The Presldent'. speech.

Mrs. Mead, Ladies and Gentlemen: T
cannot refrain from making acknowledge
ment in the presence of the very distin-
g'uished honor which the board of trustees
and officers Of this institution have been
pleased to confer upon me. ! want to as
sure the young ladies Of the graduating
class that / am both delighted and hon
ored to be member Of class of '99.
Massachusetts has been and is first In
many things, but in nothing more than in
educational institutions
Il count myself most fortunate to have
been privileged yesterday to look upon
the faces of graduates of Smith college
that splendid institution of learning for
the education of the women, and / count
myself most fortunate to-day to look upon
the faces of the graduates of this gloriously
historic institution, that has done SO much
for the exaltation of women and whose
influence is felt not only in Massachusetts,
but In every part of our common country
MT. Holyoke is more than 60 years old
to-day, and the influence of this institu-
ton in molding and shaping the citizens
of the nation can never be told.
II am glad that We are demonstrating
In the United States to-day that the boy
shall have no more advantages than the
girl, and Mt. Holyoke and Smith and the
half dozen other institutions of the land
are demonstrating that fact
AN educated womanhood is an open
school for citizenship every day of the
year. and the home is the training school
for the mother, the soldier, and the states
man! I wish for this graduating class all
good things. and ] want you to be assured
that all good things wait upon pure and
noble woman"

arm of DR.. Smith, appeared at the en-
trance, the audience arose.

accompanied him were given seats on
the platform. Mrs. Mckinley, Mrs. VOL
colt, and the other ladies of the party
! sat at the right, in the auditorium. The

Another Strike.

-Four hundred employees Of the Cleve-
land Foundry company struck late
Tuesday afternoon because the COM
pany refused to discharge man who
had ridden OH Big Consolidated car.

came known that he had ridden on car
the molders went to the officers of the
company and demanded his discharge.

demand, and all the men walked out of
the works. This is the first strike in
the nature of sympathetic demon

sfeo. AToN FOR "BAD SAND" "
Railroad Mans Mistake In Handling Gas
 Of Crushed Gold Ore.

The average railroad official, from the President down to the section DossI thoroughly con7ersant with the work that comes h his department. but the following incident shows that even the higher officials can make ms takes. a,.
 Several months ago Q Kansas Clty. Mo-, cornpany bought q carload oL crushed ore in Mexico. AdY1ces were duly received that the ore had been shibped-twenty tons of it. Weeks passed and the ore did not come. The smeIting company politely asked the local agent of the railroad when the ore would arrive. The local agent sald that he had never heard of It. 1ne smelting company then appealed to tue general agent of the road me geh- eral agent gave it up. Along the 4Ine .9 the question was passed untl le reached an official who started out tracer for the carload of ore. A tracer is a document on which every ageht' train conductor and every othef per son who has had anything to do WILL the shipment must say whence ne LOOK it and where he laid it down troIn the mine in Mexico the car ot ore was traced from junction point to 1uncton point until it was well with the rall- road company's local yards at Kansas City, and thence to side track py tne roundhouse and into the possession or the master mechanic.
 A carload of crushed gold ore looks like a lot of yellow sand, and this par ticular carload had been knocked about and disrespected as q car of common sand should be. When the officials were notified that the tracer had chased the car into the master me chanic's track they sent him note asking him about the disposition of the car, giving its number. The mas ter mechanic turned the note over and endorsed it on the back: "The car con. tained bad quality of sand. Some of it I used in the sand boxes of the en- zines, but it was not servicable, so l had 1t scattered along the right of way" The railroad paid the shelter company S180 ton for the "bad sand"
