Body Lying In State

Buffalo, Sept. 14.-President McKin-
ley died at 2:15 this morning. He had
been unconscious since 1850 p. m. His
last conscious hour on earth was spent
with the wife to whom he devoted a
lifetime of care.
He died unattended by minister Of
the gospel, but his last words were an
humble submission to the will of the
God in whom he believed. lie was
reconciled to the cruel fate to which
an assassin's bullet had condemned Linn,
and faced death in the same spirit Of
calmness and poise which has marked
his long and honorable career.
His last conscious words, reduced to
writing by DR.. Mann, who stood at
his bedside when they were uttered
were: "Good-bye; all goodbye. 1t is
Gods way. His will be done"
His relatives and the members Of his
official family were at the Milburn
house, except Secretary Wilson, who
did not avail himself of the opportunity,
anu SOlle VI Ills perSO1dl anu pOIlIlCdl
friends took leave of him. This pain
full ceremony was simple. His friends
came to the door of the sick room, took
a longing glance at the dying statesman
and turned away.
He was practically unconscious dur
ing this time. But the powerful heart
stimulants, together with oxygen, were
employed to restore him to conscious
ness for his final parting with his wife.
He asked $1r her, she sat at his side
and held his hand. He consoled her
and babe her goodbye. She went
through the scene with the same bray
cry and fortitude with which she has
borne the grief of the tragedy which
ended his life.
The members of the family, with the
exception of the bereaved wife, were
at the death bed. Mrs. Mckinley was
in an adjoining room. DR.. Kixey was
the only physician present.

The report of the autopsy upon the re-
mains of President Mckinley says that
the bullet which struck over the breast
bone did not pass through the skin, q
did little harm. The other bullet
passed through both walls of the st1l-
ach, near it's lower border. Both holes
were found to be perfectly closed by
the stitches, but the tissues around each
hole had become engagements.
After passing through the stomach,
the bullet passed into the back walls
of the abdomen, hitting and tearing
the upper end of the kidney. This por-
ton of the bullet track was also gan
greneous, the gangrene involving the
pancreas. The bullet was not found.
There were no signs of peEitonitis or
disease of other organs. The heart
walls were very thin. There was no
evidence of any attempt at repair on
the part of nature, and death desulted
from the gangrene, which affected the
stomach around the bullet wounds, as
we'll as the tissues around the further
course of the bullet.
Death was unavoidable by any sur.
gical or medical treatment, and was the
direct result of the bullet wound.

Did you ever think of it? 1t is a
fact that more of the surprises of life
those that bring JOY and sorrow
alike-comes through the hands of
the telegraph operators to their fell
low men than from any other single
source. The operators at first have
a feeling Of sympathy when their
messages bring tidings of death or
disaster to individuals, but it is a
matter of business with them and in
the course of time they become
hardened to it,; and it is fortunate
that it is so, or the work would be

Gov. Stickney has issued the fol
lowing proclamation

lowing proclamation: =
Our land is overcast with sorrow. Viii
liam Mckinley, the greatest chief magistrate
since Lincoln, is dead.
In life so stalwart for right and vet so
gentle of heart he won the affections of all
who love liberty and deserve the blessings OF
free government.
He who by both word and deed always
upheld law and order, slain by a nameless
traitor, has fallen victim to the mad delusion
of anarchy and disorder.
But God is over all, and this calamity has
demonstrated that the people of this repub-
lie are one for good government and liberty
under law.
All that is mortal of him. who died so full
of honors won in long service for the welfare
of his countrymen, will be consigned to the
tomb at Canton, Ohio, on Thursday next,
September o, A. d. 1901.
1t is fitting that public expressions be Civ
en- to our grief:
do therefore recommend that on that day
the people assemble in their respective places
of divine worship and observe time of HUI
initiation and prayer, not forgetting the
words last on the lips of our dying chief
magistrate Gods will, not ours be
done"
Let us bow with submission to the will of
Almighty God and on that day render loving
tribute to the memory and charaeter of our
martyred chieftain who stood for all that is
best in representative government And
while we cannot vet understand, let us trust
that out of our affiction we may come forth
a stronger people, with more love for God
and our country and freed from all the here
sizes Of anarchy. Let us always keep in mind
that, Blessed Is that nation whose God is
the Lord"

