dorses. Not even Governor Hadley, the
arch progressive of Missouri, could read
an insugent endorsement into Roose-
velt's pronouucement in ST. Louis, and
whether or not Roosevelt is for or
against the endorsement OF the Payne
Aldrich tariff law in the Missouri plat
form, no one knows Roosevelt and
his party left to-day for Springfield
and Peoria, where he will be the guest
OF the knights of Columbus.
Yesterday Roosevelt was passenger
in a Wright biplane driven by Arch
Hoxsey, one of the professional ayiators
at the meet here this week. under the
auspices of the Aero club of St. Louis.
The colonel and Hoxsey flew three times
around the field in three minutes and

he exclaimed on alighting, Il only wish

to pass between them when the unknown
man grasped him and held him before
his face just as the former prize fighter

The bullet entered the boys head and
the unknown coward dropped him and
fled. 1t is thought that he jumped on a
street car and escaped Seeing his mis-
take, Greenwald, still with the revolver

and women who mad heard or were wit
