Washington's second swearing in
at Philadelphia in 1898 was the first
March inaugural.
Adams was inaugurated in the
House Of Representatives, Philadel-
phia. Jefferson's was the first at
Washington. Monroe established the
precedent for taking the oath on the
east portico Of the Capitol, although
he was sworn the second time in the
House on account of the intense cold.
j. Q. Adams. his successor, also took
the oath indoors. Jackson re-estab-
lished the custom which has prevailed
since. Jackson was the first Presi-
cent to attract a large pilgrimage of
admirers to attend the inaugural cere-
monies.
German sharpshooters were dis
tributed upon the roofs Of the houses
lining the route of Lincoln's first in
augural procession to and from the
Capitol.
Grants first inaugural parade
marched in eight grand divisions. APP
preciating Grants strained relations
with Johnson, the inaugural commit
tee proposed to drive the two to the
Capitol in separate carriages abreast.
but this angered johnson. He alb
sented himself from the entire cere-
mony, anu GranI rOQe 10 the CapltOl

Grover Cleveland's first Inaugural
tion eclipsed all previous ceremonies
In one respect, the crowds from out
side numbering 100000. The hold
ing Of the ball that year in the Pen
sion Office set precedent followed
ever since. Although Benjamin Har-
rison's Inauguration day was prob
ably the wettest, $4,000 men paraded
in the rain, and the ball broke all
records with an attendance of 1000,
while the inaugural committee real
lied a surplus of $4,000.
A unique feature Of McKinley's
first Inauguration was a mounted de-
tachment Of special aids, composed
Of the sons Of ex-Presidents. He re-
viewed his second parade within
large case of plate glass, placed in

committees were thereupon appoint
ed to notify Washington and Adams,
the victors, and the latter managed to
coach 1t from Massachusetts, to New
york In time to appear at his post on
April 20.
But the ship of state had to drift
ten days more without a skipper and
with only the first mate in command.
Meanwhile Washington was Journey
Ing to New York on horseback, pass
Ing through triumphal arches and
over pathways OF flowers strewn by
pretty maidens In the towns traversed.
At last he arrived at Governor Clin-
tons house, in New York, and on the
morning OF April 80 his carriage was
thence escorted by body OF troops
and civic parade to the old City
Hall. This set the precedent for an
inaugural parade.

The m0ntn or Aprll was wan ing. And on one of it's Sabbath days as a teacher in the Sunday School of the Presbyterian Mis- sion at Sitka was calling his class roll there was one name to which there was no response. To the question Where is Paul Scott'', came the answer "He is sleep ing. " "How long will he sleep?" Till judgement day." Thus had these boys learned with the story of the cross, the glorious hope of a resurrection through faith in a risen Christ and Saw four. Yes, all that was mortal of Paul Scott was Sleering under thespruce and berry cad mounds of the cemetery, whither it had been borne in solemn procession by those who had been his com panions and playmates in life.
 Paul was of pure native paren- tage and his home was Ketchikan
 He entered the Industrial Training School at Sitka on March 23, 1905. He then was nine years of age and brought with him even at that tender age, the symptoms and germs of tub erculosis to which he ultimately succumbed on April 2l, 1909.
 Paul was known among his com rades as Brownie" and his pie ture appeared in one of the is sues of The Home Mission Mon thly of 1906 as a typical product of mission work among the na- tives of Alaska. A touching in- cident in connection with this is that Rev. Mir. Bromley and Mir. Parks, neither of whom were then members of our staff, re- membered seeing the picture, little dreaming that they should three years later become person ally acquainted with the little Alaskan whose death it is now our sad duty to record.

he spoke of three needs of the
 native people of Alaska. First and
 most important was their need
 of the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
 Second the need of learning
 to work. Third the need of
 school. In his address he struck
 a high note, asking help for the people of Alaska in their struggle for a higher and better life, a life in which they will be depend ent upon nogovernment or insti- tuition. His words had a prophetic ring and we believe that the day is coming when the people of Alaska will support their own
 schools and churches. Presbytery instructed the home mission com mittee of the presbytery to urge the home board to open new work at Ketchikan and Petersburg and also Killisnoo, should it be found best after the committee appointed to examine the field had reported. During the past year no new churches were organ ized in the presbytery. Now the conditions are such that we must hesitate on longer. If we are go- ing to be something more than cumberers of the ground we must make progress and open new
 fields. After finishing the busi- ness the presbytery was again
 taken up by the Tornado and car ried to Howkan, Klingquan and

How to Prevent Tender Feet.

One woman boasts Of not knowing
what it is to have sore feet, and the
secret of her success Is very simple
She takes time once a week TO soak
her feet for almost an hour, and in
this way she keeps them tender, but
not too much so. and she has never
known what it was to have n corn,
bunion or other a1lliction. A small foot
tub is filed with warm water in which
there is n plentiful supply Of melted
white soap. She sits with her feet in
the water and to keep the time from
being too tedious reads a book. When
the water begins to cool she realizes
the soaking process IS at IN end. After
drying the feet she attends to the nails
and cuts them across, merely clipping
the nail corners, because rounded nails
will eventually penetrate the flesh, and
the torment Of ingrowing nails is most
severe. a plentiful amount Of talcum
powder is used and this insures con-
fort No stockings with seams are
worn, the shoes lit snugly, and Il shoe
too large is considered as Injurious ms
one too tight. At the first appearance
of corn it is never tampered with.
but the'spot Is treated with turpentlne
and ere long it disappears.
How to Dry a Sweater.
Try drying the sweater on a Goa,
hanger and see how well 1t will keep
its shape. If It is pinned to the line ar
hung over Il chair, no matter how care
ful one may be, 1t is sure to be pulled
out Of shape in some place or other.

Auto Line and Local Garage

Messrs Thorpe and company started
their automobile business last Satur-
day. Three fiue machines of the
White Co. make arrived on Saturday,
and were installed in the promises
heretofore occupied by M. Ford as a
blacksmith shop, next to the Nation
al hotel. An expert chauffeur has been
engaged to run and take care of these
road machines.
They started business in good
shape Sunday. On that day one
machine took the Jackson business
men to lone to compete at baseball
with business nine of that place.
Another machine was put to work in
conveying passengers between Jakson
and the baseball grounds beyond the
Zeila. charging % cents for the round
trip. 1t did thriving business.
M onday morning an auto stage line
was started to Stockton. The first
trip it carried three passengers from
this city. The second day the passen-
gers were toonumerous to be carried
on one machine, so another auto was
called into action. The fare is some
what lower than by rail, and besides
there is the additional advantage of
being able to connect with the pas
senger train at Stockton that reaches
San Francisco between and 3 in the
afternoon. saving of about . hours
In time. The auto business has start
ed very auspiciously. Both Stockton
and Sacramento auto stages travel via
lone.
