PRESIDENT M'KINLEY'S WALKS.

ON entering the White House Mr..
Mckinley did not follow the example of
Mr.. r.Clevelandand make a recluse Of him
self. During his hours of recreation %
enjoyed long horseback rides or walked
along the streets as freely as any pri-
vate citizen, without guards or extra
precaution for his personal safety.
Washington had been his home for
many years as a member of Congress,
and he felt at home, knowing the char
acter and customs OF the residents OK
the national capital.
When the Spanish war broke out he
was compelled to abandon his long
walks and take his exercise chiefly
within the confines OF the White House
grounds, says the Washington Star. In
the first place, the demand upon his
time did not admit of his enjoying the
same relaxation as formerly. Moreover,
during the period OF war IL was felt to
be unsafe for the President TO expose
himself to the possible attack of some
person perhaps devoted TO the cause OF
the enemy. The idea of moving about
followed by guards was repugnant to
him, and therefore he abandoned his
walks along the public thoroughfares.
Thus he got out of the habit of TAX
ing this exercise SO beneficial to his
more closely 10 his work so that he was
pretty well worn down before his vaca-
ton at Mr.. Hannas home in Georgia,
There he dropped again into his old
habits OF recreation, and he is quoted
as expressing n determination not to
again permit himself to relapse into
sedentary habits. He has renewed his
walks and purposes TO keep them up.
President Mckinley knows a thing
nla a Oh N Orin
cleveland never had an opportunity TO
discover. That is that II is n point of
etiquette universally observed at the
national capital never TO obtrude at
tentlons upon the President when he
appears i'm public. ON the street or In
any place OF amusement In Washing
ton the President has the undisputed
privilege Of appearing as any private
citizen. He is never stared at unless II
H. by strangers, and his appearance in
a theatre is not greeted with any sort
of demonstration.
Grant and Arthur. more than any
other presidents. except Mckinley, en-
poyed the privileges OF plain citizen
shin. Grant being fond Of driving alone
and Arthur of walking. The President
may walk where he pleases In the
streets OF Washington, meetine
no further notice than the tipping Of
hat, unless of his motion he stops Co
speak with some one. ONCE seekers
and petitioners never venture To APP
proach him ON the street. His surest
riddauce of the opportunities of the
throng is 10 go out among them.
sir Julian Paunccfote. the British
ambassador. speaking of the American
customs that had impressed him. re-
marked that one OF the most striking
things he had observed was the man
ner i'm which the President was treated
i'm public in Washington. He suggested
that. while foreigner first impression
might be that the seeming indinere-
ence " the public toward the President
when he appeared on the street or at
the theatre vas the result uf an exas.
seraied democracy. IL must become sp-
parent on closer observation that Il was
the highest possible tribute of respect
and consideration.

CALLED DOWN AN AVAIL LANCHE

Is it true that the sound of the hu-
man voice may start a snowslide?
James Perchard. clerk of the State
Court of Apps.ls. is inclined to answer

Rocky Mountain News. He has for 20
years past been almost of the BELIEF

Judge Rogers. after thoroughly re-
viewing the statutes applicable TO me-
chanics liens. says: "ro the policy OF
the law I'm Rhode Island fostering and
encouraging the Improvement OF real
estate through the instrumentality OF
its mechanic lien law falls far short OF
that prevailing in some other states,
still il seems TO me TO clearly go to the
extent of seeing that those having me-
chanics' liens shall have the protection
OF court of equity in administering an

claims attach i'm order that the largest
possible proceeds shall be procured
from the sale of the estate. and that
these proceeds shall be strictly APP

petitioner claims liens. The mortgages
have advertised the real estate for sale
under the powers contained in their
mortgages, claiming that the mort
cages were due and unpaid and that
their right TO sell was fun and com

If anything was due 1t falls far below

must be taken TO fix the amount due,
and that sale under the mortgage

II was strongly urged by the mort
