CHICAGO, Sept. 19.-The Morning Neavs
Long Branch special says: A cabinet officer
tells me most pathetic incident of the sick
room. The president was lying quietly in
Ibed when his daughter Mollie entered the
room to see her father. The air in the room
was rather close and the poor girl was so af-
feeted by her feelings that she became giddy
and tainted. She fell to the floor before any
one could assist her, and in SO doing struck
THE beadstead, slightly injuring' her head.
Phe president was conscious and noticing her
fall, said: "Poor Mollie." She fell like a
log.
Same correspondent telegraphs the NewS
THAT the president may not live but few
hours. DR.. Agnew said there was absolutely
no further room for hope, and the end was
Ionly matter of short time.

His Last Moments.

New YoRK, Sept. 19.--A Telegram extra says,
at the presidents bedside, holding his poor,
emaciated hand in ber own and watching with
anguish unutterable the fast vanishing shreds
of life, sat the faithful, devoted wife. Durn :
the closing hours of the presidents career,
around him were weeping friends and the
physicians. lamentldg their powerlessness, in
the presence of the dark angel of death
Toward the last the mind of the sufferer
wandered. He was
ONCE MORE BACK IN MENTOR,
amid those scenes where the happiest hours
of his life were spent. He sat in the dear old
home again, with his loved ones around him
his aged mother so proud of her big
boy, his faithful wife, and beloved chill
dren. 1t was a blissful dream that
ROBBED EATH OF ITS TERRoRs,
and rendered the d ying man for a moment un-
conscious of the cruel rendering of his once
vigorous frame that was constantly going on.
The moan of the restless ocean mingled with
the sobs of the loved ones, as the lamp OF
life fickered and went out forever.
Nearly everyone around the president
clung to hope to the last, and refused to
believe the approach of death till the shadow
deepened and the destroyer's presence could be
no longer unfelt. Flags hang at half mast
from every house on Ocean avenue and the
gaiety of this favorite watering place is fol-
lowed by the deepest gloom. The struggle Is
over and death is the victor.
