of the 55th congres« was launched
upon the unknown seas of legislation.
Simultaneously at both ends of the oap-
itol, Speaker Heed in the house and
Vice-President Huhart in the senate,
dropped their gavels and called to or

and a breeze just strong enough to keep
the stars and stripes snapping from
the flagstaff*.
A t the capitol crowds swarmed into
the corridors at an early hour and
ciioked the marine steps as they ascend
ed to the galleries from which they
were to view the show. As is usual on
such occasions, the reserved galleries
were carefully guarded, admission be
ing only by card, and the public had
great difficulty wedging itself into the
limited space set aside foi it.
