Dobbs.—Say Bardell, there is so much said about Cobweb hall. What is the nature of the institution?
Bardell.—It is a saloon where the liquors are pure no wholesale poison. The proprietor supports the printer with a fresh advertisement every day supports legitimate home industry, instead of paying his money to the wholesale liquor dealers, who poison the public with doctored liquors. This is the nature of the institution and the proprietor.

IT IS PRESIDENT HARRISON.
'4 [CONTINUED FROM FIRST PAGE.] number of government officers and quite a throng of ladies were presented to him by General McCammon. The president was in excellent spirits and pleasantly greeted all who were introduced, chatting for a few minutes with those with whom he was acquainted. Among others presented to him at the reception were the Corean minister, Representatives Cox and Ketcham, Senator Stanford and a number of army officers. While President Harrison was holding informal levee, Vice President and Mrs. Morton and their daughters arrived, accompanied by Mr. Myron M. Parker and Mr. Henry A. Willard, and were con ducted to the appartments reserved for them. The ladies in the presidential party were Mrs. Harrison, Mrs. Kussel B. Harrison and Mrs. McKee. With Vice President Morton were Mrs. Morton and his sister-in-law, Mrs.'Hobson,
About half past ten President Harrison was joined by the ladies of his family, and the reception commenced, forming a line three and four abreast in the front and r, ar of the party. A procession was made up for a tour of the ball-room. At the special request of President Harrison that no police should surround him, the pleasurable task of protecting him from the crushing crowd was devolved upon tfae committeemen. From the stairway leading to the floor, the ball-room presented the spectacle of a vast sea of faces apparently occupying every inch of space. Presi dent Harrison expressed his doubts of the possibility of opening a passage way, but said he was willing to make the attempt. After much exertion an opening was effected in the crowd, and the procession began its tour around the hall, Colonel Cody (Buffalo Bill) and Captain Fred Brackett in advance (their herculean shoulders doing good service in making a pathway), and followed by about a dozen committeemen, preceding the distinguished guests. President Harrison walked with General McCammon, Mrs, Harrison with Colonel Britton, and the other ladies with their husbands. Vice President Morton and party followed in the wake of the president, but separated by a considerable space. Admiral Jouett escorted the vice president President Harrison's appearance was the signal for an outburst of applause and clapping of hands, which was kept up all along the line of march. Slowly and laboriously a narrow lane was made through the dense throng, and President Harrison, stopping at frequent intervals to allow those ahead of him to force their way, marched entirely around the immense court and partly back again to the upper rooms. Here the vice president caught up with the first part of the procession, and a few minutes later the whole party came out again and were es corted by one of the stairways to the first balcony and thence to their rooms. The president took the pressure of the crowd smilingly, and bowed his acknowl edgements in return to the salutations of the ladies.
Before retiring to their rooms, the president and vice president, at the re quest of General McCammon, came to the railing of the balcony overlook ing the ball-room, and for several minutes watched the gay throng moviDg below. Another brief reception was then held, and at 11:50 o'clock the presidential and vice presidential parties, es corted by the reception committee, left the building. Cheers greeted them incessantly as they descended the stairs and walked out of the ball-room.
The arrangements for this grand finale of the inauguration celebration have been admirable. The attendance (estimated at 10,000), has exceeded that of any previous inaugural ball, but with a keen foresight into the possible emer gencies that might arise and with absolute thoroughness of methods every thing seems to be done necessary for the comfort of those attending. The credit for the success of the event to-night and for the completeness with which all de tails of the arrangement of the ceremonies of the day were made, is due pri marily to Colonel A. T. Britton, who, as chairman of the executive committee, has worked day and night since the election to achieve the result attained. He bad efficient assistance from the members of the various committees.
Large numbers of people left the building immediately after the departure of President Harrison, and by midnight the floor was sufficiently cleared for dancing. At that hour the picture presented from an upper gallery was indeed one of imposing grandeur aud surpassing liveliness, the brilliant toilets of the dancers, the thousands of silken banners, flags and streamers, the stately garlands, wreated columns, the rich shade of the heavy damask, satin and velvet hangings, the odor of the flowers, the music, the flood of radiance from thousands of colored lights, the great canopies of color overhead, all united |to charm the senses and fill the mind with wondering admiralion.
FLAMBEAU CLU1U.

Display of Fireworks in the Prize Contest.
WASHINGTON March •!.—One of the most picturesque features of the outdoor ceremonies was the prize contest the flambeau clubs. The soaking rain which had ceaselessly fallen during the day abated not a whit as night came on. The general pyrotechnic display whioh had bsen arranged to take place in the Monument grounds in the early evening was necessarily postponed, but the contesting flambeau clubs, each determined to win a prize, braved the storm as did several thousands of spectators and declared their readiness to proceed. All were on the grounds at :r0 o'clock. The Atchison (Kas.) club was first to test its skill. At the word command, great tongues of flame leaped from every torch, lighting the surrounding buildings like a conflagration. And then came a. bewildering shower of rockets, pink, red, yellow and white. Up and down the street they marched in the center of an acre of tire. Loud reports like the explosion of shells followed each other in quick succession and then the sky above the marching column seemed filled with myriads of meteors, tinted in every conceivable hue. Next came the
THifi TERRE HAUTE EXPRESS, TUESDAY MORNING, MARCH 5,1889.
Cyclone club of Lawrence, Facing the judge's stand, at a given signal a perfect cyclone of fire burst forth. Midst the rattle of crackers, the firing of Roman candles, the hiwring rush of the rocket and the tremendous concussion of a hundred bombs, the club started at a quick pace toward Tenth street. The atmosphere, heavy with the clouds of smoke left by its predecessors which was beaten down to the earth by the misty rain, turned red and blue and yellow. It fairly gleamed with opalescent color. A dozen great Catherine wheels spun in fiery circles, rockets kissed in anger, stars of a hundred hues laced the storm blackened sky. Red fire blazed in volcanic eruption. The title of the club, "Cyclone," in glittering letters stood forth and finally the masterpiece was wrought. A score of rockets flew heavenward, in parallel lines, and simultaneously a glorious constellation of colored stars, assisting, a gigantic American flag flowed in lines of fire upon the night. The flambeau club, of Sedalia, Mo., was the last organization to take part in the competition. Evoluting frequently in front of the judges' stand, the spectators assumed that it would rely more upon the perfection of its drill than upon the brilliancy of its display of fireworks, to secure a favorable judgment. But in a few moments the heavens, bereft of their natural illumination, fairly blazed with the myriads of stars which the art of man had discovered. Blue, green, yellow and red were they, in hue and the club being well drilled in its action, and every operator seeking a common center, the effect was gorgeous in the extreme. Then the starry serpents wending their way through the heavy atmosphere, and dying amid a burst of multi-colored fires, excited the admiration of the beholders. The judges retired immediately after the clotfe of the contest, and in a short time announced their decision, awarding the first prize to the Cyclone club and the second to the Sedalia club, of Sedalia, Mo.
Mr. Grover Cleveland.
