trance stood with uncovered heads, the
remains were carried to Sixth street and
placed In the hearse. As tho ' caskc.t
emerged a buglo notn rose clearly and
"taps" rang out. That whs the only sound
that broke tho dead alienee.
Just beyond tho entranco to the; s.tatlori
President Roosevelt, with the members of
tho cabinet, had paused and had so sta
tioned themselves an to leave a broad space
for the funeral cortege. They ranged them
selves on the sldowalk In double rows op
posite each other and stood with bared
heads as the corpso was carried to the
hearse, drawn up at tho sldo of tho gate.
1ho hearse was an exquisitely carved affair
and wan drawn by six coal black horses,
rich of which was led by a colored groom
l black llvrry.
t'lintnurnpher Intrudes llliimelf.
Just as tho body was being placed In the
hearse an Incident occurred that caused a
murmur of disapprobation. A photographer
ffri-m a nearby window suddenly flashed a
light for tho purposo of obtaining a repro
duction of tho scone. Tho flashlight and
accompanying noise made people shudder.
President Roosevelt seemed to be momen
tarily disconcerted.
Tho hearse bearing tho third martyred
president quickly moved away and was fol
lowed at onco by President Roosevelt and
thoso accompanying him. In the president's
carriage bcilde Mr. Roosevelt were Secre
tariat Hay nnd Gage and Captain Cowles:
Secretaries Root and Hitchcock and Attor
ney General Knox and Postmaster General
Smith followed In another carriage, while
Secretary Wilson, Secretary Cortelyou, Sec
retary Long and Senators Hanna nnd Fair
banks drove behind In other carriages. The
citizens' committee from Buffalo, officers of
the army and navy and friends followed.
As the procession swept from tho Sixth
street station Into Pennsylvania avenue a
deeply Impressive sight was presented. The
historic thoroughfare was hung In black.
Embloms of tho nation's mourning .wero
displayed on every building. Tho Starr and
Stripes, furlod and knotted with crepe,
floated from hundreds of .windows., Over
all gleamed coldly scores of electric lights,
defining each detail of the solemn scene.
Washington "Veep.
Banked on each side of Sixth street to the
executive, mansion wero tens of thousands
of people. They wero como to pay their
tribute of respect to tho memory of their
president. With bared' heads and 'without
murmur of sound the people watched, with
toar-stalnod eyes the last homecoming, of
President MeKlnley. There was no music.
Amid the hush ot tho great crowds only the
clatter of the horses' hoofs, ringing sharply
upon the pavements, was heard. A platoon
of mounted police In command ot 3crgcant
Matthews led the way. Next came a dele
gation of Grand Army tit the Republic racu
from the Department ot tho Potomac, mem
ber of tbe Union Veterans' union and the
Spanish war veterans and Troop U of tbo
Eleventh cavalry from Fort Meyer, Va.
Following the cavalry men waa the hearse,
flanked on either aide by the body-bearers,
with a detachment of signal corps men
bringing up the rear. The carriages con

Dress Goods
JJo fashion what it may, there
1110 dress goods here for every de
gree of style and state, from the
exquisite French fabrics at $3.00 to
$5.00 a yard to the handsome plain
serviceable stuffs nt 2oe to 50c a

citv, you will not see another such
carriage containing Mrn. MeKlnley, Dr.
Rlxey and Abner MeKlnley had preceded
the funeral' cortege to tho White House by
somo llttlo time. Dr. Rlxey was the first
to alight and thon Abner MeKlnley', They
tenderly assisted Mrs. McKlnlev to the
stairs. With her right arm rcitlng heavily
upon tbe shoulder or her dead husband's
brother And supported on (ho other sldo
W Dr. .Rlxey who walked Jlowly along the
stone flagging Into the house.
.Mr. MeKlnley Still llciirliiK l'p.
She was. closely Veiled, but her. feeble
steps told the story of her great suffering.
She was assisted at onco to tho elevator
nnd to her old room and soon retired. Dr.
