BETTER THAN GOLD "What C. PY. Huntingdon Said About Rubber. C. P. Huntington said: "If I had my life to live over again, I would not wear It away in the hard struggle that falls to the lot of the railroad promoter. I would go into the tropics of Mexico and grow rubber. It is better than gold and it will make more millionaires than oil has made." Experience proves Mr. Huntington's judgment to be correct. There is more money in rubber than in gold. The best investment for any man or woman is an interest iv a good rubber plantation. The Tabasco Plantation* company, inc., offers everyone an opportunity to invest their money where it will be absolutely safe and pay large dividends. By paying small sums of from $2.50 to §50 per month you can obtain an interest which will pay Ifcou moderate dividends every year, and at the end of seven years will bring you in come enough to live upon. This company wants everyone to investigate their prop osition. You will not hesitate to invest when you find out how thoroughly reli able the company is.

LEFT FOR CANTON Departure of the Funeral Train From Washington. WEIRD SCENES IN THE NIGHT Train Divided Into Three Section*, Leaving- at Ten-Minute Interval*. Washington, Sept. 18.—The last chapter of the sad ceremonial, the removal of the remains of the late president to the grave at his old home at Canton, Ohio, began at 8:20 o'clock last night when the funeral train left here over the Pennsylvania rail road. The great bronze doors of the capital In which the body had lain in state had closed while there were still thousands of people waiting to get a last glance at the casket. The guards at the capital who had patiently throughout the long day held the crowd in leash were permitted a hurried look at the face of the deceased; the cover of the casket was screwed down by the undertakers; it was lifted once more upon the shoulders of the bearers and by them borne to the hearse at the foot of the east steps of the capital. "Steady, men," said General Randolph, as they walked slowly out between the bronze doors with their precious burden. They scarcely needed the injunction, for every step was guardedly taken and they consumed four minutes in descending the broad stairway. Thirty minutes time was required for the removal of the body from the capitol to the train. The escort on this journey consisted of committees from the army and navy and two squadrons of the elev enth cavalry. The route was down Penn sylvania avenue, which was lined on either side by troops of the District of Columbia. It was a quiet, noiseless journey, without music. Not a drum was heard, nor a fu neral note, nor was there a sound from the crowd which lined the broad street. At the Pennsylvania railroad station there was a dense throng, and the remains were received by large delegations of army and naval officers. There the sol diers and seamen carried the casket from the hearse to the observation car, placed in the second section of the funeral train. Covered With Flower*. The casket was placed on standards draped with the national colors. It was covered with floral emblems. No less than twenty cars were required for the trans portation of the funeral party to Canton. To-day still another train will carry to Canton a large party of ienators and representatives and others prominent in national life. The three sections into which the train was divided left at 10 minute intervals. The second section was the presidential train proper, made up of practically the same seven cars which made the trip from Buffalo. The car Olympia was assigned to Mrs. McKinley, while the car Edgemere, which came next, was occupied by the president and his cabinet. Behind in or der came the sleepers Naples and Bel gravia, the dining car Waldorf and a com bination car. On this train were the following passen gers : Mrs. McKinley and maid; Mr. and Mrs. Abner McKinley, Mr. and Mrs. A. J. Duncan, Miss Helen McKinley, Mrs. M. C. Barber, Miss Barber, Dr. and Mrs. P. L. Baer and maid; Lieutenant James Mc- Kinley, Miss Sarah Duncan, Captain and Mrs. Lafayette McWilliams, William Dun can, Frank Osborne, Mrs. Seward Bow man, Mrs. E. A. Stafford, Dr. and Mrs. Rixey, Charles G. Dawes and Mrs. Dawes, Colonel G. F. Mack, Colonel W. C. Brown, Major Charles E. Miller. Burt Miller, Miss McKenzie and Miss Hunt (nurses), Mrs. Henry Mathews, P. C. Schell and wife, Mrs. Rand, Mrs. J. A. Porter, President Roosevelt, Secretary Root. Attorney Gen eral Knox, Postmaster General and Mrs. Smith, Secretary Long, Secretary and Mrs. Hitchcock, Secretary and Miss Wilson, Secretary and Mrs. Cortelyou, Assistant Secretary Hill, Assistant Secretary Barnes, Colonel B.

