But when the tubular bridge was re-
placed by a cnntilevcr bridge built in
1897 and 1903. on the piers of the old

Facial Reconstruction.

eleventh annual congress of the Amer

outstanding general interest, says w.

that the presidency casts it's shadow
on no man but once and that If the
chance be missed then IL will never
come again. Twice the Republican
nomination seemed to be within Nc
Kinley's reach-in the national con

he put Ii away, content To wait his
proper turn, when he did not have TO
shake the tree To bring down tho
ripened fruit OF his patience.
Mckinley was beaten for the speak

he left Washington defeated con-
