Cured in the Temple Of Music as the
result Of the shots fired by the anar-
chist. AS soon as the crowd began to
realize the meaning Of the situation,
there followed a panic. Regardless Of
consequences, the crowd surged for
ward Men fought, women screamed
and children cried. Some of those
nearest the door fled in fear of stam-
pede, and people outside, attracted by
the commotion, rushed in to see what
was the matter. During five or ten
minutes the crush was dreadful, and
the pressure was relieved only as
the crowd became more. enlightened as
to what had occurred, and by the
strenuous efforts of large force Of ex-
position guards, who applied their ut
most skill and firmness to the work.
AS soon as the pressure had been
sufficiently relieved from the interior
of the building, the president was TAX
en- out and conveyed to the hospital in
an ambulance. The ablest surgeons of
the city had already been summoned,
and no time was lost in getting to
work. The bullet that had entered the
chest was found not to have produced
serious wound, and 1t was removed
without difficulty All the danger there
was lay in the wound in the abdomen.
The abdomen was opened through the
line of the bullet wound. 1t was found
that the bullet had passed entirely
through the stomach and lodged in the
muscles Of the back. There was no in
Jury to the intestines. The openings
in the stomach were closed with silk
stitches, and the outside incision was
sewed up in the same manner. The
president stood the operation we'll, and
at it's conclusion at o'clock p. m, was
in a condition which, in the opinion
of the doctors, seemed to justify the
hope of recovery.
BY this time Mrs. Mckinley had been
informed of the tragedy as gently as
possible. She held up under the news
we'll, and expressed the wish that the
president be removed to the residence
of Mr.. Milburn if the removal could be
effected without danger. The physi-
clans gave it as their opinion that no
harm could result. and the removal was
effected between and s o'clock in an
automobile ambulance belonging to the
hospital. Arrived at the residence, Dr.
Roswell Parke continued the task of
probing for the bullet that had enter
ed the stomach, and finally succeeded
in locating it as stated; but made no
effort to remove 1t.
The doctors gave out that in their
opinion the wounds had been success
fully Investigated and that there was
no immediate danger of the presidents
life. The thing most to be feared was
that peritonitis would set up within
from three to five days. Except in the
event of peritonitis, the presluent was
safe; otherwise the period through
which he would pass would be ex-
tremely critical. 1t was explained al
so that, as a rule, such operations as
had been performed were safe within

handkerchief and seized the revolver.
The artillery men seized the revolver
in Gallagher's hand. rushed at him and
handled him rather roughly. Mean
while Ireland and the Negro held the
assassin, endeavoring to shield him
from the attacks of the infuriated ar
tillerymen and the blows Of the police
mems clubs.
Supported by Detective Geary and
President Milburn and surrounded
by Secretary George B. Cortelyou and
half a dozen exposition officials, the
president was assisted to a chair. His
face was very white; but he made no
outcry and sank back with one hand
holding his abdomen and the other
fumbling at his breast. His eyes were
open and he was clearly conscious of
all that had happened.
He looked up into President Milburn's
face and gasped "Cortelyou." The
presidents secretary bent over him.
"Cortelyou," said the president, my
wife. Be careful about her. Don't let
her know"
Moved by pain he writhed to the
left, and then his eyes fell on the pros
trate form Of his would-be murderer,
who lay on the floor, helpless be-
meath the blows Of the guard, the
president raised his right hand and
placed it on the shoulder Of his secre-
tary. LET no one hurt him." he said,
and then he sank back in the chair
while the guards carried Czolgoz away.
The president continued conscious
and conversed with Mr.. Cortelyou and
Mr.. Milburn on his way to the hospi-
tai.
II am sorry" he said, Ito have been
the cause of trouble to the exposition" +"
Three thoughts had found expression
with the president-flrst, that the news
should be kept from his wife; second,
that the assassin should not be harmed,
and third regret that the tragedy might
hurt the exposition.

it's height that the United States has
never had a president Of purer life or
one who was so generally beloved by
the people.
The presidents wife, to whom he is
most chivalrously and beautifully de-
voted, has been an invalid for most
of the time since they were married.
She has only recently recovered from
a severe illness incurred on her visit to
the Pacific coast with the president

PNEUMONIA LEADS.
Fifteen Principal Maladies That
Cause Most Deaths.

