PrssIdent Mckinley stirs up the Enthus-
iasm of the Southern People by His
His Timely Patriotic Addresses
Pinar del Rio Province In Bad shape
Mckinley Cheered by GeorgIans.

President Mckinley participated in
the southern peace jubilee at Atlanta,
Ga, and made speech before the
Georgia legislature which aroused the
most intense enthusiasm when he said:
Sectional lines no longer mar the map
of the United States. Sectional feeling
no longer holds back the love we bear
each other. Fraternity is the national
anthem, sung by chorus of As states
and our territories at home and beyond
the seas. The Union is once more the
common altar of our love and loyalty,
our devotion and sacrifice. The old
flag again waves over us in peace with
new glories which your sons and ours
have this year added to its sacred folds.
Every soldiers grave, made dur
ing our unfortunate civil war, is trib-
ute to American valor. And the time
has now come in the evolution of senti-
ment and feeling under the providence
of God, when in the spirit of fraternity
we should snare with you in the care
of the graves of the Confederate sol
iers. The cordial feeling now happily
existing between the north and south
prompts this gracious act and If IT
needed further justification it is found
in the gallant loyalty to the Union
and the flag, so conspicuously shown
in The year just passed by the sons and
grandsons of these heroic dead"
The southrons almost went wild in
their pleasure at these words and it is
generally conceded that the Presidents
address has marked an epoch in
history.
The President made tour of south
ern cities and at every point was
greeted with the greatest enthusiasm
Speeches delivered at Tusl1egee and
Montgomery, Ala, and at Savannah
Ga, were cheered to the echo by thou
sands of citizens. At the latter place
the President reviewed 10000 troops
stationed there.
The burden of the Presidents ad
dresses was the retention of the eastern
possessions wrested from Spain anc
the applause of the multitudes indi
Gated their most hearty approval.

One I,uliet,s work.

Private Thos. j. Collins, Co. l., 18th
u. S. infantry, at TT. Wayne, Detroit
was cleaning his Krag-Jorgenson rifle
on the upper floor of the barracks
when it was accidentally discharged.
The bullet cut through Collins foot
and passed through the ceiling and
plaster and struck Private Sands, OF
Co. II, in the neck, passed close TO the
bone, went into his arm and passed
through, breaking the bone. 1t then
passed through another two-inch oak
floor and finally landed in the base
ment. The hole in Collins foot is not
larger than lead pencil, and both
floors are cut through without hardly
a splinter being torn off the sides OF
the hole. Sands may not recover.
Collins didn't know it was loaded.
