passing through Canton, and is there
fore within plain view of thousands
of travellers.
The original plan contemplated
Idedicatory exercises on the anniver-
sary Of the funeral of the late presi-
dent. but &c il probable that in order
TO assure the presence of President
Roosevelt as orator OF the day, a later
date in September will be chosen.
The program will include, of course,
the transfer OF the body from its tenn
Iporary resting place IN the receiving
vault at West Lawn to its final abid-
ing place in the sarcophagus of the
memorial, and as escort for this last
sad journey there will be an impress
sive civic and military pageant.
The body has reposed since the day
of the funeral in a vine-clad vault not
far from the entrance to West Lawn
cemetery. This shelter is the public
receiving vault of the cemetery, but
was given over to the purpose of a
Mckinley tomb upon the death OF
Canton's most distinguished citizen
while a philosophical Cantoian
turned over his private vault to the
cemetery authorities for receiving
purposes.
The Mckinley vault has been al
most continuously from the day OF
the funeral to the present time en-
banked with flowers. Tributes have
come from every quarter of the
globe, and there have been laid on
the casket at frequent intervals floral
Iremembrances from the late presi-
dents associates in Washington and
from his successor in the white house
To this house of silence the invalid
wife whom the late president cher
ished so fondly came every day until
her death and on almost every visit
she brought a cluster of the carna-
tion for which the kindly statesman
showed so marked a preference. The
was department has maintained about
the vault military guard of honor
made up of a detachment of United
States infantry.

fired four times, three shots going
wild and one shot striking Milward
in the hip, but was stopped by a
bunch of keys in his hip pocket.
Meeting ON Street.
In his version of the affair Brons-
ton SAYS that when they met Milward
who was leading his little grandson,
attempted to speak to him, where
upon he told Milward that he did
not want to speak to a man who had
acted so dishonoraby with him. Dur
ing the argument the lie was passed
and according to Bronston Milward
attacked him and knocked him down
and was advancing on him to stamp
him when he fred four shots while
down on the pavement.
Bronston says that he fred at NIL
wards legs. as he did not want to
kill him. adding that he could easily
have killed Milward by firing at his
body.
The incident attracted a large
crowd, but no one attempted TO IN
terfere with Colonel Bronston. He
coolly pocketed his pistol after he
saw that his aim was bad and walked
down the street.
Immediately after executing bond
to appear before Judge Ridley We'd
nesday morning, Bronston and Mil
ward met again at the corner of
Short and Market streets, but were
surrounded by friends and no words
passed.
Just as Bronston started to enter
the door OF the Trust building to go
to his Office he encountered Stanley
Milward. eldest son of Colonel Mil
ward and a war of words ensued be-
tween them, sbut before either could
resort to arms or strike the other,
they were separated and taken to
their respective Offices.

The $500 900 Mckinley tomb al
Canton. o., is rapidly approaching
completion. Construction was begun
in the spring of 1905, and the cor
ner stone was laid on November 16,
1905.
The architect and contractors ex-
press confidence that it Will be con-
pletcd to the last detail by the early
autumn of 1907, the time set for the
dedication of the tomb.
The mausoleum is SO feet in heigh
and 40 feet in diameter. The grand
stairway, which constitutes the prin-
clpal approach to the tomb proper
aud is an essential part of the de-
|sign, is 10 feet in height.
The principal material employed IN
the construction of the monument Is
pink Milford granite. which has been
utilized not only for the exterior OF
the mausoleum, but also for the steps
and balustrades. The interior of the
memorial is finished in light-gray
Knoxville marble, with a honed sur
face.
The sarcophagus is to be of black
polished granite. The rough. walls OF
the edifce throughout are construct
ed Of concrete, reinforced with steel
