Flower Mission.

DO the ladies who met Mrs. Hinman
last winter remember how delightfully."-
she entertained us with description
OF her work as Superintendent of Flow
er Missions. If so am sure they will
gladly respond to this invitation to
drop dime into the COLLECTION box"
which is placed on one of the tables in
the reading room at McKim Hall.
Mrs. Hinman gives her entire time
during the month OF June each year to
this work and visits every public insti-
tuition in the state. She gathers from
nearby friends such assistants as she
needs in carrying out short program
OF song and story suitable to the place
and occasion and personally interests
herself with many of these ''shut in''
people. Every inmate is given a bo-
| quet of flowers to which is attached a
card bearing a helpful scripture quo
tation. Some may scarcely appreciate
the gift, but very many eagerly antici-
pate the day set apart for her visit and
l
enjoy far more than these few words
can tell the brightness and cheer she
| brings them from the outside world.
Our Union has for many years fur
nished from seventy-fve to one hun
dred boquets for the Children's Home
in Council Bluffs and added, our mite
toward defraying the necessary eSpens-
es of this department of non-partisan
w. c. t. U. work. This year we are
expansionists and hope to aid in the
work for Glenwood with its nine hun
dred feeble minded folk. They all love
flowers and music, and the song, story
and bright blossoms will make a happy
day in their monotonous lives. Please
remember that flowers for one hundred
small'boquets are needed on the morn
ing of June 17th for the Children's
Home and as many as we can possibly
make on the morning of the 10th fol
| Glenwood. Bring them as early as yor
can to McKim Hall and willing hands
will arrange and forward them.

IN VAuEY 0F TIE SHADOW
Mrs. McKinley's Life Hangs
by a Thread.
RALLIES FROM HER sTuPoR.
Invalid Improves So That Hope is
Revived-President is Constantly at
Her Bedside-city's Gaiety Turns to
Gloom-Festvities Given Up.

San Francisco, May 17.-Mrs. Nc
Kinley is in the shadow of the valley
of death and may pass away at any
moment. Yesterday morning, shortly
before dawn, she sank rapidly and it
was feared she would die before restor-
atives could be administered. But
she responded to the powerful heart
stimulants which were given to her
during the day and improved to such an
extent that hope of her recovery, slight
though it was, revived. The new
treatment for low vitality, salt inJec-
tions into the veins, was administered
to Mrs. Mckinley and she responded
to the treatment. But he4 life hangs
by a thread. She has taken no solid
food since she reached here on Sunday
and the physicians do not believe she
could survive another sinking spell
such as she experienced yesterday.
She suffers little and bears up bravely.
During her periods of consciousness
her mind has been clear. The pres
ident is constantly at her bedside, and
although worn by his long vigil. is
standing the awful strain with remark
able fortitude. Every banquet and
public function planned in his honor
here has been abandoned and the city
with heavy heart is watching Mrs.
Kinleys battle for life. If the end
should come the president and his cab
met will be ready to start back with
the remains within "a hours. The
train which brought them here will be
used on the return trip and all ar
rangements have been made to go back
by the shortest route, the Central and
Union Pacific to Chicago and then over
the Pennsylvania to Washington. If
Mrs. Mckinley improves it is not be-
lieved chat she will be able to travel
before week from the coming Mon
day. All the members of the cabinet
with the possible exception of Secre-
terry Long, will remain here to the end.
Ne latter's daughter is very i'll at Col
ado Springs and he is very appre-
hensive that he may be called there
at any time.
The latest bulletins from the bedside
of Mrs Mckinley give more encourag-
ing indications. She rallied bit and
called for nourishment. To the anx-
ious watchers about her this was con-
strued as a favorable sign.

WEST AND RYAN.

Tommy West. the New York middle weight. has gone to Louisville to train for q bout with Tommy Ryan. he mid dleWcight champion. The battle is set for March 1. and will attract much at tcntion. West iS doubtless the best whit" middlcweight ill the east and perhaps the only one who can make IDS pounds. There is small doslbt that Walcott could beat either one. but Ryan draws the color line. Walcott recently demonstrated that he is Vests master. and there would be in tense interest in q bout between Ryan and Walcott. 1,S pounds ringside. or 154 pounds. as Ryan has Frequently in- sisted upon. Ryan will be a ? to 1 favorite over West. based on the easy manner in which the champion dis posed of the New Yorker at Coney Island in 1898. Ryan overwhelmed West from the start. and had him practically out in the fourteenth round. when the contest. was stopped by the referee. Ryan hit West when and where he pleased. and the latter was unable to land an effective blow. West is very strong and rugged. but he is outclaSsed in science and ring gencr- alShp by the New Yorker.
