The President Receives a Tremendous Ovation At San Francisco.

THE OBJECTIVE POINT

Ot the Presidential Party's Trip Was Reached Amid the Acclaim ot Gathered Thousands,

Gateway City of the Pacific Gives the Nation's Chief a Characteristic lieccption.

San Francisco, May 15.—President McKinley niailc his official entry into this city, the objective point of his tour, late yesterday rfteruoon. After bi iiig t'uriu nly welcomed by Mayor J. i. Pkoian, ne was driven through the principal streets, attended by a. military ami naval escort.. Last night he attended a public reception in the large nave of the Market street ferry depot. Entering at one door of tlie nave, tin people passed down the hall to tlie southern end, where President AIcKinley stood, surrounded by ineinof his cabinet and other prominent visitors. The president did not engage in handshaking, but bowed as Uie people passed, each one saluting him with a small Hag.

Late in the afternoon tiie president left the .Scott residence, where Mrs. McKinley is convalescing, for Valencia street station. Here he met the train bringing the members of the cabinet and remainder of his party, who had fulfilled the program between San Jose and this city. President McKinley wtis also met here by Mayor Chelan mid formally received. The president, the members of his cabinet, Mayor Phelan and tne reception committee. were then taken by special train to the Third and Towuseml streets depot, where the military and uaval escort was waiting. Long before the hour set for the president's arrival. Third street from King to Harrison was a solid mass of humanity.

Within a very few minutes of the set time the distant sound of a whistle signalled to the waiting crowds in the southern part of the city that the president was approaching. Similar signals repeated at intervals told of the progress of the train along the stretch of track between the :20th street station and the Third street, depot, anil linally the clanging of the engine bell announced its presence in the railroad yards and near the end of its journey.

Then there was a terrible din. Tlie whistles of the factories and machine shops of the neighborhood were turned loose, bells of the yard engines were furiously rung, thousands of voices joined in the noisy welcome to the city's guests, and a general movement among the thickly packed humanity districts added to the incident. A. few minutes after the train arrived, the procession was formed and the march up Third street was begun. From the moment the president emerged from the depot the cheering was hearty, but as the long parade got under way, its force seemed to be redoubled. Far up the line in advance of the vanguard, the cry was caught up. Block after block, in succession, was soon faced with a surging mass who broke into a vociferous welcome. Thousands of factory -whistles were blowing in all parts of the city. The blasts of horns, the rattle of horses' hoofs on the cobblestones, the measured tread of thousands of feet, and the triumphal strains of bands united with the voices of the people in bidding the president welcome. The line of march was handsomely decorated with flags, bunting and evergreens. At Vanness avenue President McKinley reviewed the procession, after •which he repaired to the Scott residence for dinner. Today's program is marked by equally enthusiastic demonstrations.

Some Matters of General Interest Throughout Hoosierilom. Indianapolis, May 15.—Ex-ltepresen-tntive Armanas F. Knotts of Ham mond is in the city today. He says that the new metropolitan police board of Hammond is working "like a welloiled machine," and that it Is giving the saloon keepers to understand they must close at 12 o'clock sharp—one hour after the regular closing time. This ur Mr. Kotts calls the "hour of grace." lie says that Lake county is prospering like a green bay tree, and that about Thursday of this week an item of news will happen up there that will stir the whole state. He declines to forecast the item.

Webb Chandlee of Richmond, one of the most popular citizens of that Quaker city, who is here today, says that there is a splendid prospect that Indianapolis will soon be connected with Cincinnati by interurban railway routes via Dayton. The connecting links, he says, will be new lines from Eaton, ()., to Richmond and from Richmond to (Jreentield, which are now projected. "Lnterurban roads." siiid Mr. Chandlee. "are mighty good tilings for the big towns and mighty poor institutions for the small towns, because they take the buyers in the small towns to the larger towns to get their goods."

R. C. Ilillis, superintendent of the Cass county public schools, is here today looking after his fences. He is the most active hustler among the candidates for the Republican nomination for superintendent of public instruction. He is malting a great many friends by visiting teachers' gatherings over the stale. F. A. Cotton, formerly deputy superintendent of public instruction, has accepted a position as traveling deputy in the state statistician's otlice. He has been assigned to gather school statistics and incidentally lie will gather all of the support possible for his boom.

