PREACHING M'kINLEY LIKED.

Rev F M. Bristol in the Congregational
 ist
 MT. Mckinley greatly enjoyed gospel preaching and had a warm place in his heart for the minister of Christ. No man was a more attentive, apprecfative and helpful listener than he. Never did he take his keen, but kindly eye from the preacher, but followed him closely from beginning to end. he honored him with an attention worthy of his sacred theme. He did not enjoy sensational preaching, and. although he appreciated a patrtotic discourse in It's place and season. he had too good taste and too profound reverence for the sacred functions of the pulpit to be edified by political preaching. Some people would have called him old-fashion in his religious notions. I have heard him say, with a look of earnestness. q like to hear the minister preach the plain. simple gospel-Christ and him crucified."

Columbia. Shamrock II.

A notable difference in the two boats, which is not fully and clearly shown in these measurements, con. sists in the greater depth and swell of the central portion of the Shamrock She will displace and move more water, and for this reason it is thought the Columbia will sail the faster in light winds. In a drifting match the Columbia will be, it is thought, the better boat, but in stiff breeze there may be another story to tell.
 The sail area of the Shamrock is very great. and on account of it "a time allowance must be conceded to the Columbia of about two minutes. Such an allowance in drifting match will defeat the Shamrock.
 The first race for the Cup takes place on Thursday next, and the in- terest in the race rises as the day ap- proaches. Thus far the odds in the betting are in favor of the Columbia, and the experts begin to think that, while Shamrock is not a mean com. petitor, yet the chances are with the Columbia. All who think this way ore. fer very light airs or race days, for they fear the effects of the Shamrocks enormous sails.

BUT ONE Ex.PREsIDENT.
from the Boston Herald.


 The presence of ex-President Cleve- land at Washington to attend the Me Kinley obsequies is a reminder that there is still but one living President of the United States. There Is a fatality in the death of so many of the men who have occupied that office. Arthur survived his holding 1t but a short time. and the same was true of Johnson. President Hayes did not reach a great age, and the prema- ture death of President Harrison is fresh in mind as a national calamity. Assas- sins deprived the nation of Presidents Garfield and Mckinley in the prime of life, but disease has also borne hard upon our Presidents. The unaccustomed life to which the duties of their office brought them probably killed the first President Harrison and President Taylor, but it is doubtful if the anxieties attending 1t were responsible for the deaths of any of the Presidents, even remotely. It is some thing that has constantly invited remark of recent years, however. that so few men are left who have held the office.

There are no tricks In plain and simple faith.
 Julius Caesar.
New York City Politics.

Seth Low. who ran against Van Wyck and Tracy four years ago, and readily beaten, is to be the candidate of the anti-Tammany coalition this fall He was born "to the purple; is a man of inherited wealth, the presi- dent of the Columbia University. Four years ago he boiled 151,540 votes, while Van Wyck, Tammanys candi- date, boiled 23S,977 votes. General Tracy, the Republican candidate four years ago, received 101,s73 votes. By combining about twenty diverse organ fzattons, 1t is now hoped that an anti Tammany majority can be had. But it cannot be. Seth Low has no quail ties and no record that appeal to the mess of voters. He belongs to the inner circle, an exclusive of exclusives. That he can attract the voters repre- sented by twenty differing organiza- tions, some differing radically, is very Improbable. He is not a popular leader. He lacks magnetism. He will poll "the 400" but he will not be able to rally to his standard the unwashed, or even the man of average standing.
 The Tammany candidate may be, 1t Iis said, Lieutenant Lewis Nixon, who designed the Oregon and the Indiana, and perhaps dozen more fine ships. Other names are under consideration, including Oliver H. P. Belmont, George B. Mcclellan. Edward NJ. Shepherd, John whalen, and President Clausen of the Park board-aH good Democrats --.sssaa ssaa good citizens, any one of whom can defe.A Seth Low before the peo pie. The task is really not difficult one, and 1t would not be so considered if the election did not have a bearing upon the control of the State and tht Presidential canvass of 1904.

