An interesting inci'ent of the Ohio
campaign was dinner at SIubenville on
Thursday, in honor Of Mckinley, Q!
which FIVE thousand persons partook. =
The service knocked the tin plate liar
silly. Everything that was either eaten
or drunk was served on tin. Tin plates
held the sandwiches and biscuits, and
coffee was Dipped from tin buckets into
tin cups By tin dippers and sweetened
by sugar taken from tin pans by tin
spoons. 1t was typically tin dinner
from first to last and every piece of tin
was of Anne -ican make.
