An Incident that brought forth a ripple of amusement occurred while tho president was making the rounds through tho gov ernment building. He had passed ono of tho nnvy exhibits when suddenly he noticed Captain Hobson standing at "nttentlon." Halting, he turned and, walking over to the hero of tho Mcrrlmac, grasped him cor dially by he hand nnd chatted with him for a few minutes. At tho conclusion of tho reception tho piesldcnt and tho members of tho party again entered their currlar.es nnd wero taken to tho homo of Mr. Mllburn In Dela ware avenuo. Tho president visited the grounds ngaln this evoulng to witness tho fireworks, returning to the houso at t o'clock. Tomorrow the president and about 100 Invited guests will visit Niagara Fulls. In his speech at the stand President Mc Klnley said, after being Introduced by Mr. Mllburn: In Coiniilliiiciitary to Exposition. "President Mllburn, Director General Buchanan, Commissioners, Ladles and Ren tlcmen: I am glad to be again in the city of Dutfalo and exchaugo grcotlngs with her pcoplo, to whose sonorous hospitality I ftm not a stranger and with whoso good will I havo been repeatedly nnd Signally honored. Today I havo additional satisfaction In mooting nnd giving welcome to tho foreign representatives assembled here, whose presence nnd participation In this exposi tion havo contributed In so marked n de gree to Its Interests and success. To the commissioners of the Dominion of Canada and the British colonies, tho French colo nics, the republics of Mexico and of Central and South America nnd tho commissioners of Cuba, nnd Porto Rico, who shore with us In this undertaking, we glvo tho hand of fellowship and felicitate them upon tho triumphs of art, science, education and manufacture which tho old world has be queathed to tho new century, "Expositions are the tlmekcopers of prog ress.

The success of art, science, Industry and Invention Is nn inter national asset and a common glory. "After all, how near one to the other Is every part of thn world. Modern Inventions hf.vc brought Into close relation widely separated peoples and made them better ac quainted, Ideographical and political di visions will continue to exist, but distances havo been effaced. Swift ships and fast trains are becoming cosmopolitan. They Invade Molds which b fow years ago wore Impracticable. Tho world's products are exchanged as never boforo nud with In creasing transportation facilities come in creasing knowledge nnd trade.
