She is particularly n friend of the ( tommns , nnd when lately lit Milwaukee they received her with roial honors , even going so far as to un- hltcli the horses from her rnrrlngo nnd draw it by hand from the depot to the hotel. They remembered Mis * itarton'a kindness to the Prussian eoldjnrs In the war with Franco.

TRAINS. The delegates and comrades and friends wcro expected about 11 o'clock yesterday morning1. The first install ment , however , did not arrive until 3 o'clock in the afternoon. They were de layed four hours on the Grain ! Trunk , and left Chicago that length of lime be hind the schedule hour. At the hour mentioned the section specilicd , over the Chicago , Milwaukee & St. Paul railroad , rolled into the transfer depot. It was drawn by Engine 22:3. : Edward Collon was the engineer and C. E. Mitchell the conductor. It comprised the following Pullman Bloopers : Metropolis , Cataract , Conewago. Brocton , Clcartield , llumbcr , Achates , bwatara , Owanica. besides a dining and baggage car. This train , although arriving ilrst , left the east as the second section. A mixing up took place at Surma , in which the order of the trains was destroyed. It also caused the separation of the state delega tions to that degree that , while the people from each state started out in company , their cars became hopolcfchly mixed up in flio several trains. With this exception , the journey of tlio section mentioned , was devoid of excit ing episode. The parties on noard , however - over , enjoyed themselves to their hearts' content. Nearly all of them started out as strangers , but when they arrived at the Din lit ) they were like a largo family at a Thanksgiving reunion. There was an excellent representation of ladies. Among those wore misses in their teens and matrons in the fifties. Some were plain , others pretty , while the appearance ot the whole party was tliat of intelligence and relinomt-nt which attracted general admiration. Ono of the most conspicuous figures was that of a woman , possibly fifty years of ago. She was dressed in n dark dress , with massive rotundity of form , and masculine fo'itures , the head of which was surmounted with a soft black felt hat which bora the traditional G A. R. letters in the usual scroll of gold. She wore a badge of tlio same order upon her breast , and luovud about with won derful composure , as If nho hud been "Moll IV.chor" or the wife and mother of a husband and family who hud laid down their lives for the Hag. Tins train bore a number of the Massachusetts and Now Hampshire delegates and comrades , but the Salem post of the G. A. R. . with forty memb-'s , .The New Hampshire people occupied two cars , tha other iivo being occupied by travelers from the Granite Stato. Prominent among the latter , worn Governor Frederick Robio , the present in cumbent of the Kubernutorml ouico- Gonond Bealo , of Norway , chief of tlio laticr's stafl ; Dr. Hauilcii , nephew of ox- Vjco President Huudln , audColonelllay- dor. , of Bath. Besides those there wore two hundred other ueoplo , each of whom , Indies nnd gentlemen , seemed to bo in thou u ! lest enjoyment of health and in antici pation "i u very pleasant trip. SECriOX SECOND. TJils 5"t 'Jf tlio trala " v arrived at . , :30 : p. m. It rolled Into the transfer behind engine 210 , also of the C. , M. A St. P. road. The throttle was held by S. A. Southern. The conductor was E. W. French. The train comprised n baggage car. a day coach , a dining car ami the Pullmanc , "Callais , " "Honoli'lu ' , " "In ternational , " "Alexandra , " "Occidental , " "Manhattan. " nnd a special sleeper from the Hudson River road , which was cm- blazoned as the headquarters of the Ad miral Foot post No. 17 G. A. R. , of Now Haven. This train should have been the first to arrive , but it was put out of its place in : ho martial advance by the mistake above referred to. Six of the cars mentioned wcro occupied by Massachusetts people of whom there wore not less than 1M ) people on board. They were , in the main of the intelligent nnd relined class and many of them displayed pretty , hand some and intellectual faces ; and , while , .here were a number of young ladles , who would easily have attracted the at- ontion of love-born swains. They seemed particularly happv because of Lho absence ot "spoons , " which arc nvariably the concomitants of such en- erprises. The more distinguished pcoplo of this state have already gone to the coast , while n few are still to pass hero. Among them wcro half a dozen post de partment commanders , the latest of which is Wm. H. Chamberlain , of Pitts- ield , who , with his sons and wife , are .raveling to the coast. The "Interna tional" contained the Rhode Island people ple , of whom there wcro fifty. The Hides of the ear was illumined with a stretch of muslin on which was painted in bold characters the name of the state. The "Manhattan" contained the Now York lelegalcs , of whom there were fifty more. The department commander had gone to the coast three days before by another route. In this car among the others wuro J.