Avoid Sedative Cough Medicines. If you want to contribute directly to the occurrence of capillary bronchitis and pneumonia use cough medicines that contain codine, morphine, heroin and j other sedatives when you have a cough j or cold. An expectorant like Chamber- i lain’s Cough Remedy is what is needed. ! That cleans out the culture beds or breed- J ing places for the germs of pneumonia ! and other germ diseases. That is why j pneumonia never results from a cold when Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy is used. It has a world wide reputation for its cures. It contains no morphine or other sedative.

We learn that for some time past petty j ' thieving has been perpetrated in our | I neighboring town, Gracehnm. Corn has : I been missed from cribs, cellars have been i j entered, meat missed from smoke houses i and chickens from a number of flocks have mysteriously disappeared. Last Tuesday morning between 5 and 0 o’chck when Mrs. John Joy arose she went to a window and looking toward the barn saw a man at the bran bin Ailing a sack with bran. Mr. Joy was quickly notified and after securing a gun fired several shots at the thief, who was beat ing a hasty retreat. Feeling sure that he knew the man at the feed box, Mr. Joy swore out a warrant for the arrest of James Connor, a citizen of the town, the writ being served Friday by constable Clarence Lidie. Connor was brought to Thurmont and taken to Frederick on the 3 o’clock car and given a hearing before Justice Dennis who held him in the sum of .SIOO for his appearance at court. The citizens of the town have become very much alarmed, fearing that at any time their property will be entered and valuables carried away. Whether one person has been doing all the thieving or whether an organized band has been at work is not known, but at the present time it is said to be extremely dangerous for anyone to be found prowling around other people’s premises in that town. Waganian Will Receive a Rig .Majority in Washington County. Charles D. Wagaman, the Republican candidate for Congress from the Sixth Congressional District, will receive on November sth the largest majority from Washington county ever given a Con gressional candidate and unless all indi cations fail, he will sweep this district. At no time was sentiment so favorable to the election of Mr. Wagaman as at present and his popularity increases as election day approaches. Voters, with out reference to their sentiments on Na tional issues, are supporting the Repub lic an candidate and urging his election with growing enthusiasm. The reason for this is plainly evident. He is the embodiment of these qualities that make a great statesman and he is essentially the peoples' candidate. Every thing that he does is, as far as possible, fit and complete. He aspires to place 1 and preferment, not for the mere exer cise of political power, and still less for pleasurable indulgences, but for occasions to serve his country. This is the type of man that w’e want to represent us in Congress. It is astonishing when one learns of the real sentiment for Wagaman in his own county. People every day are de claring their intention to cast their vote for him. And it should be understood that these declarations come from men who have been of a political faith difl'er ent from that of the republican party. Democrats are constantly expressing their intention in Washington County to support him. One can hear it talked on the streets, in the workshops, on the railroads, on the farms, in the rural dis tricts. All this largely by reason of Mr. Wag aman’s personal popularity and the esteem in which he is held by his fellow citizens, and also by reason of his firm and substantial views on public questions, especially the tarilf and the farm. The farmers in Washington county are especially interested in Mr. Wagaman. Besides being an able lawyer he is also a farmer of the first type owning and personally conducting a farm. The farm j ers recognize that his views on the prob -1 lerns which confronts them are not vis ionary but are worked out and framed from personal observation and practical experience. i This class of people appreciates this | fact and they are frank and out spoken I in their determination to stand by him | in this campaign. The republicans of Washington county ' irrespective of their intentions as to the ; presidential candidates are a unit in their 1 support of Mr. Wagaman. The large vote that he will receive i from personal friends of the opposite party, added to the solid vote of the Re publican party, will give him Washington county by an extraordinary majority as stated above.—Hagerstown Morning Herald.

