ROOSEVELT THE SOUTH
The President and His Party
Given Hearty Welcome
AT Charleston.

A warm southern sun was shining
brightly as President Roosevelt and bis
party entered the historic ard aristo-
cratic city of Charleston. s. c.. on Tues
day. The trip from Washington over
the Southern Railroad was made on
schedule time, and not delay marred
the pleasure Of the journey.
Added to the ideal day was the cor
diality of the Southern people all along
the route, notably at Charlottesville and
Lynchburg. Enthusiasm manifested
itself by cheers Of welcome whenever the
President made his appearance.
The party did not enter Charleston at
once, but left the train five miles out,
where trolley cars were waiting to con-
vey them to the naval station to take
the revenue cutter Algonquin for tour
of the harbor. After the committee and
guests had gone aboard, the Algonquin
started. Passing down Cooper river. a
fine view of the city and the opening of
the bay was presented Passing into the
hay, the Algonquin came abreast of the
cruiser Cincinnati, whose decks were
manned with all her crew, as well as the
Topeka and Lancaster. As the Presi-
dents vessel passed each ship a salute OF
2l guns was fired. Of the Notifications
of Sullivan's island the Algonquin was
greeted with the same welcome, and she
passed out to the ocean amid chorus of
guns.
| Just little run to the sea, and the
Algonquin turned about and re-entered
the harbor, passing around historic Fort
| Sumter. While steaming up the bay
! luncheon was served in the cabin of the
cutter. A short run was made up the
Ashley river, giving view Of the city's
western water front, and then the ship
was headed back for the landing, where
troop of the Charleston Light dragons
was in waiting to escort the President to
his headquarters at the St. John hotel.
All the arrangements were excellent,
and there was not break in the pro-
gramme. The President seemed in high
spirits and entered with keen zest into
evening the banquet given by the city
in honor of the President was served ar
the Charleston hotel. While this was
in progress Mrs Roosevelt held recep-
tion at the st. John, to which invita-
tions were issued. No men were present.
The ballroom was exqhisitely decora-
ted for the occasion and was in keeping
with the splendid toilets of the 500 hand
somely gowned women who came to do
honor to the Presidents charming wife.
Mrs. Roosevelt and the ladies of her
party occupied dais near the southern
end of the room and received the guests,
vino were introduced by Mrs. Andrew
Sinonds, Jr. The reception began at
O'Clock and lasted until after midnight.

owned a Buggy 80 Years.

John r. Conover, the grocer at lin
'r''t' soIu buggy last week that be had
owned Tor 80 years. The buggy had been
10 use several years when Mr.. Conove,
got IL and tits therefore nearly forty wears
oid. The buggy was built at the Richard
campbell shop at Shrewsbury. which is
now run by G. H, Hurley. About two
years after the buggy was built it came
into possession Of the late ]. Holmes
hendrlckson, who traded it with Mr.
Conover for farm wagon which Mr..
Conover and bis father built at the elder
Conover's shop at Lncroft. The buggy
cost when new $3.50. 1t was sold last
week to Mr.. Tilton, of Belford. for SIS.
The buggy is of the old.fashioned high
body design, but it is in good condition
and looks as though it might do service
Tor good many years. The buggy still
has the same top that was put on it when
1t was built, and there isn't a crack or
tear in the top anywhere. Mr.. Conoyer
had not used the wagon much of late.
but it was the wagon that be went court.
ing with and be was l0ath to part with it
on account of its associations. His senti-
me entality waned as years went bv and
finally he was induced to part with what
he looked upon as somewhat Of relic.

TUESDAYS GREAT STORM.
The Wind Did Some Damage in
Various Places.

The storm which bad been looked for
since the middle Of March arrived on
Tuesday. For the past week the sky has
been darkened by overhaDging clouds
and the h gh winds served as reminder
that March had been couple of weeks
nremature. While the rain may be just
what the farmers want, its benefits are
somewhat blighted by the damage sus-
tained to property.
In Trenton the already crippled tele-
phone and telegraph wires were ripped
down and great limbs were torn from
trees by the wind. Chimneys were
blown from several houses and states
were strewn about the street, making it
very dangerous for pedestrians. Four
houses on Bellevue avenue were unroofed
by the terrific gale.
At B0rdentown the wind blew at the
rate of rs miles an hour and the rain
came down in torrents. filling the gut
ters aud culverts so rapidly that the
streets became miniature streams. The
wind blew down small buildings, trees,
fences. telegraph and telephone wires.
At the big shirt factory of Jacob Miller
G. Sons, the tin roof was blown partly off
and great excitement reigned among the
200 or more women employed there
For a while no trolley cars were run be-
tween Bordentown and Trenton.

purchased horses with him.