To the average reader the information
contained in the census statistics in
which is shown the relative fatality OF
the more common ailments to whose
ravages the people Of this country are
subject comes as something OF sur
prise. The disease which leads the list
in the number Of deaths which are
chargeable to its attacks is not the one
which in the general belief has been
rated the severest scourge.
Among the Is maladies to which the
larger number Of people succumb, con-
sumption stands second; not first.
Pneumonia outranks 1t in point Of IA
tality, although only slightly. 1t, as
the governments latest figures show, is
the most deadly Of all American dis
eases. 1t is the cause Of 1911 Of every
900 deaths. Consumption is yet but
little behind it, however, as Destroy
er Of humanity. To tuberculous attacks
are attributed 1905 of the fatalities in
each 100000. Heart disease follows as
the third, its average number Of vic
Tins in the 1000 being 134.
Following these three most faithful
adjutants of the grim specter Of the
glass and scythe" come IL others which,
according to the census showing, in the
order given, may be reckoned the most
destructive to life within the territorial
limits to which the statistics apply.
They are: Diarrhoeal diseases, kidney
diseases, apoplexy, cancer, old age.
bronchitis, cholera infamtum. debility,
Inflammation Of the brain and menin-
gifts, diphtheria, typhoid, premature
birth.
Smallpox, it will be noted, does not
appear on the list, although only a COM
paratively few years ago it was re-
garded by the people generally as one Of
the scourges Of which humanity stood
most in dread. Now, aside from the
inconvenience involved in compliance
with the requirements for prevention
Of it's contagious effects it is occasion
for little more concern than the minor
ailments whose fatal possibilities are
looked upon as so remote as scarcely
to merit consideration. Gratifying re-
suits due to progress In medical scence
are evident, too, in the showing as to
the decreased fatality of consumption.
Only decade ago It's victims numbered
2449 in every 100000, and that disease
ranked as the most deadly of all. In 10
years, as the figures indicate, its de-
structiveness has been reduced more
than rs per cent. and the present out
look gives promise of yet more rapid
advancement toward immunity from
it's ravages.-Kansas City Journal.

VERY HARD TO FIND.
Butternies and Other Gaudy Moths, When Asleep, Look Exactly
 Like Their BedS.

The butterfly invariably goes to sleep head downward, it's eyes look ing straight down the stem of the grass. It folds and contracts its wings to the utmost, partly, perhaps, to wrap its body from the cold. But the effect is to reduce its size and shape to a narrow ridge, making an acute angle with the green stem. hardly distinguishable in shape and color from the seed heads on thou sands of other stems around. It also sleeps on top of the stem, which increases it's likeness l. natural finial of the grass.
 Side by side with the "blues" sleep the common 'brown heaths." They use the grass stems for beds, but less carefully, and with no such obvious solicitude to compose their limbs in harmony with the eyes of the plant. They also sleep with their heads downward, but the body is allowed to drop sideways from the stem like a leaf. This, with their light color ing, makes them far more conspicu- ous than the blues. Moreover, as grass has no leaves shaped in any
 
 contrast of shape attracts notice. Can if be that the blues, whose bril- liant coloring by day makes them conspicuous to every enemy, have learned caution, while the brown heaths, less exposed to risk, are less careful of concealment?
 Be it noticed that moths and but terfies go to sleep in different atti- tudes. Moths fold their wings back upon their bodies, covering the lower wing, which is usually bright in color, with the upper wing. They fold their antennae back on the line of their wings. Butterflies raise the wings above their bodies and lay them back to back, putting their antennae be- tween them if they move them at all. Cincinnati Enquirer.

United in Life ana Death.

