The inaugural ceremony took place in

Office being administered by Chief JUS

On Grover Clevelands second inaugu.

On the contrary the day on which
Mckinley took the oath of office the

At his second Inauguration rain fell

conducted in his own home in Wash
ington, without pomp or display of
any kind, In view of the grief stricken
city and country.
The Inauguration Of President Polk
was, to an extent, q personal disap
pointment to him, as the weather was
execrable.
President Zachary Taylor was not
inaugurated on March 4, that date fall
ing on a Sunday. The old fighter was
fond Of pomp and ceremony, and the
inaugural procession was one Of the
finest up to that time that had been
seen In the country.
Fillmore, through the death Of Pres
ident Taylor, came into the Office of
the presidency without special ceremo
ny, although the oath of office was ad-
ministered to him In the usual way
before the congress. Pierce and Blu
chanan were inaugurated In no dis
tinctive fashion.
Troops Guarded Lincoln.
When Lincoln came into the presi
dency the entire country was trem-
bling with apprehension. For the
first time in the history of the United
States regular troops had been ordered
to Washington, not for display, but for
protection. Although Lincoln himself
expressed no fear, extraordinary pre-.
cautions were taken to preserve his
personal safety. When he delivered
his inaugural address on the east front
Of the capitol, In the presence of an
immense throng, his rival, Stephen A
Douglas, stood at his side and held his
hat. Following the formal inaugural
ceremony. Lincoln rendered to the pop

He Is still the president But on the
way back from the capitol, being only
a private citizen. he will sit on the left,
and Mr. Wilson, now being president
will sit on the right.
Four horses will draw the presi.
dents carriage Facing Mr.. Taft and
Mr.. Wilson will be two members of
the senate committee, probably the
third member occupying the next car
rage with the incoming vice president
Arrangements In this respect are not
subject to any very definite rule. In
any event, arriving. under escort Of
the military, at the senate wing Of the
capitol, the presidential party will be
met by the sergeant-at-arms of the
senate and other officials and conduct
ed to the vice presidents room.
Mr.. Taft's Last Act.
Mr.. Taft, however, will go to the
presidents room at the other end of
the corridor which separates the sen
ate chamber from the marble room,
there to seat himself at q table and
perform the last duties of his admin
istration by glancing over and signing
bills which have been passed at the
last moment and which, If his sigma
ture were lacking, would fail to become
laws.
Before the noon hour actually arrives
the hands Of the big clock In the sen
ate chamber will be pushed back by
the doorkeeper with long pole so as
to gain a few fictional but important
minutes. Meanwhile the galleries will
have filed with privileged spectators,

dainty costumes will lend attractive
color to the spectacle.

The induction of Andrew Johnson
into the Office OF president, following
Immediately upon the assassination or
Lincoln, was conducted In the private
room of hotel No ceremony attend
ed 1t.
The greatest spectacular display
made up to that time was at the inau'
guration Of President Grant. 1t was
purely a military demonstration and.
although magnificent In all of Its fea-
lures, was married to an extent by the
refusal of his predecessor to ride with
Grant to the capitol In the same car
rage.
It was a bleak. cold and dismal day
on which Grant was inaugurated the
second time Many visiting organiza
lions declined on account Of the re
pellent weather 20 participate In the
parade, and many persons who did
take part In 1t. including some naval
cadets, paid for their patriotism with
their lives
On account of the manner of the
election of Rutherford b. Hayes II was
deemed necessary. as In the case Of
Lincoln, to exercise the utmost precau.
tons to insure his personal safety.
The oath of Office was administered to
him in private on March 3, but the
ceremony was repeated on stand at
the east front of the capitol on March 3.
When Garfield entered the senate
chamber on March 4. just prior to TAX
ing the oath OF office, one of the first
men to greet him was General Han
cock, the unsuccessful Democratic
candidate for the presidency.
Arthur Took Oath Twice.
In succeeding the martyred Garfield
to the presidency Chester A. Arthur
twice took the oath of Office. On re-
ceipt of the news of Garfleld's death
he took the obligation at his home In
New York city. Two days later the
oath again was administered to him in
Washington In the vice president S
room on the senate side Of the capitol.
No spectacular ceremonies attended his
assuming Office.

