Chicago. Oct 9.-This is the big
day of Chicago's festivities, and
ideal autumn weather adds to the

of the Federal building, by Presi-
dent Mckinley in the presence of
members of his cabinet, Premier
Laurier and other prominent

honor in the interval between the
laying of the corner stone and the
first parade, were entertained at
luncheon at the Union League club.
The formal program began when
the president and his guests were
escorted to the federal building
grand stand. 1t was opened by
a brief speech by Secretary Gage.
After invocation Postmaster Gen
eral Smith, the orator of the day,
was introduced. Atthe conclusion
of his address Architect Cobb
handed President Mckinley a
trowel. The president immediate
ly stepped forward, threw a daub
of mortar on the brick work; the
stone, which was suspended from
a windlass, was lowered and the
chief executive declared the stone

The Dismembered Portions of a
Woman's Body Found.

New York, Oct, Detectives
today are searching every house
aud cellar on West Seventeenth
street from Sixth to Ninth avenues
in an effort to find some clue to
the murder of a woman, portions
of whose dismem bered remains
were found yesterday. AT the
same time policemen and boatmen
are dragging the North river for
missing portions of the body.
Physicians who examined the
remains believe the woman to have
been about five feet eight inches
tall, and weighed bout 40 pounds.
She was about forty years of age
and had been mother. She was
not thought to be n working woman
but in all probability she moved
in the higher walks of life.

SPAN OF LIFE LENGTHENINe.
This Authority says We Are Living
Longer Than Our Fathers
Did.

Dr. W. A. Hollis has backed up with
some strong facts his statement that
not only ought man to live to be leo
years old, but the average span of life is
distinctly widening. During the past
half-century the middle arch of life"
has advanced image from about 40 years
10 nearly so. In other words, people
were formerly as old at 1870 far as
regards appearance and feelings-as
they are now at 80. There is no doubt
that the race is learning something of
the rules of health which were in the
olden times so hagrantly violated. Phis
gradusl education Of the people in the
science Of living. coupled with the inn
proved sanitary conditions Of modern
times. would seem TO be leading TO
the postponement of those tokens Of
age which are commonly attributed to
senility. but are really the outcome of
disease. Early maturity means quick
old age, and any nation which forces"
fits young men and maidens, instead Of
giving them plenty of time TO mature,
must expect to hive an early crop of
old men and women. As with a better
understanding Of hygienic laws, and a
! sounder conception of social conditions.
this adolescence is now being delayed.
and more time is given to young people
to prepare for the battle Of life, the
period of old age is being set back. As
| DR.. Hollis shows, the rate at which we
grow old varies TO some extent with the
individual. The progressive structural
l,a
decrepitude of old age are for the most
part the results of casual or prevent
able incidents during a mans previous
life. Nearly every man, at some period
of his early or middle life, throws away
his chances of living to be very old by
reckless handling of himself. Out oil
