through the mud and water. We saw
many pitiful sights on that six-mile
stretch, enough to make us think
lightly Of our own troubles. There
were delicate women on horses, with
children tied on to other horses, all
wading through mud and water that
sometimes reached to the bellies of
the animals. AS we were crossing a
slough we saw lady on horse, with
her three small children tied onto
another. The children were crying;
the mother was trying to keep her
courage up and urge the poor beast,
bearing her children. along. Present
ly vaquero came along and helped
them through the slough.
This was Vanderbilt's road, over
which that lady had paid her fare.
With such terrible exposure practical
ly all the way across Nicaragua It was
no wonder that SO many of the trav.
elers were Frustrated with fever by
the time they reached the Pacific
steamer And of the thousands who
paid to go to California over the Van
derbilt road many never got nearer
their destination than the open field
back of the Mexican town of AGA
pulco, which came in time to be
known as the American graveyard"

Evarts Was Just a Plain Man

The evening following the great aft
the secretary Of state gave a formal
dinner at his home. Nearly all of the
leading members of the administration
were present. or course, Sir Richard
Webster was also present, and when
one Of his fellow diners asked him
what his experience had been at the
capitol few hours before he at once
began to voice his intense admiration
for one of the speeches he had heard.
Then, turning to Mr.. Evarts, ne con-
tinued:
The speech I have in mind was
made by Senator Conkling. believe
he represents your own state, Mr..
Evarts."
The secretary Of state nodded his
head slightly. while the other men,
bers of the administration struggled
to suppress smiles; for the antipathy
that existed between Evarts and Conk.
ling was we'll known to one and all
in our house Of commons" pursued
Sir Richard. innocently. Nor have I
ever witnessed more impressive de-
livery. The man is magnificent. Az
an orator he is without a superior"
Again Mr.. Evarts nodded his head,
this time ever SO slightly.
And, l should say" persisted the
Englishman. "he should be your fore
most orator. presume he Ia a very
able advocate. He must have many
clients in your courts. Is 1t not so.
Mr.. Secretary"
This time there was not even an al
most imperceptible noddlng Of the
secretary Of states head. Instead, In
words precisely spoken. and with .
manner that was not lost upon Sir
Richard. his host replied:
Il do not know whether It is or not.
I never saw him In court, and ! never
heard of his being there"
For moment there was silence.
.hen Sir Richard, with commendable
tact. changed the subject and few
minutes later Mr.. Evarts was once
again tho charming and entertaining
host. But the other members Of the
administration still slyly smiling.

Secretary Of State Could Not Conceal
His Dislike for ConkIing When
Sir Richard Webster Praised
the Senator.

Two famous men of yesterday who
were naturally repellant, and for no
good reason that was apparent to their
friends, were William M. Evarts and
Roscoe Conkling, and the intense an
tipathy. often bordering on downright
hatred, that they bore for each other
was productive of at least one incl
dent illustrative of how small some
great men can be at times.
When. in 1872, Mr.. Evarts acted as
chief counsel for the United States
before the celebrated Geneva Court
of Arbitration, he made the acquaint-
ance of Sir Richard e. Webster, who,
In 1900, was raised to the peerage
and the same year became Lord Chief
Justice of England. The friendship
then established was conNnaad- by cor:
respondence after Mr.. Evarts had re-
turned home, and when the latter
learned that Sir Richard was planning
to make trip to America he gave
the Britirh ,prist q cordial invita-
ton to visit him at his home In Wash
ington. Mr.. Evarts was then secre-
tary OF Ctate.
In due course the Englishman ar
rived at the Evarts mansion and was
taken by his host to meet President
Hays. now, it SO happened that the
next day Roscoe Conkling was to
make an important speech in the SEN
ste chamber. The president knew
this; he also knew of his secretary of
states dislike Of Conkling, and. half
in the spirit Of mischief and half be-
cause he wanted the visitor from
abroad to hear American oratory at
its best. he volunteered the informa-
ton that Sir Richard ought surely to
visit the senate chamber the next
afternoon. The Englishman replying
that he would be pleased to do SO.
there remained nothing for his host
to do but to exercise his prerogative
as head of the state department and
secure his guest good seat In that
section of the gallery reserved for the
use Of foreign diplomats.

