SHORT TALK AT FLoMAToN.
President Referred to Reunited Coun-
try and Training of Children.

The Presidents train stopped at Fiona
ton. Ala, for a few minutes on its way to
Mobile, the President receiving hearty
welcome He spoke briefly from the rear
platform of his as follows:
MY fellow-citizens, l wish to thank you
most heartily for coming to greet me to-
day The last time l came through your
great and beautiful state l was with my
regiment on the way to the Spanish war.
In that regiment l had more men whose
fathers had worn the gray than had whose
fathers had worn the blue; but they united
in the generous rivalry to know differ
ence and in the emulation of seeing whether
or not each could do all that was in him
for the flag of your common country.
Gentlemen, think how fortunate We are
as a people that, whereas, most great wars
leave memories of rancor and bitterness,
we now have the right of Americans all
over the country to claim as part of the
glory of all Americans all that was done
alike by the ex-Union and ex-confederate
men, provided only that man did all that
in him lay; acted as he should act in the
times that tried mems souls.
There are surely here in the audience
men who are veterans of the civil war; and
they have given us lesson, not merely by
what they did in war, but by what they did
in peace. The same spirit that made them
valiant in battle made them, when they
came home from battle, take up the strings
of their lives where they had dropped them
when the appeal to arms came, and do their
best in walks Of peace 1t is because of
that quality that we as people have such
right to glory in the progress made in
our land.
'In greeting the people. in greeting the
veterans of the civil war, I now. want to
get down to the other end of the line, and
say justsa word about the children. Chill
dren of Today are going to decide what our
country shall be in the immediate future,

Stewards Fined DAILY
For Whipping Henni1g
Extreme Penalty to WelI-Known Owner for
Beating Apprentice Boy-Yesterday
Was Gentlemen Riders Day.

Father Bill Daily has at last got out
into the limelight.
In former years Daily was something
of factor here. but he seems to have
lost luck and has not had a winner this
spring except Amberjack, who got first
place on the disqualification Of York
shire Lad.
But DAILY broke out in a new place
yesterday. Before racing began word
reached the stewards that Henning. one
of Dalys apprentice boys, had been
badly beaten the night before by. his
employer. DR.. James Kerr was asked
to examine the boy. and reported that
the youngster bore the marks of hard
beating
Henning also had an additional COM
plant to make. He, rode High Life In
the first race and claimed that DAILY had
told him that If he did not get away
well and ride a good race the licking
would be repeated.
The stewards fined DAILY $500. which
amount is the limit within their powers
to assess. DAILY has been on the carpet
before on similar charges and was once
fined 5000 for the same offense. His re-
cord in regard to the treatment Of the
boys in his employ is an unsavory one.
He attempted to deny that he had been
fined and tried to explain by saying that
he only gave the boy little weIl-de-
served chastisement. He also said that
the boy is a violent tempered, imperti-
pent youngster, who actually needs to
be ''birched."

the props from under the Osler theory,

usefulness.
Mr.. Knut was loudly cheered for his
pluck in riding the erratic Twilight af
ter his Chevy Chase experiences, and he
got a round of applause as every fence
was successfully negotiated. Mc.
Evans and Montrip are hard combina-
ton to beat, however, and Mr.. knut
had to be content with second place.
Mr.. MadduX is one of the best known
and most popular horsemen OF Virginia.
He was a well known amateur rider a
few years ago, but there was some sur
prise when it was seen that he had re-
turned to the game and was going to ride

He rode a splendid race, using fine

Mr.. Ewart, an honorary attache of the

on Port Arthur. His only fault was
that he made his run too soon. But he
