HE WAS WELL RECEIVED.
The College Boys Gave Their Yell and
Whooped Things Up.

Philadelphia, Feb. 22.-President Nc
Kfnley addressed an intelligent ana
appreciatiye audience at the academy.
By his side on the stage We're assem-
bled the faculty of the University OF
Pennsylvania and many professors ana
executive officials of other prominent
educational institutions The seating
capacity of the academy is 1900. All
seats and boxes were occupied, and
from 400 to 500 persons stood In the rear
of the several galleries. The main por-
ton of the auditorium was reserved FOR
the students of the college.
The appearance of the president on
the stage was the signal for thunderous
applause and, as it died away, the
students broke out with their thrice re-
peated college cry of Pennsylvania
and the municipal band followed with
Hail to the Chief" and the Star
Spangled Banner"
The exercises were opened with
prayer by Bishop Whitaker of the
Protestant Episcopal church. Charles
c. Harrison, provost of the University
of Pennsylvania, delivered an address,
on closing which he introduced Presi-
dent Mckinley.
President Mckinley. as he stepped
forward, was greeted with spontaneous
handclapping from all over the house
and the students again gave their coll
lege cry. 1t was some minutes before
quiet was restored. The presidents ad-
dress was delivered in his customary
easy, graceful manner and with clear
distinct voice, could be heard clearly by
every person in the audience. His re-
marks We're interrupted at frequent in
tervals with applause. The phrase that
Washington and his compatriots had
founded the financial operations of the
government upon the principles that
the national credit was national honor,
met with especially enthusiastic appro-
baton.
Upon the conclusion of the presi-
dents address the university hymn,
Hail Pennsylvania" was sung by all
present with the band accompaniment
and the exercises were then closed
with the benediction by Bishop Whit
aker.
The audience then filed out of the
building and gave vent to cheers for
the president as he entered a carriage
and was driven to the library building
of the University of Pennsylvania es-
corted by the mounted city troops.
At the library a reception was held
in the presidents honor and a luncheon
was served. The president left for
Washington over the Pennsylvania
road on the BIS train.