-iptiiin George Washburne , of the New York police , and Corporal Tanner , a gentleman of considerable national rep utation. SECTION TI1IU1) . This part of the train did not reach the depot until -1:110 : o'clock. It was delayed on the road near Dohancc by the bursting of a brake hose , which required half au hour to replace with another. This train was drawn by engine 800. R. A. Nichols was engineer and Robert Hamilton acted as conductor. It comprised tbo Worcester cars " " "C.astclla " " " "Shaughraun , , "Ruby , "Virginia , " "Howard Forrest , " "Jerome Marble" and "Yellowstone. " Ncarlv every ono of tbcso coaches bore a legend on either side setting fortlt the organi zation of the occupants. Ono bore the the designation ot "Dablgren post , No. 2 , G. A. R. , Boston to San Francisco. " Another contained the Mayor Howard post of the same organization from Springfield. The car bearing the delega tion of the Womon's Relief corps was designated by the following inscription : "National Headquarters W. 11. C. . from" the old Bay State 10 the Golden Gate. " Still another coach hung out the strip , "Massachusetts G. A. It. to San Fran cisco. " This train came through with out an accident and was more than usually interesting because of the pres ence of a great number of ladies. These in the main comprised the members of tbo W omen's Relief corps together with a number of other ladies. In tbo "Jerome Marble" the occupants , ladies and gentle men. wore pink silk traveling caps with black stripes , and looked like a uniform corps which attracted much attention. GOVEUNUR FKEDEK1C1C HOKIU. This gentleman was mnt by the BEE reporter. He is a man fiffy-live years of ago. Ho was dressed in a suit of blue ilamu'l , with a white summer vest and a coarse brown shirt. His faceis llorid , with a light pair of gray side whiskers and a small goatee ot the same color. It was his lirst visit to tlio west , ho said , and he was surprised to find Omaha a city of 7o,000 pcoplo. Ho know that -it was a lively progressive place , but "had not expected to liud it so far along m the progress of the times. Ho bad boon gov ernor of Maine for four years , and pre viously both before and since tlio war , had been for seventeen year a member- of the state legislature. Part of that time he had been speaker of the house. But ho was now tired of public service , even though ho had been elected the last time by a majority of 20,000. Mr. Blaiuo was in excellent noallh and was now at Mt. Desert. Tito people of Maine hod the greatest afl'ection tor him , and would no doubt jrivc him their earnest support in tliocvent , of his nomination for the presidency. In the estimation of Gov ernor Robio , Mr. Blaino's last defeat was duo mainly to the tcmpcrnnco pco plo , whoso mistakes , ho tclt , would not be committed again Ho had no doubt that Mr. Blu'mc would bo pleased to run again for the presidency , and felt that this time he would bo successful. COUl'OHAL. TANXEU. This gentleman was found on the depot platform. lie wore no coat nor vest and was drssed m dark-blue pants , ilannol shirt of tlio same material and a black silk cap. Ho used a cane and smoked a fragrant cigar. Ho lost both his logs in the second Lattlo of Bull's Run. and now wears artilical limbs. Ho has been deputy under Mr. Arthur when the lat ter was collector of the nort of Now York. Uuntil recently ho illicit the ap pointive ofllco of collector of taxes of Brooklyn , but the change of administra tion to the democracy bus put a member of the latter pcsuasion in his placo. Ho is now a candidate for the national com mander of the G. A. R , , and it is ex pected that he will poll a strong vote. Corporal Tanner said that President Cleveland bad a number of severe critics in New York , oven among the members of his own party. Tito old soldier clement was entirely against him , because ot the reckless manner in which ho had exercised his veto power in the pension cases. Of course , some of these deserved to have been vetoed , but there were others , just ones , tbo proofs of which lay with people who wcro deader or on tlio other side of the world , and which could not bo received in any other manner than by a special act of con gress. This did not como with very good grace from an able-bodied man who had sent a substitute to the war. If the soldiers had rot done as they did , by this time , ho