shook hands with Governor McKin-
ley at Columbus the other day and added
him to my handsome and growing list OF
eminent acqnaintances. He looks more
like statesman than any other Ameri-
can l have been at all intimate with
since the untimely death Of Daniel Web
ster. Governor Mckinley Is an ideal
statesman in appearance and bearing.
His head is well shaped, his carriage IS
dignitied and easy and bis manner COM
Portable and refined. Gentleness and re-
pose constitute the two great primary
elements of the gentleman, and Govern
or Mckinley has these.
The true gentleman does not like TO
make anybody feel uncomfortable. The
prig does. We did not talk long, as am
very busy man and cannot pause In
the great battle OF life TO visit with the
various governors with whom L an
thrown in contact, so we merely passed
the time of day, and when had taken
good full breath TO explain this to the
governor l discovered that he had gone.
He was then on his way TO Rhode Island,
where he expected to speak in public.
Columbus is beautiful city, peopled
with a class Of excellent people. The
State house is also located here. have
spoken OF it before. 1t is plain struc-
ture, known as the Buckeye Architec-
tural Wart. 1t consists OF large stand
pipe.with lean-to at each side. IL is
owned by the State. No private person
would accept it.
The Columbus Buggy company Is To-
Gated at Columbus, and supplies num-
Der OF the smaller hotels with goods.
At Columbus | went to see melo-
drama. 1t was called "a aWomaSs Ven
geance, or the Guilty Crime"
Ii was a thrilling piece. 1t supplies
eleven distinct thrills and three oppor-
tupities to 60 out and get an anodYne.
The heroine of the play may be OBJ
served in the center OF the stage at all
times. That is now you know she is the
star. She appears first as lowly girl In
Bingham dress and diamond ring. In
this garb she is betrayed and ruthlessly
jollied into bogus marriage wtiha low,
coarse man, who laughs hoarsely, spurns
her from him, speaks coarsely through
his hat and goes away.
She then resolves to become an heiress.
Her father dies on the stage, losing his
life and his artificial whiskers at the
same time. His death leaves her
wealthy, as her father, though poor, has
invented a machine for boring holes In
macaroni, thus reducing the cost OF its
production over IS per cent, and so the
girl, with entirely new clothing and a
desire for revenge, goes abroad and &C
quires the French language.
When she returns she goes to work
systematically to ruin the man who so
futhlessly jolted her affections and then
went elsewhere. She goes into the stock
market and by means OF cheap boy,
who knows how to buy in such way as
to make money and yet ruin her old
paramount, she has inside OF few weeks
! shaken Wall street so that 1t has TO be
replumbed throughout, and then she
gets the job Of doing il herself.
Toward the close OF the play she gets
ready for the denoument. III ] ever
write another play shall by all means
have a denouement. did not think OF it
before, but 1t is certainly good thing.

ting ready and issuing invitations for
this denouement. 1t is very we'll attend
ed, indeed, and passes off pleasantly.
For the denouement she changes her
dress, appearing in a scarlet plush
cloak which envelopes her enirely.
When she gets ready to forbid the wed
ding OF her old and tough lover, who
has made arrangements to marry a
stoop shouldered heiress whose family
extends back among the Ptolemy's, she
throws this cloak aside as boy would
cast aside his garments before going in
swimming, and stands before him
dressed as she was when he so basely
wooed and then deserted her.
l hate a man who will do that and
then brag about II. A man who will
basely deceive a girl that way and then
laugh about IL ought to be written up in
the papers, and | was glad to see that
the play turned out that way. | always
like to see play like that. 1t elevates
me.
One man was killed In the play. but it
was not so sickening as some deaths are
on the stage. / could have made it
more sickening for twenty-five dollars.
1t is the only weak place in the play.
