nearly the whole evening. As the
night waned, and he seemed to be
yielding to her destinations, she be

prayers. At the close, an altar service was
conducted By Rev Mr. Clark, Presiding FL

WASHINGTON, August III

WASHINGTON, August IL.
Executive Mansion. 4 80 p. M.-The i'm
provement in the Presidents condition which
became apparent yesterday, continues unln-
terrupted. All the pus secreted by the
wound now discharges spontaneously every
day That the quantity is not so large as
heretofore, does not indicate that any is re-
tanned. but is rather an evidence that the
suppurating service is decreasing in extent,
or in other words. that the granulation and
healing are going on favorably in the deeper
parts of the wound.
The surgeons expressed an opinion that
this is the best dav the President has had
since The middle of last week. or since the
beginning Of the febrile disturbance which
led to an operation on Monday.
Then patient had a breakfast between ten
and eleven o'clock this forenoon, consisting
of broiled chicken, a piece of toast saturated
with beef juice and cup of tea; in addi-
ton to this, he has taken at intervals during
the day, milk, meat extract and other nour-
ishment enough to make an aggregate of
about twenty-five ounces of solid and LIQUID
food. He has been free from fever through
out the entire day. His pulse has ranged
from 100 at the morning examination to 104
at the present hour.
