SPENT THE DAY QUIETLY

PRiini; r A'D MRS. lit! JW SAW FEW CALLERS YESTERDAY. Took a ( arrinitp Ride ThronRh Tart of Xew York and Trip Ip n h River Heeoan ir l hy Few People. NEW YORK. April 29. -President Mc-Kin-ley spent the day quietly, adhering to his announced purpose that the visit to this city should be a pleasure, and not a business trip. He will, according to present arrangements, return to Washington on Monday morning. It Is quite probable that he will remain in the capital only a few days, for he contemplates taking another short trip, although his plans In this regard are not fully matured. Thi! morning the presidential party was depleted by the absence of Secretary Long, who went to Boston over night. Secretary Gage was not with the President, as he was stayyig at the Holland House and did not nrt the chief executive. After br ikfast with Mrs. McKinley and Mr. and Mrs. Abner McKinley at the Hotel Manhattan the President received two callers, Secretary Bliss and Fred W. Holls, one of the commissioners to the peace conference at The Kiie. As the morning wore on the hotel filled up with all sorts and conditions of NtSJ Yorkers anxious to see the President for one cause or another, but these Assistant Secretary Cortelyou met and satisfied with the often repeated assurance that the President was here for rest. Rear Admiral Philip called and paid his respects. A small crowd of women, children and reporters gathered outside the ladies' entrance to the hotel and a few minutes after 11:30 o'clock the President and Mrs. McKinley came out and stepped Into their closed carriage. A cheer was raised and hats w ire taken off. Mr. and Mrs. Abner McKinley got into the same carriage. Three other carriages, all closed, followed. They contained Assistant Secretary Cortelyou, a stenographer, Surgeon D. P. ML Riley, of the United States navy. Mr. Hawk, proprietor of the Hotel Mannattan. Mrs. Hawk, Command r J. D. G. Kelly of the United Stales navy, chiefof MafT to Rear Admiral 1 hilip, ana W. C. Brown, businc uc of Abner McKinley. Tne morning was glorious and warm. The carriages lumbered slowly up Fifth avenue, passing many open turnouts occupied by society people and others out for an airing, Lut being noticed by none. The procession wound into and through Central Park, where the signs of early spring were evident in the bursting foliage. From the park the carriages went up Riverside Drive, where the tew nurses, cnildren and morning Mirs never turned from their lazy enjoyment of the view before them to scrutinize the four carriages that pa.-s.l on the driveway behind them. The President had the windows of his carriage open and leaned out, appreciating the scenery. At noon a roar as if of guns in the midst of a salute bellowed out from the Palisades across the Hudson. Fight or ten regular reports were heard and until huge clouds of earth rose up from the Palisades no one quite realized that the ovation was only the work cf mn blasting away the rocks. As the party passed the tomb of General Grant, which the President had not visited since he. dedicated it two rears ago. two officers ran out and raided their hats Iney were the rirst in the whole traverse of the city who had recognized the distinguished guests. At the One-hundrod-and-twenty-nlnth-street dock on the North river. Ensign Spar. I'. S. N.. commanding the navy yard tug Nina, received the party. A ireiKht train on the New York t'entrai tracks got Ftalled right in front of the carriages and blocked the entrance to the dock shed, whre the Nina lay moored. A gang of laborers gathered and several of the party left their carriages. The freight train had iost its engine, hut aftr several minutes" delay the train was moved and the party proceeded into the shed. Ex-Secretary KMss and Miss Bll?is Joined the party and, after shaking hands with few laborers. the Presic.nt and Mrs. McKinley boarded the Nina, followed by the others. The Nina's whistle screerhed. Abner McKinley promptly put on a yachting cap