HON'OHS TO HAJtUISOX.

OAi.usnuno, 111., Oct. u.— Prosidont Harrison roachod l'coria at 11:35 Tuosday night and was welcomed by Mayor Clark and tho members of tho city council, who escorted tho party to their hotel. Thero woro no spuochos, owing to tho lateness of the hour. Tho President aroso early and at a. m. was serenaded by a band of music at tho National Hotel. A few mi nntoa later tho mayor and city con noil, President Harrison at the accompanied by dose of the War. the Grand Army of tho Ropublic posts and a company of tho Illinois National Uuard, appeared to escort tho party to tho train. The march was a triumphal ono and all Peoria turned out to do homago to tho Chief Executive. At tho dopot over 5,000 people woro assomblod and tho President, being introduced by Mayor Starke, spoko briofly. At tho conclusion of tho speech Elsio Loslle Lydo, tho child actress, on bohalf of tho citizens of tho Grand Army post of Peoria, prosentod to tho Prosidont a boautiful bouquet The Prosidont stoopod and kissed her. Throo hoarty cheers were given for tho Prosidont as Mr. Bishop gave the signal and tho train pulled out of tho station. Breakfast was ready in tho dining-room of tho oar, aad tho President was served immediately after leaving tho station.

The President's train from Pooria was in chargo of F. C. Rico, superintendent of tho Chicago, Burlington & Quincy railroad, to Galesburg. The train. was pulled by an ongino in chargo of an engineer who was a membor of tho President's old brigade. Tills knight of tho tlirottlo was frank Ililton, a former membor of tho Ono Hundred and Second Illinois. Near Ualesburg, the President, after a roception of tho old veterans aboard tho train, wont forward with Secretary Tracy and greeted Enginoor Hilton as an old friend. On invitation* of tho latter, tho President and Secretary Tracy mounted tho englno aud rode in the cab with the engineer for a lew milos. To tho President the engineer gracefully yielded tho responsibility of pulling the whistle for stations and crossings, and tho firemen, turned over tho bell ropo to Secretary Tracy.

Tho reception nt GaloBburg was marked by the greatest enthusiasm. A tromondous crowd gathered at tho depot and cheered as tho train pulled in. The streets converging at tho [depot were thronged with people. A grand stand had been erected. It was surrounded by the crowd, and was bedeckod with flags. On the top of each of tho pillars which supported the arch over the stand a young lady stood impersonating tho GoddeBB of Liberty. Upon tho vast arcb boneatii which the Prosidont Btood wore tho words: "Wo Wolcomo Our President."

Shortly after 11 o'clock thero passed in review of the President in front of tho'stand, the veterans of tho Twentieth Army Corps, U,riU0 school children of Central Illinois, and thousands of citizens.

At the conclusion of tho parado tho party repaired to the speaker's stand in front of tho court-house, where Mayor Stevens formally welcomed tho President to Ualesburg.

Tho President responded briofly to tho address of welcome, thanking tho cltizons of Calesburg and Illinois for their cordial greeting, and acknowledging gracefully tho homage of tho college students and tho Phi Delta Theta Society. To tho old votorans here assembled ho extended tho greeting of comradeship. [Choors.] Tho presence of so many of tho former members of his old brigado and army corps was a pleasure to him, but tho absonco of those who had answered their last muster roll, gono to their last homo, mingled sadness with that pleasure, ilo hopod thoso annual reunions would continue for many yoars and that hiscomrados hero assembled would survive for many yoars to attend them. [Cheers.]

Continuing the President spoko in ofloct as follows: He expressc ibe Hope that an opportunity would occur sltnlte thi'tn alt by the hand and to assure them that since tho muster out liay ti11 hud borno them all In aHecllonate riinomliranco. Tbo distinction that Illinois mii?ht. claim In tills organization was that, giving equal bravery and loyalty to every man, Illinois furnished three-fifths of the lrliradi\ lAoplause.] The I'reslcknt said lie liail been greatly impressed with this great assemblage. Nowhere elso on eurth. nowhrrf exw.il under the stars and stripes, could such an assemblage be gathered. Theso were the people upon whose Godfearing consciences and undaunted faith the strength of this country rested. What were Presidents and Cablnots If there were lacking this law-abiding people. It was the one thought of t.hls country that men should bo governed us little as possible. It was not the policeman nor tiie soldier that made American homes safe. It was tin law-abiding Bontiment of the people, the sentiment that accorded to every other man what was bis and asked for cinch only wlr.it was his own. The war taught the world tliut that sontlmcnt was so strong ilial no associations, combinations or conspiracies could overthrow It. The Government would go on so long as in every local community thero was that thought prevailing, livery man shall obey tho law. When we allow any other standard of living to be set up, where is your security? Tho devotion of the people ol the United States was not—like that of some of our f-panish-Amcrlcan neighbors—to a man, but to a law, a constitution and a Hag.

