When she entered the presidents room Mrs. MaeVeagh informed her that he had continued to improve and everything was favorable. Mrs. Garfield replied, "I told you from the first that he was

NOT OOIMU TO DIE"

Very little is being done in any of the government departments. They are all open, but the officials and clerks spend most of the time in hunting the latest information from the President. Every person coming from the President's room now brings news that he is doing well and this has, to a considerable extent relieved the strain of anxiety which the people here have been under since Saturday. There is a general feeling of relief visible.

HIGH HOPES OK COL. ROCKWELL.

Col. Rockwell, who spent last night with the Presidont, went home this morning to get some rest. Ashe passed out oCjihe White House his face showed that hope was high in his breast. He said "Thank God I believe

THE WORST IS OVER

I now beleave theTresident will live. 1 was with him all night and the ohange for the better is most decided and inspires his friends with hope almost amounting to enthusiasm."

Col. Corbin, who has been a clcse watcher at the bedside said at noon: "I beliefe that the President will live everything looks bright now and we hope that there may not be any change lor the worse."

As bulletins are not being issued as freely as formerly, the reporters have to get tbe opinions' of the doctor and of the visitors to the President's room. All these agreed at noon that the President had'steadily held hi* own all day. The doctors thinkthere has been no change for the better this morning, but they are well satisfied to keep the president from retrogradiag any. The President dozes frequently and suffers seme pain, but remains cheerful. ANOTHER WOULD-BE A8SASSIH ARRESTED.

WASHINGTON,

July

5.—A

man was ar

rested this morning on Pennsylvania Avenue, who said be came to Washington to kill Blaine. 'He was armed with a revolver. His actions were those of a crazy man. When taken to the police statiofr lie was unatile'to give his name.

VICE FRESIDEHT ARTHUR.

A Washington special says Vice President Arthur suffers Much grief and is in a state of great.anxiety to learn how the case is going on. He talks very little and receives hardly any visitors. In conversation wilh a friend last night he shed tears In relating his interview with Mrs. Garfield and said that this event, if it should terminate fatally, would be the greatest calamity that could have happened to the nation. It is enough, he said, to convince every man of the folly of party strife and this would probably be found ihe moral it would convey, whatever might be the result of the President's wounds and in whatever hands the administration of the government might be hereafter. The cabinet is a unit in scouting the idea of any political significance being attached to Guiteau's crime.

THE LATEST STILL BETTER. EXECUTIVE MANSION, 4:15 p. M.—The President's pulse has fallen to 104 and he is resting quietly.

FOREIGN PRESS COMMENTS.

LONDON, July 0—A despatch from Berlin says The press has devoted as much attention to the attempt on President Garfield's life as it did to the murder of the Czar. Germans have had too much painlul experience of the kind not to feel a deep sympathy with an almost semi-filial nation. Telegrams of sympathy and inquiry continue to pour in on the United States Minister White and the whole time of the legation is occupicd in replying to them, and seeing anxious visitors. In American Colony, which never fails to celcbrate Independence day, there has been nothing to remind on^ of a festival except the stars and stripes floating languidly dver the legation and consulate, and it is universally hoped that the banner will not have to be run up at half mast. The latest telegrams from Washington arc eagerly awaited and all comments of the press may be reduced to detestation of the crime and of the culpable system which produced it. ThejG^rma/itVi (clerical) fears that if Garfield again returns to power the Republic will nave to experience bitter conflicts before the system of reform which Garfield had so courageous ly begun is effectively carried out. The Soursen Courier denounces the disgraceful place hunting which forms a cancer in the exitence or the great Republic.

A PHYSICIAN'S OPINION.

