CoLoNEL'S WouLp-8E ASSASSIN
BELIEVED TO BE MANIAC WHO
HAS BEEN FOLLOWING HIM.
EX- PRESIDENT WON'T GIVE in
Addresses Audience in Auditorium
After Man Who Gave His Name
as John Schrank of New York
Had Fired Bullet.

Milwaukee, Wis.-An attempt to
assassinate Col. Roosevelt was made
as he started on his way from the Ho-
tel Gilpatrick here to the Auditorium.
AS he stepped into an automobile
shot was fired by a scraggly attired
man, who edged his way through the
crowd to the motor car. The strang-
er, who it was later learned is John
s. Schrank of New York, took deliber
ate aim and sent the bullet crashing
into the ex-president's right side, just
below the nipple. The shooter was
nabbed by Elbert H. Martin, the ex-
presidents stenographer, and Capt.
Alfred o. Gerard of Milwaukee, a
rough rider under Roosevelt.
AS he was about to fire another
shot, the revolver, 80 caliber affair,
was knocked from his hand by Col
Cecil Lyon of Texas, who is accom-
campaign trip. Lyon jumped out of
the automobile and started to choke
the would-be assassin.
Roosevelt, who had staggered back
into the automobile when the shot was
fired, raised himself up and stood
looking up at Lyon, who was sitting
on the shooter. The ex-president
cried, with a gesture: Don't hurt
him; I'm all right"
A captain of police rushed in as
Lyon released his grip on the fellow
and, with Lyons help, dragged the
man into the hotel kitchen.
Col. Roosevelt sat back in the mo-
tor car as an immense crowd that had
witnessed the shooting yelled to him.
With rare presence of mind the colo
mel, waving his hat, cried out: "My
good friends, Pm not hurt Pm going
on to the hall to sYeak. Good luck"
The whole incident had occurred so
quickly that the asto\ished crowd did
nothing but stand stock still.
Roosevelt Is Plucky.
Roosevelt then turned to the chauf-
feaur and in calmn voice, remarked:
Nov just run the car up to the Audi
torium. I'm not hurt"
The car started up and in moment
Roosevelt was on his way to the hall
with bullet in his side,
The eX-president did not actually
realize that he had been shot until he
got to the Auditorium. five blocks
distant. He knew that the bullet had
grazed him, because he felt it against
his side, but he believed that it had
simply gone through his overcoat.
AS he reached the Auditorium the
ex-president felt sharp sting in his
side and instinctively placed his hand
up 1t. DIR. Terrill, his private physi
clan who rode in the automobile with
him. noticed the gesture.
Colonel, believe you are hurt,
he suggested, with alarm.

WHAT WAS THE MOTIVE?
Evidence just Developed Points to
Jealousy of Husband for Man
Who Later Murdered Him.

Since the murder of Thomas Dol
phin by Marsden Hubbard at the
formers home near Waymart, some
time ago, there has been rumors
among the family's immediate neigh
bors to the effect that Mrs. Dolphin
and Hubbard were more friendly
than was brought out by their testi-
mony Immediately following the
murder. The stories told by Mrs.
Leonard and her daughter as given
to a reporter of the Citizen who visit
ed the place that morning, seemed
very flimsy evidence that the MUIR
dered man had been killed because
of his brutality to his family or to
prevent his taking another mans
life. 1t was very weak evidence,
first, because neither Mrs. Dolphin or
the children had any marks on their
persons to indicate that brutal treat
ment had been used upon them and,
on the other hand the self-defence
theory looks as if it were invented
at a critical moment when no other
defence presented itself to the MUIR
derer.
The neighbors tell of how good
Dolphin had always been to his fam
lily in providing for them in every
way. They did most of their trading
at Dymond's store at Waymart where
it is said Dolphin's pay checks were
always cashed. The needs of the lit
tie household nearly always took all
the money so Dolphin hardly ever
had much left over to use as he
pleased. He was never known to get
drunk. He took a drink once in a
while when he had the money but
used it properly In fact, the stor-
les of the people of that neighbor-
hood tend to disapprove the stories
previously given by Mrs. Dolphin or
Mrs. Lora Leonard, her mother.
Another side of the story that has
just recently developed is that con-
cerning the dealings of Hubbard and
Mrs. Dolphin. They were often to-
gether and he made himself agree
able to her and the children during
his stay in the vicinity. Dolphin was
overheard to remark one time, that
he wished his wife would be more
careful who she had at the house
and with whom she went out with.
AS the testimony of many of these
neighbors plainly show there was
jealousy there, and that being the
case, Hubbard had no business in
Dolphin's house. He should have
left and avoided all the trouble
County Detective N. B. Spencer,
while working on the case recently,
stumbled on several bits of fine evil
dence for the state. Just what he
has found has not been disclosed,
but we have been informed that cer-
tain things that were in evidence
that Sunday morning at the Dolphin
home, have been removed or done
away with.

