FROM M'KINLEY PORCH
Gov. Roosevelt VIII Talk to
Canton People Oct. IS.

Canton, O., Oct. 4.-President McKfn-
ley is making the most of the delightful
Indian summer weather.
He goes out driving every day with
Mrs. Mckinley, usually in the morning
and again in the afternoon. They drive
about the city and suburbs and often
out on the country roads. Some times
them, and again some old friend or
neighbor is telephoned to be ready to
join them.
Beside the drives the president in the
past few days has been doing a great
deal of walking. his favorite exercise
He walks out along the streets abutting
his home and occasionally down town.
Wherever he goes he meets old time
friends and greets them in the demo-
cratic fashion.
No date has been fixed for a return to
Washington Governor Roosevelt is
coming to Canton on the morning of
October IS for 80 minute stay. In that
time he will make a speech from the
famous Mckinley porch, while his train
is being transferred from one railroad to
another 1t is probable that the preSi-
dent will introduce him. Delegations
will be here from other towns in the
county.
NH. DeYoung, of San Francisco, presi-
dent of the United States commissioners
to the Paris exposition, stopped over in
Canton yesterday. He came to make a
formal report to the president and to
arrange for reception to the whole
board This reception will be held in
Washington soon after election.
Mr.. DeYoung left during the after
noon for his home in San Francisco
where he will take part In the campaign
He expressed himself as heartily in ia
vOr of not only retaining the Philippines

with Spain, but of making them self
governing territories as rapidly as pos
sible, with free interchange of products

LOOKING FOR A SCULPTOR.
Edward Wilder VIII Investigate Fol-
Proposed Holiday Monument.

The executive committee of the Holt
day Monument association has not been
idle but has entered into correspondence
with P. p. Bringhurst of st. Louis and
Loredo Taft of Chicago, two noted
sculptors, in regard to the proposed
Holiday monument.
Mr. Edward Wilder will be in Chicago
Monday when he will devote some time
to the matter. He will look up the
standing and work of a number of ar
lists and report to the committee when
he returns.
The committee feels that it would not
be wise to go into this thing without
first inspecting the work of more than
one sculptor. The very best to be OBJ
tanned is what is wanted without hav-
ing TO pay an eXorbitant price for it.

PRESIDING ELDER
LED THE SERVICES
Rev. Charles Reuss Conducted the
Communion Yesterday Morning
at German M. E. Church.

Rev Charles Reuss, of Syracuse. N.
T., presiding elder of what Is known
as the Philadelphia district of the
German Methodist Episcopal church
circuit, yesterday morning conducted
communion services at the German
Methodist Episcopal church. This dis
trict takes TN Pennsylvania. New Jer-
sey, Delaware and part of New Yor.S,
aud Rev. Reuss has officiated as pre-
siding elder for the last four years.
In his sermon yesterday morning he
spoke from Luke xXiii: 39-43, 1.-THE
three crosses."'H cloQuently described
the heart-rending scenes on Calvary.
the three great crosses with suffer-
ing figure pinned to each. I'm the
middle" said he, "is the gentle SUI
fering form and the kingly. noble
head with it's sorrowful look, OF the
martyred Savior. He casts glances Of
mingled pain and regret at the throng,
While on either side Of him the form
of a degraded man.
1.-THE one. hardened and debased to
the last. continues to the end to curse
and blaspheme, to even rcvilc his fell
low-sufferer. the gentle Christ. There
is no hope of salvation III his small,
glittering eyes. no thought oe a future
life in his sin -cased soul. Wicked
throughout life. the life ebbs away,
leaving a wretched spirit to meet it's
Creator.
"On the other cross Is the figure uf
the repentant criminal. Not so black
in vice was he that the shafts OF
truth and pity could not penetrate the
exterior and enter to his heart. Even
at the last he saw the error of his
ways and his heart turning to the true
God. 10! he was saved.
"My friends. Christ's cross divides
mankind into two classes. Everywhere
may be found those persons who like
the wicked malefactor. revilc ana
and seal their ears to the benign coun-
sci of the Gospel.
But the proper position we should
take towards Christ is outlined beau
tifully in the conduct of the repentant.
dying sinner on the cross. His hands
and feet lacerated by the cruel steel,
and every moment feeling his life
blood flow from his veins. yet he felt
that it was not too late to endeavor
to eXpatiate his i'll doings, and in thar
supreme moment felt repentance. Il
is never too late to atone for past sins.
No sinner can be sunk so deep in
crime that by true repentance he can
not again. come into the fold. From
the repentant sinner we can learn that
the gates of paradise are always ready
to open to him who comes with a
humble and penitent spirit"
During the morning and evening re-
Vival services We're conducted. what
Must ] DO to BE Saved was the
theme upon which the evening services
We're based, and of very solemn and
enthusiastic nature they We're. Testi-
mony was offered by several members
of the congregation.