Inauguration of Grover Cleveland. The

ing for the march back to the White
House, and hundreds and thousands of
people along the route are lmpa tlently
waiting Crowds throng the sidewalks
to the curbs, which are protected by
ropes under vigilant guard by police
men, and the shabby mile of Pennsyl
vania avenue is for the nonce made
beautiful by profuse decorations, every
building being adorned with flags and
bright colored bunting.
Arriving at the White House, the
new president seats himself in the box
at the foot Of his private stand and
reviews the procession, a task which
takes something like three hours to
pass, and he already has had a IA
tiguing morning.
This will end the ceremonies incident
to the Inauguration of the twenty-sev-
enth president of the United States.
The fact that it does end here estab-
fishes a precedent which is likely to
be followed for all time. Heretofore
it had been the custom to have the
world famed inaugural ball, and II
had become an occasion that every
one dreaded. The new president and
his family approached the event, aft.
err already having spent a hard day at
the ceremonies incident to the inaugu-
ration, with the same degree Of pleas
ure that marks visit to the dentist.
Time and again have incoming presi.
dents been on the verge Of calling off,
the ball. They hesitated to create the
precedent Of abolishing a time estab-
lished institution. But Mr. Wilson
concluded that If he were going to
get his nine hours sleep every night
during his administration he might as
well start In right and not stay up for
ball the first night. Then, again,
the ball kept the pension clerks out Of
work for two weeks. So he dropped
the gentle hint that the ball ought tn
b dropped And It was dropped.

HOW EDWARD I. GOT HIS
WEDDING GIFTS.

When King Edward !. Of Eng
land was very sick he made a
solemn vow that II restored to
health he would undertake an
other crusade. When he recov-
cred, however, Palestine seemed
a long way off, and he compro-
missed by driving the Jews out
Of one Of his French provinces.
Pleased with his success In this,
he determined to try II on a
larger scale, and Danish the de-
scendants Of Abraham from Eng
land. SO he Issued a proclama-
tlon commanding all persons Of
Jewish descent to leave tho
country before certain date,
under penalty Of death. He ora
cleusIy permitted them TO take
along a very small portion Of
their worldly goods, and enough
money to pay their travelling
expenses. The rest Of their
property he appropriated to his
own use and that Of his friends.
This brutal expulsion of tho
jews he doubtless considered
most timely, for shortly after
ward his three daughters were
married, and he was able to
give each Of them Q grand we'd
ding, and much jeweIry Of fabu-
Ious value.

Public School Notes.

The reports are out this week for tn,
first month. Although great deal ha!
been accomplished it will take another
month for pupils and teachers to be
come acquainted and better understand
one another.
We were all glad to have our former
instructor, Miss Prideaux, spend last
Wednesday forenoon with US.
The first rhetorical program, entitled
Southern Lights and Shadows, was
given Friday afternoon at the nigh
school. Il consisted of readings and
recitations in negro dialect of both hui
morous and serious nature, together
with music by the girls glee club and
boys quartet, In spite of the unfavor-
able weather few outsiders were
present. This not only SHOWS the in
terest of the public in this work but il
encourages the pupils in the prepare
tons of future programs. We hope to
entertain more visitors at our second
program, entitled Northern Skies, "
which will take place Oct. "a.
Among our visitors Of Friday after
noon we note: Mr. Knight, Mrs. Briggs,
Mr.. and Mrs. Jas. Brewer, Mr.. Walsh,
Mrs. Varcoe, Mrs. Johnson, Beulah
White and Clara Rink.
Our boys were victorious over Oar
lington in a good game of foot ball last
Saturday. The score stood 10 to 0.
We had large number of rooters out,
among whom were pupils, teachers,
members of the board of education and
those interested in our school and its
sports. Loyal school spirit was shown
by all present.
We are all glad to see Mr.. Dewald
who spent the past week in Dubuque
back at work again.
