before she could get the mayors Office,
because no one had arrived there. and
when she did she was assured that
nothing had happened. A little later
Mrs Gaynor called up the mayors of
flee again ana said she was sure some
thing had gone wrong She didn't
know how to explain it. she said. but
she felt that something had happened.
One of the clerks in the mayors Of
fee called up the Manhattan hotel
and found that the mayor had left
there some time before. Hoboken was
also called, and word came back that
nothing out of the ordinary had hap
pened Mrs. Gaynor was informed OF
this. but 1t did not seem to reassure
her.
At $50 o'clock. after talking with
her children. Mrs. Gaynor felt better
and went out on the grounds of her
home to walk around to get the air.
1t was 10 O'Clock when she suddenly
grew faint and had a severe attack OF
nausea She went into the house and
told her daughter that she was con-
WINGED something had happened. A
few minutes later the message came
that the mayor had met with an acct
dent and that she must come to New
York at once.
From that time on Mrs. Gaynor has
shown herself to be woman OF most
remarkable pluck and helpmate In
every sense of the word. She has
spent every moment of her time at the
hospital. not only assisting in nursing
her husband. but cooking for him
many of the home dishes that he
proudly says cannot be beaten the
world over Especially is the mayor
fond of Mrs. Gaynor's coffee. The
morning after he had been shot he
awoke with good appetite and i'm
mediately called for something to eat.
EVERYTHING went well until he tried
the coffee
"It doesn't taste just right to me-"
he told Mrs. Gaynor. Couldn't you fix
me cup as you fix it for me at homer!
OF course Mrs. Gaynor assured him
that she would be delighted to do so.
She went straightway to the hospital
kitchen and brewed the mayors coffee
in her own way. She bore him the
steaming cup herself. He drank the
coffee to the last drop and then said:
"That was just finer And since
then she has prepared all his coffee.

shows less concern for the condition
Of the mayor than he does for the
bruises that were left him from the
manhandling he experienced at the
hands Of Commissioner Edwards.

Side Lights
On the
Gaynor Case

NTHEEeN. EN-. Mayor Gaynor of New
York was shot on the Kai-
ser Wilhelm der Crosse re-
Gently he showed himself to
be man of remarkable nerve, and
few would have acted as coolly as he
did under such terrible circumstances.
And there is another member of the
Gaynor family that deserves much
praise In this connection. This is the
mayors wife, who never for an in
slant lost her nerve or gave way to
hysteria, although having every rea-
son to believe that her husband was
at the point of death. After the at
tempt to assassinate him she was
promptly at his bedside in the hospital
with words of cheer, and the way she
has stood the fearful strain since then
has won the applause Of the whole ma
ton.
1t Is now coming to light that short
~ before the shooting Mrs. Gaynor
had almost remarkable premonition
that something was going to happen to
on his trip to Europe. The mayor was
to sail on a Tuesday, but the day be-
fore, in order to catch the steamer, he
bade farewell to all of the members
Of his family save his son Rufus, who
was going to Europe with him. Then
he went to the Manhattan hotel, in
New York city, where he spent the
night. 1t seems that at o'aock Tues
day morning Mrs. Gaynor got up and
called her daughter Gertrude. She said
to her:
81 have the queerest feeling about
your father I feel that something has
happened to him or is going to happen
to him."
Miss Gaynor laughed at the idea and
tried to argue her mother out of it, but
Mrs. Gaynor grew more depressed
than ever and finally insisted on call
ing up the city hall. 1t was some time

Eh1EN TEhhI AND Mis-. PHILLIP SNOWOEN.
1t is at her farm in Small Hythe,
Tenterden. England. that Miss Terry

beginning the last day of October.
Here she potters about in her garden
among her animals and with her
guests. seeming to bring pets as well
as friends under the spell of her mag

seems to mean to see with her eyes
and to make the love Of Shakespeare

on the other the two most gorgeously
attractive things on earth.
Miss Terry finds it hard to resist
pretty country cottages and has a
habit Of buying them when they strike
her fancy. In all she has seven at
present. She keeps on buying more all
the time, so that generally there are
two or three charming Terry cot
tages in various parts of England for
sale, as, in fact, there are at the pres
ent moment. But Small Hythe is her
favorite, and it is there that she will

Chicago, May 26.-Wheat prices

the market had declined cents a
bushel for the September future.
July wheat sold down to 4 3-4 cents
and closed at IA cents lower than
last night. The brokers were nearly
frantic in their efforts to sell wheat
and at times the pit was pandemoni-
um. Better weather conditions and
bearish foreign news caused wave

higher prices were unable to stem

The Minneapolis market was not in

The navy department has authen-

have Nicaraguan register and is en-.

is thought that she may be partly
owned by American capital but that
in no sense entitled her to the pro-

Washington, May 26.-Resuming his
speech in opposition to the railroad

today, Senator LaFollette undertook
to prove that instead of the rates ad-
vancing, all the economic conditions
demanded that they should have been
materially lowered during the past
few years. In support Of this conten-
tion he cited the density of traffic, the
short average length of the haul and
the efficiency of the transportation
facilities, all of which, he said, had
been vastly increased. In view of the
expectation that Senator LaFollette
would consume the larger part of the
day, there was no activity to vote ON