and all hands proce4led to make themselves comfortabie for the trip as the Nina sheered off and swung out into midstream, heading 'ip the Hudson. The party went up the river as far as Sing Sing and returned at 4.2".. President and Mrs. McKinley went directly tn th hotel, where they dined with o!onel and Mrs. Myron T. Herrick. of Ukveland. During the evening many local politicians sent their cards up. The only persons admitted to the President's rooms were John Sloan. Seth IjOW, Mr. Bmkaw and Jam- s A Webb. These calls were purely personal. The President retired at 11:10 o'clock. It is understood that the President expressed entire satisfaction with events in he Philippines, os reported to him to-day through dispatches from General Otis and the Associated Press. BURNING OF SAM HOSE. Mr. IV. Y. Atkinson, Vife of a Former Governor, DeMorlben the Scene. ATLANTA. Ga.. April 29 Mrs. W. Y. Atkinson, whose husband, former Governor Atkinson, made an earnest effort to prevent the burning- of Sam Hose, has written a letter to a friend in Atlanta telling of the occurrence. Mrs. Atkinson says: "The occasion reminded me of the Sunday afternoon in Mexico City just before a bull fight, only here it was much more intense in bloodthiistiness. There was a certainty of death the moment the horrible creature's foot rested on Newnan's soil, for a crowd of armed men brought him here. Had the walls of the Coliseum been around that burnirsr stake and its writhing human form, a scene of old Rome would have been perfectly reproduced in this community, and doubtless the spirits of the ancient Caesars VOuld have applauded their apostles of the nineteenth century uu 'the tire's thick flame shot a dismal glare.' While we feel no punishment could be too severe for that criminal, it is generally deplored that a death so barbarous was given him in this ce.mmunity. The possible injury to the boys and young men is inconceivable." Dr. Silverman on 'Modern Barbarism NEW YORK. April 29. Rev. Dr. Joseph Silverman Hebrew) preached to-day in the Temple Emanuel on the subject of "Modern Barbarism." He began by briefly relating the recent lynebings in Georgia and th n said in part: "What an awful and sorry spectacle our country thus presents to the student of history and to the world at large. Here we have been protesting against the barbarities of the Spanish government and have carried on a war in the name of humanity and justice, while within our own borders such nameless torture and terrible persecution are permitted to hold sway. There is something radically wrong with the machinery of our government when the mere recital of a few doggerel verses at a private banquet can stir up the feelings of two nations and the interest cf the world, can be made the matter of oven a brief diplomatic interview and the subject of a Cabinet session, while this wanton, brutal torture and slaughter of men without triai is brushed aside by the President of the United States as a matter with which the national government has no concern. When the state officers connive at the butchery practiced under their own Jurisdiction and indirectly condone this manifest violation of law and order and the national government is still silent, then it is time for the people to ris up and demand an investigation into these horrors of summary execution. If the state authorities are Incapable of putting down lynch law and forcing respect for regular proceedings, then some way ought to be found for instituting a congressional invetigation into these barbaric practices and for providing remedial legislation, as was done in respect to the Ku-Klux immediately after the civil war." Death In Brookr'i (onmand. WASHINGTON. April ML General Brooke notifies the War Department of the following deaths in his command at Santiago: Privates W. Dats. Company C. Second Vo.unteers. dysentery: William De laughlln. Company A. Second Volunteers, malarial fever; Harry C. Shanabrook, Company A. Fifth Irfantrv. typhoid: James Davis. Company C.

