Schrank Pleads Guilty to At
tempted Murder Charge, But
prosecutor Asks Inquiry.
MT .WAUKEE. WIS.. Nov. 12. John
c, mk, who attempted the assasslna
’~n Theodore Roosevelt on the night
ectober 14, today pleaded guilty to a
charge of attempted murder.
Th-, hearing was held before Judge
Bacu.-. rhe judge refused to accept
,’ie plea before he heard a report on
;he man’s sanity. Court was adjourn
ed until the afternoon, in order that
rlie examination might be made.
That the trial would be a mere for
n.dlty save for the appointment of a
commission to test Schrank's sanity,
the statement of District Attorney
Zabel before the hearing opened.
am convinced that Schrank is a
vanmolac," said Zabel. "In my talks
n ith him the evident self-satisfaction
»-ith which his deeds and the complai
sance with which he regards his ulti
mate fate leaves no doubt in my mind
as to his lack of sanity.”
Didn’t Wish To KMi.
The proceedings in court were, per
•nnctory. They lasted about ten min
utes. Schrank was led before Judge
Backus and the charge was read to
him.. He was asked to stand up.
•John Schrank,” said the judge, "you
are charged with assault with intent to
.kill Theodore Roosevelt. Are you guil
ty or not guilty ?"
• j wish to plead guilty,” the prisoner
replied. "In explanation, I wish to say
that I did not mean to kill Mr. Roose
velt, but merely to wound him. I shot
him as a warning that two terms of
president of the United States were
enough. I was not trying to hurt the
candidate of a third party for president,
as I believe a third party has a right to
enter the field. I shot to warn Citi
zen Roosevelt that two terms as presi
dent were enough, and to force him to
desist from his attempt to seize an
honor never before granted an Ameri
can citizen. That is all, your honor.”
Schrank spoke- as a man who had
carefully written out what he had to
say and memorized it.
District Attorney Zabel rose, after
Schrank had concluded.
State Asks Inquiry.
"Your honor,” he said, “the district
attorney believes this man to_be a par
anoiac. and would not be a party to
sending a man needing mental treat
ment to the state prison. I therefore
would submit that the state wishes to
appoint a commission of medical ex
perts to decide the matter of the de
fendant’s sanity before proceeding fur
ther. I therefore ask for an adjourn
i ment.* »
1 The court announced that it would I
■ this afternoon name a committee of i
’live alienists to examine Schrank. It is i
expected the examination will last for
-. two days.
Schrank was the least interested man
in the court room as the hearing be- !
gan. He« was carefully, dressed. Hei
was heavily guarded as he was taken i
to the court roofn, for fear a. demon
stration might be made against him.
A crowd of curious persons gathered
at the court, hundreds tried to force
their way into trfe room, but were re
strained by deputies. ’

IHPHLITE IS NEW
FUD OF PAUISMNS
Malady Seems To Be Merely
Appendicitis in New. High-
Sounding Dress.
PARIS, Nov. 12.—Paris will have its
fashion, whether it be in frocks, frills
or fancies. Its latest craze us a new
malady named Typhlite. This ailment
is not really of modern invention, for it
was known to our forefathers. It had
its vogue, it appears, in the early Na
poleonic period, but was lost sight of
until recently. Meantime, appendicitis
has held sway, and no properly regu
lated home has been without it. To
have arrived at middle age minus an
Inflammation of the appendix is, in
these days, to be beyond the pale of
“swaggerdom.” But now a new mala
dy a la mode has made its reappear
ane, and if you have not had typhlite—
well, it is far better to say you have.
Sounds smart, you know.
As to what this new ailment exactly
is, a recent discussion thereon by the
eminent sawbones Doyen, Labbe. Cour
tellemont, Guelpa and others gave the
information that its treatment is prac
tically the same that would be em
ployed for the new dethroned king ap
pendicitis. Perhaps Docteur Cade’s
opinion—that “the distinction as be
tween appendicitis and typhlite is more
or less theoretic”—about sums up the
situation. It would seem that typhlite
is but the old wolf in more modern ap
parel.
COMMISSION FORM’S
DEFEAT FORECAST IN
SAVANNAH ELECTION
SAVANNAH, GA., Nov. 12.—Early
indications point to the defeat of the
commission form of government for Sa
vannah. The political element is align
ed solidly against it. A considerable
vote is being polled.
Mayor George Tledeman, who em
braced commission government in his
last campaign for re-election, -and who
ran on a promise to give the people an
opportunity to vote on the subject, is
out in a card denouncing the proposed
bill as unsuitable. Both sides, are claim
ing a victory.
There is as much activity at the polk
as there was at the general election, a
week ago. Many of the best people fa
vor the change, but they are apparently
not in sufficient number to carry their
point. Advocates of the measure claim
that the afternoon vote will be in theii
favor.

