About the Ball tolly Mad is n
Relitna Supreme at Two Function
Oram' I niqualcj Reception.
After the election of a President has
been officially declared the taking or
the oath of office Is the only essential
thing required by the Constitution pre
liminary to his entering upon bis dut.es.
ArouuJ this essential act all the das
sling pageantry and elaborate ceremon
ies of modern Inaugurations have been
built, not In pursuance of law, but of
fashion, and custom. However grand
and Interesting they may be, from a
legal standpoint these ceremonies are
all "lealhrr and prunella." The essen
tial thing, the oath, as prescribed by
the Constitution, Is simplicity Itself. It
is merely this:
1 do solemnly swear thst I will faith
fully execute the ottiie of President of
the United States aud will to the best
of my ability preserve, protect and de
fend the Constitution of the L'nited
States."
This Is the form used by all of our
Presidents.. Curiously enough, there is
no rule determining whether the oath
or the inaugural address shall come
first. This is left to the fa my or the
tas'.e of the individual. Some of our
Presidents have preferred to take the
oath first, others last, and some havo
tried It both ways on being afforded
an opportunity through a re-election
Those who took the oath before deliver
Ins the address were Washington. Mon
roe. Jackson tsecoud inauguration.
Pierce Lincoln (second Inauguration).
Grant. KarnVld, Benjamin Harrison
and McKinley.
Waahinaton Take the Oath.
The oath was adinluistered to Wash
ington at his first Inauguration by
Chancellor Livingston, or New York,
aud at his second by Justice William
THE TWENTY-FOUR
t
Cashing, of Massachusetts. To John
Adams the oath waa administered by
Chief Justice Oliver Ellsworth, of Con
necticut sod Chief Justices of tbe Uni
ted States Supreme Court have ofBcl
sted In s similar capacity ever since.
All our subsequent Presidents . have
been sworn In by Ave men Chief Jus
tices John Marshall of Virginia. Roger
B. Taney of Maryland. Salmon V.
Chase and Morrison R- Waite, of Ohio,
and Melville W. Fuller of Illinois. Mar

or of swearing In Jefferson, Madison.

son sn unexampled record, covering
nine presidential terms. Taney, ap
pointed by Jackson, swore In success
ively Van Buren, William Henry Har
rison. Polk. Tyler. Taylor. Pierce. Bu
chanan and Lincoln (first term). Chase,
sppointed by Lincoln, administered tbe
oath to Lincoln (second term) and to
Grant both terms. Walte. appointed
by Grsnt, administered It to Hayes,
Garfield and Cleveland (first time), and
Puller, appointed by Cleveland, admin
istered It to Benjamin Harrison, Cleve
land (the second time) snd McKinley.
The longest Inaugural address on rec
ord was that of William Henry Harrl
son. which was indeed formldsble. com
prising 8.ST8 words. The shortest In
augural address was Washington's sec
ond, consisting of only 134 words. Lin
coln's second comes next to It In point
of brevity. Polk's, Benjamin Harri
son's snd Monroe's were long, but they
fell short of William Henry Hsrrlson's
by about 4.000 words. - -
Socially the most important function
Incident to an Inauguration of late
years is tbe ball, which gives a sort of
finishing toncb to the festivities of an
exciting day. . AH of our twenty-eight
Inaugurations In the past, beginning
with Washington's first, have had this
sdjunct except seven. These were
Washington's second. Adams', both of
Jefferson's, Jackson's first,, Pierce's and
Hayes'. In each case the absence of
the ball feature has been significant of
the state of the popular mind or the
scruples of tbe administration doming-'
ting the occasion. Thus during Wash
tngton's first administration violent
criticisms were launched against him
on account of his alleged fondness for
courtly and monarchical ceremonies.
snd ii sn offset to these criticisms
Washington at his second Inauguration
and Adams when bis turn came ellm
Inated the ball feature entirely. When
Jefferson came Into the kingdom, pleig
ed as be and bis party were to Intro
duce reforms and restore simplicity of
government, he. too. felt constrained
to eliminate tbe ball, and did so, al
though be had no scruples about attend
ing the ball In honor of his successor,
Madison. Likewise Jackson, pledged
pietty much as Jefferson had been to
the restoration of simplicity, cut out
the ball from the festivities' attending
u.s Inauguration, although he Incorpor
ated a ball In the program for his sec
ond inauguration. At Pierce's Inaug
uration the weather was execrable Rnil
It appears that the ball was allowed to
lapse through the lack of energy of the
tnnuguratlou managers. President ami
Mrs. Hayes had strict Ideas of their
own regarding their social obligations
and both were avett ;u dancing, as
well as to the use of wine at state din
ners. Accordingly the committee In
charge of Hayes' inauguration cut out
the ball.

