HENRY C. PAYNE ILL.
Postmaster General Has Marked
Symptoms of Heart Trouble.
Several Times He Had Sinking Spells
and it Was Thought the End Was
Near-He Rallied and His Con-
dition is Encouraging.

Washington, Sept 30.--Postmaster
General Henry C. Payne is seriously
i'll at his apartments at the Hotel Ar
lington here. Marked symptoms Of
heart trouble have developed and his
condition became so serious during
the day as. to cause grave concern.
Mr.. Payne returned recently from
trip in the west and appeared to be
feeling in much improved condition,
though his health has been poor for
long time.
Washington, Oct. 1.-The condition
of Postmaster General Payne, whose
serious illness was announced Thurs
day night, continued extremely grave
throughout Friday. There were times
during the day, notably in the early
morning and late in the afternoon,
when the attending physicians believ-
ed the end was near at hand, but the
patient responded to the heroic rene
dies applied and seemed to regain
some of the lost ground. Friday night
at about o'clock Mr.. Payne fell into
a restful sleep, which continued fOS
some time. The doctors regarded this
as encouraging for peaceful night.
The greatest cause of alarm was the
feebleness of the heart action and it
was found necessary to administer sa
line solution and nitro-glycerine to
stimulate that organ. Only moderate
ly sized doses were given, however,

CAMPAIGN BUTTONS.
A Blunder Caused Democratic Com

Chicago, Oct. ga blunder has
caused the democratic national COM

paign buttons. A large number of the
buttons were delivered at headquar-
ters recently, when the managers
were startled to find the lineaments
of Parker and Davis, both done in a
hectic pink, staring from background
of gold.
Thousands of buttons had been ex-
pressed to western states by the time
the discovery was made, and a fear
that the Bryanites might take UNI
bragg led the leaders to place an or
der for a smaller button with Parker
and Davis enscOnced in an environ
ment of silver. These were sent to
Nebraska and other western states,
while the gold faced buttons were re-
called and distributed elsewhere.

FLOOD IN NEW MEXICO.
Half Town Destroyed and Dozen
People Drowned.

San Antonio, Tex, Oct 3-FrOm ali
reports received from yhe overfiowed
country in the Brownsville section, it
appears that there is a strong proba-
bility that the bed of the Rio Grande
will be shown when the waters have
receded to be occupying the bed of
the Arroyo Colorado, which years ago
was its original bed. Should this be
true the people of this region of Tex
as who would be bereft of the river
would suffer greatly The city of
Brownsville, one of the rapidly grow
ing towns of the state, would be cut
Off from the river, the miles of irri-
cation bitches and canals dug would
be rendered worthless and property
values dependent upon the Rio
Grande's flow will be materially cut
down. This would apply to consid-
cradle area, being the land below the
Arroyo into which the river is run
ming IL miles above Brownsville.
The national title to this property
is not in question. About seven years
ago joint commission appointed by
the respective governments of the
United States and Mexico owing to the
troublesome habit of the river chang
ing its course hit upon a compromise
boundary and two years ago marked
it with monuments. The boundary
rests where they stand, however the
river may shift about.

and in each case the response was
gratifying.
Washington, Oct. 3.-After a day
filled with strong hopes, alternating
with the gravest fears of almost i'm
mediate dissolution, Postmaster Gen.
eral Payne's condition late Sunday
night was declared by his physicians
to be decidedly more encouraging, but
they are unwilling to hazard an opin-
ion as to the future. In the early
hours his heart action became decid-
edly weaker with resultant feebleness
of pulse and Inconsistencies At
times he suffered intense pain and
once or twice he cried out in his
agony. These paroxysms were follow
ed by periods of exhaustion with brief
intervals of comparative freedom from
pain, but the heart action continued
to give the physicians the greatest
concern. ff9f Lf8t'e
Several times during the day the
pulse became SO feeble that it seemed
it must cease altogether and at one
time the physicians said the postmas-
ter general was as near death as few
ever get and survive the day At 2
o'clock Sunday afternoon the doctors
fully believed that the end was at
hand, and the family, who were at din
ner. were summoned
Early Monday morning DIR. Magru-
der left the sick room for his home,
leaving Dr. Grayson in charge. DIR.
Magruder's report was that Mr..
Payne's improvement continued and if
this rate of Improvement continues
the next bulletin would doubtless be
gratifying. He said that the postmas-
ter general was retaining his nourish-
ment and. had had no sinking spells
during the evening when he awoke
from his sleep, which was necessarily
fltful. he was able to recognize those
about him. DR.. Magruder added that Mr..
