ENJOYMENT OF THIS AGE.
Are We Enjoying in This Age What
One Would Term Prosperity

Are we living in that age where
prosperity is enjoyed in general
throughout this great Inland Empire?
What is it that makes this age more
prosperous than In previous years?
The question can be answered in va
rious ways. but we will mention the
many new inventions made as one of
the great means by which this empire
has made part of its wealth. Among
these inventions we find one method
or plan by which people that have
long been paying rent can own

Attempts to Hill
President Roosevelt
Whether Asssilsnt Had Accom-
Pliees Is Not Certain

Oyster Bay, n. Y: Much secrecy
was preserved about the details Of an
attempt made on the life OF President
Roosevelt late Tuesday night, in
which the nations Chief Executive
narrowly escaped serious injury.
Henry Weilbrenncr, a young farmer,
Drawing the Secret Service guards on
Sycamore Hill, drove within less than
100 feet of the Presidents home and
pointed revolver at him as he came
out on the porch by the library win
dow. He did not have chance to dis
charge the weapon.
While It is supposed that the young
Syosset farmer is mentally unbal-
anced, he has for months been cher
ishing a distinct grievance against the
President
To Mr.. Roosevelts recent attitude
toward organized labor, Weilbrenner,
who is none too clear witted, attribut-
cd his own hard life and bad luck and
the misfortunes that have pursued his
family
When arraigned in the little court
in Oyster Bay he adopted an imbecile
air, which the Secret Service men be-
lleve was assumed. When they ques-
toned him at midnight, however, as
to the object for which he sought the
President, he said:
II wanted to kill him. l had my
shooting iron ready"
Whether or not Weilbrenner had &C.
completes the Secret Service men
have not been able to learn.
Weilbrenner was in a state Of wild
excitement when he was locked up in
the village jail shortly after midnight.
He did not disguise his intention of
shooting the President.
1t was not until he was arraigned in
the court hours later that he gave
vent to wandering statements.
The chief of the Secret Service
staff, who was present, tried to draw
him out, but Weilbrenner evaded his
questions, and while before Justice
Franklin he made no threat against
the President Three physicians in
Oyster Bay examined the man later in
the afternoon. They came to the con
clusion that he was a paranoiac, al
though the dementia was Of recent
origin.
It appears that one Of his brothers
who attended the examination this af
ternoon, is a metal worker and be
longs to a labor union in Brooklyn
Some time ago he lost his position and
went with his wife to his fathers farm
at Syossete.
The farm is good one, but the fam
lily is in debt for 1t and the father
Henry Weilbrenner, and his son, who
was arrested last night, have beer
working hard to lift the Indebtedness
The son from Brooklyn, it is said
talked a good deal to his brother re
Gently about labor unions and abou
the loss of his position. 1t is thought
that the hard work and the trouble
over the farm Indebtedness had some
thing to do with unsettling young
Weilbrenner's mind.

Reliance Finishes
Last Race Alone


New York: The Reliance. the
American cup defender. Thursday won
the third and final race and the series
for that famous sea trophy, the Amer
ica's Cup.
In dense fog which prevented Wis
ion beyond 200 yards, she finished the
race at 5:30;O2, amid the aoclamations
of the assembled feet.
Shamrock III, after running for
more than an hour In the fog, missed
the finish line. passed by It and then
returned 70 It from the opposite direc-
ton.
AS the Reliance was then being tow
ed through the feet, with the yachts
ensign iuttering from her truck, and
spreaders in celebration OF her victory,
the Shamrock III did not cross the fin
ish line.
AS often said Of the historic race
when the America won the cup,
There was no second"
This successful result was achieved
only after four futile attempts to sail
on the final race and after the outcome
had been admitted by Sir Thomas
Upton to be a foregone conclusion.
Thursdays was the eighth attempt
to sail a race. After one fiuke the Re-
lance won the two following races,
one by seven minutes and three sec.
onds and the other by one minute and
10 seconds. A week ago Thursday the
first attempt to sail the third race
failed and attempts have been made
every day this week. On these occas-
ions the Reliance led the Shamrock to
the finish line by two miles, but failed
to reach it before the expiration of the
time limit of five and half hours.
This victory means that the cup is
destined to remain in America until
England is able to produce a genius
equal to Herreshoff in yacht design
| ing.
