President McKinley was averse to a bodyguard or to restrictions on his movements, and was exceed­ ingly informal and democratic while in Washington. On many pleasant mornings he induged in a half hour’s stroll entirely alone through the southern portion of the grounds surrounding the Whitt House, Often he left the gate at the western side of the grounds and was joined by Controller of the Currency, Charles Dawes, also an early riser, and together these two men would make the circuit of the ellipse south of the White House grounds. Upon these occasions he was never accompanied by a body­ guard or a Secret Service man. It is said Mr McKinley was often warned that the strolls alone were dangerous. Frequently Mr McKinley drove alone about the city and its suburbs. Seldom the President himseli handled the reins, but at no tian was there ever a Seoret Service man in attendance, either near or al » distanoe. The closest attendant in the Seoret Service force that the President had was George Foster, who constituted his personal body­ guard. A few days ago a Wash­ ington Post reporter, while at talked with Captain Buffalo. Valleley, of the Exposition force, on the precautions be would take to insure the l’resideut's safety Captain Valleley said he had picked men of the country under him, and that all the time that the Preaident was in the Exposition grounds he would be surrounded by aleit de­ tectives, who would form a constant bodyguard. The captain ridiculed the possibility of danger. MOUNTAIN ROSE, THEN DISAP­ PEARED. Tbe steamer Tartar, just strived al Vancouver, British Columbiai brings news that a mountain in Northern Japan disappeared after an earthquake last mouth. It stoxi in the center of a plain in Igusa district, rose over 503 feet in height, ami covered 40 acres at the outskirts ot the village of Koi* wayama. On August 16 a tremendous thundering noise was heard in tbe direction of this hill, and when the Villager« assembled on the spot, at­ tracted by the mysterious sounds, they found that the mountain had disappeared. Instead of the hill they saw level ground, grown over with wild grass and shrubs, The Strange discovery threw the ▼11- lagers into great oousternation, A closer examination of the epot showed that the mountain had l>een bodily sunk into tbe ground, leaving its top on a level with the aurrounding land- MODERN SURGERY. tion. Not that it will be a par­ ticularly remarkable case; it is only especially noticeable on account of the exalted position of the patient. The life of many a man w0und»d as badly as the President was, or worse, has been saved by like prompt and skillful surgery. • • • President McKinley is fortunate in living at so late a time, when surgery has become so exaot a science. He was also fortunate that the shot was tired so late in the day, yet before the dinner hour, when hie stomrch was almost empty. He was further fortunate tn possessing sound physical health, and an even, optimistic temper­ ament. Doubtless this enabled him immediately to say to himself when he realized what had ha; - p ned: “1 am still alive, and t - iieve 1 am not mot* Uy wounded. I will keep calm, and I lieve that I eh all recover.” This natural o • timism is i’ elf a better, that has no doubt operated powerfully in his behalf during the critical time since the operation was performed. President Cleveland took the precaution during his last term ol office to keep a trusted body-guard almost oontinually by his side when ‘.raveling or in publio. At recep­ tions the guard, dressed in oitizen’s .'lo’.he», took his position on the left 01 the president where he could care ully scrutinize approaching strangers and catch the right arm jf the man about to shake bands with the President in case ot sue picious action. Those who criticized Cleveland for taking such precau­ tions for |tersonal safety now have occasion to commend his foresight. Cleveland, as well as other presi­ dents, received threatening letters and thought it best to keep on the safe side. f- ■L.,1.1.1 —' European papers aver that the kings of Europe run lees risk of as­ sassination than the president of the United States. Their reasons are torcible. Kings are hedged about and guarded by etiquette bo that it is a mere chance if an anarchist gets a shot at one. The President must shake hands with every one that oomea to bis reception, besides is easily approached on other oc­ casions- The banks have received warning from the treasury department that <300,000 in unsigned bills of two Montana banks, comprising 1100,- 000 in twenties, and 1200,000 in tens, stolen iu the recent express robbery are being floated.