McKinley's Campaign Methods

Burchard at the now historic recep-
ton rendered to Mr. Blaine In New
York city just before election day of
1884. Had Mr.. Blaine been provided
before the reception with copy Of
Doctor Burchard's remarks he unques-
tionably would have stricken out the
phrase. Rum, Romanism and Rebel
lion," words that undoubtedly cost Mr..
Blaine the election. Yet long before
the Blaine-Burchard incident occurred
William Mckinley had adopted the
rule Of knowing beforehand what was
to be said to him and of him by his
admirers and supporters. In fact, he
put this rule into effect during his
first campaign for congress.
Furthermore, Mckinley was prob
ably as careful In the preparation of
campaign speeches as was Roscoe
Conkling. William H. Seward or Ho-
ratio Seymour. Like those great cam
paigners, Mckinley took the utmost
pains In the preparation of political
address. Indeed, he went even far
Their than any of those men did, per-
haps because he did far more general
campaigning than any of them, fire.
quently speaking two and three times
a day during an entire political cam.
paign.
Having thoroughly thought out the
argument in support Of the issues
which he represented, Mckinley la
bored assiduously over reducing his
arguments to writing. That task final
ly accomplished to his satisfaction, he
then carefully divided what he had
written into sections. Sometimes
section would consist cf two or three
brief paragraphs. Sometimes 1t would
be long enough to consume fifteen or
twenty minutes in delivery. Again 1t
would come perilously near to EN-.
bracing everything that had been re-
duced to writing.
Never was a section arbitrarily
given certain length. Whenever Nc
Kinley made campaign tour of any
importance he carried with him
timetable of his own making. This
showed the places where he was to
speak and the length of stay in each
town. II the train schedule called for
one-minute stop at the next town
Mckinley glanced over that portion
Of his speech which could be deliv.
cred. and was prepared, In fact, for a
one-minute address. II five-minute
stop was scheduled, then he would re-
fresh his memory of the five-minute
section of his speech. A fifteen-minute
stop caused the flfteen-minute section
to be brought forth; and where time
permitted the entire speech would, Of
course, be delivered. SO skilful. how
ever, was Mckinley in varying his
phraseology that he never seemed to
repeat himself. Practically every time
he delivered the five-minute section of
his speech, for example, It would be
clothed in a new verbal dress. Yet
the meaning of the section was al.
ways the same, and as clearly pre-.
scented in one dress as another.
This, perhaps, was the most strik
ing Of the various tricks of campaign
ing that Mckinley employed which
led those who accompanied him on
his campaigns to state with practical
unanimity that Mckinley was the most
skilful and economical user of his
time, his voice, and his mental and
physical strength of any campaigner
they had ever accompanied.

There comes from Mexico a most re-
markable dry powder called Cu-u-
clay. It Is a pure and natural sub
stance mined in the deep earth.
Dr. G. F. s., a well-known physician
in Chihuahua, Mex, cured a pustular
eczema with four applications. He had
surprising success with it on case of
erysipe1as.
g. A. Of Ell Paso, Tex, cured ring
worms which his son had on his head.
Jacob P, Chicago, almost instantly
cured eczema and a bad case of PIN
piles on the face from which he had
suffered for a long time. All who try
Cu-ti-clay are simply astonished.
Eczema, boifs. wounds, ulcers, salt
rheum. any skin disease, any eruption
OF the face, hands, scalp or body, Gu
ti-clay cures quickly; relief Is instant.
Theo. L., Chicago, says: my hands,
arms, legs. and feet were raw with
eczema; in Is minutes all pain was
gone; in two days I WAS cured"
These cases are impressive. The &C
tual sores disappear and you know
there is something remarkable in Gu
ti-clay. The powder Is pure-nothing
added, nothing taken from it-being
put UP. just as 1t Is taken from the
earth. You will be overjoyed to find
how quickly it relieves all sensation
OF soreness and you will be astonished
to notice how quickly it heals and
cures the worst and ugEest sore, ulcer,
carbuncle or eruption.
You can get package of Cu-ti-clay
at.any drug store for Is cents, or will