Postmaster-General Smith, while
on his vacation this summer, a
greater part of which was spent in
the New England states, gave some
attention to rural free delivery and
found it very popular here. By the
close of this year one-third of the
available territory of the United
States will have free delivery routes
established, and the expense of the
service will be about $4,50O,OOO,
The post-office department next win
ter will ask Congress for an appro-
priation of Sc, 100000 for next year,
81, 100000 to be for extension. Mr..
Smith believes that all the available
territory can be given rural free de
livery for about $14, 100000 year,
and that Congress will make the
appropriation for the extension Of
the service. 1t costs not less than
70 cents per capita for free delivery
in the cities where that service is
given, and not more than 90 cents
per capita for the rural free delivery
service for the farmers.

By that crime which has plunged
the nation into deepest grief there is
brought home to the minds of the
American people the sharpest of
lessons-the full enormity of the creed
of anarchy. Hitherto it has toler-
ated with a certain measure of con-
tempt, in spite of the fact that it's
emissaries have more than once sailed
from our shores to Stay the princes
and potentates of other lands. But
contempt and federation are possible
no longer. These shores should offer
no asylum to such outlaws of the
human race as the desperate crea-
lures, who, without any fear of God
or any regard for man, seek to sweep
away without pity or compassion,
every vestige of our social order,
every office of the established law
The whole artillery of justice must
now be directed upon these lawless
men, and this mephitic hydra that we
have so long allowed to burrow and
breed in Our midst must be driven
from hence.

President Mckinley.

condition of the President caused a
deep gloom to overcome the cheerful
reports of the previous days, and
when on Saturday morning word
came that the life had gone out, the
shadows deepened and hearts every
where throughout our beloved land
were bowed in sorrow. The assas-
sins bullet had done its work and
added to the list of martyr Presidents
was the name of William Mckinley
man whom the entire nation loved
and respected. A great light has
gone out and in its extinguishment
the nation loses one of the best Pres
idents it ever had. William McKin-
ley was the idol of the entire people.
He was a statesman who has left an
indelible impression on the legislation
of this country, as well as on the
entire world.
If there ever was a man in all the
world who might have been thought
securely entrenched from the untimely
end that has come to him, it was the
blameless President-the chosen head
of seventy million freemen, man
admired by good men everywhere, Of
all parties, for his rare qualities of
head and heart; in his private lifeim-
maculate; in his public life incorrupti-
BILE; a very Bayard among our Presi-
d dents, sans puer ct sans reproche;
a man, all else besides, of deepest
religious faith and consistent reli-
gious example. Such a man, indeed,
was he, whose life was so sadly and
suddenly brought to close. The
nation is in tears over this calamity,
and it will ever hold in reverence the
name of William Mckinley, whose
name for ages to come will have a
place alongside of those Of Washing
ton, Lincoln and Grant.
In the midst of all this sorrow, it
is well to remember that while the
assassin may strike at and take the
life of the great head of the nation,
he is, however, powerless to touch
the life of the people. In the words
of Garfield, "God rules and the gov
eminent at Washington still lives"
The government of the republic is so
well established that even acalamity
so great as this cannot shake it's
foundations nor imperil its perpetu-
ity. The new President, Theodore
Roosevelt, is known as a man of up
rightness, of wisdom, of loyalty and
of devotion, and the entire nation
halls him with reverence and allie
glance, bidding him Godspeed as he
assumes the helm of the ship of state
"a duty which has so suddenly and
in so awful manner been thrust
upon him.
