Seine good Samaritan of this city,
who refuses to allow his name to be
mentioned, is paying in monthly in

M. Herbert, whose body has been
lying In local morgue fore more
than two years.
AS told some time ago in The Press.

GUARDING THE PRESIDENT.
Secret Service Men Had Their Hands
Full on His Recent Tour of
the States.

The four secret service men who
formed President Roosevelts personal
guard on his recent trip through the
west had strenuous time Of ii on the
road. says q Washington letter in the
New Orleans Times Democrat They
received no end of knocks. bruises and
scratches In performing their duty Of
protecting the president against the
crushing mobs. in keeping enthusiastic
but reckless admirers al a proper dis
lance and knocking out obstreperous in
dividuals who refused to heed warnings
TO keep back
The members Of the presidents guard
had no less than 80 hand-to-hand en-
counters with unruly MODS. and il be-
came necessary for them to deliver
knockout blows to about Is or 90 diff
ferent persons. They are old hands
at the business. and when the presi-
dents safety demanded II they thought
no more of putting an aggressive and
suspicious-looking character to sleep
than Jeffries does of knocking out an
ambitious boxer.
The men are the pick of the secret
service, and each Is splendid athlete
and superb boxer. They always ac-
company the president on trips out OF
Washington, and know their business
thoroughly
At many Of the cities visited by the
president on the recent trip the local
arrangements for keeping the crowd in
check and providing for the comfort
of the visitors was very poor. In GER
tain instances there were practically ne
regulations for maintaining order what
ever When this condition was met
the secret-service men had their work
cut out for them. II was their custom
TO form q Gordon about the president
as best they could with their limited
numbers, locking arms with each other
when necessary.
The secret-service men had their faces
scratched and bruised repeatedly by the
flying arms Of persons reaching out 10
shake the presidents hands Many Of
those anxious 10 catch glimpse OF the
president did not understand by what
authority the four men in citizens
clothing acted and invariably wanted
10 argue the matter. The secret-service
men had no time for conversation.
When husky stranger resisted being
kept back he is promptly "slugged" II
was vital for the guards TO drop their
man at single blow, so that every time
fist was drawn back Il was aimed with
a purpose of putting the victim out OF
business. The instant the unruly one
was hit the guard moved on. so that
It frequently happened that people two
feet distant never knew what had hap
pened.
