The first reception in the state of Missouri was to take place at St Joseph, As that city was reached at about 6:30 the President and his party had only time to hastily arise and take a cup of coffee before entering the city. At the union tan immense crowd was assembled and the ident was evidently pleased at the generous reception tendered him at such an early hour. in the assemblage was Custer Post of the G.A.R, which, drawn up in line, made a way for the President and his PE, acted as their escort until the neigh- hotel was reached where the public reception was take place. As the President and Secretary Tracy appeared on the balcony in the front of the hotel, under the escort of Col. A. C. Dawes, general passenger at of the Hannibal and St. chon railroad, « hearty cheer burst from the crow: “Citizens of St. Joseph,” said Col. Dawes, “4¢ is not necessary for me to make a speech of welcome to the President of the United States. His time with us being limited, Inow have the pleasure of introducing to you Benjamin Har- rison, President of the United States, (Great applause. } 4 The President then e briefly upon the Sab of 8t, Joe and west and thanked © throng for its reception. At the con- clusion of the President's remarks the party retired to the rotunda of the depot, where the President shook hands with the crowd as they filed through. Postmaster Charles F. Ernest, on behalf of Custer Post No. 7, G,a.R,, presented the President with a hand- some bouquet, which was gracefully acknowl- edged. Just before the train pulled out little Adele Hayes, the four-year-old niece of Col. A. C. Dawes, presented the President with a beautiful bouquet and was rewarded with a kiss from the nation’s chief executive. At exactly 7:30 the train pulled out of St, Joseph amid the cheering of the crowd. The run to Atchison was made without incident be- yond the lusty cheering of the crowds at the depots asthe train went by en route to this city. ‘Tho President entertained at breakfast Col. and Mrs. Dawes, the latter having joined the rty at Bt Joseph.