Rlxey ud Mr. Cortolyou later Hold that
she had stood the Journey very well, Iddeed.
and that they confidently expected that she
would complete the sad journey to her old
home without difficulty. Among thone who
know hor best and were with her at Buf
falo It Is doubted whether sho yet fully
realizes tho calamity that haa befallen her
and It Is with somo apprehension that they
look forward to the first days alone In
Canton. "The major," as she always lov
ingly called her husband. Is still with her,
but when she finds ho Is reall de-id the
awakening may try her strength even bo
yond the point yet reached. The result can
not bo foretold.
When tho sad cortege 'arrived at the
Whlto House the hearse stopped under the
porltco arch. Tho body-bearers lifted the
coffin on their shoulders and passing up the
threo steps waited until Prcsldont Roosevelt
and the members of tho cabinet had alighted
from their carriages and followed them.
Where the Casket Reals,
jubi in iuu ccmer ni ine i-.asi room, under
the groat chandelier, they deposited their
precious burden; tupon stf'b'Uck draped base
and, stood nt fsalute whlje the new chief
excclitlvo and the cabinet, members, with
bowed heads, passed by,, Following them
came the chief ofllcers ot the army and
navy now In the city, tho guard of honor
and officers of tbe Loyal Legion, members
of tho Union Veterans' union and the Grand
Army of the Republic.
President Roosevelt, accompanied by the
membera of tho cabinet, left the house al
most Immediately and were driven' to their
homes.
Tho casket had been placed lengthwise of
tho East room, the head to the north. .Piled
about It were a half hundred floral emblems
of exceptional beauty and as many more
were placed In the Inside corridor until to
morrow. Two marines, a sailor and a sol
dier, stood guard on each corner of the
casket, while seated on either aide were
two membera of the Grand Army or 'the
Republic nnd two' membera of tbe Loyal
Legion. Those are relieved at Intervals of
two hours during the night. Defore mid
night the household bad retired to rest and
the only lights to be seen were those In the
room where his comrades kept watch over
their dead chief.
An Interesting Incident of the parade was
the singing of "Nearer, My God, to Thee,"
by a group of spectators just as the hearso
containing the late president's remalnt,
turned from the Sixth street depot Into
Pennsylvania avenue. The air waa taken
up by tho throng and sung with feeling.
Again as the hearse passed tbrougn tho
gateway of the White House tbe samn
strains were softly sung by a number of
people across tho avenue.
It was through a living lane of bare
beaded people stretching from Buffalo up
over the Alleghenles down Into the broad
valley of tbe Susquehanna and on to the
marbln city on tho banks of the shining
P6tomac that the nation's martyred presi
dent today made his last Journey to the
sent ot tho government over which he pre
sided for rour and one-half years.
The whole country seemed to have drained
Its population to the sides of the traqk
over which the funeral train passed. The
thin lines through- tbo mountains and the
sparsely settled districts, thickened at the
little hamlets, covered acres in towns, sud
denly grown to the proportions qf respecta
ble cities and wore congested -Into vast mul
titudes In tbe larger cities.' Work was
suspended "hi field aud mine and city. The
schools were dismissed and everywhere ap
peared the trappings and tokens ot woe.
A million flaga at halt-mast dotted hill
side and valley and formed a thicket of
color over the cities And from, llmnst ev
ery banner streamed a bit ot crepe. The
stations were neavy witu the black symbols
ot mournlug. At all the larger town and
Cities after the train cot Into Pennsylvania.
mllltlnmon drawn up at present arms kept
bacK tne enormous erowds,
Only ftouiula of l.amrntliin.
The silence with which the countless
throngs viewed tho remains was oppressive
and profound. Only the rumbling .of the
train's wheels, the sobs from men and
women with tear-stained faces and the dole
ful tolling ot tbe church bells broke on
the ear. At several places the chimes
played Cardinal Newmon's grand hymn.
Taken altogether the Journey home was the
most remarkable demonstration of universal
personal sorrow since Lincoln was borne
to his grave.
Every one of those who came to pay their
last tribute to the dead had an opportunity
to catch a glimpse of the nag-covered bier,
elevated to view in the observation car.
