passed slowly by. the troops presented
arms to the commander-in- chief of the

The remaining fifteen carriages were

Demonstrations Enthusiastic.
The procession to the capitol, headed

One hundred thousand citizens of the
greatest republic in the world saw and
welcomed the president of that repub-
lie, Theodore Roosevelt, yesterday aft
ernoon in st. Paul.
One hundred thousand citizens ap-
peared glad to see him, if the enthu-
siastic greetings extended along the
line Of the parade from the depot to
the capitol, and the rousing cheers that
filled the air when the president made
his public address, We're any indica-
tion of the pulse of the people.
The personal popularity of the man
with the people was at all times in
evidence.
The booming of cannon announced
to the whole city of st. Paul the COM
ing of the president of the United
States. The instant the train bearing
the chief executive of the nation came
to view at the river bend, the first sa-
lutte was fired: The reverberation of
the cannon sounded to the city limits.
Twenty more salutes followed. The
last gun was fired just as the presi-
dental train came to a standstil at
the foot of Sibley street.
Battery A, Of the national guard,
stationed on the west bank of the river,
opposite the depot. fired the salute.

staff of the department Of Dakota,

The train pulled slowly by until the
last car, that occupied by the presi-
dent, came abreast the platform.
Upon its appearance the crowd sent
up cheer. Eager eyes scanned G.

the hope of catching q glimpse of the
familiar countenanee OF President
Roosevelt. But it was not visible SC
soon.

VETERAN TRES TO
MEET THE PRESIDENT

At Third and Sibley the streets were
blocked four ways, hundreds Of peo-

president, crowding each other for a
point Of vantage. 1t was all the
mounted police could do to keep the
throng from impeding the progress of
the parade. From every window in
the tall buildings along the route men
and women cheered and waved their
handkerchiefs, their salutations BEING

PRESIDENT LOSES
HIS EQUILIBRIUM

Hi, Teddy" was the familiar greet

ed on top of window coping on the
old postoffice, as President Roosevelt's s
carriage rounded the corner, and it
seemed like a response when the presi-
dent arose to his feet and bowed in
the direction from which the shrill.
piping yell came. The crowd took it
up, but the roar was no more vigorous
and insistent than the presidents al
most monotonous bow and his per-
sistency in keeping his head uncovered
while the cheering was on.
