thought they had to makeIgood.

the Ohio society of Washington to-
night. Secretary Knox and Secretary
Wilson have also accepted invitations
to speak. Other cabinet ministers,
supreme court justices ambassadors
and congressman will be present. Nc
kinley's birthday fell on Sunday this
year and for this reason the dinner
was set for tonight.
Recently the question was raised as
to whether January 90 is really Nc
kinley's birthday, since it was dis
covered that in congressional di-
rectory, for which biographies are
supplied by the members themselves,
that February &c was gwen as his
birth date. In life insurance policy,
however, McKinley's birthday IS set
down as January 29, and it is believed
that the other date was a typographi-
cal error.

LARGE CELEBRATION
IN ENGLAND SOON

The tercentenary of the institution
of baronetcy will be among the large
celebrations to be held this year. This
is rank which England owes to the
first Stuart sovereign of Great Brit
ain, but it is denied that it was cre-
ated to provide the British Solomon
with money. The celebration is a fun
elton in which the public generally
will feel but little interest, but on the
other hands, those most interested
are preparing to celebrate the occas-
ion with befitting solemnity, for the
baronets, of which there are alto
gether over 1900, are very proud Of
their order and have recently taken
steps to clear its ranks of unlawful
intruders.