NEW YORK, July 6th—A physician in a communication tothe Tribune concerning the nature of the Piesident's wounds says: 4It is the opinion of a large number of intelligefit medical men of this city that neither the liver or any other vital part has been wounded. This is borne out by tie fact, that beyond the first shock then has been no material changes either in temperature, pulse or respiration. The changes that might ef-

W&ifie former are the' moat :lqportant indications either of shock or peritonitis hut body beat has not risen above 101 dev grses. The most probable explanation of Picsident Garfield's wound is that the bullet took an upward and inward course and lodged in the dense tissue about the spinal column. This injury would account for the pain in the legs and feet, and it would be difficult to account for the pain in any other way. No man injured in the manner claimed by medical witnesses would live so long without oc of really unfavorable symptoms.

ENGLISH ANXIETY.

LONDON, July 9.—Tbe anxiety concerning President Garfield continues unabated. It is.the unanimous testimony of Americans that the personal feeling among English people aroused by the shooting oi tbe President is greater than that evoked by any foreign ev^nt of recent years.

EXECUTIVE MANSION, 19:80 A. M. The condition of the Presidenttsince the date of the last official bulletin, 8:30 A. M. has further improved. His pulse is now 96 temperature normal.

CHEERFUL AND REFRESHED. NEW YORK, July 6.—Washington special: When Rockwell entered the President's room this morning he found every body wearing a cheerful look. "How do you feci this morning?" said he to the "President, and in response received the following gratifying answer: "Very much refreshed, slept well all night. I feel better than at any time since Saturday morning."

His voice is strong and his manner very cheerful. Mrs. Dr. Susan Edson, who attends Mrs Garfield, reports her as cheerful and gaining strength. The recovery of the President, which is now possible, it is already remarked by his friends, will give LIS administration a hold on the people ot all sections which will be simply invincible. It is suggested this morning that in case he recover there should be a

NATIONAL CELEBRATION,

The President passed a very comfortable night and for the first time since he was wounded his pulse this morning is below 100. His physicians feel fresh encouragement but are intensely anxious for tke trying days yet to come. (Signed) BLAINE,

COOLING TIN ROOM.

Experiments are mow being made under the supervision of the physicians with different sorts of refrigerating apparatus in order to relieve the President if possible from the unfavorable influence of the great heat by artificially cooling the atmosphere of his room.

EXECUTIVE MANSION, 12:53 p. M.—A slight rise in the pulse of the President since the official bulletin of 8:30 A. M. was caused by the changing of the bed and the movement of the patient's body which it neceMitated. His symptoms are still regarded as very favorable.

DR. AGNEW'S VIEWS.

PHILADELPHIA, July]6.—Dr. D. Haynes Agnew said to-day that the President's chances of recovery have greatly Improved since yesterday. The principal danger yet to be apprehended is from peritonitis.

EXECUTIVE MANSION.—M. Judd, one of the President's private secretaries, soon after the October election and while the President was at Mentor, received from the then unknown Charles Guiteau the following letter, dated New York city:

LOCAL PHYSICIANS.

Divine Opinions as to the Loeation of the Billet

Vow Threatening the Life of President Garfield

GAZBITE reporters endeavored to learn tbe opinions of the local medical profession as to the place where the assassin's bullet is now lodged and the probabili* ties of recovery. Many that were called on were out of their offices. Briefly stated the following is the result of tbe interviews:

DR. J. E. LINK

Dr. Link whose skill as a surgeon is so well known, tested as it has been, not in a single but in many successful operaiions, was sought at his office on Ohio street. "What do you think of the situation Doctor "I agree with Dr. Frank Hamilton, of New York that the crisis will be over and the danger passed when President Garfielo is entirely well." "Where do you tbink tbe ball now is?"

