Buffalo, N. Y, Sept. S.-Through
this quiet, peaceful Sabbath every
word that came from the big vine-
clad house in Delaware avenue, in
which the stricken chief magistrate
of the nation lies battling for life,
was reassuring, and tonight the
chances of his recovery are so
greatly improved that all Of those
who have kept the patient vigil at
his bedside feel strongly that his
life will be spared. The Develop
ments of last night and today were
dreaded, but hour after hour passed
and the distinguished patient,
struggling there beneath the
watchful eyes of physicians and
trained nurses, showed no unfavor-
able symptoms. Five times during
the day the eminent doctors and
surgeons assembled for consulta-
tion and each time the verdict was
unchanged-for the better. Not the
slightest prenonitory symptoms OF
peritonitis appeared and the fresh
hope born with the morning grew
stronger as the day advanced, until
toward evening the confidence ex-
pressed in the residents recovery

THE OFFICER SHOT TWICE.
A Policeman Fires Upon a Fleeing Negro
Fighter

A negro named Charlie Young was
twice shot at last night by Officer Banks
but was not hit. though he was arrested.
Young is a little yellow negro Of bad
character and he had gotten into dis
pute with an old negro on East Martin
street, near the corner of Swain street,
and had hit him over the head with bed
slat, making terrible wound.
AT this juncture Officer Banks under
took to arrest Young, but the negro, who
was drinking, naturally objected to this
order of procedure, and he emphasized his
objection also by striking Banks with
the plank and then running. Banks pur-
sued firing twice, whereupon the negro
stopped and submitted to arrest.
The old negro who was struck with the
bed slat is said to be quite badly hurt.
His assailant is now in the city guard

The encouraging news spread ever

rapidity and thousands came in
carriages, street cars and afoot to

And yet, despite all this optimism,
the President is by no means out or

from this time, must elapse before

c0LORED ITEMS.

The B. Y. P. U. met last Sun
day evening at $50 with a good
attendance. The services wei e
conducted at Mt. Horeb M. B.
church. The subject for discus
sion was Temperance" After
discussing the subject fully Miss
Loudella Pullian read the follow
ing paper on temperance, after
which followed several songs:
There is beauty in temperance like
that which is portrayed in virtue and
in truth. 1t is close ally of both, and
like them, has that all pervading es-
sence and quality which chaseneth the
feelings, invigorates the mind and dis
plays the perfection of the soul. Like
water. from the rill, rain from the
cloud or light from the heavenly bod
les, the thought issues pure from with
in, unsullied, refreshing and radiant.
Temperance is a virtue without price
and fortune without envy. 1t keeps
the senses clear and unembarrassed
and makes them seize the object with
more keenness and satisfaction. It is
the sister of prudence and the hand
maid to devotion. Temperance con-
duces to .hsalth. 1t may be said that
health can only be acquired by tenn
perance. This IS the law primary and
essential which every youth should
know. and know by heart. Bodily
pains and aches tell Of intemperance
in some form. Pain means penalty,
means that the sufferer should reform,
We sin by excess Of anger, lust. appe-
tie, etc. few, il any, are the sins that
grow not ont Of intemperanee.
IntempeFance means excess. A thing
Is good as long ss it Is necessary. All
beyond neecesity fsevil. Food is good,
100 much Is evil; light Is good. but too
The Greenville times. [volume] (Greenville, Miss.) 1868-1917, 1901-06-29

much light will put our eyes out; wat
er is good, yet too much water will de-
stroy us; and the praise of men is good,
but too much praise will ruin us. Any
excess in the use or the activity is in
temperance. All species of intemper-
ance grow Of want OF self control.
Prison houses and asylums would be
scarce were breweries and distilleries
not so plentiful. If principle of touch
not, taste not, and handle not should
prevail, the solution of the drink prob
lem would be near at hand. If many
men are today the slaves of drink it is
largely due to the mistaken idea that
they can hold their appetite in check.
But for all this the land is full of sots.
Intemperdnce is the life-blood Of the
gambler and the prop of the highway
man. 1t countenances the liar, re-
spects the thief, esteems the blasphem-
or, and violates obligation. 1t defames
beneyolence, hates love, scorns virtue
and SANDERS innocence. 1t incltes the
father to butcher his helpless offspring,
helps the husband to massacre his wife.
1t burns up men, consumes women,
curses God and detests heaven. In
temperance brings shame, not honor;
terror, not safety; misery, not happi-
ness. 1t also poisons felicity, kills
peace. ruins morals. sIass reputation.
and wipes out national honor: then
curses The world and laughs at its ruin.
II he liquor demon we're destroyed
paradise lost would soon Be Eerained,
and the whole earth would be flooded
with light.

relieves morning sickness and nervousness.
It puts all the organs concerned in perfect
