 Woodrow Wilson became presi- dent last Tuesday amid ceremon- ies and tumultuous scenes of pop ular greeting.
 Standing at the east front of the capitol, he took the oath of office at 1885. administered by Chief Justice White.
 In his inaugural address he made fervid appeal to all patri- otic men for council and aid, say ing: "This is not a day of tri- umph, but a day of dedication. Mems hearts wait upon us and mems lives hang in the balance. Mems hopes call upon us today to say what we will do. I sum- mon all pariotic, forward-looking men to my side. God helping me will not fail them if they but counsel and sustain me-.
 Vice President Marshall was inaugurated in the senate cham Der at 12:34.
 At the conclusion of the cere- monies the presidential party hurried back to the White House, where Taft bade goodby to all, and Wilson shortly afterward took his place to review the parade.
 Delay of the Senate in adjourn ing caused the inaugural to be- set back half an hour. Upon it's adjournment, the diplomatic corps. in full court dress, was ushered in, followed by the just ices of the supreme court in som Der robes.
 President Taft and MT. Wilson took seats in the front of the room. Marshall took the oath at 12:34 and then began his inaugu- ral address
 Marshall administered the oath to members of the senate, and Taft and Wilson were greeted with loud cheers as they emerged from the main door. General Wood and staff held the space clear in front of the stand, across which loomed hundreds of cam e as and motion picture machines trained on the single spot where Taft turned the mantle of office oyer to Wilson. Wilson took the oath at 1:35.
 As Taft and Wilson were en- t ring the presidents room, they i spied Bryan in the corridor and invited him to enter.
 T don't know whether I can. l am not president, you know" said Bryan.
 Well, I am still president. said Taft, and 1 invite you in. Bryan entered.
 Among the first bills that Taft signed were the rivers and har- bors, public buildings, agriculture and general deficiency measures
 Meanwhile Mrs. Wilson and daughters entered the senate gal lery. Mrs. Wilson wore a tan cloth dress, with brown silk coat and a small hat to match. Mar garet Wilson wore a blue silk p)plin: Jessie lavender broad cloth, and Eleanor a bright blue cloth dress.

Monroe City, Mo-, Dec. rs.
The greatest fire in the history of
Monroe City started here at 12:40 p.
m. Four business buildings were de
stroyed, with a total loss estimated
at $50, 900.
The buildings burned are: Conway
& Proctor lumber yard and buildings
and contents, loss $4,000; Briscow
& Longmiere machine shop, buildings
and contents, loss $40, 1000; Goenz &
McAlester livery barn, buildings and
partial contents, loss $4,000; Daw-
son & Settle machine shop, building
and contents, valued at $4,000, and
numerous other small buildings.
The wind was high, and 1t was
first thought that the whole business
section of the city would be destroy
ed. The wind. however, varied at
very opportune time, driving the
flames in a southwesterly direction
and away from the business district.
Limited means for fighting fire
together with elements of nature
made 1t almost impossible tc
control the flames. Through the eff
forts OF the bucket brigade and the
Fire Dept, nearly all dwelling hous
es, the electric light plant and Grace