There was np other bit of color to catch
the eye on this train of death. The loco,
motive .was shrouded In back. The cur
tains of the rar in which wero the lonely,
stricken widow, the relatives of tbe presi
dent, cabinet and other were drawn. The
whoh black train was like a shuttered
house, save, only for that hindmost car,
wbcre the body lay, guarded by a soldier of
the army and a sailor of the navy,
Mr. MeKlnley with the Dead.
Mrs, MeKlnley stood tho trip bravely.
In the morning, soon after leaving Buffalo,
sho pleaded so oarnestly to be allowed to
go Into the car where her dear one lay
that reluctant assent was given and she
Spent half an hour beside tho coffin.
All the way the train was preceded about
fllteen minutes by u pilot engine, sent
ahead to test the bridges and switches and
prevent tho possibility ,of an accident to
the precious burden It carried. The train
had the right-of-way over everything. Not
ft wheel moved on tbe Pennsylvania rail
road system thirty minutes before the
pilot engine was due, or for the same
length of tlmo after the train had passed.
.Oencral Superintendent J. D. Hutchinson
had sent out explicit Instructions covering
every detail. The order Included: "Every
precaution must be taken by all employes
to make this move absolutely certain."
General Boyd, assistant passenger agent,
had personal charge of the train. Tho
train loft Buffalo at 8:30 this morning and
arrived at Washington at 8:38 p. ni. In
twelve hours It Is estimated over 500,000
people saw the coffin which held all that
was mortal of President MeKlnley.

The Dlweatloii Klement Left Oat.
Bread dyspepsia Is common. It affects
the bowels because white bread Is nearly
all starch, and starch Is digested In tho
Intestines, not In the stomach proper.
Up under the shell of 'the wheat berry
Nature has provided a curious deposit
which Is turned Into diastase when It Is
subjected to the saliva and to the pan
creatlo Juices in tho human Intestines,
This diastase is absolutely necessary to
digest starch and turn It Into grape-sugar,
which Is the next form: but that part or the
wheat- berry makes dark flour, and the
modorn miller cannot readily sell dark
flour, so nature's valuable dlgestor Is
thrown out and tbe human system must
handle the starch as best It can, without
the help that Nature Intended.
Small wonder that appendicitis, periton
itis, constipation, nnd all sorts of trouble
exist, ,whon we go so contrary to Nature's
law. Tho food oxports that perfected
Orape-Nuts Food, knowing these facts,
made use, In their experiments, ot the en
tire wheat and barley, Including all tho
parts, and subjected them to moisture,
and long rontlnucd warmth, which allows
time and tbe proper conditions tor de
veloping the diastase, outside or the human
body.
In this way the starchy part Is trans
formed Into grape-sugar In a perfectly
natural manner, without tho use of chemi
call or any outside Ingredients. The little
sparkling crystals ot grape-sugar can be
seen on tho pieces or Grape-Nuts. This
food therefore is naturally pre-dlgested
and its hie In the place ot bread wll
quickly correct the troubles thai have been
brought about by the too free use of starch
In the food, and that Is very common In
the human race today.
The effect of eating Grape. Nuts ten days

BUFFALO HAS A LAST LOOK
noil- of (he Martyred President Taken
from the City He Kntereil
Ha PromtslnRly. v
BUFFALO, Sept. 1. The silent form of
William MeKlnley was borne from this
city In Impressive state this morning and
taken on Its last Journey to tho national
capital.
Just eleven days ago he came to the Pan
American exposition in full health and
vigor. He was received with an enthusiasm
that was unprecedented In tbo annals ot the
city and for twenty-four hours enjoyed
himself thoroughly. The story of the foul
est of assassinations, the pathetic stride to
recovery, a outwardly demonstrated, while
death was slowly working on the vitals, the
brenthlcss hopes of n nation and loved
ones, tho terrible twenty-four hours of
suspense when death made Its final demand
against the human skill, all are matters
of history now. Tbe brilliant statesman
who but twenty-four hours before had out
lined his future policy to nn assembly at
tho Pan-American, the learned guest of
a great city, was taken out In silent splen
dor, his career ended as far ns his domlnnnt
personality Is concerned. Thousands upon
thousands watched the Impressive proces
sion this morning moving toward the depot,
It was doubly Impressive bccatise of Its
lack or gorgeousness nnd because or tho
fact that, closely behind the pall-covered
corpso of the dead president, followed tho
successor to the title.
