a cowardly assassin. Other rulers
have met like fate. but it is
doubtful if in the history of the
civilized world similar catastro.
phe was ever followed by such an
universal, overwhelming out pour
ing of sympathy, as we have wit
messed since he passed away. Is it
because he approached so near our
ideal of a perfect man? This is
doubtful, for no one would assert
that if he had never entered official
life his death would still be mourn
ed across the continents and be-
vond oceans. Yet neither can we
believe that if he had remained in
private life, he would have been
less a model citizen, less devot-
ed husband, less man, God fear
ing and God-serving. What then
has caused this marvellous sea of
sympathy whose pillows have
reached the uttermost shores of
civization, and left an impress on
the hearts of his fellow citizens
that can never be effaced? His
end is mourned not be-
cause he was a Christian man, not
because he was our Chief Execu-
tive, but because he was both.
AS Mckinley the private citizen,
he represented no one but himself,
as Mckinley our duly elected lead

TEXT OF DIR. GLADMON'S AID
DRESS AT THE KNIGHTS OF
PYTHIAS MEMORIAL SER
VICE.
Southern Pines Lodge, No. 10S
Knights Of Pythias, held last Fri
day evening memorial service to
express their appreciation of the
services to the order and to the
nation of Sir and Brother Knight
William Mckinley, the martyred
and mourned for late President Of
the United States, who was, dur
ing his life, an enthusiastic and
active Knight of Pythias, and a
Past Grand Chancellor of the state
Of Ohio.
DR.. Edwin Gladmon, P. O., was
the orator Of the evening. Chancel-
Tor Commander Allan Hall pre-
sided and brief remarks were
made by Capt, A. M. Clarke, Will
j. Irwin and others. The service
was only one of the many hun
dreds held by the numerous lodges
throughout the United States dur
ing the same week, to pay tribute
to the worthiness of a devoted and
earnest member Of the order. Dr.
Gladmon, in addition to eulogiz-
ing Mr.. Mckinley as man and a
statesman, spoke particularly of
his Pythianism In the course of
a most touching and eloquent adj
dresses, he said in part:
"Chancellor Commander, Broth
ers and Friends: We are gathered
here this evening in pursuance of
our solemn duty as Pythians, to
pay our last tribute of respect to
deceased brother. Since Rath-
bone formulated our beautiful
ritual wherein are taught symbol
ically Friendship, Charity and Be-
nevolence, many thousands of
Pythians have crossed the river to
the unseen shore. Men high in
the world of letters. men crowned
with the honors Of high official po-
sition, men eminent in every walk
of life. But not in Pythian histo-
nv alone, but the worlds records
may be searched in vain to paral
lei the pathetic death of the broth
er to whose memory we now offer
our tribute of love and reverence.
"Brother William Mckinley oc
cupied the most exalted position
in the world. 1t was the highest
office in the gift Of the worlds
