M llis last conscious hour on earth was spent with the wife to whom he had devoted a lifetime of care. He died unattended by a minister of the gospel, but bis last words were an humble submission to the will of the Hod in whom he believed. He was reconciled to the cruel fate to which an assassin's bullet had con demned him and faced death in the same spirit of calmness and poise which has marked his long and honor able career. His last conscious words, reduced to writing by Dr. Mann, who ‘stood at his bedside when they were uttered, were as follows: "Good bye. all. good bye. It is God’s way. His will be done.” His relatives and the members of his official family were at the Wilburn house, except Secretary Wilson, who did nut avail himself of the opportu nity, and some of his personal and political friends took leave of him. This painful ceremony was simple. ick room, took a longing glance at the dying statesman and turned away. He was practically unconscious dur ing this time. But the powerful heart stimulants, together with oxygen, were employed to restore him to consciousness for his iinal parting with his wife. He asked for her, she sat at his side and held his hand. He consoled her and bade her good bye. She went through the scene with the same bravery and fortitude with which she has borne the grief of the tragedy which ended his life.

Thousands surrounded the jail and the* entire police force of the city and the two companies of militia were itilized to insure his protection. W hen the news was imparted to those down stairs, a great sigh of an guish went up from the strong men there assembled.

There was not one among them with ury eyes, and some* moaned in agony of grief. The military guard was augmented immediately upon the announcement.

The gay and flaming decorations of tin Pan-American Kxposition gave way to the symbol «»f sorrow. The black drap ery of the city's streets muffled the tolling bells of the churches. Hits crepe appeared on every sleeve. The sorrow was apparent everywhere. In the morning a simple service took place at the residence on Delaware avenue where the martyred President died. A hymn was sung and prayer was offered over the dead body. That was all. Only the immediate family and the friends and political associates of the late President were present. The scene there was pathetic in the ex treme. Then the body was borne out to the waiting cortege on the brawny shoul ders of eight sailors and soldiers. The cortege passed through solid walls of humanity, bareheaded and grief strick en. to the City hall, where the body lay in state, this afternoon. There a remarkable demonstration occurred which proved how close the President was to the hearts of the peo ple. Arrangements had been made to allow the public to view the body from fb.. it ofph-pH. iihnut 11.30 until 5 o'clock. Hut the people were wedged into the streets for blocks. Two lines were formed. They extended literally for miles. When 5 o'clock came 40,000 people had already passed and the crowds waiting below in the streets seemed undiminished. It was decide to extend the time until midnight. Then for horns longer the streets were dense with people and a constant stream I lowed up the steps of the broad en trance into the hall and past the bier. When the doors were closed at mid night it was estimated that SO.OOO peo r,!e had viewed the remains, but thou sands of disappointed ones were still in the streets. The body will lie in the City hall un til morning. It will lie taken to the sta tion by a military escort, tomorrow morning, and at 8.30 the funeral train will make a start for Washington over the Pennsylvania Railroad. Mrs. Mc Kinley. the President, the cabinet and relatives and friends of the dead Pres id-nt will accompany the remains. Mrs. McKinley bore up bravely, to day. during the service at the Milburn house, and Ur. Kixey. her physician, thinks she will be able to support her trying part in the state funeral at Washington. The day was gray and cheerless. Kong before the time set for the funeral services, the vicinity of the Milburn house was astir with prepara (Contlnued on page 2.)

