All the members of the Cabinet had been heard from. Senator Hanna and many of his associates of the Union Club, of Cleve land,. Joined la a message expressing their etitisfsction.

"WILLIAM McKlNLEY." The President was frequentl interrupt ed by callers, many of them "being oAi friends who have known him from child hoods The President Invited the1 groups Inside and thanked them for their fer vid greetings. His strong, square face maintained lis characteristic dignity and composure and yet he looked very happy. His replies avoids any reference to the personal triumph Involved. Mrs. McKlnlej recehed many lady call ers. She showed no signs of fatigue and she shared In the general happiness pre vailing. The Presidential party left at 1:30 this afternoon for Washington, going over the Pennsyhanla road by the regular train due in Washington at 7.44 A. JL .Thurs day. The two private cars "Olj mpla" and "Mercutlo" were attached to the train for the aooommodatlon of the party. The trip is likely to partake of the character of a triumphal tour. On arrhlns to morrow morning th President will give early attention to the completion of his message to Congress. He has been gfving some attention to It here, sketching It out in the rough, so that the essential fea tures are well nigh complete. Four years ago the election was Imme diately followed by much Cabinet com ment, but there Is an entire absence of such comment now, as it appears to be accepted that the present Cabinet -Rill remain, at least until the new Adminis tration begins, and thero Is no Intimation of a change, even then. The President's Intimates say he is hardly less gratified over the election of a Congress which will be In political sympathy than, Tie is of the suoeess of the Presidential tickot. The Trip an Ovation. PITTSBURG. Nov. 7. President Mc Kinley's trip from Canton toward the National capital today has been one con tinuous ovation to the twice-elected head of the Nation. At every stop there have been great outpourings of people, busi ness has been suspended, and many fac tories along tho line have added their thousands of workers to those who have joined In enthusiastic greetings. The President has appeared at each stop, ahuklnc hands from the rear platform and making- short speeches at the most Important towns. Mrs. McKlnley has re ceived hor share of popular tribute, men and women struggling to present flowers to her. Patriotism, tho flag and the vol unteer's uniform have figured every where, and the trip has been In the na ture of a trlumpnal journey to the cap ital. The start from Canton was made at 1:35 F. M.. amid the boom of cannon, the screech of steam whistles and the. clam orous well wishes of the President's townspeople. Mr. and Mrs. McKlnley oc cupied the private car Oljmpla at the rear of the train, giving a broad platform from which the President could greet the crowd and address them. The Presiden tial car had been beautifully decorated with yellow chrysanthemums, bound with ribbons of red, white and blue, giving a wealth of color. An interesting Incident oocurred soon after the train left Canton. Many ot those on the regular coaches were anx ious to greet the President, and he con sented to see a delegation from Alliance, in his own district. Ho met the party on the platform, grasping each hand and talking' familiarly of the struggle and victory at Alliance. One homy-banded veteran stood back In the crowd until the President spied him out with the familiar greeting: "Well. Tom, I'm glad to see you." The President, remarked that GOO major ity had hitherto been the high-water mark at Alliance, but npw they had rollea up SOCK "Yea, and the factory boys have gone wild." was the enthusiastic answer. "When the whistle sounded this morning, every man fell into line, with Tom Rus sell on horseback, four girls in white leading- the procession, and the town was crazy when wo left." The President laughingly acknowledged the heartfelt manifestation of his neighbors and bade the delegation good-bye. Speech at Alliance. The President mads his first speech of the day when the train arrived at Al liance. The town had turned out en. masse to meet him with bands and ban ners. Workmen from the potteries at Sebrlng came in their aprons, bearing transparencies showing .their majorities. The crowd surged up to the train, to the imminent danger of those In front. When the President appeared there were deafening cheers, to which he bowed and smiled acknowledgment and then added: "My fellow-citizens: I have not failed to observe the verdict of Alliance given on yesterday (loud, continued applause) and I cannot refrain from expressing to jou In passing my very great apprecia tion of this vote of encouragement and support from my old friends and neigh bors of Stark County. (Great applause.) I observe that majorities rise with pros perity, and that the American, people never fall to support the flag; I thank you -and bid you- good afternoon." (Tre mendous applause and cheering.) A short distance further on the train stopped at Sebrlng, & new town, with huge potteries built up. It is said, by the fostering of the American pottery Inter est Business was suspended and the workmen poured forth to join In the Jiuzzahs. A big banner announced. "Se brlng. two to one for" McKlnley." The President waved - acknowledgments, but did not speak. In the big factory town of Balem, the smoke of many -stacks hung over the city and the myriad of worklngmen and women gave the place the aspect of a hive of industry. A vast concourse of people Used the tracks. The tops of fnelght-aars were used as points of vant age, little girls bore big American flags The Arum corps was uniformed-as United States Volunteers. Ladles struggled to throw bunche. of flowers toward Mrs. McKlnley. A younc woman kept crylns "Bryan" In defiant tones, but .her voice. was faint amid theTdln. The screech of the factory whistles was deafenlnr. The President bowed bis thanks, and when order was partly secured, ho said. In part: "You are hero to celebrate a victory won, not by a single