custom Of Elkdom in honoring the dead.
AS betting the occasion, the hall was

twined with the colors of the order
and around the antlered heads of the
majestic elIs that hung from the walls
above the audience Over the platform

this respect.

CHILDS IS ELOQUENT.
"It is most fitting that Elkdom should
gather about its altar tonight and do
honor to a noble man. In paying tribute
to the memory of our lanIented president
we revere and inculcate in our hearts

the death and last words of President
Mckinley will never fade. They will
grow and inspire others. President Nc
Kinley's public life was a joy to all. 1t
was the kind that speaks from a lofty
ideal. Men might differ with him in
questions of state and in debate, but no
man who knew him doubted the sincerity
of his motives or was not impressed with
the charm of his manners. He was SIM
cere whether at the bar or at the head
of the nation, and a loving people eS-
teemed him for that same sincerity. It
might be said that he had that honor
and charity that repels stain. His life
has a significance for the living. 1t

SPOKE AT AUDITORIUM.
From this very platform, few years
ago. the president stood and addressed
himself to a Grand Army post, right
there (pointing to body of Grand Army
men, and he told you about that color
bearer from Connecticut to whom his
colonel entrusted the new colors, saying:
Bring back those colorS or report the
reason Why!' And the boy-because ne
was one of the boys, only eighteen years
of age-replied: Colonel, l will bring
those colors back or will report to God
the reason why (Applause.) And the
next day he went into battle. and when
they found him later, cold and lifeless,
the flag that he loved was wrapped
around him and he had reported to God
the reason why. Oh the tenderness and
love of William Mckinley! And then he
closed with these words:
SO nigh to grandeur is our dust,
So near is God to man,
When duty whispers, Lo, thou must'

The Gar
Is In Imminent Danger
Of an Assassin
SEVERAL ATTEMPTS
Have Already Been Made ON
His Life

New York, March 2l.-The Sun
has the following cable dispatch from
Berlin:
Stories are current OF recent at.
tempts upon the Cars life in con.
nection with widespread revolution
airy movement, Of which the students
riots in st. Petersburg and sewhere
are said to form part.
The Tageblatt' st. Petersburg cor.
respondent says he has learned from
an unquestionable source of two sep
arate conspiraces to assassinate his
majesty.
The first attempt vas planned to be
made on the occasion Of the jubilee
ball of the naval cadet corps, which
the Car had promised to attend. His
majesty was ready to start and was
awaiting his carriage, when Gov. Gen.
KEELING arrived at the palace and in
formed him that be must not 20, sew
eral Suspici 'uS persons belonging to
the revolutionary party having been
arrested at the Nicolai bridge with
arms and forged passports. He in
formed his majesty that the prisoners
were probably emissaries Of the Cen
tral NihiIiSt committee at Zurich.
The visit was accordingly abandoned.
The second affair occurred in the
middle of January, when the Car, ac-
companled by his mother, visited the
ceramic exhibition. When entering
one Of the rooms the members of the
committee who were escorting the
imperial party suddenly noticed an
unkno wn man hurriedly approaching
the Gar. As the public had been ex
cluded and those authorized to attent
had been carefully selected, the pres
ence of the stanger excited suspicion.
Several Of the Cars party hastenet
to meet him to lead him away. There
upon the man suSpiciously thrust hi
hand in a pocket He was instantl,
seized. When he was searched
bomb was found in his pocket.
He has since disappeared from pub
lie sight, and the correspondent adds
it will probably be- long time befor
any one learns of bis whereabouts,
