MeK,n,e, Lived and Died Poor.

President Mckinley was poor man
when he died. Mrs. Mckinley is and
was the owner of the Mckinley Block
in Canton and of other property,
amounting in all to perhaps 100000.
Mr.. Mckinley himself was always poor.
When he was in Congress he was al
ways compelled to borrow to pay cam
paign expenses and these loans he paid
out of his salary. He was worth prac
tically nothing when elected to the
presidency. Though for over four years
as chief executive of the nation he
drew salary of $4,000, he was able
to save in all only about $4,000. He
carried $4,000 life insurance, however.
so that his estate, which by will he left
to Mrs. Mckinley, amounts to a little
more than 100000 This, with her
own private fortune, places Mrs. Nc
Kinley on comfortable financial ba-
sis.

GOOD JUDGE OF DISTANCE.
What an Expert Golfer Did with His
Watch.

What an Expert Golfer Did with His
Watch.
The accuracy and steadiness of aim
and the wonderful judgment of dis
lance acquired by steady practice at the
game of golf are source of great sur
prise to the spectator who is not a
devotee of the game. Some of the pro-
fessionals who have spent years at
the game, both in this country and
abroad, have a great following Of the
younger element on the links, who try
to copy the teachers in a way that is
ludicrous.
About year ago Willie Campbell.
an old-time champion and all-around
expert of the game, was employed as
instructor at the Franklin Park links.
His accuracy in making drive was al
most perfect, and his aim was so sure
that frequently he would amuse the
crowd by placing penny on the crys-
tai of his watch and with a strong
drive pick it off without even scratch
ing his watch. After seeing Campbell
do this once or twice a young man
who had acquired fairly good knowl-
edge of the game thought that he could
do this little turn by using golf ball
instead of coin. Before a few in
terested spectators he placed the ball
on his gold watch and prepared for a
