THE INAUGURATION COMMITTEES.
They Are What Hanna Went to See
the President-Elect About.

CLEVELAND, o., November 49,
Speaking OF his trip to Canton to an
Associated Press representative to-day,
National Republican Chairman NJ A.
Hanna said he made the journey simply
to pay his respects to the President
elect and to discuss with him the de-
tails Of the inauguration ceremonies.
1T seems to have become the custom"
said Mr.. Hanna, "for the national chair
man to appoint the committees, mar
shals. and other officials who have super
vision of the Inauguration details, and
my visit to Major Mckinley was largely
to discuss these matters"
Asked in regard to Major Mckinley 8
visit to Cleveland. Mr.. Hanna said:
II think the President-elect and his
wife will come to Cleveland for time
as soon as Mrs. McKinley's health will
permit. She has been quite i'll, having
been threatened with pneumonia. and
her recovery is slow, though she is now
able TO go out In a carriage"
Mr.. Hanna stated that nothing what
ever had been mentioned between the
President-elect and himself in regard 10
a trip South. 1t Is possible that Mr. and
Mrs. Mckinley will be the guests OF Mr.
and Mrs. Hanna at their southern home
during a portion of the winter. but so
far the matter has not been discussed
Asked II Cabinet matters had been
taken up during his visit to Major Nc
Kinley. the national chairman said he
did not care to discuss that subject.

W. Curry, chairman of the Democratic

ing in his room at the Hotel Savoy. His
death was direct result OF injuries re-
ceiyed while being initiated into a Des

blindfoided and placed on a chair with an
iron seat. Then a lighted lamp was placed
under the seat, with the expectation that
when it got too hot he would jump But
he sat still until he was badly burned.
His trousers were burned away, and the
flesh fearfully scorched. He was put in
new clothes. and did not realize at the
time that the injuries were serious In a
few days blood-poisoning set In, and he
grew steadily worse.
1t was his desire that the real cause
of his injuries should not be made
public and another cause was assigned
for the illness, the truth only becoming
public to-day. An evening paper pub
iished a highly sensational story. 10 the
effect that the injuries were caused by
placing him. In the process of the initia-
ton ceremony. In an electric chair and
turning on a current. which burned him
badly, but this is denied by the Elks.
He lived at Leon, and was leading
attorney. The body will be taken there

delivered the next address. that was I'M
doubtedly the great speech OF the eve
ming. He was remarkably handsome ana
graceful, and speaks with rare ease. lie
told how he had recently been In the
company Of Barrie, that prince OF IDEAL
lists. and at the same time shared
the companionship OF the worlds foremost
realist whose name he would not give.
but said that In a short time he found
himself loving both men. These dine-
rences between idealism and realism are
not arbitrary" said he. but reside In the
human mind.
"Idealsm and realism are not antago-
nistic. They are temperamental. Some
men are born realists: other are born
idealists. There are honesty and truth in
both.
Shakespeare, the greatest OF the IDEAL
lists. is also the greatest OF the real
lists. and Shakespeare. the greatest OF
idealists. In also the greatest OF realists.'
The speaker then conjured up picture
of our favorite ideals-eould we summon
them 10 our presence--of Helen, the
beautiful; Penelope, the pure: King
Arthur. the strong, Sir Galahad, OF
knightly purpose. and the thousand other
wonderful beings that throng the countless
pages OF literature" and he concluded
by saying:
'T can do no more than quote the
words Of that great man, Bishop Brooks,
who said that there are two Kinds OF
illusions-the illusion OF the Mage.
which comes to the weary wanderer, and
disappears before his senses have fairly
perceived It; and then that other illu-
sion. which comes to the traveller when
he enters Switzerland and sees the great
Mountains outlined against the clouds I;
but which do not change, for the strength
Of the eternal hills is against them.'
STRIKING ADDRESS.
The last OF the regularly appointed
speakers was Rev. Daniel Duianey Ad-
olson. Of Brookline. Mass, whose adj
dress was forcibly delivered, and abound
Ell in striking thoughts. His position
IL expressed i'm these closing sentences:
II do not believe that our literature
now and I'm the future, is 10 be a true
union OF the ideal and the real and the
caricature will be put aside. The great
est and truest literature has always made
onward the progress OF the human
soul. That literature is greatest which
makes onward and upward, for charac-
ter, truth. and God"
There were two volunteer speakers
Rev. j. Mex. Fellows. OF New York, who
argued that the ideal and the real could
not exist apart, and that there was no.
thing too real not to be IDEAL. and vice
versa. The other speaker was Rev.
Henry l.. Myrick. Of Sing Sing, who de-
voted n few minutes TO poking fun at
the learned gentlemen who had preceded
him. and provoked much laughter by his
humorous and pointed anecdotes.
The congress then adjourned.
