send telegrams TO towns through
which he was 10 pass today saying

saw him through the window and
cheered. He arose and there was
another cheer. He walked to the
door and thrust his head through.

greeting and the colonial could not
resist He walked ont onto the plat
form and in an instant men and boys
were scrambllng upon the railing try

After he had shaken hands the
colonel stepped back and hesitated
