PRESIDEJiTIAL WEEK AT THE EXPOSITION Nature wore her sweetest smile o welcome. 'Omaha put on her most gra cious airs. The event was ushered in by the dual parade of Ak-Sar-Ben and the electric illuminations of the stellar con stitutions on Tuesday evening. By 4 p. m. the people filed ioto the seats which had been erected -on Farnam street. By eight o'clock there was not space enough in the streets for a canary bird's feet. The presidential party ar rived at 9 p. m. and when President McKinley took his seat a shout went up from thousands of throats that called into action the most sluggish pulse. The electric illumination of Farnam street was nearly, if not quite as fine, as wnat I saw in Paris when the Czar was re ceived in June of 97. The train bearing the diplomatic party, under the conduct of S nator Thurston, was three hours late owing to a wreck on the B. & O. However, the carriages of the party ar rived just in time to fall into line, with the president's party under conduct of Assistant Secretary Meikeljohn. At 9 a. m. Wednesday the entire dele gation met at the Omaha club rooms, where President McKinley was enter tained and proceeded in order of rank to the exposition in carriages, The route within the exposition grounds, to which carriages on no other occasion have been admitted, was guarded on either side the entire line, by files of soldiers. Alighting at the steps of the platform President McKinley and his party were seated. Such an ovation was extended by 90,000 people as well might inepire the soul of any chieftain. The president's speech was full of epigram matic sentences which will pass into American classics. The band played national airs. At the close the ladies of the entire party were driven to the Omaha club rooms and the president and gentlemen of the diplomatic dele gation, with their hosts dined at the Ex position cafe. The club rooms were fitted up in roj al fashion. The tables were embowered in roses and garlanded with the flags of all nations. The wives of the Chinese and Korean ministers were guests of honor. The tiara of diamonds and pearls of the Chinese madame would purchase a king dom. The toilet of the Omaha ladies was exceptional. The universal vtrdict of the Washington ladies was to the effect that no social function in Wash ington had been celebrated with more artistic taste. At 3 p. m. the ladies re tired to their carriages and joined the president's party at the exposition and were driven again between lines of "our boys in blue" to the platform of the In dian encampment, and the "Battle of the Tribes" took .place a great moving panorama of painted chiefs, squaws, papooses, horses and ponies, in all thq, gorgeous hues of the morning of our civilization. The effect was a perfect color symphony. At tte close, the grand review, when President McKinley de scended from the platform, walked down the line and greeted the chiefs of the various tribes, again in carriages the entire party wsre driven to the banquet ing hall, where President McKinley sat amid flags and floating white dove?. At the center of the table, the diplomatic corps next in rank. After dinner speeches were made by General Miles, General Manderson and Senator Thurs ton. Thence in carriages to the splendid pyrotechnic display, where the lagoon was a sea of foam and the heavens etudded with shooting gems of aerial brilliancy. Thursday was army and navy day at the exposition. Never has the western world witnessed tush a scene. General Miles was the central figure, but the military blue and gold of the entire party was as one vast sparkling diadem. Governor Holcomb and Senator Allen spoke in behalf of the 6tate. General Miles brought the entire audience to their feet in one deafening peal o? ap plause, which was echoed again and again until the ar vibrated and was tremulous with cheers. Senor Quesada, the Cuban minister, moved the great audience as one heart by his pathetic expressions of gratitude to the American people and the army and navy. The exercises, concluded, the guests lunched in Market hall, which had been decorated with army and navy colors. The gay uniforms, the brilliant cos tumes, the after dinner speeches, all sparkled. The party passed the re mainder of the day in the Midway, which Senator Manderson facetiously termed the "dimway." Most entertain ing were the comments of the Chinese minister and his beautiful wife upon the .illusions of the Midway. The Chinese madame was gorgeously attired in na tive costume and daintily moved on her tiny feet supported by her maid. Friday waB civil government day. At an early hour the vast auditorium was filled Seats were reserved for the "boys in blue," who had guarded well the routes throughout the successive fetes. At 11 a. m. the government rep resentatives and thier ladies filed to the platform. General Shafter was the head of the day. The vast audience burst into a spasm of cheers as he rose to his feet. t Assistant Secretary of War Meikeljohn tbe& spoke. The Chinese minister surprised everbody by the ele gance of his diction and bis entire free dom from acy accent. He spoKe the purest English, choosing for his theme international relations. Senor Quesada again electrified the audience by his magnetic pathos of gratitude for Cuban liberty under the stars and stripes. The Korean minister was introduced and spoke briefly, not being able to clothe his thoughts in English. Senator Thurston was the last speaker and closed the presidential fete with a peroration 'worthy the celebrated event. Then the banquet at the cafe and the closing of the high functions of the great exposition climax. At the table sat General Shafter, General Miles and a score of military officers of high rank. Governor Holcomb, Senator Allen, Sen ator Thurston, with th3 full list of Washington guests with their hosts and hostesses. The remainder of the day was given to the examination of the various build ings, where the resources of the west were the theme of the distinguished guests. Notable on this afternoon was the interview of Senator Thurpton, at tended by his party, with the chief. "American Horse," on "diplomatic re lations with the Great Father," as they style President McKinley. In the cabin n