The Brat Inaugural ball, that given by
Washington, was postponed from Aprti
80 to May 7 In consequence of the ab
sence rroin New York of Mrs. Washing
ton. When it came off It proved to be
a brilliant function, attended by the
elite society of that day. Both the
Presldeut aud his wife dauced with evi
dent enjoyment.
Both balls of the Mail son regime
were gay affairs. The first was given
at Long's Hotel and the second at
Davis', now the Metropolitan. At the
latter, according to an old chronicle, all
society was represented to do honor to
the President aud his beautiful, spirited
wife, Mrs. loly Madison, who from
all accounts was as charm lug a wouiati
aud hostess In her day as Mrs. drover
Cleveland In our own.
Monroe's first luattgural ball, likewise
held at lav:s was prouounced splen
did. His second, held at Brown's Hotel,
was described as gay and joyous, hap
pening, as It did, in the midst of an
era of good feeling.
John Qulncy Adams' inaugural ball
was held at the assembly rooms, now
Kernau's Theater. It was a highly
polite gathering, belug the last of the
old style functions preceding the Jack
sonian "flood."
Jackson's ball, given on the night of
his second Inauguration, occurred at the
Central Masonic Hall, which then stood
ou the lte now occupied by the old
tSlobe printing office. - It was not par
ticularly brilliant, and aside, from the
PRESIDENTS OF THE UNITED STATES
presidential party the chief notables
present. If such they could be consid
ered, were the Board of Aldermen and
Common Council of the city of Wash
ington, with the Mayor and officers of
tbe corporation.
Van Buren's Induction Into office wss
signalieed by two bails, but tbe Presi
dent and high dignitaries attended but
one of them, that held at Carlisl e As
sembly Rooms.
Three Ball, foe tfavrle-n.'
William Henry Harrison on the night
of bis Insugurstlon went Van Buren
one bettor, three balls being given in
the course of the evening, and the
President attending each In turn. He
wss received with warmest demonstra
tions of sttachment and respect. The
price of tickets vsried, $10 being tbe
highest.
At Polk's Inauguration the balls di
minished to two one at Carusi's at sio
per ticket, and a very "swell" affair,
and the other at the National Theater
on Louisiana avenue, between Mb aud
Bth streets, at So per ticket. Polk at
tended both, but supped only with the
true-blue five-dollar democracy," as
John Qulncy Adams remarks In his
diary.
Taylor, not to be outdone by William
Henry Harrison, also had three balls
to grsce his Inauguration. One was at
the Grand saloon, a temporary sirttct
ure erected for the occasion In Judi
ciary Kquare; another was at Jackson
Hall, and the third at Carusi's. Tbe
President and Cabinet attended all of
them.
Buchanan escorted bis attractive
niece. Miss Harriet Lane, Inter Mrs.
Harriet Lane Johnson, to the big ball
given In honor of his Inauguration, and
supped there at midnight.
The ball In honor of the Induction of
Lincoln the first time was not attended
by tbe new President, but at tbe ball
following bis second Inauguration, beld
on March 6 In the model-room of the
Patent Office Building, botb President
and Mrs. Lincoln were present and
seemed to enjoy the exercises,
i ' ' Orent'e She w the Pest."' "
The grand ball given In tbe north
wing of the treasury on the night of
Grant's first Inauguration eclipsed all
affairs of Its kind up to that date.
Grant's second inaugural ball, however.
beld In a temporary building In Judi
ciary Square, was even more ' note
worthy, not bees use of Its brilliancy,
or of the fact that tickets cost f 20 each,
but on account of a mere accident of
weather. No provision had been made
for beating the building, and as tbe
thermometer that night fell to four de
grees above sero, with a howling gale
blowing, tbe dancers found themselves
In a pitiable plight. The ladles were
obliged to retain their wraps entire and
the gentlemen their hats and overcoats.
The supper, which was elaborate and
expensive, was a frigid repast. The
ornamental devices In Ice cream were
frozen doubly and the champague and
punch were deserted ror hot coffee,
which was the only hot thing ot tne
supper. The dancers were literally
frozen ont before midnight.
tiartield's Inaugural ball was held In
the unfinished National Museum Build
ing and tw a brilliant affair. The dec
..timi were the finest ever seen in
Washington.
Cleveland's first Inaugural ball, at the
Pension OrHce, then newly completed
and gorgeously decorated for the occa
sion, was a truly memorable function.
More than S.tXH) people filled the build
ing at one time, while many thousands
more outside awaited an opportunity
to enter. The new President arrived at
10 o'clock and led off In the grand
inarch with Miss Katharine Bayard,
daughter of his Secretary of State, on
his arm.
All subsequent Inaugural balls have
been held In the Pension Office, where
the decorations In each case have
eclipsed those of Its predecessors.
MAKING FIRE.
He Could Not Uo It by Knbblnz Two

