In case any of them shall attempt to en- ter the park or follow the president he will be arrested and placed in the guardhouse, there to remain until after the president shall have finished his visit and departed.
 The president yesterday travelled through familiar country and received Hearty greetings wherever his train stopped. At many places he recognized old friends, and from his conversation it was evident that it had been one of < the most enjoyable days of his trip. At Eargo, Jamestown and Bismarck he nude stops of from half an hour to an hoNF and discussed the conditions in the Philippines, the tariff and the gen sraI lgosperity of the country. Stops .4 Valley Wty, the home of Governor White; DAwson, Dickinson and Ne aora

The president had traded with two of these Indians eighteen or twen- ty years ago. and he instantly recog- nized them.

 The most interesting ceremony of the day occurred at Nedora, where the president at one time owned a ranch and which was his postonice address Ezteen years ago, when he was sheriff Of Billings county. Nedora is small place, but the ranchmen from the sur founding country had come into town, and they gave the president a truly western reception. Joe Ferris, the presidents old foreman, and his broth CT, s. N. Ferris. met the president at Bismarck and rode with him to Ne 1ora
 Standing In the private office of Gov 4rnor White at the state capitol at Bis Haarciz, President Roosevelt received the assurance of the friendship and support of the great Sioux Indian tribe and similar assurances from the chiefs nS xhe Mandans and Grosyentraa.