Dean, Captain Henry Leonard, General Harrison Gray Otis, A. N. H. Aaron, H. B. F. MacFarland, Ell Torrance, represent ing the G. A. R., and the bodyguard con sisting of two officers and sixteen men. Army and Navy Officers. The third section of the train was de voted entirely to the accommodation of the army and navy officers. There were Generals Brooke, Otis and Gillespie, Ad miral Dewey and Rear Admirals Crownin shield, Oneill, Bradford, Melville, Bowles and Farquhart, General Heywood, com mandant of marines, and a number of junior officers of the army and navy. Lieu tenant General Miles'is to take passage on this train at some intermediate point between here and Canton, and Governor Nash and two of his staff are to join it at Pittsburg. President Roosevelt's arrival at the train occurred at 7:50 and was unmarked by incident. His brother-in-law, Captain Cowles, of the navy, accompanied him. It was just before 8 o'clock when Mrs. McKinley was driven to the station. Fear ing the tiring effect of the long walk from the carriage entrance to the car set apart for her next to the head of the train, a rolling chair had been provided for her. She declined this, however, and walked with surprising firmness to her place, as sisted by Abner McKinley and Dr. Rixey. It was 8:10 o'clock when this section steamed away in the darkness, the first section having preceded it ten minutes. The observation car hearing the remains was flooded with light. Through its crys tal sides could be seen the beautifully draped casket with its mass of rare blos- Boms, so arranged that even as the train swept through the night the people in the country it passed through might gaze on the sight of the casket with a soldier standing grimly at the head and a sailor, carrying his cutlass upon his shoulder, at the foot. A guard of soldiers and sailors occupied the platforms, and be tween them at the rear was a mammoth wreath six feet in diameter of rare orchids aad laurels. Ten minutes later the third section of the train bearing the army and navy officers sped away, and the national capital had performed its part m the funeral ceremonies. CANTON PROGRAM Hour for Services Is (hanged to l:3O p. m. Canton, Ohio, Sept. 18.—Canton is ready for the last home-coming of Wil liam McKinley. All day long hundreds of men and women labored in their task to arrange the decorations on the public buildings, on the fronts of commercial houses and over the windows and porticos of private residences. Canton is shrouded in black, and so she will remain until the body of her best-loved son has been com mitted to the vault in Westlawn ceme tery. From early morning until late in the evening there was a constant procession of visitors moving along N Market street to the McKinley horne —a house easily dis tinguished from all others on the street in that it is the only one not draped in black. There is to-day no sign of mourn ing on the house, nor will there be until the dead president has been borne through its doorway on Wednesday night. As far as lies within its presen^power, the local committees have completed their arrangements for the funeral. Wednes day's program is arranged and Thursday's, too, if word would but come from Wash ington giving approval of the plans sug gested. To-day upon its arrival at 11 a. m., the train will be met by members of the local reception and executive committees, by hundreds of the personal friends of President McKinley and by the following gentlemen who have been selected fromj Washington to act as honorary pallbearers during the services in Canton: John C. Dueber. Joseph Biechele. George B. Frease. Henry W. Harter. R. A. Cassldy. William A. Lynch. William R. Day. Thomas T. McCarthy, Troop A of Cleveland, will act as escort in the march from the Pennsylvania de pot to the courthouse, where the body will h> in state. n,eie win bo no attempt at forming a col-imn. The cavalry will lead the way, the hearse drawn by four coal black horses will follow, and then will come the carriages bearing the mem bers of the family and the distinguished visitors. The casket will be placed in the rotunda of the courthjuse, and as soon as posible the doors will be opened to allow the cit izens of Canton the opportunity of paying their last tribute of respect to the dead president. Large detachments of militia and police will be present to facilitate the handling and the movement of the crowds, and, as the time allowed for the casket in the courthouse is considered none too long, every effort will be made to expedite matters. The crowd will be formed in line, four abreast at the south door jf the court house, the line to extend westward on W Tuscarawas street. Admission will be by ranks of four and the ranks will be moved rapidly. Until It o'clock at night the body will remain in the courthouse, and immediate ly after that hour it will be taken to the family residence on N Market street. Canton post G. A. R., composed almost entirely of members of President McKin ley's old regiment, the Twenty-third Ohio, will escort the body to the house. That is as far as the definite program of the Canton committee extends at present. It is their wish that early on the morn ing of Thursday the body be returned to the courthouse and again lie in state un til it is time ■to leave for the