Huge bouquets Placed Beside Their
Cots In the Hospital.
Firemen McEiwee and Donaldson were
seen at the hospital by a Times reporter
this morning. DR.. Ramsburg, the house
surgeon, with Drs. Bayne, Crook, and
Marbury, mas done all that is possible
for them, and there is every prospect that
they will get well.
McEiwee is easy and apparently quite
cheerful. Donaldson, who is badly scalded
and burned, in spite of most careful and
scientific treatment, suffers much and was
less hopeful.
Huge bouquets OF roses stood at the head
of each cot and made the room brighter and
more homelike. Sister Beatrice said that
many flowers with expressions df SYM
pathy had been sent to all the men while
there and many visitors expressing earnest
hopes aud prayers for their recovery had
been turned away, as only the immediate
relatives could be admitted.
She added that the report that ward
for the fireme had been endowed at the
hospital was only partially correct. A few
years ago Mr.. Gait heard that a cot for
policemen had been set apart with fund
for its support at Garfield Hospital.
He said he thought none deserved better
Of the community than the firemen, and
he gave 81 900 to endow cot at Provi-
dence Hospital for the benefit of sick or
injured firenen.
The sisters were glad to weIcone all who
were sent. She thought they deserved more

Mr.. German had interested hirrseH Some

REFUSED THE sTIMULANT.
During the afternoon and night he ap-
| peared TO grow better, in spite Of his suf-
| sering AT one time he asked for drink
! Of ice water, but this could not be given
| aim.
He then asked for wate- without ices
| and the sister told him he must take some
stimulant with whatever he drank. He
understood that he was to take whisky,
| and said emphatically he didn't want 1t.
The sister then brought him a cup Of strong
coffee.
At midnight he was apparently resting
easy, but his mother and wife. and his
wife's father. Mr.. Morris Curry. RENAME ed
at his bedside About q. m. be began
20 move uneasily, and Occa asionaliy uttered
low means.
His young wife was driven almost fran
tie at the first appcc rance of these symp-
IONS. and as they rapidly became mos
pronounced she flung herself down by his
cot in heartbroscn despair. The death
rattle in the poor sufferers throat was fol-
lowed presently by a few convulsive move
ncntS and George Kettler was gone.
Mrs. Kettier lay in faint beside his
tenderiy borne away and revived. In the
early morning she was able to return TO
1er home, No. 135 D street southeast,
where the remains were brought soon after
and laid out.
Then dozens OF friends called during the
day for a last look, while a number Of rela-
hves remained with Mrs. Kettler and tried
to comfort her. Among them were her
brothers and sisters on both sides She
continued in outbursts OF uncomfortable
grief, and could not be allowed to go into
the room where the body lay.
1t is only a few months since the two
were married by Rev. DR.. Rice at Trinity

day. Flowers were sent in by relatives
and intimate friends, by acQuaintauces.
and in some cases by persons who had cnly

George W. KettIer had barely reached
manhood. He was twenty-three years and
ten months old. He was a native of the
District and had lived here all his life.
