THE SHOOTING.

AT the time of the shooting Presi-
dent Mckinley was holding a re-
ception. 1t was presidents Day" at
the Pan-American, and there were
thousands of people there, anxious
to see ard shake hands with the
Chief Magistrate. The Temple OF
music wac crowded, and the assass-
in, with the rest worked his way
along towards the raised platform
on which Mr.. Mckinley was stand
ing. There was nothing about nis
appearance to excite the suspicion OF
the guards and detectives who were
on watch. Czolgosz had bis left
hand covered with silk handkerchief
which concealed the revolver. Hs
extended his hight hand to GRASP
that of the President, and as he die
so fired with his left hand. Th'
guards iinmedia' ely overpowereC

There were loud cries of "lync'
him." and doubtless the prisone
would have been killed if the crow,
could have gotten hold of him at tn
time.

There are many people who will be pleased with the bill which Senator Lodge has introduced into the senate and which provides for the. erection of an office building for the exclusive use of the president and his staff. The White House has been totally inale- quate for the requirements of the president as office and residence and it has been thought necessary either to abandon its use as residence and erect home for the president else where, or to add wings to the present building. The last proposition had been favored by Mir Mckinley and plans for the wings had been pre- pared, but Mir Roosevelt, shortly after he became president, objected to them and the matter was dropped.

YOUNG WOMEN B1LLPosTER.

America boasts the only woman billposter in the world as far as is known. She is Miss Cora c. Kimball, Whose home is in country town of Iowa, and is yielding her brush upon fences with great effect, both artistic and financial.
 Miss Kimball studied art with as- pirations like those of other young wo- men, but she found before long that real art as she could do it there was little demand for, and less money Undaunted by disappointment the girl began to turn her thoughts to some way of making her brush of use, and the result was she painted her sign as a billposter, put it up, and business has been active ever since.
 She created great excitement at first. but settled down so industriously that she. has won respect of all her towns women who are now accustomed to the sight of her perched aloft plaster ing up bills with energy.
 No ladder is too high for her. and when at work she wears a short skirt, high boots and felt hat.
 Her work is giving the utmost satis- faction as she is prompt and reliable. and she is gradually absorbing all the business of the place. York Eve ming Telegram.

The report of the Schley court has been given to the public. Two of the board condemn the hero of Santiago, while Admiral Dewey, who knows what it means to get into scrap like the one Schley was in, praises him for his bravery on that occasion, The country had made up it's mind some time ago on. the question, so that the decision just given to the public will not cut any figure. Most people be lieye Admiral .Schley did what ninety nine.out of hundred other men would do under like circumstances. He was on the scene and, knew what was wanted, and when the time came for action he was there. He bore the brunt of the. battle, and he won a great victory. The fair minded people 'of the country will always think so, no matter what prejudieed minds may think or say.

When the general protocol of Pekin was signed providing for the payment of indemnities to the United States of s25. 900. 900, with interest, in install ments which would extend over a per iod of nearly forty years, it became ne cessary for the president to designate some institution in the east to receive the payments. At first it was thought that it would be necessary to select some English banking company, but the Guaianteei Trust company of New York represented to the administra- ton that if they were favored with the commission of receiving the funds for the United States they would establish the necessary bank and after satisfy ing himself of the desirability of such a course. the president decided to com mission that institution to collect the American share of the indemnity. Rep resentatiyes of the company are now in the Orient looking for suitable To- cation.

The only thing, says Banker Clews in his weekly letter, that will adjust the money situation with the banks in connection with their reserves is liq- uidation in the stock market, as through that process only at this time can the bank reserves be maintained. It is this feature of the situation that threatens lower prices for stocks be fore We get out of the present rut of money stringency. The receding prices in the stock market of late should not have taken any sagacious person by surprise, as they were inev- itable. Artificial methods in keeping up prices beyond what conditions war rant cannot be continued indefinitely. Wall street ought to have had three big surges in prices at least during the last several months, but artificial methods in bridging over prevented such natural setbacks. The steel strike was sufficient incentive for a good sized break; the corn crop dam- age was another. and the assassination of President Mckinley was a third. The effect of these three important fac tors upon the market was scarcely per ceptible, owing to the herculean ef- forts which were made to prevent a semi-panic in each instance. Now that we are verging on the 1st of January, when the corn crop will commence to move, it will be found that there IS but little to send forward, and then the serious damage to the crop will be full ly realized. The market has com menced to discount it now. The present tendency of the various mar kets is what grows will go up and what is made will go down. King Corn so decrees by autocratic rule, thus showing his almighty power in producing cause and effect and regu- lating supply and demand.

to see. He gave Senator Fairbanks a showdown in connection with the appointment of Judge Francis ID. Ba- ker to succeed the late Judge Woods of the United States circuit court, that he will remember for some time as q reminder that things have changed; that he no longer wields undisputed power at the white house in considera- tion of his posing as the Mckinley can didate for 1904, and keeping the firing from being centered on Hanna. The Baker appointment is given out as a triumph for Senator Beveridge, but those on the inside knew that he had Roosevelt appointed Baker to impress upon the Indiana republicans that Fairbanks has no prestige with him. Incidentally Senator Beveridge will get some credit for the appointment, which Mir Roosevelt at one time de clared in the most positive terms he would not make. but he has paid for it by committing himself to MT Roose- welt. Senator Foraker also, this week, publicly committed himself to MI Roosevelt. He did it as side swipe at Senator Hanna, but that does not prevent it's counting for MT Roosevelt who is surprising the politicians with his knowledge of the game.

The institution which MT Carnegie desires to see in the national capital win not interfere with the numerous educational establishments already in the city, as the plans, so far as they have been formulated, are for a uni yersity which will be devoted exclu- siyely to the higher education, it being Mir Carnegie's desire to see this cotlns try so well equipped educationally as to render unnecessary the present GUS tom of sending the graduates of Amer ican universities abroad for their post graduate courses. The location of such an institution in Washington is particularly delicious as, apart from the fact that it is the capital, it is fast becoming the center of learning in tie United States, owing to the fact that there are so many advantages for scientific research and investigation, and that the scientific bureaus of the government afford exceptional facili- ties for pursuing certain lines of study. At first glance $1O,OOO,O00 seems a very large sum of money and it has been said that that is the total endowment of Harvard university, but, even though that is the case, Harvard owns buildings and land worth at this time at least $20,0oo,OoO, and, moreover, her average of 1000 students brings her an income of not less than $50 each per year, while it is Mir Carnegie's de- sire that this university shall be free to all who can matriculate.