Buffalo stirred early this morning, but
early as Us Inhabitants, curious or sympa
thetic, awaiting a chance to get an ad
vantageous place from which to view the
departure of the dead president, police and
soldiery had anticipated them.
Keep the Ntreet Ctonr.
At the Mllburn mansion, where the
family of the dead statesman slept, at tho
Wilcox mansion, where the now president
reposed, and down town near the city hall,
where tho silent form or tho former presi
dent lay, tho guards were formed early
and the streets kept clear of wagons.
It was not a particularly fine morning.
Tho sun shone, but the wind blew In
strong, fitful gusts across the city, tearing
down tho draping and raising clouds of
dust. '
At the Mllburn mansion, where Mrs. Me
Klnley was, tho servants were astir enrlv
and there wbb more activity about the
house than has been seen since the shoot
ing. By 6:30 o'clock" there wero transfer
wagons and carriages drawn up at the
corners near the house and those within
were up and preparing for the Journey to
Washington.
Mrs. MeKlnley was not awakened until
after 7 o'clock, when Dr. Rlxey went to the
room with one of her attendants. She
had not slept well despite the fact that she
in almost thoroughly exhausted and that Dr.
Rlxey had given her n sleeping potion.
Tbe first thing she asked wns a repetition
of the query of tbe last two days: "When
can I see the major?" Dr. Rlxey told her
that they were4 going to let her see him
todny and she then let her attendants dress
her and at 7: 45. was ready for her light
breakfast, whlchshc took In her room alone.
At 7:30 the baggage was roady nnd two
truckloads ot It moved to the depot. One
wagon was a hospital bed and It wns
thought that this was tor the use of Mrs.
MeKlnley, In view of the certainty of the
fatigue of the Journey and the possibility
of a collapse.
Colonel Bingham, who was In charge of
tho arrangements, said at 7:45 that none
of the party would go to the olty ball, wbcre
the body, lay, but that alt Would go directly
to the train. This would be done on Mrs.
McKlnley's account. At 7:32 the Misses
Duncan, nloces of the late president, were
driven to the train so that thoy might
arrange all comforts possible for the
stricken widow,
A few minutes later Senator Fairbanks,
Comptroller of the Currency Dawes and
Etmer Dover, secretary to 8enatpr Hanna,
emerged from tho house and entered a
carriage. Following, a White House mes
senger rushed down the walk and ordered
the windows In one of the carriages closed.
Mrs. MeKlnley Starts.
At 7:45 several figures stepped silently
out upon the porch and walked down toward
the carriages. Mrs. William MeKlnley,
robed In garbs ot mourning and supported
by Abner MeKlnley on ono side and ' Dr.
Rlxey on the other, was the central figure
To the surprise' of all she walked briskly-,
with her hoad quite erect, her face hidden
behind her long black veil. She got Into
the carriage with her favorite nioce, Miss
Barber, Abner MeKlnley and Dr. Rlxey and
they were driven at once to tbo depot. So
far as could be seen she sat erect and un
supported In the carriage.
The family of Abner MeKlnley, other rela
tives of tho dead president and Secretary
Cortelyou followed In other carriages, and
the Mllburn house, famous now because of
Its conuoctlon wHh a great national tragedy,
went back Into the possession of Its-owner,
who had so kindly given It up to the use ot
the president and his ramlly.
Tho street corners near tho house, which
ror a week had been crowded with news
paper men, telegraphic booths nnd, waiting
carriages, resumed their wonted appear
ance: the military guard was withdrawn,
the police resumed tbolr normal occupation
and the exciting Incidents that hav marked
tho locality became a memory.
President Roosevelt did not nrso until 7
o'clock. Ho dressed quickly and at 7:30
was ready for breakfast. He breakfasted
with tho family of his host, Ansley Wllrox.
