CHAPTER ~.
The News At Ripley.

Miss Molly Mcdonald had departed
for the west-carefully treasuring her
fathers detailed letter of instruction
filled with interest and enthusiasm.
She was an army girl, full of conf
cence in herself and delighted at the
prospect of an unusual summer
Moreover, her natural spirit of adj
venture had been considerably stimu-
lated by the envious comments of her
schoolmates, who apparently believed
her wondrously daring to venture such
a trip, the apprehensive advice of her
teachers, and much reading, not very
judiciously chosen, relative to pioneer
life on the plains. The possible hard
ships of the long journey alone did
not appall her in the least. She had
ways found pleasant and attention
companionship. Being a wholesome,
pleasant-faced girl, with eyes decided
ly beautiful, and an attractive person
ality, the making Of new friendships
was never difficult OF course, the
stage ride would be an entirely fresh
and precarious experience, but then
her father would doubtless meet her
before that. or send some officer to act
as escort. Altogether the prospect
appeared most delightful and alluring.
The illness of the principal of Sun
nycrest had resulted in the closing of
the school some few days earlier than
had been anticipated. and 1t was SO
lonely there after the others had de-
parted that Miss Molly fastened her
packing and promptly Joined the ex-
odus. Why not? She could wait the

"Man Of the People"
When Andrew Jackson was elected
in the fall of 1928 the people of the
west and the radical elements of the
south scored triumph and he was
hailed as man of the people" This
character was emphasized on the day
of his Inauguration the following
March, for never before had such a
huge motley throng gathered in Wash
ington. Jackson's wife had died not
long before, and he asked that the
ceremonies be made very simple, but

whether in large body or small, they

stage station near the ford of the
Arkansas he could learn the truth.
1t was a waterless desert stretching
between the Cimarron and the Arkan-
sas, consisting of almost dead level
of alkali and sand, although toward
the-northern extremity the sand had
been driven by the ceaseless wind
into grotesque hummocks. The trail,
cut deep by traders wagons earlier
in the spring, was still easily trace

and Hamlin as yet felt no need of
caution-this was country the In
dams would avoid, the only danger
being from some raiding party from
the south. At early dawn he came
trotting down into the Arkansas val

ness of the opposite bank. There,
plainly in view, were the deep ruts
of the main trail running close in
against the bluff. His tired eyes
caught no symbol of life either up or

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

fTOm Inc very DSBluulu6 VI LILO ho
tion, 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 1888,
New York was the temporary capital
of the young nation, and it was there
that the ceremony took place aftel
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,
N. j., on April 20, he entered barge
.rowed by ~ 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 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
filled since sunrise with waiting
crowds, and the enthusiasm was in
tense. In the senate chamber Wash
Iington 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
a 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.
jefferson Story False.
If you are a good Democrat, no
doubt you believe that Thomas Jeffer-
son rode unattended to the capitol on
horseback, tied his horse to the
fence, and was inaugurated with less
ceremony than would attend the TAX
ing Of office by a keeper Of a dog
pound. Such is the old story, but it
is pure myth and is first found in
book of travels in the United
States written by John Davis, an Eng
lishman. Davis asserted that he was
an eyewitness Of the simple ceremony
which he described, but it has been

proper date at Kansas City or Fort
Ripley just as well, enjoying herself
meanwhile amid new environment,
and no doubt she would encounter
some of her fathers army friends who
would help entertain her pleasantly.
AS a result of this earlier departure
she reached Ripley some two days in
advance of the prearranged schedule,
and in spite of her young strength and
enthusiasm, most thoroughly tired
out by the strain Of continuous travel
Her one remaining desire upon ar
rival was for bed, and actuated by
this necessity, when she learned that
the army post was fully two miles
from the town, she accepted proffered

proved that he was not in Wash
ington at the time.
The Inauguration of Jefferson, which
marked the defeat Of the Federalist
party of Hamilton, Washington,
Adams and Jay, was the first to take
place in Washington. The newly es-
tablished national capital. then but
a few months old, contained only 5000
inhabitants, many Of them negroes;
the houses were mostly huts and the
streets muddy roads. The big event
was thus described in the Philadelphia
Aurora Of March IL; 1901:
"At an early hour on Wednesday,
March 4. the city of Washington pre-
scented a spectacle of uncommon ami

The first women's paper in Greece

in 1873 under the name Of the Ladies'

the masses we're too hilarious to heed
the request. The weather was pleas
ant and the east front of the capitol
was used for the first time for the in
auguration. In front of 1t surged
10000 persons who were restrained
only by a great iron chain. Jackson
rode to the capitol on 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 ven
geance.
1.-The president was literally pursued
by motley concourse Of people, rid
ing, running, helter-skelter, striving
who should first gain admittance into
the executive mansion, where 1t 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. 1t was the peoples day, the
peoples president, and the people
would rule"
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, 1S41. BY this time trans
portation was made easier by the
building of railways and the crowd
that flocked to Washington was i'm
mense. 1t was much better behaved
than that which "honored" Jackson
but 1t was hungry for offices.
Cold, wintry blasts swept the streets
of Washington that March day, ant
Harrison, already old and rather
feeble, rode his white horse without
cloak or overcoat, and with his ha
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 lei
the procession back to the White
House. The exposure was too much TO
him and within one month he wa
