The boy said he had good home, but he

out for himself. He will be returned to his

LENrZ SCORES SOME POINTS.

Congressman John J. Lentz gave the
Republican side of the house of repre-
sentatives something to think about in
the closing debate on the currency bill.
Lentz denounced the financial legisla-
tion proposed in unmeasured terms and
continued:
"They are shooting down liberty in
South Africa, while you are shooting
it down in the Philippines.
There is evidence sufficient that
the American and English governments
are operating upon parallel lines. The
first blossom of liberty in the Orient to
be cut off by the Republican party of
the United States, the first substantial
struggle for liberty in Africa to be
moved down in its infancy by the
queen of England, with the czar asking
for peace conference.
IF things are not inside out how can
the Republican party stand impotent
and silent while England is shooting to
death a republic in South Africa, and
while under military and imperialistic
powers that patronage has delivered to
the president here, the crime of crimes

DAINTIES MADE
FOR KINSFOLK.
Mistress of the White House
Has Concluded Her Work.
PACKING UP THE BONES
To BE Sent to Relatives and Friends Here
and Elsewhere The President
Pays No Attention to
"A Protest,

The daintiest presents that come to
make glad the homes of numerous can
tonians come from the White House in
Washington. Mrs Mckinley never for
gets her Canton friends and relatives
and her needle work is famous for its
beauty and daintiness. A Washington
special to the Enquirer says:
Mrs. McKinley's Christmas stock of
slippers and neck ties is nearly com
pleted, an she is now engaged in put
ting up these articles for sending away
as holiday gifts to her kinsfolk and
friends. She rarely confers any other
sort of present, believin gthat objects
of her own handiwork are likely to be
most highly appreciated by those dear
to her The slippers she knits herself,
and the ties which are of the string pat
tern, such as the president wears, she
makes up out of silk or satin. Every
Christmas she gives Mr.. Mckinley a
dozen such ornaments for his neck.
Two nieces of the president will spend
the Holidays at the White House this
year-Miss Grace Mckinley and Miss
Sara Duncan, of Cleveland. Probably
Mr.. Abner Mckinley and his wife will
be on hand. but no one else. The
day will be spent very quietly, there
being no children to enliven the cele-
bration of the festal occasion. Dinner
will be served as usual at z o'clock in
the private dining room, which looks
out upon the big lawn in front
FUN BELOW STAIRS.
In the kitchen department things will
be more jolly There will be a Christmas
tree, most likely, for the maids, who
will have in their best young men for
the occasion. The coachman and his
helper, a couple of the assistant
gardeners and a half dozen other re-
tainers will take part in the festivities.
From the boughs of the. generous fir
will be distributed a goodly number of
gifts bestowed by Santa Claus-in other
words, Mr.. Mckinley.
Within the last few weeks many let
ters have reached the White House beg
ging Mr.. Mckinley to refuse to have a
Chistmas tree. The writer's who have
taken up the forestry fad, now so popu-
lar, say that the christmas tree habit"
as they call it, is responsible for an i'm
mense and very lamentable destruction
of young frs and spruces, which would
otherwise grow to make forests, valua-
BILE for lumber and other purposes.
Nothing, they declare, would do so
much to discourage this practice of
arboreal infanticide as a refusal by the
president to take part in it. They as
sert that it is a German idea, anyway,
and distinctly un-American. Up to the
moment of writing, however, the Nc
Kinleys have shown no interest in the
protest