Just after 8 o'clock had struck, together
with Mr. Wilcox and his secretary, William
Loeb, Jr., be got Into the carriage' and
drove to the train, A fw mounted pollcu
followed tho carriage and three or four
detectives and secret service men were
near by. Otherwise there was nothing to
distinguish the president from any other
citizen. '
The slow and stately progress ot the
president's body from the city hall to the
railroad station afforded the people of Buf
falo an opportunity to do honor to the la
mented executive.
Prorrnaion Mart I'ruraptly,
At daybreak the ulty hall wan as quiet
and peaceful as the dead within lt walls.
Statue-Ilk the guard or honor nt the
catafalque maintained its position through
out the long hours ot the night. There
was a sergeant ot artillery at the head ot
tbe bier, a marine at the foot. At one side
was a sergeant or Infantry, on the other a
marine. The massive wooden doors of the
building were closed and the Iron outer
gates were bolted,
It was a few minute after 7 o'clock when
there came sign of lire from within the
corridor, where' the body or the presldrnt
roposed. The doors were flung open, tho
gates iwiing ajar, it 7:07 forty sailors
from the United States steamchlp Michigan
nuns up Franklin street, tbe flnt detach
ment ot thu cortege's escort. The blue
Jackein wheeled Into line directly opposite
the entrance ot city hall. Four minutes
later tbe four-horse hearse drew up and n
company or marines filed Into position.
Five of the cabinet officers arrived In two
carriages. The first carriage carried Sec
retary Long nnd Postmnster General Smith
Tho other held Attorney General Knox,
Secretary Wilson nnd Secretary Hitchcock,
United States Senator Joseph R. Hawley of
Connecticut was next to arrive.
Exactly nt the appointed hour, 7:13, tho
escort was In perfect rcadlnee?. In clarlou
tones Major Mann, commnndlng the escort,
delivered the order "Present arms." Noise
lessly and with the precision ot the well
drilled soldier the nrms leaped to position,
tho commanding officer turned about and,
facing the house of the dead, brought Ms
sword to "present." It was a" Impresstvo
moment. The rigid soldiers, and sailors
were awaiting the body of thaftr late com
rade. A minute of silence and, then,
emerging from the doors ot the city halt,
moved the eight body-bearers rour soldiers
and four sailors. On their shoulders rested
the casket enclosing the body ot the coun
try's beloved one. Away down tho line of
soldiery, from the Sixty-fifth regimental
band, came again the strains of "Nearer,
My Good, to Thee."
Starts on Sail Journey.
Behind the long ropes tho throng un
covered and with bowed heads waited nnd
watched in silence. Tenderly the precious
burden wns born slowly down the stone
steps, along the curved approach, to tho
hearse. Tho flag-draped casket was lifted
gently Into the hearse and the doors closed.
Through the windows of the hearse naught
but Amorlca's flag, surmounted by n single
sheaf ot wheut could bo seen. To tho
fornt came tho troops wheeling Into line
and moving down Franklin street. Once
rroro the strains of music were heard.
This time It was the mournful dlrgo of
Chopin's funeral march, accompanied by
tbo tolling ot tho church bells. Behind
tbe troops came the carriages ot the mem
bers ot tbe cabinet. Then eamo tho hearac
and following were comrades ot tho Grand
Army", with a company of local militia
bringing up the rear. Tho cortege passed
Inlo Church street, and, winding past St.
Paul's church Into Main street, the dead
president was carried through Buffalo's
streets. Down Main street the procession
moved between masses of people, all un
covered. Tbo high winds from off Lake
Erie snapped and whipped the bunting and
crepo with which every building was
draped. Above thn building American flags
and black streamers hung at half mast.
The line had begun Its march nt 7:60.
Hair an hour later, with meatured stens
and to tho strains or the constantly play
ing hand, the lino nt last turned Into Ex
change street, where the railroad station
Is located. Then tho Buffalo Joumev was
at and end. As the cortege passed Elllcott
square It was met by tho carriage bearing
the president ot the United States. Theodore
Roosovelt. By the president's order his
carrlago was stopped and with bared head
tho nation's new executive awaited tho
passing of his predecessor's funcrnl cortege.
