from the State Department to pay his re-
spects TO the new President His coming
was badly timed. He entered the White
House Immediately previous TO the ar
rival OF the outside delegations He
walked up stairs to the Presidents office
but found him not in. He descended
to the lower floor and met the President
in the private hall. The formal meeting
between the President and Mr.. Olney
was very brief; so brief, in fact that it
created unpleasant comment that the new
President had been dscourteous to the
retiring Secretary Of State.
At O'Clock luncheon was served and
the crowds grew greater. Immediately
after luncheon Mr.. Mckinney received the
Americus Club, of Pittsburg; the, Capital
Glee Club, of Columbus, and the Marquette
Club, of Michigan.
The President announced that at
O'Clock he would give "A general reception
to the public in the East Parlor. This was
attended liy thousands of people and lasted
over two hours. He shook hands with every
one and chatted pleasantly with the hun
dredS in the throng with whom he was
personally acquainted.
One OF the amusing Incidents of the day
was when the staff of the governor OF
North Carolina, after retiring from visit
to the Presidents office, collided when
going downstairs with Gov. Drake, of
Iowa. and his staff, coming upstairs
There was crush, and ii was only 1e-
lieved by the heroic conduct of Lieut..
Gilmore, on duty at the White House, who
taught the gentlemen from North Carolina
and Iowa, the art of untangling their
swords when mixed nm with their legs
Secretary Porter also hurried to the
scene and assisted the policeman He was
gallant in the extreme. One young lady,
from Iowa, typical flower of the prarie,
was caught in the jam, and was almost
fainting when the Presidents secretary
came to her rescue and escorted her into
one of the pariors below, where shequckly
recovered.
The Canton friends of President and Mrs.
Mckinley called, by invitation, last even
ing, and spent an hour at the White House.
The invitation was extended TO the per
sonal friends of the President and his wife
only,
The special train which brought the Presi-
Dental party from Canton will return to-
day, and those who are not to remain in
Washington, or the Presidents relatives
and friends, will go back to Ohio in it.
The Presidents mother and sister Will
remain in Washington for fortnight.

YOUNG LEE BOWS TO CUPID
Son of the Consul General Sur
renders to Miss AragOn.
She Is the Young Lady Who Was
Imprisoned by the Spaniards.
A Pretty Love Romance.

When young people become involved In
diplomacy it not infrequentIy happens
that that dun pastime is succeeded by the
sprightlier game OF love.
No better nor more romantic illustration
of this fact has come to light in many
years than the one brought out in re-
port from Tampa Fla, which couples the
names OF Fitzhugh Lee, jr, son of the con-
sul-generai TO Havana, and Senorita Gle
mencia Aragon, of Cuba.
Miss Aragon, it VIII he recalled, is the
young Cuban lady Of good family who went
into the insurgent ranks in order 70 nurse
her sick brother, and when she proudly ac-
knowiedged it was thrust into prison by the
Spanish authorities.
Her departure from Havana, about
month go, was attended by many startling
disclosures concerning the treatment Of
women by the Spaniards 1t was while the
young lady, who is reported TO be both
beautiful and brilliant, was being thus mis-
treated that young Lee, to whom she is
ROW reported engaged, first made her ac-
quaintance.
The bravery and devotion TO her brother
which she displayed throughout aroused his
admiration and respect. He sought further
acquaintance with her.
Senorita Aragon was also touched by
the chivalrous sympathy held out TO her
by the young American.
Their friendship soon ripened into some
thing much warmer. The engagement, so
the report states, followed, but almost i'm
| medIately Weyler's edicto Of expulsion caused
the young lady to leave Havana for Tampa
Mr. Lee followed shortly afterwarG, but
| the fair exile had sailed for New York, and
it is said that he is now preparing to
follow her to that city also.
When questioned on that point, Mr..
Lee would say nothing further than that
he had come TO this country on personal
business
The only point upon which Mr.. Lee
would talk was concerning the story
| printed in some New York papers, Of
| senorita Aragon's trouble on board the
Olivia. He denied this story with great
| deal of warmth.