First Methodist church, where the funeral ex ercises are to commence at 2 o'clock, but j whether the family will agree to this Is j not known as yet. The time allowed for | the entire exercise 3in the church is forty- I five minutes. The program is not entirely | arranged for the services, but they will be simple—a discourse by Rev. C. E. Man chester of the First Methodist church, a prayer by Rev. O. B. Milligan of the Pres byterian church, and a scripture reading by some clergyman not yet selected. A quartet composed of Mrs. W. H. Smith, Miss Rachael Frease, F. J. Melbourne and Ralph Brown will sing "Lead Kindly } Light," and a second quartet composed of j Misses Mattie Living, Fannis Levinger, j Jeanette Bayhof and Katherine Baehrens, will sing selected hymns. At the conclu sion of the services in the church the slow march to the cemetery will be taken up. The casket will be placed in the re ceiving vault, but before it is placed in side, the casket will be rested upon sup ports standing upon the stone walk lead ing to the vault. This will be for the pur- i pose of allowing these who have taken [ part in the parade, and who have been prevented by their duties from being pres ent in the courthouse, to have an oppor tunity of viewing the remains. If the ! present program is carried out the casket will remain on the walk outside the vault from one to two hours. When finally placed inside the vault a guard will be thrown around it day and night, and until its final resting place is prepared it will be surrounded by armed men. . The local executive committee held a protracted meeting last night and decided that the hour for the commencement of the funeral exercises at the First Meth odist church on Thursday should be 1:30 instead of 2 o'clock, as previously ar ranged. It was decided that the line of march from the depot this morning will be on Tenth street to Cherry street to Tuscarawas street and thence to the courthouse. The funeral car will be halted at the southeast corner of the building and the body borne to the south entrance, through which it will be con veyed and placed in the rotunda. Troop A of Cleveland, after having escorted the body of the president to the courthouse, will escort Mrs. McKinley to her home and will than escort President Roosevelt, the members of the cabinet, Lieutenant General Miles and Admiral Dewey to the residence of Mrs. Elizabeth Harter, which stands on North Market street not far from the McKinley homestead. A detachment of the national guard will i be posted around the Harter residence and j also around Mrs. McKinley's home. Mem- i bers of Troop A will guard the body of the ; president while it lies in state in the courthouse. S NO MEDICAL QUARREL President's Physicians Deny Any Serious Disagreement. • Buffalo, N. V., Sept. 18.— following statement has been given out by the ! physicians who attended President Mc- Kinley during his last illness: "The undersigned surgeons and physi cians, who were in attendance on the late President McKinley, have had their atten tion called to certain sensational state ments recently published indicating dis sensions and recrimination among them. "We desire to say to the press and public, once for all, that every such pub lication and all alleged interviews with any of us containing criticism of one another or of any of our associates"'are false. "We say again that there was never a serious disagreement among the profes i sional attendants as to any of the symp toms or as to the treatment of the cause or as to the bulletins which were issued. A very unusual harmony of opinion and action prevailed all through the case. "The unfortunate result could not have been foreseen before the unfavorable symptoms declared themselves late on the sixth day, and could not have been pre vented by any human agency. "Pending the completion and publication of the official reports of the post mortem we shall refuse to make any further state ments for publication, and alleged inter views with any of us may be known to be fictitious. "—Matthew D. Mann. "Roswell Park. "Hermann Mynter. ". "George Wasdin. '-: . "J. H. Stockton." NOT EMBALMED Face of the Dead President May Be No More Exhibited. Jf»u> Torh Sun Special Servicv . . Washington, Sept. 18.—< It Is doubtful if the people of Canton, Ohio, and those who go there will be allowed to look at the face of the dead president. Owing to the con dition of his internal organs after his death it was Impossible to embalm the president properly. An attempt was made, but with little success. As a con sequence the face is already changing color and it is thought that decomposition will be so far advanced 'by Thursday, that it will be inexpedient to take off the lid of the coffin, although the undertakers may be able to restore the color of the face. The thousands who saw the dead chief ex ecutive were shocked at the wan and wasted appearance of his face and 'body and by the discolorations that have - already begun to appear. . , . .....

It says: As the Savior was kissed, betrayed and died, so may our martyred president have been slain by another Judas for some better ment of the present or future race. May you find some solace in this thought. Tale mes sage is sent by and voices the sentiment of 400 men of almost every creed, religion and race.