party, but by the people of all parties. (Great applause.) I go back to -my public duties at the cap ital encouraged by your confidence, but decpo conscious of the grave responsibil ities which your action of yesterday im poses upon me. I can only ask of all my countrymen their sympathy and support in the solution of the great problems that rest upon7 the United States, and I am sure that all of us will humbly petition the guidance of that divine Ruler who has never failed this Government through all Its vicissitudes from its beginning to the present hour." At Leetonla and Columbiana there were- like outbursts, crowds besieging the President's car. No speeches were made, but the President reached down an,d shook many hands. A drizzling rain began to fall, but this did not deter trig crowds from turning out at East Palestine, Enon Valley, New Galilee and 'New Brighton. A Parade In New York, NEW YORK, Nov. 7. More than 3000 brokers, members of the stock, produce f and maritime and cotton exchanges, pa raded this afternoon In honor of McKln ley. A warm reception was accorded them on Braadway, where the parade was disbanded. ROOSCVEIiT'S STATEMENT. The "Vntlon Has Indorsed McKlnley Policy. NEW YORK, Nov. 7. Governor Roose velt, although h did not retire until aft er midnight, was up In good season today at his home In Oyster Bay. After break fast, he looked over many dispatches of congratulation. The Governor said: "I rejoice beyond measure over the way the vote has gone. President Mc Klnley had to face the most serious and complicated problems that have been faced by any President since Lincoln, or by .any President a generation before I Lincoln. I do not see how there could have been any material Improvement in 1 the way he has faced and solved each of them. It, therefore, seems to be a per- f fectly fair test of the way our people are willing to back up a man who has done such difficult and all-important work for the Nation. I think that the supreme f capacity for successful self-go eminent In a Nation Is clearly shown by the struggle through which the Nation has just passed. "To have failed to Indorse President McKlnley would hove been a. calamity compared only to a failure to indorse President Lincoln In 1864. All far-sighted and patriotic Americano feel deeply thankful the way In whlc'i the American people, as a whole, have shown thelc good sense and absolute adherence to the cause of honesty and National honor. "Again, it should be a matter of the deepest gratification at the way those Democrats stood by sound money. They, having joined hands with their Repub lican brethren, share the credit for a vic tory which represents far more than any paYtlsan victory." Governor Rooaevelt said he expected to remain at hfs home In Oyster Bay for a couple of dajs, when he would go to Al bany to resume his official duties. SENATOR. HANNA'S STATEMENT. A Triumph, for the Principles of Good Government. CLEVELAND, O., Nov. 7. Senator Han. na today gae to the .Associated Press the following statement on the Tesult of yesterday's election: "The result Is more than satisfactory. It expresses, a continued feeling of Amex. leans for the Republican party which Js very gratifying to all friends of this Ad mlnlstra'tlon. It assures the continuance of present prosperous conditions. It Is a triumph for the principles of good govern ment over the heresies of Bryanlsm, the product of a combination of elements ot irresponsibility and incompetency, it strengthens the -very foundations of the Government. It is a rebuke of the dema gogy of the opposition, and a clear, cool diagnosis of a situation which was for a time clouded by their methods of evasion and misrepresentation. Above all It gives to every American absolute confidence In the good judgment of the people and their readiness and ability to protect their own Interests by deciding aright those great Questions which, of necessity, come up In a government by the people. While in the main our predictions hJWre been ful filled, I may say that In many cases our expectations have been exceeded. "M. A. HANNA." HANNA AND THE PRESIDENCY. He Says He Has Had Enough Politics to Snit An one. CLEVELAND, Nov. 7. Speaker Hender son, at a recent dinner, surprised Eome of his hosts during- the table talk by tell ing them that Senator Hanna' s campaign tour of the Northwest had so stirred up that section of tho country that the Sen ator was being talked about there as a Presidential -possibility four years hence. Senator Hanna was asked today whether he had heard of any such sentiment in the Northwest. "Yes," he answered, "I have heard rumors to that effect," At some of the meetings I addressed In the Northwest cries were raised about the next Presi dency, which I could not help hearing. There has been some talk of the char acter you mentioned. But I don't want to be the next President after McKlnley. 1 won't have anything to do with It, 1 have had enough of politics and pub Ho life to suit anyone." ' "White House Wires Overloaded. WASHINGTON, Nov. 7. The White House wires were loaded with messages of congratulation today from friends all over the world. A large number of con gratulatory letters bear last night's post mark from near-bx points. All of these telegrams and letters, as- far as the ad dresses of the senders are known, will be answered. The President, Mrs. Mc Klnley, Mr. Cortelyou and Dr. Rixey will reach Washington tomorrow on the regu lar train over the Pennsylvania road, and .n all probability they will not again re turn to Canton before next Spring or Summer. Better Than Hanna Expected. CLEVELAND, O., Nov. 7. Senator Hanna did not reach his office until aft er noon today, having remained up until a very late hour last night hearing the election returns. Mr. Hanna found a per fect deluge of congratulatory telegrams piled on his desk. As the Senator glanced through the messages, he said: "It's 6. veritable Republican landslide. It Is even better than we expected, espe-p end result Is. Indeed, most gratifying." Football on Shrove Tnesadr. Notes and Queries.

