SHOOTS ALL WHO INTERFERE
Russian Terrorist Kills Governor and
Two Policemen, Wounds Another
and Commits Suieide-vietim
Red Cross Commissioner.

PENSEA, Russia, Feb. SIS. A.
Alexandrovisky, governor OF Pensea,
was shot and killed by a young man
as he was leaving the theatre last
night, In desperate attempt to es-
cape the assassin also killed Assistant
Chief of Police and a policeman and
wounded the manager of the theatre.
Before the terrorist could be captured
he shot himself and during the night
died in a hospital without being iden-
titled. The bullets which he used in
his revolver were discovered to be
poisoned.
NJ. Alexandrovisky, who was well
known as chief commissioner Of the
Red Cross in the field during the war
between Russia and Japan, had just
stepped out Of the door of the theater
when youth pushed his way through
the crowd and shot him in the neck.
He fell dead on the spot. The assist
ant chief of police, who was standing
near the entrance, tried to draw his
revolver, but was shot dead by the
terrorist. Seeing 1t was impossible to
get through the crowds outside the
building, the murderer dashed into the
theater, firing wildly. The manager
attempted to grapple with him, and the
murdered fired at him, but the shot
missed the manager and killed a po-
liceman. In second attempt to cap
ture the assassin, the manager was
severely wounded.
The terrorist fled through what he
believed to be one of the exits, bI
found himself in the ladies' cloakroom'
An attendant, realizing the situation
pointed to some stairs as a means OF
egress, and as soon as the assassin dis
appeared, locked the door behind him.
The stairs, however, led to loft and
the murdered subsequently was found
unconscious from bullet wound, from
which he died in the hospital.

Ant.Pass Bill Meets Untimely
End at Hands Of SoIons.
v0TE0N MEASURE VERY CLOSE
Senate Turns Down Measure by Small
est Margin of Session, Members
Standing Fifteen to Fourteen
in les Favor.

SALEM, Ore. Feb. S.-The Senate
went on record this morning against
the anti-pass bill adopted by the peo-
pie last year, but was was harmless
owing to the absence of an enacting
clause. 1t was lost by one vote.
Hedges introduced the bill endeavor-
ing to line up the Senate on the ques-
tion. The Republican members dodgea
by adopting an amendment providing
passes for state officials, taking the
features from House bill 271. This
amendment kills the purpose of the
anti-pass measure. Hedges fought for
his bill an hour, objecting first to in
definite postponement, which he won,
then against amendment. AS COM
promise, Malarkey moved that the
bill be re-referred to the railroad COM
mission for a second time in order that
House bill 271 might be reported back
and adopted first, which would kill the
anti-pas bill. This was voted down.
A final vote was taken on the amend
ment, which nullifies the anti-pass
bill, stood Is to IA, the closest vote
of the session.
Those voting for the amendment:
Bailey, Beach, Bowerman, Hart, Hod-
son, Johnson, Malarkey, Mcdonald,
Miller of Marion Multi, Nottingham,
Sichel, Whealdon, Wright, Haines.
Against: Bingham, Booth, Caldwell,

ONLY ONE AsPREs.

There was a very interesting hap
peninG in the city schools a few days
ago and one which gives a good deal
of opportunity for considerable
thought.
A census was taken of all the pu-
pills of the high school on the ques-
ton, DO you ever expect to engage
in teaching or aspire to make school
teacher?" This question was pro.
pounded to every boy and girl in the
high school classes, nearly two hun,
dred in number and strange to say
out OF all that great number only one
pupil, a girl, answered that she hoped
to engage in teaching.
When asked to explain such a state
of affairs a prominent local educator
stated that there was really only one
reason for the hesitancy and monde
sire of young people to engage in one
of the noblest of all the professions,
that of teaching, and that reason
would bring about the same result in
every other profession-poor remun-
Grafton. The country over finds the
teachers almost the poorest paid
members of any profession in spite of
the vast Importance, great response
bilIties and hard labors attached to
their work. For this reason many
youths and maidens pass by an op-
portunity to engage in this profess
ion.
1t is to be hoped that the day will
speedily come when teachers are paid
as their work and efforts deserve.
