He bualed himself with letters and telegrams, which required Immediate an swer. The members of the cabinet cared for the pressing business requiring their at tention. After leaving Olcan the train descended Into the valley of th Susquehanna. tlenovo was reached at 1:05 p. m. The train crew ond engines were changed. At rtenovo ropes had been stretched to keep back the crowds which surged through the neighboring streets. A big flag with McKlnley'x picture framed In crepe was strung from corner to corner In tho station 'I In front of It were hundreds of children, their hats In their hands and their little faces grave. This was the terminus of one of tho railroad divisions, and the 'train hands were all lined up with bared heads.

At Wllllamsport. which was reached at 2 3(, there was a remarkable demonstra tion, the feature of which was the pre sentation of ac-Immense floral offering by 6.C00 school children of tho city. It was received by Colonel T. 0. Bingham, the president's aide. He stood on the platform of the observation car, In which the casket lay exposed to view, and the sccno was profoundly Impressive.

The jiresencn of flvo veterans of the Grand Army cf tho Republic on the funeral train developd an Interesting Incident showing tht considerate atttltude of Presi dent Roosevelt toward the old Boldlcrs. The thirty-fifth national encampment of the Orand Army of the Republic at Cleveland, O., adjoumed at the Friday morning ses sion September 13, after receipt of the dis patch shov-lug the condition of the presi dent at RuffalOj placing .all unfinished busi ness In the hands 'of the council of admin istration, consisting of one comrado from each of the forty-flvc departments, with full power to act. At' the meeting of the council, whloh remained In session until after midnight Friday, a Commltteo was di rected to be appointed by Commander-in-Chief Torrence In event of the president's death, to attend the funeral of their dead comrade at Canton. The commander-in-chief, unable to be present at Buffalo to march with the Grand Army of vthe Repub lic comrades of the Department of New York, In the place assigned them Immedi ately In tho rear of the hearse, from the Mllburn houbo to tho city hall, and from thence, to the funeral train on Monday morning, was represented by his adjutant general aud by other comrades of the De partmcnt of Now York. At tho meeting held at Buffalo Sunday It was agreed to further offer the services of a committee of flvo to act as part of the escort to the body on the funeral train to Wrahlngton. llouarvdt Ileeelrea Them Well. A committee called on President Roose velt at the Wilcox mansion Sunday evening to make this tender and request an ac ceptance, so that the representatives of tho Orand Army of the Republic might be as signed to this duty. The president'! greet ing to the Orand Army .committee, was most gracious. He said; "I am pleased, very much pleased, to re ceive you. and while, for obvious reasons, t cannot make an assignment such as you propose I will write a note to Secretary Cortelyou with the hope that be will be sble to do so. I know It Is what the dead president would have desired and It Is what I desire." The note written by the president was banded to Secretary Cortelyou, who said: "In making arrangement for the funeral, I thought of the Grand Army, In tho mul titude of my duties I necessarily had to re fer many of my duties and that of the rand Army of the Republic escort was lent to Colonel Dlngham. Please see him ind tell him I sent you to him." Colonel Dlngham made the necessary ar rangements, and the assignment of a com mittee of five members to accompany the train as follows: Ft M. Sterrett, adjutant general: Charles Orr, department com mander. New York Grand Army of the Re public, W. F. Dllllng, commander post No, 8, Alfred Lytic, past senior vice com aisndt r-ln-chlef, and Joseph V. Kay, past Jepartment commander New York Grand . Army of the Republic.

Before the, train ran through the st four 'the train reached here the crush at the people along the w The 'station was so great that the military was ,0 lhen, 1 called by the railroad authorities to drive the crowd back. It Is estimated that there were 30,000 persons crowded about the sta tion to see the train, Governor and Mrs. Stone were unable to get near the train. The local Grand Army of the Republic posts also turned out to do honor to the memory of the dead president. Business throughout the city was very generally suspended from 4:30 until C o'clock anil the courthouse bell nnd numerous other hells tolled. All freight and passenger trade on the Pennsylvania railroad between Rockvllle and Harrlsburg was suspended at 4:25 and resumed after the funeral train left the Union station. A Baltimore crew took charge of the train here and will not be relieved until It reaches' Daltlmore. The pilot engine and the locomotive were draped In mourning. TRAIN REACHES BALTIMORE flmall Town nnd Ihe City Itself Con tinue the Voleelean Omtlnn (a .Silent .Martyr. DALTIMORE. Sept. 15. After leaving Wllllamsport the train ran through stretches of farming country dotted here and there with small manufacturing towns. At Milton all business was suspended and the town turned out enmasse at the station and lined the railroad track. At Sunbury the, shops closed down for a time and the brawny workmen lined up In their overalls, with serious faces and hats In hand. All ages and conditions of the people joined In the tribute, the children with tiny flags topped with knots of black, cripples on crutches and babes held above the crowd for a sight they might never see again. It had been the Intention to run through Sunbury without a stop, but such were tho Importunities of the people, that the train pulled up for a moment between solid lines of people. Along tho niTer. In the fifty miles from Sunbury to Har rlsburg the route skirted the placid Sus quehanna and the vistas of green-clad slope and peak gave way to broad sweeps of rich farming country. The rlvermen were aware of the coming of the train. A pon derous dredge hailed In Its operations and the men lined tho deck of the unwieldy craft. At a little town across the river the populace had emptied upon the wharves and could be scen"stralnlng for a view -of the speeding train. Further on a homely farm house had Its little porch looped with black aud underneath were gathered the old and young of the household with sor rowing faces. At.ono crossroads hundreds of vehicles were drawn up with country people' stand ing In them and evidently some nearby town had thus sought a point of vantage near the track. Approaching Harrlsburg, factory hands again lined the track. The roof tops of buildings were alive with people. Flags were half-masted and emblems of mourning were at every hand. Hundreds of men and women crowded the tops of freight cars. Within the Station. with his sister, each bearing great clusters of roses and palms, as a tribute of the city to be placed on the bier of the deaJ president. As the flowers were passed within the train the notes of "Nearer, 'My God, to Thee" again arose. A moment later the train was oft for the final desti nation. At Baltimore the entire make-up of the train was reversed, the catafalque car now being at the front, while that of Mrs. Mc Klnley and the relatives, President Roose velt and tbe-cablnet and public officials followed In the order named. It was shortly before S:.30 o'clock that the distant lights of the national capltol came Into view. Now tho preparations for dis embarking the casket began. The stalwart soldiers and sailors who were to bear It from the car were sUmoned to their posts. suburbs the ay gradually to thousands. At 8:40 p. m. the train swept Into the sta tion, around which a great concourse was waiting to receive the dead.

