rious. The rest of the party followed
in carriages. Mr.. and Mrs. Scott hat

their distinguished guests. Mrs. Nc
Kinley was again lifted out of the car

concerning Mrs. McKinley's condition
stated that there was nothing alarming
in her present indisposition, and that

at either Of these places but he thought
he could meet the cabinet at San Jose,
where great preparations have been
made to receive him and where the pro-
