M'JzzLE ALL DOGS
st. Paul Aldermen Hold Special Session
5t} ON CANNES, $3.50

81. Paul Aldermen Hold Special Session
ON CANNES. s,3i
ST. PAUL, May 80. .- The day brought
new reports Of persons bitten by dogs
suspected of rabies. The reports are so
numerous that special session Of the
common council has been called to con-
slder an ordinance to compel the own
ers OF dogs to mnzzle them until the
outbreak of hydrophobia has passed.
Health Commissioner Stone has had
an ordinance drawn to compel the
muzzling Of all dogs that are. allowed
TO run at large. It will be introduced
by Alderman Wolf and there is but
little doubt Of it's passage, though some
minor changes may be made. This ac-
tlon is taken owing to the fact that lit
tle or no attention; has been paid to the
proclamation Of Mayor Smith request
ing the muzzling Of dogs. Almost
everyone seems to think that the OBJ
Ject sought in the proclamation is q
worthy one, but, if he happened to be
the owner of a dog, has argued that
ms canine was too gentle to ever bite
any one and therefore there was no
need in his case to use a muzzles I'll
In substance the ordinance that will
be introduced requires the muzzling of
every dog and it goes into. effect 1im-
mediately upon its passage. In. case
any dog is found running at large, un-.
muzzled, after the passage Of the ordi-
nance, authority is given to the police
to shoot him without further ado.

fallen to the share of most secretaries OF
state. His treatment of these were
marked by the strong individuality which
was part of the man.
Personal Characteristics.
In appearance Gresham was somewhat
slender in youth remarkably so-six feet
tall, his black hair and beard turned to an
iron grey. His eyes were hazel, full and
large, with the power ito threaten and
command" but soft and amiable in famil-
lar conversation. His voice was pleasing
and consorted well with his habitual de-
meanor, which was quiet and modest.
AS a man he was generous and frank.
He was social and approachable. 1t was
in his home life that he was most to be
admired In 1858 he married Miss Matilda
McGrain, the daughter Of Thomas Nc
Grain, man of Scotch-Irish descent. A
son and daughter were born to them, who
live in Chicago. He was devoted to wife
and children This side of his life the
public knew nothing of, but it furnishes
the best key to his nature and character
In the glare of the public footlights t1nsel
and glitter pass for gold. It was in the
soft glow of the fireside that his heart was

o'clock he began to fail rapidly and his
vitality began to ebb. The three ply
sicians saw that the end was near, and
at 10 O. clock withdrew to the anteroom,
leaving in the sick chamber only the
members of his family, Mrs. Gresham,
her daughter, Mrs. Andrews, and SON.
in-law, Mr.. Andrews, and the nurses.
Up to that time he had been conscious
and talked at intervals. His words
were full of bravery. He fully appreci-
ated his condition and spoke
Words. of Hope and Cheer
to his stricken wife and daughter.
Some times his mind slightly wan
dered and went back to the days Of
long ago, recalling incidents of life and
happiness in the spring time Of his life.
He spoke, too, Of his absent son and his
private secretary, Mr.. Lands, whom
he loved as a son, and who, like his
son, was speeding to his bedside, all too
late. 80
& At l:15 his breathing ceased, peaceful
shadows passed over his pale counten-
ance, his pulse fickered and the sor-
rowing family were in the presence of
death. One of the nurses conveyed the
news that the end had come to the
physicians in the next room, and they,
in turn, broughtsit to the watchers in
the reception room.
The secretary's Last Illness.
Ss When Secretary Gresham was taken
sick -four weeks ago the physician di-
agnosed the case as stone in 3 the
bladder. His plenrisy symptoms
were overlooked for almost s6
hours. AS soon as Dr.. w. w. John
ston, who is now the attending physi-
clan, was called in, he discovered that
the secretary was suffering from an
acute case Of pleurisy, probably caused
by exposure while riding out to Wood
ley, the presidents country place, at
night. In the meantime the gall stone
had passed. The secretary right lung
was already affected, the cavity being
already filled with pleuratic fluid, his
Respiration Rose to 43.
The physicians decided not to tap the
cavity, but to rely upon absorption to
rid it Of the exuded fluid. Gradually
Secretary Gresham grew better. The
respiration was reduced almost to nor
NAL. Last Saturday when DR.. Johnston
thought all danger past, the left lung
suddenly became affected and filed
rapidly. Since then either DIR. Johnston
or the consulting physician have been
ut his bedside constantly, as have Mrs.
Gresham, and the secre :.;;::- -. ~