Surgeon General Sternberg has received a

report from MaJ. J. H. Hysell, chief surgeon of Clenfuegos, saying that since General Snyder's arrival with the Fourth Tennessee in that department, eariy in December, there have been located there three regiments of infantry and a battalion of volunteer engineers. In all this number there have been but twelve deaths. The health of the troops was better than in the camps in the United Sutea,

VINEGAR AND YEAST. Tr-.iM That Will Control 05 Per Cent, of the Country's Output. CHICAGO, April 29. The Tribune says: "After the middle of May there will be but one vinegar factory in Chicago, the output of which is not controlled by the American Vinegar Company, which is being financed by Henry Clews & Co.. of New York. Four Chicago companies have given options on the purchase of their factories, as follows: Spielman Brothers Company, the W. H. Bunge Company, William Henning & Co. and the Prussing Vinegar Company. The estimate! value of the four Chicago plants is $1,000,000. After their absorption by the American Vinegar Company that corporation will, it is said, control y5 per cent, of tho vinegar and yeast output in the United States. Forty factories in various rts of the country in territory extending from Omaha to Boston and from Dubuque to Iouisville will be in the combination. In all these factories yeast is an important by-product. The consolidation of all the interests uill terminate a four yean' war which has resulted disastrously to yeast prices. Yeast for some time has been selling at 10 cents a pound, while the cost of manufacture is about 18 cents. It is expected th3 price of yeast will be raised to the latter figure. The future price of vinegar will he leas affected and may be neither raised nor lowered. Some thirty factories in the country will he closed. In all case the trade will be supplied from the nearest point of manufacture, saving much in freight. The annual vinegar output 19 700,000 barrels. The Floor Mill "Comblnf." NEW YORK, April 29.-The Herald tomorrow will say: Articles of incorporation of the United States Flour Milling Company filed in New Jersey yesterday mark the consolidation of nineteen of the largest mills, including those in Duluth.

SITUATION AT BLUEF1ELDS. Americans Have losed Their Stores and Hoisted -Old Glory." BLUEFIEL.DS. Nicaragua. April 22. For three days the American merchants, as a measure of protection, have been flying the United States flag over their places of busIneaa. Sinre April 19 all of the American firms doing business have closed. This morning Governor Torres, through the chief of police, ordered at once all who were fiying the United States flag to explain why they had raised the emblem of liberty. It s- i ins that a former decree or proclamation issued many years ago makes it an offense to fly "old glory." except on holidays and Sundays. Th merchants informed the chief that as a threat had been made to seize their Koods they had closed their places of husiness and raised the flag, believing that under its folds they were safe. Having hfn checkmated by the merchants in his attempt to make a forced payment of duties demanded, General Torres yesterday had all the goods and merchandise in the government warehouse at Bluefield? belonging to those involved in the demand etsed. The cruiser Detroit arrived and anchored thre miles off the Bluff this afternoon. She brought from Greytown Joaquin Sanzon, the Nicaraguan minister of foreign atfairs; Mr. Merry. I'nited States minister to Nicaragua, and Consul Sorsby. The American officials are aboard the ship in conference on the issues involved. They will rom ashore to-morrow to meet the Nicaraguan officials. WON'T GO ON THE STAGE Mrs. Georsre, However. Says She 'Will Lecture on Womun'i Rights. CANTON. O., April 23. Mrs. Anna E. George, when asked to-day as to her future plans, said: "Go on the stage? Never! But I will lecture on woman's rights. I believe in woman's rights. I believe women ought to vote and that a jury ought to be half women. I think a. woman has just as much it to make something out of herself as a man." W hile taiKing a telegram was handed to her and after reading it she said: "Oh, it's another of those offers. This is an inquiry about whether I will go on the stage, it is from Cincinnati. Requests have come from Cincinnati. PittsburK. Columbus and I don't know where else. None of them has been answered. I think I will lecture on woman's rights. I will do whatever Mr. Sterling and Mr. Watty think I ought to do." Several offers of marriage have been sent her. but they are all ignored. She intimates, however, she woutd not be adverse to trying another matrimonial venture, but won ci not commit herself on that point. John C Welty. who was chief counsel for Mrs. George, will likely be a candidate for Governor of Ohio. He is one cf the influential Democrats of Stark county and is wealthy. Before the George trial was finished it was statfd if Mr. Welty won he would stand for the nomination on the Democratic ticket. PARIS IS Rl 1NF.H. That Tn to Say. Ita C'onkn Don't I.Ike the Wuy Things Are Going. Ixr.don Pall Mall Gazette. A cooking exhibition now in progress in thp rooms of the Societe d'Horticulture has given to eminent cordons bleus the opportunity of bewailing the degenerate days on which gastronomy has fallen. The authors of those heartfelt lamentations are no less important culinary personages than the chefs of Baron Alphonse de Rothschild and of the late Baroness de Hirsch. The tale these gentleman unfold is a sad one. The culinary art. they declare, is now traversing a crisis, the principal cause of which is the Irregular hours at which people take their meala Kven the most distinguished members of society are now totally ignorant of. or supremely indifferent to, the art of eating. Formerly dinner was one of the principal events of life. In properly conducted houses the guests were expected to arrive punctually, and by the time they were at the table the cook was ready for them and they were ready for the feast. Nowadays a dinner is announced for 7:30. but it may be 8:2) or even 9 o'clock before it begins. By the time a start is made the rotis are overdone, the sauces have thickened beoirt recognition, the notaes lies have coagulnted. and unkindest cut of all it is the cook who is blamed. Bat this is not all. When people do consent to sit down to dinner they conduct themselves in the most deplorable fashion. They do not appreciate their food, they? bolt it. The fifteen courses of which the dinner at the Baron Alphonse de Rothschild's nightly consist are dispatched in forty minutes a crime! Misojrynists WM BOt be surprised to learn that the ladies are largely r sponsible for this state of things. Formerly they used to '5 o'clock" punctually at 4. and a cup of tea and a cake sufficed them. At present they begin "5-o'clocking" at 6, and are still hard at it at 7. They drink choeo.ate and sweet wines, and consume incredible quantities of sandwiches, foie gras and cold nv i's Having spoiled their appetites this way. it If only natural that they should take but a languid interest in dinner Happily for the cordon bleu there are still countries in which his1 taients are esteemed, and he himelf is treated with proper consideration. There are still noblemen in England and Russia who appreciate a good dinner, and take their time over it when they can find a genius to cook it for them. And thin genius, the two authorities observed with patriotic pride, can only be a Frenchman, for the race is as supreme as ever In th" art of cooking, though none but the foreigner does Justice to the fact.

