st. Petersburg. Jan. 20.-Striking
workmen, their ranks swelled by num-
bers of sympathizers, have been
marching. The employers again de-
clared they would not concede to the
strikers demands, and at once pro-
cessions began forming. Similar dem
onstrations are reported from other
cities. 1t is feared should the parad-
ing continue rioting will result.
Troops have been sent TO Putiloff
works to protect them.
As the afternoon progressed the
strikers became more bold. They
broke into several factories and the
state printing works, and forced the
workef1 to join Them. The police adj
vised the manager to allow the print
ers to quit

Car Had Narrow Escane.

st. Petersburg, Jan. 20.-Additional
particulars show the emperor had a
miraculous escape. There is no longer
any doubt the missiles came from a
gun ON the bourse battery which was
loaded with grape. Some bullets ac-
tually struck the chapel in which the
emperor was standing, cut the staff
of one of the standards and riddled
the basement windows of the palace,
killing one policeman outright and
wounding an officer and three ma
rines. Had the gun been aimed lit
tie lower the charge of grape might
have wiped out the whole Romanoff
dynasty. Everything on the surface
seems to indicate the existence of a
deep laid plot against the emperor,
in which artillery men were enlisted.
Workers on the left side of the
Neva are joining the strikers. 1t is

To Recognize osteoputhy.

Salem, Jan. Ex-senator Brownell
has introduced a bill to regulate and
license The practice of osteopathy-to
give it official recognition as a school
of medicine.
Two years ago Senator Brownell in
troduced the same measure in the
senate. The bill met with instant op
position from physicians in the reg
ular school. The measure was at
tackled by the judiciary committee, to
which 1t was referred, but a majority
reported favorably. Senator Pierce,
still meniber of the legislature,
brought in a minority and adverse
report There followed a debate on
the floor of the senate in which much
feeling was manifested, but the bill
was killed by action being postponed.
Now Senator Brownell brings forward
the same bill, and while 1t is done by
request, there is every reason to be-
iieve he will Support the bill, and that
heated debate will follow, as ply
Sicians who are members of the legis-
lature will work against it.
.zThe bill provides FOR a state board
of osteopathic examiners which shall
hold examinations twice a year The
irtent of the bin is to recognize the
practice of osteopathy.
Board of Health Bill Passes.
la A
municipal boards of health has passed
the senate.
1t is provided by the bill that the
county judge and commissioners and
the mayor and common council of
each incorporated city, except where
a regularly constituted board of health
exists, shall constitute board of
city, respectively.
The duties of the board OF health
as so constituted will be practically
that OF boards now established in
stamping out disease and taking ac-
ton to prevent the spread of con-
tagious diseases. A secretary is to be
elected who shall be a graduate ply
sician and act as health officer, to
receive salary of Y cents per capi-
ia up to and including $4,000 people.
Nothing is to prevent incorporated
cities from establishing any desired
salary.
These county boards of health are
to be required to make detailed re-
ports to the state board of health and
keep in touch with the state organi-
zation. It is argued that such law

washington, Jan. Ex-senator
Smoot took the stand in his own be-
half this morning. He stated he was
born in Salt Lake January 10, 1852,
of Abram and Anna X. Smoot both
Mormons, and the latter a plural
wife. He was married September II,
NJ. Elders, by whom he had six child
ren. Had no other wife, and had CO.
habited with no other woman. When
IS he took the endowment ceremony
at his fathers urgent request. Had
never taken it since, and could not, if
he would. give the details
He denied there is anything in the
endowment obligation about wen
geance,' and was surprised that such
statements should have been made,
as Joseph Smith formulated the obli-
cation and it had never been chang
ed, and Smith would hardly call for
vengeance on account of his death
when still alive.
In 1872 Smoot moved to Provo,
Utah where he has lived ever since.
He was counsellor to President Smith
for five years. and in 1900 became an
apostle. 81 took no oath as such"
he declared, "and when l later took
the oath as United States senator
there was no mental reservation. and
there has been nothing in my past to
hamper my work here"
Up to 1884 he had been a demo-
crat but reading and thinking con-
verted them into republicanism.