"Hanged If I believe, anybody ever
made a fire by rubbing two sticks to
gether, all travelers' yarns to the con
trary notwithstanding." declared an
enthusiastic local siiortsuian the other
day. "I spent a couple of weeks with
a camping party on the upper Bed
river, west of WlnHeld. last spring."
he went on. "and one morning I got
separated from the other boys, and it
was night Ix-fore I fonud by way back
to our shack. 1 am an inveterate smok
er, and when I filled up my pipe after
wandering around for an hour or two
1 was horrified to find that my match
safe was empty. As soou as I made
that discovery my desire for a smoke
Increased alxmt 3H per cent. If I had
had iny gun along I could have started
a blaze without trouble, but unluckily I
had set out to do some fishing and had
no weaMin but my book and line.
Naturally, the first thing that occurred
to me was flint and steel, but I couldn't
find any flint, aud then I happened to
think of the old story altout making
fire with two pieces of wood. Well, I
won't tire you with details, but If ever
man gave an experiment a conscien
tious trial I did on this occasion. I
Icked up chunks of half a dozen dif
ferent kinds of wood, trimmed them
down with my penknife, aud tried them
all In varloua combinations, using one
hard aud one soft stick, exactly as the
story books nay the Indiana do. But.
although I ruhticd until the pesky
things were chafed nenrly -In two, 1
never succeeded In getting them even
warm.
"At last I remembered reading some
where about a scheme of the natives of
Java, who are said to lay a flat piece
of wood on the ground and twirl a
small roil, top-fashion, on Its surface,
by means of a cord. I soon made one
of the machines, cutting up my aus
penders for the string, and if you had
seen me squatting there seesawing tbe
thing you would have taken oath that
1 had ioHt my mind. At the end of half
an hour I was redhot and the appara
tus was dead cold. The longer I twirl
ed the cooler It got. If I bad kept on
another half-hour I believe I would
have had a stick frappe. But I had
gone far enough to convince me that
the man who wrote the story was a
double-barreled, back-action, trlple
plnted liar, and I yearned violently "for
his gore. I struck camp Just about
dusk, and the first thing I did was to
grab a coal from the fire and put It on
my pipe. Later on I discovered four
matches In the lining of my vest. I
won't repeat my remarks, but my
friends asked me why I didn't talk
that way in the woods. They say my
language would have set fire to a piece
of asbestos." New Orleans Times

