DANGER PERIOD PASSED.
Opinion of Presidents Physicians. The Bullet May Be Carried By The President To
 The Grave.

Buffalo N. Y., Sept. 1O.-The corps of eminent surgeons and physicians in attendance upon the wounded President to-day committed them selves without reserve to the opinion that their patient was out of danger, and that only the possibility of com | plications threaten his life.
 They did not give assurance of his recovery collectively, over their sig natures in an official bulletin, but they went long way toward it individu ally and separately during the day. | Each of them with the exception of Doctor Rixey, who did not leave the Milburn residence, placed himself squarely on record, not privately to the friends of the President, but pub licly, through the agency of the press, that the danger point had passed, and that the President would survive the attempt upon his life.
 "Of course, we will all feel easier when week has passed," said Doctor McBurney, the dean of the corps. "We would like to see every door locked and double locked, but the danger from possible complications is now very remote."
 AS an evidence of the supreme faith he holds, Doctor McBurney, after the morning consultation, made trip to Niagara Falls, and this evening re- turned to New York. He could reach here again in ten hours if the unex pected should happen and there should be change for the worse.
 The little piece of lead in the mus cles of the back is giving the physi- clans no concern whatever. Unless it should prove troublesome to the Pres ident later on, he will possibly carry this grim souvenir of the anarchist with him to the end of his days
 The doctors say that once encysted it can do no harm. The X-ray ma- chine is ready for instant use, how ever, and if there is the slightest in- fammation or pain in the vicinity of the bullet an operation would be per- formed.

ROBINSON-SHAVER.

Miss Savannah Elizabeth Robinson, of Jacksonport, and Mir. Eugene A. Shaver, of Clover Bend, were united in marriage Sunday evening at s o'clock in the Methodist church of Jacksonport by Rev. MT. Taylor, pas tor of that church.
 To the sweet strains of Mendell- sohn's Wedding March, played by Miss Marie Bach, the bridal party en- tered the church which was thronged with friends of the contracting par ties, the bride leaning upon the arm of her cousin, MT. Pryne WhitWorth, of Searcy, while by the opposite aisle advanced the groom and best man, B. w. Hafner of this city. About fifty people from this city were in attend ance upon the ceremony.
 The bride was the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. w. P. Robinson, and comes of one of Jacksonport's best families. Of the brunette type, regular features and attractive face, the bride was a very fair one in white organdie, wearing the veil.
 The groom is at present employed at Clover Bend, though a resident of this county until recently, where he is very popular. He was candidate for representative in the last Demo- cratic primary and proved strong contestant.
 The INDEPENDENT offers him con- gratulations and extends heartiest wishes to both bride and groom for long lives of usefulness and happi ness.

THE PRESIDENT CHEERFUL.
Satisfactory Progress Toward Recov- cry Being Made According to the Physicians-No Reaction from
 Reopening Wound.

When Mrs. Mckinley paid her hus- band the customary morning visit on Wednesday, the President greeted her with these words: ''I have passed the best night of any since I was shot," The physicians are as well satisfied with the Presidents rapid progress toward recovery as the patient him. self.
 There was not the slightest reac- tion of any kind from what was called "the reopening of the wound" after the consultation last evening. The term ''reopening the woundo is in it. self technically correct. The incision made at the first operation was re- opened to the extent that the hair like silken threads which held the severed epidermis together were sev- cred.
 The physicians had spoken with much satisfaction of the fact that the Presidents condition is now such that he can take nourishment in the natu- ral way, through the mouth. This not only is indicating satisfactory pro- gress on the part of the wounded stomach, but it is also of advantage for the reason that some local irrita- tlon had been developed by the artifi- cial methods of supplying the patient with food. The President greatly relishes the beef juice that is admins tered to him at frequent intervals, and the amount has been increased. For time at least, probably until Friday, nothing but the beef juice will be administered. The President is not in a precarious condition and never has been since the operation. It will not be many days, before his physicians, cautious as they are, will be ready to formally pronounce him practically out of danger. His cheer fitness and courage are greatly in his favor and are factors which greatly please his physicians. He has taken to making mildly humorous remarks about things. "It is getting rather lonesome in here, Cortelyou,' he said to his secretary. "I don't get as much society as I'd like"
 Then, again, to one of his physi- clans, after he had been something like hundred hours without food, in the sense that food suggests itself to the lay mind, he said: "Do you know, doctor, I am getting hungry. It seems to me it is pretty long time between meals"
 Six weeks has been fixed as the limit of his stay in Buffalo, though his brother, Abner says he shall not leave until he is as sound man as before he came. The President has expressed his intention of returning directly to Washington.

