Mrs. McKInley last saw her husband between 11 and 1- o'clock. At that time she sat by the bedside, holding his hand. The members of the Cabi-1 net were admitted to the sick room Singly at that time, t President McKlnley's relatives and the members oi'-i.is otlielal family who .wore at the S/'Hlmrn house, except Secretary Wilson, who did not avail himself of the opportunity, and some of his personal and political fricml.s took leave of him.

Then with mournful trend and bowed heads they catne out In the darkness and went away. There was not one among them with dry eyes, and some moaned in an agony of grief. The announcement of the news to those waiting below was postponed until the members of the family had withdrawn. Through Secretary Coptelyou the waiting newspaper men received the notification. There was the keenest excitement on the broad avenue, hut there was no semblance of disorder. The military guard was augmented immediately upon the announcement. The waiting crowds melted away rapidly, giving expression in unmistakable terms to the grout sorrow they felt. The rage of the people of Buffalo against the President's assassin when they learned that the President was dying was boundless. Thousands surrounded the Jail, and the entire police force of the city and two regiments of militia were utilized to insure his protection. Colonel W. C. Brown described the last scene as follows: "Dr. Itixcy held the President's ? riwi. I lie paiH'Ut IliUJ llOt'Il UUCOI1seious for about two hours. Wo watched, hardly breathing. At. exactly o'clock Dr. ltlxey laid tho President's hand by his side and on id simply: 'The President Is dead.' What occurred after 1 do not. know.

In all that time, although sufferine; Intensely, he had manifested a magnificat courage. His soul was sustained through the dark hours by the suhlimcst Ohrlstain serenity. From the time when he was pierced by the assassin's bullet, when he said pityingly. referring to the assassin, "Let no one harm him." up to his lust night, when lie voiced his resignation to the inevitable to bis devoted wife, every hour of suffering had been characterized by lofty Christian fortitude. The sense of loss to the people of Buffalo and to the strangers within Iter gates is almost overpowering. Tho President runic to this elty to lend a neighborly hand in making tho exposition a success. The assassin's bullet which struck him down in the Temple of Music was a blow felt throughout .'he length and breadth of the land* but rt wnp perhaps more Intensely felt by the people here. Bvory bulletin from the sickroom has been regarded almost as a personal message. Tho scenes at the intersection of tho streets, beyond which the unprivileged who wanted to get near the Milburn house could not pass, constituted In them solves a wonderful tribute to mo siricKi'ii i'resident. testifying to the supreme affection with which ho was regarded.

But with the cold dampening of the President's brow the surgeons thought of another than their patient. Cabinet officers should know and statesmen ought to know, i but the wife must know, of the inevitable. It fell to the lot of Dr. llixey to tell the whole truth, lie went to her room and broke It as gently as death ! possibly can be spoken of. She did not falter, for away down in her woman's heart she had perhaps formed by intuition, guided by awful fear for a. loved one, what the surgeons learned long after. ~May I see him?" she said simply, and a nod was the silent response. Quietly, as If making her customary rail at the bedside, she entered the! room where there lay stretched all that she loved In life, lie smiled up at hor as he always did. and she brnvc-> ly smiled back. Then she stooped sintl whispered a few words into his ear. nn<l he smiled again and answered; softly. Then she w^t away, turning at the door to smile again at her husband. Then she went to her room alone. ! There was 110 drive for her on the last day her husband was alive, it being thought best that she should not leave the house.

