EXCITED THE DOGS.


Chicago, May "A photographer
brought the dog show, now being
held under the auspices of the Mas
coutah Kennel club, to an abrupt
close last night. He took flash
light picture of the show, where 1000
dogs are chained up, the aisles be-
tween the kennels being damned
with sightseers. Ten pounds of flash
light powder were used and the fash
and fumes set every dog in the place
frantic with excitement. They made
every noise Of which practically in
sane dog is capable, and many of
them tugged wildly at their chains in
the attempt to get at the crowd. The
dogs were so wild that 1t produced
much excitement among the people
and there was a rush for the doors.
A number of women tainted, but NO
person was injured. The dogs con-
tinued in such an excited condition
that 1; was found necessary to close
the doors for the night.

THE BUFFALO SHOW.
Pan. American Exposition Opened
Its Gates Yesterday.
PIGEONS BEAR GREETING 10 JAIL.
william Hamlin Permitted to Purchase
the First Ticket for o5,O0O-A Beau.
tiful Electrical Display
ut Night,

Buffalo, N. Y, May 2.-The gates Of
the Pan-American exposition were
thrown open yesterday morning. The
attendance in the morning was small,
owing to the weather conditions,
which kept many persons away from
nearby towns. Later in the day,
when the sun broke through the gray
clouds, the crowd began to assume
the proportions of an exposition
throng, and last night thousands
passed through the turnstiles. The
gates were opened without ceremony,
the opening day ceremonies having
been postponed until the Goth, when
they will be combined with dedica-
ton day exercises.
At eight O'Clock number of
pigeons were released. Thirty-fve
went to Oil City, rs to Cleveland and
five each to Toledo and Pittsburg.
Attached to their legs was this mes
sage: "To the people of all the Amer
icas: This message OF greeting, borne
to you by carrier pigeons, announces
the opening of the Pan-American ex-
position and extends to every one an
invitation to participate in the pleas
ure and benefits of this six months
festival"
AT $40 o'clock the turnstiles
clicked and the first of the millions
of people who will visit the beauti-
full rainbow city during the six
months of its existence passed into
the grounds to view and study the
products Of American ingenuity and
scientific research and the resources
Of the two continents of the western
hemisphere which fill the magnificent
buildings, beautiful in their archi.
tectural designs, harmonious in their
coloring and interior decoration.
William Hamlin was permitted by
agreement to purchase the first tick
ct, he having offered some time ago to
pay $1,000 for the privilege. AT noon
the government building was thrown
open and Gen. Brigham, chairman Of
the government board, made an ad-
dress. At two o'clock salute of As
aerial bombs was fired and simulta-
neously hundreds of flags were raised
on the buildings and grounds.
A beautiful electrical display at
night was the eliminating event of
the opening yesterday.

M'LAURIN TAKEN TO TASK.
". j. Bryan Criticises the South Carolina
Senator for His Alleged Pollti-
cal FlOpt

Lincoln, Neb., May 3.--In state
inent made yesterday W. J. Bryan
takes Senator McLaurin, Of South
Carolina, to task for what he declares
is his political flop. At the same
time Mr.. Bryan admits Senator Nc
Laurin's action marks the beginning
of movement in the south which
will have an influence upon the poll
tics of the nation. He says: ut is
not likely that Mr.. McLaurin will be
the leader Of the movement because
he is handicapped by the fact that he
is using his official position to mis-
represent the views and interests of
his constituents, but some leader will
arise to give direction and force to
the aristocratic and plutocratic ele-
ment for which Mr.. McLaurin speaks.
There is such an element in every
community, and now that the race
question no longer unifes the white
people Of the southern states it will
doubtless manifest itself. Senator
Tillman has already taken up the
gauge of battle thrown down by Sem
ator McLaurin and will doubtless be
able to marshal considerable ma
jority in that state, but the same in
fuences are at work in other states
where there is greater danger Of
their success.
"The democratic sentiment is
strong enough to resist and overcome
the McLaurin movement, but those
who believe that the man Is more
important than the dollar will have
to bestir themselves"

4 Reception Given to tho Minister to
China by Des Moines-The Boxer
Movement.

Des Moines, Ia, May Minister
Conger was formally welcomed to
Des Moines at a public meeting held
in the Auditorium yesterday after.
noon. The reception was rendered by
the two Grand Army posts, the city
government, citizens generally and
the missionary societies represented
In China. In the course of his reply
to the address Of welcome Mr.. Con-
ger, referring to the boxer movement
in China said: "But there is q his
tory connected with this affair which
I have not seen in print and about
which will tell you. The organizL-
ton which Is known 'as the boxers
has beer in existence more than 100
years, but had long ceased to be Of
Importance. Two Buddhist priests In
the province Of Shan Tung, some time
in the year 1899 revived the organlza-
tion, or made an organization which
took the name of the older one.
Some have said 1t was a patriotic or.
ganization, but it was in fact at the
outset religious movement. The
priest who was the head has since
been captured, tried by German
court and executed. IT, has been
learned since the suppression Of the
boxers that the organization was en-
tirely religious The minister de-
clared that during all of the time Of
the siege there was the flimsiest pos
sible veil between the legationers and
death. II could have been brushed
aside with one charge, he said, and
would have been IL the Chinese hal

In the evening Minister Conger and
the members of his family were the
guests at reception at the state
house, under the auspices of the City

THE ARMY CANTEEN.


Chicago, May 2.-The committee of
clergymen, appointed by the Minis
ters' association of Chicago to investi-
gate the effect of the abolition of
the army canteen at Fort Sheridan,
paid secret visit to the post yes
terday and ran into hornets nest.
The members of the committee were:
Rev. Dr.. Parkhurst, of the Anti-Sa-
loon league; Rev. A. r. THAN, of Oak
park, representing the Congregation
alists; Rev. s. F. Dexter, represent
ing the Baptists; Rev. J. s. Hughes,
representing the Christian churches.
Besides these gentlemen ex-Chief
of Police Bartram, of Evanston, and
Rev. DR.. Wright, president of rhe
Presbyterian preachers, were in the
party. Col. Van Horne greeted the
visitors affably and at once ordered
the call to be sounded, summoning
the officers of the fort to the place.
DR.. Parkhurst opened by stating the
causes that had brought the party
to the fort.
Col. Van Eorne then arose and took
from his pocket newspaper clip
ping in which it was said that DR..
Parkhurst had accused army officers
of receiving champagne and other
liquors without any bills attached.
DR.. Parkhurst denied that he had
made the charge.
A member of the committee then
said something about the W. C. T. u,
and at this Col. Van Horne arose.
Tn my 40 years in the army" he
said, II never saw w. C. T. U. woln-
an come to an army post to make an
investigation. They know nothing
about it. In my opinion they would
have their hands full II they took
care Of their drunken fathers, hus-
bands and brothers"
When asked directly whether he
would admit that the canteen had
not been a detriment to the army il
II should be shown that conditions
have not improved since the aboli.
ton Of the canteen, DR.. Parkhurst
replied with n positive NO." declar-
ing that those whom he represented
objected to ''having a saloon run by
the army"
After several hours of temperance
argument the committee withdrew,
having accomplished little.
