WEATHER CROP BULLETIN.
For the week ending April IA, 1912.

For the week ending April IA, 1912.
Des Moines, Iowa.
The winter was severely cold and
of long duration, and the amount OF
snowfall was the greatest on record.
The larger part of the state was COW
cred with snow nearly all Of the time
from December goth to about March
|2ath. The snow went off rapidly after
March Goth, but as there was but lit
tie frost in the ground the larger part
of the water was absorbed by the
soil, yet all streams were at a high
stage at the close of the month, and
much bottom ground, especially in
the southern counties, was Hooded.
The heavy mantle OF snow afforded
good protection to fall sown grains
and grasses and they are now in good
condition, except in the counties along
the Mississippi river from Scott
county southwark. where the snow
covering was light during the cold
weather in January and most of Feb
ruary. The past week has been fav-
orable for field work and much seed
ing, blowing and disking has been
done with the soil in excellent filth.
The acreage of winter wheat is much
greater than it was last year, but the
extent of spring seeding depends
largely on the conditions during the
next fe wdays, as only about one
half to two-thirds of the acreage in
tended for small grain has yet been
seeded. Many potatoes have been
planted and gardens made. Fruits
have remained nearly dormant as yet,
and eXcent DeacheS and pears, are re-
ported to have been uninjured by the
low winter temperatures. Live stock
came through the winter in fairly
good condition. but in most sections
the supply of hay and rough feed has
been entirely or nearly exhausted.
While the season opens a little later
than usual. the conditions at present
are favorable for good crop year.

SAVED CoLoNEL's LIFE.
ROoseveIt's Secretary Tells Story of
the Shooting.

Milwaukee, Oct. 15+Albert Fl.
Martin, one of his secretaries, to
whom Colonel Roosevelt perhaps owes
his life, told the story of his adven-
ture.
Il walked down stairs with the col
onel, and out to the ear he said,
and had taken my seat before any
thing happened. AS Colonel Roose-
welt was standing in the car waving
his hat to the crowd, the flash of met
al caught my eye. l did not stop to
think of what I was doing and before
1 really knew it, jumped over the side
of the car and had my arm around the
neck of a man I had hardly seen.
Everything seemed to happen at once.
There was a flash a sound of
shot, and /. was on the ground with
the man, L threw one arm around his
neck and held him fast. At the same
time 1 caught his gun with my free
hand and wrenched the revolver from
him. He struggled for q minute, but
in spite of the fact that he was acting
like madman, he did not keep up the
fight long, and with the help of Capt.
Girard, 1 soon had him under control.
Il picked the man up and held him
where Colonel Roosevelt could see
him.
- The poor creature said the col
onel
Il put the revolver into my pocket
and began to drag the man out of the
crowd"
A newspaper reporter who was
standing in the crowd in front of The
hotel and witnessed the shooting, gave
the following account:
Colonel Roosevelt had just de-
scended from his room in the second
story front of the hotel, where he had
been receiving calls from friends AMI
admirers, accompanied by a growing
escort as he neared the door.
THE doorway was cleared and on
the sidewalk a wide passageway was
maintained by Sergeant A. ]. Mooney.
who saluted the colonel as he passed
and turned to watch him as he kept
on toward the autom obile.
Arriving at the curb, Colonel
Roosevelt extended his hands toward
the frames of the doorway to the rear
compartment, his body inclining
slightly to the front. 1t was just as
he was rising into the automobile,
supported by the grip he held on the
frame, that the shot intended to take
his life was fired.
Colonel Roosevelt gave no indica-
ton by movement that he felt the
impact of the bullet but there was a
sound as though of a gCoan coming
from his direction.
"A moment after the shot Colonel
Roosevelt put his right hand on his
overcoat, well up near the shoulder on
the left side, and rubbed it slightly
Then he sat down in the car.
Meantime, the man who fired the
shot was captured a fraction of a sec
ond later.

HE was taken into the hotel and

Milwaukee. Oct. 15.-John Schrank.
Colonel RooseveIt's assailant, pleaded
guilty to a charge of attempted mur-
der when given a preliminary arraign-
ment before Judge NJ. B. Neelen in
the district court today.
Milwaukee, Oct 15-Schrank's ar
raignment caused little excitement at
City hall where Judge Neelen's court
room is located. 1t had been announc-
ed that Schrank would not be taken
to court before tomorrow. As a result
his appearance was not noted except
by newspaper men until his case was
called. Then Schrank, between two
detectives who lowered a foot above
his head was brought to one side Of
Judge Neelen's bench.
District Attorney label read the for
NAL charge of attempted murder
based on warrant for Schrank issued
today.
do you understand the charge
which the district attorney has just
read here?" said Judge Neelen to
Sch-ank.
Yes" replied schrank

judge.

We'll, 1 desire to have a chemical

geons in case the test shows that there
will be further complications from

Jailer Paulus and Attorney label
hastened by motor car to Professor
Somer's laboratory. The court room
less than two-thirds filled with specta-
tors. Scarcely more than twenty peo-
pie on the front benches realized the
import of what was taking place at

ot disorder at any time.

this case, as in others, Roosevelt left
the building by an entrance other than
the one at which he had stationed him
self.
During all this time he had Travelled
under the name of Walter Ross, ex-
cept at Charleston, where he gave his
right name.
While in Chicago on Saturday he
was at the Jackson hotel and he de-
cided after his failure at the Coliseum
to come to Milwaukee in advance or

to Milwaukee Sunday morning.
Prepares to shoot.
He learned that Colonel Roosevelt
was to be a guest at the GlpatFicS and
managed to get in a position near the
entrance. where he could shoot to kill
when Roosevelt appeared.
Schrank said he was sorry he had
caused all this trouble for the good
people of Milwaukee and Wisconsin,
but he was not sorry that he carried
out his plan.
The man talked fuentlv, and was
willing to answer most of the questions
put to him. He used excellent English
and seemed to be we'll satisfied with
his deed. While being quizzed he sat
easily in a big leather chair and looked
his questioners squarely in the eye.
Willingly Schrank went to the cell
room where he was placed in cell No.
1. Later on several members of the
Progressive party who are accOmpying
Roosevelt on his trip, reached the sta
ton and asked that they be allowed to
talk to the man.
He was again led upstairs to the
chiefs private office, where he told the
same story. He had a good memory,
ana did not become confused.
While talking, the man occasionally
rubbed his hands across his forehead,
and when smiling had rather pleas
ant appearance. His hands are we'll
formed, and did not have the appear
ance of being those of laborer.
