President Had No Fear.
Presidently Mckinley has never taken
seriously warnings received Of designs
upon his life. He has never indicated
the least apprehension and has not de-
sired the protection of a bodyguard
which has been thrown around him. In
Washington he has walked the streets
freely. and his never-failing amiability
for all classes of people has seemed all
the protection needed.

There is little distinction between day
and night in the Presidents sick room.
He has no regular hours for sleeping,
but every little while he becomes
1rowsy and generally sleeps several
hours at time. There is always a
nurse in attendance, and at least one Of
The physicians remains in an adjoining
room. When he awakens from one OF
his maps he is given a small drink of
water containing nourishing ingredi-
,nts, and the physician then in charge
axes his temperature, pulse and respi-

In few days, il the Presidents pres
snt convalescence continues, it will be
possible for few of his most intimate
friends to see him Mrs. Mckinley will
&c allowed to visit him at more frequent
intervals, and gradually he will be
irought back into touch with the worlds

An the city Is rejoicing.

Al the city IS rejoicing.
Nevertheless, a period of waiting is
still ahead. Even il the President con
tinues to improve as steadily as during
The last four days, it will be not less
than three weeks, and probably
month. before he can leave Buffalo 1t
had been determined that when he is
well enough TO be moved he will be
aiken direct to the White House He
will not visit his home in Canton until
The Christmas holidays. This is the
)an that has been accepted and is be-
ng discussed in all its details by mem
)ers OF the Cabinet and by the Presi-
lent's relatives.
"All our plans are subject to change
said a Cabinet member, but SO far as
we are now able to tell the President
will leave Buffalo early in October and
will be taken to Washington Should
here be a relapse his departure will be
delayed"
All news from the sick room during
the day was good news. The Presi-
dent is becoming stronger every hour.
He is now able to move about in his
bed with little difficulty.
He has at last been permitted to drink
had since the attempt was made upon
his lie. The quantity given him has
been small, but that he has received any

clans
Still more important, the President
at II.2o Tuesday, was given a small
quantity OF beef juice This was the
first nourishment that had been given
him in the regular way since he was
shot He had previously been fed by
injections. Announcement OF the ad-
miniStration OF food was made by the
physicians at 100 o'clock when they
came out Of the house after having been
in consultation more than two hours.
They made no attempt to conceal the
jublation they felt over the fact that
the President had normally entered the
second stage OF his convalescence.

TWO DANGERS NOW PAST
Bullet Holes Ia Stomach Healed aud Harm
From Missile is Not Feared.

Buffalo (SpeciaD The danger to the
President from two sources is pro-
nounced over.
The rents in the stomach caused by
he perforation OF the second bullet, are
now considered healed by the physi-
clans Dr. McBurney pointed to the
fact that the beef Juice led to the Presi-
dent was readily digested as proof of
his. Sufficient time has elapsed to war
rant the doctors in stating that the
danger OF Inflammation where the bull
let lodged has disappeared. 1t Is be-
lieyed that the ball has now become en-
cysted in the muscles OF the back, and
unless its location should prove trouble
some later there will never be any ne
cessity for removing it. Dr. Mann,
speaking in regard to this, said he knew

Early Wednesday morning of last week the stars and stripes were raised to the top of the flag pole, which was a signal to every inhabitant that some distinguished folk were expected to visit the city during the day. It was the Imperial Editorial Party, which arrived about 12 M, and, after the us- ual shaking, brushing and dusting that follows such trips, did ample justice to the lunch that had been prepared for them at Hotel Imperial.
 The afternoon was passed by the party in resting, viewing the city, with its beautiful (mirage) lakes of crystal water, seemingly in a stones throw from any direction.
 Thursday was spent in driving over the country, the editors, with General Manager Ferguson as leader, leaving here between seven and eight o'clock A. M., followed later by Miss E. Der tella and Mrs. Paul E. Ferguson, who took the lunch, connecting with the party at the new camp being es- tablished at the boundry line. Lunch ing in Mexico, they then turned toward Imperial, returning via Indian We'll, on the San Diego and Yuma road, thence to Blue Lake and to the city, reaching here about 6 P. M.
