His presentation, was unique in other way?, for ha said: "Tli? Iltt?buTg bar has as fine lot of men as you ever laid eyes on. (Laughter an J applause.) We do not want you to make any sjeech: we do not expect you to Fhake bands with ua. Yon must not do it. We wanted to s-e the young soldier that b'ft colisre to join the great army of the Hepublic ps a private, not going In as a commission d oftlcT.

representative of the human family, a pood citizen, which U the hlchet honor that can be conferred upon American citizens." Governor MeKinloy said, after the applause had subsided: I have no purpose to inflict a speech on you. but I cannot forbear predentin?: myself Ion enough to thank you for this compliment and in- honor of this call, for I deem it loth a compliment and an honor to have the ccnlh mon of the b sral profession of the eity of Pittsburg call upon mo at my home. I regretted exceedingly that my ent'airement would not permit of my joining with you in thr? pleasures at Congress Iake to-day and it was only because engagements already made which could not b "t aside that prevented my being with you in person. I thank you for this greeting; 1 thank your spokesman for the generous words spoken, and if it had not ben prohibited. I would have been very Klad to shake you all by the hands, but as it has been I must not disregard the rule of the court, although I believe you are now beyond Judge White's jurisdiction." There were three cheers for tlv next President and three cheers again and then a general ru.h to personally greet liovernor McKlnley after which Judge White called the delegation to order, saying: Therf Is evidently not a member of the Pittsburg bar looking forward to any office." A notable Incident of the day was the call In person if a committee of the L r ion Veteran Ik1o?i from Columbus, wh'.eh presented the (Jovernor with the following memorial, handsomely engrossed and neat ly framed: "Whereas.

That we rejoice that this encampment is honored by containing on Its roll of membership one whose record and worth have brought to him this deferred recognition and high Indorsement from a large and representative body of his fellow-countrymen."

Chandler, the Monitor states that It advocates the flection of McKlnley and Hoivlrt a3 the ablest representative of the great Republican party, whoe restoration to the national power Is required by the best Interests of the peo;!e. The editorial ' also states that the Monitor also advocates opposition to t.e free and unlimited coinage of silver bullion under existing conditions by the Vnlted States alone, and. moreover, opposition to the single gold standard of money. Ik'VOtlon to tho double standard, the hi. tnetallism of recent centuries, Is expressed With the following observations: The existing gold standard must be preserved. If It is so decreed, only until it as posi-ible to restore the double standard by international agreement or by Just and reasonable safeguards of United States legislation. Whenever the choiee comes, if lt ever must come, between permanent acquiescence in the single "goid standard and the adoption by the United States of the single silver standard, the Monitor and Statesman will not be found on the side of Kold. Such a monetary system will everywhere tend to make the rich richer and the poor poorer, and will intlict grinding iovcrty and intense woe on the great masses Of the helpless mankind all over the world."

The House of Com mons sat throughout the night debating the agricultural land rating bill. Intended to lessen the taxation on agricultural land. The debate proceeded quietly until 2 o'clock n the morning. The government kept its forces well In hand ensuring. a majority of over 10. After midnight the excitement ncreased as the different clauses were car ried under the closure rule. The Liberal cader. ir William Vernon Harcourt, de nounced the methods which the Conservative leader. Mr. Balfour, was adopting In order to extricate the government from the mess Intowhich it had fallen through ma li ne: too-many election promises and over whelming Itself with Important bills, which, i ke tho education bill, recently shelve'4 tor repairs, it has been unable to carry in pplto of its overwhelming majorty, a fact for which the leadership of Mr. Balfourrha-s been greatly blamed. Sir -.Michael Hicks-Reach. Chancellor of the Excheoucr. angrily retorted that its tactics were rapidly reducing parliamentary roceedlngs to little more than a farce. Mr. James II.

