NION SQUARE was the scens yesterday of a most impressive and what in future years will be remembered as an' historical ceremony when a young elm tree from the home of the lamented President McKinley was planted on the Powell- street side of the pleturesque plaza. Through the forethought of Mrs. O, D. Baldwin of this city. the tree was sent here by Mayor Robertson of Cauton, Ohio. The sapling had been taken from Nimissilla Park, Canton, a sylvan re- treat, much loved and often visited by the late President.

He acted suspiciously here and afterwards became intoxieated. The police hadowed him for hours and finally took him into custody.

Alphonse Bousquet has dis- charged a pompom in the French Hos. pital and if bhis resolution passes the gentle . nurses will have to lay aside their dainty caps and snow- white aprons and allow the sisters of reli- glous orders to take their places at the bedside of the patients. Alphonse took care to submit his reso- lution, drawn to bring about such a ge, in cold, bold writing and at such a time when 3200 miles were between him- self and the directors of the French Ben- evolent Socity, for it is said that Alphonse is_at present in Paris. Mons. Alexander Miqueu, the superin- tendent of the hospital, was seen last nignt and jhe stood sponsor for his staff of nurses. He failed to see, he said, why there should be any change, since the nurses were attentive to their duties. There never was such harmony in the in- stitutlon as at present. Each and every nurse, he declared, was as demure as any one of ‘“three little maids from school™ of Gilbertian origin. He expressed his be- lief that the resolution submitted by his friend, Alphonse Bousquet, will be smoth- ered by an avalanche of negative votes. J. M. Dupals, the president of the French | Benevolent Soclety, was seen at a_meet- ing of his confreres and proclaimed him- self confident that Mons. Alphonse Bous- juet’s resolution will fall through and | that the position of the present staff is se- cure from any assault that the ex-super- intendent may contemplate.
