indianapolis, Ind. March 1s-Escort-
ed by three regiments of infantry and a I
battalion of artillery, the full strength
of the national guard of Indiana, the /
remains of Former President Harrison
this noon We're taken fom his late home
On North Delaware street to the state
capitol, where they viii lie in state un
| till 10 o'clock tonight, when they Will be
removed once more 10 hisl home.
Fourteen days of gray skies and
GLOON gave way this morning to bright
sunshine, and no more beautiful wealth
Ter could have been desired for the day
in which the citizens Of Indiana paid
their last tribute of honor and respect
to the man whom they deemed the fore
most sen Of tfieil state and one OF he
kind that comes 10 any commonwealth
only with generations between. The air
Was cold, but not highly uncnmforable.sE
A gentle wind blew from the north just
strong enough To lift TO tieirfuil length
the thousands of halt-masted bannersI
and to softly wave the long streafners

sands Of people. who lined the streets

Estate house as thEy waited for the ar

pres,ident will belong to hose who knew
him best and loved him most
/ Today he belonged 10 those Who knew
him less, but whose honor, pride and
admiration We're co-equal with that OF
the members of his family and hos.
4 who enjoyed Intimate acguaintance. In
most unstinted measure Cid the citizens
of Indiana reveal the esteem in which
they held him. The body was borne
i thru the streets between deep lines 81
levery hat off. and there was deep ST.
ilence broken only by the slow tramp OF
the marching men and the quick c,atters
i of horses feet in the marching column.
All night long the people of Indiana
land soldiers OF the state poured into In
& dianapois. Every train discharged
i Hundreds of visitors. while special after

company after company of militia. The
( parade formed at the Harrison home
tand. despite the fast tina, all prelimin-
airy arrangements had bean most care
fully made there Was some confusion4
and delay before everything was in
readiness for the march 10 the capitol.