COL. ROOSEVELT SHOT. Receives Bullet From 38-Cnli bre (Jim at Milwaukee. Assassin raptured, Admits j Shooting; Now in Prison. ' Col. Theodore Roosevelt, Progressive j candidate for President of the United j States, was shot but not seriously wound ' ed Monday evening, October 14th, as he , was leaving the Gilpatrick Hotel for the Auditorium hall in Milwaukee. The wound at first was not thought to be serious and the Colonel went on to the hall and began his speech after he had seen his assailant arrested and taken to the police station. For’a time the Colo- | nel did not know he was hit, and after his attention had been pointed to the bul let hole in his overcoat and after he had withdrawn his hand covered with blood, he made light of the matter. An examination was made at the Au ditorium, and his physicians urged him to go to a hospital, but he insisted on making his address and spoke for an hour and a quarter and only showed slight I signs of weakness from loss of blood. Col. Roosevelt’s life probably was sav ed by a manuscript of the speech which he delivered that night. His assailant was prevented from fir- j ing a second shot by Albert H. Martin, | one of the Colonel’s secretaries, who i leaped from an automobile onto the man’s shoulders and bore him to the ground. i The crowd cried kill him, but the Colo nel ask that the assassin be not hurt. At police headquarters the man who did the shooting gave his name as John Schrank, and admitted that he had been following the ex-President for many days in hope of getting a chance to kill him. Schrank came from Bavaria with his parents when 9 years old, and has re ■ently been a saloonkeeper in New York ■it;., he now being 36 yearsold. He says ih has been personally acquainted with loosevelt ever since he was police com aissioner of New York. Schrenk gives the following reason for eeking Roosevelt’s life: “My knowledge of history, gained by much reading, convinced me that Roose- , veil was following a grand undertaking. 1 was convinced that if he was defeated at the fall election he would again cry ‘Thief!’ and that his action would plunge ' the country into a bloody civil war. 1 deemed it my duty to put him out of the I way. Soon after 1 had a dream in which former President McKinley appeared to J me. 1 was told by McKinley in this dream that it was not Czolgoscz who murdered him, but Roosevelt. McKinley ' in this dream, told me that his blood was on Roosevelt’s hand, and that Roosevelt | had killed him so that he might become President.” The following report is given in Wed- I nesday morning papers regarding the condition of Col. Roosevelt: Mercy Hospital, Chicago, Oct 15. The physicians, after making an X-ray photo graph of Colonel Roosevelt, announced that the bullet had entered the right breast, to the right of and one inch be low the level of the right nipple. “The wound is a simple one, but dan gerous because of the possibility of blood poisoning. Colonel Roosevelt has a phe- ’ nornenal development of the chest. It is largely due to the fact that he is a phys ical marvel that he was not fatally wound ed. The gun was a foul one and the bul let passed through too many substances before entered his body for fear of blood blood poisoning not to be imminent. “The range of the bullet, which was of 38 calibre, W'as upward and inward, a ! distance of four inches on the chest wall. The missile entered above the upper bor der of the liver, less than inch below the lower border of the lungs. “If the bullet had penetrated either the liver or lung, or had entered the same point on the left side, it would probably have been fatal. “It was not deemed necessary by the physicians at Mercy Hospital to remove the bullet now, but a careful watch will be kept for septic conditions.” - - I Aged Veteran Dead. Mr. David H. Kolb, chief engineer of ; I the Independent Engine Company, of Frederick, for 36 years, died Saturday evening at 6.30 o’clock at his home on West Church street, of heart failure, at the age of 81 years, 1 month and 18 days. Mr. Kolb was a Civil War veteran, and was a second lieutenant in the Potomac Home Brigade, Company I, captained by Mr. Walter Saunders. Mr. Kolb will be buried with the flag which was carried , by the company during the war. He is ! the last of the commissioned officers of Company I, and it was decided that the flag should be buried with the last com missioned officer. The flag was carried by the Independ ent rifle team, which was instituted be fore the war. Just before the outbreak of the war this flag was taken to the barracks at the Maryland School for the Deaf and placed there, The barracks was used as an arsenal by the State. The three companies of Frederick, the Inde pendent Rifle team, the Junior team and the United team alternated in guarding the barracks. Mr. P. M. Eader, corporal of the com ■ pany; Mr. John White, corporal, and Mi. James Ely, musician, are the only sur viving members of the company in Fred erick. During the war Mr. Kolb engaged in about seven battles, the last of which was at Gettysburg. A Marvelous Escape. “My little boy had a marvelous escape” writes P. F. Bastiams of Prince Albert, 1 Cape of Good Hope. “It occurred in the ’ middle of the night. He got a very severe attack of croup. As luck would have it, I had a large bottle of Chamberlain’s ■ j Cough Remedy in the house. After fol | lowing the directions for an hour and i | twenty minutes he was through all dan • ger.

It’s a “1912 Ford” fitted with electric lights, and is in other ways different from other Ford cars in town. Mr. M. L. Creager brought Dr. Sefton and the car from Philadelphia via York, and had a thrilling experience running through a rain and wind storm from York to Gettysburg. The car came I through in good condition, and we dare say Doc is the happiest man in town Tunning an automobile. It was predicted he and the car would be found up a pole, but so far he has remained on the ground. Receiving Many Hawk Heads. The law passed at the last session of the legislature putting a bounty on all hawks, foxes, weasels, etc., killed, is re sponsible for 152 hawks, 1 fox and 4 wea sels having been brought to Justice Jos. C. Gernand’s office. If the same amount is taken to other Justices throughout the districts in which the law applies, the county will have a neat little sum to pay out January Ist of each year. No pro vision was made in the tax levy this year for this expense, hence those who have killed any of the above must wait until January 1, 1914, before they can collect. Married. On Tuesday evening of this week, Mr. Harry Eyler, son of Mr. and Mrs. Chas. A. Eyler of this place, and Miss Ruth Eigenbrode, youngest daughter of Mr. Jacob Eigenbrode, also of Thurrnont, were united in marriage by Rev. Robert Huebener at his residence in Graceham. The wedding was quiet. A reception was held at the home of the groom .during the evening. Notice. On Sunday. October 27th, Rev. P. E. Heimer, will preach in Trinity Reformed church, this place, morning and evening, and at Apples church in the afternoon. Chronic Dyspepsia.