THE AUTOPSY. .MilLutn House, Buffalo, Sept. 14.— The following re|W>rt of the autopsy upon the remains of President McKin ley was issued at 5 o'clock: The bullet which struck over the breast bone did not pass through the skin and did little harm. The other bullet passed through |>otn walls of the stomach near its lowef border. Both holes were found to be perfectly closed by the stitches but the tissue around each hole had become gangreneous. After passing through the stomach the bullet passed into the back walls of the abdomen, hitting and tearing the upper end of the kidney. This por tion of the bullet track was also gan greneous. the gangrene involving the pancreas. The bullet has not yet been found. There was no sign of peritonitis or disease of other organs. The heart walls were very thin. There was no evidence of any at tempt of repair on the part of nature, and death resulted from the gangrene which affected the stomach around the bullet wounds, as well as the tissues around the further course of the bul let. Death was unavoidable by any sur gical or medical treatment, and was the direct result of the bullet wound. (Signed) Harvey I). Gaylord. M. D. Herman G. Matzinger, M. D. P. M. Rixey, M. D.

M.—Presi dent Roosevelt just took the oath of office at the Ansley Wilcox residence. The house iii which the President took the oath of office is a picturesque I old mansion of colonial style, built i somewhat back in the 3u’s, .and stand ing upon ground once the property of the r. S. government. it was used for some time as an army headquarters. While the house has been added to and improved, it has not been allowed to lose any of its colonial charm. The room in which the oath was taken is ceiled high in dark oak. the tloor heav ily polished, and the only bit of relief to it a bay window. It was in this embrasure where the President and Judge Hazel stood when the oath was administered. 5 The place selected was the library’ i>f Mr. Wilcox's house, a rather small room, but picturesque, the heavy oak trimmings and the massive book-casts giving it somewhat the appearance if a legal den. The pretty bay window, with stained glass and heavy hangings, formed la background, and against this the Pres ident took his position. Surrounding him were the five mem bers of the cabinet. Secs. Root, Hitch cock. Long. Wilson and Postmaster ttenoral Smith. Near by were Senator Chauncey M. Depew. Judge of the Court of Appeals Haieht. John Southard, Mr. and Mrs. Ansley Wilcox, .Miss Wilcox.

