SHOT FOR PRESIDENT D!
FIRED FROM AAl 4
Story in Circulation Basis Of
Searching Investigation.

Oyster Bay, L. l., Sept. "a search.
Ing investigation is being made to de-
termine the circumstances giving rise
to the report that shot was fired
from ambush upon President Roose-
welt last Saturday. Every foot of
ground in the vicinity where the at
tempt is alleged to have been made is
being gone over and the closest quest
is being prosecuted to ascertain
whether or not any person to whom
suspicion might attach was seen in
the vicinity of Oyster Bay about the
time the shot is said to have been
fired.
According to the story in circulation
here shot was fired from a clump of
bushes near the roadside while the
president and a friend were returning
from horseback ride. The report CT
the shot came from close at hand, it
is said, and after the first shock of
surprise, which caused the presid ent
to urge his horse forward Mr.. Roose-
welt turned abruptly about and pre-
pared to dismount and rush on foot
into the thicket. He was dissuaded
by his friend, however, and together
they galloped away to Sycamore, Hill.
No information at all regarding the
incident came from the presidents
home or the executive Offices here,
but it appears from the story, as later
told, that Camille. Weidenfeld, a New
York banker, was driving with Mrs.
Weidenfeld in the vicinity and was 2
witness to the occurrence. The Wei
denfelds we're in public carriage anu
their driver also is said to have heard
the report of the shot and, to have
witnessed the excited actions of the
president and his companion which
Immediately followed. No one yet has
been found, however, who saw the
man who is said to have fired the shot.
The general opinion seems to be, thai
if shot was fired it was by some
hunter who was totally unaware of the
presence of the president in the yicin-
ity. -

EXCURSION 70 RED lax
WILL Be GIVEN SUNDAY
NJ, R. L. & N. Ry. Will Run Specia
Train Leaving Bemidji at 9
in the Forenoon.

Many Bemidji people are looking
forward with anticipated pleasure
to the excursion to Red Lake
which will be given under the aus
pieces Of the Minneapolis, Red Lake
& Manitoba Railway company, next
Sunday, when special train will
leave. Bemidji for Redby, and
from that place a crowd will be
taken to most any point desired on
the shores of the famous Red Lake,
the largest body of fresh water
wholly within the boundaries of the
United States.
The Red Lake railroad people
have given a previous excursion
this year, and the affair was very
well patronized, the people of the
city and many transcients who were
Bemidji guests at that time taking
advantage of the opportunity to
visit one of the most interesting
places in the entire state. That
excursion was so well enjoyed that
the management of the railroad has
been prevailed upon to run another
excursion. 4@.
The special train to Redby will
leave Bemidji at $50 a. M, and
returning from Red Lake will arrive
in Bemidji at about 9 o'clock in the
evening: The new gasoline boat
which the railway company owns
and which is operated on Red
Lake, will be at the disposal of
the excursionists, and where the
crowd will be taken depends upon
the weather. Should the lake be
stormy, it is more than likely that
but a short trip will be taken on
the boat. If the weather is fair, the
crowd will be taken to any point
on the lake desired. :'
There are so many interesting
points to visit on this trip that no
one who can should miss the excur-
sion. There is the old church and
burial ground at Redby, where the
Indians for years worshipped ac-
cording to their aboriginal ideas;
and the Indian agency, a short dis
lance up the shore from Redby is
always place of interest.
The fare for the round trip from
Bemidji is but 81. .. .-.a- 49,

Apathy Over Coming Election May

San Francisco, Sept. 9.-In an inter.
view b. H. Hartman, who is on his
way East from his summer home in
Southern Oregon, said that there
would be no extensive improvement
work begun on any railway lines I'M
der his control until the financial sit
uation had relaxed considerably. Mr..
Hartman commented upon what he
termed the apathy shown over the
presidential election and said that this
state of affairs might readily prove
dangerous, as conservative voters pos
sibly would not have suf1cient inter
est to come to the polls.
Mr.. Hartman declared that he was
in favor Of tariff revision and that he
believed the tariff should have been
revised six or seven years ago, when
sthGr financial changes were made.

days courteously. And II was so,
that the father Of Publius lay sick Of
fever and dysentery: unto whom Paul
entered in, and prayed, and laying his
hands on him healed him. 9 And when
this was done, the rest also that had
diseases in the island came, and were
cured: 10 who also honored us with
many honors; and when we sailed,
they put on board such things as we
needed.
II And after three months we set
sail in a ship of Alexandria which had
wintered in the island, whose sign was
The Twin Brothers. II And touching
at Syracuse. we tarried there three
days. 10 And from thence we made a
circuit, and arrived at Rhegium: and
after one day a south wind sprang UP,
and on the second day we came to
Puteoli: II where we found brethren
and were entreated to tarry with them
seven days: and so we came TO Rome.
Is And from thence the brethren,
when they heard Of us, came to meet
US as far as The Market Of Appius
and the Three Taverns; whom when
Paul saw, he thanked God, and took
courage.
IS And when we entered into Rome,
Paul was suffered to abide by himself
with t le soldier that guarded him.

And when we were escaped, then we
knew that the island was called Melita.

common kindness: for they kindled a
fire. and received us all, because Of
the present rain, and because Of the
cold. But when Paul had gathered
a bundle of sticks and laid them on
the fire, a viper came out by reason
Of the heat, and fastened on his hand.
And when the barbarians saw the
venomous creature hanging from his
hand, they said one to another, No
doubt this man is a murderer, whom,
though he hath escaped from the sea,
yet Justice hath not suffered to live.
5 Howbeit he shook off the creature
into the fire, and took no harm. 8
