NOT BUILT' THAT WAY.

It has been minated that
Hon. Jas. B.. Wells, smarting
under the treatment received
recently at the hands Of pro-
fessed friends, would sulk in
his tent and not support the
nominees of his party; that bis
we'll known sound money prin.
ciples might cause him even
to vote The opposition ticket.
Those who are the authors
of such reports either do not
know the man or are malicious
in their utterances. In converse
ticn yesterday, Judge Wells
said: 81 propose to stay with
my party; never thought of
anything else. l believe we
sound money men should fight
the battle out inside the party.
Let the extremists on either
side leave us, if they wish to
do so. We have had wars be-
fore and the party survived
them. This silver excl ement is
simply a wave sweeping over
the country. Everything will
come out all right after a while.

part of the people all the time
and all the people part of the
time, but you can't fool all the
people all the time.' | am a

Judge Wells may be relied
on as heretofore 10 stay with
the colors and those who know
the stalwart nature of the strug-
giles he has passed through as
a democrat have no uneasiness
about where he will be found at
the proper time. 1t will Meth

a second class boiler purchased
from the Houston Heights mat

with terrible force, but making
little noise. Henry G. Lyons
whose home was formerly in
St. Louis, was pressman and
also ran the engine. He was
instantly killed. His right leg
was cut off and hurled a long
distance from the trunk, and
his left arm was also severed
from the body. His abdomen
was horribly torn and his

three children in San Antonio.
A section of the boiler twelve
feet long sped through the air
and a block away..it struck the
general offices of the Southern
Pacific Railway in the Coyle
building, tearing out the entire
front on the second floor. The
great mass of iron passed on
through to the rear of the
building. General Superintend
ent w. G.. Van Week was at
his desk debating letters to
Miss Matte Loeb, his acting
stenographer. The boiler struck
no one, but the brick, mortar,
timbers and other debris play
ed frightful havoc. Superin-
tendent Van Week was struck
on the head and arm by flying
bricks and timbers. His left
arm was horribly mangled and
his head cut in half a dozen
places. One of the wounds is
in the base of the skull and is
regarded as being extremely
serious, though hopes are en-
tertained that he may recover.
His acting stenographer,
Miss Matte Loeb, was thrown
a distance of twenty feet and
there a mass Of bricks and
timbers three feet deep fell up
on her, crushing her to sn5h an
extent that soon after being eX-
tricated she died. She leaves

them being Sterne, the mannf-

 Major Mckinley was but B years old when he was elected by the people of his district to represent them in con eress. There he soon made his mark, and was returned at each subsequent election until that of 1890, ill which year Q gorrymander of his district de- fcated him by majority of only SOP. This was the eliminating one of several efforts on the part of the Democratic legislature to gerrymander Mckinley out of congress.
 While in congress he served on the committee on revision of laws, the Ju- dietary committee, the committee on expenditures ill the postoffice depart ment and the committee on rules. When General Garfield received the nomination for the presidency, MT. Me Kinlcy was assigned to the vacancy on the committee oil ways and means. He served on heilast mentioned committee until the expiration of his last term as representative. While chairman of this committee lie framed the Mckinley bill, which afterward became law and which still bears his name.
 Mckinley was protege of ex-Presi- dent Hayes. and up to the time of the latter S death he recognized the ex- president as his adviser and counselor. He was in General Hayes regiment

M'KINLE7's MOTHER.

valid, she makes and receives calls and often goes on shopping tours. Mrs. Mckinley cares little for dress. al- though her toilets are always in excel lent taste.
 Her face betrays faint languor, sug- gestive of the invalid, but it is fair and bears stamp of beauty, in spite of the 49 years she carries. Her i'll health dates from girlhood. As student she with difficulty undertook the studies of the course, by reason of this condition, but with constant care and frequent medical attention she overcane all trouble sui ficiently to enjoy life and to taste of it's pleasures. Her actual invalidism dates from the birth of their second child, ill 1871. This child died in it's infancy and was followed by the first child, daugh- ter of 3 years, short time afterward. Her mother also died about this time. These sorrows were more than she could bear, and she has never recovered. At present i'll appearance and in actual health her condition is better than for several years previous.
 A little story of Mckinley home acts while governor may be of interest. No less than his attention to his wife. his thought and care for his mother. particularly since his fathers death in 1892, have attracted comment. It had been his custom while at home in Can. ton to take his mother to church eacI Sunday morning. When he went to Go lumbus as governor he determined te keep up the practice as much as possi- ble, and unless the press of public busi- ness was very great he always slipped quietly over 10 Canton from the state capital on Sunday mornings and walked to church with his mother on his arm. The next train would carry him to Go lumbus, where his wife awaited his coming. Naturally the mother looks with pride on such son, and she fol lows with keen interest the progress oi his presidential canvass

 In His Work.
 Major McKinley's home life is very happy, despite the fact that his wife is an invalid Mrs. Mckinley was Miss Ida Saxton, daughter of James and Mary Saxton of Canton, O. She received an excellent education when girl, spent some time abroad and became her fa- ther's assistant in his bank, where it was said that her fair face attracted bououets and bank notes to the window. s.she must be trained, said her father, ito buy her own bread if necessary, and not to sell herself to Inairimoily.
 She had many suitors, but Major Me Kinley, then rising young lawyer, yanouished all rivalry removed the young woman from the cashiers s win dow and won from honest James Saxton these words when the hand of the daugh- ter was gained:
 You are the only man have ever known to whom I would intrust my daughter. ,
 Mrs. Mckinley has always assisted her husband in politics. Her Ill health has iii no wise deterred her from enjoy ing the political honors he has won, nor has it prevented her from being wise counselor Her presence has time and again served as an inspiration to her husband. When political prefermens first came to former Governor Mckinley, it was his wife who convinced him that he should accept She believed implicit ly ill his talents, and that his seryic5 would be for the good of the state she was certain She has never wavered in her faith in her husbands c 'yictions, and consequently she is a protectionist and believes the country must have protective tariff law

Her i'll. ness has been overcome by her affection, and she has travelca .,eoasanSss Of miles when she was weak in body merely that she might be near him. She has encour- aged him by word, look and presence, and he has in knightly style returned the favors and reciprocated the sacred affection Her home life has been short, for out of the 9 years of married lifd more than 20 have been passed by hef husband in the public service. She has lived in hotels doubtless source of re- gret since her fragile body made il more than imperative that she should have quiet place. She has never com plained, but has urged Governor Mo. Kinley to push forward in his public ca. reer.
 Mrs. Mckinley spends most of her time in a cozy apartment on the second floor, and much of her leisure is devoted to crocheting those dainty little slippers which have so many times brought sun shine into gloomy hospital wards in va. rious parts of the country. It is said that she has knitted over l, 600 pairs of these slippers i'll her 20 years of invalid life. In appearance Mrs. Mckinley is of medium height with brown hair and large deep blue eyes.