In the procession of veterans to-day, the President said. we had retrospect in the column of children of the future. At the centennial QI 1889 in New York, he said, lie had made the suggestion that the hag bo taUen into til#

CR A WFORDSVILLE, INDIANA. THURSDAY. OCTOHF/R 9. l«oo

school houses and he was glad to know that In that Btate (New York) thero was a little drlU with the tlag every day.

Tho Prosidont was followed by Seorotary Tracy, who mode a brief speoch, oonflning his remarks chiefly to tho silver quostion in its relation to the agricultural problom. Qonoral Urosvonor, of Ohio, and others followed.

The party now repaired to Knox College, whore tho cornor-stono of the alumni hall was to bo laid by tho Prosidont. Dr. Nowton Bateman, president of Knox Collogo, pronounced tho invocation, and Prof. Milton Comstock road a sketch of tho origin and growth of tho collogo. Prof. J. A. Adams Introduced tho President, who spoke briofly.

Following this the -ornoi -stono was placed in position, snd the President, with a trowel, caref«illy closed It and coverod tho seams with mortar. Great applausi greeted this performance, which brought the ceremonies to an end.

While tho laying of tho corner-stone was In progress at tho collogo park elaborate arrangoments wore being mado for tho dining of tho Prosidont and party at the Onion Hotel. Room 14, upon tho parlor floor, had boon soleuted in which to lay tho spread, and it was decpratod with elegance and taste. Tho menu was rich, and to tho delicloui repast President Harrison and party wore ushered-,in at preclsoly a o'clock. The President entered upon tho arm of Mayor Stevens, Socrotary Traoy with Mr. Cook, Mr. E. J. nalford, Mr. D. N. Grosvenor, Marshall Randall and Captain Moredlth following.

In tho afternoon the Prosidont mot his brlgado In tho opora-houso, and it was to him evidently tho most Interesting of tho proceedings. Ho walkod upon the stago alone, and was groetod with a storm of cheers.

Prosidont Harrison' was notified by General Dustin, as he appoared on tho stage, of his election as president of the brigade, and was requested to preside. Goneral Harrison's speech was filled with pathetic and amusing anecdotes aud was in part as follows: "I think I may claim tortheso men of Illinois and the men of Indiana and of Ohio. If some of them are hero to meet with us today—that when they enlisted there was no other motive than pure, downright patriotism and thore was no misunderstanding of tho serious import of tho work in which they entered. [Applause. Thoso early days In which we were being transformed from civilians into soldiers were full of trial and hardship. But those days were passed soon, and they passed tho sooner when tho men went Into active duties. Camp duties were always Irksome and troublesome, but when they were changed for tho active duties of the march and field there was less need of restraint. "Then the serious tine, came when sickness devastated us and disease swept Its dread swath, and that dreadful process of making soldiers was passed through. Then there camo out of all this after the sifting out of those who were weak and Inoapablo, of thoso who could not stand this decimating process, that body of tough, strong men ready for tho march and fight that made up the great armies which under Grant and Shorpian and Sheridan carried tho flog to triumph. The survivors of some of them, are here to-day, and whatever else has come to us In life, whether of honor or disappointment, I do not tlilnk thero Is any of us— not me I am sure—who would to-day exchange the satisfaction, the heart comfort wo have, in having been a part of tho great army that subdued the rebellion, that saved the country, the constitution and the tlag. [Applause.] "And In those long, tiresome marches. In those hours of smoke and battle aud darkness, what was there that was beautlful except .the starry banner .thatfloats over us? [Applause.] Our country has grown and developed and Increased In riches until It Is to day marvelous among the nations of the earth, sweeping* from sea to sea, embracing almost every climate, touching tho tropics and the aret le, covering every form of product of the soil, developing in skill in the mochanlcal arts, developing, I trust and believe, not only in material things which arc groat but not the grootest, but developing. also, In those qualities of mind a?d heart, In morality, in the love of order, In sobriety, in respect for the law, In a Godfearing disposition among the people, In love for our country, In all theso high and spiritual things, I believe the soldlors In their places have made a large contribution to all these things. "I do not anticipate that we shall havo another rebellion in reny quarter or, from any cause. One attempt has thoroughly discouraged others. [Laughter and applause.) Tho futility of it wus thoroughly established, as well as the fact that the overwhelming mass of our peoplo will In any danger—I do not oare. what Its origin, whether It be from rebellion or the uplifting of the flag of anarchy—rise In their might with a weight of sentiment that, like one of tho great Alpine avalanehos or the glaciers, will sweep away any thing which Is lifted against tho orderly well-being of this country of ours. (Groat applause.] Thore stand In our places young men,' Just such as you were when tho last war broke out filled Just as you were with devotion to the country, and ready to step Into the ranks when any enemy, foreign or domestic, assulls tho honor of the flag. [Applause.] "I want to say to you In conclusion that It refreshes me to bo with you. Men In public places aro sometimes set ubout by those who have their own purposes, ends, desires and demands, some of them reasonable, but not all of theui: and I feel great comrort In being here In the comradeship and society of these old friends [applause] who 1 am sure love me not because they havo any thing to expect from ipe, but Just for good 'auld lang syne.' Let me thank you for having done me tho honor of again making mo president of this association. I hope to bo spared and that you may be spared to meet together more than once again." [Applause.]

