The bullet entered his body below the tenth rib. ; Colonel Roosevelt was taken to Chicago last night on a late train and said that he experienced no pain. At police headquarters Schrank was examin- ed and he stated that he had followed Roosevelt from the east for the pur- pose of shooting him but that no previous opportunity had offered itself. Asked for his reason, he said that the late President McKinley had appear- ed to him in a dream and ordered him to kill Roosevelt because Roofevelt had murdered McKinley, The man pending further developments. is believed insane but is being held GIANTS TAKE ONE BY 5 T0 2 COUNT (Continued on last page). and Meyers and Herzog flashed a double steal. .

BORROWING AS A FINE ART Proof That This Bad Habit Is Impos- sible to Eradicate in Some People. : Day by day, as Mrs. Worth’s house hold and kitchen turniture and grocer- les slowly disappeared, she saw that fhe moment approached when a final stand must be made. One morning, when Jimmy, son of the borrower, ap- peared at the back door with the state- ment, “Ma wants the wash-boiler,” Mrs. Worth determined to act. “You tell your ma that when she brings back what she has already bor rowed, I will lend her the boiler.” In a little while Jimmy reappeared. “Ma wants to know what she bor- rowed.” “There is a quart of flour,” began Mrs. Worth, “a peck of potatoes, a cup of sugar, a can of coffee, a half-pound of lard, some onlons, and butter and ipices; the screw-driver, the hatchet, » pair of scissors”—she paused, recol- lecting—*“three spools of thread, a pa- per of needles, and—" But Jimmy was gone. Presently he rapped on the back door again. “Ma, says for you to write ‘em down. [ forgot some of ’em.” Mrs, Worth sat down with pencil and patiently made an alphabetical list : all the articles she could remem- Jimmy took the list and disappeared, A half-hour later he once more reap- peared at the back door and an- wounced: “Ma says if you'll lend her the wash- boller to carry ‘em in, she'll bring’em bome.”—Youth’s Qempanion, S et e L R e PRICE OF PEARLS GOING UP American Jewelers, However, Are Using Them Extensively and'Seem- Ingly Have Large Supply. Reports from abroad foretell a rise in the price of pearls, but nevertheless the high class jewelers are preparing some of the most elaborate pearl Jjewels ever shown in this country. Fes- toon necklaces, corsage ornaments and tiaras are some of the larger pleces, while rings, bracelets, pins and brooches, pendants, watches, chains pnd earrings are all pear] mounted. Although quantities of pearls are be, Ing used, the quality is well above the average in-the best jewelry, and even when the FEuropean markets have only a scattering of the finest gems merchants here have some splendid pearls and are only inconvenienced when they are called upon to match those of unusual shape or tint; other, wise the market seems to be well stocked. A dull market is not expected on ac- count of the advance in price, but rather the jewelers are looking for- ward to added interest and lively trad- ing. A remarkable rope necklace priced at $760,000 was seen lately that puts to fiight the notion that finely shaped pearls are becoming scarce, for in this one the gems are wonderfully matched throughout the entire length of its 60, inches. The necklaces that sell for from $25,000 to $50,000 can be found at any of the best shops. ! IS GETTING READY FOR WAR Abyssinian Government Erects a Cart- ridge Factory and Shop for Repair of Firearms. The efforts made 'by the powers to prevent the importation of arms and ammunition into Abyssinia have constrained the Abyssinian govern- ment to erect a cartridge factory in the capital, Adis Ababa. The cart: ridge manufacturing plant has been purchased in Germany, and has. a capacity to turn out ten million carts ridges a year. The building destined to recefve it has already been completed, and the machinery has been dispatched from Germany and is about to arrive at Adis Ababa. The factory will have a workshop attached for the repair of military weapons, in which from fif- teen thousand to twenty thousand rifies can be repaired every year. The mechanics required for this service have been engaged in England and ere also on their way out to take up their work in Adis Ababa. Power will be supplied to the cartridge factory, a8 well as other factories in the cap- ital, by hydro-electric plant—Frank- furter Zeitung. Manual “Wireless.’ A new form of generator has been developed by the United States signal corps for use with its portable wire- less telegraph sets. It consists of a small generator, the motor of which is driven by hand cranks through a suitable gearing. Two cranks are provided, so that two men may drive the motor at the same time, and if necessary four men may be employed —two at each handle. Low and high speed releases are provided, which disengage the driving gear when the £peed rises above or falls below a pre- determined limit, so that the motor may be kept at a fairly constant speed. The generator is capable of turning out about 200 watts, and it is light enough to be packed on a mule. The portable generating set has a sending’ capacity of about fifteen miles. “Maintenante of a Microbe. A country echool teacher was cash. ing her monthly check at the-bank.

Sometimes a sailot will send for a Boston attorney to des fend him, although this tendency is discouraged by the officers. Most at- torneys know they have no absolute right to practice in a naval court, and can do so only by permission of tha court, but occasionally a lawyer goes aboard who does not Tealize this fact. A sailor who was charged with gambling had retained an attorney ta get him off. This attorney, who had never had such a case before, went brigkly into the officers’ wardrobe, where the court was sgitting, and without walting. on ceremony began to address: the court in a blustering manner. “Just & minute,” interrupted the presiding officer. “Who are you?” “I am Mr. Rudolph Smithers,” the attorney replied, “and I am a member of the Massachusetts bar.” . “Oh, you are Mr. Smithers, are you?” continued the officer. “Then you are the man.whom the orderly wants to see.” He called the orderly. “What does the orderly want of me?” asked the attorney in a superior tone. “Nothing very much,” replied the chief justice; “he merely wants ta show you off the ship.” 8ome Hand for a Sick Man. A certaln man stayed out much Iater at night than his wife liked, and as he would never tell her where he had been she got their little boy to ask him, One morning at breakfast the youngster said, “Dad, where wuz yer last night?” “Never mind where I was,” an- swered the father. “But,” insisted the boy, “where wua yer?” “Well, if you must know, I was sft ting up with a sick friend.” “Oh, did yer sick friend die?” “What an absurd question! Of course he didn’t die!” . “Oh, but did you hold your sick friend’s hand?” “No,” answered the father, ‘“how foolish you are. Of course I didn’t.” And then he added, with a far away look in his eyes, “I wish to heaven I had. He held four aces!”—Pittsburgh Chronicle-Telegraph. Salarled Cat. The only salarled cat in the United States, so far as one can find out, has just died in New Orleans, and was given a proper burial. This was Old Tom, who for years had been carried on the board of trade as official rat catcher, with a salary of ten cents a day, and was never discharged, though in his later years he was as reluctant as other veteran office hold- ers to get busy. But he had no ene- mies except of the feline sort, and his framed picture is to adorn the directors’ room at the board of trade. —Springfield Republican. Disinfecting Silver.
