That was the only sound that broke the dead silence. Just heyond the entrance to the statiod President Roosevelt, with the members of the cabinet, had paused and had so sta- tioned themselves as to leave a broad space for the funeral cortege. They ranged them- selves on the sidewalk in double rows op- posite each other and stood with bared heads as the corpse was carried to the hearse, drawn up at the side of the mate. The hearse was an exquisitely carved affair and was drawn by six coal black horses. cach of which was led by a colored grovm i black livery Photographer Intrudes Just as the body was being placed in the Beirse an incident occurred that caused a murmur of disapprobation. A photographer frn A nearby window suddenly flashed a Mght for the purpose of obtaining a repro- @uction of the sceme. The flashlight and accompanying noise made people shudder. President Roosevelt seemed to be momen- tarily disconcorted. The hearse bearing the third martyred president quickly moved away and was fol- lowed at once by President Roosevelt and those accompanying him. In the president's carriage beside Mr. Roosevelt were Secre- taries Hay and 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 and Fair- tanks drove behind In other carriages. The citizens' committee from Buffalo. officers of the army and navy and friends followed. muelf, As the procession awept from the Sixth |' street station into Pennsylvania avenue a deeply impressive sight was presented. The historic thoroughfare hung in black. Emblems of the natlon's mournihg -were displayed on every buildipg. The Stars and Stripes, furled and knotted with creve. floated from hundreds of windows. Over all gleamed coldly scores of electric lights, defining each detall of the solemn scene. Washington Weep: Banked on each side of Sixth street to the executive mansion were teus of thousands of people. They were come to pay their tribute of respect to the memory of their president. With bared heads and without murmur of sound the people watched, with toa ained eyes the last homecoming uf President McKinley. There was no music. Amid the hush of the great crowds only the clatter of the ho hoofs, ringing sharply upon the pavements, was heard. A platoon of mounted police in command of Sergeant Matthews led the way. Next came a dele- tion of Grand Army of the Republic men from the Department of the Potomac, meme bers of the Union Veterans' union and the Spanish war veterans and Troop L of (he Eleventh cavalry from Fort Meyer, Va.

President Roosevelt, accompanied by the members of the cabinet, left the house most immediately and were driven to thelr homes. The casket had been placed lengthwise of the 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 sallor and a sol- dler, stood guard on each corner of the casket, while seated on either side we two members of the Grand Army of ‘the Republic and two members of the Loyal Leglon. These are relleved at intervals of two hours during the nf Before mid- night the household had retired to rest and the only lights to be seen were those in the room where his comra kept watch over their dead chief. An Interesting Incident of the parade was the singing of ‘‘Nearer, My God, to Th by a group of spectators just as the hearse containing the late president's remalns turned from the Sixth street depot into Pennsylvania avenue. The air was taken up by the throng and sung with feeling. Agaln as the hearse passed through the gateway of the White House the same strains were softly sung by a number of people across the avenu It w through a living lane of bare- headed people stretching from Buffalo up over the Alleghenies down into the broad valley of the Susquebanna and on to the marble city on the banks of the shining Potomac that the nation's martyred pr dent today made his last journey to the seat ot the government over which he pre- sided for four and one-half years. The whole country seemed to have drained ita population to the sides of the track over which the funeral train passed. The thin lines through- the mountains and the sparsely settled districts, thickened at the little hamlets, covered acres in towns, sud- denly grown to the proportions of respeot: ble citles and were congested into vast mul- titudes In the larger cities. Work wi suspended T fleld and mine and city. The schools were dismissed and everywhere ap- peared the trappings and tokens of woe. A million flags at half-mast dotted hill- side and valley and formed a thicket of color over the cities. And from-almost ev- ery banner streamed a bit of crepe. The stations were heavy with the black symbols of mourning. At all t r towns and cities after the train got into Pennsylvania, militiamen drawn up at present arms kept back the enormous erowds, Only Sounds of Lament The silence with which the countless throngs viewed the remains was oppressi and profound. Ounly the rumbling of the train's wheels, the sobs from men and women with t tained faces and the dole- ful tolling of the church bells broke on the ear. At several places the chimes played Cardinal Newman's grand hymm Taken altoget! the journey home was the most remarkable demonatration of universal personal sorrow since Lincoln was borne to his grave. Every one of those who came to pay their tribute to the dead had an opportunity teh & glimpse of the Nag-covered b elevated to view In the observation ca There was no other bit of color to cateh the eye on this train of death. The loco- motive was shrouded in black. The cur- tains of the car in which were the lonely, stricken widow, the relatives of the pry dent, cahinet and others were drawn.

The Digesting Element Lett Out, Bread dyepephla is common. It affects the bowels because white bread (s nearly all stareh, and starch is digested in the Intestines, not in the stomach proper. Up under the shell of ‘the wheat berry Nature has provided a ocurious deposit which s turned into diastase when it is subjected to the saliva and to the pan- creatle juices in the human Intestines This dlastase is absolutely necessary to digest starch and turn it into grape-sugar, which is the next form: but that part of the wheat berry makes dark flour, and the modern miller cannot readily sell dark flour, so nature's valuable digestor |s thrown out and the human system must handle the starch as best it can, without the help that Nature intended. Small wonder that appendicitis, periton- Itis, constipation, and all sorts of trouble exist, when we go 8o contrary to Nature's law.

