banked upon every projecting ledge Of
the capitol and filling the windows.
At about ! o'clock the official party
came through the main door. Cheers
were sent up from the enthusiastic
multitude, all eyes were directed that

glimpse OF the president. Shouts Of
There he is'' were heard frequently,
but In nearly every instance the cry
was sounded In false alarm.
The Official entrance was dramatic.
All except those who were participat-
Ing In the ceremony were seated. When
the justices of the supreme court, WITH
the exception OF Chief Justice Fuller,
emerged from between the Corinthian
pillars and marched down the sloping
carpeted aisle to their station, they
were greeted with applause The
justices wore their robes and skull
caps. Then came the members Of the
diplomatic corps in their gorgeous uni
forms and they evoked thunderous ap-
plause. Led BY Count Cassini, the
Russian ambassador and dean of the
corps, and followed by the others in
order Of precedence, they took seats on
the right OF the stand. Strolling In
after them came members Of the cabi-
net. senator's and representatives In
congress.
Throughout this scene the demeanor
Of the multitude was that of interested
expectancy. The enticing prospect OF
seeing gorgeous and stately pageants
in review detracted In no manner from
the keen interest In the less brilliant
program In immediate prospect. The
attraction responsible for the assemb-

and soon the great sea of people was
waving hats and flags and shouting
itself hoarse.
President Roosevelt came forth from

HIS GUESS WAS NATURAL.
Hs Knew What Had Come on Before
and Signs Were Looking
Right Again.

Many tales are told Of the aged post
master Of little seaport village. OF Neu
England, whose position allowed him .
specially intimate acquaintance with the
Affairs Of his fellow townsfolk upon
which his kindly spirit often moved him
TO offer unsought advice. They were
used to him, and we're seldom either Of
tended OF abashed. but temporary resi-
dents sometimes had their tempers
little rufied. His, however, remained
auite unperturbed under their rebuns,
relates Youths Companion.
One season a very pretty young teach
er accepted a position in the village
school-a position which had been re-
signed with inconvenient abruptness By
her predecessor. The postmaster soon
observed that she mailed many letters 10
her native town. Of which bali we're ac-
dressed to her mother and the rest

any rate-and that he was young and
her admirer was the prompt inference
Of the amiable, oficial busybody, who
considered himself an expert In judging
iove-letters from the outside. Ordi-
narily, he delighted in love affair; In
deed. he had been known to follow the
progress and vicissitudes Of local lovers
with such keen interest that at the first
slaekening in their correspondence be

sixth Sense BY Which Tiny Creatures
Communicate at Great
Distances.

Not only the unworthy sluggard
might observe the ant and other in
sects and profit thereby. Science each
day adds TO the wonders which these
little creatures are capable OF and puts
human creatures to shame, says the
New York Herald.
This time II is a sixth sense which
noted scientist has discovered many
insects to be fortunate enough to pos
sess. Al least they are able to com
municate with one another at great
distances
This professor had two aiIanthus
trees in his yard and these suggested
the idea to him OF obtaining from Ja-
pan some eggs Of the ailanthns silk
worm He got a few. Matched the lar
yaae and watched anxiously for the ap-
pearanee OF the first moths from the
cocoons. He put one Of the moths in
wicker cage and hung it on one OF
the ailanthus trees. This was female
moth. On the same evening he took a
male moth to a cemetery, a mile and
8 half away, and let him loose. having
previously marked him by tying a silk
cord about his abdomen, so as to be
able to identify him. The idea was to
find ont IL the two moths would come
together for the purpose Of mating.
these being the only ones Of their spe-
cies within a distance Of hundreds of
miles This power Of locating each
other had been previously observed In
these insects. In the morning The two
moths were found to be in the same
cage. the female having been able to
attract her mate from q distance Of a
mile and half
Comparatively little Is known about
the ordinary senses Of insects. Most
OF them see well. the eyes Of many be. |
ing far more elaborate than those ofthe |
human being. The eyes of common /
house flies are believed to be better
fitted than the human eye for observ- |
ing objects in motion. though these
creatures are short-sighted. That in
sects have the sense OF taste cannot |
bo doubted when it Is observed how |
nice they are in their selection Of /
foods. That they have smell is a mat
ter Of common observation. Most in. |
sects are deaf to sounds which are
heard by human beings. At the same |
time. there is no doubt that they make
and hear sounds which are entirely out /
Of our range Of hearing.
Certain senses in insects appear to
be beyond comprehension. The neu-
ters among ants, Known as the term
ties" are blind. and yet they VIII re-
duce a beam of wood in their burrow-
ings without once gnawing to the sur
face. Al analogy is found among ami
mails. A bat in . lighted room. though
blinded as to sight, viii fiy In all d.
rections with great swiftness and with
infallible certainty OF avoiding con
