ST. LOUIS, MO-, Oct. 2. (SpeciaD
For the first time within the mem
DRY of the present generation Chief
Executive of the nation today arrived
in the Mound City by steamboat and
departed from the city in the same
manner. President Theodore Roose-
welt, on board the steamboat Missis-
sippi from Keokuk, reached st. Louis
shortly after o'clock this morning.
Accompanying him on another craft
were the members of the Inland Wa
terways Commission.
The President found st. Louis
awaiting his arrival in gala attire.
Steamboats, and other craft gaily be-
decked with flags filled the river. Not
since the palny days before the war
has st. Louis seen SO many steam
boats at one time. They came from
Evansville, Cairo, Alton, Kansas
City, Keokuk and other river points
and brought delegations of business
men and others DESTROYS of impress
ing upon the President and the mem
bers of the waterways commission
the Importance of the river traffic
and the urgent necessity for i'm
provements in the Mississippi and it's
chief tributaries. AS the Presidents
boat came in sight it was greeted
with deafening shrieks from the
steamboat whistles, which were ech-
oed by the cheers of the thousands
of people who lined the river front
and occupied positions of vantage on
the wharfs and on the two great
bridges spanning the Mississippi riv-
er here.

Alive With River Craft.


Every available steamboat, tug,
launch, sailboat, roWbOat, and raft
that could be bought, rented, borrow
ed or stolen for the day was pressed
into service, presenting a scene of
activity such as has never before
been witnessed on the Mississippi
Every boat provided with whistle
made use of it to the fullest extent
when the Presidents boat appeared
in sight. Despite the enthusiasm of
the welcome to the chief executive,
the great object of the demonstration
was not forgotten, and every vessel car
ried an immense banner with the
words: Fourteen feet through the
valley" while a great chorus sang:
dig Her Deep Through Dixie. ;"
1t was a distinguished assemblage
that greeted the President when he
landed near the foot of Locust street.
Included among those present were
the governors of more than twenty
States, members of Congress, the
mayor and other Representatives of
the City of st. Louis and reception
committee of the Business Mems
League, which had the general ar
rangements in charge.
Thorough precautions were taken
for the safety of the president dur
ing his stay in St Louis. In addition
to the usual detail of secret service
service men who accompany Presi-
dent Roosevelt on all his travels,
dozen cavalrymen, under command of
Colonel Evans of Jefferson Barracks,
acted as a body guard on the trip
from the river landing to the Jai AL
al building, where the President made
his address. Dozens of mounted po-
lice also followed the carriage, con-
stantly on the lookout for suspicious
characters.
Cheers to Teddy Everywhere.
The route lay through Washington
avenue, Twelfth street, Pine street,
Grand avenue, Lindell boulevard and
other leading throughfares. Flags
we're flying from every staff in the
downtown section, and the city was
bright with bunting. Pictures of
President Roosevelt greeted the eye
at every turn. Crowds lined the
STREETS, anxious for a glimpse at the
Chief Magistrate, and his appearance
was always the signal for tumultous
cheers.
After the exercises at the Jai Alai
building the President was escorted
to the Jefferson Hotel, where he was
entertained at luncheon. Covers were
laid for 400 and among the guests
were the visiting governors and num-
erous other persons of note. From
the hotel the Presidential party pro-
ceeded at once to the wharf to re-
embark on the Mississippi. The de-
parture was the signal for another
great river demonstration similar to
that which had greeted the Presi-
dents arrival in the morning Scores
of boats will accompany the Presi-
dents boat down the river as far as
Cairo.

from one of the directors high
up in the Chautauqua associa-
ton was a fake, and further
goes so far as to state that one
night ''pandemonium reigned
supreme and whiskey too-the
grounds being covered the next
morning with empty whiskey
bottles' and that said director
was afraid to tell the truth"
Now, that a few, but not very
many of the boys did imbibe and
perhaps rather freely, we do not
for a moment doubt, but that
they in general behaved as dis
gracefully on the Chautauqua
grounds as our brother editor
would have his readers think,
we very much doubt. Of course
We were not present on the
grounds, as the editor of the
Leeds News says he was, during
the time Of these alleged shame
full proceedings, but we have
quoted the words of a director
who was there continually dur
ing the whole session, he and
his family living on the grounds.
The News further backs up it's
assertions by saying that it will
give additional information with
plenty of good names to back it.
We doubtit we very much doubt
it. AS far as the Inter Oceans
information is concerned, We
still have the communication
containing the statements made
to us by the afore said director
and if it will ease the mind Of
the editor of the Leeds New!
to inspect the same we shall
cheerfully show it to him. will

thereto.

STEER CLEAR OF THEM.
It would be we'll for proprie-
tors of pool halls in small towns
throughout the state, to steer
clear of the four manufacturers
of a beverage which they are
pleased to dignity by the name
of malt. That is, as far as prom
Uses go, at least. The pool room
proprietors have of late been
deluged with reading material
from these same manufacturers,
who, besides claiming that their
ware was notwithstanding in
effect, further stated that they
would fully stand by and protect
any customer who got into trou-
BILE through the sale of their
wares, it is said.
It is alleged that when Mat
Sandie, the man who was arrest
ed at Crary, charged with selling
Intoxicating liquor without a IL
cense, applied to one Feinstein,
the Grand Forks gentleman who
sold him the malt, for hail he
Was Indignantly refused. Ac-
companied by Deputy Sheriff
Frye the accused even went to
Grand Forks and asked Fem
stein personally. Again he was
refused. Sandie finally pro-
cured bail from other sources,
but this only goes to demonstrate
that the Grand Forks dealers are
seemingly not as good as their
word.
