GREW UP FROM EPIGRAMs.
How President Mckinley Started
His Great Buffalo Speech.


From the New York World.
Washington, Sept. 23.-President Nc
Kiniey's great speech at Buffalo grew
from three phrases thought out by him
one evening in Canton while smoking
his after-dinner cigar. This was three
weeks before he was to leave Canton
for Buffalo on the visit which terminal
ed with his death.
The President and Secretary Cortel-
you were sitting together in the Pres
idents office in his house. 1t was Z
o'clock and the lights had not yet been
lighted. The President sat quietly
smoking, looking at the ceiling and
watching the smoke curl upward. Mr..
Cortelyou sat across the desk from
him, glancing over some papers. Meth
er had said a word for ten minutes
when suddenly the President took his
cigar from his lips and said, apropos
of nothing at all apparently:
'Expositions are the timekeepers of
progress
Mr.. Cortelyou made note of the cpl
gram on a bit of paper, but said Moth
ing. The President smoked a few min
utes and then said:
"Amity is better than animosity."
Mr.. Cortelyou made another note. Mr..
Mckinley lapsed back into his thought
full mood. He puffed at his cigar for n
time and then again broke the silence:
Reciprocity is better than retalia-
tion."
The President finished his cigar,
walked over and looked out of the
window, returned and sat down at the
desk again and then took up routine
business with the secretary. There was
not word between the President and
his secretary about the three phrases,
but after the work was finished and
the President had gone in to see If
Mrs. Mckinley were comfortable, Mr..
Cortelyou went upstairs and had one
of the stenographers typewrite the
three phrases, one at the top of the pa
per, one in the middle and one at the
bottom. Next morning, before break
fast, Mr.. Cortelyou took the sheet of
paper and put it on top of everything
else on the Presidents desk. When Mr..
Mckinley came in he picked up the pa
per, read over the epigrams and then,
turning to Mr.. Cortelyou, said with a
smile:
1--WE have begun the Buffalo speech,
1 see"
The President expanded the three
ideas into the Buffalo speech. He did
not use "Amity is better than animos-
ity' or Reciprocity is better than re-
taliation" in those exact words, but
that notable epigram "Expositions are
the time-keepers of progress" went
safely through all the revisions and
attracted immediate attention in his
speech.
The President dictated Little of the
speech. He wrote 1t out by para
graphs taking fully two weeks to do it.
He used a pad on his knee on the
porch, and also wrote some of 1t while
he was in Mrs. McKinley's room. When
he had it to his liking he dictated IT
from his rought draft. Then he went
over it two or three times and polish
ed it until 1t became the perfect piece
of composition 1t was when he deliv-

Those Which Foreigners Coming to
America Learn TO Use First.
From the New York Mail and Express.
What are the most expressive phrases
in colloquial English? OF the dozens
that slip off English speaking tongues
in the course of a day some must be
better suited for their purpose and
more characteristic of the race that
originated them than others. When
foreigners come to this country they
catch certain expressions almost inn
mediately, and long before they can
attempt to speak the language have
made them part of their vocabulary. II
would seem that these phrases must
be the most expressive in English and
that they are peculiar to the language,
and FILL long felt want" since for
eigners seize so eagerly upon them.

using their native speech, but closing
their orders with the magic Hurry

the nation is the phrase! II is not to
be wondered at that the newcomers
from the slow moving Old World find
that they have brought over nothing
to equal It,
"All right" rivals Hurry up" not
because foreign tongues lack similar
expressions, but because there is jolly

the same character Then, too, call

the popularity of the first two is IT'S

The beard is heavier on the left side

singular coincidence that the side

the conjecture is hazarded by this man
that the mask had got next to a brok-

erent suggestion, however, is secuted
generally. Yet it is true that the at
nosphere of bucolic New Jersey has
long been celebrated for whisker-pro-

