ONE year ago Saturday William NC
Kinley, President of the United States
was assassinated at Buffalo. In long
line thousands of persons were passing
the President as he was holding re-
ception in the Temple of Music at the
Pan American Exposition. Leon Czol-
gosz, an anarchist, as he reached the
side of the President, drew revolver
and fred twice at the man who helo
out the right hand of fellowship 10
him. At the home OF John Il. Mill
burn, president of the Exposition the
President fingered for few hours more
than one week, and died at fifteen MIN
utes after 2 o'clock on the morning oi
September IA. His last words were
"Goodby, all; goodby. 1t is GOD
way. His will, not ours, be DONE
For his crime Czolgosz was executed
in Auburn prison on October ~.

FINS OF THE FLYING FISH.
They Are Used as Parachutes Rather
Than as Wings.

They Are Used as Parachutes Rather
Than as Wings.
Out from the warmer seas fly the
lying fish. the fish of which every one
has heard, which yet none can see for
the first time without gasp of amaze
ment. without a feeling as though be-
holding the miraculous, the fish which
has given rise to more untruthful sto-
ries than any other fish in all the seas
Undoubtedly the flying fish has wings
like bird; undoubtedly it flies, yet not
as a bird. 1t does not flap the wing
like, pectoral fins on which it is up
borne, nor, once launched in the air,
can it change its course by any move
ment of it's wings until it dips again
to the water Yet it will pass ship
making ten knots in the hour and trav-
ell in the air as far as 500 feet at
time.
Astounding, indeed, is the sight of
shoal of flying fish taking to the air
skimming far over the surface wher
the sea is calm, leaping high ovel
great waves when gales blow. Fisl
seem ludicrously out of their elemen
1
in the air. but that fish should fly i
not really more wonderful than tina
some animals and birds, like the otte
or the penguin, dive and swim to pei
; lection.
The flying fishs fins are really para
chutes to support and steady its bod
rather than wings to prOpel it. Th
Q lobe Of the tail gives propulsion to tn
= body as it leaves the water. A fyin
Q 4 fish measures about a foot in lengtl
and its long. transparent pectoral III
reach almost to the tail; but, thoug
very large when expanded. they ca

THE State Sentinel of Dover in speak
ing of the Union Republican State Con-
vention voices the sentiment of scores
of Republican in this state, not only
Union Republicans but the want-to-
win element. It says:
'sThe Union Republican Convention
Of Tuesday was perhaps the most re-
markable one ever held in the State.
From the beginning to the end it pur-
sued a steady, determined purpose to
strike at what they opposed, and to
adopt for the good of Republicanism
generally what they had no justifable
objection to.
The nominations Of Martin b. Bur.
ris and Purnal b. Norman we're due
solely to the fact that, in the discharge
of their official duties, they gave equal
courtesy, equal consideration to Unior
Republicans as we'll as to other citizens
r, Heisler Ball on the other han'
deliberately ignored them, and openl,
announced that he should notrecogniz
them. For this he has fallen. Fo
tbia will any other man fall who ask
hioh Office, and scorns those who al
him to obtain that olHce.

Accurate Delay.

Many stories are told of the lack of
punctuality upon southern railroads.
1t is said that when New England
man found his train, advertised to
leave at IL o'clock. starting at exactly
that hour he complimented the con-
ductor.
"Just on time. see," he said genial
ly. "All this talk I've heard of the
.Iateness of your trains is without foun-
dation, I've no doubt"
The conductor smiled at him gently.
This train, sir" he said without a
trace of embarrassment. "is not today S
II o'clock train, sir. 1t is yesterday
IL o'clock. TOday's will probably moi
get here from way down until tomor
row, sir."-Youth's Companion.

