DEATH OF PRESIDENT MCKINLEY.

8 President McKInl ey died at 2:15 or
FgSaturday morning. He was uncon-
ssscious for several hours before his
3death. Life was prolonged by the
Suse of oxygen. Early Friday evening
jit was evident the end was near and
sat the presidents request the admin
8istration Of oxygen ceased. His con-
edition had been reassuring until Thurs
gdaY night when there was a decided
schange for the worse. An alarming
weakness of the heart began to man
sifest itself and although everything
sthat skill and science could do for his
7relief was tried, he continued to
agrow weaker until the end came.
Early Friday morning it was
iuoticed that the action of his
iheart was very weak and later he
had a sinking spell from which itI
seemed doubtful for time if he would
srecover. He finally rallied from thisl
land later in the day seemed to bel
|slightly improved but the action of
lhis heart was bad and toward night il
WAS seen that there was but slightI
Ichance for his recovery. The presi-
,dent's last words were "Good-bye, /
1good- bye. 1t is Gods way. His win
ibe DONE"
After the presidents death it wasI
found that the sudden change ony
Thursday had been caused by gang
rene, evidences of which were found
THE entire distance traversed by the
bullet. Brief funeral services were
held at the Milburn residence yester
day and this morning the remains of
the late president were taken to-
Washington where they will lie in state
Tuesday and Wednesday; on Thurs
day they will be taken to Canton, o., 1
where the funeral services will bel
held.
President Roosevelt took the oathI
of office on Saturday and his first off, Z
cial act was to proclaim Thursday,
Sept. 10Th, the day in which the body
of the dead president will be laid I'M
its last resting place, as DAY of.
mourning and prayer throughout the
United States. The proclamation
reads in part as follows:
81 earnestly recommend all the9
people to assemble on that day inl
their respective places Of divine wor
ship, there to bow down in submssionl
to the will of Almighty God, and tot
pay out of full hearts their homage of
love and reverence TO the great and
good President whose death has smit-
ten the nation with bitter grief"

RACES.

Friday morning the weather was
more favorable. The track which
had been wet and unfit for service
began to dry off and at 100 p. M. it
was in fair condition so that a little
later the races began. Crowds of
people, not deferred by the rain
of Thursday began to assemble early
and when the horses appeared ready
for the fray the seats on the grand
stand were pretty wel filed. Two
races only were completed during the
afternoon: these were the 1928 and
the 2:29 classes. These were both
hotly contested and the excitement
of the crowd was tuned to high pitch,
no one being able to tell with any GER
tainty which horse would win. In
the 1923 class it required seven heats
to finish the race. Three horses about
as evenly matched as could be possi-
BILE fought hard for the winners hon
ors. Red Spy, Little Fred and Bun
ker Hill at the end of the sixth heat
had each won twice, and the seventh

the greatest endurance, which en-
abled him to win.
In the 1923 class there were three
horses which started, but King Can
trix was distanced in the first heat
which left the race to be settled by
Judge Hastings and Yankee Girl.
This race was very exciting and re-
quired five heats to decide which was
the best horse. Yankee Girl won the
first two heats and Judge Hastings the
last three. Much praise and many
compliments were accorded to Mr..
Pike, the starter, for his valuable SER
vice in keeping the drivers in line as
we have mentioned before.
AS the races could not be finished
on Friday the association decided to
continue the races Saturday with
open gates to all who might desire to
attend. D. D. Bean completed ar
rangements with the Boston & Maine

From the showing in this depart

should judge that the interest in sheep
raising in this vicinity is waning.
The exhibition this year was the
smallest we have ever seen at the fair

here. The exhibitors whose names

SOCIAL LEADER sHovELs COAL College Man Tires of Society and
 Will Try to Work His Way Up

St. Louis dispatch to New York World Arthur Lee Cabanne, tired of society at the age 25 years, college man. athlete and social favorite, scion of one of the most prominent and wealthy families of St. Louis, son of J. Charles Cabanne, 1884 Westminster place. As wheeling pig iron, shoveling coal into the scorching furnaces and performing other tasks of hard physical labor for S1. 80 a day to acquire a knowledge of the manufacture of steel. He has en- tered a five-years' apprenticeship, and for that period will be literally dead to the world and recluse from tEe haunts in fashionable West End circles.
 In the parlance of the plant. he is a third holders helper, the most humble and unremunerative position on the payroll. In the event of faithful ser vice he vii be promoted to second molders' helper, then holders helper, and finally molder, with salary of $4 day.
 He works shoulder to shoulder for twelve hours eahc day with hundreds of negroes and grimy- faced men. His dash and polish are not discernible in his vulcanic surroundings. He eats with his fellow-la -laborers and is a good fellow with them. He tried to enter the place incog, but former footman in his family service employed at the plant recognized him, and, before night the 1,6O9 employees were whis- pering about the newcomer.
 Cabanne hopes to learn the business from the bottom up and go to the top as he becomes proficient in each de- pertinent. He is a graduate of the Western Military Academy at Alton, H., and served as First Lieutenant in the 18th infantry. He saw service in Cuba and the Philippines. But in none of his battles was he in so hot a position as he occupies at present. To shovel in coal he must go within three feet of the great furnaces. which seem scorching hot to the casual visitor at the distance O. dozen rods.

civilization at that remote period. Per-
haps Froude likes to SANDER the pagan
Irish for the reason that they made
bond-slaves Of the English. 1t is a his
torical fact 'that the English, by a
common vice of their country, had q
custom to sell their children and kins-
folk into Ireland, although they We're
neither in want nor extreme poverty"
DR.. Warner, having quoted the fore
going words, justly observes: "The
English reader must never charge the
Irish Of that age with being rude and
barbarous, because he will be bid to
look at home"
While the English of the present day
are making war on women and chill
dren in South Africa and starving them
to death, there is no occasion for VAN
ity Fair to quote Froude on Irish bar
barism and slavery in the fifth Gen.
trlry. 1t is our candid opinion that the.
Irish of that period, pagan as they
were, never surpassed the English of
the twentieth century in cruelty and
barbarity.

NEED OF CATHOLIC, COMBINATION.

The need of a combination of Catho-
lies for the assertion and securing of
Catholic rights is well illustrated in
the action of the United States gov
eminent and the attitude of large
section of the American press in re-
gard to the control and direction of
public affairs in the Philippine islands.
We have already noticed and directed
attention to the fact that not Il
Catholic was placed on any of the
commissions appointed to investigate
and report on matters relating to the
establishment of civil government in
the islands. This was nothing short of
an outrage OH Catholic sentiment and
a direct blow ut Catholic interests,
which, needless to say. were and are
largely and widely involved in the
question. The great mass of the native
inhabitants who are Christians are
Catholics, and manifestly it would be
only common decency, to say nothing
of common Justice, that Catholic opin-
ion should be consulted as to any
scheme proposed for the government
of such community. writes Father
