ropes in front of the stand. where they
were taken in charge by policemen and re-
vived. Many of the people In the crowd
feared they would be crushed to death. A
weird fright seized the assemblage, and
people who watched the proceeding from
points of vantage were momentarily ex-
pecting to see awful calamity that would
end fatally for hundreds of people. Later
hundreds of hats, skirts and other articles
of wearing apparel were found on the plaza,
where they had been torn from men and
women.
THE police were powerless to relieve the
condition except by very slow process OF
thinning out the crowd on the outskirts.
There were some instances of ruffians who
took delight in making the condition
worse, and a few arrests were made. Fin
ally order was restored
These scenes should be remembered by
every one who wishes to avoid being in such
a crowd on March 4. People should remem-
Der that it is not possible to hear the voice
of speaker on the stand when more than
thirty or forty feet away, and that the
plaza and grass plat east of the Capitol,
three hundred or four hundred feet away,
makes practically good a vantage ground
to see the ceremonies does the restricted
area Immediately in front of the stands.

Cor1ING ATTRACTIONS
New National Theater.

Maxine Elliott, who scored an emphatic
success at the National Theater last season
in the Clyde Fitch comedy, Her Own
Way" will return to the National Monday
night for a weeks engagement, with mat
inees Wednesday and Saturday Qnaugura-
ton day.. Miss Elliott played at four diff
ferent New York theaters before her tour
of the principal cities was begun She has
now concluded long tour to the Pacific
coast and her engagements everywhere
have been highly profitable.
Her Own Way is a typical Fitch COM
edy in that it depicts the doingS of certain
types of social climbers found in the smart
set, while at the same time carrying a
strong and well-sustained love interest.
The love story of Her Own Way" predom-
mates even over the social satire of which
Mr.. Fitch is SO fond, and which proves so
amusing to the audience The play takes
its name from the determination of self
reliant and Independent American girl to
have her own way in her own love affair.
Americans are always willing that a wo-
man shall have her own way if she is young
and beautiful and magnetic. But in this
case, while these adjectives cannot be ap-
piled to better purpose than when bestowed
upon Miss Elliott, the dramatist makes her
have hard time having her own way. Miss
Elliott appears as Georgtana Carley, with
whom two men are in love. >One is lieu
tenant who has been ordered to the Philip
pines and the other Is vigorous and I'M
scrupulous millionaire. The lieutenant goes
away, broken hearted, not knowing Geor-
gtana loves him, and the mine owner then
deliberately brings her entire family to
financial ruin. in the belief that when she
Is penniless she will marry him for his
millions But here again Georgiana shows
that she is determined to have her own
way, and even when news comes that the
lieutenant has been killed she still insists
upon having her own way. How this leads
to happiness after all is set forth in the last
act.
Manager Charles B. Dillingham; presents
Miss Elliott here with the same strong cast
seen in New York and on tour last season.
In the list of principals are included Charles
Cherry, James Carew, r. c. Herr. George
Lawrence, Nellie Thorne. Fanny Addison

DANGEROUS CRoWDING.
In Front of the Presidents Stand
Four Years Ago.

This is a good time for people to recall
the scenes that took place before the Presi-
Dental stand at the east front of the Capt.
toll on March four years ago, and to take
precautions against repetition of the con-
ditlons that came near ending disastrous
ly," said an old attache of Congress to a
Star reporter today.
ION that occasion the crowd Immediately
in front of the stand on which Mckinley
stood numbered many thousands. The peo-
pie, men, women and children, were packed
In a solid mass. AS the speaking began
there was a pressure from the rear on the
part OF people who could not hear and who
wanted to get nearer the stand. The police
regulations were the best that could have
been established. but nothing could prevent
the crowd becoming more and more COM
pact. But the worst was to come when the
almost solid mass OF humanity began sway
ing. Nothing could stop It. From the
stands in front of the Capitol the crowd
had the motion Of pillows in the sea.
The swaying carried the people now one
way and now another. 1t seemed at times
as II the crowd would go down, and had
portion of the people fallen to the concrete
they would inevitably have been trampled
to death. Only the denseness of the entire
mass of humanity prevented any one from
falling. But the pressure was intense, and
women and children screamed In some
cases fainting women were raised to the
shoulders of men and passed along to the