President Theodore Roosevelt was
painfully injured, but not disabled, by
an electric car crashing into his car
riage Wednesday morning at Pittsteld
Mass. The Presidents injuries con-
sist of severe bruises to his right cheek
and a general shock. His cheek was
swollen and black and his right eye was
almost closed. VIM. Craig, a Secret
Service detective, who was riding IN
the carriage with the President, was
instantly killed while trying to save
Mr.. Roosevelt's life by warning the
motorman to stop the car. David j..
Pratt, driver of the carriage, had his
shoulder dislocated and was bruised
all over the body.
The other occupants of the carriage
were George B. COrtelvou, secretary
to the President, whose face and body
were bruised; Gov. W. Murry Crane
of Massachusetts, and Representative
Geo. P. Lawrence, of the First Mass
achusetts district, who escaped with
slight shaking up. Euclid Madden
motorman, and James Kelley, con
ductor of the car which ran into tn
Presidents carriage, were arrested.
Mr.. Roosevelt was brave and refuse
assistance, asking that those who need
ed help worse be looked after. H
continued his trip, though he made L
set speeches, but briefly announced
the waiting crowds the accident thi
had occurred After a quick jOurne
jbyrail through Western Massachuset
and Connecticut he arrived at Bridg
port, where he boarded the Unite
States yacht Sylph and sailed to h
home at Oyster Bay Long Island.

WHILE it is true, of course, that the
President is not authorized to inter
vene directly and Of his own initiative
in the industrial troubles of any State,
and while the propriety of his using
even his personal influence in that way
would be strongly questioned, the
Chief Executive is not without proper
and legitimate means of attacking
arrogant and oppressive combinations.
Under the Sherman law it is the
duty of the Attorney General to des-

TRADE REPORT.

New York.-Bradstreet's report on
trade last week says: Retail distribu
ton. further stimulated by colder
weather and the advance Of holiday
season, has expanded largely, until
now it easily occupies first position In
the trade situation. Wholesale trade
except where inroads upon retailers
stocks have induced recorders, is laps
ing into the quiet usual at the stock
taking period. Building trade acti
witty has been checked by the prevail
ing weather and the distribution OF
lumber and building materials gener
ally is less active. Other leading in
dustries also note the quieting down
usual at this esason. Great basic con
ditions, however, make for future pros
perity.
Cold weather and snow have helped
distribution at retail in the northwest
and the outlook is for an unprecedent
ed holiday distribution on the Pacific
coast. Recorders of heavy goods from
jobbers are still of moderate proper
tions at the west, but spring sales are
larger than a year ago in dry goods
shoes and clothing. Holiday trade is
bearish for this early stage of the sea
son at the east. Heavy clothing, goods
and rubber wear have moved into con
sumption largely during the week
and spring business is reported OF
flattering volume.

whom they accuse of leaving Caracas
without giving any intimation of their
intention to abandon the city. The note
from the commander Of the allied fleet
which was sent to the Venezuelan
government through Minister Bowen,
concerning Venezuelan vessels leaving
La Guayra, is supposed to herald the
blockade.
The people Of Caracas are astonish.
ed that the government at Washington
remains silent in spite of the recent
acts OF the allied fleet.
The fact that the people of Vene-
zuela are in absolute ignorance of the
designs of the allies upon their couu-
try creates deep and disturbing i'm.
preston here. The chief officer of
President Castros guard said today
to the representative Of the Associated
Press:
IF there is to be war, let us know
and we will fight. If there is to be
only an assault on our coast, where we
can not reach the allies, the only thing
left for us to do Is to declare that to
destroy your debtors furniture Is {,
strange way to force the payment of
his obligations. I believe this situa-
ton will soon come within the scope
of the Monroe doctrine"
Caracas-A note from the com
manders at La Guayra was sent by
United States Minister Bowen at Car
acas and forwarded by him to the gov
ernment officials here. The note. which
is in the name of Great Britain and
Germany. requests all Venezuelan
ships after the lapse Of five days to
refrain from visiting the port OF La
Guayra until the present difficulties
are over.
