TWAS BUCKEYE DAY.
Large Delegations Of Ohioans at
the Nashville Exposition.
President Mckinley the Guest of Honor
His Speech AT the Auditorium-A
Popular Ovation Given Mrs.
Mckinley.

NASHVILLE, Tenn, June 11.-This is
Ohio day at the exposition, and large
delegations of police, militia, members
of secret orders and general visitors
are here from Cincinnati. Toledo, Co
lumbus and Cleveland, as we'll as the
smaller cities and towns of the Buckeye
state.
President Mckinley and party ar
rived at the Union depot early, having
made the trip by slow stages from
Washington. They were escorted by
the exposition executive committee to
the Maxwell house, where they took
breakfast, after which Gov. Taylor
was received. At 1880 the president
and party, accompanied by Gov. Bush
nell and his staff, were escorted to the
Centennial grounds.
The streets were lined with admiring
thousands, and as this is pre-eminently
an educational center, a large portion
of the crowds was made up of students
of both sexes and of both races.
As the head of the procession turned
into the main entrance of the eXposi-
ton grounds a battery of artillery
doomed forth the national salute of As
guns.
1t was within the grounds, and led
by the Centennial chimes, which rang
forth from the top of the Administra-
ton building, that the enthusiasm
reached its climax. The enthu-
siasm was shared by the visit
ors to the full, and to them
was the added incentive of the
beauty of the buildings and the
grounds which burst upon them for
the first time. Certainly Tennessee in
general and Nashville in particular,
are justified in the pride felt and ex-
pressed over the work they have ac-
complished. The buildings-the Par
thenon, particularly-are beautiful in
design and finish, and beautiful be-
yond any thing contemplated when
the exposition vas in embryo, and
filled with exhibits hat would be
c%reditable in any fair of any nation on
earth.

Sorry He Spoke.

Almost the last work that Sir Edwin
Landseer vas engaged on was a life
sized picture of Nell Gwyn passing
through an archway on a white pal
frey. This picture, in which the horse
alone was finished, was bought by one
of the Rothschild family, and given to
Sir John Millais to complete. One
morning a celebrated art critic called,
and was much impressed by this work.
'Ah, to be sure" he said, going up
close and examining a deerhound,
which almost breathed, in the fore
ground of the picture, show easily one

THE LADY OF The WHITE HOUSE.
outstretched hands of her husband,
who hurried to meet and greet
her and conduct her to a seat
by his side, secretary to the
president John Addison Porter, and
wife, being Immediately behind her. A
huge bunch of roses was handed Mrs.
Mckinley from the auditorium floor
and as she bowed and smiled her
thanks the crowd again broke into
cheers. Incidental to the speaking
which followed was the applause which
greeted any reference to Tennessee's
loyalty to the Union. And when Presi-
dent Mckinley declared Tennessee's
Sol were now loyal to the core, and
that this Union, a third of a century
ago so nearly disrupted, was now
bound to stand for all time, the boom
of applause and the o a of enthusiasm
vas something long to be remembered
and gratifying to every northener
present. After the conclusion of the
ceremonies in the Auditorium, which
were very much added to by the musis
of lines band, the president and soma
of his party visited the Parthenon,
which is the art repository, and the
Children's building and then repaired
to the West Side club house, a hand
some structure near the Administra-
ton building. In the ladies' parlor
there Mrs. Mckinley held an informal
reception. Later, she and the presi-
dent gave a reception to women only
in the Women's building.

CONSUL-GENERAL F1TZHUGH LEE.
He (Dr. Ruiz was about IS years Of age. a
dentist by profession, married, and resided with
his wife and children at the town of GUIANA

18th of February, 1897, about 9 a. m, at his house
IN Guanabacoa, charged with being connected
with the attack on a railroad train on the night
Of the 10th of January, 1897, at a point nearly
midway between Guanabacoa and Habana
about two and a ha If miles from the latter city
L Tue evidence OF his most intimate friends
and that taken before the military judge, as
Ger record submitted with the commissioners
report, show he was quiet and domestic in his
tastes, a peaceful American citizen, engaged in
che pursuit OF his profession; that he took no
part in the military or political proceedings on
this island, nor had at any time any COM
+aaunication by writing or otherwise with those
engaged in the insurrection, and that at the
time of the attack by armed inSurrectionist
on the train, he was in the house Of a %neighbor
and friend, opposite his own, in Guanabacoa,
until 10 p. m, and then went to his own abode,
where he passed the night, and knew nothing
of said attack until next morning, when it was
known generally to the public.
He was taken from his home and profession,
wife and small children, carried to Jail, and
thrust into a cell marked L. in the diagram,
and whose dimensions are given in the report
of the commissioners, being one Of the three
smallest cells of the jail used for keeping pris-
oners In solitary confinement. The dimensions
of the cell in which DIR. Ruiz was confined are
greater than given In my previous reports,
which were based upon the statements then re-
ceived from persons who did and could not
measure it; but the fact remains that he was

The Grain-O Law Suit.

Rochester, n. Y, May 10, lS97.!-The
great $4,000 damage suit instituted by a
Michigan Cereal Co. against the Genesee
Pure Food Co. is at an end. They settled it
small sum of $500 and, as a practical re-
suit, Grain-O is in greater demand than
ever. The new plant only just completed is
to be duplicated so that not only the old
friends of the delicious food drink which
completely takes the place of coffee, but the
new friends it is making every day. can be
supplied. The beverage which the children,
as well as the adult, may drink with benefit
will be furnished in unlimited quantities.
Suits may come and suits may go. but
Grain-O goes on forever.-N. Y. Mail and

A Story About ..Old Hickory"

Whenever the anniversary of the
battle of New Orleans comes around
anecdotes about Andrew Jackson are
in order. During his presidency a GER
tain clerk showed a marked ~disinclina-
ton to pay his board bill. He would
give notes readily enough, buth lie would
not pay them. The landlady, when all
other means failed, went to see Presi-
dent Jackson. He listened attentively,
and told her to get the clerks note for
the amount. She obeyed, and Jackson
took the note and Endorsed it. Now,
madam" said he, put that in the bank
for collection, and we shall see which
of us shall have to pay the money!
The clerk paid the note, and afterward
apologized to Jackson. and promised
to mend his ways.-Golden Days.
