Of tho ten eoldlcr presidents of the United States whose services In that ofllco covered practically forty years of the exist ence of the Republic, William Mc Klnley Is the first to call the nation to arms. Nine men who had seen tictlvo military service have preceded hlin as chief executive of the nation, several of them serving two terms, yet it was reserved for this man, who entered tho servlco of tho nation ns a private Boldlur at tha age of seventeen and rose stop by step as u result of active and gallant nervine upon the field of battle, thus realizing tin- full meaning of the step, to Issue the first soldier's - . ... , . ssue the first soldiers AS ashliigton. Jackson, !! Pierce, Limit. rail to war Harrison, Tay Hayes, Oarfleld and Harrison, former occupants of the White House, were all military men: all generals, yet not one of them was colled upon to as sume the responsibility and dudes which now devolve upon William Mc Klnley. private soldier, sergeant, lieu tenant, nnd at the close of the ser vice, major. MILITARY EXPERIENCE. Every wnr wliloh has heretofore been entered upon since the organiza tion of the government was begun un der the administration of a man with out military experience, whether it be the war with the Barbary states in 1S01 nnd again In IMS; the war of 1S12; the war with Mexico or tho War of the Rebellion. Possibly President McKlnley's prac tical knowledge of war and of tho losses of life and all the sorrows which nccompany It, may have had some thing to do with his willingness, anx iety indeed, to bring tho questions which have been constantly before him since his inauguration to a peace ful solution. If this be true, It was because of this practical knowledge of tho horrors of war and the sufferings they must bring, for there is nothing In William McKlnley's personal record In the field to show lack of courage or hesitation before entering upon tho ptruggles which must result In a loss of life, and endanger all those partici pating. M'KINLEY'S WAK RECORD. It is interesting nt this tlmo and un der these circumstances to recall something of the actual war history and services of this soldier-president, who now becomes the Commander-In-t'hlef of the Army and Navy at the time when the nation is entering up on nctu.il hostilities. It was In June, 1S61, at Poland, Ohio, his boyhood home, that, a seventeen year old boy, lie volunteered and entered the na tion's service ns a private soldier. The record of his early military service Is told by that earlier Ohio president, General Rutherford II. Hayes, who said of William McKinley: When I first madu his acquaintance ho was a boy just past tho ago ol 17. Ho, with me, entered upon a new, strange life, the life of a s-ol'llcr in tho time of actual war. It was soon found that he had unusual character for the badness of war. Young as ho was we soon found him in executive ability, a man of unusual and unsur passed capacity. When battles were to bo fought or servlco performed In warlike things he always took Ins place. Tile night was never too dark, tho weather never too cold tor prompt anil elllclent performance of his duty. When 1 became commander ot the regiment, he soon came to bo upon my staff and I learned to know him llko a book ami love him like a brother. Ho naturally progressed, for his talent and capacity could not be unknown. The bloodiest day of the war. the day on which moio men uera killed atid wounded than any nthee day of thu war was the 17th of September. 18.J2, In tho battlo of Antletnm. That battle began at daylight. Without breakfast, without coffee, the men went Into tho light and continued until niter the sun went down. Early In the afternoon they wero famished and thirsty. Tho commissary department of tho brig ado was under Sergeant .McKlnley's administration. From his hands every man In tho regiment was nerved with hot laffeo and warm meats, a thing that hail never occurred under simi lar circumstances in any other army In the world. He passed under tiro and delivered with his own hands those things so essential for the men for whom ho was laboring. AI.EItT AND INTREPID. When In later years, Major McKln leys qualities as a manager of Im portant undertakings were called into question by somebody, the reply was made by ono laminar with his record, "A man who, before he had attained tho age or twenty-one, kept up the supplies of the army of General Crook In active service In the Held, Is not lacking In business ability." That his action In emergency and under great stress ot circumstances is