The Soldiers Home.

I hear great hue and cry about q

be far better to give every old soldier

him stay at home where his friends
could see after him. Many of them
have poor little homes, but they 1--we

cut their own fire wood; so little
help at their own little home would
do good. There is no home to an old
soldier like his own, where be can be

I think that is the place to help bin.

Runaway Accident.
To the Editor Of the Dispatch:

Please allow me in your valuable
paper to give an account of the accl
dent which occurred Monday, Sep
tember I'd, between Messrs. Meetze
& Sons lot and the bridge crossing
the head of factory pond.
On leaving home Monday morning
I exchanged horses with a neighbor
and thought that I was getting a
trusty animal. I reached Lexington
safely, but as I was hitching up in
the afternoon to return home, a
buggy passed the entrance to the lot
going toward the depot. drove into
the street. My horse wanted to fol-
low the one that had passed the gate
which, by this time, was three or four
hundred yards in front of me. l
held her in check until the hill was
reached, when she became unmsnsg-
able and commenced to kick and run
furiously. I held on until the bits,
which were pair of snappers, came
in two. I was then helpless and
nearing the bridge, so I got out OF my
cart the best I could, which was not
such graceful landing: I got up in
time to see my turnout lock theright
wheel of the vehicle which was in
front of me. As there is curve in
the street near the foot of the hill, l
could see no more until the bridge
was reached. There I found my
cart and lady's hat, but there was no
horse or buggy in sight. On reach
ing the top of the hill on the south
end of the bridge I found the buggy
to be. that of Major Meetze and the
occupant to be Mrs. Meetze. 1t is
useless for me to say that I was sur
prised and delighted to learn that
Mrs. Meetze was unipjured and she
told me herself that she was only
frightened. Both Mrs. Meezte and
her horse acted with remarkable
presence of mind and courage. I
am truly sorry that Mrs. Meetze was
subjected to such fright and exposed
to such imminent danger, but had it
been my own dear mother it would
have been the same.

The President Dead
The Assassin's Bullet Does Its Deadly
Work and the Civilized World Mourns.

Milburn House, Buffalo, Sept. IA -
President Mckinley died at 2:15 this
morning. He had been unconscious
since 7:3O p. m. His last conscious
hour on earth was spent with the
wife to whom he devoted lifetime of
care. He died unattended by a min
lister of the gospel, but his last words
we're an humble submission to the
will of the God iu whom he believed.
He was reconciled to the cruel fate
to which an assassin's bullet had
condemned him, and faced death in
the same spirit OF calmness and poise
which has marked his long and hor-
cradle career. His last conscious
words, reduced to writing by Dr..
Maup, who stood at his be dside when
they were az follows:
"Good-bye. all; good bye. It's
Gods way. His will be done"
His relatives, and members of the
official family, were at the Milburn
house, except Secretary Wilson. who
did not avail himself Of the oppor-
tunity, and some Of his personal and
political friends who took leave Of
him. This painful ceremony was
simple. His friends came to the
door of the sick room, took longing
glance at him, md turned tearfully
away. He was practically upcon-
scious during this time. But the
powerful heart stimulants, including
oxygen, were employed to restore
him to consciousness for his final
parting with his wife. He asked for
her, and she sat at his side and held
his hands. He consoled her and
bade her goodbye. She went
through the heart-trying scene with
the same bravery and fortitude with
which she mas borne the grief of the
tragedy which has ended his life.
The immediate cause of the Presi-
dents desth is undetermined. His
physicians disagree, and it will pos
sibly require an autopsy to fix the
exact cause. The Presidents re-
mains will be taken to Washington,
and there will be State funeral,
Vice President Roosevelt, who now
succeeds to the Presidency, may take
the oath of Office wherever he hap
pens to hear the news. The cabinet
will, of course, resign in body, an
President Roosevelt will have an op-
portunity of forming new cabinet,
If he 30 desires.
The rage of the people OF Buffalo
against the Presidents assassin, when
they learned tonight that he was
dying, was boundless Thousands
surrounded the jail, and the entire
olice force of the city and two regi-
ments of militia were utilized 10 IN
sure his protection.
OF all the sad household, only the
vi e did net know the truth. She
surmised that Mr.. McKialey was
worse, for she was told this mornll 6
it would be better for her not to ent'
the sick chamber. She assented, but
it was with look of mute appeal IN
her eyes.
