Graham said that on reading a full de-
scription of the Presidents wound and the
method employed by DR.. Park, the Presi-
dents surgeon, he thought that the Presi-
dents wound was much less serious than
S~iniley's.
The operation on the President said
DR.. Graham, must have been entirely
dry. for DR.. Park has sewed I'D both the
front and the back openings into the Pres
ideut'S stomach and has taken no precau-
ton as 10 drainage. If any matter had
escaped from the stomach into the intes-
tines the danger of peritOnitis would have
been great. That there was no such escape
Is certain, for DR.. Park would take no
chances. I regard him as the greatest sur
geon in the country, with the exception Of
DR.. Sim, of Chicago. who is an older man
and who has had more experience with
Sunshot wounds.
The Presidents intestines were not per-
forated and the two stomach wounds are
clean and have been closed. The bullet
probably is lodged in the deep muscles OF
the back. From this information / think
that the Presidents nance of recovery is
line. A perforation of the stomach is not
nearly so serious as a perforation OF the
intestines.
Now, in Smiley's case the bullet entered
an inch below the nipple, four inches above
the Presidents wound, and ranged DOWN
ward, cutting the liver, passing through the
stomach and perforating a kidney He was
in such excellent condition for twelve hours
that it was not thought necessary to
operate. Suddenly his condition changed
and he sank rapidly. An operation would
not have saved him.
DIR. Park evidently performed a line
operation under favorable circumstances

at this point, each man and woman strain
ing neck and arms IN the effort 10 get a
look at the Nations chief executive. But
as soon as the carriage door was closed on
the presidential party and the captain or
Company u had shouted attention pre-
paratory TO bringing his company into posi-

long shout went up and only subsidized when

AT HARRISON FUNERAL.
With as little o~stentation as a private
citizen would display in travelling to a
distant city President Mckinley came TO
Indianapolis the morning Of Sunday, March
Il, 1901, attended only by his private secre-
tary, George =. Cortelyou. and an officer
Of the secret service. He was met at the
station by Governor Durbin, who drove
him in a carriage TO his residence at tho
corner OF Vermont and Meridian streets.
where the President was entertained in a
quiet, simple manner until evening, when
he returned 10 his home in Canton. O. IL
was unavoidable that crowds should be at
the Union Station when the President came
from his train and that he should be at
tended by throngs on his way 70 Governor
Durbin's residence and indeed on every
occasion when he showed himself in public
in the city, but his bearing at all times was
dignihed and such as 10 prevent any DEM
Onstration. His first act after resting from
his railroad journey was 10 go 10 the Har-
rison home and pay his respects 10 the
sorrowing widow and view the remains OF
his dead friend and predecessor in Office.
Later he returned TO the home of grief 10
witness the simple ceremonies preliminary
to the public funeral service in the First
Presbyterian Church. As a mourning fell
lOw-citiZen Of the deceased rather than as
the chief magistrate OF a great nation.
President Mckinley became one OF the
funeral party hat slowly wended fits way
to the church. and during the solemn. i'm
pressive service sat with head bowed in
grief in a pew close TO the one occupied by
General Harrison I'm his lifetime. Little
was published about the Presidents Visit
I'm the local newspapers. for he did nothing
to attract attention. The lack OF osten-
tation that characterized his entry into the
city and his quiet, dignifed bearing
throughout his brief %soiOurn here did much
to endear him 10 the hearts Of the citizens
Of I~ndiana's capital. They will never for
get how he mingled with theirs the tributa
of honest sorrow.

ABOUT INDIANA DAY.
If President Mckinley Dies 1t VIII lie


There is a possibility of Indiana day at
the Pan-American Exposition being aban-
dOned as n result Of the attempted assassi-
nation of President Mckinley on the ex-
position grounds yesterday. The date for
Indiana day is Sept. II, one week from to-
day, and the programme is being prepared
by the Governor and his secretary, but
there may be no occasion to carry out the
programme. Governor Durbin was asked
last night at the English Hotel what action
would be taken by him regarding Indiana
day should President Mckinley die.
In that event Indiana day will be aban-
dOned," said Governor Durbin.
In case the Presidents condition j~ustifies
a hope for his recovery it is thought that
Indiana day will not be abandoned.

THE SUCCESSION TO ROOSEVELT.

