DETECTIVE AL GALLAGHER
PASSES AWAY AT CHICAGO

Word has been received here that
Albert Gallagher, one of the best
known men in the United States Sc
cret service and well known here,
where he took a prominent part in the
mint affairs during the un~pleasantness
connected with that place, has died AT
Chicago from injuries received at Buff
falo, when President Mckinley was
shot to death. A dispatch from Chica-
go says:
Albert Gallagher, for many years in
the secret service and one of those de-
tailed as the personal body guard 81
the late President Mckinley at the
time of his assassination. died here
today. q
1t was Gallagher who seized the
wrist of Czolgosz as the fatal shot was
fired and wrenched the weapon from
his hand. Gallagher was mistaken by
the crowd for the assassin and was set
upon and beaten, and to this fact, ac-
NoiuihS W Inv alt'hHihB Phy 7iNA"H'
Gallagher's death was indirectly due.
An affection of the liver developed
from injuries he received at the time.
After his appearance at Buffalo Gal
lagher was under a physicians care
for a time, sbut the extent of his IN
iuries was not realized. He was later
transferred from Chicago to st. Paul,
where he became i'll and untitled for
duty last October. He was attended
recently in Chicago by Drs. G. r.
Springfield and c. A Storey. The for
mer said today that the immediate
cause Of death was cancer of the liver
and that in all probability it was u
result Of the rough handling received
at the hands of the crowd following
the shooting in Buffalo.
Gallagher was one Of the men APP
pointed to guard the person of Count
Witte of Russia at the treaty confer
ence between representatives of Japan
and Russia at Portsmouth, N. H., and
was given a watch and chain by the
Russian nohleman in token of apprecia-

WHAT is LIFE TO YOU

baltimore sum-
To the preacher life's a sermon,
To the joker it's a jest;
To the miser life is money
To the loafer life is rest.
To the lawyer life's a trial,
To the poet life's a song;
To the doctor life's a patient
That needs treatment right along.
To the soldier life's a battle,
To the teacher life's a school;
Life's a good thing to the CRATER.
It's a failure to the fool.
To the man upon the engine
Life's a long and heavy grade;
It's a gamble to the gambler,

Lies a picture to the artist,
To the rascal life's a fraud;
Life, perhaps, is but a burden
To the man beneath the hod.
Life is lovely to the lover.
To the player life's a play;
Life may be a load of trouble
To the man upon the dray.
Life is but a long vacation

Lies a story ever new;

best known newspaper men in the
state. He has been identified with the

dawned on the political horizon, Mr..
Haley has been one Of the heartiest sup
porters that the man from Ely has
had. 1t is but natural that when the
opportunity came the governor showed
his appreciation of Haley's work in
his behalf. The appointment win be

the craft receiving recognition at the