BUFFALO, Sept. 16.—The silent form of Willlam McKinley was borne from this ¢ty In impressive state this morning and taken on Its last journey to the 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 the annals ot the clty and for twenty-four hours enjoyed himself thoroughly. The story of the foul- est of assassinations, the pathetic stride to recovery, as outwardly demonstrated, while death was slowly working on the vitals, the breathless hopes of a nation and loved ones, the terrible twenty-four hours of suspense when death made its final demand againat the human skill, all are matters of history mow. The brilliant statesman who but twenty-four hours before had out- lined his future policy to an assembly at the Pan-American, the learned guest of a great city, was taken out in silent splen- dor, his career ended as far as his dominant personality s concerned. Thousands upon thousands watched the impressive proces- sion this morning moving toward the depot. It was doubly impressive becatise of fts lack of gorgeousness and because of the fact that, closely behind the pall-covered corpse of the dead president, followed the succesgor to the title, Buffalo stirred early this morning, but early as its Inhabitants, curlous or sympa- thetic, awaiting a chance to get an ad- vantageous place from which to view the Aeparture of the dead presideni, police and soldiery had anticipated them Keep the Streeta Clear, At the Milburn mansion, where the family of the dead statesman slept, at the Wilcox mansion, where the new president reposed, and down town near the city hall, where the silent form of the former pres| dent lay, the guards wero formed early and the streets kept clear of wagons. It was not a particularly fine morning. The sun shone, but the wind blew in strong, fitful gusts across the city, tearing down the draping and raising clouds of dust, At the Milburn mansion, where Mrs. Mc- Kinley was, the servants were astir early and there was more activity about the house than has been seen since the shoot- ing. By 6:30 o'clock there were 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. McKinley was not awakened until after 7 o'clock, when Dr. Rixey went to the room with one of her attendants. She had not slept well despite the fact that she is almost thoroughly exhausted and that Dr. Rixey had given her a sleeping potion. The first thing she asked was a repetition of the query of the t two days: “When can I see the major?" Dr. Rixey told her that they were going to let her see him today and she then let her attendants dress her and at 7 was ready for her lixht breakfast, which she took in her room alone. At 7:30 the baggage was ready and two truckloads of it moved to the depot. One wagon was a hospital bed and it was thought that this was for the use of Mrs. McKinley, In view of the certainty of the fatigue of the journey and the possibility of a collapse. Colonel Bingham, who was in charge of the arrangements, sald at 7:45 that none of the party would go to the ~ity hall, where the body lay, but that ali would go directly to the train. This would be done on Mrs. McKinley's account. At 7:32 the Misses Duncan, nieces of the late president, were driven to the train so that they might arrange all comforts possible for the stricken widow. A few minutes later Senator Fairbanks, Comptroller of the Currency Dawes and Elmer Dover, secretary to Senator Hanna, emerged from the 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. McKinley Starts. At T7:45 several figures stepped sllently out upon the porch and walked down toward the carriages. Mrs. Willlam McKinley, robed in garbs of mourning and supported by Abmer McKinley on one side and'Dr. Rixey on the other, was the central figur To the surprise of all she walked briskly, with ber head quite erect, her face hidden behind her long black vell. She got into the carriage with her favorite niece, Miss Barber, Abner McKinley and Dr. Rixey and they were driven at once to the depot. So far as could be seen she sat erect and um supported in the carriage. The family of Abner McKinley, other rela- tives of the dead president and Secretary Cortelyou followed In other carriages, and the Milburn house, famous now because of 1ts conuection with a great national tragedy, went back into the possession of its- owner, who had so kindly given it up to the use of the president and his family. The street corners near the house, which for a week had been crowded with news- paper men, telegraphic booths and waiting resumed their wonted appear- the military guard was withdrawn, the police resumed their normal ocoupation and the exciting incldents that have marked the locality became a memory. President Roosevelt did not arise until 7 o'clock. He dressed quickly apd at 7:20 was ready for breakfast. He breakfasted with the family of his hest, Ansley Wilcox. Just after 8 o'clock had struck, together with Mr. Wilcox and his secretary, Willlam Loeb, jr., he got into the carriage and drove to the train, A few mounted police followed the carriage and three or four detectives and secret service men were near by. Otherwise there was nothing to distinguish the president from any other cltizen, The slow and stately progress of the president’s body from the city hall to the rallroad station afforded the pecpie of Buf- falo an opportunity to do hehor o the la- mented executiye Pro n St k the wity hall was as quiet the dead within ite wal Statue-like the guard of homor at the catafalque maintained its position through- out the long hours of the night.

