SCOTLAND, BON HoMME COUNTY, $ D. THURSDAY, ocToB

Colonel Roosevelt was shot and
quite seriously wounded by a would
be assassin last Monday evening in
Milwaukee. The wound was treat
ed lightly by the Colonel at first,
and he proceeded to the auditorium
and spoke for nearly an hour after
being wounded. He was then
taken to Chicago and an X.ray ex-
animation showed that the bullet
was imbedded in his right breast
to depth of four inches, but had
not passed through the wall of the
chest, SO the wound is not con-
sidered dangerous unless blood
poisoning should set in. His phy-
sicians think he will be confined to
the hospital about ten days. No
words of condemnation can be too
strong for such treachery. 1t is
unfortunate that the law will not
permit the extreme penalty, for the
purpose was plainly premeditated
murder, and that it was not COM
mitted does not relieve the perpetr-
ator of guilt. Whether the would be
murderer is crank, idiot or luna
tic, he is certainly too dangerous
to be permitted to run at large,
and some means should be pro-
vided to protect society from the
ravages of such desperate chara-
ters.

The Sioux City tribune says
that Congressman Mckinley, when
he told the senate investigating
committee that he didn't know
any thing "was falsifying as the
ordinary corruptionist does when
cornered." Lets see. Wasn't
this the same reply that MIR. Roose-
velt made when they asked him
about the Morgan and the Archi'
bald contributions?

Increased Pay in Prospect.

Each re-enlistment brings with it in
creased pay, and after seven years en-
listed service an ambitious man may be
examined for the warrant grade, life
position, which pays as high as $4,000
a year, with benefits Of retirement on
three fourths pay after sixty-two years
of age. Nor is an ambitious man neces-
sarily limited to advancement to the
warrant grade. The law permits a war
rant officer under thirty-five years of
age. with four years service at a boat
swain, gunner of machinist, to compete
in the annual examination for appoint
ment as ensign. At the examination
held in this city in July last, two
former enlisted men, Chief Machinist
L. r. Ford and Machinist L. N. Linsley.
passed satisfactory examinations and
were promptly appointed ensigns. At
a recent examination held for appoint
ments to the Pay Corps two former
enlisted men were appointed assistant
paymasters.
When the advantages Of the service
are cOnsidered-steady employment,
good pay, chances for special training,
wholesome living, free medical atten-
ton, retirement In old age-it Is not
surprising that so many young men Of
respectable families are turning to the
navy as career.

Variety of Methods.

Various methods are used in bringing
ton Of the young men of the country.
These methods have been adopted after
numerous Investigations to determine
what influences are most effective. Ke-
cruits are asked series of questions as
to what induced them to join the navy, and
these answers are tabulated from time to
time, affording much valuable informa-
ton in selecting publicity methods and
media. 1t has been shown that the most
potent factors IN attracting the attention
OF the young men are the classified adj
vertisements in the want columns of the
newspapers, display advertisements in
popular magazines: billposters, post Office
hangers and circular letters.
The circular letters are issued from two
publicity stations, one at New York city
and the other at Indianapolis These sta
tions are fully equipped with up-to-date
methods for printing folding and mailing
letters and other literature on a large
scale. The mailing list is kept supplied
by advertising. by postmasters of the
country districts and by the enlisted men
themselves. who are anxious to see their
old-time friends enlist.
1t has been found that among many
reasons which men give for joining the
navy the desire to see the world and
travel is always uppermost. That Is but
natural when 1t Is remembered that most
| years old. However. more serious motives
prevail, and only to slightly less ex-
tent. great many give as a reason the
opportunities to learn q trade, and a
chance to better themselves by the whole

Advantages Offered.

There is no doubt that the navy offers
young man many superior advantages.
particularly II he has not the good for
tune to be able to acquire mechanical
or professional education. The navy sup
plies that opportunity. If a youngster
has any mechanical ability the naval
service will bring It out and develop it.
Training schools are open to him for in
struction In the trades of machinist, cleo
tr1cian (bOth general and Wireless) and
in the various artificer trades. such as
carpenter, shipwright, shipfitter, copper
smith. blacksmith. boilermaker, plumber
and the like. If he has knack for cleri-
| cal work he may be sent to the yeoman
school, which fits him for the clerical
duties required both afloat and ashore.
On the other hand, If he has no special
aptitude for trade he is sent to one of
the big training stations. where he is
taught the knowledge of seamanship and
fitted for advancement In the various rat
ings comprising the seaman branch of
the navy.
After serving one enlistment creditably
he may enter either of the searlen gun
ner schools, one of which is located here
| in Washington. and the other at the tor
| pedo station. Newport, r. I. At these
schools he acquires a great deal of tech
! nical knowledge. not only in ordnance
work. but in other subjects which will
be of value to him when he returns to
sea.
1t is the policy of the navy to advance
it's men strictly upon merit, and it is de-
| clared that any man who serves one full
cruise without advancement lacks the
qualifications which would be necessary
to success in any other line of employ
ment. 1t is even possible for a man to
attain the rating of chief petty officer
during one enlistment. position paying
SIT month, with living expenses thrown
in. 1t is admitted, however. that it is not
an easy matter to advance thus rapidly
for such advancement requires excep-
tional ability and attention to duty.