FUNERAL AT BUFFALO. (Continued from page 1.) tions. At 9 o'clock long platoons of police (.Ulcers mounted and on root ar rived at the grounds and were posted in details along the streets approach ing the house. For a block in each direction the streets were roped off. The vigilance of the officers in keep ing back those not entitled to admis sion within the reserved area was re doubled. Major General John K. Brooke, com mand'd' of the depaitment of the Hast, who was personally in command ol all the forces participating in the escort, arrived at it* o’clock. He was in lutigue uniform with service sword at Ins side. The two gold stars at the cellar marked his high military rank. Around his left arm was wound a heavy band of crepe. With him were his aides and a half score of other offi cers, all in fatigue uniform with the badge of mourning on their sleeves. The time was now approaching for the service. The tramp of the assem bling military could be heard and the walks leading up to the Milburn house began to bo lined with those who were assembled about the bier. Even amid the stir of essambling a solemn silence prevailed and the division of the es eort came to their posts with silent bands. At 10.30 o'clock, the military and naval detachments took tempo rary station on West Kerry street im mediately around the corner from the -Milburn house. First came Cos. 1 and I- of the Hth I’nited States Infantry stationed at F'oit Porter: following them came a company of the 73d Coast Artillery. There were the men who had been near the President at the moment he was shot and who tocik part in the struggle with his assassin. The Na tional Guard of the State of New York w ity i rjii fstriii.t'U i».> j»hivcu luiiipamcs from tho 74th anil 65th Regts. and 50 min trum tho Uni tod States gunboat Michigan. At their head marched a detainment of marines with gilt trimmed handkerchiefs. Meantime the members of the cabinet, officials high in the governnit nt service and near friends of the martyred President be gun to till the walks leading up to tile entrance. Secretaries Wilson and Hitchcock drove up together and with bowed heads entered the house. Gov. Odell of New York, drove up with his secretary and Representative Lucius Littauer of New York, and following tlie governor came Major Roe. com mander of the National Guard of New York, with his staff of aides, all in full uniform. Sieietary Root walked to the house with Mr. and Mrs. Sprague, at whose house he has been a guest. Two and two marched the foreign commission ers sent to the Exposition and after them the state commissioners. With the other members of the cabinet in tlie city. Secretary Long. Attorney General Knox, Postmaster General Smith, were the close confidants and friends of the late chief. Senator Han na. Judge Uay, Governors Odell. Yates and Gregory, Major General llrooke, 13. H. Butler. H. H. Kohlsaat and many others. It was just eight minutes before the opening of the service when a covered baron he drove up to the house, bring ing President Roosevelt and Mr. and Mrs. Wilcox. The President looked very grave as he alighted and turned to assist Mrs. Wilcox from the car riage. His face did not relax Into a smile to the salutations of those nearest the carriage, but he acknowl edged the greetings silently and with an inclination of the head. Word passed up the well-filled walk that the President h d arrived and those waiting to gain entrance fell back, making a narrow lane through which Mr. Roosevelt passed to the house. As tho President passed within th> house and the services were about t- service was held. The friends and public associates of the dead President all hud opportunity to view the remains before the service begun. The members of the cabinet hail taken their leave before the others arrived. They remained seated beside their dead chief while the sad proces sion viewed the body. They were on the north side of it. A place directly at the head had been reserved for President Roosevelt. Secretary Root sat alongside this empty chair. Then came Attorney (Jeneral Knox. Socie tal y I.ung. Secretary Hitchcock. Secre tary Wilson and Postmaster General Smith in the order named. About 100 in all saw the remains. Some Were so overcome with grief at the sight of the thin, placid counte nance that their frames shook in con vulsive sobs. Several clung to the side of the bier and w ith difficulty could be persuaded to leave. Almost every face was tearstained. Among those in the procession were Senators Fairbanks and Burrows. Gov. Tates of Illinois, Comptroller Dawes, Hen. Mandersor. and Mrs. Manderson, Representative l.ittauer of New York. eX-Postmaster General Wm. Iiissel! and the consulting physicians, most ol whom had met President McKinley personally for the first time after In was stricken. Senator Hanna entered the room at -his time, but did not approach tin casket, llis face was set like tin iron willed man who would not let down the barriers of his grief. The senatoi spoke to no one. His eyes were va cant. He passed through the throat and seated himself behind Gov. Odell sinking far down into his chair am resting tiis head upon his hand. Din ing all the service he did not stir. Just before 11 o'clock, Presiden Roosevelt entered, coming into tin room from the rear through thoia ware Avenue M. K. church, who wa to conduct the service.

Judge Hazel stood near the President in the hay window and the latter showed his almost extreme nervous ness by plucking at the lapel of his long frock coat and nervously tapping the hard wood door with his heel. He stepped over once to Secretary Hoot, and for ubout five minutes they conversed very earnestly. The question at issue was whether the Piefddent should first sign an oath of office or swear in. or whether he should swear in first and sign the document In the case after. At precisely 3.32 o’clock Sec. Root ceased his conversation with the President, and stepping bat k while an absolute hush fell upon everyone In the room, said in an almost inaudible voice: "Mr. Vice President.

There were sympathetic tears from those ubout him. and two gnat drops ran down either cheek of the succes sor of William McKinley. Mr. Hoot's chin was on his breast.

