WILLIAM MCKINLEY.

THE greatest statesman of the
country is dead. William Nc
Kinley, president of the United
States died. at Buffalo during
Friday night from the effects of
a bullet fired week before by
an assassin. While every Ameri-
can with the least spark of
patriotism in his veins bows his
head in shame and sorrow at the
disgrace put upon his country
by the horrid and dastardly re-
preventative of a band of an
archists who have for years
threatened the peace of the
nation, and whose very methods
are such that they are outlaws
to society, yet there are few but
who will think that with the
death of this great man that the
modest and wisest of all Ameri-
cans has gone from among us.
Partisan feeling has been
crushed, and the respectable re-
preventative and members of
every political party mourn the
death of one who as the occupant
of the highest positionin the gift
of the American people demon
strated that he was also one of
the noblest characters in his
personal and political life that
ever graced thenation. No presi-
dent or citizen within the mem
DRY of most Americans has been
more universally beloVed than
the dead president. Lincoln
lived in a time of internal strife
and dissension, and while he was
the adored idol of a portiono of the
country, he was most thoroughly
hated by many of his country
men. With William Mckinley it
was different. There have been
no internal dissentions, except
such as have resulted from
spirited political strifes, wherein
men have disagreed only as to
the best form of procedure in
dealing with important questions
that have confronted US. The
master hand of Mckinley has
guided the destiny of the nation

THE ST. Paul Dispatch and a
: few other newspapers are dis
g playing a good deal of grand
= motherishness" in deploring that
the Buffalo police should have put
the red-handed assassin of the
president through the sweat
box. "Leniency" and "human-
ity" are the cry that they raise.
There has already been too much
ssleniency" and humanity dis
played towards these enemies of
our country, and they should be
gone after with pitchforks. Such
blood thirsty devils as Herr Most,
7%Emma Goldman, and a. host of
tothers should be given the most
rigid persecution possible under
the laws. A few anarchistic
methods applied to these enemies
of the country might be con-
yincing argument to them that
their policy is an unhealthy one.

which will doubtless result in
wedding the red devils out.

REHEARsALs NOW BEING HELD.
The Pretty Cantata is Under the Direction of
M. E. Robinson, of Chicago, Who is
Assisted by Sixty Persons of the
Local Talent

The rehearsals for the cantata
isOueen Esther" are being held
almost nightly, and the production
will be rendered next Tuesday and
Wednesday evenings at the Opera
House. Mr.. Nj. E. Robinson of Chi
cago, is the director and has ar
ranged the cast, which is made up Of
about sixty persons, of the city.
The entertainments are to be given
for the benefit of the Washburn
Hospital We unlerttand that it is
the usual custom of the citizens to
arrange benefit entertainment for
every new hospital, but this was not
done by the Washburn people, so DR..
Hicks has taken advantage of the
opportunity to secure the services
of Mr.. Robinson, for the sacred
cantata, and the latter has been very
busily engaged in preparing every
thing for the productions which will
be made next week. About sixty
persons will appear in song and Gus
tune, and the event promises to be
one that will be greatly enjoyed by
all Missionaries. The story of the
cantata is founded on the book of
Esther, and may be briefly outlined
as follows:
Esther, beautiful orphan, has
been adopted by Mordecai. BY rea-
son of her marvellous beauty and
gifted attachments, King Ahasverus,
after he had put aside his self-willed
and obstinate wife, Vashti, selected
Esther as his queen. Hannah, the
kings chief adviser and favorite,
having become jealous and angry
toward Mordecai because the latter
refused to render him subservient
homage, to be revenged obtained a
decree authorizing the destruction
of all Jews within the confines of the
Persian realm. Hannah did not
know that Queen Esther was Nor
decais adopted daughter, and this
fact occasioned his downfall. for
when Mordecai discovered the fact
he informed the queen of the con-
spiracy against him and her people,
and she, at the peril of her own life,
by going into the kings presence,
made personal intercession and had
the decree revoked. When the plot
was revealed the king ordered
Hannah to be HANGED on the gallows
which the latter had. prepared for
Mordecai.

