HOLDING HIS OWN
Favorable Progress Since Noon.
The Presidents Appetite Better.
Holding His own.

The noon bulletin shows that the Presi-
dent is moving along evenly, and if not
gaining much is certainly holding his own,
which DIR. Boynton says is as much as they
look for at present. The incision made in
the face this morning was more distinct
than the one made yesterday, which latter
was hardly more than natural discharge.
In order to liberatc the pus which had nc
cumulatcd at another point on the swollen
gland, the knife had to be resorted to.
DIR. Bliss Made the IncisiOn.
and the result is regarded as satisfactory.
A small amount of pus was discharged. The
discharge from the other openings continue
about the same. The inflammation shows
signs of softening to slight degree, but is
not much diminished in size. A free sup
suration will remedy this, it is thought, in
a few days, in which case and in the event
of no new complication all will be clear sail.
ing.
The Presidents Appetite
is getting better. He ate piece of chick
en- to-day and enjoyed it. In order to see
how much the President had fallen away
his limbs were measured this morning, but
the reault is not stated.