The census bulletins have thus far I* en devoted to the statistics of our population. This branch of the work is now completed, and with Bulletin 5* tin- publication of industrial facts hag begun. I his bulletin is devoted to cot ton ginning and is the first report of its kind ever made by a L'nited States o. nsus Tie reason for this innovation in oui methods of collecting the statli l s of cotton production is interesting. For many years practically the entire cott »n rop reached the markets through th- transportation lines. The i»■ su 11 was that a close approximation to the actual crop was obtained from in- M-imii* i m-s.- carriers. In recent >-ars. however. th-re has been a rapid lopment of cotton manufacturer by '"•Us situaidj near cotton fields. Many thousands of bales that never touch a transput lution line are consumed by these mills In the South which In 18*9 manufactured 12.6 per cent, of the total mp and 34.9 per cent, of the total American consumption. As it Is no longer possible to get an idea of the amount of the crop from the returns of the transportation lines the last census has collected the statistics of h. amount of cotton ginned. >l course everybody knows that prior the invention of the cotton gin by ill Whitney in 1794 the separation cf the seed from the lint had to be done ■iy hand, the task being four pounds of iint per week for c-aeh head of a fatn ly. working at night in addition to the usual field work. It took one person two years to turn out the quantity of otton contained in one average stand red bale. At the present time one ma I bine will gin from three to IS hairs per day. Thus one machine does the work of I .housands of men. In 1790. before the j ott.n gin was dreamed of. our pro I iuetion was SSS9 bales of average weight of 225 pounds. In 1999. the pro Itn non was 9.343.391 bales of an aver tgc weight "f 390 pounds. These latest statistics were obtained by collecting the amount of i otton ginned. The report shows clearly the Impor .ant changes that have occurred in the treas of cotton production. Stimulated the high prices following the Civil war. the cultivation f cotton was con lucted to some extent in California. Illinois. Indiana. Nevada. 1'tah and West Virginia. With the advent of low prices cotton culture gradually disap peared from these sections not pe culiarly adapted to it. The loss in the states lying along the northern border of the cotton belt is. however, more tb. -n offset by the increased produc tion in the territory west and south the.

The audience was one of the largest seen in the Opera House for some time, and there was almost one continuous wave of laugh ter and applause front the time the nv*rtin oil the porirumiglv tircle until it fell upon a quartette of the cleverest dancers ever seen here. There was not one dull moment and. though most of the jokes had attained a pretty respectable age, the audience ovttlooked that in view of the numer ous tuneful songs and bright sketches introduced. The melodies were all .new and of a character calculated to Unger pleasantly in the memory. Kvery number was encored and the performers were particularly generous ni this respect. Hank Goodman was 1 given a flattering reception and with a host of new songs and side splitting stories contributed in no small degree to the evening's entertainment. The local hits introduced into one song re garding the mayor’s official robe and other timely topics treated no end of mirth. The show is free from the slightest suggestiveness of vulgarity, and is. in fact, a thoroughly clean, up to-date minstrel performance calculat ed to give more than usual pleasure. Notes.

Nancy G. and Lady SI. Croix th« Race Winners. Saturday was the closing day of the Somerset Central Agricultural Society's fair and a great day it was. The only unpleasant feature of the day was the universal gloom caused by the death of the well beloved President, which could barely be shaken off even momentarily. On this account the attendance was much smaller and an unusual quietness for such an occasion pervaded the entire as semblage. Many of the visitors coming from their farms were not informed of the sad fact until after they left home or ar rived in town, and it was the chief topic of conversation. The fair in itself was a success the weather was perfect, and a large list of starters made toe races inter esting. It was a typical last day of the fair. The trotting, the exhibits, the midwav with its fakirs, African dodgers and mer chants and, not least of all, the weather, was the typical country fair variety. It was the same old fair we have enjoyed from childhood up, the only difference being the settingmf the- wrene, which.lo calise of the early date of the fair pre vented the nearer brfcKground of the "Coburn woods'-’ and the more distant hills from lending their usual gorgeous luxuriance of autumn foliage which or dinarily adds so much beauty to the scene. All but the* prevailing conscious ness of the death of the Chief Executive the day was all that could be desired. The fair is closed and everyone carries with them tlie anticipation of a similar holiday for next year. The race summaries: 2.20 CLASS-PFRSE $130. Blanch P.. b m. J. O.