thought , there would bo no United States government , neither would there bo a President Cleveland. CAPTAIN GEOKtti : AVASII11UHNK. "I am a captain of the Now York po lice , I have been a member of that body for twenty-eight j-cara. I think it justi fies the name of the "llncst police in the world , because it is large , and it is much more easy to discipline n largo body of men than it is u small handful. Besides , the members have every inducement to become reliable. They have life posi tions , unless they forfeit them by bad conduct. If they are sick they are as sisted. If they got injured in the din- charge of their duties , their medical and surgical expenses are defrayed by the city. When they become too old to act they are pensioned on half pay. After two year s service , the policeman's wilary Is § 1,200 a year. Tl ere are now , 200 men on the force and they will bo in"- * creased to 8,700 before long , There Is one superintendent with u salary of $ U,000 , lour inspectors with $3,400 each , four sergeants at $1COO each , and twenty- two captains at $ ' 3,500 per year. The ex pense of tno force o very year is $ .3,500,000 , UAUGKS. Everybody yesterday , whether man , woman or child , on the train wore a badge , Some wore two , , others three , and some looked like tha war of all the Russians rath breast bedecoratcd with lucilaJs andjdbboijs. The Jotter wcro of all colors audtho former 01 all sjmpcg. These were of copper , bTass , ff on u silver and gold. They were fashioned into squares , circles , " triuugloa , stars , suns , and other designs too numerous to mention , Borne were plum , others moro elaborate , and displayed not Ijcsa tlt } > lib- crnllty of the owner or donor than they ind the skill of the designer and gold smith. The members of the different de partments wore distinguished by sym bols which they wore over their badges , Rhode Islanders wore Ji little clam ; Con necticut , a realistic wooden nutmeg ; Bos- tonlans , a copper bean pod ; Maine , o small cone of pine , ami New Hamp shire n miniature block of granite. Each wearer was as proud oMiis ornamentum as Cirsar is supposed to have been on par ado , After the trains had beep unloaded , they wcro drawn to tno west side of the dopott where they departed in the order in which they had como in. They wcro all under way before seven o'clock. The lirst was drawn by engine 710 , with Tom sent along , ono with csich train , to look after the bapgago. The Pullman con ductors went with the party , o. A. it. TAPS. The Vcrmontcrs wcro in the car "Peri cles. " It took live ticket handlers to accom modate the crowds. Some of the delegates had moro badges than coat covering. Sleeveless jackets ami legless panta loons were numerous. It was a busy Sunday for tlio U. P. of ficials at the depot. There were 031) ) persons , in round num bers , on the special. Tlio headquarters of the Connecticut pcoplo in 'Frisco is the Grand hotel. Some of the Boston party , with red looked "culchawed " In traveling caps , , deed. All tickets had to bo changed nt the transfer which caused a rush , crush and delay. Two raised tables wuro provided with ink and paper for the accommodation of tlio tourists at the transfer. Now Englandcrs do not like prohibi tion states out west. They don't under stand tlio winks like in Maine. The New Englandcrs bad 570 pieces of baggage. Pity the three poor Omaha baggagemen who went out with the train. Tlio BEE representatives wcro the only newspaper men on hand to welcome tlio visitors and introduce them to Omaha typo. The military editor of the Boston Glebe is not merely a Patch on the crazy quilt of journalism , but he is all wool and a yard wide. It looks as if Corporal Jim Tanner would get there and that the next annual trip would be to Nashville , Tenn. , where some of the. vets were before under ditl'or- cnt circumstances. Miss Clara Barton organized the na tional cemeteries and passed four years in searching for missingsoldiers. During that time , the whereabouts of eighty thousand were discovered , some dead and others living. Jolly boy Patch very ( considerately in formed the Omaha newspaper men that his party had Boston b.ikcu beans yester day morning for breakfast and wanted to know if Nebraska could give them grass hoppers on toast. Tom Mana'iian , engineer of No. 710 , was ordered to pull out ono of the spe cials. When ho backed over to tins trail- for he saw a car marked : "Vermont to San Francisco. ' ' This riveted his atten tion , fair Tom is from Swanton , and ho immediately commenced to explore. It was not many miuutcs-before he was "in tiio hands of his friends" a do/on or moro schoolmates , neighbors , "fellers" who "licked" him in the halcyon and fellers" ho "licked.