In the spinal cord. It is impossible to tell exactly because the eminent surgeons charge have seen fit to give no accurate scientific description of the point of entrance of the ball. They sav it broke the tenth rib. But where That rib is several -inches long. Tbe profession would line to know the exact place. I am personally acquainted with Dr. Hamilton who has been in attendance on Genl. Garfield. I telegraphed him for accurate information if it bad not been considered best not to give it. This I think is highly probable and under the circumstances perhaps it is proper." "How do you account 'for the vomiting, nausea and peritonitis, if tbe ball did not strike the abdomen

I don't believe there is any real peritonitis. Timers is no inflammation ex* cept in the immediate vicinity of the point of entrance. The liver might be temporarily affected from the severe shock." "What are your reasons for thinking that the ball is in4he spinal chord f'

Because the ball br&e the tenth rib in entering, and bent it forward. When the rib sprang back it gave the appearance of the ball tiavtng entered the abdominal cavity when in fact, is passed the other way to the spinal eord, where it probably lies partially imbedded. This will account for the tingling in Mr. Garfield's foot. The theory that a nerve was struck caneot be true, as there are no nerves leading to the foot in that vicinity—-they are lower down, proceeding from the pelvis." "What will be the effect of sueh a wound "I think he will get well." "Did you ever have any similar cases of injuries to the spine "Yes. Capt. Young, of Illinois, a patient of mine, carried a bullet in his spine for years and died of consumption. That man Forgay stabbed Won. Landrum with a file in the back. He lived several years, !ut it ruined his vitality and broke down his ambition. Mr. Garfield has an abundance of physical and mental force and he wilt probably get all right."

DR. SWAFFORD

was asked his opinion of the President's wound. He said he thought it very probable that the ball did not enter tbe abdominal cavity at all, but struck the fascia ltimboruM, and having a slight downward tendency, was diverted further downward and lodged near the sacrum. If this theory be true, its pressure against the nerves which diverge from this point accounts for the tingling sensation in the feet. It is certain it aid not penetrate the liver, kidney, abdomen, nor bowels.

DR. SPAIN

was also interviewed, but did not deem the data sufficient to found any valuable opinion upon

DR. DE PUT

said if the ball struck above the crest of the ilium it probably entered the abdominal cavity if it struck below the crest it probably ranged downward and lodged in the vicinity"of the sacrum.

DR. JOHN R. CRAPO

was seen at his office on Walnut street. He ^as asked what he thought of President Garfield's wonnds.

If he is internally injured" replied the Doctor "I see no hope for him. Gun shots in the abdomen are usually attended with fatal results. Even a light contusion that appears trivial wnen received gradually may give rise to diffuse peritonitis and death." "Are flesh wosnds as dangeroufe?" "Flesh wonnds of this region are still more so." "Is probing a hazardous Matter?" "It is, indeed. There is much more danger in searching or probing for a ball than in leaving it where it lodM& senetraunc In the case of

wounds of the viseera escape injury, as they sometimes* do, there is still risk of peritonitis. Itmneh quently ocesrs, however, that the viscera is implicated and the danger is thereby increased. A wound of the solid viscera —namely: the liyer, spleen or kidneysis more dangerous than a wound of one of the hollow viscera, or the stomach and iiitselinse "Which of the two wonnds are the most dangerous?" "A wound of the stomseh or larger intestinee is more dangerous than a wound of the small intestines." "Have similar cases ever come under your observatiop "Sometimes. I hsve frequently heard of cases where the recovery of a patient seemed almost miraculous For instance we have a remarkable cure in John Cleary. Nobody thought he would live."

DFT GBORGE W. CRAPO

said that where there was an injniy of the peritoneal cavity the case was ex tremely dangerous. Abdominal wounds generally result fatally. The Doctor knew but little about Garfield's esse, but if the injuries are as serious as reported he had but little chance of recovery.

W. T. Leggett took a large excursion party to the far west yesterday morning. Mr. "Leggett will return in about a week.

DR. VAN VALZAH.