The Queen has ap proved the appointment, of Walter Long, president of the Board of Agriculture, to be professor ot the local government board in. succession to Right Horl.

That of Mr. Wyndham is universally welcomed, but" there I snm biting criticism of Lord Salisbury's care of his relatives, as he now" has" a son, two' nephews and a son-in-law In the govern ment, ' The Dally News asks why Lord Hugh Cecil haa been left out In the cbld, re marking that "blood Is thicker than pub lic Interest, and SaliBbuj'y has overdon the thjhg rather inartlstlcally." The dis placement of Powell Williams; who Is cpnnected with the scandals growing out' of the War Office contracts, is significant. The Times thinks that he will not be given another office, but the Dally Chron lele fronloally predicts his -promotion. Hugh Arnold Foster Is an expert whose, appointment Is welcomed. Lor4 Stanley was, aid-de-camp and private secretary tb Lod Roberts, as well as press censor In South Africa, and he Is, 'therefore, acquainted with the weak spots In the (.army. Lord Cranberry also served in South Africa. He Is now on his way home. " " It Is understood that Mr. "!hn1nn -win f retire altogether. Mr. Wyndham wiU not nolo a seat in the cabinet for the pres ent, but he Is likely to enter later. At the Carleton Club last 'evening. much strong feeling was expressed at the preponderance given to the LiberaJ-Un-. lonlsts, ana the Chamberlain set in the reconstructed government. There were grumblings of the same kind 'over the late Cabinet, and It was hoped that Lord Salisbury would see fit to redress the grievance His 'latest . appointments however, have given rise to a feeling almost of alarm' lest tho Chamberlam' party become absolute dictators.

J.e- n ; ' A. t j .r s. . . , , Cap Challenger to Be Thoroughly Tested -la Spring;. That Sir- Tbqmas -Upton - will- make a stronger bI4 .for the American's cup with Shamrock'!: than he did lost year Is acT knowIed,ged" by "all yachtsmen here who have hacLany experience, with cup races, says.tha New York Sun. The reports of the preparations that he and his friends are making sfiow that nothing will be left undone that Tttfl help to make the new challenger 14 every way a boa that will be able to .compete successfully with the new defender, and those who have the de fence pt the CUP In charge realize that to keep the cup in this country will mean a lot of hard Work. Sir Thomas Llpton has been making his plans for aJyear, and he did not lsaud the new challenge until he was prepared to go. ahead and build a yacht that experts on the other side de clare will be many minutes faster than tlie old Shamrpck and In their estimation as gopd a's ally new yacht that Herreshoff might turn out Sir Thomas Liptbn had many able ao visers, among whom were W. G.'Jamle son, -who is regarded- as the best amateuj. I sallorln British -water; George L. Wat- wf ii Mf uwiA0sswv W" Mi.iaut(ia IMU y i4 kyrles, ' the "Moteor, Sybarlta, Distant Shore and a big fleet of other fast yachts,; William Fife, Jr., who designod the Sham rock John Thorneycroft, the builder ot fast torpedp-boats, and mapy other men well known for their skill In building and sailing boats on the other side. Many plans and schemes were discussed by therrr, and It was finally thought best that George L. Watson should design the new yacht, and that as the Hendersons, haa built most of the yachts of Watson's de signs, and their yards were near Glasgow, the contract for building tho new chal lenger should be placed -with them. At : tho same time, Fife was commissioned to i put the old Shamrock in the best possible condition, but to keep, her-present shape. It was not thought advisable to make any experiments with the Shamrock, be cause if that yacht -wero altered, as many I think she should be, np one would bexble to- ten if sne naa oeen Denentea py tne change, and she Is wanted as a trial boat in order to find out If the. new yacht is much of an Improvement as far as speed Is concerned over the challenger of last I year. -rThe -old challenger Is to e fitted out a; once- for racing In the Mediterranean, and will then be tuned up so. that; when the new yacht Is ready for a trial the old boat will be at her best, and should be much faster than when she raced against the Columbia last year. The arrangements for building the ne" I yacht have been so well planned that It is expected mat sne win De reaay ior launching at the latter .end of March or early In April. If this plan lp carried out she will be sailing In May. and will then I be raeed against the old Shamrock until ape nas-xo do stripp-a tor ncu tng aerpsa the ocean, and during that time she will be imfiroved as much as possible. The plan now proposed Is to bring the two Shamrocks there, and they will be con voyed across the ocean by the steam yacht "Erin, which is still commanded by Captain Matthews: The trip across is where Sir Thomas "Ltpton Is somewhat handicapped. It will 'take at least six weeks out of the 10 months he has to pre pare1 for the 