McKinley to Be Placed on Gold Statue for Paris
Report says Ada Rehan silver Montana statue at the world fair will be rivaled by a life sized solid gold statue of President McKinley. F D Higby of Chicago has been hired by Western millionaires to finance and construct the Paris 1900 exhibit piece. He visited New York to secure the president's consent and expects a base valued at one million fifty thousand dollars. Plans target Cayuga Island Niagra river area for a 1899 Pan American exhibit, with completion to precede that display.

Slicing Criminals in China Revealed as Brutal Execution
A report outlines China’s slicing method where a boy of eleven is executed for killing his mother under a strict law. The condemned is strapped, and a knife dismembers the body to maximize suffering until death, leaving little chance of survival. The piece contrasts this with British constitutional norms in the Lords and Commons, noting the house as a whole, not the lord chancellor, speaks for order and procedure. The column ends with a quip about caution in public conduct and photography.