BUFFALO AND EUGENE TIMES. Eugene io Minutes Faster Than True Time—Buffalo 16 Minutes Faster—Three Hours Be­ tween Them. The dispatches from Buffalo iti re- gard to President McKinley’s coodl- tion have Interested the public in the time of the two places. Heveral ye rs since the big railroads of tbe United States adopted standards of time to apply to certain arbitiary divisions of the oountry on north and south Hue», all railroad time in each division to beset the same without re­ gard to the true lime. There are five divisions: Central time extends from 84 degrees west to 101 and is tbe true time of the 00th meridian. It ie nine minutes slower than Chicago true time. E» tern time la baaed upon tbe 75tb meridian which is oue hour fasti r than Ceutral time, or four miuutes slower than New York City time. It is Buf­ falo time. Intercolonial tune, tbe southeastern part of Canada, is based upou the GOtb meridian and la two hours faster than Central time. Moun­ tain time (Rocky mountain«) 1s baaed u [ kiu tbe 106th meridian and la one hour slower than Central time. Pacific coast time la baaed upou the 120th meridian and la two hours slower than Ceutral time. Portland, Eugeue and Han Francisco are each teu minutes taster than the true time, Buffalo, New York, where the president lies shot, la 10 minutes faster than tbs true time. Practically the eutire lime of the country la bated upou standard or railroad time. While it throws tbe time of the country from a few in mu tee to as much as a half hour fart or slow, according to locality, this ie an age of railroads and other people’s time nec­ essarily luuit conform to traveling time. There nre few meridians where tbe time is halt an hour off tbe true time most of the country ranglug from true time to 20 minutes fast or stow. BUFFALO AND EL'DKNK. A Reliable Success TV. llo.tr..'

"Near him were three tra' ellng salesmen, well dressed. joUy fel­ lows, one of whom suggested a game of cards, and the others agreed They apjH-ah-d to the young man to take part and make up a four handed game. “ ‘Thank you; I never play cards, came tbe response to tbe Invitation. “ ‘I am sorry for t’.at. M ill you have a cigar with us?' added tbe spokesman, producing his case. “ 'I am obliged to you. but 1 never smoke,' replied tbe dignified young man. "They thought they would jolly the young fellow out of dignity, so the leader produced a ‘traveling compan­ ion’ and asked: " ‘As you do not play cards nor smoke you will not refuse to join us In a drink?* “ ‘I thank you, gentlemen, but 1 nev er drink.” “With this a venerable man with ministerial aspect sitting In tbe seat behind the young man reached for­ ward and tapjs'd hint on the shoulder. “ ‘I have heard what you have said to these men,’ said the sedate old fel­ low, 'and I admire you for the stability of character which has enabled you to shun bad habits. I have a daughter In tbe parlor car, whom I should like to have you meet.' " 'I thank you, sir,’ replied the young man, turning about and facing the gentleman 'but the fact Is I never in­ tend to marry.’ "—Milwaukee Sentinel. f 1 b> Or* i • • bita* brt U » W'M r ' BiUC< » bt^M*« I UH.f A To Cut Prices t lH»l' .«•ill Ul MIH rV» i IU J vi»u«ry U» aud i* ut>w gr« wmx than •***• before II ba» ••»« d 3 48 c i Ileal»* of iusurnuc» fr uu h bruaiy 1 <> Aug­ uri 1, 1901 of which 761 weie I--« '• m tbe mouth of Ju y.

When a member of the royal family conies to dinner, It Is a point of eti­ quette to provide none but the illustri­ ous guest with a finger bowl at the end of the banquet. The other diners must get on somehow without that conven­ ience. The reason is a curious one. In early Georgian days oue never knew who wns loyal. Every other man might be a Jacobite In his secret heart. Now, it wns a piece of Jacobite ritual whenev­ er the toast of "The King” was drunk secretly to pass the goblet over any water that happened to bo by the drinker. This was supposed to con­ vert the toast Into that of "The King Over the Water,” the exiled Stuart at Home or St. Germains. On this becoming known the court Insisted that there should lie no water within reach of any guest, and the pro­ hibition still holds. London News.
