HENDERSON WORSE
Former Speaker Of the House Now
Unable to Leave His Room-Parssis
Has Its Hold Upon Him More Firm
Iy-UnabIe to Read the Papers.

Special TO Times Republican.
Dubuque, Sept 22.-Col. David
Bremner Henderson has not left his
room in the Hotel Julien for two
weeks, although he is physically well,
having regained the use Of his right
side, which was paralyzed.
1t is becoming more evident as the
days pass, that the once distinguished
statesman will never again regain his
vigor. He is just now enjoying better
health. according to medical authori-
ties, than can be expected in the future.
The dread disease has secured hold
on Mr.. Henderson and his remarkable
vitality alone keeps him up.
The paresis is general. The patient
is not violent. He lounges about his
room; sits up to eat, and talks to
friends, but only for a few moments at
time. The end may come shortly or
might hold off for two years. The mall
adv is uncertain in the time of Its ul-
innate effect.
One pitiful feature of the ex-speak-
er's condition is the fact that he can
not read the daily papers. He has mol
even scanned an article for months.
For a man who held the leadership OF
the republican party in the house OF
Representatives and who was accus-
toned to keep In touch with current
events the situation is lamentable.
His books lie idle. The papers tell OF
his Condition and eulogize his past, but
he knows nothing of it.
Friends talk with him. but as the
conversation proceeds, his continuity
Of thought 'aayes him and he forgets
what he had to say. His mind becomes
a blank.
f Mr.. Henderson, If another hem
orrhage can be averted may survive
the coming two years A second hem
orrhage, it is asserted, will bring about
the end almost without warning.

hot seem to be disturbed.
During his life he has been at differ
enr times hynotist, a doctor a priest,
an insurance man and book agent. He is
widely travelled, having resided in diff
ferent parts of the country, from the
far south to Canada. According to the
best accounts that cal be given OF his
past history, he was originally a priest,
but was later unfrocked and took up
the study of medicine, practicing In
Texas for several years.
At one place he was arrested on a
shooting charge, but without any con-
viction. He soon gave up medicine and
entered the insurance business, follow
ing it in different capacities and with
different companies until few months
ago, when he filed bankruptcy proceed