Once moro the troops were drnwn up In
lino nnd camo to "present." The hearse
stopped n front of the baggage entrances
to the depot. As tho undertaker took hold
or tho door or the hearse to open It and
the bearers prepared to draw the coffin
out n hush tell on the multitude. Then
from the head of the column enmn the
mournful sound of the "long roll," As t
ceased there arose clear nnd sweet the
notos of the beautiful hyBn, "Nenrer. My
God, to Thee." Tho sololers raised tho
flag-covered rnsket on their shoulders and
moved toward the train, as the band took
up the air ot the grand old hymn, "O. God,
Our Help In Ages Past."
On tho curb Btood President Roosevelt
with Senator Hawley, The former had rn
' fused the advice of the police to move Into
the depot yard, and. with his hat In hand,
stood watching 'the body being removed,
Oencral Brooke and his staff tell in di
rectly behind the casket: then came the
president, Secretary Cortelyou nnd Senator
Hawley, and then, walking with his cane
for assistance, followed Senator Hanna. ac
companied by his son.
Mrs. MeKlnley and the other members
ot the ramlly had entered their car half an
hour before the body arrived.
Mrs. MeKlnley Greatly Affected.
The Journey down In the carriages,
through the windows of which sho could
see the emblems of mourning, affected Mrs.
MeKlnley seriously and when she stepped
from the carriage, assisted by Dr. Rlxey
and Abner MeKlnley. her limbs failed hor
and she would hnve rallon but tor the sud
port accordod her. She entered the sta
tion and was assisted Into tbe car in
which she and the dead president had made
tho trip into the city of his death.- On the
car her relatives took charge of her and
Dr. Rlxey gave her n tonic. Dr. Rlxev
thinks that she will bo ablo to go through
with the state ceremonial at Washington.
but the change of arrangements so thati
the body shall leave Washington Tuesday
night was made so as to avoid too.Rrcat a.
strain. "She will be hotter In Canton than
any place else," said Dr. Rlxey.
Funeral Train I.cnvea.
The funeral train bearing tho body of
the martyred president started on its Jour
ney to tbe national capital at 8:34 this
morning. Only the engine and the observa
tion car were shroudod In black. The other
cars wero unadorned.-
Behind the drawn blinds were Mrs. Me
Klnley, President Roosovelt, the cabinet'
and other dignitaries of the governmenl.
The casket of the preslderit, completely
covered with a beautiful silk flag, lay on
a raised bier In the observntlon car. Two
sheaves of wheat were crossed above the
breast. A white dovo with out-stretched
wings seemed to be rising from the head
ot the casket. It was part of an exquisite
floral piece, In which red and while buds
pictured tho American flag nnd the French
colors, n tribute from n Franco-American
sojlety. Standing at tho foot of tho casket
was a soldier of the United .States army,
uniformed nnd accoutred, with gun at
order aims.
At tho head a sailor of the navy stood

The astonishing statement that Asthma
can be cured, coming from so well known
authority ns Dr. Rudolph Schlffmann, will
be of Interest to asthma sufferers, The
experience or most Asthmatics has been
that little It any relief has been afforded
them by the methods heretofore employed,
and, In fact, the disease has up to now
been regarded as Incurable. This noted"
physician has, however, after a life-long
study of Asthma and kindred diseases, dis
covered a remedy which not only Instahlly
relieves the severest cases of Asthma, Hay
Fever and Bronchitis, but actually cured
thousands whose cases had boen pro
nounced Incurable. Ho complete Is Dr.
Schiffmann's confidence In his remedy that
he requests this paper to announcco that

liberal sample box of "Schiffmann's Asth

At East Aurora, the first town throtmlt
which tho train passed, the Inhabitants had
been augmented by thousands from the
surrounding country. The country schools
along tho way let out nnd the children the
president loved so well In life were there

slowed down at every station to allow tho
