BARNEY CURTIS
CASE SETTLED
City Council Votes That He Is
A Citizen Of The United
States
ADOO ABOUT NOTHING
Matter OF Citizenship Has Been In
Controversy For Past Two
Years Or More

The Barney &. Curtis case regarding
his citizenship has finally come TO an
end and ii is sincerely TO be hoped that
the City and Common Council will
not be bothered with il any more.
The case was tried out at special
meeting of the Council last Friday and
as will be noted in the Council Pro-
ceedings the charges brought against
him fell fiat and he came through with
flying colors, showing that he is now a
full fedged citizen and has been ever
since his great grandfather was born
somewhere down in New York more
than hundred years ago. The Curtis
families moved TO Canada and when
Barney was eight years old his folks
came to Michigan, such good jurists as
old Judge Lowell of Ionia and many
others told Jonas Curtis Barney's faith
ther that he didn't need TO take out
papers that he was better ciLizen OF
the United States than'a whole lot of
men who had been born under the
United States flag.
Barney says the whole thing is a
piece of spite work brought about by
meddelsome takers. OF course when il
was injected into the City Council II
was their duty 10 carry it on To finish.

Makes Great Speech To I'm
mense Gathering--Advises
Preservation OF Insti-
tutions Of Civil
Liberty
NO HOPE IN DEMOCRATS
Third Party Has Not The Slightest
Chance OF Success-Impressive
Points OF Address

Al Beverly, Mass, last week Presi-
dent Taft made his first prepared
political address since accepting the
Chicago nomination. The impressive
points of Mr.. Tafts speech follows:
One issue of even greater fundament-
al and permanent importance than the
tariff and prosperity is the preservation
of the institutions of civil liberty.
There is not the slightest chance of
success for the third party. Its chief
purpose is the defeat of the Republican
party, and even in that there is now
every possibility that it will be disap-
pointed.
The happiness of the people is more
deeply affected by the prosperity and
good business which now prevail than
by any other one condition.
The real question at issue is whether
the people are so anxious TO change
from protection policy TO tariff for
revenue that they are willing TO assume
the burden of the hard times which
must necessarily accompany the
change.
You cannot make an omelet without
the eggs, and you cannot change from
system which protects great part OF
our business TO one in which such pro.
lection is withdrawn in such a way
that business will not be seriously in
jured.
The suggestion that comes at times
from Governor Wilson that tariff
changes are TO be made in tender
conciliatory and modifying way, with
sweet reasonabeness, is of that ell
phemistic character which pIeases the
ear but which does not satisfy tht
reason.
How foolish the American peopl,
would be TO hazard the continuance o
prosperity by voting into power party
whose first declared principle is hos
tiIity TO the policy of protection on tn,
way our business is conducted.
A third party has split off from tn
Republican party, not for any on

Grand Opening OF Star Theatre Great
Success


Messrs Hill Il Torrey, the new man,
ayers OF the Star Theatre, held their
formal grand opening Friday, October
IL, at that popular little theatre, which
was pronounced success, from an
amusement as we'll as a financial stand
point. A very pleasing program had
been arranged, starting with parade
at seven o'clock and band concert in
front of the theatre by Fleck's Concert
Band.
On passing into the theatre each one
was presented with carnations and
roses by three little white gowned
flower girls. Rummler's well known
and fine orchestra furnished the music
for the show, and after an overture the
illustrated song "As long as the Sham.
rock Grows Green," was sung by Mrs.
Albert Rummler in fine voice and in
her usual capable manner. Next on
the program was very interesting
comedy picture. Then came Eddie
Torrey, that funny comedian, as he is
styled in a black face singing and talk
ing act, introducing his famous musical
boot. He held the stage for fourteen
minutes, keeping the audience in an
uproar of laughter from start TO finish.
Mr.. Torrey certainly lived up to his
name as funny comedian being oblig.
ed TO take two or three bows at the end
of his act before his enth usiastic hearers
were satisfied.
The show closed with very laugh
able comedy picture and as each one
passed out, they were unanimous in
their verdict that they had enjoyed as
fine show for the money and as sue
cessful an opening as was ever held ir
Belding. Three shows were given as
above mentioned, about eight handred
attending. New lights and the decor
ating of the lobby give the Star Theatr,
very pleasing appearance and th'
management say they are not through
improving yet. adv

CRANK SHOTROOSEvELT
Physicians Say Wound Is Not Dang.
erous-Dastardly Attempt To
Assassipate The Ex-Presi-
dent Was Made I'm
Milwaukee

Theodore Roosevelt was shot in the
breast nj Milwaukee at 8 o'clock Mon
day night by crank named John
Schrenck just after he entered his auto
mobile at his hotel to go to the Audi
torium TO deliver speech. Col. Roose-
velts life was probably saved by a
manuscript of the speech which he de-
livered at night. The bullet struck the
manuscript which retarded its force as
it passed through into the flesh.
Schrenck was prevented from firing a
second shot by Albert II. Martin, who
was standing in the car with the colo
mel, leaping on to the assassin's shoul-
ders and bearing him To the ground.
Capt. A. o. Girard, who was on the
front seat jumped at the same time
and in an instant the man was over
powered and disarmed.
Mr.. Roosevelt insisted on going 10
the auditorium and making his speech
he was afterward taken TO hospital
where an examination by five physi-
clans showed the wound not TO be a
dangerous one.
His attempted slayer lived in New
York, his grandfather was a Bavarian
brewer who went crazy and Schrenck
was brought TO this country by his
uncle and aunt, Domick and Anna
Flammang, % years ago. Flammang
opened saloon at 320 East 10th-st.,
and the boy was known TO his school
mates as John Flammang. When fif-
teen he went behind the bar of his
uncle's saloon as bartender.
Thomas Harris, president of the
Liquor Dealers association said today
that Schrenck was a member of the or
ganization and was always considered
to be little bit off in his head.

The new book play in which Nor
man Hackett is starting this season
will be seen at Belding Opera House
Wednesday night, October %, is a
dramatization of Halle Erminie Rives'
popular story, "Satan Sanderson," and
anyone who has read the book will ap-
preciate the splendid possibilities af-
forded by the story for dramatic pur-
poses. The story has TO do largely with
a young minister, Rev. Henry Sander
son and Hugh Stires, who bear a close
resemblance. They were college boys
together but the sudden and tragic
death of one OF his chums reformed
Satan Sanderson, while Hugh con.
tinued his riotous living. Sanderson
takes charge of a church at Aniston,
the home of the Stires. Hugh returns,
a pretending prodigal and marries the
ward OF his father, the girl whom San.
derson also loves. This same company
is playing all the week at Lyceum
Theater, Detroit, and is a positively
guaranteed attraction. Prices 30, sc