'international ?acey and this lost time will bffset the time lost on this side ln'-maklng arrangements to build the defender, so that the two yachts should have about the same amount of time for aotual sailing before the" races. Xne challenger will reach this side of the Atlantic- about the end of June, or. early in July, according to present plans, and will have at least six weeks In these waters before the big event. Sir Thomas Llpton and fill friends "trill arrive here in July and will again devote all their time to getting the new yacht tuned up. W. G. Jamieson will have- absolute charge. Cap tain Sycamore Is the 'sailing master of the ne"w yacht,' and h9 will -take- orders from no one by Mr. Jamieson, Deslgnet? Watson win be here to attend to the-"yacht as far as gettiag-fcer in proper shape for saljllng, and Thomas Betsey and a gang of sail maker? will look after- the. sails as usual,, Daat. Sf ?! expejrtencp w4l be of great benefit to Sir Thomas, and mistakes made then will not, be repeated. The Import ance ot sailing the yacht as much as pos sible Ui fully realise and slje will take a spin In all kinds of "weather" Last year, when-the weather was not fall that xould be desired, the Shamrock remalnedat an chor." Iei!gner Fife 'was . little overcon fldent, Jand did not wish to run any risks when the wind was strong' of caTrylna away any spars. IChe had not been so cautlonus then It la probable thaj1 the weakness In the topmast rigging would have been dlscoyertd and the yacht would not have lost her spar In the secojuTrace. Every one connected with the yacht realizes- that to beat Herreshoff is a big undertaking, and no one more so than Sir Thomas Llpton. He thinks, though, that "Tlth a, ne-jy yacht an improvement on his last boat, capable men to handle it, the old. craft as a trlalr boatand the expe rience of last year he has a good chance of being successful. He fuly realizes that the Columbia was not at her best, and he thinks that his yacht, too, could have done a little "better than: sTieTuid in the races with th Colum bia. In tho first race for the cup sailed ,las"t year tho Columbia beat tho Sham rock 10 minutes 8 seconds' and in the third raco sho won by 6 minutes 34 seconds. In the two races she won by .16 minutes 42 seconds, or an average of S mluutes 21 soconas, o er a -mne course. It the new Shamrock con show"to lio that much fast er than the Shamrock she will be about eve"h with the Columbia, and all the extra speedTahe-Ubows trill be to dffsetthe sneed I of the ,new, defender which, is to be buljt vy iiio riurresiioiig. Speaking of the challenge, tho Yachtlmr t Wprld says: ' "it is extremely probable that the keel of the. new challenger wHl be run under the samo shed at Meadowis'de In which so many famous Watson boats have been built. The Hendersons have built nearly eory Important ship, that Watson has designed, and, although Thistle and Glen Iffer are the oply 'a Ping yachts which they havo ever by t of metal, the re sources of the ya'r'l aVe such that they should havo no difficulty In turning out a metal challenger If the demand was made. r ' "It would be ridiculous at th" stage to pretend to moke any calculation ns to whether wa have .greater or less chances of success now than we had when the challenge of 1S99 was made, but we at least have tho satisfaction of Knowing that the gentlemen who will see this con test tnrougn nave at least more experience than was with them on the last occasion. George L. Watson has accepted the com mission to design the Challenger, which will this time be built on the Clyde. "Another point distinctly In favor of the challenge Is that one of the most skilled among our amateur yachtsmen has" prom ised to take over such share of the man agement of the "boat as- does riot rightly fall Into the duties of the skipper. It Is an open secret that'W. G. Jamieson Is the gentleman In question. and his ex perience In sailing the Britannia should proe of great value." The Yachtsman says: "In Issuing this challenge, wo have the best reason for believing that Sir Thomas Llpton Is in deadly earnest. He was over confident last year, and, owing to various causes, Shamrock was the victim of mis management through the whole of her brief season. Adversity may be some thing new to 'Sir Thomas, but I that he Is far from being unable to profit by its lessons. His new vessel will be thoroughly tested before she leaves home, and, best ot all news, Willie Jamieson will- be the owner's representative on board. No doubt, Mr. Jamieson will have plenary -powers, and If that Is so we may rest content that the next icontest will be devoid of some characteristics which have become common In these races. It Is cer tain that Shamrock will fit out and race with the new craft and Sybarlta, -If not Meteor, will also help tune the challenger up. - , , "Shamrock ill will not be so expensive!! hullt as, her predecessor,". hd no doubt more- 3R room'ror economy In this" direction- Statements attrlbut-teher owner on, this point are authentic.""

