BRIEF STOP AT LEXINGTON.
Brass Band Greeted the President IL
Kentucky-Citizens Thanked

LEXINGTON, KY, Sept. 6.-President
Roosevelt reached here at S:45 D. m. The
citizens were anxious to accord him a re-
ception, but as the trip was arranged largely
because of the Presidents desire to visit
the convention of locomotive firemen in
Chattanooga and the only stops provided
Chattanooga, Knoxville and Asheville, in
termediate stops have only been made at
such points as were required by the rail-
road arrangements. The reception at Lex
ington, therefore, was necessarily brief A
large crowd met him, however, and. during
the short stop he spoke a few words of
appreciation for the greeting. A brass
band was on hand to enliven the OCCASION. A
BRIEF stop also was made at Ludlow, KY.
and the President addressed a few words
to the assembled crowd.
The Lexington drum corps made more
noise than has been made in the State in
twenty years as the Presidents train drew
In the station. The train stopped first in
the railroad yards. The President told the
people there that the train was TO move
farther on, but that inasmuch as he might
not have chance to speak to them at the
farther stopping place, he desired to say
that he appreciated to the full the pre-
eminent qualities of Kentucky's men, Ken
tuckys women and Kentucky's horses.
lCheers and laughter.1 The train moved
on and the President made another speech
to crowd of 5000 at the station. He said:
Kentucky has ever borne more than her
share in the heavy responsibility of the de-
velopment of the Nation. / wish very much
that 1 might go through here by daylight.
[Cheers and shouts. Come on round yer

of the Nation does not change. Forty years
ago the men who fought in our great civil
war-whether they wore the blue or the
gray, they fought well-were armed with
black powder guns. A soldier to-day might

equipped with black powder guns still?''
Col. williamsburg are, sir. We look to
you for relief.

farm and remained there for three weeks
after which he went to the Huss farm
and stayed three days, returning to Rice
Vile the night before he is supposed to
have shot himself, and slept at the Hotel
Wilkes. He had his breakfast taken I'D
to his room and he remained in bed all
the forenoon. Upon arising he avoided
entering the dining room. He seemed
troubled and was very quiet Later he
went down the track about six miles and
was met on the road by j. eastman, with
whom he talked for some time. and agreed
to help eastman stack grain the next
day. The spot where the two men met
was about ninety yards from where the
body was found. The tragedy Is thought
TO have occurred shortly after Bartholin
left eastman. The body was discovered
by Joe Pratt. He was driving along the
road and saw the body lying on a shock

of the crowd as follows:
.'I want to thank you for coming here. 1t
IL just a year ago that Ohio's great Presi-
dent was shot, and ii is an anniversary
that is fitted to make all of us think very
solemnly, both of what the country lost in
his death and of what the country owed to
his life. President Mckinley had become
the President of the entire country, that
Ohio could claim him no more than all the
rest of us could claim him: and when he
died his character and his policies had SO
impressed themselves upon the Nation a
whole that in the broadest and fullest sense
he had become the President of no party
and no seton, but of the people throughout
the length and breadth OF our Union. 1t is
a good thing for us now, a year after he
was shot, to think of what he did and to
try TO keep ourselves up TO his standard.
81 thank you most heartily for giving me
a chance to see you. 1 am obliged to you
for your greeting"

CROWD AT CINCINNATI.
No Speech, Because the President Will
Return to the City.

CINCINNATI, Sept. 6.-The President
and party remained here a half hour from
so until $50 p. m. Most of the time was
spent in the yards transferring from the
tracks of the Baltimore & Ohio Southwest
ern to those Of the Queen & Crescent route.
The train was greeted with crowds at all
of the suburban stations, and especially at
Eighth street, where a short stop was
made The run over the Baltimore * Ohio
from Columbus was made on fast time, al
though the officials do not desire any ef-
forts at speed. The run was made TO this
city in less than three hours, a distance
of 120 miles. The train was backed from
the yards into the Union Central station.
where a large crowd had assembled includ-
ing the city officials.
In response to calls, President Roosevelt
appeared on the rear platform of his car
and stated that he expected to be here on
Sept. 20 to deliver an address during the
Cincinnati fall festival and that he begged
TO be excused at this time. The crowd con-
tained many railroad men, some of them
perched on top of cars on adjoining tracks,
and there the President, in addressing him.
self to them, stated that he was en- route
to Chattanooga 10 be with the firemen,
and that he would address the people OF
Cincinnati at a later day. After bowling
his acknowledgements to those on all sides
of the platform, the President shook hands
with quite a number of acquaintance who
pressed their way TO his car. AS the train
pulled out the President continued waving
his Panama In response to the cheering.

What Lightning Does Each Year.
Leslie's Monthly.


II is probably not generally known or
even imagined that every year In this coun-
try between seven and eight hundred lives
are lost by lightning stroke and more tina
a thousand persons injured. During 1899
there were 1883 animals-cattle. horses.
mules. sheep or pigs-killed by lightning in
the open fields. while the value OF the
property destroyed either directly or
through fires caused by bolts was esti-
mated at six millions of dollars.
There are numberless cases on record
where whole herds of sheep and cattle
have been struck with fatal effect. In
one instance. in Colorado. ninety-one sheep
were slaughtered by single stroke. and
fifty-two In another. In Iowa, where dur
Ing one year 266 head OF cattle were killed
by lightning. the curious fact was noticed
that lis were found in close contact with
wire fences. Their death was probably
caused by the shock received from the
fence and not from the direct stroke, as IL
was evident I'm many cases that the light
ming struck the fence at some distance
from the animals. II there had been suf-
ficient ground connections from the fence
the cattle would probably have been saved.

Strange, indeed, are the facts connected
with the short life of the infant child OF
Mr.. and Mrs. VIII Fechner, of Houston.
The child at birth displayed extraordinary
observation and mental understanding and
development that was almost terrifying in
babe. At four months this prodigy of
intellect could talk plainly and make its
wants fully known. But its little frame
began wasting away. The physicians who
who were called in shook their heads grave
ly and said to the parents: You will
never raise the child. The mind is too
powerful The mental weight Is sapping
the physical strength" They proved to be
true prophets. In few days time the
child was dead Before Its death the news
of its wonderful precocity being noised
about. many people came to see for them
selves the talking baby, and went away
