history of inaugurations the various
branches of the government were ush-
cred into the hall with ceremonious

similar to those of his first Inaugural
ton. In the evening there was an In
auguration ball ut Davis hotel, which
is now the Metropolitan.

Presidential Inaugurations
From Washington to Lincoln
All the Way From "Jeffersonian Simplicity"
to the Pomp and State of Modern Times.

~ URING the early years Of the
government, before the capital
was moved to Washington. the
induction Of a president. al
though ceremony of great dignity
and solemnity, was very small and
select affair.
In New York for nearly fortnight
preceding the great day Of April 80,
1889, every tavern and boarding house
had been thronged with visitors. and
on the day before the inauguration
every private house was filled with
guests from all parts Of the Union.
In the center Of the procession. pre-
ceded by the senate and followed by
representatives. walked George Wash
ington. On reaching Federal hall the
troops formed line on each side Of
the way. through which the president.

WILLIE wHITLA is SAFE.
Kidnappers Return Boy and Get
$4,000 Demanded.

Cleveland, Ohio, March 22.-Little
Willie Whitla, who has caused the
police Of the country endless worry
since he was kidnapped from school
in Sharon, Pa, last Thursday, was
returned to his father at the Hollen-
den Hotel here tonight at $50
O'Clock.
In compliance with an arrange
ment entered into between the kid
mapped boys father and an agent Of
the kidnappers here to-day, the boy
was placed on street car on the
outskirts Of the city and started to
the hotel shortly after o'clock
Two boys, G. w. Ramsey and Ed
ward Mahoney, recognized the lad
on the car and, taking him in charge,
conducted him to his father, who
was in waiting. The boy wandered
about the hotel lobby unannounced
for several minutes, asking bell boys
for his father, before the latter
knew his son was in the big foyer.
The moment the anxious parent
heard that a strange boy was in the
hotel he rushed across the lobby,
grasped him in his arms and smoth-
cred his face with kisses.
An attempt had been made to dis
guise the lad. He wore a pair Of
smoked glasses and large tan cap,
which was pulled down over his ears,
and the father said 1t would have
been difficult to have recognized the
boy in such garb had he passed
him on the street.
Ransom was Paid.
So Before retiring for the night, Mr..
N>hitla admitted that he had paid
$4,000 to the woman in the candy
store. 1t was in currency and bills.
The woman did not count the money.
Mr.. Whitla believes the woman was
an Italian, but refuses to disclose
her identity.

Man Kills Another by Foolhardy and
Criminal Act.
(Greenville News, 23d.D

..... (GTeenVllle news, Z3d.)
John Trammell, a young white
man, was shot and killed by John
Gwinn at Greer late Sunday after
noon. The killing occurred at Sloan
Brothers store, just across the line
in Spartanburg county, and is declar-
ed by Gwinn to have been uninten-
tional.
1t seems that Gwinn and Mr..
Sloan were in the latter's store and
the door was closed. Trammell came
to the store and raped at the door
to gain admittance. Gwinn picked
up a pistol, which was lying on a
counter, and fired it at the door.
The bullet passed through the door
and struck Trammell in the breast,
causing almost instant death. Gwinn
and the party in the store with him
secured medical aid at once, but the
bullet Lad done its work before aid
could reach the side Of Trammell.
Thr coroner at Spartanburg was
notified and the jury Of inquest re-
turned verdict to the effect that the
deceased came to his death from a
pistol ball wound inflicted by the
hands of John Gwinn. Gwinn sur
rendered to the officers and was
taken to Spartanburg and lodged in
the county jail He is quoted as say
ing that he did not have any idea
that the pistol was loaded and was
shocked when upon pulling the trig-
ger it fired.

We were very favorably impressed
with the system of teaching and the
equipment in each room, and enjoyed
our stay among all from the knee
trouser boys to the grown-up boys
and girls.
1t is matter Of regret and disap-
pointment, not only to the teachers
and pupils, but to the public gene
rally, that no public exercises can be
had at the close of the term in May
owing to lack of room. This is an
event always looked forward to with
keen interest by the public. AS is
known, the auditorium had to be
cut into class rooms last summer,
and the room for public exercises has
Lot been added yet.
The Bounty Land school, taught
by Miss BERTHE Smith, has sent

that the Sunday and week day
schools in the county help in this
cause. A penny Is asked from each
pupil on the first Sunday in April
and the money sent to Miss Shelor,
and the chair will be purchased at
once. We presume the chair is for
an invalid.
