PROGRAM A BRILLIANT ONE. ft Interested and Delighted a Typical Audience. (By Miss Laura Gaston.) The stirring "Rienzi" overture formed the initial number of the brilliant program which interested and delighted a typical May Festival audience from stare to finish. It was received with enthusiastic applause, which

died away only with the opening Ftrains of Goldmark's exquisite love dream. Bewitching music surely, tender, beseeching, fraught with passion, tinged with pathos, and oh, so teautifully played! Other orchestral offerings were the Italian "Serenade" by Hugo Wolf and Tochaikowsky's Slavic March, the latter played with a verve and fire which carried everything before it. Orchestra is Splendid. All in all the orchestra shows the Fame splendid unity and precision, technical skill and finish of details, which distinguished it under Thomas direction, and Mr. Stock has more than shown his fitness for the position that he holds.

Canton, O., May 29 The funeral service this afternoon of Mrs. McKinley, beginning at 2 o'clock, was simple and brief. Dr. Buxton, present pastor of the First M. E. church, and Dr. Holmes, former pastor, had charge. Four musical . selections were sung at the service. The music, the same as that used at the funeral of the late President, "Beautiful Isle of Somewhere," "L.ead, Kindly Light," and "Nearer, my God, to Thee," were rendered by a quartet. A duet, "The Angel," by Rubenstein, was also sung. President Roosevelt and party arrived here at 12:43 and proceeded to the residence of Justice William R. Day, then to the McKinley residence. In the funeral cortege to the cemetery the President's carriage, followed the family carriage; next in order were officials representing the State and the city. The ritual services at the vault in West Lawn were brief. President Roosevelt immediately thereafter went to his train and left for Indianapolis. Vice President Fairbanks arrived last evening, and is at the home of Justice and Mrs. Day. Mrs. Fairbanks, on account of illness, was unable to come. Governor Harris and other State officers came on a special train. Banked with flowers on every eide, whose fragrance filled not only the room in which the body of Mrs. McKinley lay, but the entire house was wafted as an incense to the throng of people waiting in line to enter the residence. The casket was passed by

thousands Tuesday afternoon. The

people of Canton paid their tribute the best way they could, since, by re

quest, it had been Cenied them the

privilege of any funeral decoration in the city or any general municipal J

pnrticipation in the ceremonies. It was estimated that 8,000 people passed through the McKinley home in the time allotted. It Had been stated that admission to the home would be from 3 to 5 o'clock. At 1:30, however Women and children lined up in front of the house waiting to pass by the casket. The doors were opened at 2:30 and from that time until 5:30 the aged, some of whom had known Mrs. McKinley from childhood; the middleaged and a throng of school children paid silent but sorrowful tribute to the woman they loved. Mothers carrying babes on their arms waited two hours in line for their turn to pass through the house. The casket rests in the room and in the same piace where the body of President McKinley was placed while in the family house. Hanging on the walls in the room where the body was reposing are photographs of President McKinley ;and Senator Hanna and framed documents received by the President during his illustrious career.

HISTORIAN , FAILED TO APPEAR IN THE RUSH CIRCUIT COURT AND JUDGE SPARKS DECLARED HIS BOND FORFEITED.

New Castle, Ind., May 29 Were It not for the fact that George Hazzard, the celebrated Henry county historian, failed to arrive in Rushville last Saturday, Charles W. Mouch, who went his securitj", would not be defendant in the $500 suit instituted by Prosecutor Barnard for the collection of Hazzard's bond. When Hazzard was arrested, charged with forgery by Henry Brown of Mooreland, he appealed to Mr. Mouch's generosity. His

request was granted and Hazzard was released from custody. Mr. Mouch went his security, and Hazzard went his way. Hazzard was called in the Rush circuit court on Saturday. He failed to appear, was defaulted and his bond has been declared forfeited. Prosecutor Barnard then drew the complaint against Mr. Mouch and filed it. When the forgery case was 'called for trial here, Hazzard, through his attorney, notified the court that he was hunting for an important witness and asked a continuance. This was granted and Hazzard is still hunting.

and which is revolting in the extreme. During the recent absence of Dr. Waggoner, United States government inspector from the city and while Dr. Charles S. Bon1, city health olllcer was in Washington, there was a carcass of an animal butchered, sold and consumed by the people of Richmond which showed all the known symptoms of tuberculosis. The animal was slaughtered In the Holzapfel house on Liberty avenue. The whole affair is an eloquent argument that live stock inspection will not under any circumstances meet the needs of the city, and that it is impossible for a live stock inspector to judge cattle on foot, and furthermore that it is impossible for a live stock inspector without any power back of him to catch diseased meats even though he knows they are in bad condition. He has no power to condemn them, post mortem. Approved on Foot. The "stag" as the animal was eanef was driven into the Holzanfel plant, killed and hung. Oscar Paddock, city live stock inspector, had passed favorably on the animal on foot, but on a post mortem examination he found

that ore lung was badly diseased, in

dicating tuberculosis. He could not condemn the carcas3 and went to the
