every minute and strangers were made
to feel welcome.

The Hungarian Gypsy Band. of New-
ark. N. .l., furnished the music for the
dancing. They were hardly given a
breathing spell. Everybody wanted to
dance. and when the music would stop
they would call for more. The musi-
cians were nearly tired out and they
were glad when the lust note was
sounded. It was not so at the other
place. although there was music contin-
uOusly There was a brass band and
druln (orps. When one would stop
playing the other would start in.

chance to dance 1.!) their way. During
the afternoon largo. delegations from
St. Joseph's Sick Benefit and Church

To wreck the door of the express car
with dynamite with which both the

racer thirty-three seconds in the same
distance:

The result of Mr. Hyslop's calcula—
tions on the Independence were as fol-
low: Waterline 89.16. Sail area. 18.87
square feet.
I” square feet. Racing length 103.35
feet.

The racing lengths of the three
yachts are: Constitution. 104.73, Inde-
pendence. 103.35; Columbia. 102.3.

Some changes are to be made in the
trim of the Columbia this afternoon
which will necessitate. a new measure—
ment by Mr. Hyslop before she goes (full.
for tomorrow’s race, and possibly her
figures may be slightly changed.

Ir was extremely gratifying to Mr.
(Yr‘olvinsllirrld and others on the Inde-
pendence to find the yacht so well un-
der the ninety-foot limit on the water
line. especially as more than a ton of
load was taken aboard just before Mr.
Hyslop began his measurements.

None of the three racers went out
this morning. although the Constitu-
tion hoisted her mainsail and No. 3 club
top soil. Preparations also were made
on the Independence for a spin as soon
as Mr. Hyslop had finished, but it was
mo near dinner time when he left the

afternoon.

Charles Francis Adams, 2d, of Bos-
ton. one of the best amateur yachts-
ulen in the country, will have charge of
the Independence during the races
here. although Mr. Cromnlnshleld. who
is a cousin of Mr. Adams will he aboard
and have an eye upon everything.

dent and Secretary Cortelyoil were busy
today closing up odds and ends of bus-
iness prior to the departure of the
presidential party for Canton at 7: 45
o‘clock this evening. Ever since the
trip to Canton was decided upon there
has been a constant fear among Mrs.
McKinley a friends that at the last
moment it would he found that she
w asnot strong enough to stand the
fatigue of the Journey. Those nearest
her, however. have had every confi-
dence that she would be In good con-
dition for the journey when the time
came and the belief seems to have been
justified. When Dr. Rixey left Mrs
McKinley this forenoon, he said that
she was really better than she had been
at any time since her attack while on
the Western trip, though still weak. In
addition to the president and Mrs. Mc-
Kinley. and Mr. Cartelyou. the party
will consist of Dr. Rixey. a nephew and
niece of Mrs. McKinley, and We meme
bers of the White House clerical force.
They will tra'VeI in a private. car anllA
