tinued to show a steady but not rapid
Improvement since she left San Fran

and the president is much encouraged.
She has not yet left her couch, how
ever. DR.. Rixey does not desire to
have her tax her strength. but he per-
mits her to sit up in bed mott OF the
day. The president is at her side much
of the time.
At the place where the Chicago and
Northwestern crosses the Des Moines
river over the new Boone viaduct, said
to be the longest and highest double
track structure in the'world, the train
was halted for ten minutes to permit
the photographers with the party to
take several group pictures of the pres
ident, cabinet and newspaper men. The
train reached Chicago about 3 o'clock
this morning. 1t was not run into the
station, but was switched to the tracks
of the Pennsylvania in the outskirts
of the city.

or 30 minutes will be made to permit