per cent. and manufactures 29 per cent. The exports of manpfactures have not been well maintained, the reduction being about sS2.0OO,0Oo in the year. About half of the decrease is due to the lessened demand for cop per and copper products in the cleo trical world. The demand has been abnormal. and the fall to normality shows in our tables of exports. The exports of iron and steel are less also. but this is in part due to the annexa- tion of Porto Rico and Hawaii. This accounts for $7,O00,oOo of the loss. The rest of the loss IS readily accounted for in the change in prices and in various other ways, none of which seriously touch her supremacy in manufaetur- ing.
 The South furnishes a handsome part of the exports in the forms of cotton and cotton goods, and a great deal of grain and provisions is going out through Southern ports. The shipments of breadstuffs and meats do not spring from Southern soil, but even their shipment from Southern ports is beneficial to this section in various ways. It will lead to an immense trade with South America, and later on when the Nicaragua canal is built with the vast populations of the Pa eific. Between what the South grows and makes and what it handles at its ports, the South is gaining a high po- sition in the export lists. New Or leans, Galveston, Newport News. Bal timore and Savannah are becoming great ports.

Head. Kindly Liaht. l"

Bishop Potter and all others who speak of Bishop Newman are speak ing at random, away from their books, for John Henry Newman was never a bishop, and probably never desired to be one. He was leader in the strict est sense of the word, an ascetic, a student ever. There was none of the pastor in his makeup. He did not become a priest of the Catholic Church until 1s45, and in 1890 he was made cardinal. He was never bishop. He never, like St. Paul, had the care of many churches on his mind. He was a leader in the famous Oxford move ment in the established church, and afterwards he made his home in brotherhood of ascetics, from which he wrote and from which he conducted many famous controversies, one of which led to lawsuit, and his defense in that case cost him over s50,OO0.
 But all this is neither here nor there. In the year 1883, while travel ing on the continent, he fell i'll from malarial fever, and in the early sum- mer of that year he left Falmouth on an orange boat bound for Marseilles. On that boat he wrote the famous poem, Lead, Kindly Light, Lead4Thou Me On." The boat-a sailing tub it would be now-had been becalmed in the Straits of Bonifacio week, the poet was homesicK and seasick. He had not fully recovered from the at- tack of malarial fever, and the trip was undertaken in the hope of further recuperation. At the time John Henry Newman was not in good standing with any church. The Established Church was torn and rent by the views that he and his associates presented in re- lation to the real presence, apostolic succession, and absolution, and the public feeling against them was very bitter. In 1845 he went over to the Catholic Church, becoming a member of the priesthood. In 1883, when the poem was written, he may have been High Church Episcopalian, but he was undoubtedly drifting, quite care less of church connections or obliga- | tions

 Mystery 01 Dssbosstaou 0f fBooth's Body

Capt. E. w. Hilliard of Metropolis, H., claims to have positive knowledge of the final disposition of the body of John Wilkes Booth, the assassin of President Lincoln
 He was shown a story published in a recent issue of St. Louis paper which stated that Booths body had been turned over to his relatives in that city and in tered in the Booth burial lot in the Greenmount cemetery. At this MT. Hill lard smiled and remarked that the writer was evidently not acquainted with the facts. He then gave the following ac-
 count of the final disposition of the body
 One night during the early part of
 May, 1865. only a few weeks after the as-
 sassination of President Lincoln, I, with
 four other privates of Sheridan's army,
 was ordered to report for duty at the old capitol prison at Washington. Sheridan's s
 Army and the Army of the Potomac were
 stationed at Washington at that time on provost duty and we were members of the former.
 "We reported to corporal of detail and with him reported to a military surgeon at the prison. It was a dark night, and, to the best of my recollection, about mid-
 night. We were all strangers to each other. but on the way I learned that two were from Company I, Forty-third Ohio, and two from Company K. I belonged to Company B of the same regiment The corporaPs identity did not learn.
 At the prison the surgeon commanded us to keep the incidents of the night a q that stone slab had been removed from
 the floor. Under that in an excavation. lay the body of John Wilkes Booth, the assassin. It was wrapped in tarpaulin
 and was smelling from decomposition. We were ordered to lift the body out and lay it on stretcher It was bad job and we complained that 1t was not in a
 coffin. The surgeon unwrapped the head and identified the body. I remember dis
 tinctly that on one side of the head and face the hair was burned off and the flesh scorched. This had been done when he
 was captured in the burning barn and
 shot to death by Boston Corbstt
