A private telegram received here today
says that Secretary Long, who is now at
his home in bingham, Mass, has arranged
to take his invalid daughter, Miss Helen
Long, to Colorado Springs, Colo, before
his return to this city. He will be absent
two weeks. Great regret was expressed
today on all sides when the news Of Miss
Longs delicate health became known. 1t
is hoped, however, that a stay at Colorado
Springs will greatly benefit this charming
young woman, who is much liked. 1t is
said that a bad cold, which had its origin
at a dinner given by the Secretary aboard
the Dolphin last spring, has given rise to
pulmonary trouble of serious character.
