
took the starch out of the decorations
swept over the city, but wind and rain
had no appreciable effect upon the
throngs that turned out to aid IN the
welcome and show Of loyalty. Wrapped
In waterproofs or sheltered under UNI
brellas. the people waited for hours In
the sodden streets and warmed them
selves with cheers when the prince and
princess finally came. Despite the
storm many of the finer effects Of the
reception that represented months Of
preparation were not lost, and the en-
tire programme was bravely carried
out.
The larger reception at Toronto was
the elimination of series of smaller
ones that began far up in the Muskoko
lake country and extended from Hunts
vile on to Toronto. When the ducal
train swept into the specially construct
I'd depot In North Toronto, outside in a
great l. shaped stand G,O0O school chill
lren were crowded. and in the square
made by the depot and stand were the
mounted and foot troops designated as
escort and guard of honor. The sharp
voices Of the children arose in great
choir of greeting, the troops presented
arms and off in a field near by bat
terry hammered away on the royal sa-
| lutte as the train halted. Two bands
| gave time to the immense chorus as 1t
| rolled out God Save the King, "The
Maple Leaf" and other patriotic songs.
| nrenching rain fell on the young sing
ers, but they kept their time and tone
