They took their regular turn in the stream that flowed through both entrances and went to their seats without creating the least confusion Between 1 and half rmst S o'clock the ticket takers hud all they could do to eaten the bits of pasteboards as fast as they were offered And during that time cable trains loaded to the limit dashed up ovcry two ininutos , and the street in both directions for a distance of nt least two blocks was tlllod with vehicles waiting to reach tbo entrance platform and deposit their occupjnts With a string of carrlagos constantly pass ing along between the cable track and Coli seum doors , und thousands of people flock ing through , it is somewhat remarkable that not un accldontof , any sort occurred Men and women npparoutly ulimbod ever and crawled under the

circle , whllo wall flowers abundantly decorated tbo sides and filled all nvailablo space At tbo close of the programme tbo dis persing of tbo crowd afforded another exhil arating spone , nnd it was fully a half an hour before the last of these in the audito rium succeeded in leaving the building For this period a perfect stream of people were pouring trom ull its numerous exits , and tbo hurrying to and fro without , In the search for private carriages , coupon , aud the cable cars , resembled the hroaklng up ot some gl- gautio political mooting Hundreds of people ple took commanding

of snood It is somewhat , romarknblo that , with a atroot thronged with human beings nnd lined with almost quadruple lines ot carriages , through which the cars were forced to innko their way , not n