miracle was that of Samuel Curnock
Park, 111. The Btory Is best told in
his own words. He says:
"Early in 1S98 I began to expe
rience a worn-out feeling and noticed
that I became tired after very slight
exertion. I continued at my work in
tbe machine shop until July 2, 189S.
when I suffered from a fall, and after
that time grew rapidly worse. A phy
sician waa called and pronounced my
trouble locomotor ataxia. He treated
me for four months and there was no
improvement In my condition. I was
tald that my caae waa incurable, and
that I would continue to grow worse
until death relieved me. I was not
confined to my bed, although I spent
much of my time lying down, and
was entirely unable to work. I could
hardly stand; It seemed as if my legs
would give out from under me, and
my movements were like those of a
drunken man. A cold numbness came
In my right side, and I lost the
strength of my right arm. Then my
eyes began to blur so that I could see
nothing distinctly, and in a short
time I became totally blind in my
right eye.
"Last December I began taking Dr.
Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People
and within a month I waa so much
improved that I determined to persist
In the treatment. At the end of the
second month I was able to return to
my work and have not lost a day on

Since I began taking the pills I have

Cor esponding Secretary of the

writes 'rom the"Astnria,"W"nsh
ington, D. C, the following:
"About two months ago I was
taken very ill with la grippe and
was obliged to go to bed. I took
three bottles of 'eruna with very
beneficial results, and was able
to leave my bed In a week and re
gained my usual strength very
soon.
'I have nothing but praise for
Peruna, and recommend it to
those similarly afflicted when
ever I can. "-Frances M. Ander
son. La gripp-s is. strictly speaking, epi
demic cat-irrh that is to say, a va
riety of acute catarrh which is so con
tagious and runs a course -more or less
definite, the same aa scarlet fever,
whooping cough, etc.
During the acute stages of la grippe
It is not a very fatal disease, but the
condition in which it leaves the sys
tem has caused the death of a count
less number.
Indeed, nearly every person who has
had la grippe within the last three
years finds himself more or less de
ranged by the pernicious effects of
this disease. The majority of those
who have escaped death find life
scarcely worth living.
If this vast multitude of people
could only know with what certainty
and promptness Peruna would relieve
them of all the bad effects which la
grippe has brought upon them, what
an untold amount of suffering would
be averted!
Thousands have already heard how
quickly this remedy will cure in these
cases and have been saved; but tens
of thousands have not yet heard, and

continue to suffer on, dropping into
the grave one by one.
Peruna cures catarrh in all stages
and varieties, whether acute or chron
ic, and is therefore the most effective
remedy ever devised for removing all
the derangements which follow la
grippe.
Samuel M. York writes from Union
Grove, Ala., the following letter:
"Dear Sir: Last week I was taken
with la grippe and catarrhal deaf
ness. I wrote you for advice and fol
lowed your directions.' After taking
two bottles of Peruna I found myself
well of la grippe, and my hearing waa
fully restored. v My heulth is better
than it has been in five years.
"My wife improved in health very
much after taking Peruna." Samuel
M. York.
Miss Caroline J.
writes as follows:
"Three years
Kahl, Otisco, Ind,
had la grippe
trouble. . I was
' and pulmonary
very sick. I had hemorrhages ot
the lungs nearly every day for a
year, and three bottles of your
, Peruna cured me. The doctor
said I had consumption. I am
; now In better health than I have
been for many years-
"I highly recommend Peruna to all
my neighbors and friends. Peruna is
my favorite medicine. I shall always
have Peruna in the house." Miss
, Caroline J. Kahl.
J If you do not derive prompt and
satisfactory results from the use of
Peruna, write at once to Dr. Hartman,
giving a full statement of your case,
; and he will be pleased to give you his
valuable advice gratis.