Frank B. Posey of Evansville, who was in the city last night, says that he lias not made up his mind whether or not lie will lie a candidate for the Republican nomination for secretary of state. The acknowledgment that he is entertaining the proposition at all is considered significant., liis friends say lie could have had the nomination "hands down" in had he gone Jitter it. Daniel Storms of Lafayette is sending out letters announcing his candidacy for this nomination.

The iuart.erly pension payment is about at an end and the customary two and a half million dollars is being distributed among the Indiana pensioners. Never before, Pension Agent Leiglity says, have as many mistakes been made in executing pension vouchers. The number of mistakes, he says, will exceed 3,000, and the persons chiefly responsible are those that ought to know best how to avoid mistakes—the magistrates that execute the vouchers.

The report of State Geologist Blatchley will be off of the press in a few days. It will deal especially with the Portland cement industry in Indiana, and will present some interesting figures. The geologist will show the immense prolits of the industry by citing that Portland cement, under the best workable conditions, can be made in Indiana for 0U cents a barrel, and that it sold at the factories last year for $1.00 to $1.80 a barrel.

Lieutenant Governor Gilbert came to the city last night and, following his recent custom, went to the Columbia club. Nearly all of the prominent Republican politicians have forsaken the Denison house and now make their headquarters at the Columbia club when in the city.

The new management of the Grand hotel, which recently discharged all of the colored bellboys and appointed iVhite boys in their places, has changed all of the barbers connected with the establishment, substituting white for colored men.

Quay Gets a Reception.

Philadelphia, May 15.—Republicans from every section of the Keystone state paid homage last night to United States Senator M. S. Quay in honor of his re-election to the upper house of congress. It was one of the greatest outpourings of Republicans to do honor to one man ever witnessed In this state. The occasion took the form of a banquet followed by a reception, and was under the auspices of the Pennsylvania State League of Republican clubs.

Dr. McKinley.

Berkeley, CaL, May 15.—The degree of doctor of laws has been conferred upon President McKinley by the University of California. Only twice before since the founding of the university in 18GS, has this degree been bestowed by the institution.

Bell* with two iTtnlni Dres*e*.

Pointing out several reasons why the girls of the twentieth oentury are inferior to those of the eighteenth, Miss Wharton said to the New Cenury club of Philadelphia: "Long after the colonial days it was related with pride cf Miss Anne Payne, Mrs. Madison's sister, that she was the belle of Washington for an entire season with two evening dresses—one of white muslin and ont of white silk."

8 Dress Goods and

SPRING CAMPAIGN.!

Never before has The Big Store been so well prepared for a season's business. More thought and time has been given to selection, the varieties displayed are greater, and because of larger purchases prices are lower and values offered are better. This store is gaining every day in popular favor, and more people are learning they pay less and have more to select from here than anywhere else, and the larger our business grows the lower our prices are, so iffyou help us to grow you help yourself to buy for less. On this basis we ask your patronage.

While fewer fancies are being used the line of plain cloths have grown apace and colors have multiplied until there's no danger of somberness. We've every wanted cloth and almost every wanted shade. We say almost every wanted shade, because we're truthful about our statements and it's seldom we or anyone else can show every shade. We buy goods to sell, and often you want them faster than we can get them from the manufacturer or importer. That's the reason we have to say "almost every shade" sometimes. But even with our truthfulness we'll show you more than most stores It will pay you to see our assortment of dress goods Yes, and silks also. It's wonderful the way black taffetas are gelling.. The only question is to get them fast enough. We are doing our best to keep a selling line of the guaranteed taffetas, especially the dollar a yard kind.

Wash Goods

If every lady in the county and all the counties adjoining would come just once to see our line of Wash Stuffs it would not be necessary for us to say another word about them this season. Suppose you try the experiment. We are willing they should talk for themselves* They are legion and past our powers of description. Everything that an ordinary dry goods store has in Wash Goods, and in addition as many novelties and high class stuffs as any city store. We have shown the line this spring in many towns larger than this and the mail orders we receive every day is proof that they are appreciated away from home. Do you know the goodness of the line?

We do the Drapery business completely and cheaply. No fancy prices here just because of the novelty of the line. You pay no more for goods that are exclusive than you pay for ordinary styles elsewhere. We invite you to test this statement.

\y Spring Underwear, Spring Hosiery, Spring Wraps, Spring Millinery* New Linens, Corsets, Wrappers, Embroideries, Laces, Kid Gloves, Ribbons, and all articles'usually found in a first class Dry Goods store.