New York World. Booker T. Washington, called the "Black Moses," is here to fit out an expedition of negro students for South Africa." These negroes will be sent in compliance with the request ot tho German Government. whii.li hopes, by the Importation of Amer ican colored men, to civilize the savage subjects of Emperor William on the west coast of Africa and aid them In Indus trial development. It is the most novel race experiment of. the decade, and may. culminate In a gen eral exodus Of the Southern npro tn the Euuerop's tropical territory,- for tha- jltihj.'i urovernment nas oneed homes to all Intelligent negroes. Tho movement Is the direct result of the exhibit of tha Tuskegee Normal Insti tute at the Paris Exposition. This Is a college In Alabama o er which Booker T. Washington presides. It has accomplished more toward training negroes In industrial lines than anv other agency at work In the Southern States. In ,lhe daytime stu dents aro taught to operate machinery. They, aro mode to cultivate cotton and corn pn scientific principles. At night they study and attend lectures. They are trained In English and the classics. There Is no manufactured article .which the black students of Tuskegee cannot make. They sell their products all over the South. "They make carpets and. chairs and turn the cotton which they cultivate into cloth. These articles were exhibited at .Paris during. th.e exposition. Representatives of. Fmpe'ror "William were passing through the United Sta'tes building. They were struck with the dis play from the Tuskegee school. The", were amazed when Informed that this had been years ago sla es.

The Principal Cause 'is Carabfo bat Generally OverXooltecl. " Many things may cause deafnes and very often It Is difficult to "trace a, cause. Somo people Inherit deafness. Acute' dis eases like scarlet 'fever sometimes oauso deafness. But by far the most common cause of loss of hearing is catarrh of head and throat. . A prominent specialist on ear troubles Igrvea as his opinion that nine out of ten uaaea ox aeoxnes? are iracca 10 xnronc trouble; (his is probably overstated, but it is Certainly true that more than ha'f of all. cases of poor hearing-were 9.u3ed by catarrh. The catarrhal secretion in the nose and throat finds It way Into .the Eustachian tube and by clogging it up very soon affects tho hearing, and" the hardening oi tho secretion makes the loss dt hearing permanent, unless the. catarrh ""which paused tho trouble is cured. Those wfoo aro hard of hearing may think this a little far-fetched, 'but any one at all observant must have noticed how a hard cold In the head will affect the hearing, add 'that catarrh If long neglected will certainly Impair the senso of hearing and ultimately cause deafness. If the nose and throat aro kept clear "and "free from the unhealthy secretions ct catarrh, tho hearing will at once greaLy Improve, and any one suffering from deaf ness, and catarrh can satisfy, themselves on this point by using a fifty-cent box ot Stuart's Catarrh Tablets, a new catarrh cure, which in the past year has won the approval of thousands of catarrh sufferers as well as physicians, .because It is in convenient form to use, contains no co caine or opiate and is as safo and pleas ant for children as for their elders. Stuart's Catarrh Tablets Is a whojesomo combination of blood root, Gualacol. Eu calyptol and similar antiseptics., and they cure catarrh and catarrhal deafness by action upon the blood and. mucous mem brane of the nose and throat. As. one physician aptly expresses It: "You do not have to draw upon the Im agination to discover whether, you are getting benefit from Stuart's Catarrh Tablets: Improvement and relief ore ap parent from the first tablet taken. All druggists sell and recommend ihera. They, cost but fifty cents for full-slzea package, and any catarrh sufferer -who has wasted time and money on .sprays, salves and powders will appreciate to the full the merit of Stuart's Catarrh Tablets.