Sporting Life will publish to-morrow a dispatch from its Henley correspondent which says: Just below Temple isle the Americans fell in with Trinity Hall's second crew. A race for over a minute and a half course was proposed and accepted. It took a long time to get the boats In position for a fair start, as the wind blew the frail racing machines all over the river. At length they got started. Yale at a stroke of forty-two and the Cantabs at a stroke of fortv. The Americans forged ahead at the start, but Trinity Hall came up again and thus the shells hunpr together for a snort time. Hut the Yankees gradually dropped their rivals and at the termination of nine ty seconds they had beaten the Trinity Hall crew by three-quarters or a length. In' the afternoon, over the full course. some watches made Yule's trial as slow as seven minutes and seventeen seconds. A rumor that the first Trinity crew would scratch for the grand challenge- cup Is officially denied. Compliment to Americans. LONDON, June SO. It has been decided that a review of troops will be held at ldershot camp In honor of the Honorable Artillery Company of Massachusetts, now on its way to England: The day of this military turnout has not yet been fixed, but it is known that the matter was arranged at the suggestion of the Prince of Wales. This is the greatest compliment it Is possible for the War Department to pay the Americans, as reviews, up to the pres ent, have never been held save for crowned heads. In addition, also In honor of the American visitors, an imposing artillery parade has been ordered at Woolwich, the headquarters of the Royal Arlil.ery. Johnson In Persona Aon Grain. HAVANA, June 20.

DETERMINED TO RULE. (Coneluiled frnm Flrnt race.) "ble to taking the steps necessary to secure a silver man for temporary chairman of the convention regardless of the choice of the national committee if that choice fell on a gold advocate, hut expressed no preference as to aspirants for that position. Governor Altgeld was elected chnlrman of th delegation, C. W. lilies, of llillsboro. secretary, and Colonel Heffernan. of Rloom'nirton. sergeant-at-arms. The delegation adjourned to meet again next Saturday, at 1 p. m. The fact that the Illinois delegation postponed its decision as to what candidate It would support In the convention has created almot as much comment as the decision which the delegation reached looking to the abrogation of the two-thirds rul Tho only explanation made Is that it was considered desirable to look the held over more completely than has yet been possible before taking a position. It is intimated, however, that Governor Altgeld. who is ;n complete control of the delegation, has plans of his own which are not yet rutflciently matured to be sprung. Those who have talked with him say that he Is especially concerned to secure a candidate on the national ticket who will add strength to the Democratic party in Illinois. Ex-Congressman Williams, who made the suggestion that the delegation should indicate Its preference, said he had Introduced the subject because he believed that If the Illinois delegation would take a position at this time it could practically, name the candidate because of the influence it would have on other doubtful delegations. "I shall renew the suggestion at .our meeting to be hold next Sunday." he said, "and hope It "may nor then be too late for the State to make Its Influence umt; out tne sooner wc act the stronger we shall be." .Mr. Williams admitted that while the name of no person had been mentioned in the meeting his purpose had been to. if possible, secure Instructions for Mr. Bland, "lie is the man for lis to nominate if xve would not 1 misunderstood." said Mr. Williams. "The people know where Mr. Illand stands on the money question, and, while others may be as reliable for silver, they are not so well understood to be, for no others have ben so thoroughly identified with the cause as he has been. No explanations would be necessary with Mr. Rland a the Democratic candidate." Mr. Williams ;Hld also that the Democrats of Southern Illinois were practically a unit for Eland, nnd expressed the opinion that Bland could cary the State on a free-coinage platform.

" Construction of Coxtly Fortifications About to lie Commenced. NEW YORK, July 1. The Morning Advertiser this morning says: Within a few weeks will be commenced one of the most gigantic operations in the history of the War Department. Fortifications more powerful than those existing anywhere in the world will be built at Fort Wadsworth and Sandy Hook, the cost of the work being about $10,000,000. But this is only a begin ning to place New York in a position to defend herself against foreign foes. Construction vlll be continued from time to time until the fortifications outlined by the elaborate plans have been completed, and when that is done the total cost, it is said, will have been about Thj.w0.000. At Fort Wadsworth new forts will extend a mile south irom the present barracks, extending almost from Fort Wadsworth to South Beach, in this tract of land wilr be built a continuous line of forts, mounting twenty-five guns of huge dimensions in all. Here also-it Is Intended to build a torpedo btatl.m and observatory. The work at Fort Lafayette will not be so important. Only -iftcen tuns will be mounted there, but they alone would go a long way towards protecting New York from harm. DISASTROUS FIRE.

Helena, Mont., says the Cheyenne Indians have donned their warpaint and are holding pow-wows, preparatory to a general uprising. Several troops of the Tenth Cavalry have been ordered from Fort Custer tc the Cheyenne agency at Lame Deer. Custer county, Montana. The Cheyennes have been unusually Indolent and Ill-tempered this spring, and the depredations upon the cattle and stock of the white settlers have been more extensive than they have been for a number- of years, and evidently committed in a spirit of pure maliciousness.