Their frail hopes, however, were doomed to dis appointment and shortly before 9.30 o’clock word was received that the President could live but a short time. That this report caused the deepest regret does not do the case justice, and hoping against hope the streets held many who lingered for the slightest encouragement. All was in vain and the sad news reached town early in the morning and was too well known by breakfast time to need repe tition. The tolling church bells and general feeling of depression expressed as words never can of the nation's loss. Not since the assassination of Lincoln or Garfield has there been such a general feeling of regret in town for the death of any person. It was the sole topic of conversation, Saturday, and people of all classes, parties and creeds seemed to feel the loss of a personal friend.

A Pathetic Phase of Life in Parts of the South Nowadays. One of the most pathetic incidents of life in the South nowadays is the 1 effort of families struggling against poverty to retain possession of arti cles that remind them of better times. There are few Southern families of fame who have not at one time or an other acquired furniture or pictures thRt they believed to have a value and have come to be valuable according to the traditions of the family. Now it rarely happens that the worth of these articles correspond in any degree to the fictitious value they have assumed in the minds of their owners. So when the pressure of poverty is felt most strongly and it Is finally decided after much discussion to part with the val uable heirloom, another disappointment awaits the woman—they are always women—who are prepared to make this sacrifice. It' usually turns out that the market value of their furniture is about half what they thought it would be. that their old painting credited by their family for several generations to some famous painter is not really authentic enough to bring a high price, or their old cameos, handsome as they were in their time, are not in the fashion now nor rare enough for the collector's cabinet. The pathetic story of women's poverts in the South is told in the women's ex changes which offer for sale worn watch es. old-fashioned jewelry and other arti cles really of such Utile value that they eloquently describe the degree of lmpe cunlosity that must have led their owners to put them on sale In the hope that they may attraet the attention of North ern’ visitors, I' is to them that such persons always look for buyers. None of the articles is likelv to be bought by their old friends and associates, so their unfortu nate owners depend always on the sup port of the agents who travel through the country In search of antiques or on the visitors who come down during the winter months. Sometimes these cherished articles, af ter a long struggle on the part of their owners, find their way to New York to have their \-alue estimated. It is then that the full extent of their disappoint ment comes Fur years these relics of a former prosperity have seemed valuable assets Eamllv traditions have greatly (increased from generation to generation whatever value they had. This awaken ing which has come to so many women in the South is one of poverty's most pa thetic moments.

Fellows in North Fay ette. There the busy little hornets have built a huge nest against a pane of glass in a barn window so that from the interior of the barn, one can plainly see the interior of the nest anil the diligent little hornets at their work. Three combs have already been built by them and the fourth is now in process of construction. Here they hatch, feed and care for their young, and the sight is certainly worth going quite a distance to see.