GENTLEMEN:—One of the great difficulties now in our profession in this state is indifference on the part of its members Indifferent as to whether thev become members of this society or not indifferent as to the success of our State Dental College. Consequently, coldness reigns when fervency and zeal ought to abound. Tbe leaven, viz the college and the society, necessary to overcome this indifference are at work, but their effectiveness needs to be largely increased. The responsibility rests with us tbe great end ana aim of our exertions as dentists should be to place these two institutions upon that high eminence where they may be viewed with admiration by receding generations and the memory of their founders be preserved through tbe latest ages, a monument of their liberality and live for tbe advancement of dentistry.

Whp will long find pleasure hi when their, is little or nothipffto be learn ed Who will long give his attention to work from wfiich he gets no gain or for which be receives no wages? Here is a great field to aid in edifying the profession. Let the light of this society shine. The profound depths have not all been explored, the grand heights have not all been reached. Their are gems yet to be discovered which will prove interesting and edifying. But who shall lend in this work? You are the leaders, others must follow. All cannot be leaders. All are not qualified in many ways to lead, but all may receive instruction. So you see all may engage in well-doing, to aid in edifying the profession.

We cannot honor our profession with 00 deep a reverence. We cannot love it with an affection too pure and fervent we cannot serve it with an energy of purpose, or a faithfulness of zeal too steadfast and ardent. We are identified with a profession, the distinguishing aim of which is to save teeth. Whether we have done good work, tiue work and work that will stand the test of time, the results alone will tell. He 'who by his labors, however humble or in whatever obscure position he may have wrought, adds be it ever so littl% to the attainment of the object, the edification of each other have met here in the past and now to tell of our success and failure in the treatment of the teeth and if possible to profit by the experience of those long in the practice. Our profession is fnll of failures, full of men who have never succeeded, men who did nothing but eat and sleep the first half of their days and in the last half did nothing but perpetrate their follies and weaknesses. The world is full, of such people 1 say, that do not amount'to anything, and who do not have a desire to amount to anything, and I dare say thoughtful men are weary of their presence. Every student ought to improve on his precep tor. No reproduction of the former the world the persome the way seems to be strewn with roses, others again find their line of duty in the humble vale of obseurity quietly following their profession. Others are assigned to soalethe rugged, heights of fame, to become teachers, impelled by a noble ambition. For these last we should labor.

type will give to the net dentist. With

We should lend our sympathy, our encouragement and support in their trials: hold up their hands that they may deservingly receive tbe applause and not the condemnation of their professinal brethren. Unfortunately there are many persons who imagine the Dental profession to be a mine of wealth, expecting the tbe sheckels to fall into their hands as the dew falls upon the flowers. "This is exemplified by the rich nobleman who was showing a great collection of precious stones, whose value was almost beyond counting. There were diamonds and pearls and rubies and gems from almost every country on the face of the globe, which had been gathered by their possessor with the greatest labor and expense, and yet, he remarked, they bring me no income. His friend remarked he had two stones which cost him ten florins each, yet they yielded him an income of two hunarea florins a year. The much surprised nobleman desired to see the wonderful stones, when the man led him down to his mill and pointed out tbe two toiling millstones. These two dull, homely stones did more good in the world, than the noblemen's jewels. We as dentists must work, net forgetting that it is individual merit alone that can succeed, and that will finally only be recognized, for as schools increase, as societies multiply, as state laws grow more stringent, gnorance will be rooted oat, and Know ledge will triumph. Knowledge alone is "wealth, is power, is happiness." We have those among us, not members of this society, whose overweening ambition leads them to forget the common courtesies, the ethics of the profession. We wish that dentists everywhere could convince the professional world that ethics linger in their hearts rather than in their ears. As a rule the latter are more capacious than the fonder and exhibit the only evidences of cultivation. The world moves, however, and the day is not remote when the true dentist will be distinguished from the crowd as leadily as are diamonds in the brick dust

Our roll contains the names of those of fcbUity, 'Barnes that shed lustre on the profsmien, names that are imperishably connected with its well-being and .adh vanoement in this state. We hope that those who deserve so much praise will never consider their honors full, their responsibilities at an end.

