HIS FAVORITE SONG.
Hiss Katherine Hunt! ngton Sings “t<ouißt

Lou, Lou, I love you—

Thia is the chorus of the song which
President McKinley most likes to hear.
The chief executive has not as yet indi

■words or the air to which they are sung
or both. It is hinted that the singer has

•Miss ivatnerine Huntington, a canton
belle who has aspirations toward the
stage. After that Miss Huntington was
a frequent visitor to the McKinley
home, and she never left without being
asked to sing “Louisiana Lou” at least
once. The president learned the air,
too, and added a bass chorus.
Not long ago, when the president was
in Canton for the purpose of visiting
his mother, Miss Huntington dropped
in, and he at once suggested that she
should sing “Louisiana Lou” again.
“It is now a national time, ” the chief
executive is reported as saying. “I hear
it everywhere I go, but no one, Miss
Kate, has ever sung it as sweetly as
you. ”

LITTLE MONEY IN MEAT.
How Restaurant Proprietors Suffer From
the Make Up of Mena Cards.
“If all restaurant proprietors, ” said
one of them, who has been well known
as the owner of a Broadway eating
place for the last ten years, “could on
ly induce their customers to eat less
meat they not only would make more
money, but they would give better sat
isfaction all round. In the first place,
there is little or no money for the res
taurant keeper in selling boiled or roast
meats. It costs too much to handle them
and requires too much time to prepare
them and serve them as they should be
to leave any profit for the man who
does it.
“And in the second place the patrons
order meats when they would much
prefer something else. That is the fault
of the proprietor. He arranges his menu
wrong. The small steaks, the chops and
the cutlets and all the other meats ‘to
order’ are placed too conspicuously on
the bill of fare. A man’s eye is bound
to catch that list first, whether the man
wants meat or not. Being in a hurry,
as 99 men out of 100 are in the country,
he orders tho first attractive dish he
finds, and the result is he gets some
thing he does not care particularly
about and something which the restau
rant man does not care particularly
about selling to him.
“Last winter the man who runs the
restaurant in the national k?ase of rep
resentatives tried an experiment which
turned out remarkably well. He delib
erately set to work to lure his patrons
away from the .‘steaks and chops to or
der’ column, and so instead of printing
it in bold black letters in the middle of
the bill of fare he tucked it away down
in the lower right hand corner and
placed at the top of the card a list of
the dishes that were most profitable to
him. They proved not only to be mest
profitable to him, but most satisfactory
to his customers, and instead of using
six loins of meat a day, as he had done
before, he used only one and a half and
supplied the same number of guc is. •’ —

FINDS SLAYER OF FATHER.
Joint Ray Ho* h \ a t For a
’L’riiue ( ruunil,t»4 Ajjo.
Columbia, 3. O , Oct. 4.—A man who
for years has been known to Rock Hili
as John W. Cheatham, has been ar
rested in that town for the murder of
John J. Ray in Wiikesboro, N. 0., in
1873. Aided by a detective, a posthu
mous sou of ihe murdered man has been
for years upon the track of his father’s
slayer. He came to Rock Hill and
swore out a warrant against Cheatham,
whose real name is Aaron Miller, and
who was a boy of 15 when the crime
was committed.
One day in March. 1873, Cheatham
and another boy became involved in a
row in front of the residence of J. J.
Ray, one or the most substantial citi
zens of the town. Ray came out and
interfered, scolding Cheatham, who
was standing behind his horse. The
boy, reaching around his horse, shot
Ray dead, and then mounting, fled.
The man who had him arrested was
born three months later. A man named
Sanford has been working in Rock Hill
as a detective. Cheatham had coms
there after many years of wanderings,
and in some way Sanford had traced
him. When satisfied of the man’s iden
tity ho communicated with young John
Ray. who arrived in Rock Hill, and
swearing out a warrant for his father’s
murderer, had him arrested.
Cheatham took the matter very coolly,
but declined to talk. He went back to
the scene of his youthful crime without
requisition papers.
