The trreatibl 1 areasure to remove the President was on me for thirty daya, and It never left m when awake. It haunted me day, and niirbt M last aa opportunity came. I snot aim. As noon as I Bred tbe shot the Inspiration waa worked off, and I ft It Itnmenaely reilpved. I I would not do it again for a milium dollars. , Only a miracle saved me trout beinx sbt or hunt then and there. It was the most eiaane andfoolbardv act piv-aible. and no one but a , madman oould have done it. There are more than thtrty-elxbt cases in the Bible where the Deity has dlr ct d to kill for the good of tbe people that la. to save them from some far ! wreater trouble.

I wished him to oo-vw, : unwe uso iwh oi the Hepubtiean party to an end that the Nation may be happy and, wperras. In short, everybody, politically, la happy, save a few oranka, and they will probably lt happy aoon. I have no doubt as to my spiritual destiny.

going toward tbe front of the ear when the crush came, whL-h splintered the very compartment they hast Just abandoned, senator Webster Wagner bad passed tuetu on his way U tbe Idlewild. He waa not ten feet from the newspaper correspondent, and must have luat stepped upon the rear platform of the Empire when the Idlewild shot forward and telescoped the Empire. T!c first indicstlon that the Empire's passengers had of danger waa the single whistle ot the liK-oiiiotlveot the local train, tbe Tsrrytown exprew. The shock hurled them from their seats, and they were flung along the car floor. The swivel chairs, wrenched from their fastenings, were thrown after tbem and Uy piled on top of tbe atruggllng occupant. A shower of glass came down from over head, aad the roof of tbe Empire was crushed in upon them by the weight of the Idlewild' roof, which seemed to havebeen lifted bodily and shot forward upon tbat of the Empire. To add to the eonfaatoa the lights begsn to glimmer sad tbe darkneoa to deet-en. Nearly all the occupant found their way, out thrnmgh windows whose sashes bad been abatterefTby the shock. The ladies were buried In a heap of debrta, and were extracted without baring received any severe 1 t,i . Aaaamhivman htonk waa Dinned be

Nearly all of the Idlewild's pMaengen i were caught In tbe timber, and were unable to mov hand or foot. Thetr shrieks were appalling. Tbe names were gaining headway, adtbere wm neither hoee, norpsils, aer water at bead to quench thorn.