The title of the national nut mav al most be given to the succulent edible named In our caption. Everybody loves the peanut and if babies don't cry for it they cry after eating it. It is a fruit endeared to the plain people bv a thousand tender associations. What would a circus be without the peanut? The familiar 5cent bag Is one of childhood's fondest memories, nor have we noticed that the peanut habit is dropped altogether in adult cars, urown-up ioiks eac peanuts rather nolOCetlonllv nnd withnllt thn H.nH nh:in. don of youth, but eat them they do whereever an out-of-door crowd or a crowd on amusement bent is gathered together. Of late, too, the peanut has crept into fashionaoie circles, ueing served along with salted almonds between the courses of elegant dinners. let It must be conceded' that thro haa long been a popular impression that the peanut is indigestible. This of course has often made it all the more enjoyable, adding the zest of the forbidden to what was before delicious. But now this one objec tion to its universal acceptability is being irintu oy rneuicai men ana students or hveiene. who sav that the Tnnnt haa hr.cn unjustly reviled and is really an excellent article of food. One Dr. Brewer st.itf in the Journal of Hygiene that he gets remarkably favorable results bv having his consumptive patients inhale the fumes of vinegar and eat many peanuts. "The pea mu, remarks the iew York Medical Times, "has long been known as nn excellent fat nrcducer and h, brpn nsori good results in weak digestion, and in the nanos oi ir. urewer nas heen found more easily digested, more nutritious and agreeable to the tastf th:in r-oil Kvor r rA ,, , . ------ ......

Persia is a great country, which was In old times very Illustrious and nowtrful: hut now the Tartars have wasted and destroyed It. In Persia is the city of Saba, frcm' wnicn me 'inree Magi set out whn thy went to worship Jesus Christ; and in this city they are burled, in three verv large and beautiful monuments, side by side. And above them there Is a square building, carefully kept. The-Todies are still entire, with the hair and beard remaining. Messer Marco Polo asked a great manw questions of the people of that city as to those Three Magi, but never one could he And, that knew aught of the matter, except thai these were three kings who were buried there In days of old. However, at a place three days' Journey distant, he heard "of what I am going to tell you. lie found a village there which goes by the name of Cala Ataoerlsta4. which is as much as to say. -The Castle of the Fire-worshippers." And the name is rightly applied, for the people there do worship fire, and'I will tell you why. They relate that In old times three kings of that country went away 'to worship a prophet that was born, and they carried with them three manner of offerings. Gold, and Frankincense, and Myrrh; In order to ascertain whether that prenhet were God or an earthly king, or a physician. Fcr! say they. If he takes the gold, then he is an earthly king: if he takes the Incense he is God; If he takes the Myrrh he is a physician. So it came to pass when they had come to the place where the Child was born, the youngest of the Three Kings went In first and found the Child apparently Just of his own age; so he went forth again, marveling greatly. The middle one entered next, and like the first he found the Child seemingly of his own age; so he also went forth again and marveled greatly. Lastly, the eldest went in, and as it had befallen the other two, eo it befell him. And he went forth very pensive. And when the three had rejoined one- another, each told what he had seen; and then they all marveled the more. So they agreed to go in all three together, and on doing so they beheld the Child with the appearance of Its actual age, to-wlt. some thirteen days. Then .they adored, and presented their Gold. and.Incense, and Myrrh. And the child took all the three offerings, and then gave them a small closed box; whereupon the KlngK departed to return into their own laud. And when they had ridden many days, 'they said they would sea what the Child had given -them. So they opened the little box. and inside it they found a utone. On seeing this they began to wonder what this might be that the Child had given them. and what was the Import thereof. Now the signification was this: when they presented their offerings, the Child had accepted all three, and when they saw that, they had said within themselves that He was the True God. and the True King, and the True Physician, And what the gift of the Ftone Implied was that this aitn which had be gun In them should abide firm as a rock. For He well knew what was In their thoughts, llowbelt, they had no under standing at all of this signification of the erift of the stone: so they cast it rnto i)wilL Then straightway a fire from Hea via descended Into that well wherein the stone had been cast. And when the Three Kings beheld this marvel they were sore amazed. And it greatly repented mem mat they had cast away the stone; ror well they then perceived that It had a great and holy meaning. So they took of that rire and carried it to meir own coumry, ana placed It In a ricn ana oeauuiui cnurcn. And th tn PCitIe keep it continually burning, nnd x.-rr.

