IN the columns oi this week's Pcst we are called upon to chronicle oneof tlie three most sad and horrible events in the Nation's history, 'e shooting of President McKinley by Leon Czolgosz, an anarchist at Buffalo. Fm 1865 Lincoln fell a victim to Booth and 1881 Garfield was assassinated by Citeau. Now in a period of peace, prosperity and American abundance the chief ol this Nation is shot down in cold blood by a villian, fed, foster etl and encouraged by anarchists of the most treasonable stripe. The murder of Lincoln, at u time when the clouds of war were lifting and he was entering on a new era of constructive statesmanship in a spirit of charity and peace, was nevertheless the sequel ol a period of Litter strife and passion, when the President appeared to many minds the embodiment of a hated power. The assassina tion of Garfield, however associated with partisan dispute, was the individual act of an imlxclle. As to the assassin who Shot McKinley we can but class it with those other manifestations of the spirit of anarchy, the reckless hatred of organized authority, that have schocked the European world. It is a crime as inexplicable and as futile as the assassination of the President of the French Republic, and more appalling in as we have supposed ourselves removed from revolutionary violence. It was only Thursday that the whole couotrv was applauding President McKiuley's happy speech at the Buffalo Exposition, its broad out look, its calm and cheerful spirit, the sunny temperament it displayed. It seemed to mark the culmination of a fortunate areer, that had carried him on to higher and higher usefulness, miking him in some sense the representative of that wider life the nation has attained and of its br ladening influence in the civilization of the world. It was a speech so full of hope and onragc and good will that it stirred the nation al consciousness. But a tew hours later came the distressing news of the cowardly assault, and congratulation gave place to sorrow and anxiety. Mr. McKinley has happily outlived the nar row limitations of his earlier public lite. The politician in him has grown into the statesman, and more and more he has broadened to the re quirements of his high office. But even were it otherwise, there would lie no thought - to-day but for his virtues, his high character as a man, his dignity as President. It is the President who has been wounded, and every loyal American re coils at the injury. LITERARY NOTES. pepper's magazine. "Siif.'s My own Cirl," by Andrew Sterling and M. J. Steinberg, two of the best song writers of to-day, is one of those catchy, melodious songs that every lody likes. This song will be a suc cess, we feel sure.

Arthur Brisbane, in his own incomparable way, takes the Incubator Baby and Niagara Falls tor his subject. Director General Buchanan contributes a very interesting paper on the organization of the Exposition. Professor Pupin, Col. David Porter Heap, Ella Wheeler Wilcox, Ltviu Hart, Julian Haw thorne, and John Brishen Walker are among others who consider the various phases of the Exposition. COSMOPOLITAN. Fourteen noted writers were sent by The Cosmopolitan Magazine to the Pan-American Exposition to study the most interesting features with a view to preparing the most beautiful souvenir of any Exposition ever made, from both a literary anil an artistic standpoint. To "Mr. Dooley" was committed the case of the Midway. Judge Robert Grant went from Bos ton to give a bird's-eye view of the Exposition in his own most delightful style. Albert Shaw and Nichohu Murray Butler studied the value of the Exposition, and its educational influence. Charles Y. Turner, to whom was committed the color-scheme of the Pan-American, explains the methods by which he has produced such mar- EVERYWHFRE. Will Caiji, Eton's magazine Every Where, for September, is at hand, and its contents are up to its usual high standard of excellence. The wide range of topics covered by this magazine is stonishing. Every realm ol human interest is represented by Something that interests and re freshes the reader. "The Belle of Manhattan", a romance of the old days when New York was a Dutch village, is in its seventh part. The story is told in verse by the gifted editor of the magazine, and it has all the charm of the writer's other work. An article on the "re-treeing" of United States, chiefly from the viewpoint of the government work, describes a new phase of the subject. The sketch is illustrated by pictures taken by the government experts, on the preserves that are uow being worked. An article on the return of the Jews to Palestine, brings out with a refresh 'ng clearness, thr fascinating idea of a Jewish state. Maiy Jews have already returned to Palestine, as colonists, but the idea that they will some time constitute an independent nation is not generally appreciated. Margaret E. Sangster has her usual quota of poems in this number, and Kate Upson Clark discusses with her usual brilliancy, the matter of the promis cuous use of firearms. Why is it that nothing is being done in the matter of getting the shoe factory started again'.' There are idle hands here and the money inves ted is worth interest. Nothing is gained by this delay. Those who have the matter in charge should either sell the plant or make ar rangements to operate the plant. Other shoe factories are booming and prospering.