Mail advices from Manila received to-day are full of interesting incidents of the fighting before Malabon. President Schurman, of Cornell University, a member of the Philippine commission, had a narrow escape from death while with General Wheaton's brigade. He was sitting on a trench when a large rebel force opened fire. A stray shot warned him to seek cover, which he did by speedily falling into the trench, rfe lay there more than an hour while the Filipinos sent Mauser bullets singing over his head. An occasional bullet would graze the top of the trench and shower the college man with dirt. The )(i.r-,s w. re finalh dislodged and President Schurman returned to Manila. UETU'EY'S !IISSI.G ME.

He said in an interview: "Why shouldn't I furnish arm to the Filipinos? There is money in it. I'm a British subject, and it is legitimate business. Did not Dewry and Wildman give Aguinaido rilles in the beginning? Wildman has ben sending out all manner of stories about me. I told him before leaving Hong-Kone that I would continue to sell arms as long as 1 felt so inclined." What Antl-lmper!allt Want. BOSTON.

Richards said he received the notes at the Newmarket race SOLDIKRS ROOMKD J ( KSOWIUE. Client Nearly ."m.MH Per Month In tlie City Store. Atlanta Journal. "Did the soldiers help Jacksonville?" "Well, 1 should say so." remarked a citizen of that place. "First and last." he said, "we had about .V.000 soldiers camped in and near Jacksonville. It is estimated that they spent in the city not less than iVK.000 a month for several months. That is a reasonable estimate. I think, because these solJiers spent more than an average of $11 a month during their stay. This money was put In actual circulation and everybody got some of it, from the peddler on the street to the merchant prince. The retail trade, was something great and the saloon trade was simply enormous. A shoe man who had a little store no owns three fine shoe stores and is going to build a handsome opera house. 1 know of a small hotel which cleared $15,000 in that city of hotels. Everybody made money and many peopie got rich. I know of a wholesale firm which sold government supplies. At various times they got checks for $lfO.Oj, $po.Oo, JlTo.ono. That was doing business right along. An Italian had a littie hole-in-the-wall where he sold pies and sandwiches. He moved out to the big camp and opened up on a larger scale, dealing in luncheons, hot coffee, etc. Now; he owns the swellest restaurant in Jacksonvi. . with beveled mirrors and m irh.e-topped tables, and enploys six cashiers. Yes, sir; make no mistake. The soldiers were worth millions of dollars to Jacksonville, and the money they spent will help the city for years to come, because hundreds of thousands of it were put in permanent improvements and many lines of legitimate business." Why Amerieaoa Go to England to Lire Julian Ralph, in Harper's Magazine. The first reason w hy rich Americans leave home to live in England is because social conditions there are fixed and reliable, and because rich and poor alike do as they please there with a degree of liberty that is unknown anywhere else on the globe. It is true that certain rich men and nob'emen take advantage of this liberty and shut themselves in their parks to spend Sundays in feasting, riding, dancing and outdoor sports of lively and noisy kinds, and that no one knows it at the time except their servants. On this account it is said by some narrow-minded critics in America that our rich who stay in England do so because they can give Sunday concerts on a lawn beside the Thames, or can dance and enjoy music hall talent in their country houses, but that is too microscopic a definition of the liberty of which I speak, and too discreditable to our emigrants for me to adopt it. It is simply a fact that must le thrown into the balance with the rest of the conditions this amarlng freedom, this absence of a prying preas with its defilement of the privacy of men's homes and lives, this making the home a castle, and inclosing very garden with a high ton' wall.

