somely dressod women assisted In tho re
ception. For a half dozen blocks each way
tho streots woro crowded from 2 till 0
o'clock.
Mrs. Allco Dannor Jonoq, ono of tho
most oloquont women of Ohio, presented
Oovornor McKlnley, wifo and mother,
ngod 87 years, from tho balcony overlook
ing tho lawn, saying in part:
"You know tho import of this meeting.
We, the women of Canton and Stark
county, would show honor to the two
women noarost nnd dearest to tho mnn to
whom not only Canton but an ontlro na
tion is paying homngo. Ho la bound to

"Tho path which wo now fco fo plninly
loading to tho Whlto llouso had its begln
ing within tho doorway of tho llttlo framo
houso in Nlloi There tho wisdom of a
father and tho loving guldancoof nmother
laid tho foundation 6toncs in a young boy's
llfo of tho justice, tho sagacity and tho
charity which characterize tho statesman
of today.
"Ah, Motherl Tho llttlo hands you

Lifo's disolpllno of calm and storm has
left its marks upon your boy's fnco, but
tho nocossnry lossons and songs nro still

hands upon his hands today is a motlvo
power for good, so pure, so llmitloss In Its
roach that only balances unseon can esti

Mrs. MoTCinley, over twenty-flvo yonra

hi Canton's young attornoy. You, plighted
to him your glrllsn initn ana within tno

him for ninny roars nnd Cnnton has boon
proud of you. Governor MoKlnloy'S every
act today boars upon it tho stamp' of his
association with a reuned, exalted womniv
hood.
So purely womanly Is your wifely do-
votion, so In sympathy with his ovory In-

you not a part of it today wo Ijollovo that,
llko Lafayette, ho would exclaim in tho

"Governor and Sirs. MoKlnloy, in giv
ing you to tho nation wo do not fool that
wo are losing you. too many tics, sacred

thoro are deeper lovos, there are homos on
South Market and West Tuscarawas, and
out In Wost Lawn there are tiny gnivos
nnd larger ones which will ovormnko Can
ton a Mecca for your returning feet.
Following tho address two girls pre
sented Mrs. McKlnley, Mothor MoKlnloy
and onoh lady of the party a bouquet of
pretty llowers from tho ladios of Canton.
Then Govoruor MoKlnloy responded:
"Women of Canton: I am sure thnt
both wifo and mother would havo mo ex
press their warm appreciation of the gra
cious words spoken in this prosonco, and
I anure you that no higher honors can
como to mo than this loving tribute you
havo paid to thoso who are so near and

como to nny man than to have the appro
val of tho mothers and tho sisters of this
city, with whom he has dwelt so long. It
will givo wifo nnd mother both tho great
est pleasure to meet you all. I thank
you."
Thoro wns deafening applause from
hands that wore gloved and ungloved, too.

livid I.tit Mght.
Tho Hoard of Health held a regular
monthly meeting last night with tho follow-
ng members in attendance : Messrs. Spald
ing, Miles, Morrison and McIIalo.
Tho reports showed that slneo tho last
meeting, held on May 22d, thoro wero 37
deaths of local rosidents. Of thoso 2 died nt
tho Schuylkill Haven nlmshouso and 2 at tho
Minors' hospital. Twelvo of tho deaths were
dtio to contagious diseases enumerated as
follows: Typhoid fever, 2; measles, lj
membraneous croup, 1 ; scarlet fover, 1 ;
diphtheria, 1.
Dr. Clifton I'obbins appeared before tho
Hoard to answer a complaint that a child
named I.izzio Tobias had died on tho 1th inst.
of membraneous croup and tho doctor had
failed to report the case. Dr. lioblnns said
tho reason ho made no report was that in his
teaching and reading on membraneous croup
ho had learned that thcro were two kinds
the contagious and non-contagious, and tho
caso referred to being non-contagious ho did
not consider that ho was bound to report it.
Tho law bearing upon the caso was read,
and a motion to excuso was adopted.

HIS BODY WAS CUT IN TWAIN
An Outcome of the Dangerous Practice of
Illegal Car Riding The Coal and Iron
Police Are Waging an Active
Campaign Against It.
Tho members of tho Coal & Iron polico
forco yesterday Inaugurated an active cam
paign against illegal train riders in pur
suance of orders issued by tho general super
intendent of tho Lehigh alley Hailroad
Company and made several arrests. As ono
result of tho raids there was a fatality winch
should servo as a dreadful warning to others
who may bo violating tho law. Tho victim
was Owen McDonough, aged 20 years and re
siding at Centralis.
At about 2:30 yesterday afternoon C. & I.
Policeman Georgo Gclger was at the Itaven
Run depot awaiting tho arrival of tho cast-
lound passenger train and incidentally keep
ing watcli for illegal riders on passing coal
and freight trains. Engine No. 100 approached
from tho east, bound for Centralia to get a
train of loaded coal cars. Tho engine was
running tank foremost. As it rounded
tho curve near tho depot Gclger observed
that there were thrco or four young men
riding on tho pilot of tho engine. Tho oiii
cer signaled tho engineer to slacken speed,
which was done. The young men on tho
pilot jumped olT and ran up the dirt bank ou
tho opposito sido ot the track. At tho same
time McDonough, who was riding on tho
tank of tho engine, but in such a position
that ho could not bo seen, jumped up and
mado a spring to tho track ahead of tho en
gine. He was knocked down as lie alighted
and fell in such a position on tho rail that
the wheels of tho engino 'cut Ills body in
twain at tho abdomen. Death was instan
taneous. Tho engino was stopped and tho
remains, after being placed ou a door taken
from tho depot, wero sent to tho patents of
tho deceased at Centralia.
Just beforo this accident happened I'olico-
man Peter Kreiger arrested on a coal train
at Itaven Run a young man named Peter
Lavello, also of Centralia. After a hearing
beforo Jnstico Williams, of town, Lavello
was directed to pay $10 lino aud costs. Ho
was released upon giving security for pay
ment. Last night Policemen Geigerand Kreiger
arrested at ttirk Placo Thomas W. Bird,
Harrisburg; John W. Paul, Ashland, and
Georgo Schuey, of town, for illegal car rid
ing. They wero brought to town and given
