Dr.. H. A. Wall, a prominent ply
ician and druggist of Bronwood, was

1t seems that DR.. Wall, who had
been drinking during Sunday, shot
twice at Marshal H. E. Williamson at
the Central railroad depot in Bron-
wood Sunday afternoon when the Of
ficer was approaching him. One of
the bullets went wild, but the other
hit Mr.. Williamson in the fleshy part
of one of his arms and inflicted a
painful wound. That the officer was
not more seriously injured is re-
markable, as the bullet that inflicted
the wound passed between his I'M
dershirt and body before entering his
arm.
DR.. Wall waived preliminary trial,
and was released under bond of
$1,000 Monday afternoon to await
the action of the grand jury.

GLOOM FOR JOY RIDERS.
Assessed So Each by the Mayor fol-
Not Blowing Their Horns.

GNOb
Chief of Police Brown and his men
kept an eye on the joy riders Sat-
urday, with the result that when
Mayor Bell opened court Monday
morning no less than fourteen own
ers of buzz wagons confronted him.
They were charged with not
blowing their horns at crossings
and when turning street cor
ners. Seven escaped conviction,
and the mayor, in the com
passion of his heart, let the other
seven off with fine of 50 each and
an admonition to blow hereafter.
The automobile drivers seldom
blow their horns while turning cor
ners and the wonder is that many
people have not been seriously hurt.

UNORGANIZED MASS.
The Informal Ceremony of Selecting
 A Candidate.

CHICAGO, June 22.-FOrmer Presi- dent Roosevelt was nominated for president on an independent ticket tonight in the dying hours of the re publican national convention in which he met defeat The followers of Roosevelt gathered at Orchestra hall less than a mile from the Coliseum and pledged their support to the for mer president.
 In accepting the nomination ROose- welt appealed to the people of all sec tions regardless of party affiliations to stand with the founders of the new party, one of whose cardinal princi- ples. he said, was to be thou shalt not steal" The informal nomination of Roosevelt was said to be chiefly for the purpose of effecting a tenn pOrary organization. Beginning to- morrow when a call is to issue for a state convention in Illinois the work of organization will be pushed for ward rapidly, state by state. At a later time, probably early in August, it is intended that a national conven- tion shall be held
 Roosevelt in accepting the nomina- ton IOnlSDI SdlQ ne Ulu 50 WllIl tilt understanding that he would be will ing to step aside if it be the desire of the new party when organized, to select another standard bearer
 The speech nominating Roosevelt was made by Comptroller w. A. Prendergast of New York, who was to have presented the colonels name to the convention. Hon. Wm. Draper Lewis of the University of Pennsyl- vania law school, who was to make one of the secOnding speeches, de- livered tonight the address which he had prepared for the republican con- ventiOn. Representatives from tWen- ty-two states composed the notifica ton committee which informed Roose- welt of his nomination and in a sense, stood as sponsors for the movement
 The committee consisted of Prem dergast of New York, Meyer Lissner of California, former Congressman Pearson of North Carolina, Knox ot Garfield of Ohio, Browning of Ken lucky, Bierer of Utah, Thompson of Vermont, Judge Hundley of Alabama Judge Lindsey of Colorado Kahn Ot Minnesota, Judge Stevens of Iowa Judge Lowder of North Dakota, White of Kansas, Greenway of Arizona.

Departure of Lawmakers from the
 Capital

The merry and companiOnabIe leg islatOrs. who have been with us for the past month, who have regaled us with stories of the navigation of the ship of state and who in various ways have been furnishing newspaper copy" will soon be only a memory. But a couple of nights ago and the said lawmakers infested the hotels and clubs and were in evidence at every turn; while now they are scarce as grasshoppers after a heavy frost.
 The trains yesterday evening car ried many of them out of the city. Some, however, remained until today, and a smaller number will remain until tomorrow. And even one or two, who have business matters to look after will stay on for a week yet: but for the most part the statesmen faded away last night.
 Tt was a splendid and a hard working legislature Governor Hunt said last night. "The boys were ab- solutely honest in their efforts, too he said, "and generally speaking they have made good records. They did a lot of hard work and the state is certain to derive a vast amount of benefit from the special session.

WITH SATISFACTION
 BUT NOT SURPRISE
How News of Taft's Nomination Was
 Received in Phoenix.

While no demonstration followed the announcement in Phoenix last night of the nomination for president of William Howard Taft about the hotel Hobbies and places of business there were may expressions of satisfaction among republicans. There was an en- tire absence of surprise as the people had been fully prepared for the con- vention's action by the dispatches which had been received earlier in the evening.
 When a Republican representative informed Governor Hunt of the presi- dents renomnatiOn, a short time after the first wire was received the gover- nor said he had already been apprised of the event by a telegram from New York The report that a mass meeting was to De held in Chicago in the inter- ests of Roosevelt and the probable for nation of a third party aroused much more interest and comment than did the news of the presidents nomination
 There were various surmises as to the probable result of an attempt to launch a new party; but there were few who regarded the matter at all seriously. I twas the general eXpres- sion tha- all the talk of a third party was the result of momentary excite ment and disappointment following the overwhelming defeat of the Roosevelt forces and when the excitement dies down all thought of a new party will be abandoned
 There were numerous humorous ref erences to the Roosevelt delegation which had gone to Chicago and the part it would probably play in the pro- ceedings outside the convention hall.
 No direct word was received last night from any of the Arizona delega- ton in Chicago. It is expected however that the delegates will start on the return journey today and will probably arrive here Tuesday night.

THE COLISEUM.

The slight change of acts last even- ing at the Coliseum, proved as popular as the stunts performed throughout the week, and received great applause from the audience.

De Marest and Doll have a musical act in which the man, the girl and the piano, are all present at the psychological mo- ment. "The Shomers" known to the vaudeville world as the Marvellous Teeth Equilibrists" will do number of thrilling, balancing acts. in which their incisors and canines will play promi- nent part
 The Howard Sisters will furnish the third attraction with a singing and dancing act that is both amusing and skillful. The photo plays and slides of important events, are the latest re- lease and change every other night.