It certainly has always been a v^ry great pleasure to me to come in contact with my brethren. 1 have to thank you, for the confidence reposed in me, by calling me to preside over your councils, tbe assistance you have rendered end the sympathy you have manifested.

In passing from the responsibilities of the chair we must not forget the minor responsibilities pertaining to us as members of this Association, and I trust as lone as I am spared, 1 shall never forget that I am a humble member of this Association, entitled to participate in the proceedingss ot the same, and to share the burden and the duties oonnected therewith.

NOTES FROM KANSAS.

Another Letter From Mr. HanleyHe Pitehee Into Mr. FergvaoB, ofKiloj-

INDEPENDENT KANSAS, June 8,1881. To the Editor ot the Gazette: Not having said anything through the columns of your paper for some tint I will send you a few notes from this quarter of the globe. We have been hsving considerable rain here of late and it has done considerable damage to crops along Elk river. Considerable wheat has been wsshed away and some corn damaged and several bridges washed out at this point. The river wss about 80 feet above low water mark. The wheat crop is fair here Is places the fly worked on very badly. The oaU t^d corn crop was never better.

I saw a piece in a Terre Haute paper headed "A Card on Kansas" written by on* J. F. Ferguson ot' Riley township. Mr. Ferguson seems to have something to say about us and something about hi. trip to Kansas Isst Spring. He claims that we threw a slur at him and Mr. Hathorn on the statements thsy made about Kansas after returning. Their statement didn't hurt Kansas in the least Hathorn wrote the first letter and when Ferguson got home he copied it and sent it in and had it printed again in the ledger.

He also spoke about the Rev. Samiel Stevens who said he wanted to sell out. But if he does, it is with a view of landing near here. I have had some talk with Mr. Stevens and he has told me he is well pleased with Kansas. Mr. Ferguson also spoke about us being in the hotsl business. There he is mistaken again. He went on to state that every farm for 9 miles north of Independence was covered with rock ]that isanother mistake of his for north is mostly all bottom lands. I think Ferguson's eyes were eclipsed while in Kansas. Poor fellow I think he had better come to Kansas again and then he will be so full of news he can go hoese end aMist in editing some paper. That is, if hs can write, if not he ean get some one that is prejudiced against Kansas to do it for him, as I understand he ean't write himself. It looks that way from the signetnre he left on the, Hooker House register. 4

BARNUM'S CAR.

A Reporter's Grand Conception Which Canto to Vanght

Barnum's advsrtising car arrived yesterday from Champaign, 111., via the C. &£. I. It is a gigantic bill board on wheels so far as tbe outside is concerned, and the imaginative mind might picture it as a very pandemonium on the inside, a den of the animals that are depicted upon its enterior in such vivid illustration of the law of"the suivival of the fittest." But it is not. It is a busy business office during the day, and at night the sleeping room of a retinue of advertising men, whose service Barnum knows so well the worth of. Mr. C. Pulver is the advertising agent and has eleven men to assist him in his work of heralding the coming ot the great P. T. eight olll posters, two lithographers and one caliope player. The car is sixty feet long has an elegant little office in one end and berths for ten men in the other part, besides inumerabls chests of drawsrs for cuts and lithographs. Some idea of the extent of Barnum's advertising may be gained from the knowledge that the car has now in stock ten tons of posters, enough to cover a bill board one mile square. There is also a caliope in the car which is played at every station and every evening at 7 o'clock. There are two other cars like tliis one on the road, fitted out in the same way. Thus Barnum is made practically omnipresent throughout the land. The GAZETTE reporter had a fine scheme on hand to borrow the car and serenade his lady friends. In fact be had every thing arrangea—steam up, the player at liis post, add all ready, but an insurmountable difficulty presented itself: the car was too heavy. It couldn't be transported along the streets, and as the ladies didn't live along the line of the railroad, they missed a seranade which was intended to be on a scale of