offer are kindled with that fire. And If ever the fire becomes extinct they go to other cities round about where the same faith Is held, and obtain of that fire from them, and carry it to the church. And this s the reason why the people of this coun try worship fire. They will often go ten days' journey to get of that lire. Such then was the story told oy tne people of that castle to Messer. Marco Polo; they declared to him for a tiutn mat sucn was their history, and that one of the Three Kings was of the city called Saba, and the second of Ava, and the third of that very castle where they still worship fire, with the people of all the country round about. An Example, of MeKluleyUra. Pittsburg Chronicle-Telegraph. The report of the State Bureau of Indus trial Statistics shows that the tin plate ndustrv Is firmly established in this coun try, and furthermore, that although called into existence by protective duties the price of the article to consumers has been diminished Instead of being increased. The tin plate manufacture dates from the passage of the McKlnley tariff, which imposed a dutv of 2V cents a pound. The Wilson bill reduced this duty by half, makng the rate 1 l-o cents a pound, evertneless the industry has been able to maintain itself. Pennsylvania has thirty plants engaged in tin plate manufacture, and three more are building. Among those already In operation Is the largest tin plate works in the world and more than uO per cent, ot the entire output of this country is made in Pennsylvania. While this Industry has been established. giving employment to thousands of worKers, what has been the experience of consumers? Tho free trade theory 13 that tho tariff is a tax, which ultimately the consumer has to pay. The protectionist argument is that when natural advantages for the establishment of an industry are pres-rf ent the protective duty brings out a domestic competition to the foreign product, which compels a reduction in the price of the article. The facts as regards the price of tin are these: Before the McKlnley bill went into effect standard tin plate was selling at $..17 a box. When the McKlnley bill went Into effect the price rose to a box. and eventually to &."0. That was the high est point reached, and since then. .s the domestic product covered the field, the price has declined until in the present year it reached $3.S'j a box. There could not be a stronger instance of the beneficial e?ect cf protection. TXie Greatest Fact In Science. John Fiske, In July Atlantic. In the course of the foregoing survey (of A Century's l'rogress in Science) ope fact stand out witn especial prominence: it appears that about' half a century ago the foremost minds or the world, with "what ever group of ihenomena they were occupied, had fallen and were more nnd more falling, into a habit of regarding things not as having originated in the tiiape In which we now find them, but as having been slowly metamorphosed irom some other ehape through the agency of forces similar in nature to the forces now at work. liver fincc our earth cooled to a point at which Its solid crust acquired stability, since the earliest mollusks and vertebrates began to swim in the seas and worms to crawl In the damp ground.

"Well. I'd have the furnace left, wouldn't I?" said the gold bug, trying to be funny. "Yes. and nothing else," retorted the silverite, hotly.

' National Capital. It was during the first Cleveland administration, shortly after the President's marriage, when his bride was giving a series of luncheons to women in official life. A party of thirty or forty ladles were gathered in the blue room at the White House one day by Invitation, when everybody present perceived, by thoe subtle influences that cannot be evaded or suppressed, that somebody was tardy, and that luncheon was delayed for that reason. Finally Mrs. Cleveland arose and said sweetly that although me of the guests had not arrived, she would not wait any longer, and led the way to the dining room. The party wa3 scarce seated before Mrs. Bland came bouncing In. her cheeks flushed and her eyes shlnging with excitement.

Pl university president. Committee Appointed to Engage Ono A Post Graduate Course. The regents of the University of Indianapolis have appointed a committee to consider the matter of engaging a president for the faculty of the university. The affairs of the university are practically in statu quo, although there is considerable discussion of plans for the future. Several of the regents are in favor of having a. post graduate -course prepared under tho auspices of the university, to be taken by students in addition to the regular work of the different schools. The course, if decided on. will very likely include a course of lectures, which will be accessible to all students. Nothing has been done toward pecuring a site where the schools may consolidate. Until some legislation is secured no movement in that direction will ba made. WILDW00D IS BOOMING. Cloaliif? Announcement Followed by. Flue Operatic Weather.

Such exercise Is approved by many sensible persons and condemned by others. There are arguments upon both sides.
