Tuesday last, as he was leaving his hotel at Milwaukee, to make an ad dress in the auditorium of that city. Fortunately some manuscript the Colonel had in his coat pocket checked the speed of the bullet and probably saved his life.

Mr. Roosevelt finished his speech after which he was taken to a hospital. He was afterward removed to the Mercy Hospital, Chicago. The bullet entered one inch below the level of the right nipple. The range of the bullet was upward and inward a distance of -ur inches on the chest wall.

Vindicated for Half a Century, Here is what the first platform of the Republican party, on which Lin coln was nominated in 1860, said: While providing revenue for the support of the general government by duties upon imports, sound pol icy requires such an adjustment of these imports as to encourage the development of the industrial inter ests ot the whole country: and we commend the policy of national exchange which secures to the work- ingman liberal wages, to agriculture remunerative prices, to mechanics and manufacturers an adequate re ward for their skill, labor and en terprise, and to the nation commer cial prosperity and independence." And it is the consistent adherence to this policy that has made the pres ent prosperity of American indus tries, including agriculture. The wisdom of that policy has been amply vindicated in the half century just closing. Go to the Lykens Candy Kitchen for your Ice Cream and Ice Cream Sodas, Fruits and Candies.

Something New in Campaigning. something new in campaigning has been introduced by Chairman Moore of the National Republican Congressional Committee of Penn sylvania, who has instituted a prize essay contest, open to all school children in the State, colleges and normal schools being barred on the subject "Protection versus Free Trade."

The three best essays will be printed and circulated throughout the State, as campaign documents.

Competitors desiring pamphlets, speeches and other material for the preparation of their essays, may ob tain them by writing to the headquarters of the Committee, 1527 Chestnut street, Philadelphia. the purpose of the committee is to encourage the study of political economy in its relations to wages and to stimulate interest in American politics among the rising gener ation. Essays must not exceed one thou sand words in length and manuscripts must be in the hands of the committee on or before October 20 There never has been a day in th history of tobacco raising in Lan caster county that as much tobacco was cut as on October 5th. This was especially the case in the lower part of the county, where was much more tobacco standing than in the northern part. The great activity was owing to the fact that the farm ers were unable to do anything for five days last week on account of the heavy rains that fell from Mon day to Friday.

The fear is now that the frost may damage the outstand- ng crops. Helpers are being offer ed $3.00 per day and board. The county crop is estimated at 000. After a futile attempt to extin guish the fire which has been raging in the Kaska workings near Middle- port it has been decided to drown out the same, and preparations are being made for the pouring of wa- ter into the workings. It is esti mated that it will take six weeks to flood the workings, and that the col liery will be closed down for several months.
