The party then went | to the House of Representatives. When all were about to start for a drive later the Governor happened to run his hand | into the pocket of the overcoat into | which he had been assisted, and in much surprise he called out: “Hello, Dave—this is not my coat. | one has a blg gun in the pocket.” | Then the President, standing close at hand, chuckled softly, and, turning to the Governor with his expansive smile, said quietly: “On, it's all right, Governor. belongs to me.” This That coat sub- | nat an especially difficult one, s the sol- diers had broken a trail through to the | Yellowstone From Yanceys the President probably will visit Lower Soldiers have broken a trail thither.