Prominent People of Augusta and Vicinity on His Untimely Death. All Have Some Word ol Commendation lor His Noble Lite. herover one goes tin-re is an air of I sorrow at the untimely death of our 1 martyred .-resident. All appear 'Stricken with the common grief com mon to whole nation. There is no place In the city where the events of th** past few days are not viewed in the same light, l’arty lines are set aside and nil classes now realize that a noble, sincere. Christian life has end ed and that the nation has lost one of ts greatest leaders. We give herewith tile expressions of some of the leading men of this city and vicinity in this connection. Hon. John F. Hill, (governor of Maine: I" *!>C death of McKinley tin- nation meets a loss which no man can rneas me in this first hour of grief. Coming 'as it does in the wake of assuring ■news presaging the Kxecutive’s rerov "■y, the blow is the harder to hear. Tile time is not yet ripe to accord President McKinley his linal place in tiie world's Hall of Paine. Years must pass before historians settle those matters, but a world that has watched the great leader as he has worked at the multitudinous problems of an eventful administration will accord him a place among the highest. As a Piesident he will be classed with Washington and Lincoln—wise, watchlul and ever kindly, standing for that which was broadest and highest in the onward and upward growth of the world. To the field of international affairs he lent himself with wonderful aptitude, and into diplomacy he in l'used a new force and placed the United States of America on equal terms with the other nations of the earth. The diplomatic policy of Me Ivinley was always for the right, re gardless of national self-advancement, forgetting never the rights of the un fortunate, und maintaining ever the triumph of right over might. His administration has been typical of the spirit of protection, and under his guiding mind and hand the nation has enjoyed the greatest period of prosperity ever known. But his death will not change this in the slightest degree, for the country will move on in the wao's of prosperity and there will be no overturn in the business world. But it is sail, indeed, that this life should be taken just op the eve i of the nation's greatest development. It does not seem right that he should he delded the .pleasure and the v.ell j earned satisfaction of seeing his plans brought to fruition. In President Roosevelt 1 have every confidence—in his integrity, his patri otism and his ability. He will take up the work so felicitously begun by Mc Kinley. and with sure hand and keen grasp of affairs will see that the na tion takes no backward step in the march of progress. But iu my grief and sorrow there is a touch of shame that such a thing could happen in this great free coun try of ours—in a time of peace when people were met together for good will I pnd harmony. I hate to think that there are men so perverted and lost to all good impulses that within a gen eration three Presidents of this repub lic fall before the hand of the assassin. i William P. Whitehouse of the supreme court: The announcement of President Mc 1 Kinley's death conies to every patri otic citizen with a sense of personal j bereavement, as well as a national loss. |‘Hath I erne his faculties' so meek, and t cell I^So clean in his great office, that his vir tues Will plead like angels, trdmpet-tongued. against Ttie deep damnation of his taking off.' But the blood of the martyrs is the i seed of the church. We are atimim j Pshed that while our government was j organized by the free voice and joint will of the people to promoft* the com I nion defence and general welfare of the people, we nifty have fallen to reach the full height!! of m moti sorrow and mouining the doc'h of the President as a perronal It ss.

Orville I'. Halt general of Maine: The nation is face to face with an overshadowing public sorrow, and mere commonplaces of sympathy should have no plai e. President Mc Kinley was a man of many wonderful arul endearing qualities. His absolute dignity and poise, under all the varied requirements of his high office, have never been surpassed by any ruler of a great people, and the people knew I this and loved him for it. His tact in dealing with men, vvheth- er equals or inferiors, was very exeep- tional, and was the unerring guide which piloted him safely through the stormy vicissitudes of his public life. His instinct for the popular will was keen and sure, and 1 think no Presi- dent since Lincoln has ever been in 1 such close touch with the true mind of l the people. At the same time he aimed always at the best and highest, and onscien- 1 tiyusly ;.t,''pv£ for them .in every public, or private action. Whether we agiee,l I or differed ffoni his conclusions, no man ever doubted his absolute inleg- i rity of. purpose and hi.s faithful desire to accomplish what Was best for the! American people. Jlis name will live in 1 imperishable honor and his tragic1, death will be mourned the world over, j The great President is dead, but ih government still lives, and will purge' itself of tlie disgrace and crime which pernicious doctrines have engendered.

A widow, two daughters, Mrs.; Edgar Dow of Vas salboro. and Mrs. Charles W. Bailey of Augusta, and one son. Frank Lowell of Bittstield, Mr-., survive him.

It has been the desire of Stcretary MoKeen. in this number, to place before the people a carefully prepare 1 statement as to the condition of apples, not only j in Maine, but in some of the principal tipple-growing slates of„ this section of the country. The average for the j State was made up from the returns furnished by some of the best irchaid isls in Maine, and it is thought that they represent the condition of the fruit crop as accurately as it is possi ble to secure it at this time. Regarding the fruit crop in other suites, there seems to be a shortage of apples everywhere. Vermont re ports scarcely any fruit, and about one-fourth of an apple crop. Connecti cut reports the smallest apple crop for several years, but an abundance of peaches, pears, plums and grapes. New Jersey will get an average crop of peaches, hut the apple crop will be about -in per cent. Tn Pennsylvania the general fruit crop is far below the av erage and the apple crop is a failure. In the State, the average of the fruit crop conditions in different counties are as follows: Androscoggin. 36 pa rent.