IN BLOTCHES
On Face. Small, Red and Hard. Al
so on Neck and Chest. Itching
Intense. Pain and Burning. Cuti
cura Soap and Ointment Cured.
>lorrison, Tenn.— “For one year I suf
fered from a very severe attack of acne
or pimples, accompanied by eczema. It
S first showed itself by the
formation of small red.
rather hard pimples which
were not only disfiguring to
the face, but were painful.
They also appeared on my
neck and chest. Thiir itch
ing was often so intense as
to cause insomnia, and they
very often caused pain and
burning. I tried several so called ’sure
cure’ remedies, but they did little or no
good. Several months ago I heard of Cuti
cura Soap and Ointment and wrote for a
sample.
"I found them so soothing that I at
once purchased a twenty-five cent cake of
Cuticura Soap, and a fifty- cent box of
Cuticura Ointment. I used the Cuticura
Boap and Ointment as follows: First open
some of the pimples, bathe with warm
water and Cuticura Soap, dry and smear
lightly with Cuticura Ointment. Let this
remain on for about five or ten minutes,
then wash off with hot water and Cuticura
Soap. After using them for about a month,
all of the itching and the pimples had en
tirely disappeared.” (Signed) John Finger.

POSTMASTER, WHO
SERVED UNDER SIX
PRESIDENTS, DEAD
HOME. GA., Nov. 12.—For 29 years
the postmaster at Silver Creek. J. B.
Porter, a pioneer citizen of Floyd coun
ty, is dead. His funeral is said to be
the largest attended ever held in the
county. ,
Mr. Porter was appointed postmaster
at Silver Creek in 1883 by President
Arthur, regardless of the fact that he
was a Democrat. He has been reap
pointed time and time again. It is
probable that in point of service he
was the oldest postmaster in the state.
He served under six presidents, through
teeven administrations.

SNEAD TRIAL CALLED
DESPITE EFFORTS OF
DEFENSE FOR DELAY
FORT WORTH, TEXAS. Nov. 12.
The second trial of John B. Snead,
charged with the murder of Captain A.
G. Boyce on January- 13 last, because
Boyce’s son eloped with Mrs. Snead,
was called in the Potter county crimi
nal court today.
An attempt had been made yester
day by the defense to secure a post
ponement on the ground that important
witnesses were absent, but the motion
was overruled.
With the beginning of today’s trial is
reopened’ a scandal which has cost two
lives. On September 14 last Snead, who
is a wealthy banket and ranchman,
waylaid Alfred Boyce, son of Captain
A. G. Boyce, and shot him in front of
the Methodist church in Amarillo.
Snead has already been tried once for
the murder of the elder Boyce, but the
jury in the first case disagreed and the
defendant was released on bail. It is
said his wife will take the stand
against him.
Joseph A. Rymski.
The funeral of Joseph A. Rymski wiii
be held at Greenberg & Bond’s chapel
this afternoon at 2:30 o’clock. Rev. Dr.
Nussbaum conducting the services. In