Whon tho speech-making was over all gave throo cheers for Harrison as President of tho United States and three cheers for him as prosidont of the brigade.

Tho Phi Delta Theta banquot in OddFollows' Hall noxt made demands on tho President and was the most elaborate spread of tho day. Ono hundred sat down to elegantly-adorned tables. At tho Prosidont's table were General Grosvenor, General Morgan, Rov. Dr. llood, ToaBtmaster Silllman, Goneral Miles and Dr. Ayers. Tho address of wolcomo was dolivered by Representative G. W. Princo, and tho Prosidont replied in a short speoch.

Tho brigado banquot at tho First Christian Church, which followed Immediately aftor, was given by tho citizens and prepared by tho ladies of the church. It was an elaborate affair and was enjoyed by !t50 of tho brigado. At its conclusion tho Presidential party left to take tho train for Burlington.

Df.moi'oi.is, Ala., Oct 9.— Itubo Bur-1 rows, tbo train-robber outlaw and murderer, was shot and killed at. 4 o'clock Wodnosday morning. Ho died with a pistol in each hand, meeting his doom in a reckless and daring attempt to rogaln his liberty. Whon ho fell two men had already gono down before his novor-falling aim. Tho incidents attending his mad dash for liberty and his death aro thrilling in tho extromo.

Burrows was captured late Tuesday afternoon in a negro cabin eight milos south of Linden In this (Marengo) county. Ills captors were J. C. Cartor, a country merchant John McDullio, a farmer, and two nogroos Cartor and McDufflo had employe? to assist them. The four men curried fhelr captive to Lindon and placed him in tho sheriff's officeforsafo-kooplng. Thoy handcuffed him and tied his foot togothor with a rope and then McDufllo and ono of tho negroes, John Marshall, remained to guard him during tho night Cartor took chargo of tho money found on Burrows, 8178, and securing a room noar the joll went to sleep. Whon captured Burrows carried a sachel which ho said contained some food and clothing. This was thrown in a corner of tho room where ho was confined without being examined.

Burrows slept till 4 o'clock Wodnesday, morning while tho guards watched, pistols iu their hands. Whon Burrows awoke ho asked for tho sachnl that ho might get something to oat out of it. This.was handed him by McDullie, and with manacled hands Burrows took out some crackcrs and handed thom to his guards. nThey put down their pistols and took thom. Again tho manacled hands wont down Into the sachol, and when thoy reappeared oach hold a revolver. With a pistol pointed at his captors, Burrows ordered Marshall to untie his foot and unlock the handcuffB. The negro obeyed. He then ordered Marshall to put tho bracelots on McDufflo's wrists, after which ho unbarred the door and ordered the negro to conduct him to Carter's room, first locking the door bohind him and leaving McDullie a prisoner. The frightened negro conducted the outlaw to Carter's room, and under Burrows' orders knockcd on tho door and told him that McDufllo wanted him at tho jail. Cartor, recognizing the negro's voice, opened tho door, when Burrows thrust a pistol in his face and demanded his money.

Carter sprang to the bed, where his pistol was lying, and, grasping It, turned quickly and fired almost at the samo instant that Burrows firod. Carter was shot through tho breast above the heart, but his bullet passed entlroly through the body of Burrows. Tho outlaw staggered hack from tho door to tho street, and a second shot from his pistol crushed through the shoulder of John Marshall. Badly wounded as ho waB, Carter rushed out into the street and fired four more Bhots at Burrows. Tho bandit emptied one of his "pistols and reached down to his pookot for tho second one, but as ho did so sank with a groan. Cartor fell at tho same time. His wound is a dangerous ono. Tho body of Burrows was brought hero in tho aftornoon and an inquest will bo held. [Altogether Burrrows bus robbed nine trulns In three States, has killed several and wounded muny men with lils deadly Winchester, and has whipped 100 armed men In open light, "lied Rube," as he was called In the terrorized region be lived In, was physically a splendid specimen of manhood.

His flrst known crlmo was un attempt In conneotlon with his brother James and two other men, to .rob an old colored woman, who opened Are upon them and drove them off. Then the quartette attacked a train that was taking wuter at a small Btatlon and robbed tho passengers of t'-W. The next exploit of the party was tho robbing of a Tcxus Paclllc express cor, following which two of the gang, Bromley and Thornton, were arrested and sent to the Texas penitentiary. Since that time Rube Burrows has "held-up" no less thun seven rallwuy trains, and last year captured 190,000 from an Illinois Central train In Missouri. His brother Jim died In the Arkansas penitentiary. In July lust year Rube. Burrows killed Postmaster Gray, of Jewell, Ark.