Only one more fact remains to be
told of this extraordinary happening.
Those who have seen the beard on the
mask express themselves as satisfied
that the hairs could not have been

growth from the substance Of ii. And

should Shamrock Get the Cup.
From the New York Mail and Express.
One of the most active members of
the New York Yacht Club said last
evening in Newport that in the event
of Sir Thomas Upton succeeding in
lifting the Americas Cup, which, how
ever, he considered improbable, the
homely, old trophy would not, in his
opinion, remain abroad more than one
year. He was asked how 1t could be
brought back, and he replied that the
invincible Yankee schooner would do
the trick.
You see," said he, in way of ex-
PLANTATION, when the, Miranda, by
means of her great speed destroyed
schooner racing in English waters and
she was imported to this side, Ameri-
can designers and builders took the
schooner craze, with the result that
we are to-day superior to any country
in the world in schooner yacht models,
as well as in the big 90-footers. If
Upton were to win this time, a chal-
lenge for a schooner race would, no
doubt, be Immediately issued. A. Cary
Smith would in all probability draw up
the plans, and the Harlan and Hol-
lingsworth Company construct her of
steel or some other metal. The German
Emperor is now having a crack
schooner yacht built by that combina-
ton of designer and builders. The
Kaiser Wilhelm knows where to find
the fastest double sticker in the world.
This is the place"
CIings to Single Sucker.
This expression of opinion was con-
veyed to several yatchsmen, and none
of them was in any mood to indorse
the idea 1T is all nonsense to suppose
that schooner would be sent abroad
to reclaim the cup" said r. I. Adams.
why should IL be done? We have
repeatedly shown our prowess in the
single stick line, and IL Upton were
TO beat us IL would behoove us to
challenge with the same type of yacht
with which he won. Just to show him
that we are obstinate and can beat
him at his own game. Next year the
Constitution will be at her best, and
If Upton were to beat the Columbia,
which is only a great big guess, mind

sity be selected to go over and bring

Dry SPELLS Effect on state Institu-
tons Funds.

Officers of the various institutions Of
this State are doing some unusually close
fnanciering just now" remarked a State
official yesterday. Ito make their appro-
priatiOns for maintenance provide for the
wards in their care and keeping. The pro-
longed drought has sent the prices of all
articles of food soaring skyward and at
the same time the amount of money with
which provisions are TO be purchased re-
mains fixed. You see, the Legislature at
the time it made the appropriations for
maintaining the State institutions, had
every reason to believe the crops of all
cereals and vegetables would be OF great
size this year and it accordingly did not
take into account the possibility Of a
drought. When the Legislature was in ses-
sion conditions pointed to anything except
a prolonged dry spell. But the unexpected
has happened, and since the new order of
State financiering forbids the contracting
of a deficit, the managers of the different
Institutions will have to strain and tug
TO make the appropriations fit their needs.
81 do not anticipate that the inmates
of the various institutions will be starved,
but / do look for a cutting down in their
rations. Possibly they will lave TO eat
more soup and drink more milk and coffee
until the new appropriation becomes avail

countered. since the appropriation is the

The Purdue University department OF ag-
r%iculture will have a working dairy at the
state fair, during the week of Sept. 16.
which will be on a larger scale than hat
of last year. A force of instructors and
students from Lafayette gave practical in
struction in butter making. The best meth
DDS of handling milk and making butter
will be demonstrated, and by the time a Wis
itor at the exhibit hears all the students
will ave to tell he will be able to choose
good butter from bad when buying it in the
market. The dairy will be equipped with
separators, churns, butter workers and
prints and other modern contrivances nee
essary to good butter making. The general
plan is to carry on the work in a simple,
practical manner, yet with the most re-
cent methods that have been brought into
use. There Will be ample accommodations
about the dairy building for visitors. This
building will be headquarters of the State
Dairy Association during the week.
In addition to the butter makers from
Purdue University the dairy building will
contain many exhibits of gold-colored but

ment in the building inclosed in glass. and
ice will be placed in its refrigeratorS a
week before the fair opens. There will be
four classes for butter makers, four prizes
in each class, ranging from $50 TO a dollar.
The best exhibit of print or
butter work will receive an award of $40.
