State. Washington: Mr. Wilson hasdevel-

of a mild type. Dr. Mallet Provost, whom
I sent from here to Aguas Calientes to see
him, has had him removed to Guadalajara,

secretary of the congressman. Young
Mr. Wilson had already received a dis
patch from his father asking Uiin to be
sure to pay the premium on his life in
surance policy, due Feb. 27. Mr. Wil
son added only that his health had not
improved. The receipt of these dis
patches has alarmed Congressman Wil
son’s relatives and friends here.
Congressman Wilson’s physical condi

tariff bill, and his ph/sician and friends
united in ur <ing him to take a ’ong va

Mexico, beli-virig that a sojourn in the
high altitudes of that comparatively
mild climate would prove beneficial.
The disease which was lurking in his

The point he has now reached is one of
the healthiest in Mexico, and his friends
hope to hear of his speedy recovery.

Savannah, Feb. 27.—A special to. the
Evening Press says: At a dinner given
by Dr- H. C. White, of the State Uni
versity, to Hoke Smith, secretary of the
interior, the later was called on and re
sponded and in the course of his remarks
paid a high tribute to President Cleve
land.
He said he had been called callous an 1
stubborn, but it is not so. He is a man
whom to tully appreciate, one must
know*intima ly. It is known that he
is a man slow to form opinions. He
takes a question, weighs it thoroughly,
and hears all sides, and oue may
think at the first that he is not
making any impression on him he hears
all you have to say and thinks over it.
He considers all things and when be has
exhausted all points of the question ann
believes he has reached the truth then
he forms his opinion and decides what
is the right thing to do and then he is
immovable, he is firmness itself, and
might as well try to move the mountain
of stone in DeKalb county as to change
this man’s co victions.
“I admire his firmness,” the speaker
said, “I admire his courage; I admire
his truthfulness, I would say to you
now, that 11, u more of a Cleveland man
today than I was last November, one
year ago, when I cast my vote for Gro
ver Cleveland.
“There are many who say: he should
do this, that, and the other, while he
should not o things he does. I tell
many of these people that they do not
know what they say and these very
people at the close of the next three
years will re ’ize their error, for then
results will c tow him to be onr friend
and still onr Democratic president.”
