that he was educated i'll the public

first and then through Emma Gold

anarchists went to hear her. She set
me on fire.

"NOt until Tuesday morning did the

there was no escape for me- l could
not have conquered it had my life

of people in town on Tuesday. / heard

bravely. and her fortitude under the
circumstances is regarded as remark
able. One of her dearest and closest
friends. Mrs. Rand. of Washington. has
arrived here and will probably remain
with her during this trying period.
There was one exception Saturday TO
the exclusion from the presidents
room of all except professionals. and
that was in the admission of Mrs. Nc
Kinley. The president asked to see
her. and his physicians did not have
the heart TO refuse his request.
She was there but n few minutes
seated at his bedside. as he. in his de-
votion to her in her illness. has so
often been mt hers. Mrs. Mckinley
had been warned not to talk, and the
president and his wife exchanged only
n few words. 1t was only when he
asked her to be brave for both their
sakes that she faltered and almost
irOke down. With choking throat and
brimming eyes she promised with a
bow of her head. Almost immediate
ly thereafter she was led from the
room by DIR. RiXey. Mrs. Mckinley

No Probability of n Transfer of Authority
co Roosevelt.
All yesterday the members OF the
cabinet and others associated with the
president in public life came solicit
ously and went away almost jubilant-
ly. all rejecting the hopeful outlook
at the Milburn home. Vice President
Roosevelt received the earlier bulle-
tins, and after going to church hur-
ried to the residence. There he was
joined by Senator Hanna. They came
away together and gave expression to
the most confident and encoura ging
sentiments. Hanna went again during
the afternoon, and was seldom far re-
moved from the Milburn house. Sec
retary Root has taken up quarters i'm
mediately next door. There was no
time during the day when some men,
ber of the cabinet was not In the house
where his stricken chief lay. But
even those most prominent in public
life did not see him, as the doctors
would not relax the iron-clad rule they
have laid down to prevent the least
drain upon his energies and vitality.
All of the members Of the cabinet
are now here. except Secretaries Hay
aud Long. and they are coming. They
do not believe that there is the most re-
mote possibility that Vice President
Roosevelt will be called upon to eXer-
else the functions of chief magistrate
under the disability clause of the con-
stitution while the president lives. Vice
President Roosevelt would not hear OF
such course. Still, in the event of
grave international complications an
emergency might occur, and the ques-
tion has arisen in their minds as to
who should proclaim the disability pro-
Vided for by the constitution. That

Thus far the ball of the assassin.

not deem it advisable to sap any of
the presidents strength at this time.
All his reserve force is needed now TO
resist the danger of peritOnitis and

His First Natural Sleep.
The presidents mind was perfectly
clear during the time that he was
awake yesterday. While he was still
more. or less under the influence Of
the anesthetic his Slumber was restless
and disturbed and did him little real
good. Yesterday between 8 and 4
O'Clock he had the sOlace of natural
slumber for about four hours, and the
physicians stated unofficially that his
sleep had been "quiet and repoSeful."
and had helped the sufferer a great
deal. Yesterday also for the first time
nourishment was administered. 1t was
in liquid form and was injected hypo-
dermically TO avoid the possibility of
irritating the walls of the stomach.

Recommendation That Date of
Reopening House be
Changed
FROM 26TH TO 10Th OF MONTH
Suggestion as to First Nights Thea
tire PerfOrmance-GoV. Van
SAINT Writes.

At the monthly membership meet
ing of the Rock Island Club last
evening il was voted to recommend
TO the board of directors that the
date of the reopening of the remod-
eled club house be changed from the
Goth to the Goth of the present
month, as the former date, it was
pointed out, would find n number of
the members who would otherwise
be on hand for the smoker away
spending Christmas in other cities.
There was likewise n discussion re-
garding the date of the opening of
the Illinois theatre, and the sugges-
ton was offered, although no action
was taken by the club, that this
event not occur before Christmas,
for the reason that from this time
on until at least the 25th of the
month merchants would be busy in
their stores evenings and would be
obliged to forego the pleasure of
witnessing the opening performance.
Governors Acknowledgment.
Secretary Ii. ID. Connolly read let
ter from Gov. Sam Il. Van SAINT, of
Minnesota, acknowledging his cleo
ton to honorary membership in the
club and expressing thanks for the
honor shown him. There was also
n letter from President Andreen. of
Augustana college, voicing the graf
itude of the faculty of that institu-
ton for the part the club took in en-
pertaining Bishop and Lady Won
Scheele on the occasion of their re-
cent visit to the city.
The Clubs Show.
Just what form the clubs annual
entertainment will take is yet an
open question, the idea, advanced at

opera instead of a minstrel show,
having been adversely reported upon
by a committee to which the propo-
sition was referred for investigation.

Baseball Notes

David Jones, the young collcgian
who led the hitters of the Three-I
league last season, will be in the line
up of the Chicago National league
team next spring. There has been a
lively contest to secure Jones serv-
ices between Manager Nicol of the
Rockford club, representing Mr..
Hart, and Manager McAleer, of the
st. Louis American league team.
Nicol discovered Jones ON the Dixon
college team last year and put him
in the outfield for the Rockford
team, where his good work soon at
tracted the attention of bigger
clubs. The Milwaukee American
league club landed him, and he fin
ished the season with that team.
When the list of Milwaukee players
to be transferred to st. Louis was
given out Jones name was among
the number, but he turned down Nc
Aleer's contract and accepted one
proffered by the Chicago club in
stead. Jones played his first profess
sional ball last season, getting bat
ting average of 1854 i'm seventy-seven
games in the Three-I league. He is
22 years of age.

FARES WELL
In House Committee Appointments
at Washington Yes
terday.

In the assignment of places on the
house committees yesterday at
Washington the Illinois delegation
Jared as well as could possibly have
been expected. Eight out of >the
eleven republicans have chairman
ships. Mr.. Reeves is the one new
chairman, being put at the head of
the committee on patents, which is a
first-class assignment. The other
seven chairmen, as in the last con-
gress, are: Cannon, appropriations;
Hit. foreign affairs; Foss, navy;
Hopkins, census; Warner, revision of
the laws; Graft, claims; and Smith,
private land claims.
Illinois loses one craftsmanship by
the retirement of Gen. Marsh, and
Mr.. Prince gave up nominal chair
manship of one of the unimportant
committees, but the state has now
just the same number of important
chairmanships.
There have been some necessary
changes. Mr.. Boutell has dropped
two of his old assignments on claims
and education, neither of which was
worth much, and has succeeded to
Lorimer's place on the postoffice
committee. Graft takes Lorimer's
place on agriculture, in which ILL
nois especially is interested, because
the committee will consider the cleo
margarine bill.
Mr.. Prince succeeds Gen. Marsh on
the military committee, this assign
ment having been especially arrang-
ed because Prince has been largely
instrumental in building up the man
ufacture of small arms at Rock Is
land arsenal.
Illinois loses its representation on
the public building committee owing
to the defeat of Rodenburg at East
ST Louis, and this is a loss which
may be felt severely.
The assignment of the new Illinois
members includes Feeley, elections
No. ,. Pacific railroads, and election
of president and vice president; Me-
Andrews, Indian affairs; Mahoney,
railroads and canals and manufac-
lures: Mickey, levees and improve
ments of the Mississippi river; Selby,
pensions and expenditures in the war
department.; Kern, education and dis
position of documents.
