not. for in nearly every county in

The chief bookkeeper in a. large
business house in one of our great

coffee did for him. (Tea is just as
injurious because it contains caffeine,
the same drug found in coffee.)
"My wife and I drank our first cup

How George Washington Became
President at Federal Hall in
New York City.
FALSE STORY OF JEFFERSON
'sfmplicity" of His Inauguration a
Myth Traced to English Writer
jackson Fairly Mobbed by
Motley Throng.
BY EDWARD WEBSTER.

From the very beginning of the ma
ton, inauguration day has generally
been a day of display and festivity
for the people of the United States,
though at times national conditions
have made it an occasion more solemn
than joyous. But always the induction
of a new president has been a note
worthy and interesting event.
When George Washington was in
augurated the first president in 1889,
New York was the temporary capital
Of the young nation, and it was there
that the ceremony took place after
General Washington had ridden from
his home at Mount Vernon in what
was much like a triumphal progress.
Welcomed to New York.
Arriving at Elizabethtown Point,
NJ j., on April %, he entered a barge
rowed by IL pilots clad in white,
and passed through the Kill Won Kull
into New York harbor, which was full
Of all manner of craft gaily decorated
and loaded with cheering crowds. The
Spanish man of war Galveston broke
out the colors of all nations, and
fired a salute of 10 guns, to which the
American frigate North Carolina re-
sponded.
Finally, on April 80, all was ready
for the Inauguration. Washington
was escorted to Federal hall, then
the capitol, which stood on the site of
the present sub-treasury at Wall and
Broad streets. The streets had been
filed since sunrise with waiting
crowds, and the enthusiasm was in
tense. In the senate chamber Wash
ington was joined by Adams, Knox,
Hamilton, Won Steuben and few 9th
ers, and all Of them appeared on the
balcony. Robert r. Livingston, chan
cellor Of New York, administered the
oath and cried Long live George
Washington, president of the United
States" whereupon there broke out
mighty tumult of cheering, bell-ring-
ing and the noise of cannon. Re-
turning to the senate chamber, Pres
ident Washington read his inaugural
address and the history of the
United States under the constitu.
ton began.

ant and the east front of the capitol
was used for the first time for the in
auguration. In front OF it surged
10000 persons who were restrained
only by a great iron chain. Jackson
rode to the capitol on a white horse
and went through the ceremonies with
dignity, and started back to the White
House. Then began his troubles, for
the people broke loose with a ven
geance.
The president was literally pursued
by motley concourse of people, rid

who should first gain admittance into
the executive mansion, where it was
understood that refreshments would
be distributed" wrote a contempt
rary, Mrs Samuel Harrison Smith. In
their mad rush the crowds smashed
furniture and dishes and seized the
food as if they were starving. 1.-THE
confusion became more and more al
palling. At one moment the presi.
dent, who had retreated until he was
pressed against the wall of the apart
ment, could only be secured against
serious danger by a number of gen.
tlemen linking arms and forming
themselves into a barrier. 1t was
then that the windows were thrown
open, and the living throng found an
outlet. It was the peoples day, the
peoples president, and the people

Too Much for Harrison.
For IL years the Democrats con.
trolled the destinies of the country.
and then the Wings elected William
Henry Harrison, who was inaugurated
March 4, 1841. BY this time trans

building of railways and the crowd
that focked to Washington was i'm.

than that which "honored" Jackson.
but it was hungry for Offices.
Cold, wintry blasts swept the streets
of Washington that March day, and
Harrison, already old and rather
feeble, rode his white horse without
cloak or overcoat, and with his hat
off in salute to the cheering crowds
The line of march was unprecedent
eddy long, and so was the inaugural
address, and then the president led
the procession back to the White
House. The exposure was too much fol
him and within one month he was
dead.
When Lincoln Took Hold.
Immensely dramatic was the first
inauguration of Abraham Lincoln in
1861. From the day of his election
threats against his life were numer.
Gus, and detectives discovered and
foiled an organized plot to assassinate
him on his way to Washington. The
big bodies of troops that had been
employed at former inaugurations
merely to add pomp to the occasion
now were used for the protection OF
the president.
The day had opened cloudy, chilly
and dismal, but as the president step.
