Pres. French Receives Welcome
Huronite.--Dr. C. H. French of the Huron college arrived home last evening from the east, where he has been doing such successful work for the college, and was met at the station by a large crowd of students and townspeople to welcome him. There was an immense crowd at the train, and the demonstration was one of the most enthusiastic ever offered anyone in this city. The students gave their college yells, and two bands, the city and the college, were present to add their part to the welcome, and entertain the crowd before the arrival of the train, which was somewhat late. Dr. French arrived shortly after ten o'clock. He was met by the entire delegation, headed by Hon. E. L. Able, president of the board of trustees of the college, who has been one of the most earnest local workers for the endowment. President French was taken slowly up Dakota avenue in Mr. Abel's automobile, the bands and students forming a procession behind him. At the corner of Fourth and Dakota the procession broke up, and Dr. French was taken directly home.
