RECLAMATION WORK
IN WEST PORTRAYED
Chief Engineer in Government
Service Gives Pleasure to
Large Audience

Several hundred members of the
Commercial club and their ladies at
tended the illustrated address deliv-
cred in the assembly room in the Ma
sonic temple Friday evening by Chief
Engineer A. c. Davis of the recla-
nation service. His talk was inter-
esting coming from one who had been
at the head of this important gov
eminent service for so many years
and his pictures were especially fine;
giving those present a view of the
work that is being done and has been
ACCOMPLISHED at some of the most inn
portant projects in the West. he
slides were colored to the highest
point of artistic taste and gave the
assemblage an opportunity to view
the most beautiful scenery, which Is
vouchsafed to few but the engineers
engaged in the work of the reclama-
ton department.
Mr. Davis is an easy talker and
could have been well heard by all
present but for the fact that many OF
the audience came late and the chairs
being new gave out sundry noises
that were disquleting. Rev E. A. King
gave the use Of his lantern for the
occas sion and operated it, thus making
that part of the performance success
ful. AT the conclusion of the address,
these present repaired to the Com
mercial club rooms below. participating
in the reception to Governor and Mrs.
Hay, who were present. A light lunch-

Like all persons who decide to
work, Professor Sharpe says he has
been opposed by all of his good
friends who have labored to con-
vince him that he never should at
tempt anything so radical for one in
his line of work; and so far their
predictions have proven true to the
extent that he has not yet given up
the profession for which he was so
well fitted and filled successfully, but
he is firm in the belief that he will
ultimately retire to his own vine and
fig tree where his hobby will have
full sway for It's accomplishment.

MILWAUKEE. Oct. ll.-Theodore Roosevelt was shot and slightly wounded in the left breast tonight while leaving the Gilpatriek hotel for the Coliseum by a man who dftcrward made the statement that any man who looks for a third term ought to h. shot
 For a time the would be assassin appeared to be in imminent danger Oi being lynched at the hands ut the in furiated crowd. but Mir. Roosevelt begged and besought the people not to harm him. Finally he was taken under arrest.
 Mir Roosevelt would probably be . dead man had it not been for d thick roll of manuscript which he carried ip his pocket and which the bullet struck without penetrating.
 Notes found in the pockets Uf the would l.. assassin later show him to h. crazy. Amongst the notes were statements to the effect that he had Ottn NlSittu bS tue uittih SPliAN '' President Mckinley who had said. in- dicating Roosevelt.
 This is my murderer. Avenge my dcath!"
 Roosevelt. while taken by surprise. seemed 10 be quite cool after the oc- currence The man who fired the shot was very roughly handled but the col- onel fought hard to save him and succeeded in calming those who eN- citedly cried out to string him up.
 At the firing of the shot Mir. ROOse welt placed his hand on his breast for moment and many feared that Il repetition of President Mckinley $ fate was at hand for him. After the first moment. however. the crowd paid it's attention altogether to tn. man who fired the shot and several near the outskirts added to the eN- citement by struggling madly to ap- proach the assassin.
 His name was not learned at the time of his arrest and his identity has not yet been established.
 Mr. Roosevelt proceeded with his speech later as if nothing had occur red and seemed none the worse for the experience.