Buck and Brandy were brindled oxen, a yoke of renown throughout the coun- tryside. They had horns yard from tip to tip, intelligent, black-nosed white-starred faces and beautiful bushy tails. Broken together a a year old, they worked and played and grazed side by side until they were rising seven. Then Brandy, falling lame, was turned out for long rest, his owner thinking to fatten and sell him in the fall. Buck at once quit work. Yoked to cart or blow or OK wagon, he would simply lie down. The goad could not move him. As soon as he was free, though he had never in his life tried to jump . fence or throw one down, he straiRhtway made a breech somewhere and went through it to his comrade. As . result his owner sold two stall-fed oxen in place of one. In death, e in life, the pair were net divided.

Newspapers in Melbourne and Sydney have offered prizes for designs for a. tional banner. The design shown in this drawing was recently awarded a prize, and is. so far, the favorite with the public. The six red stripes stand for the five states of Australia and Tasmania which are in the confedera- tion. The union jack signifies the con- nection with Great Britain, and the five stars in the field are those Of the south ern cross, the best known of the south ern constellations. Altogether it means: The United States of Austra- lia under the rule Of Great Britain. lit by the stars of the southern cross. The contest, which was closed February 1, excited the widest popular interest throughout Australia. The adoption of the design will rest with the Austra- Han congress.

Standing room was at q premium at St Patrick's church last night, every seat in the mammoth structure being occupied before the service opened. A large delegation of the K. of c. at tended in a body, the men attracting a good deal of attention as they marched through Bank street, en route to the church. Solemn vespers were sung, with the Rev Father Jordan as celebrant. The music was of high order.
 The Rev Father Neale, of Terry vile. delivered the sermon. 1t was brief, but to the point, so that the speaker said a great deal, and said it well, too. in a remarkably short time. He reviewed the life of St Patrick, and talked interestingly upon 1reland's $ golden age, when students from all parts of Europe fiocked to her institu- tions of learning. Coming down to later period, he said:
 But soon came the prosecutions of England. Churches were desecrated, schools and colleges were burned. Ed ucation at home or abroad became a crime; fidelity to ones conscience q felony. This was England's idea of liberty of worship and of. bearing the white mans burden in those days. Shame on the cant and hypocrisy of England, whose penal laws against Ireland would make q Nero blush If, as Plato says, a just man struggling with diversity is the most meritorious spectacle in the eyes of God,' what shall be said Of a whole nation strug- gling for centuries for her very life, and for the right to worship God ac- cordfng to the dictates of her own conscience? Yet amid all the perse- cutfOns and wrongs of centuries, Ire land has never forgotten the faith of St Patrick. It's national name is sym onymous with the term Catholic. While we have the right to be proud tonight

AUSTRALIA'S FLAG.
New Antipodean Confederation May Adopt . Design Pafterned After
 the Stars and Stripes.

Every country finds a distinctive na- tional flag a necessity. The United States had very little trouble in design ing one for itself. The colonial flag, which con sisted of 13 red and white stripes and the union jack on blue field, was made over into a very satis- factory banner by leaving off the union Jack and filling in the field with white stars.
 Australia. whose government was changed from that of a colony to 9 confederation of states on the 1st of January, has as yet no official flag to distinguish the country among nations.

in recalling our country s former great. ness and present. fidelity, let us not forget that we bear in our hearts the faith of St Patrick and all its respon- sibilities, while never for . moment unmindful of our duties to the coun- try of our adoption, do not forget the old land beyond the sea-be true to her and her traditions. Surely in His own good time, God will restore her to her place among the nations of the earth and bless her latter end more than her beginning"
 Father Neale referred to the much talked of Anglo-American alliance, and while he did not say much on the sub- ject, still he made it plain that he be- lieves it the part of wisdom for Uncle Sam to keep clear of alliances with Great Britain and reminded his hear CTS of the old adage, "He who sups with the devil should have long spoon.'
 The ushers were John Mitchell, Pat rick Reilly, Michael McKenna, Pat rick O'Brien, James Temple, Thomas Courtney and Patrick Clark.