"Immediately," and ho started on the long walk of ton miles to the upi>er Tahawus Club house, ten miles from! the top of Mount Marry; "immediately," and It meant a drive of ten miles from there to the lower club house, and of thirty-five miles from there to North ('reek, where a special train awaited him. Then came the long, roundabout run to Buffalo. When news reached North Creole that Boose volt's presence was demanded In Buffalo because of the serious turn that had been taken In the condition of the President, word Immediately was sent to the lower club house, and thence to the upper, ten miles further lti the mountains. Every pulde available, and every club member at once started out in a search thai seemed hopeless, so prent was the extent of territory to be covered. All were armed with puns and pistols, which they fired off at Intervals lo attract attention. Thus, with the cracklnp of pistols and the heavier reports of shotpuns and the halloa lap of "Roosevelt! Roosevelt! Roosevelt!" there he pan a remarkable hunt for the Vice President to inform him that the head of the Nation was dyinp. One by one the fired searchers returned. almost voiceless from incessant calling and with ammunition exhausted.

Then, as he neared the top. there came from afar a faint "Halloa!" i I Then his shots met answering firing and the lost was found, and the fateful message delivered to a whitelipped hunter. Then, forgetting all fatigue, Roosevelt and the guides started on a swinging walk to the upper club house, ten miles away, j The first message Roosevelt, received gave no details, except that he was .wanted. When lie reached the upper blub house, stnln?*d and worn, with even the hardy guides lagging far behind, messages were there awaiting him. and lmiurmliig him that McKinley was dying.

Dr. Rixoy, knowing Senator llanua*s longing to see the President alive, told the four men that they might go Into his bedroom for a few minutes. Senator llanna no sooner looked at the pain marked face of his friend than he hurst into tears, and would have fallen to the lloor hut for Secretary Wilson and Colonel Ilerriek. lie was led from the roojn. soothed and soon regained control of himself. Then he said: "I'm all right now. I'm all right again. 1 must go In and see him again." Ills rCQUeSt for another took wna granted. Ho stood a few foot from rlio bedside and looked again at the unconscious President. Suddenly Senate ttpnon dropped in ids knees at the bedside, and pcoriug iuio the President's unresponsive face, said in tones flint never will be forgotten by those within earshot: "Mr. President. Mr. President, ?..n't you see me? Don't you know me?" There was no response and the stillness became painful as Senator llunna exclaimed: "William. William, speak to ine." The President seemed at iVrst to remember the familiar voire, hut no permanent look of recognition eatne into Ills eyes. Colonel Ilorrlck went to Senator Tlanua. raised hiin from the floor and supported him as he led hint away.

V.?A surgeon who attended 1'resident McKinley was told that many persons were criticizing the surgeons for having permitted the President to cat toast, because there was a general belief, among laymen at any rate, that toast was a substance that would i>e gritty and tend vo Irritate the weakened stomach. "I know we would lie criticized, and nmeri.v, wuiwvtr u I'll.'llip' It)!' I IK* worse appeared in the President's rnn?lition. no matter what we dl?l," lie said. "People cannot, lie altogether reasonable at sueli a time and in such matter as this. and we are too human ourselves to oxjiect them to lie. Hut about the toast." The physician held out his index tinner and the one next to it and crossed them Just below the nail of the Index linger. ; "There," he said, "that Is as large as the piece of toast tlie President had and it was very thin, much thinner by half than are my lingers. lie merely nibbled at. the toast. lie had hardly u mouthful of it. not a mouthful of not hulf a bite altogether. It was given him not so much as food but because there seemed to be no better way of removing the heavy coating on his tongue and the inside of his mouth. The coating was very dlsa greenblo to lilui anil was endangering his comfort." The surgeon ndded that of all of tlio troubles of the surgeons of the last twenty-four hours, none was more distressing to them than the way tlx* President's heart aeted. Some people have said that the President lind a "tobacco heart." This description l:as not satisfied the physicians.

Wishing to give their large family of children heller educational facilities, the father apd mother decided to move to Poland, which boasted of an academy. During this period at l'olaml young MeKinlev studied at the academy. led the village debating society, often relieved the postmaster, tried ills ability as a teacher, and was marked as the most promising hoy of the community.

He was almost as popular in the otlier counties of the district, and got ids nomination on the first ballot. Congressman MeKinley held his place in the National Legislature for fourteen years.