The English are a much less nervous, more even-tempered, patient people than we, and their work-folk give them plenty of opportunity to practice these virtues. The service in the large department stores is like that at home brisk, prompt, and red to meet any want but It is very different in the smaller shops. Wherever men tinker, mend, make, or trade in a email way, they are maddening to deal with. There is an American woman in London who, after repeated disappointments, at last got a plumber into her house to look at a leaking pipe- She turned the key in the door and pocketed it. "Now," safd she, "I've got you here at last, and I mean to have you do this work. You can send for tools and help by one of my maids, but out of this house you don't go until this pipe Is repaired." It MeJM to me that the cobblers and menders of every sort are always annoy d by a call for their services. They do not resent It; they are polite enough. But they adopt a troubled expression of face, ard put you off a day or a week, and talk of being dreadfully rushed, though you may have come upon them smoking and reading a paper in the doorway. It Is that they are slow and easygoing, and dislike being hurried. But one comes in time to be used to their delays. There even comes a time when an American adapts himself to the slow gait, long stops, and infrequent trains of the London underground, and can set out into the great world of the metropolis on a 'bus with the same philosophy that a passenger by a Bailing vessel waits upon wind and tide. Daily Idle of the limy Aetreas. Viola Alien, in Ladies' Home Journal. The actress has little time for social life. The more successful she is the less leisure she has and the greater inroads her work makes upon her time and strength. It is often a genuine regret to have to decline much of the delightful hospitality extended to her. but this is a denial she must urge upon herself according to her own good judgment, whether it must always be wnrk first and play afterward. She has no right to come to her evening's work fagged and tired from a round of teas and calls. She injures herself and her art. and she is not dealing fairly with hrr audience. She is up late every night, and although I do not believe in wasting a whole morning in bed, she cannot have more than sufficient sleep if she breakfasts at 10, and if she is wire she will take a rest before her early dinner. She must remember that her health and strength are everything to her. Losses hy Fire. STUBGIS. Mich.. April 29 The Hotel Thornton burned to the ground to-day. The Sturgis.

The Pyramid Pile Cure cures all forms of pil without one particle of pain. This desirable point ic not obtained by the use of injurious opiates which simply deaden and paralyze the nerves of the part and make matters worse in the long run. But it is. done solely by its remarkable healing and soothing effects. And while it thus gives immediate relief, at the same time the disease is not merely checked but a radical cure is accomplished. And the point we want to make clear is that all this Is done without a particle of pain. This fact Is one great reason for the popularity of the Pyramid Pile Cure, and constitutes one very great difference between it and almost any other treatment for piles. Every kind of surgical operation for piles Is excruciatingly paintul besides endangering the life of the patient and In most cades is not to be compared with the Pyramid Pile Cure neither In making successful cures without pain nor in cheapness and safety. The Pyramid ptie cure hag been before the public so long and its merits recognized by too many peopie to allow it to be classed with the many calves, suppositories, pills, etc.. and you run no risk in trying it, as It is often the case with untried preparations. If you are ever troubled with any form of piles or rectal disease do not forget the Pyramid Pile Cure. Prepared by the Pyramid Drug Co., of Marshall. Mich., and sold by druggists at 50 cents per package.
