his assailant before there was q
chance for second shot.
Taft Sends Message.
One of these messages was from
President Taft, another from Senator
La Toilette. The colonel seemed deep
ly touched by both of them.
Mrs. Roosevelt, her son Theodore
Jr, and her daughter Ethel reached
the city this morning from New York
and are at the bedside of the express
ident. Mrs. Longworth also arrived
here from Cincinnati early today.
Senator Beverage arrived last night
and was the only one permitted to talk
to the colonel for any length of time.
1t has been decided that the colonels
injuries are so serious as absolutely
to preclude any further attempts at
going on the stump. He has told
Beverage what he wants his final
message to the people to be, and Bev-
eridge will deliver it at Louisville
next week.
Visitors Are Barred.
The colonel was not allowed to re-
ceive many visitors yesterday. Many
called, but few got past the front
gate of the hospital, which is care
fully guarded by police detail.
Medill Mccormick and Cecil Lyon
were both early callers. In the after
noon, he received by special appoint
ment the newspaper men who had
been with him on his campaign tour,
and who were in his party at the time
he was shot. To these the colonel
said that he felt as well as could be
expected, and that he had not the
slightest fear that his injuries were
In the least serious.
AS the day wore on the surgeons
who have his case in charge seemed
to disagree with his view to some ex-
tent.
Doctors Murphy and Bevan, whose
names have appeared on the bulletins.
were inclined to scoff at the wound
early in the morning but later they
pointed out that the injuries are really
serious, and that the patient must be
kept absolutely quiet or his chances
of recovery will not be so good.
The fear of blood poisoning is in
the minds of all who are at the bed
side of the Progressive candidate, and
In the opinion of the surgeons it will
take some little time to determine
just whether or not the colonel is go,
ing to escape this danger. AS pre-
cautionary measure the attending
surgeons have given the distinguished
patient prophylactic dose Of anti
tetanic serum to guard against the de
velopment or appearance Of lockjaw

May Cause Infection.
At the time he was shot he had on
heavy outside overcoat. The bull
let passed through this, through his
frock coat, through the thick wad Of
manuscript from which he made his
address later on and through a meta
spectacle case In which he carries his
huge tortoise shell goggles While
all these served to diminish the force
of the bullet, any Of the outer mate
rials may have held infection which
can be just as dangerous as bullet
The colonel's great vitality, how
ever, is counted on to pull him
through any ordinary ordeal, and the
physicians in their final bulletins were

Boston, Oct. 16.-Special: For the
first time since the Inauguration of
the post series season in base ball it
was necessary to play the eighth
game to decide the worlds champion
ship today. Each contender had
three games to it's credit and one
game a tie. The weather was rather
cold and raw today, and inclined to
chill the enthusiasm of the 10000 spec
tators
When Manager McGraw this morn
ing announced that the veteran Chris
ty Matthewson would be on the
mound for the Giants he added: Mat
ty will win the game and the National
League will hold the base ball cham
pionship of the world. | am certain
that the uphill work of the Giants
thus far in the series will be crowned
with victory. Matthewson has not
the mechanical ability he had in 1906
when he stopped in never-to-be-forgot-
ten fashion the Philadelphia Athlet-
les, but he still has his base ball
brains, REINFORCED with a heap of
experience, and his arm has not lost
much of its cunning as shown in the
remarkable game he pitched last Sat
urday. Furthermore he is willing to
pitch his arm off to win and crown
his career with the supreme satisfac-
tion of winning another worlds cham
pionship for the Giants
Manager Stahl sent Hugh Bedient
to the firing line for the Red Sox,
with Wood warmed up and prepared
to go to his assistance. Marquard is

would be nothing like that of our great

Mrs. Moser Commits Suicide.

! Mrs. Martha Moser, aged rs, wife Of
Mr. Elmer Moser residing near Monu-
ment, village about three miles west
OF Myersvllle committed suicide a few
days ago, by shooting herself in the
head with shot gun. Mrs Moser COM
mitted the deed in an up stairs room,
! while her small son, aged about four
| years, was in the yard about the house,
| and her husband was at the barn, a
short distance away.
No reason can be assigned for Mrs.
Moser's terrible deed 1t is understood
that her home life was ideal AT the
| noon meal she spoke irritably and this
gave her husband some concern, but he
did not think that she would take her
life Mrs. Moser was a Miss Poffin-
berger before her marriage, her father,
John Potiinberger, killing himself when
she was but a mere chlld. She was
reared in the family of Henry Moser, at
Zttlestown
Upon hearing the report of the gun
the husband rushed to the house and
found his wife dead, with the blood
rushing from the wounds made by the
load OF shot. Death was probably in
stantaneous, as the head had been hor-
rlbly mansled by the force of the shot
1t is thought that the woman placed
the muzzle of the gun against her head,
leaving it rest against the forehead, Just
between the eyes. Her left hand was
burned with powder, this member prob
ably holding the muzzle of the gun,
while the right hand or foot was used 10
push the trigger
DIR. Ralph Browning, of Myersvitle,
who was called described the sight as
one OF the most grewsome that he had
ever witnessed
Justice William Brandenburg went at
once to the Moser home. After ascer-
tanning the facts he decided that an in
quest was unnecessary. The remains
were taken in charge by Undertaken c.
T. Gladhill and by him prepared for
burial.
The funeral was held on Sunday after
noon, October 9th, at O'Clock. Serv-
ices were held in the United Brethren
Church at Myersville and interment was
made in the cemetery adjoining the
church