The first carriage earried Sec. retary Long and Postmaster General Smith The other held Attorney General Knox, Secretary Wilson and Secretary Hitchoock. United States Senator Joseph R. Hawley of Connecticut was next to arrive Exactly at the appointed hour, 7:45, the escort was in perfect readiness, In clariou tones Major Mann, commandiag the escort, dellvered the order “'Present arms.” Noise- lessly and with the precision of the well drilled soldier the arms leaped to position, the commanding officer turned about and, facing the house of the dead, brought his sword to “present.” It was an impressive moment. The rigid soldiers_and sallors were awalting the body of thMt late com- rade. A minute of silence ang then, emerging from the doors of the city hall, moved the eight body-bearers--four soldiers and four sallors. On thelr shoulders rested the casket enclosing the body of the coun- try's beloved one. Away down the line of soldiery, from the Sixty-Afth regimental band, came again the strains of “Nearer, My Good, to Thee." Starts on Sad Journey, Behind the long ropes the throng un- covered and with bowed heads walted and watched in silence. Tenderly the preclous burden was born slowly down the stone steps, along the curved approach, to the hearse. The flag-draped casket was lifted gently into the hearse and the doors closed. Through the windows of the hearse naught but America’s flag, surmounted by a single sheaf of wheat could be seen. To the forat came the troops wheeling into line and moving down Franklin street. Once more the strains of music were heard This thme it was the mournful dirge of Chopin’s funeral march, accompanied \Ly the tolling of the church bells. Behind the troops came the carriages of the mem- bers of the cabinet. Then came the hearse and following were comrades of the Grand Army, with a company of local militia bringing up the rear. The cortege passed Into Chuvch street, and, winding past 8t Paul's church into Main street. the dead president was carried through Buffalo’s streets. Down Main street the procesaion moved botween masses of people, all un- covered. The high winds from off Lake Erie snapped and whipped the bunting and crepe with which every bSuilding was draped. Above the bullding American flags and black streamers hung at half mast. The line had begun (s march at 7:50. Half an hour later, with measured steps and to the strains of the ccastantly play- ing band, the line at last turned into Ex- change street, where the rallroad station is located. Then the Buffulo journev was at and end. As the cortege passed Eilicott square it was met by the carriage bearing the president of the United States, Theodore Roosevelt. By the president’s order his carriage was stopped and with bared head the nation's new executive awaited the passing of his predecessor's funeral cortege, Once more the troops were drawn up in line and came to “present.”” The hearse stopped in front of the baggage entrances to the depot. As the undertaker took hold of the door of the hearse to open it and the bearers prepared to draw the coffin out a hush fell on the multitude. Then from the head of the column came the mourntul sound of the “long roll.” As it ceased there arose clear and sweet the notes of the beautiful hy'gn, “Nearer, My God, to Thee.” The solalers raised the flag-covered casket on their shoulders and moved toward the train, as the band took up the air of the grand old hymn, "0, God, Our Help in Ages Past.” On the curb stood President Roosevelt with Senator Hawley, The former had re- fused the advice of the police to move Into the depot yard, and, with his hat in hand. stood watching ‘the body being removad. General Brooke and his staff fell in di- rectly behind the casket: then came the president, Secretary Cortelyou and Senator Hawley, and then, walking with his eane for aesistance, followed Senator Hanna, ac- companied by his son. Mrs. McKinley and the other members hour before the body arrived. Mrs, McKinley Greatly Affected. The journey down in the carriages, through the windows of which she could see the emblems of mourning, affected Mrs. McKinley seriously and when she stepped from the carriage, assisted by Dr. Rixev and Abner McKinley, her limbs failed her and she would have fallen but for the sup- port accorded her. She entered the sta- tion and was assisted Into the car in which she and the dead president had made the trip into the city of his death. On the car her relatives took charge of her and Dr. Rixey gave her a tonic. Dr. Rixev thinks that she will be able to go through With the state ceremonial at Washington, but the change of arrangements so that the body shall leave Washington Tuesday night was made so0 as to avold too great a strain. “‘SBhe will be better in Oanton than any place els id Dr. Rixey, Funeral Train Leaves. The funeral traln bearing the body of the martyred president started on its jour- Dey to the natlonal capital at 8:34 this morning. Only the engine and the observa. tlon car were shrouded in black. The other cars were unadorned. Behind the drawn blinds were Mrs. Me- Kialey, President Roosevelt, the inet and other dignitaries of the government. The casket of the president, completely covered with a beautiful silk flag, lay on a ralsed bier in the observation car. Two sheaves of wheat were crossed above the bre A whitc dove with out-stretched wings seemed to be rising from the head of the casket.

A Noted Physician Will ‘Fhis to Sufferers in Om Thursday. The astonishing statement that Asthma can be cured, coming from so well known authority as Dr. Rudolph Schiffmann, will be of interest to asthma sufferers. The experience of most Asthmatics has been that little if any relief has been afforded them by the methods heretofore employed, and, in fact, the dlsease 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 1ot only instantly relleves the severest cases of Asthma, Hay Fever and Bronchitls, but actually curel thousands whose cases had been pro- nounced Incurable. 8o complete Is Dr. Schiffmann’s confidence in his remedy that he requests this paper to announcce that All day Thursday, Sept. 19th, he offers a Iiberal sample box of “Schiffmann's Asth- ma Cure' free of cha applying at Kuhn & and Douglas streets.