The heathen who Im molates himself upon the attar, does to from a sense of Justice to his God. The Judge who denies the people the right to save their crops during a period of drouth, by diverting the water, exercises such de nial only from a strict seme of duty. Those persons who would say that In doing this the Judge Is equally as devoted to an Im practicable Idea as the heathen, would probably not be very far wrong. Devotion to a caked and unprofitable Idea Is not alone peculiar to the heathen, or religious enthusiasts. The man who would destroy himself tor the maintenance of one worth less Idea would qulto as readily do so for a second worthless Ideas lt he believed tho second Idea was entitled to the same rever ence and respect as the first.

The passage be tween this city (midway between Williams port and Harrlsburg) of the special train bearing tho remains of Pretldent McKlnley was Indeed a sorrowful sight. Third street, through which the Pennsylvania railroad runs, was literally covered with flag! and bunting, all heavily draped with crepe, all buklness was suspended and the entire tnpu!ation gathered on cither side of the itreet. No demonstration was made, a dead Within the station the people were banked I In thousands surging through all the ap proaching ttreets as far as the eye could reach. From a huge viaduct spanning the track countless faces peered down Into the car windows. The tolling of the church bells could be heard, and as the train en tered the station the shrill notes of a bugle sLunded taps. Despite the vigilance of the guards, women pushed through to the train nnd pleaded at the 'windows for any trifle the cars might yield as a memento of this eventful trip. , j Just as the train stopped a great choir, ranged tier on tier, on the station steps be gan "Nearer, My God, to Thee." and then as the train pulled out the' strains turned to "My Country, 'Tis of Theo." Printed slips were handed to the car windows glv Ing the lines of the two, beautiful hymns deeply bordered In black. Croaslnar the Bridge. remarkable spectacle was presented as the train moved across the long bridge spanning the Susquehanna from Harrlsburg. On either side of the stream up and down for miles the banks teemed with legions of people. From the brink of the stream they were In solid masses to the trees tar In the background. On the bridge Itself, ur chins had clambored Into the tangle of steel at the side of the riff. On the sur face of tho river. In a flotilla of rowboats and yachts, hundreds more looked .up at tho train of death. On the far, side of the brldgo another dense crowd lined the tracks and with bared, heads peered. Into. the ca afalque tar. Again at York the' irain moved for halt a mile between .avenues of solid humanity and windows and housetops were alive with people. By this time the sun was getting low and In the throngs were hundreds of workmen with their din ner palls. Everywhere the same scenes of sorrow and reverence that bad gone be fore were re-enacted. Cnittluura Into the 5ls(ht. Night came on as the train sped from York to Baltimore without a stop and In the darkness only the flying llgh'ts along the way, and the tolling at the. stntions be- spoke that the manifestations of sorrow were still going on. As the train drew Into Baltimore black masses of people could be seen ranged upon the huge viaducts which span the line of the road and at every street crossing a living tide surged up to the train. Nearlng the station the locomotive lightly plowed Its way among flowers, for great masses of blossoms had been strewn along the pathway of the train. Insldo the station the Iron railing held back a surging multitude, while within the rail the entire force of the city postofflce was drawn up on one side of tho tracks with banners wound with crepe and the force of the customs house on the other side. In front of the crowd stood Mayor Hayes, Memorlnl nt Onl. ORD, Neb., Sept. 16. (Special.)

Because the nature of the disease Is not rccognlicd. One doctor treats her for Inflammation, anothor treats her for congestion, another treats her fcr neuralgia and still another for nervousness, and so the list goes on. None of them are treating her for the correct ailment. Her trouble nine times out of ten Is catarrh of the pelvic organs. Mrs. Danley had catarrh of the kidneys.

For more than thirty-four years the people of Nebraska have proceeded on this basis, ever since 1877. twenty-four years, they have voted bonds and surveyed canals and condemned right of way and con structed ditches and applied tho water to Irrigation and domestic use and all upon the theory that what they did was not wrongfully dene but rightfully done. They simply took a practical, business sense view nf the matter and It remained for the Judges to raise doubts and create uncertainties." On the value of Irrigation the brief con tinues: "That agriculture In Nebraska may be benefited by Irrigation goes without say ing. That In the western half of the state there can be no successful agriculture with out Irrigation, is undeniable. That the Judges cf the courts of this state desire the welfare of the people of the state, can not be contradicted. We have had a season of drouth, and thousands of millions of gallons of water have gone out of Nebraska In natural channels, and down to the sea, when, If this water had been applied to Irrigating perishing crops, the result would havo been a bounttful supply of the neces saries of life and comfort and peace and plenty, Instead of anxiety, and danger and scarcity. Only the fact that the diversion of water from the running streams of the state Is wrongful, as against the owner of the banks of the stream can be the reason that the courts of the state deny to tho people the right to divert the water for At the State university preparations are being mado for the registration of students, which will begin tomorrow.