CRIMINAL INSANE HOSPITAL
WILL BE READY EARLY IN FALL
Trustees Hope To Have Farview In
stitution Open for Patients by
October Is.

In order to have the new State
Hospital for the Criminal Insane, at
Farview, ready for occupancy Oct.
10, the date named in the contract,
the executive committee of the
board of trustees of the institution,
headed by Colonel Walter Nc
Nichols. of Scranton, is working
diligently.
A contract for farming imple-
ments to be used at the hospital is
to be awarded August 21. The COM
mittee expects to award the contract
for the furnishings about September
10. These furnishings are to be in
stalled within month after the job
is let. When this is finished all will
be in readiness to receive the in
mates by the fifteenth of October.
Large forces of workmen are engag-
ed in putting the finishing touches
to the power house, laundry and the
reservoir, and it is expected that
they will be completed in a few
weeks.
When the new hospital is ready
the criminal insane now being cared
for in the several asylums through
out the state will be brought to Far
view. At the start accommodations
will be ready for 200. DR.. T. c..

TUBERCULOSIS DAY TO Be
OBSERVED
Sunday, Oct. %, Has Been Set Aside
BY the National Society for
Prevention.

Churches and religious societies,
to the number of at least 100000,
will be urged to give special atten-
ton to the prevention of tubercu-
losis on Sunday, October 27, or on
some day during the week preceding
or the week following that date.
This season has been set apart and
designated as the Third National
tuberculosis Day by the National
Association for the Study and Pre-
vention of tuberculosis, which makes
this announcement to-day.
tuberculosis Day was originally
set on April 2S, but was postponed
because of a conflict with Conserva-
tion Sunday of the Men and Re-
ligion Forward Movement, which
was held on that date. The observ-
ance OF tuberculosis Day in the Fall
this year will be utilized by anti
tuberculosis workers not only for the
general education of churchgoers on
consumption, but also for the pur-
pose of interesting them in the sale
of Red Cross Christmas Seals.
Every one of the 900 and more
anti-tuberculosis associations allied
with the National Association, will
be urged to promote Tuberculosis
Day IN their respective communities.
While last year over $4,000 churches
observed this occasion, it is expected
this year that this number will be
| doubled. Millions of circulars and
other forms of literature will be
distributed. The support of every
religious denomination will be asked
! for.
That tuberculosis is a serious
problem among church congregations
is evidenced by statistics which the
| National Association gathered last
year, which show that 10 per cent
OF all deaths among church members
! are caused by tuberculosis. BASED
on these figures and on the mortality
| statistics of the Census Bureau, ovel
$4,000 of the 100000 communi
cants in churches in the United
States die from tuberculosis every
year. This figure assumes that thu
death rate of LEO per 900 popula
tion in the Registration Area applie
to all church goers, when, as a mat
ter of fact, the rate would probabl,
be higher.
