est point is 1870 feet in the air. The es.
timated cost of the I'll will be $3.50. 600

LENGTHY SPEECH FIGURED
IN SAVING COLONIES LIFE

CHICAGO, Oct. 16.-Colonel Roose-
velt's characteristic of acting un-
mindful of the advice of friends may
have figured largely in saving his
life when he was>shot at Milwaukee,
according to a STORY told last night
by those who have been travelling
with him.
When he had prepared his Milwau-
kee speech it was shown to several
men interested in his campaign.
Every one of them was of the opinion
that the address was too long, and
they advised the colonel that no
should throw out several pages of 1t.
Mr.. Roosevelt told them he would

FORT SAYS SHOOTING
REFLECTS UPON NATION

TRENTON, Oct. 16.-Former Gov
ernor Franklin Fort, chairman of
the Progressive State Committee. at
the State House issued the fol-
lowing statement upon the shooting
of Colonel Theodore Roosevelt:
"with all liberty-loving Americans.
7 regret the attempted assassination
of Colonel Roosevelt. I earnestly
hope he may speedily recover with
out any permanent physical injury.
The American people love Colonel
Roosevelt and they have much cause
for their affection. To me this at
tack, like others of its kind in the
past, is a great reflection upon our
republic. That attempts upon the
lives of our rulers and great men
should be made is a sad commentary
upon our boasted civilization. 1t
would seem that in a country where
the people rule and select their rulers
such acts by its citizens should be
impossible"
Newark evening star and Newark advertiser. [volume] (Newark, N.J.) 1909-1916, 1912-10-16

AT 4 O'Clock the colonel was snor-
ing so loudly that It could be heard
outside his room in the corridor.
At 5 a. m. Colonel Roosevelt was
still sound asleep.

Schrank, would-be assassin of former
President Roosevelt, spent last night
in a cell in the County Jail, having
been transferred there from the
Central Police Station after being ar
raigned before Judge Neelan in the
District Court on a charge of assault
with intent to kill.
81 am guilty as charged" he said,
in answe to the formal question,
land I am willing to waive pre-
liminary hearing. Set the case for
trial any time you like, for I am not
in a hurry. I am quite Indifferent"
AS this remarkable mar was led
away to his cell he stretched his
arms, yawned and remarked:
IT am all tired out now. l hope
they will let me get a good sleep
tonight"

maps Colonel Roosevelt awakened al
1890 p. IN. and called for hot water
to shave himself. He sat up in bee
with a hand mirror against his knees
and shaved, and then was given 8
sponge bath and alcohol rundown by
his nurse. After the bath his clint.
cal record was taken. Temperature
9s.8: pulse, SS.
He turned on his night light and
began to read again, saying that he
would do SO until he got sleepy.
Col. Declares lie VIII Go Home sunday
Colonel Roosevelt told his nurse
as he picked up his book for a second
spell Of reading, about II o'clock,
that he was going home to Oyster
Bay on Sunday. He ordered his
breakfast for Z o'clock and said:
Mind. I want a good one. I'll be
hungry
He gave directions about his
clothes and his room to have every
thing n readiness to see Mrs. Roose-
welt in the morning.
THE colonel acts very eager to see
Mrs. Roosevelt" said Nurse Fitzger-
aid. HE talks about it quite a bit
and is very particular about having
everything pleasant for her."
Nurse Fitzgerald said that the col
onel's pulse after his sponge bath was
not far above normal, considering his
physical characteristics. and a more
important fact concerning it was its
strong and steady rhythm, she said.
Colonel Roosevelt. after his bath and
shave, had no pain of any kind, but
said he was slightly nervous from
inaction.
| At midnight Colonel Roosevelt was
soundly sleeping. DR.. John F.. Golden,
assistant surgeon of the hospital and
DR.. j. B. Murphy's chief associate In
charge of the case, took a look at
the patient and reported hat there
was no prospect of any change in
the colonel's condition during the
night.
He will sleep till morning. He is
all right" said DR.. Golden.
The colonel was sleeping SO soundly
at 2 a. m. that his nurse did not
arouse him to take his temperature.
Ills condition apparently was approx
imately normal He lay on his left
side, breathing easily and regularly.
Soon afterward he awoke and his
clinical report was taken. His pulse
had fallen to so and was not far
above normal. His temperature re-
manned stationary at 1878 and his res
piration was Is. He felt wakeful, and
switching on his night light began
to read.
At 3 o'clock this morning he said he
vas getting sleepy, and told Miss
Fitzgerald, his night nurse, that he
never was a heavy sleeper, and that
he had been DOING so much during
the day that he did not feel the need
OF sleep. Nevertheless, the ~coloners
book twice had slipped from his hand
and he was asleep. His condition
was Approximately normal, and he
was perfectly comfortable.
BY $3.50 he was sound asleep. The
book he had been reading dropped
from his hands and lay beside him
| open at the page he had just finished
when sleep came. He was asleep at
4 o'clock, and she did not disturb
him to take his temperature.
Colonel Snored Loudly.
At 4 o'clock the colonel was snor-
ing so loudly that 1t could be heard
outside his room in the corridor.
At 5 a. m. Colonel Roosevelt was
still sound asleep.
