EX-PRESIDENT THEODORE ROOSEVELT.

SHOT AT CLOSE RANGE BY MAN SAID TO BE JOHN SCHBENK, OF NEW YOBK, AS HE

WAS STANDING IN AN AUTO BEFOBE A BIG CROWD.

IS NOT SERIOUSLY WOUNDED

As Bullet Did Not Enter Lung—Was Probably Saved By Manuscript of Speech—The Man Was Caught—

Roosevelt Made Speech Following the Shooting and Said He Was Not Much Hurt—Assassin's Bullet Located.

(From Tuesday's Daily) Theodore Roosevelt, candidate for President on the Progressive ticket, was shot at Milwaukee, Wis., last night by a man thought to be John Schrenk, of New York. The gun was fired at close range while Mr. Roosevelt was standing in an automobile waving at the crowd. The bullet entered his breast, but did not pass -through his lungs. He was probably saved from serious injury by the manuscript of a speech he carried in an inside pocket, which retarded the bullet.

The man was caught at once by men with Mr. Roosevelt in the automobile. Roosevelt insisted on making his speech and afterwards the bullet was located in his breast by the X-ray and surgeons removed it. It is thought his injury is only slight, or at least not serious.

In the pocket of the man who shot Roosevelt, was a paper on which was written a proclamation which reads as follows: "Sept. 15, 1912. Sept. 15, 1901. In a dream I saw President McKinley sit up in a monk's attire, in whom I recognized Theodore Roosevelt. The President said: 'This is my murderer avenge my death.' "Sept. 12, 1912, 1:30 a. m., while writing a poem someone tapped me on the shoulder and said: 'Let not a murderer take the Presidential chair. Avenge my death.' "I could plainly see Mr. McKinley's- features. "Now, before Almighty God, I swear this above writing is nothing but the truth."

The man was taken in charge by the police, although there was a wild scene, and talk of a lynching.

J. W. Copeland, of Dayton, Ohio,1 purchased a bottle of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy for his boy who had a cold, and before the bottle was all used the boy's cold was gone. Is that not better than to pay a five dollar doctor's bill? (for sale by all dealers. (Advertisement)

Fortunes in Faces.

There's often much truth in the saying "her face is her fortune," but it's never said where pimples, skin eruptions, blotches, or other blemishes disfigure it.

MY POLICY

(Private Car Excursion October 29, 1912)

THIS IS NOT an "unloading" proposition. Read this through and you will see why. My policy is not simply to sell. I am interested beyond the mere sale. My interests remain side by side with those of the purchaser.

I WANT contented settlers and satisfied buyers. I have a lot of them already, but I want a lot more. On my last excursion in September, I had two carloads of them.

BEHIND THE SWIGABT PLAN, and associated with me in the work, I have a large, strong, hustling land organization working in unison with buyers and settlers in the development and upbuilding of this Tract. THIS IS NOT a "clean-up" and then "get away" land selling scheme. After I hand you your deed, our mutual interests will continue. We will work together. I remain to see the settlers through. I have been identified with this Tract for nearly 17 years. What has been accomplished, the settlers there will tell you, and the evidence is there in plain view of all who will look. There has been, no bubble boom about it. STEADY, SUBSTANTIAL progress has brought about the present good showing of good farms, good homes, miles and miles of new roads, new fences, producing fields, many good schools, new towns. telephones, etc. It is a remarkable showing when you consider that 17 years ago the district was almost uninhabited, when I acquired the nucleus of the present Swigart Tract from lumbermen who had not until then finished their cuts. have since bought many large holdings and added them to the Swigart Tract, and am doing so at every good opportunity. In the past five years this Tract has been developing and settling more rapidly than any other new land in Michigan. THIS IS NOT a remote, untried district where a man goes and has to learn the agricultural possibilities through his own experiences. You can now see what is being actually accomplished. The crops have been tried and proven. I keep agricultural experts on the lands at.my Michigan headquarters, whose advice is free to every one and under whose direction my demonstration farm is operated for the instruction of all interested. My faith in the land is further demonstrated by the fact that I am developing in the center of the Tract wrhat will be one of the largest fruit orchards in the State of MY NEXT EXCUBSION LEAVES Michigan.
