Warm Reception In New Hampshire
New Hampshires arms were open
yesterday in readiness to receive the
president. Long before he was
awake a committee representing tn
governor boarded the train. The vel
come they extended to him on behalf
OF the state was magnificent and
later in the day in the smaller towns
through which the train passed, and
at Nashua, Manchester, The Weirs
and Concord, although the day was
teplete with the miscarriage of ar.
rangements. At The Weirs, where
thesGrand Army reunion was held, the
people in the excess Of their desire to
accord the president a fitting recep-
ton came near causing a crush which
might have resulted disastrously. AS
it was, the president was for time
in the midst of a bowling, surging
mass, and was all but carried off his
feet So inadequate were the police
arrangements that the crowd had en-
tire control of the situation, and much
relief was expressed when the presi.
dent, after reviewing the vetrans, was
ccorted into the hotel for luncheon.
Here again the carefully laid plans
for his entertainment went astray
luncheon being finally served through
[he gallantry Of the governors staff,
who turned in and acted as walters.
The presidents speech at the park,
where the veterans were gathered,
was most favorably received. AS in
the case of Bangor, he admonished
his hearers to remain still and not to
shove. A great crush occurred at
Concord as the train was pulling out,
and for a time it was feared people
would be hurt.
Slept Aboard the Train.
Nashua, ~ H., Aug. 29.-For the
first time since beginning his tour Of
New England, President Roosevelt
Wednesday night slept aboard the
train. He remained up until a late
hour, talking over old times with
'Bill' Sewall, his former guide, whom
he insisted should accompany him to
Ellsworth and back to Bangor. In all
probability the president will return
to Maine in October for a hunting
trip.
Early yesterday morning at Kittery
Junction, Me-, the train was boarded
by General Aging, of Concord, n. H.,
Secretary of State Edward Pearson
and George H. Moses, representing
Governor Jordan, of New Hampshire.

people Of Clement, a small station, the
PRESIDENT, who had not finished dress
ing, rushed to the door of his car
wrapped in an overcoat and bowed to
the little gathering.
At Windham Junction the populace
was astir early and as the train ap
preached the station a salute was
fired and a rousing cheer went up as
rhe president appeared on the rear
platform.
The train reached Nashua on time.
The president and his party were es-