prompt und wise Is shown by an incident occur ring during Sheridan's great battle at Opequan, when Captain McKinley ns aldo tie camp on the staff of General Sheridan, brought a verbal message to General Duval, commanding the Second division, to move his command quickly to a position on the right of the Sixth corps, tho First division hav ing ptevlously been ordered to that position. General Duval, on receiving the order, asked. "Uy what route shall I move my command?" Captain Mc Kinley. knowing no more ubout the country than did General Duval, and without definite orders, replied, "I would move- up this rreok," to which Duval replied, "I will not budge with out definite orders." Captain McKinley replied, "This Is n tlmo of great emergency, General, I order, you by command of General Crook to move your command up this ravine to a position on the right of (he army."' General Duvnl obeyed and moved on the routo indicated by the young aldo de camp, attained tho po Hition, charged tho enemy nnd drove them In confusion from their works, as the result of the responsibility tiken by Captain McKinley at this critical moment. TEnSONAIi COUnAQE. Of Ills personnl courage, in battle, a hJ.MQ.rlan wrltlpg of tho battle ot Win chtwter of July 24, ISC1, says: ' - ttticJt, .bcoijip, .iieceijsary... to .fall back It was discovered that ono of the regiments was stilt at tho point whero it was posted at tho beginning of tha battle, General Hayes, turning to lieutenant McKinley, directed him to go and bring away tho Regiment if It had not already fallen back. McKin ley turned his horsu and keenly spurred it, pushing at a llcrco gallop obliquely toward tho advancing en emy. A snd look camo over General Hayes' face aa he saw this young gal lant boy push rapidly forward to al most certain death. None ot us ex pected to see him again us he pushed his horse through tho open Holds, over fences, over ditches, whllo a well directed flro from tho enemy was poured upon him, with shells explod ing around, about nnd over him. Once he was completely enveloped In the smoko of an exploding shell nnd wo thought ho had gone down, but out ot this smoko emerged his wlrey llt tlo blown hotso with McKinley still firmly seated, as erect As a hussar. Ho reached tho icglmeiit and gavo the order to fall back. Tho colonel In re ply said, "I am ready to go wherever you shall lead, but, lieutenant. I be lieve I ought to give those fellows a volley or two beforo I go." McKlnley's reply was, "Then up and nt them as quickly ns possible," and on orders the regiment arose, gave tho enemy a crushing volley followed with a rat tling fire, and then slowly retreated under McKlnley's lead toward Win chester. As McKinley drew up by tho side of Hayes, after bringing the regi ment to the brigade, General Hayes said: "McKinley, I never expected to seo you l.i life again." BATTLES HE FOUGHT IN.

TRAFFIC IN DISEASED COWS. Carcassed Sold to Jlnnulnctnrers ot llologim. Mount Holly, N. J., April 23. For months past an extensive business in condemned cattle has been carried on by certain dealers In Burlington county who sell the animals to tho manufac turers of bologna wuisnges. So flagrant has this traffic become that tho auth orities have nt last decided to take the necessary steps to put a stop to the business. Repeated instances have oc curred of the sale of cows In the last stages of tuberculosis, while animals otherwise diseased have been disposed of without any attempt at conceal ment. In some Instances cows have been unable to travel nnd have been promptly slaughtered. One of tho men engaged in tho busi ness insists that It is perfectly legiti mate, ns the cows are sold as "bolog nas." and the purchaser understands by this that they nre unsound. If he of fends against tho law, he Is the one to be held responsible, not the dealer. RATHUR DIE THAN GO TO WAR. Ponrs ot .Spnnlsh Tortures Prompts n .11 on to Suicide. New York, April 23. John Haug, an unemployed tailor, 1S years old, took his own life, at 127 Meserole street, Broklyn, today, rather than run the risk of being called to war and being taken prisoner by the Spaniards, lie chose illuminating gnH an u means of death. Haug wns strongly In favor of war at first, but when the conversation turned to the possibilities of the Span lards Ill-treating their prisoners of war ho became frightened. Yesterday he told his friends that he had decided not to go to wnr. They tensed him to such nn extent that ho went to his room nnd locked himself In, nnd today was found dead. DYINfJ FROM AN ASSAULT.
