came that President Mckinley had
passed away at 2:15 o'clock this morn
ing the crowds which had been on
the streets restlessly and sorrow
fully awaiting news of the end had re-
tired for the night, as had all the gov
eminent officials save few clerks
at the state, war and navy depart
ments. Secretary Hay had given d.
rections what should be done and Act

ployes as soon as they received Off
cial confirmation of the news, immedi-
ately sent cablegrams 10 each and
every United States ambassador and
minister, or the charge, where the
chief diplomatic officials were absent
from their posts, notifying them that
President Mckinley died at 2:15 this
morning in Buffalo and instructing
them so to inform the governments to
which they were accredited.

Secretary Cortelyou was the first to
turn from the stricken circle. He
stepped from the chamber to the outer
hall and then down the stairway TO
the large room where the members of
the cabinet, senators and distin-
guished officials were assembled. AS
his tense, white face appeared at the
doorway a hush fell upon the assem-
blage.
Gentlemen, the president has
passed away" he said.
For moment not word came in

1t is almost certain that an autopsy
upon the presidents body will be held
TO determine the exact cause OF death.
This is the wish of all the surgeons
and physicians who were in attend

presidents heart was more or less of
a puzzle to them all and Dr. McBur-

interest of science as we'll as in the
interest of the government and the

cause of death be determined The

A Wonderful Uird

One day wonderful bird tapped at
the window Of Mrs. Nansen's-wlfe Of
the famous arctic eXplorer-home at
Christiania. Instantly the window
was opened and in another moment
she covered the little messenger with
kisses and caresses.
The carrier pigeon had been away
from the cottage 80 long months, but it
had not forgotten the way home. 1t
brought n note from Nansen, stating
that all was going well with him and
his expedition in the polar region.
Nansen had fastened n message 20
the bird and turned 1t loose.
The frail courier darted out into the
bizzardy air 1t flew like an arrow
over n thousand miles of frozen waste,
and then sped forward over another
thousand miles of ocean and plains
and forests, and one morning entered
the window of the waiting mistress
and delivered the message which she
had been awaiting so anXiously.
: We boast of human pluck, sagacity
NJ endurance, but this loving little
carrier pigeon, in its homeward flight,
after an absence OF 30 months, accom-
plished n feat so wonderful that We
can only give ourselves up to the
Rmazemcnt and admiration which must
oyerwhelm every one when the mar
vdiSus story is told.-Atlanta Constitu-
ton.
