from his wheel to the street below the

He was carried home and given mediea
attention, but has since been confined
to his bed.

bearing the president and Mrs.
McKinley and the party accom
panying them bii the tour through
the west ended its journey here at
7 ;30 o’clock this morning, exactly
on schedule time. Mrs. McKinley
was removed to the carrige in wait
ing and driven slowly to the White
House. She looked pale and worn,
the natural result of the grave
ordeal through which she recently
has passed.
On arrival at the White House
the president and Dr. Rixey, aided
by attendants, carefully lifted Mrs.
McKinley in a chair and earned
her slowly into the White House
and to her apartments.
Dr. Rixey remained over an
hour. As he left the White House
he added: “Mrs McKinley is rest
ing very comfortably. She is
better today then when she left
San Francisco. She is, of course,
still very weak but she is in no
immediate danger. She was

the same hour and at 8:30 p. m. Rev.
Lincoln McConnell, a well known
evangelist, will conduct the meetings,
assisted by the pastors ot the city.
Prof. C. P. Curry will have charge of a
large chorus and will conduct the mu

Everybody is cordially invited and

Got Ho Autograph.
To an applicant for his autograph
Mark Twain on one occasion sent a let
ter the substance of which was as fol
lows:
“To ask a doctor or builder or sculp
tor for his autograph would be In no
way rude. To ask one of these for a
specimen of his work, however, is
quite another thing, and the request
might be justifiably refused. It would
never be fair to ask a doctor for one
of his corpses to remember him by.”
There was no autograph to the letter,
which was typewritten throughout.
