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.
