A PLEA FROM ROOSEVELT
HENDERSON ASKED TO RECON
 SIDER HIS ACTION.

SpBhAGES HONNVNOAs 4(SSAe~SS NO AeSSSAA@ His Withdrawal from the CoDgrcss- ionaI Race in IOwn-His Decision Final Despite Earnest TeIegrams from Leading National Republicans Asking Him to Reconsider.
 Dubuque, Ia., Sept. 17.-speaker Hem derson is as positive to-day in his dec lination of the congressional nomina- tion as he was last night, notwithstand- ing the flood of telegrams from all parts of the country protesting against his decision and imploring him to reconsid- CT the same. President Roosevelt sent a telegram deploring his action and urging him to withdraw his declination, but the speaker replied that his decis- ion was final.
 The following is the telegram receiv- ed by Speaker Henderson from the president:
 Most earnestly ask that you recon sider your determination not to run.
 (Signed) Theodore Roosevelt" Other telegrams of the same tenor were received from all the members of the national committee and the nation al congressional committee, Senators Allison, Hanna, Spooner, Lodge, Fair banks and others.
 Congressman J. M. Babcock, chair man of the republican national com- mittee, sent the following:
 New York, Sept. 16. Am in receipt of telegram, signed by you, saying that you have this day de- clined renomination for congress. We cannot believe the telegram is genuine. Hepburn and Hull are here. and all en- ter our earnest protest again action of this kind by you. The republican par- ty, which you have served so long and faithfully, cannot part with your ser vices now.'
 Replying to these telegrams, the speaker further explained his action ad- herring to his position. He gave posi- tive assurances that there was no dan- ger to the Third district, that Governor Boise is very weak candidate, that the republican candidate will be elect ed, that he will do what he can to in- sure his election. After these assur- ances the speaker said he must decline to reconsider his withdrawal.
 Earlier in the day Speaker Henderson sent the following in response to re- quest to reconsider his aetion: 4@,.
 Dubuque, Ia, Sept. 16 'Lafe Young and s. W. Rathbun, Des Moines, la:
 Your joint telegram sincerely appre- ciated, but cannot reconsider, for after an age spent in fighting for my coun- try state and district I cannot acqui- esce in administering free-trade poison to cure the trust evil, which abhor.

SHOT BY INSANE VETERAN
TITO PROMINENT ESSEX LIEN
 DANGEROUSLY WOUNDED.
David Hayden Makes Murderous Attack bate, and Henry s. Pratt, First se:ect- man-Then Blows the Top of His Head OR-A Sisters Narrow Escape-The Wounded Men Taken to New London Hospital.

Essex, Conn.,, Sept. 1.-Two of the most prominent citizens of this town are lying at the point of death in the Memo rial hospital in New London as the re- suit of murderous assault made upon them by David Hayden,an insane veter- an of the civil war Hayden himself is dead, having blown the top of his head off when the authorities attempted to capture him. His victims are Thomas D. Coulter, judge of probate, and Hen ry s. Pratt, first selectman of the town, and prominet coal merchant.
 For many years Hayden has been considered mentally unbalanced, and at times has displayed an ugly disposition. Judge Coulter has always been friend Of the man, and when Hayden stopped him on the street this afternoon he en- gagged in conversation with the man without hesitation. Very few words were exchanged between the men. Hay den asked Coulter if he had any grudge against him. The judge promptly replied in the negative and laughingly remark ed that he had no reason to have one. Hayden thereupOn, without the slightest warning, drew a revolver from his pocket and fired at Judge Coulter twice. One bullet lodged directly below the heart, another in the side, and while attempting to disarm Hayden the re- volver was discharged third time and bullet went through Coulter's hand. He succeeded in getting the revolver, and Hayden, finding himself without a weapon of any sort, turned and fled in the direction of his home.
 First Selectman Henry s. Pratt heard the shooting and witnessed part of the struggle between the two men. He was on his way to assist Coulter when Hay den fled. Pratt immediately pursued the insane man. but owing to his ad- vanced age the latter rapidly gained on him, and by the time Platt had reached the gate leading into Hayden's yard the latter had entered the house and as Pratt attempted to follow he was confronted by shotgun in the hands of the man whom he wished to capture. He had not a moment to save himself for Hayden fired almost as soon as he caught sight of his pursuer. Pratt Pratt dropped to the ground shot over the heart, and apparently fatally wounded
 By this time a large crowd had col- lected and the manner in which Hay den could be captured was discussed. Meantime the subject of their thoughts re-entered the house and became in volved in quarrel with his sister Elizabeth, who has been keeping house for him. The woman was badly fright ened and ran out of the house for as- sistance. While appealing to the crowd to come to her assistance the report of gun was heard. A number of men entered the house looking for Hayden, and found him in the back yard with the top of his head blown off, and the shot gun with which he shot Pratt lay by his side.
 The wounded men, in charge of Dr. Schaffer, were hurried to the station, where they took the 5;0S train for New London.

nther Fert,lizer Needed.

1t is generally admitted that there is
considerable manGrial value in the
grain stsbble left on the field to be
plowed under, this value consisting of
a portion OF all the essential plant
foods in varying degrees, together with
more or less lime and humids In
some cases this value is considerable
in one plant food as in the case of the
nitrogen in the plowed-under clover.
1t is a mistake. however. to believe
that the manure in this stubble is suf-
ficient to prevent the depletion of tAe
soil by cropping. and yet this Is tie
idea that is strongly fixed in the minds
OF many farmers. There is no getting
away from the old natural law that the
soil must have returned to it at least
a little more than the crop takes from
IT, and this the stubbIe and scant appii-
cation of stable manure will not do
The possession Of the ideas indicated

she looked very beautiful as they wait
