that sends the leaden messenger with

untaught brain digs a hole in the ground
or contrives a few sticks covered with
hides, or grass or dirt, as an abode to
dwell in; the cultured brain hews the
wood, shapes the clay into bricks,
chisels the stone into blocks to rear the
dwellings for civilized people to dwell
in. The untaught brain is content with
its surroundings, lives but in the preS'

educated brain lives and plans, thinks,
aspires, labors and seeks to improve the
world it moves in. It dives down into
the earth, fathoms its depths and draws
up its treasures, learns the soil, and
where the forest or the prairie stood

gives each constellation and star and
planet its proper name and place;
catches the lightning, curbs it, trains it
to follow the- wire and bear his mes

learn her secrets, her powers, that they
may be utilized and applied to contriv

brain that thinks and shapes and com

life, becomes a creator as it were, the
other but obeys the directing power,
and labors obedient to it.
Thought governs. The man that
thinks is a monarch who rules and dic

No human being, if it were possible,
ought to pass through this life without

unofficial bulletin.
Executive Mansion. 10 :30 a. m.
Private Secretary Brown came from
the surgeons' room a few moments ago
and reported that the President was
then sleeping. No morphia has yet
been injected and there has been no re
turn of nausea since 3 a. m. Two
enemas have been successfully admin
istered since midnight. Secretary
Brown says the morning dressing
showed that the wound was in a per
fectly healthy condition.
Members 0?. the cabinet arrived at
various times during the early morn
ing. Attorney-General MacVeagh ac
companied Dr. Agnew, arriving at the
Mansion about half past seven. When
he returned from the private part of
the house he expressed the opinion that
while there was yet hope the patient
was certainly in a very critical condi
tion. There is a noticeable despondent
expression visible in those having ac
cess to the President's chamber, ana the
ereatest reticence is observed, especial
ly by the attending surgeons, who do
not enter the business portion of the
house unless it is absolutely necessary.
The despondent expression of Attorney-General
MacVeagh was especially
noticeable.
Shortly after 9 o'clock the cabinet
officers, with the exception of Secretary
Lincoln, who arrived at a later hour,
having just returned from New York,
left the White House for their respec
tive departments.
The day bids fair to be one of anxious
waiting.

Executive Mansion. Noon. Dr.
Bliss entered the Executive Mansion a
few moments ago to attend the noon
examination. Upon being approaehed
by a representative of the Associated
Press he said in a general way that he
considered the patient better than yes
terday, whereupon the following dia
logue ensued :
Reporter Well, doctor, what are the
real chances ?
Bliss The chances are indefinite. I
have not seen the patient for an hour
or so, but he was better than yesterday
when I last saw him, and of course we
take encouragement from that.
Reporter The midday examination
will be very important will it not?
Bliss Oh, yes. Tor instance, if the,
temperature should fall much below
the normal point the case would look
quite badly, particularly so if the pulse
should rise.
. Reporter Do you expect this?
Bliss Wo, we ao not. $uc,or course,
we cannot predict with any degree of
certainty what will be the result.
Reporter You do not' give the case
up then? j , i''
Bliss Emphatically. .No no, we do
not give it up.
Reporter Have hny intimations been
given the family to. prepare fer the
worst? . . .
Bliss No, 'sir; it hasn't come to
that.
The doctor then proceeded to the sick
chamber, appearing perfectly calm and
composed.

field is said to be as cheerful as circum
stances will allow, and that she also
entertains strong belief that her hus
band will recover. Dr. Aenew is quo
ted as having said this afternoon that
the patient was no weaker than he was
verv
This
statement, however, was not obtained
in a direct manner. Whatever may be
said, there is no denying that the case
is extremely critical at the present mo
ment, and unless a favorable change
occurs within a short time it may prove
fatal.
Dr. Bliss this afternoon said that he
felt confident that the wound was do
ing as well as it possibly could and
that it had healed to within about
three inches of the mouth of the last
incision. He feared no further trou
ble from the wound, and said the only
thing to be overcome now is irritabili
ty of the patient's stomach, which we
are doing our best to master. At the
conclusion of this talk the doctor said
that is all I have to say."
2:45 p. m. The Assistant Secretary
of State, Hitt, who has just come from
the private part of the house was asked
if be had any favorable news to com
municate, in response to'which he said,
MI am very sorry that I have not ; in
fact, I know nothing of the late condi
tion of the patient, although I have
been inside. The surgeons have told
me nothing important."
Mr. Hitt has just sent the following
cableerram :
Lowell, Minister to London :
The President's condition causes

departure she said in reply to the in

time was certainly very critical but
that she still had hopes of his recovery.
The trouble with the President's stom
