GETTING USED TO HIS NEW QUARTERS.
Guiteau is getting quite used to the
ways of tho fail. He cleans up his
cell every morning as neatly MS if he
was a practical housekeeper. His
cell is 30 situated as to command a
view of the guards in the rotunda.
He spends most of the time lying
on his cot, and does not seem
much inclined to talk except to make
enquiries about the president. He makes
no complaints of the accommodation
or the prisoners fare, and Sseems to
have no apprehensions of the result
of his trial. The military guard is
still on duty, but there is no sentry
stationed beside the cell.
Mrs. Dredson and Mrs. Garfield
were with the president when the
cabinet officers and Drs. Barnes and
Woodward went home, and soon after
the last official bulletin Mrs. Garfield
went to bed, still full of confidence,
and Mrs. Edison sat by the patient un-
til midnight, when she was relieved
by MI. Swain, with whom Col. Rock
well will keep company during the
rest of the night. Drs. Bliss and Rey-
burn will be near until morning. The
president never complains when it be-
necessary to move him to OK
anime and dress his wounds. He as
sists in this operation to the best of
his ability and asks questions sabout
hts condition. Even after the assas-
sination he asked the doctor to tell
him just how he was. DR.. Bliss
said he had one chance in a thousand
and it is the general belief that the
president will keep his word in taking
the chance.
