CONDITION Is GRAVE.
Crisis Is Expected Within Twenty
Four Hours-PhysiciansH Hopeful.


BUFFALO. Sept 7-President McKin-
ley's condition is extremely grave The
crisis will probably come within twenty
four hours. While his physicians hold out
hope and the Developments of the day
have been somewhat encouraging in that
none of the symptoms of peritonitis or
blood poisoning. which they so much dread,
have appeared. medical experience with
similar wounds causes much anxiety, and
the physicians shake their heads gloomily
when they speak of the future Although
their distinguished patients condition has
been favorable throughout the day. they
do not desire to buoy the country UP with
false hopes. Inflammation is what they
fear, and at the first sign in that direction
the country must steel itself for the blow.
For the time being the bullet of the assas-
sin, which is still in the body, is a sec
ondary consideration. While it has not
been absolutely located. they all agree that
after passing through the abdominal cav
ity and perforating both walls of the stom-
ach perhaps it lodged in the feshy mus
cles of the back. and if necessity required
it could be easily located with the X Roent-
gen rays and extracted. They agree that
it is now of more Importance that the Pres
ident should recover from the shock of the
operation than that the bullet should be
removed. Peritontis is what they dread
most and after that septic poisoning and
suppuration of the wound.
The crucial point will come within forty
eight hours. possibly sooner. Indeed one
OF the attending physicians said to-day
that if no signs of Inflammation appeared
before tomorrow night he would consider
the chances OF ultimate recovery exceed
ingly good. Several of his colleagues. how

When asked What is the highest and noblest resolutions for the coming year?' Rev. T. Dewitt Talmage said:
 ''To make happy all the people we can reach. By words, by smile, by consistent example, by monetary relief, by religeous influence. In the coming year we will all have at least 365 Opportunities of making people happy. Perhaps we will have twice that number of opportunities. There are tthousands of men and women dying for lack of one word of sympathy. Encourage newspaper men. If you knew how many annoyances they have, if you understood that their most elaborate article is some- times thrown out because there is such great pressure on the columns, and that an accurate report of a speech Is expected although the utterance be so indistinct the discourse is one long stenographic guess, and that the midnight which finds you asleep demands that they be awake, sick ened at the oft approach of men who want complimentary newspaper mention; one day sent to report burial and the next day to report pugilistic encounter; shift cd from place to place by sudden revolu- tion which is apt to take place any day in our great journalistic establishments, nrecarious life becoming more and more precarious-if you understood + you would he more sympathetic.

have not an axe to be sharpened on their grindstone. Also cheer up merchants, and if they have a superior style of goods tell them so, and encourage those starting to be bargain makers by rehearsing how you dined behind the counter on crackers and cheese between the going and coming of customers. Cheer mechanics, and if they have done a job well tell them so. You feel you have a right to find fault with a mechanic when he does ill., Do you ever praise a mechanic when he does well? Cheer the doctors There is great deal of cheap wit about them, but notice that those people who indulge in that wit are the first to send for a doctor when any, thing is the matter Some say that doctors are useless. One man has written book entitled, Every Man His Own Doctor That author ought to write one more book and entitle it. Every Man His Own Un- dertaker.'
 Resolve that this coming year you will every day encourage somebody who is in lawful business, and If you have nothing to say that is encouraging, O man! put your teeth tightly together and cover them with the curtain of your lip, compress your lips and then put your hand over your mouth and keep still.

I am certain that effects from a similar cause can be extended un- til they are perceptibly on some of the nearer planets. That we can secure dis turbance on a planet by the agitation of the electrical conditions surrounding the earth is not to be doubted.
 However, when I suggest vibratory method of opening up signal service with some of the planets, I know that l am going into field that has not been tried or suggested by the other men who have made study of inter-planetary communi cation.

 ''It has long been strange to me that so many of us cannot enjoy with our own eyes the beautiful things around us.

In other words, it takes asbeauty within to appreciate a beauty without