Pastors of Augusta Present Various Lessons from President’s Death. fit Noble Christian Lite an Excellent Example for Imitation b> People. Tlio pastors of the different churches >t the city drew their themes, yester terday, mainly from the events of the l>ust few days. The exemplary career uf the President, the terrible crime of his assassin, the method to be pursued in dealing with the Anarchists, all fur nished subjects from whieh to draw lessons for the improvement of our moral, social and political condition in Ate coming years of our history. Ev erywhere the event was looked upon p a national calamity. The universal opinion of the speakers was that Mr. McKinley would live in the hearts of the people as a great hero, a states man. and above all a man of the high est Christian character. The whole service at the Unitarian ihurch was in accord with the thought md feeling of the hour. The two fa vorite hymns of the dead President. "Lead Kindly Light" and "Nearer My 5od to Thee." were sung by the choir snd the congregation. The Seiiptural .elections were especially appropriate. I lev. Mr. Newbert spoke simply of the ■vents of the past few days and of the -ituation growing out of the Presi dent's death. After quoting the well known lines from the tomb of Garfield, lie went on to say: There is but one theme for the American churches, to day. The President is dead. Sorrow oveishadows the land and the whole nation is sobered and saddened. I am prepared neither to eulogize the noble man nor to review the splendid career of the President. Yet I cannot permit the occasion to pass without one word of appreciation, both of the man and Hie President. The American people have called to their highest office no truer man than William McKinley, nor has a broader or abler statesman filled the Presidential office. Kike Washing ton anil Lincoln, lie has stamped his personality upon a distinct epoch in ttie enuse'of freedom, the emancipation of man. Let no one be influenced by the alarmists. Not all at once have we fallen upon evil times. Anarchism is a spasm that will pass away. It is an ugly ulcer that must he cleansed and healed: yet so as not to imperil liberty or deny the light of a free press and free speech. In President McKinley's death neither the peace nor the pros perity of the country is threatened. However good the man or strong the ruler, he is not Indispensible in a coun try such as ours. Lincoln was taken in an hoar when the grave issues of war all but made men afraid: but the government survived Lincoln: Garfield was shot down but responsible gov ernment continued. So will it now he. Already another firmly holds the reins of rule. President Roosevelt is not un tried. He is an American, a brave sol dier. an honest man: and the future is before him and us. With cleaner poli tics. with juster laws, with equal rights, with a truer patriotism and higher public ideals, we shall yet es teem ourselves worthy the great and sacred trust of civic liberty. At St. Mark's church: The Rev. Geo. F. Degen preached from the text. "And how dieth the wise man? As the fool." (Eccles. ii:16. Toward the close he said, in part: There is a special application to be made of this subject to our hearts, to day. When such a life as that of our late beloved President passed away by the foul hand of an assassin, men hold their breath, shocked not more by the violent outrage than by the sense of incongruity which instinctively pre sents itself to the mind. Men do not wonder when the murderer's stab reaches the despot, who uses his power onlv to minister to his own gratifica tion. But a life which from young manhood has been one of patient toil, pure and upright, replete with all hu man sympathies, humble as yours or mine while filled with a noble ambi tion. working out that ambition only i... i, r.iitHfui (loins: of the duty which from Jay to day lay next his hand, winning the respect and love ot men as it grew, until at last a nation gladly crowned its modest brow with the highest honor in its gilt to bestow -that such a life should meet with such an ending brings us face to face again with the old question which stirred the heart of Solomon. Why. then, was he more wise? The wise man dieth as the fool." Yet no one. I think, ean hate watched the bulletins from that sick bed for the past week, certainly no i.no can have road the story of the final passing of that soul, without feel ing that God has given him through it. new strength for his °»n llft-■ as every heroism, thank God. in. i in the breast of those who witness it With what subltmer words could any ife end than those. "It is Go**^ lis will, not ours, be done If i mnorable career the youth of this land vill ever find an incentive to earnest l^rl^htPPt lesson ndeavor, surely the bri„n hat stands out front that life, for ol nd young alike. Is to lie gat tete ts ending. He was a man of brilliant ibilities: be won high honor and ex died station: yes.-but through it ail .e was not ashamed to be known as he servant of Jesus Chris Whateter lis ambitions, his personal hopes and lives and longings, he laid them all at he feet of One to whom he owed all ,nd without a murmur submitted W» drong will to the will of his God.

