ed when long line of carriages drove
 up and Governor Lippitt Of Rhode Is- land and Governor Bushnell of Ohio, with their richly uniformed staff off cers, alighted. Major Mckinley met the two governors at his doorstep and
 greeted them cordially. The major in troduced Governor Bushnell to the l crowd. Governor Bushnell mounted a chair and made a lively and vigorous speech. He predicted that Major Me
 Kinley would carry Ohio by larger
 majority than ever before. Governor
 Bushnell referred to Rhode Island as
 state little in area, but big in patri-
 otism and loyalty to the country-a lit- tie state which they did not measure by feet but by heads He referred to the celebration of Perry's victory and
 to the fact that Commodore Perry was born in Rhode Island, and then intro- duced Governor Lippitt. Governor
 Lippitt said:
 "Goyernor Bushnell and Fellow Citi-
 zens of Ohio-The circumstances which
 bring you here are undoubtedly of greater importance than any circum- stances that have occurred before in this country. The questions to be de-
 cided at the coming election are going to determine the prosperity or the want of prosperity of the United States for
 a good many years to come (Ap-
 plause.) I consider it very great
 privilege to myself and the gentlemen
 with me from Rhode Island to be able
 to personally pay respects to your hon.
 ored citizen-William Mckinley, Gre
 mendous cheering.j We believe that l he will be the next president. (Re- newed noise.) While in Rhode Island
 we cannot cast as many votes as you l can in Ohio, nevertheless as citizen or
 that state I am absolutely certain that | one of the largest, if not the largest, maiorities that ever Rhode Island has given will be given next November to William Mckinley for president. | (Great cheers and cries of 'Hurrah for Rhode Island!o
 1T do not believe there Is any consld-
 erable number of people in that state in fact I am sure there are not many who are willing to take 53-cents for a
 dollar. Applause and laughter.) They believe after they have worked ten hours a day that they should receive a dollar representing 100 cents for their
 labor and not a cheap dollar. (Great
 applause.) They believe something
 should be done in the way of improving the tariff and correcting the disasters which have been caused by the enact-
 ment of the Wilson tariff bill. They
 believe that when your fellow citizen
 is inaugurated as president a change in the tariff law will be made that will fulfill the statement that Major Me-
 Kinley is the advance agent of pros perity.'"
 Governor Lippitt, Governor and Mrs
 Bushnell, Adjutant General Sackett of Rhode Island and Adjutant General and Mrs. Axline of Ohio took luncheon with Major and Mrs. Mckinley. The l two governors with their staffs left at | 4:3o for Cleveland, much pleased with l their visit to Major Mckinley.

 Hillhouse High School.

Successful Candidates for AdlnISS1On 10
 Hillhouse High School.
 The final examinations for entrance to the Hillhouse High school and the Boardman Manual Training High school closed Thursday, and yesterday the papers had all been gone over and the number of students in the entering class determined.
 The new class at Hillhouse will num- Der about 15O. The entering class last year numbered ITO, and the falling off this year is attributed to the hard times, which compel many boys and girls to work who would otherwise be in school. Principal Thomas says that he has been informed by the parents of a number of students who had ex- pected to enter high school this year that their circumstances were such that it was necessary for their children to work the hard times having brought about such state of affairs,
 Mr. Thomas had arranged the pro- gram of recitations and made such ar- arrangements hat when school opened Wednesday the regular routine of stu dy and recitation was at once begun, with no delay being occasioned by or sanization, as is often the case at the beginning of school.
 The students who have passed the re- cent examinations for entrance to Hill- house are as follows. Anna A. Kim berly and Eva A. Matthews of Web- ster school, Rose V. Farrell of Wooster school, Edith M. Dilge of Winchester school, Mamie E. Clarke of Day school, Tessie Illusion of a private school and Marie E. Delaney of the St. Francis school.
 At Boardman school the entering class will number ninety students, a considerable increase over last year class. Of the twenty-four who tried the recent examinations eighteen pass ed. Regular school work opened We'd nesday with no delays, as arrange. ments were made as at Hillhouse to have routine work commenced at once. The following students passed the final examinations for entrance to Board- man: Harold B. Berg, Arthur Bos- worth, Harry Dorman, Fred B. Holt, James F. Loughlin, Albert H. Mitch ell, George M. Potter, Theresa Boyle. Mae c. Concannon, Elizabeth H. Hall, Emma L. Halser, Emma M. Lindon, Viola M. Myers, Gertrude s. Roy, Su- sic I. Sanford, Elizabeth M Sweeney, Gertrude L. Wilson, Marguerite B. Will son.

After losing two heats Frank Agan captured three straight heats and the race
 The first heat of the free-for- all broke the track record of 2:0514, made in an exhibition by Hal Pointer at tho state fair in 1892 In the third heat Sphinxetta, who had been entered by her owner, R. H. Franklin, simply to fill the race, broke her own time of 2:OSh, pacing the mile better than 2:08. The second heat of the 2:15 class causS ed considerable dissatisfaction from ai decision of the judges whereby Azmon was set back from first to second place for running, the judges mistaking Ger main for Azmon. when, in fact, the bay trotted the whole four heats without a single skip.
 The most exciting incident of the day was when Frank Agan drove Robert J. off his feet just before coming unden the wire in the third lap.