a manner that even those who dis.
agreed most with him have been
compelled to respect his firmness
and his Judgment. He was a
kindly, Christian man, and as
the American people have
watched his advancement and his
progress those of all parties and
creeds have learned to love and
reverence him. He has been one
of the greatest characters in the
history Of the country, that has
ever been produced. 1t is but
natural that the dead should be
eulogized, but such makes no diff
ference with thepresent lamented
president. In his lifetime, be-
fore the fell hand of the assassin
had been raised against him,
William Mckinley was as much
loved, respected and honored, as
his memory is now. His do
nestle life has for years been one
of devotion and love, while as a
public official he has been always
kind, gentle and just. His sense
of duty was great, and that duty
was never left unperformed.
When on that fatal day he fell be-
fore the admiring thousands at
the Temple of Music on the Pan
American grounds, his first
| thought was of his wife, then he
expressed himself in the hope
that the dastardly assassin would
not be harmed. The third utter
ance was the hope that he would
not be the means of injuring the
exposition. And as he lay on the
sick bed the great sense of JUS
tice, and forgiving nature never
questioned once who had been the
assassin. He died without even
knowing the name of the hated
Czolgocz, and while the rest of
the world was ringing with cries
for vengeance the great and good
president wished only that he
would have mercy. He was
hopeful that he would win the
battle, but in the last hour of
consciousness he seemed to feel
that the end was approaching,
and then he said: Goods will.
not ours, be done" The
nobleness of such a character
could there be anything more
loveable. Not shadow of re-
sentiment did he show as his
| life lay in doubt, and as he passed
away. All along there was the
most tender solicitation for the
kwife for whom he had cared
through years of sickness. His
tory will very correctly record
the administration of William
Mckinley as one Of the brightest
and most brilliant since the or
ganization of the republic, and to
him, the great man who died
without an enemy, will there be
only justice done when he is
pictured as one of the greatest
men that has ever lived upon the
face of the earth. Europe may
have her idols and her states
men, but a grateful and appreci-
ative people will ever hold in the
tenderest memory the recollec-
ton of the greatest man of mod
orn times, whose death Is
mourned throughout the world
as one of the greatest calamnities
of the century. That citizen
is not entitled to be called patriot
who cannot drop tear in sorrow
for the lamented and beloved
president, the greatest man of
modern times.

CARE OF THE HANDS.
To Make Red, Wrinkled Members
Plump and Smooth Requires
Lots of Hard Work.

To whiten red, wrinkled hands and
make them plumpand smooth is work
of time. When young women or those
of 35 complain of such hands the cir
cula ton is the fault and must be stim-
ulated. Very hot baths for the entire
body are the best treatment not only
for reddish hands, but for red noses
and swollen lips. Yet hot water is
! such difficult luxury to obtain even
In smart houses that it is always rec
commended with uncertainty, like
voyage to the Azores or winter in
Bermuda. Between the economics OF
the kitchen fire and the impossibilities
of heating water by electric light OF
by fancy gas stoves, we will have to
depend upon public baths for cleans
ing and taking cold on the way home,
as most people do who use them.
Friction, however, is matter of a
coarse towel and brisk, dry rubbing.
Gymnastics and health movements
combine with the towel exercise, for
few manuals bring muscles into play
in such variety of ways as the daily
rub down with a big brown length OF
Turkish toweling. Taken by the ends
and sawed across the shoulders, up
and down the arms, trunk and legs,
rubbing lightly and swiftly until the
skin is all aglow, the towel rubs away
the dead particles and brings the
blood into play. The feet should have
special friction to keep them warm.
Women who have cold feet in girl
hood are apt to have red, thin hands
and faces later in life. Special treat
ment for the hands requires daily ap-
plication. Soak them at night in a
basin of hot soapsuds with a spoonful
of sweet oil stirred in. Then the oily
water is rubbed off, and the back of
each hand gently and swiftly rubbed
with a good pomade, working it into
the knuckles. Next open and shut the
hands so to 100 times, counting the
motions once by the clock and timing
them by it afterward instead of count
ing. The hands begin to improve un-
der the friction very soon. Finally, on
going to bed, rub the hands generous
ly with good pomade, putting plenty
on the finger tips, if the nails are brit
tie. or draw on easy-ftting gloves.
Thick joints and knobby knuckles re-
quire treatment which only skilled
specialist knows how to apply-Chi-
cago American.