REFUSED INSURANCE.

The steamer Liberty, purchased by the Memphis Newport Packet Com pany will never make it's scheduled trip up White river. This announce ment is the result of information re- ceived by Capt. w. A. Joyce Wednes- day afternoon from R. G. Ashford by telephone.
 The examining underwater refused to insure the Liberty and as it's pur- chase had been based upon this con- dition, the boat will become the pro- perty of it's original owners.
 The company is now upon the look out for another boat which may be leased, until purchase is made.

The prospects for the completion of the million dollar State Capitol, upon which $50, 1000 has already been ex- pended in the building of the founda- tion, are promising. At the recent meeting of the Capitol Commission, the report of Frank Miles Day, the examining Architect of Philadelphia, was submitted, estimating the cost of the building proper upon the plans drawn by Architect Mann to be $1,- 425, ,464, with an additional $325 ,O0O for contractors profits, furnishings, ap- breaches, terraces, statuary, etc., which does not form necessary el- ement of the present cost. He gave it as his opinion that the present foundation can be utilized by careful planning, and that the plans may be cut down to come within the million dollar limit fixed by the Legislature
 There are several items overestima- ted, Architect Mann having a bid on the structural iron for instance, which Day estimates at $143,0 ,000. Other items when eliminated will leave about $20O, ,0O0 to be cut out, which Architect Mann says he can do within sixty days by redrawing the plans.

BUSINESS BLOCKS BURNED.
SWifton Suffer Ten Thousand Dollar Fire Early Thursday Morning. Little Insurance But Some
 Stock is Saved.

SPECIAL DISPATCH TO THE INDEPENDENT.
 SwIFToN, ARK, September 12.-Fire broke out at three o'clock this morn ing in the Shell building and totally destroyed eight mercantile houses and one dwelling, Jones Bros. x Company being the heaviest losers, though par tially insured. The Shell building and all contents were a total loss, with no insurance.
 The origin of the fire is at present unknown. The loss will probably ag- gregate ten thousand dollars.
Newport weekly independent., 1901-09-13

The town of Swifton, which is Is miles north of this point upon the Iron Mountain, is bisected by the track of this road. Most of the busi- ness houses of the town lie east of the railroad on a street which runs para Tel with the track.
 The Shell building, owned by A. J. Shell, was near the center of this row of business houses and was the starting point of the fire. The build ings were all frame structures and where not immediately adjoining the next store, were separated by so short a distance that the flames had no trouble in leaping these narrow strips.
 The little town of course had no fire company or water supply with which to fight the flames, which burned ev- erything within reach. Passengers upon the early morning trains state that the ruins were smouldering at that time, but that large quantities of goods, the contents of the stores could be seen in piles, having been remov- ed from the doomed buildings. The fire is thought to have extended as far south as the Jones Hotel, but left the Moon property across the street stand ing.
 The only insurance carried by any Newport agency was for Jones Bros. & Company, being $3OO0 upon their stock.
 Dr. T. w. Toler had two policies with mutual company which expired August, 30th, last.
 The fires at Swifton and Newark show the insecurity of frame build ings and in fact that of town, when they are lined up one after another in close proximity.
