collected in the afternoon bent OH vengeance
on the soldiers; but it was Friday, and in
two days it would DO Sunday, and no Bos-
tonian in that day would begin a work for
the finishing Of which there was not plenty
of time before the Sabbath. They were
bent on hammerins the soldiers, but not on
Sunday. So they waited till Sunday had
passed, nursing their wrath in the 1nean-
time The next day, after having relig-
iously attended divine worship, they re-
assembled. They went at it early. Between
and o'clock in the morning several hun
dred men, armed with all kinds of imple-
ments, assembled in Kings (now State) street,
shouting that they would drive out the
soldiers Two hours after they attacked
some soldiers in Dock square. There was 4
good deal of shouting and crying of fire and
tearing up of property; the citizens poured
into the streets; the town was in commo-
ton. This continued through the day, and
before midnight the din of shouting, ringing
of bells and rattle of musketry were per-
feet bedlam.
Finally, as matters were quleting down, q
tall man, Mephistopheles like, in white
wig and scarlet cloak, suddenly appeared
on the scene and commenced to harangue
the crowd, concluding his remarks with the
words, ITO the main guardr' The words
were re-cchoed by his listeners, and divid-
ing in three divisions they went by different
routes to the main guard. One Of the divi-
sions passing the custom house attacked a
sentinel on post. He called on the main
guard for protection, and Capt Preston, the

He sits next to his grandfather at the table
and is the boss of the house when that gen.
tleman is ut home; he has already mastered
that fact, and shouts with the delight of a
suddenly freed child when he sees his great
ancestor coming up the front walk. Little
Ben is the son of j. Robert Mckee and Mrs.
Mamie Harrison Mckee Mr.. Mckee is in
the wholesale boot and shoe trade. and is the
son of one of the wealthiest men in lndianap-
oils. When he won Gen. Harrisons daugh-
ter he was allowed to marry her only on the
condition that the young people would agree
to make their home with the Harrisons, and
this explains why they all have lived to-
gether in the generals house at No GA Della
ware street.
Often when visitors were coming in pla-
toons to see his distinguished grandfather,
young Benjamin Mckee would be carried i'll
on his grandmother's shoulder, and, nesting
there would shake in great glee the hands
of the callers. He also persists in crawling
into the room of the presidentelect, and
helping him confer with party leaders. No
one will restrain HIM, and he seems to know
it. Already he is as big a man as Gen. Har-
rison, and if he keeps on growing, he will
be a strong factor in the next administra-
ton His sister Mary, though not quite able
to help her brother receive visitors, gives
promise of taking much honor to herself in
Washington. 1t is a long time since there
have been babies in the White House, and

Of the long lines of people
BENJAMIN Harrison and Caroline Scott
were married when he was but twenty and
she nineteen years of age, and became the
parents of two children. The first was the
son Russell, and the next was the daughter
Mary Scott Each is living and married.
Russell caught the heart of Minnie, the
daughter of Senator Saunders, of Nebraska,
and lives with her at the head of a stock
farm near Helena, Montana. Mary Harrison
married j. R. Mckee, a merchant in
Indianapolis. While these children were
growing, the father, busy with law cases and
battles and politics. and then with law
cases again, increased his earnings, but
never got them far beyond his constantly
growing expenses Nevertheless the young
Harrisons saw great deal Of society, and
Miss Mamie was quite BELLE They had
dances and receptions for their friends and
made the Harrison home quite social cen
ter in Indianapolis. Russell Harrison never
became prominent in indiana politics, and in
state so intensely political, non-action
means either total indifference to or incapac-
itx for politics. He is a business man, and
rather quiet one Soon after the campaign
began he came to his fathers at the latter's
request, and though he did some work dur
ing the campaign he did it SO quietly and
escaped the newspaper men 50 successfully

Following the death of Senator Conkling,
last spring, there comes that of DR.. Henry B.
Sands, who tried to save the senator, and
who died recently In New York. DR.. Sands
was born in the city in which he lived and
died. He was graduated from the College
of Physicians and Surgeons in 1854, and at
once entered Bellevue hospital, where he
served for time as medical and surgical in
terne He then went to Europe to further
study his profession, but in 1857 was invited
to become demonstrator of anatomy at the

the position.

THE QUESTION OF THE DAY RE-
GAEDING J. S. CLARKsoN, OF IOWA.

The Talk Is Pretty Evenly Divided Be-
tween a Cabinet Portfolio and the Office
of Public Printer-His Paper, the Iowa
State Register, His Homo and His Career.
What will be given to j. S. Clarksoni
He worked faithfully for the success of the
Republican party during the recent cam
paign, and he has always been one of its
fighting men. ....
Whether he will go into the cabinet, the
public printing Office, or SOME other office,
there seems to be general conviction that

James Sullivan Clarkson is the editor Of
The Iowa State Register, at Des Moines, Ia.
one Of the strongest and wealthiest news
papers in the northwest, but he became known
to party fame principally as chairman Of the
Republican national committee during and
following the campaign of 1884. Had the
statesman from Maine been elected, it was
commonly understood that the loyal Iowa
editor could have had any position within
the gift Of the presidency, from the cabinet
down.

DR. HENRY b. SANDS diagnosis in Gen.
Grants case. If an operation had been de-
cided upon DR.. Sands would have performed
it. A carriage was kept in readiness, how
ever, for him to proceed to Gen. Grants
house that he might speedily tie up any ar
teries which might be cut by the cancer.
In the case of Senator Conkling DR.. Sands
was also a consulting physician. DR.. For
dyce Barker was the regular physician; he
called in Drs. Agnew, Sands and Delafield
for consultation. 1t was decided that the
senator was suffering from an abscess behind
the ear and that trepanning operation was
necessary to draw off the pus. The opera
tion was performed by DR.. Sands. 1t was
successfully performed, but did not result in
saving the patients life.
Dr. Sands was especially skillful in operat-
ing Oh gun shot wounds in the intestines.
When the soldier is shot in the bowels he
was formerly regarded as beyond the reach
of surgical aid DR.. Sands, however, per-
formed number of operations in such cases
with success. The doctor was twice married,
leaving two children by his first wife and
one by his second.
