with her. He has been known to do
this n dozen times in day.
For Mrs. McKinlcy's sake White
House etiquette has been radically
altered. In other administrations It
has been customary for the president
to sit at one end OF the table at state
dinners and the lady of the executive
mansion mt the other. But Mrs. Nc
Kinley has always been given the seat
of honor at the right of her husband,
where he could hear her slightest wish.
When great affairs of the nation were
at stake, he has always given her the

siblc. When they travel together, she
is shielded in many ways by his con-
stant care.
This gcntlencss Is even extended to
others. There are many who can testi.
fy to 1t. His custom of giving flowers
to casual callers Is an Instance of this.

ciatcd.
A case in point Is an incident which
occurred early in his administration,
when representatives of several labor
organizations called upon him to ask n
favor. The request was one which he
could not grant, but after he had eX-
pressed his regret he took the cnrna-
tion from his huttonholc and pinned 1t
upon the lapel of one of the leaders.
Then he distributed the contents of the
vase among the rest, with the remark:
"plcase give these to your wives or
swecthcarts, with my compliments"

hind the names. Character is abstract.
You cannot define it by dates and rec
ords. We have words to describe sa
llent features of it, but at the best
they picture only vague generalities.
1t Is only the great masters of fiction
who are able to make us know man
we have never seen and who probably
never existed. There is still another
manner of getting acquainted with
men with whom we have not the op-
portunity of intimacy. This Is by In
ference. 1t is an indirect mode, and its
accuracy depends upon our own judg
ment
The traits of character which are
most apparent In William Mckinley,
the Republican standard bearer, are
manlness, dignity and gentleness. You
will admit tuat they are good traits.
They command your respect. But these
traits by no means make up the sum
of his character. They are simply the
ones which are most prominent. They
ure the ones which show on the sur
face. For the rest you must go much
deeper than the limits Of mere printers
ink will allow.

that Mr.. Mckinley resembles him very

may have thinned somewhat the hair
on his forehead and touched it with

about the mouth and eyes seem no
deeper. In spite of an eyentful admin
istration 1t is probable that the gain
of self confidence and mental poise has
more than made up for the strain Of
hard work and the anxiety about ex-
ternal things.
Men who finally reach a successful
period In their lives seem to age very
slowly. 1t appears to be this way with
Mr.. Mckinley. Some of his friends
even insist that he has grown younger

messed during the last years of her life,
was no less tender.
An instance of this is the fact that
every "a hours during those closing
years the president son communicated
in some way with his mother. While
he lived in Canton his daily call on her
was a part Of the routine of his life.
After he became president he did not
allow the days to become so crowded
with affairs that there was no time
left for his message to mother" So
every day there was sent to the dear
old lady in Canton White House en-
velope containing some word from
"My William at Washington" as she
always spoke of him.

the government would be involved to
the complete exposure of the crimes
| and the mcrcilcss punishment of all di-
rectly or indirectly concerned.
This tirmncSs Is one Of his dormant
traits. Its presence Is frequently un-
suspected until it comes to the surface.
Much has been said and written Of
the president as an orator. He is sure
ly notable in this regard. His short
speeches are models of rhetoric and de-
livered in n pleasing style, but his tai
ents as an auditor Are equally remark
able, and, surrounded by his cabinet,
he Is frequently called upon to show
them. When he listens to a speech, he
sits TRANQUILITY in the large chair gen
orally placed for his convenience, gaz-
Ing intcntly ut the speaker and usually
holding his silk hat In his hand. No
NERVOUSNESS marks his manner, except
now and then he will tap quietly upon
the arm of his chair with his glovcd
hand or close and unclosc it. He does
not miss single point the speaker
makes, looks grave or smiles, as the
case may be, and often, as though car
ried away by the enthusiasm of the
moment, leads the applause. He Is
truly sympathetic listener and, rs
one of the younger orators put it, ian
inspiration to the speaker"
While Mr.. Mckinley Is no such max
er Of epigrams as Tom Reed, his wit Is
by no means sluggish. His impromptu
remarks are often humorous enough to
do credit to a Chauncey Depew, but he
never goes out of his way to drag in n
Joke. Occasionally, however, he turns
| Off what story teller would call "a
good thing" Here Is one of them:
On the occasion of the presidents
trip to Alabama Governor Johnson, in
the course of public address, said,
THE south has no apologies to make
and nothing to take back"
The president was amply equal to
the occasion. He replied I'VE had
something to take back-we took you
back. We were glad to take you back,
and you were glad to have us take you
back"
In his private life Mr.. Mckinley
practices the virtue of democratic sim
plicity. He likes to live comfortably,
but his ideas of comfort are on a line
with those Of the ordinary well to do
citizen. His home In Canton Is an ex.
| ample Of this. 1t Is modest dwelling,
which does not even suggest a man
sion. Although 1t was the house In
which the president and Mrs. McKn-
ley first began housekeeping, Mr.. Nc
Kinley did not become the owner of 1t
until about year ago, when he pur-
| chased 1t for Sl4,5OO. 1t is the same
one occupied by him during the cam
| paign of 1896.
Mr.. Mckinley has led such a busy
life that he has never had time to ac-
| quire taste for any but simple recrea-
tions. His fondness for driving a good
horse Is perhaps the only prediction
Of this sort worthy of note. During
the early part of his administration he
was occasionally seen on horseback
| about Washington, but for the last two
years he contented himself with driv-
| ing.

well recognized and highly respected

of two men will be often coupled in

all over the country. They will wave

political orators before audiences
which will take this as n cue for let

applause.

Mckinley seems to have gained dig
nifty of carriage, mental poisc and gen

in some degree before, but now, as has
been said, they are distinctive traits.
They always bespeak the ripened char
ncter.
Perhaps his gentleness Is due to his
kindly domestic relations. AS is well
