President McKinley's Address.

This ceremony over, President Mckinley
delivered his inaugural address. He
said:
Fellow Citizens--In obedience to the
will of the people and in thier presence,
by the authority vested in me by this
oath, / assume the arduous and response
BILE duties of President of the United
States, relying on the support of my
countrymen and invoking the guidance
Of Almighty God Our faith teaches that
there is no safer reliance than upon the
God of our fathers who has so singularly
favored tho American people in every
national trial and who will not forsake
us so long as we obey his commandments
and walk humbly in His footsteps.
The responsibilities of the high trust TO
which have been called, always of grave
importance, are augmented by the pre-
vailing business conditions entailing idle
ness upon willing labor and loss to useful
enterprises. The country is suffering
from industrial disturbances from which
speedy relief must be had. Our financial
system needs some revision; our money is
all good now, bu tits value must not further
be threatened. 1t should all DC put upon
an enduring basis, not subject To easy
attack nor its stability TO doubt or dis
pute. Our currency should continue under
the supervision of the government. The
several forms Of our paper money offer, in
my Judgment a constant embarrassment
To the government and safe balance i'm
the treasury Therefore / believe il nee
essary to devise n system which, without
diminishing the circulating medium or
offering premium for its contraction will
present remedy for these arrangements,
which, temporary in their nature, might
well, in the years of our prosperity, have
been displaced by wiser provisions With
adequate revenue secured, but not until
then, we can enter upon such changes i'm
our finance laws as will, while insurng
safety and volume To our money, no longer
impose upon the necessity of maintaining
so large gold reserve with its attendant
and inevitable temptations TO spceula-
tion. Most of our financial laws are the
outgrowth of experience and trial and
should not be amended without invcstiga-
tion and demonstration of the wisdom of
the proposed changes We must % be- sure
we are right and make haste slowly,
If, therefore, Congress i'm its wisdom shall

STANDING OF THE POLO CLUBS.
WALCOTT DEFEATED.

Tommy West met and defeated Joe Wal
colt, the colored boxing wonder, last
night mt the Broadway Athletic Club
Throughout the 20 rounds the work of
West was evidently superior to that of
Walcott, and when Referee Dick Roche
gave his fiat there was not dissent
ing voice from any of the 5000 persons
who witnessed the fight. Up TO the tenth
round Walcott made fairly good show
ing but from that out was clearly out
pointed. How the battle went from that
Round 10-Walcott opened with left
in the face, West sent back left to the
throat and then he swung hard right
In the ribs. West sent two hot lefts in the
face, and Wolcott clinched. West rushed
and jabbed "A left on the neck. Walcott
swung right on back of head and ripped
in a left and right on body.
Round ll-west put his left hard on the
face for beginner and then sent his
right 20 the wind. Wolcott pushed his
left glove to the stomach, but West sent
right and left smashes on the jaw West
forced Walcott To the ropes with a left on
face and u right on the body. Walcott
came back with left swing on the ear
and right uppercut on the body. At the
end of the round Vests left ear was
bleeding.

The Harvard Varsity crew went ont on

some time before taking n spin in the

SHREDDED CORN FODDER.
An Eastern Experience With Husker and
Shredder-The Cheapest Plan.
A New York correspondent Of The
National Stockman, who has been en-
deavoring to come nearest to the points
of profit in the way Of producing the
corn crop and realizing profit through
the manufactured product, beef, pork
and butter, relates the following expe-
rience:
To facilitate the work, cheaper the
cost of production and have the manure
product in the best possible form we
have been thrashing and shredding our
corn crop of about 20 acres for two or
three seasons. In 1895 we thrashed and
no material loss followed, but we were
not fully satisfied and determined to
learn something more In 1896 we pro-
cured the services Of a husker and
shredder, which, to say the least proved
very expensive, costing the price of the
coal, about the same gang as is required
to thrash grain, and added to this
cents per bushe3 (of ears). was quite
