Akon of Nashville, and smiled pleasantly as the president hur ried to the platform steps and gave her his arm, conducting her to a seat by his side and imimdiately in front of Secre tary Portdr and wife. There couldtc no doubt as to the place this yentle woman holds in the hearts of all Americans. The vast audience cheered until it seemed tired out, but commenced again with renewtd vigor,when a large bunch of fragrant roses was handed to Mrs. McKinley, who lowcd her acknowledg ments. When the applause that fol lowed Governor Bushnell's perioration had subsided, President Thomas intro duced the great ligure of the occasion, and Mr. McKinley's face lit up as the audience rose en masse and shouted out cheer after cheer.

Smith of the National Soldiers home, and his wife and daughter, lx'tween 4 and 5 o'clock, by some dastard who is an yet unknown. Dynamite ^.s employed in the outrage and the expulsion, which all but demolished the governor's lieautiful residence, aroust the residents of the city and houses trembled aw if under going an earthquake shock. Mrs. Smith had a miraculous escape from death, the base of the explosion leing directly be in ath her Vied chamber. Besides being cut and bruised by brokqn glass and furniture, she was com pletely prostrated by the frightful shock and is now in a precarious condition. Governor Smith and his daughter, Miss Daisy, occupied^ rooms on the second floor, and were far enough removed from the explosion to escaie the serious consequences suffered by Mrs. Smith. Governor Smith attributes the at tempt on his life and that of his family as a direct result of the persecution that has le#n waged against him during the past six years. The veterans at the heme are standing by him manftNly and swear they will lynch the wretch if he be caught. Joseph W. Oliver, a dishonorably dis charged veteran, has been arrested by the iK)lice of this city. Evidence against him is strong. He had just come to his room after lwing out all night. His clothes are bedraggled and he said he was sorry the explosion had not killed the governor, as he deserved such a fat*. Oliver bears a rough renutation. GERMANY'S ATTITUDE.
