Shield and Killed.

Jacksonville, Fla, Oct. 13.-While
speeding on his motorcycle at a rate
of so miles an hour up the Atlantic
boulevard late this afternoon, Frank
J. Troncien, barber and amateur
motorcycle racer, crashed into an au-
tomobile driven by Thomas Palmer,
the force of the compact throwing
him through the windshield of the
automobile causing almost instant
death. Troncien had been spending
the day at Pablo Beach and was en-
route to the city. The accident oc-
Cured as he swung around car

to see the car driven by Mr.. Palmer
bearing down on him. The automo-
bile was filled with ladies, but none
were injured.

Dogs to Chase Cotton Stealers.

Following a long distance tele-
phone message received last night at
1890 o'clock at the penitentiary,
Guard J. c. Robbins left this morn
ing with the blood hounds for Car
Isle, S. c., where the hounds will be
put on the trail of parties suspected
of stealing cotton. No details of the
cotton stealing could be learned to-
day at the penitentiary. The mayor
of Carlisle 'phoned the penitentlary
officials, asking that the dogs be sent.
J. C. Robbins, penitentiary
guard, who was sent to Carlisle, S.
c., early this morning with the peni-
tentiary dogs to put them on the trail
of persons suspected of having stolen
cotton, returned to the city this af-
ternoon and stated that the dogs
trailed a negro and that he was ar
rested in a corn field several miles
from the town. The dogs tralled
him for about three and a half
miles.
The negro is charged with having
stolen cotton from the store house OF

His Escape Was Timely.

When Frank King returned from
the Spanish-American' war he was
asked to tell of some of his expert
ences, says the Kansas City Star.
"How long were you in the hos
pital when you we're shot?" he was
asked.
"stayed just five days; couldn't
stand it any longer
"Why so? Were you not well
treated?"
"Well, you see, when I went in
there were six patients. The first
day they buried one."
"Well, what of that?''
Nothing; only the next day they
buried another. l knew my turn
would come in time. I went in on
Monday, and l knew l would be car
ried out on Saturday. So 1 packed
my knapsack and left on Friday. II
| hadn't I'd surely have been buried
on Sunday. Six days-one man eacn
day. 1 couldn't stand that

The governor is right in refusing
to pardon John J. Jones who killed
Abe Pearlstine at Branchville. How
ever, he says he will reduce the SEN
tence later, but he should not do
this, for it is just, and Jones should
congratulate himself that he got off
so light In many States he would
have been hanged. Speaking of this
matter reminds us that extensively
signed petitions were presented ask
ing for the pardon of Jones, yet he
refused & pardon. Why does not the
governor always act on his own re-
sponsibility in the matter of pardons,
no matter how many petitions are
presented? He did so in this ease,
why not in others?

A few weeks ago the editor of The
Herald wrote President H. /. Wat
son, of the S. c. Press Association,
suggesting a mid-winter social and
business meeting of the Association
and a trip to Cuba afterwards. The
date should be along about the mid
die of February or the first of March
when business is slack The meeting
might be held in Columbia or some
central point from which the start
on the trip could be made, and our
idea is that there need be no papers
read and the session be only day or
such matter. where the newspaper
men and women could mingle in So
cial intercourse and discuss inform
ally matters of interest to the pro-
fession. Many newspaper men, and
women, too, have never been to
Cuba, and we know of no more inter-
esting trip. What say the brethren
about it?

Roosevelt Shot.

Col. Theodore Roosevelt was shot
in the breast by a fanatical would-be
assassin in Milwaukee, Wis, Mon
day afternoon shortly after five
o'clock.
The shooting occurred just after
Colonel Roosevelt had left the Hotel
Gilpatrick and stepped into an auto
mobile to go to the auditorium in
which he was to speak. There was
great crowd on the sidewalk and in
the street waiting to catch glimpse
of him as he was leaving. AS Colonel
Roosevelt stepped into the car the
crowd began to cheer, and while he
was standing up waving his hat in ac-
knowledgement, the would-be assas-
sin wormed his way through the
crowd up to within few feet of the
colonel and fired. Col. Roosevelt
barely moved at the report of the
pistol and did not change his attl-
tude.
Mr.. Martin, stenographer with
the Roosevelt party, captured and
overpowered the man before he
could fire second. time, and then
Roosevelt protected the man from
the crowd who wanted to lynch him.
1t has turned out that the name OF
the would-be assassin is John
Schrenck, a New York laundryman.
He told the police that he had been
following COL Roosevelt for more
than a month, and among other
places had gone to Charleston, S. g.,
with the hope of catching his victim
there.
The man is evidently crazy on the
subject of a third term for presl-
dents, and is Socialist as we'll. He
was lodged in jail, and now says he
is sorry he shot the eX-president.
Notwithstanding the wound, Mr..
Roosevelt went on to the auditorium
and made his speech. Later he was
carried to the hospital, and while the
wound is somewhat serious, his con-
dition is good and his recovery is
expected. He never gave way any
time, and laughed and talked with
the physicians while they were exam
lining him. The wound is IN the
breast, but the bullet did not touch
the lungs or any other vital organ
of the body.