SOLDIER DID hIs DUTY.
A Member of the Fourth Maryland
stopped a Cable Car.

| Stopped a Cable Car.
An exhibition of obstancy on the part of
q gripman, and of pluck on the part of one
| of the soldiers of the Fourth Maryland
| Regiment, attracted the attention of the
| crowd on Pennsylvania avenue, at the in
| tersecton Of Seventh street, yesterday
morning. The officer In command was
| marching the troops from their head
| quarters to the Pennsylvania depot, and
had decided to turn the regiment from the
| Avenue through Seventh, around into b
street In crossing the Seventh street
| cable line, barely company had passed
| before a cable car approached, and an
| officer ordered one of the file closers to
''stop that car
The man detailed for this duty was q
fine-looking young fellow and bore him
| self like field marshal. He stepped
| promptly to the car, saluted and asked
| the gripman to hold his car until the
regiment passed
Not on your life,'' snapped the grip
man, brusquety.
"Indeed?'' asked the young soldier,
elevating his eyebrows.
We'll; wait and see,'i responded the
gripman.
The soldier walked cody to the front
of the car and laid himself, full length
across the tracks, a few feet in advance of
the fender. He kept his position patiently
and all the while the regiment was NOV
ing. The gripman pulled back his lever,
but the car was upon the plucky young
soldier in a moment The fender touched
BIN and showed him along before it for
several feet.
The griplnan then realized the deter
mination Of the young soldier TO stick
to his post, and brought the car to a stop.
When the last man in the regiment had
| crossed the track, the soldier got up,
saluted the gripman, and hurried to the
front 20 rejoin his command. The crowd
on the corner had been bowling with de-
light at the young mans pluck, and a
hearty cheer broke from them as he
arose to his feet. He had done his duty and
stopped the car

"United States Senate,
Committee on Foreign Relations.

Committee on Foreign Relations,
February %, 1897.
"HOn. Richard Olney, Secretary OF State,
''sir-Ex-Queen Liliuokalani is desirous
OF witnessing the Inauguration of the
President and Vice esident-eIect on the
4th OF March. and she has made applca-
ton through her friends for two seats,
one for herself and one for her escort.
1T is impossible for the committee of
arrangements TO provide these places, ex-
cept III the diplomatic gallery, but as the
tickets to that gallery are TO he sent
to you for distribution, the committee
does not feel at liberty TO assign seats
in the gallery TO anyone.
1T is, however, the judgment Of the
committee of arrangements that you pro-
vide the seats for the ex-queen out OF
the sixty TO be sent TO you for the use
of the diplomatic corps
Very respectfully,
JOHN SHERMAN,
Chairman of the Committee OF Arrange
ments.''
1t has been stated that Mr.. Julius A
Palmer, private secretary TO the ex-queeu,
spent two days at the Capitol making inn
Fortunate requests for tickets TO any OF
che galleries for the queen Mr. Palmer de-
MES this lie says no request was ever
made by Liliuokalani for tickets in the
diplomatic gallery Of the Senate, there
fore none was ever refused. Furthermore
that none eoftheex-queen's of attendants knew
for certainty that she would be in the
city. on inauguration day, until last Fri
day. She then expressed a wish to be
present, and be went to her friend, Sena-
tor Perkins OF California. He was referred
by him to Senator Elkins, towhom he made
the request.
He further says that there was not the
least hesitation in granting the request and
tue only regret seemed to be that, owing
to the lateness of the hour, but two seats
could be promised.
When he returned TO his hotel he learned
that Senator's Sherman and Elkins had ar
ranged with Secretary olney TO place two
seats in the diplomatic gallery at the dis
position of the Hawaiian queen, and that
just as soon as the Department OF State
received the list from the committee, these
| tickets OF invitation were sent by special
messenger to the hotel. The ex-queen
| was accompanied to the gallery by her
Hawaiian secretary, Hon. Joseph Helleluke,
K. c. K.
1T is absolutely false" Mr. Palmer
also said, THAT any prior application
was ever made by any person in her be
half. 1t was perfectly natural that she
should have an especial interest in the
Inauguration OF President Mckinley, be-
cause Mr.. d. NJ. Mckinley the Presidents 5
brother. was United States consul at
Honolulu, and was thereafter appointed
by King Kalakaua, her maiesty's brother,
Hawaiian consul at San Francisco"
The affair has stirred up quite a tempest
among the representatives of the Hawaiian
republic. They feel that u slight has
| been put upon their governme Mt, and there
are many other people of the same Cpin-
| ion The incident occasioned much ad-
verse criticism directed atSecretary Olney,
| and for that reason the letter from Senator
| Sherman was on exhibition at the State
Department Yesterday.

is generally no necessity They are grow.

There is no reason why almost every wo-

It cures all forms of female weakness and
disease. Its effect is Immediately percepti-
BILE in the better feeling of the patient. It
forces out impurity, soothes the infamma-
ton that ls always present in disorders of
this kind, promotes regularity, and stops
debilitating drains on the system. It cures
nervousness, irritability, sleeplessness, lack
of appetite, lack of vitality.
