The avenue from the <lb/>

of five blocks, was a surging <lb/>
mob of people, mostly women, <lb/>

pass. When the carriage <lb/>
containing Miss same along, <lb/>
numbers of these women rushed out <lb/>
and stopped the some even <lb/>
poking their heads in the carriage to <lb/>

was equally bad, many of the women <lb/>
forcing their way inside only to be <lb/>
driven out by others <lb/>
crawled under that cover- <lb/>
ed the sidewalk in front of the door, <lb/>
and as soon as the ceremony was <lb/>
over they rushed in and despoiled <lb/>

There can be no doubt that the <lb/>
Panama insurrection was encouraged <lb/>
in the construction of the <lb/>
isthmian canal, and it is safe to abundant indication that he was try- <lb/>
diet that within a very short to have his medical brethren re- <lb/>

rejection of the treaty <lb/>
threatened to prevent the grafters in <lb/>

share of the swag it was necessary <lb/>
to stir up a revolution on the isthmus <lb/>
in order to give the an <lb/>
opportunity to Panama as <lb/>
an independent state and enter into <lb/>
negotiations with it for the <lb/>

Fred Olds, writing from <lb/>
to the several papers o which <lb/>
ho is correspondent, makes the es- <lb/>
that in the gubernatorial race <lb/>
assure him and tell him that he had <lb/>
done right. He described the <lb/>
tom in each of the cases with the most <lb/>
elaborate care and argued like a law- <lb/>
to show that early death was ab- <lb/>
inevitable. Those who <lb/>
heard him judged that he had gone <lb/>
over the matter countless times in <lb/>
his own mind. Any conscientious <lb/>
doctor would be exposed to the same <lb/>
self-torture in like conditions. Always <lb/>
he would be likely to have some sud- <lb/>
den doubt come to him in a time of <lb/>
depression whether the dead and <lb/>
gone patient really did not hare <lb/>
some chance, whether something <lb/>
could not have been done at least to <lb/>
prolong life. One of the ob- <lb/>
we should judge to the <lb/>
would he the fearful <lb/>
it would throw on the doctor. <lb/>
The line between using narcotics <lb/>
to diminish the pain of the parting <lb/>

about the death stroke is a fine one, <lb/>
