Delivers Address Befors Young Men’s
McKinley Club on McKinley’s Birth
day—Lesson of Two 8words, Worn
as Major-General of Confederacy
and of United 8tatee.
Canton, O., Jan. 31.—Commemora
ting the natal day of the late Pres
ident McKinley, the Young Men’s Mc
Kinley Club of Canton tonight held a
notable banquet in the Auditorium,
Canton's new assembly hall of heroic
proportions. Vice * President - elect
Fairbanks occupied the central por
tion as chief guest of honor. Justice
William R. Day, friend, neighbor,
confidant of toe late president, was
master of ceremonies. To hie left
was Gen. Fltzhugh Lee, idol and hero
of the South. Vis-a-vis sat General
Black, one of the heroes of the civil
war and former commander-in-chief
of the Grand Army of the Republic.
On either side of these guests were
Governor Myron T. Herrick and Lieu
tenant-Governor Warren G. Harding,
of Ohio.
These were the speakers of the eve
ning. Among the listeners was Mrs.
McKinley.
“Mcivlnley and the South” was
Gen. Lee’s subject. He said:
Gen. Lee's Speech.
“Ohio it is true, is the state of his
nativity. Her citizens knew and
loved the living McKinley. Her soil
Is sacred with the grave which marks
the resting place of the dead McKin
ley; her people will cherish his lofty
character and his splendid services,
as long as the mountains kiss the
heavens, or the rivers roll to the sea.
“Ohio, however, cannot bound his
boundless fame, for on the wings of
renown his glory has been wafted to
all parts of the world.
'Sleep on, oh just and wise ruler.
Your birth was a blessing to your
county; your life a blessing to all its
inhabitants; your death a calamity,
which has excited the lamentations of
a world.
“The poison under the wing of the
American eagle which John Randolph
said he saw when lint pluming him
self for his splendid flight, has been
extracted, and all the sections tonight
hear the echo of the voice of the great
soldier, U. S. when on his
and Conf•fi
ddlers. U shall not be here to
witness it in ltd perfection, but I feel
within me that It Is to be so.
“‘Let us have peaoe.'
Under Two Flags.
“I have tried, in my own person,
to make good this expression of the
renowned soldier, and today there are
hanging in my library two swords
linked together, side by side—one
used as a major-general when a Con
federate soldier, the other worn as a
major-general of the United States
volunteers.
“The weapons of Grant and Lee
have been sheathed forever. The sa
bers of Sherman and Stuart have been
returned to their scabbards, and the
tents of Sherman and Joe Johnston
have been pitched forever on the eter
nal camping grounds, and all over this
land at this hour is shining the great
orb of peace in all the splendor of
undimmed majesty.
“May tho harmonious Invocations
from forty-flvo states rise to the heav
ens, sweep above the stars, invoking
country progress, peace and
prosperity; and let ail fervently pray
that when the veil of futurity shall bo
lifted there shall be revealed the up
ward and onward course of the Amer
ican Union; that a republic will bo
visible, representing a power and com
manding a respect that the mighty
armies of Caesar and Augustus never
won for tho Imperial eagles, and that
in it sectiou may never lift its hand
against section again; neither shall
they know war any more, and that
the reign of peace, unity and fraterni
ty shall be as lasting as the home of
tho stars, as everlasting as the foun
tains of the everlasting hills.”
Justice and Mrs. Day this afternoon
gave a luncheon In honor of General
Late in the afternoon the local
posts of the Grand Army of tho Re
public gave a post-room reception in
honor of Generals Lee and Black.
THE WEATHER IN FLORIDA.
Weather Bureau’s Official Record o
Low Temperature.
Jacksonville, Fla., Jan. 31.—Section
Director Mitchell ot the Weather Bu-,
reau, in his weekly crop and weather
report for the week ended yesterday,J
says: “The coldest weather during
any January since 1886, when the tem-j
perature fell to 15 degrees in this city,
occurred on the 26th and 27th. 1
following minimum temperatures
ing reported from weather bureau
tions in this state: Jacksonville,
degrees; Jupiter, 24 degrees; Tam]
22 degrees, and Pensacola, 18 degree#,
The damage by the cold wave
very serious, all unprotected vegei
bles being killed and citrus
over northern and central portion!
were frozen. Freezing conditions pi
vailed throughout the mainland
the state. At this time the exact di
age to groves can not be determU
but it is generally conceded thatW>st
foliage will be lost and some tender
growth damaged. It Is quite probable,
also, that many young trees
been materially damaged if not
ed over northern and central dli
Where groves were protected
results were very satisfactory,
cases both fruit and foliagi
saved. Practically the only
bles saved over northern and
districts were those under coverJ
damage was not so disastrous
the extreme southern district, otfpec-
ially where protective measures
supplemented by favorable local ^ on i
such as proximity to water."

A Sad Accident and Death.
A very sad death occurred recent
ly at the homo of Mr. and Mrs. D.
R. Crosby, who live near Milltown.
Their daughter Fannie, aged 18, was
suffering from a bone felon so that
she could not sleep, and while sitting
by the fire during the weary hours of
the night, a spark ignited her clothes,
from which she was burned so severe
ly she died about eighteen hours af
terward.
The remains were carried to the
Methodist cemetery, where the inter
ment took place In tho presence of a
number of friends who loved her dear
ly, for she had a most amiable dispo
sition. All sympathize deeply with
tho sadly bereavod family.—Wlllacoo-

HAIR NATURALLY ABUNDANT.
Hair preparations and dandruff cures,
ss a rule, are sticky or Irritating affairs
that do no earthly good. Hair, when not
diseased, grows naturally, luxuriantly.
Dandruff Is tho cause of nine-tenths of
all Ijftlr trouble, and dandruff l« caused
by a germ. The only way to care dand
ruff Is to kill the germ; and. so fr, the
only hair preparation that will po ; itlvely