The presidential succession is al
ways such q SUBJECT of vital import
auce that people may be excused for
keeping il in mind. After Roosevelt,
who? The New York Herald draws
attention to the condition of the
present.
The secretary OF state has now as
sumed and until March 4, 1905, will
hold an Importance rarely attached
to q member of the cabinet. He is
the designated successor of the presi-
dent in case of the death, removal,
resignation or inability of that official
before the expiration of his term.
This is by virtue of the statute en-
acted by congress after the untimely
death of President Garfield. The
effect of that unexpected event was to
leave but one life between the nation
with a head and the nation without q
head. When Vice President Arthur
became president there was until con-
gress met, more than two months
later, no constitutional successor to
take his place in case of necessity.
By the then existing law the success
sion was vested after the vice presi-
dent first, in The president of the SEN
ate pro tenn, and second, in the
speaker of the house. But it so hap
pened that in the national emergency
neither of these officers was in exist
ence, and until the omission was rem
edied by the meeting of congress and
the election of both officers there was
ne one to succeed to the presidency
in case of vacancy.
This warning, emphasized by other
objections to the law as it then stood.
moved congress to the enactment of
the statute now in force vestiDg the
succession in the mem bers of the cab
met. beginning with the secretary of
state, in the event of the vice presi-
dent becoming president-an event
which has now occurred for the first
time siRce the act was passed.

ROERs STILL ACTIVE.

The Beers have won another VIC
tory, the fifth within two weeks. A
command rushed the camp of q party
of Lovatt's scouts, the British equiv
alent Of Roosevelt's rough riders, and
routed them with heavy loss. Among
the British killed are a lieutenant
colonel and a captain. Gen. Lord
Kitchener should be satisfied by this
time that wars are not to be ended
by proclamations. In this pronun-
ciamento, it will be recalled, he set
Sept. Is as the day for the closing of
hostilities, and announced that all
Beers thereafter caught in arms
would be treated as g1errillas or out
laws and transported for life. 1t was
expected that the proclamation would
so brighten the brave Dutch that in
sheer terror and despair they would
hasten to surrender. Not. only did
the heroic republican soldiers refuse
to do so; since the 18th
inst, when by the terms of the
proclamation they became outlaws
they have won three distinct victo-
ries. On the 18th inst, at Scheeper's
Mex, in the Transvaal, body of Beers
ambushed three companies Of mounted
British infantry, with three guns, COM
manded by Maj. Cough. killed two
officers and II men, wounded five
officers, and % men, and captured five
officers and $50 privates. On the
same day, in order to break through
a Gordon, Commandant SHUTS rushed
a squadron of the Seventeenth Lancers
at Glands River Poort, killing three
officers and 20 men, On the 18th
inst. command of Beers captured

company of United infantry and two
guns at Viskfontein- Moreover, the
Dutch are rising in various parts OF
Cape Colony in which they have here
tofore been quiet, and a number OF
British troops have been sent to pre-
vent the reinvasion of Natal by 1, 500
Beers under Gen. Louis Botha. The
war has been more active since the
18th inst. than before. Instead OF
intimidating the Beers the proclama-
ton has inspired them to greater
effort.
The war ia South Africa so far as
the Beers are concerned, is no more
irregular now than at any time since
1t began. There are fewer republican
troops, it is true, but the troops are
commanded by officers. the officers
are led by generals, and all are duly
commissioned. The Beers observe
the strictest rules of civilized warfare.
and il the Eight on their part is ir-
regular, no war between a weak aud
powerful nation ever was regular.
If for the reason that they are COM
paratively fe " in mum Der the Dutch
soldiers are guerrillas, the troops I'M
der Washington at Valley Forge were
guerrillas. 1t remains to be seen
whether Gen. Kitchener will now
treat captured Beers according to his
proclamation. If so he will violate
the canons of war and of humanity
and invite retaliation.

The Marriage Cure.

One remedy against indigestion is
matrimony. At least The Lancet tells
us that it is the celibate young barris-
ter, the lonely curate in lodgings. the
struggling bachelor journalist or bust
ness man or clerk who suffers most
from premature dyspepsia because he
eats alone. He generally reads during
his meals, which is bad. or he reads
directly he has bolted his food. which
is likewise bad. Obviously. therefore,
matrimony is a bar to Indigestion
