Surprised and Depressed.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 21.-To-night's bulle-
tin stating that the President had vomited
twice this afternoon was surprise to the
public, and has had a somewhat depressing
effect The surgeons have said of late that
his recovery depended on his stomach that if
it would retain nourishment enough TO i'm
part strength, final recovery ought to be
hoped for In view of this statement of the
case another spell of vomiting is regarded
generally as most unfavorable. DR..
Bliss says, however, that the vomiting
did not proceed from nausea and therefore
does not indicate continued irritability of the
stomach. He says that owing to the swelling
of the gland mucus collection gathers in his
throat which it has been difficult for him to
expell; that this has caused him considerable
annoyance for the last two days, and when he
sleeps this gathering phlegm in his throat
causes retching; that to-day efforts to ex-
pei the phlegm caused q violent spell of
coughing which
ENDED IN VOMITING,
and that a second vomiting followed a fit of
coughing, but not Immediately. Bliss says
that the vomiting came about two hours after
nourishment had been taken into the stomach,
that there was no nausea whatever. and that
all evidence goes to show that the stomach
performs its functions, and is comparatively
free from irritabllity., He said that although
satisfied the vomiting was caused BY
the mucous collections and coughing,
it had been decided to give the stomach short
rest, and that no more nourishment would be
put into it for few hours; that enemata will
be depended upon entirely to sustain him until
If is entirely safe to resume giving food by
mouth. AS the stomach has had this strain,
it is better not to risk irritating it any with
food. He says this statement of the cause of
vomiting was not included in the bulletin
because it would have required too much ex-
PLANTATION to make it understood, and would
have extended the bulletin into a lengthy
document; that the doctors considered the ad.
visibility of making the explanation in the
bulletin, but concluded simply to state the
fact that vomiting had occurred. He says the
first vomiting discharged the contents of the
stomach, but the second about four ounces of
bile, and this cleaned the stomach out The
swelling of the gland is hardened and is pre-
pairing to suppurate.

y This is strong organization of in
fiuential and courageous men who will
put through any enterprise they may
take hold of. There is money enough
within this directory to build the road
and of course they will be able to COM
mand the means.
O. Parties, together with a competent
surveyor, are already upon the line
locating the route. PrOpositionsto vote
subsidies will lie submitted at once.
The people along the'line are enthusi-
astic in its support and will realize in
the building of this line long-felt
need.
The necessities of such road are
a product of necessity Many roads
are built as speculation; some to
answer a public want. A glance at
the map will show you on which side
the line this enterprise lies. There is
Il system of trans-continenta and other
roads at Lincoln, Nebraska. 1t is the
center of a large and productive area of
farms and farmers. There is an mex
haustible field of coal and mineral in
south eastern Kansas near Glrard
Southeast of this and on this projected
line there is an endless supply of pine
and other timbers. Memphis, Tenn,
is upon the great Mississippi, and just
below freezing point. Here, too, is the
great barge line which floats your pro-
ducts out to the ocean and thence to
the markets of the world. These mar
kets want the products of Kansas and
Nebraska. The people of Northern Kan
sas and of Nebraska want the fuel,
mineral and timber of the Southeast.
This road, when built, will be the vehi-
Gle Of exchange, between and bind to-
gether the great northwest and the
great southeast. The commercial
intercourse of these great countries
has heretofore been upon the angle ;
it will then be upon the hypothenuse.
1t is grand conception and in perfect
harmony with the great scheme of
transporting the harvests of this fer
tile country to the barge line now
established upon the Mississippi
river"
{ Now let US add that this is O move
in the right direction and ought to be
encouraged in every possible way.
This project afiords the people of lola
and vicinity, and all along the pros
pective line, a golden opportunity to
put themselves on the line OF what
;will prove to he, when built, one of
Che greatest roads in the west. AS it
is put above, it is in harmony with
the great scheme of connecting the
producing countries of the west and
north with water transportation-in
fact with the open sea and the mar
kets of the world.

terprise and make it a personal matter.
