annals of the city.
THE PHESIDENT'S ADDBESS.
Following Is the text of President
McKlnley's address:
"A critical study of Washington's
carter only enhances our estimation of
Ills vast and varied abilities. As com
mander In chief ot the Colonial armies
from the beginning of the war to tho
proclamation of peace, ns president of
the convention which framed the con
stitution of the L'nlted States, nnd a
the first president of the United States
under that constitution, Washington
has a d'stl ictlon differing from that, of
al' "). illustrious Americans. No
Htltutlon of the United Stutes, and ao
i elation to the government Xot only
hi bis military genius his patience.
his s-igaclty, his courage, and his skill
was our national Independence won,
but ho helped In largest measure to
draft tho chart by which the nation
was guided; and he was the first chos
en of tho people to put In motion the
new government.
' Iiis was not the boldness of material
display or the charm of captivating
oratory, but his calm and steady Judg
ment won men's support and com
manded their confidence by appealing
to their best and noblest aspirations.
And withal Washington was ever so
modest that at no time In his career
did his personality feeem In tho least In
trusive. He was above the temptation
of power. He hpurned tho suggested
crow n. He would have no honor which
the people did not bestow.

"An Interesting fact and one which
1 love to recall Is that tho only tlmo
Washington formally addressed tho
Constitutional convention during all Its
sessions ocr which he presided In,
this city, he appealed for a larger rep
resentation of the people In the na
tional house of representatives, and his
appeal was Instantly heeded. Thus
was ho ever keenly watchful of the
rights of tho people In whose hands
was tho destiny ot our government
then and now.
IN CIVIL LIFE;
"Masterful ns were his military cam
paigns, his civil administration com
mands equal admiration. Ills foresight
was marvelous: his conception of the
philosophy of government, his Insist
ence upon tho necessity of education,
morality and enlightened citizenship to
the progress nnd permnnenco of tho
republic cannot be contemplated even
at this period without filling us with
astonishment nt tho breadth of his
comprehension nnd tho sweep of his
vision.
"Ills was no narrow view of govern
ment. The Immediate present was
not his sole concern, but our future
good his constant theme of study, lie
blazed the path of liberty. Ho laid tho
foundation upon which we have grown
from weak and scattered colonial gov
ernments to a united republic, whoso
domains and power as well as whose
liberty nnd freedom have become tho
admiration of the world. Distance and
time have not detracted from tho famo
nnd force of his achievements or di
minished tho grandeur of his life and
work. Great deeds do not stop In their
growth nnd those of Washington will
expand In Influence In nil the cen
turies to follow.
THE LESSON HE TAUGHT.
"The bequest Washington has made
to civilization Is rich beyond compu
tation. Tho obligations under which
ho has placed mankind are sncreil
and commanding. Tho responsibility
he has left for the American people to
preserve and perfect what he accom
plished Is exacting and solemn. Iet
us rejoice In every new evidence that
the people realize what they enjoy, and
cherish with affection tho Illustrious
heroes of Revolutionary story whose
valor and sacrifices made us a nation.
They live In us nnd their memory will
help us keep the covenant entered Into
for the maintenance of the freest gov
ernment of earth.
"The nation and the name ot Wash
ington nre inseparable. One is linked
Indlssolubly with the other. Both are
glorious, both triumphant, Washing
ton lives and will live because what
he did was for the exaltation of man,
the enthronement of conscience and
the establishment ot a government
which recognizes all the governed. And
so, too, will the nation live victorious
over all obstacles, adhering to the Im
mortal principles which Washington
taught nnd Lincoln sustnined."
INSANE LAD'S ACT,
Frank Machcmcr Cuts the Throat of
Little Alsbcl Kurtz with a
Butcher's Knife.
Philadelphia, May 16. Frank Macho
mer, an insane lad of 19 years, this af
ternoon cut tho throat of Mabel Kurtz,
tho 7-year-old daughter of Adolph

Assistance was called and the suffering
child was hurriedly token to the hos
pital. A butcher knife covered with blood
wna found on the floor but there was
no evidence to Indicate by whom the

pointed to Mochcmer but ho could not
bo found. Shortly afterward he walked
into the house from tho street nnd
was placed under arrest. He at first
denied having any knowledge of the
crime but subsequently acknowledged
that he cut the child's throat He gave
no explanation for tho deed.

A good sized crowd of admirers of
the great national game witnessed yes