"There is no God not to the worldling, not to him who has made Measure the chief end and aim of hy ng. but only to him who is wise with leavenly wisdom, comes such an end ,s this.

Hope of the Winthrop Street Baptist church, spoke briefly of the great calamity which has come to the people in the events of the past few .lays. The pulpit was draped in iht* national colors anti at one side was a large portrait of the late President. Rev. Fr. Doherty of St. Mary's church, devoted the larger part of the service to the recent death of the President at the hands of an assassin. He paid a glowing tribute to Mr. Mc Kinley as u man and a statesman. Special prayers were offered in behalf of the departed and that his successor might prove as worthy the great posi tion to which lie had succeeded as has Mr. McKinley. Rev. Norman McKinnon of the Cun gregational church. delivered a ser mon on the general subject. "Men tvho have caused the right to triumph." His text was. "Know ye not that there is a prince and a great man fallen this day. The Lord shall reward the doer of evil according to his wickedness." Tho speaker referred to the assassina tion of Lincoln as being incited by sec tional hatred, of Garfield, by disup |>ointed ambition, but that of McKin ley by an organized band of assassins. He said that five rulers of great na tions of the civilized world had fallen during the past four years, victims of the plots of this society: Carnot, Pres ident of Frame: Cunovas, prime min ister of Spain: Elizabeth. Empress of Austria; Humbert. King of Italy: and William McKinley, President of the L'nited Slates. He was emphatie in his rernaiK that "anarchy will never cure anarchy and for the mob to lynch the assassin would be to udopt the method of the murderer himself." “Ten thou sand battles," he said, "and ten thou sand martyrs are the price of our democracy.” lie paid a tribute to the nobility of the character of our de parted President, making clear that he died as he had lived, a revelation of Christian fortitude, unselfish courage, self-control and a forgiving spirit, em bodying those principles uttered by himself in his masterly speech on the Exposition grounds the day previous to his assassination. In closing he said: "Not the men who have brought down other lives with the sword but the men who have laid down their own lives through an unresisting faith in the triumph of right through moral prowess have prepared the way for the advance of man. The world lives upon the lives of love that are given for its redemption and perfection. Suf fering rightly endured is ministry to mankind. This common sorrow is drawing all men together." At the Free Baptist church, in an ticipation of the coming union service, the pastor made no extended reference to the recent death of the President. Hut the sad affair was earnestly re membered in prayer. Miss Matilda W. Atkinson referred briefly to the common sorrow of our people in her sermon at the Water Street Mission. The services at the Universalist t-hiirch were in keeping with the solemnity of the occasion. I he pas toi. the Rev. Charles A. Hayden, de livered a discourse upon the lessons that we as a people should draw from the calamity that has befallen the na tion He spoke at length of the noble life and deeds of our late President. The music was appropriate to the oc casion. The Life and Character of William Mc Kinley. Third Martyred President of til. r niied States, was made the theme of the services in the morning at the Methodist church. The altar rail was decorated with the national tag. covering the communion table upon which rested a "rge portrait of the late Presi dent framed ill black. The congregation loin,Ml in reading responsively the trest iionin-ft ••nie^scni is the man. nie !,v, "i.'e hvmns of -Mother McKinley” nul of her son were sung. The Ret. H.
