The ceremony was simple but digni fled and was attended by all the prom inent men of the revolutionary party. The first official act of Dr. Sun was to change the Chinese calendar. He made New Year's day the first day of his presidency, thus marking the commencement of a new era and mak ing the beginning of the Chinese yea: henceforth on the same day as in most other countries of the world. Accompanied by a numerous suite and protected by a strong bodyguard Dr. Sun Yat Sen left Shanghai in a special train for Nanking. The trip was made without incident except fcr the enthusiasm of the greeting accord- ed to the new president at all the principal stations. Dr. Sun reached the new Chinese capital at 5:30 p. m., and was greeted with loud cheers. Many prominent men among the revolutionaries met him at the station and accompanied him to the government house, the! route to which was lined by 10,000 soldiers. Whole Town Decorated. The whole town was decked in flags, the warships and mewhant vessels along the river dressed Seip and a presidential salute was fired"xom the guns of all the forts in the vicinity, Government house was reached ‘at 7 o'clock. Dr. Sun, who was dressed in a khaki uniform, on his arrivg)-held’| a@ reception which was ajrended by governors genera! and Other high of- ficials. In the andience chamber, an im- mense apartment if g0Velnment house delegates representing eighteen prov- inces of China proper took up their positions around a raised platform. ‘When Dr. Sun entered all bowed their heads. The president elect proceeded to the central platform and there he took the oath of office. Afterwards he delivered an address in which he promised to disenthrone the Manchns, to re-establish peace, to promote trade and to devote his en- tire energy to the Chinese nation and aid the Chinese people to realize their aspirations. When the Manchus had finally abdicated and peace was re- stored to the nation he would, he said, resign his provisional office. President Sun’s proposed cabinet comprises Li Huen Yeng, Huang Sing and Dr. Wu Ting Fang, all of whom are in the front rank of the reform movement. REGIMENT JOINS REBELS Believed Other imperialist Troops Will Do Likewise. Tientsin, Jan. 3.—A regiment of im- perial troops stationed at Lanchow, capital of the province of Kwangsu, have joined the republicans and ru- Mors are heard that practically the entire imperial army in that section will follow their exampie. This is taken as a sign that the disintegration of the Manchu dynasty is inevitable. The army in Kwangsu, one of the northern provinces that has always been most loyal to Peking, will be in @ position to cooperate effectively with the republicans in the south should they decide to move upon Peking. Chinese Emperor Fleeing. St. Petersburg, Jan. 3—The dow- ager empress and the seven-year-old emperor of China are fleeing toward Zhikke, on the Mongolian frontier, ac- cording to dispatches from Peking. Both are in disguise. It is believed here that they intend to place them- selves under Russian protection. TWO THOUSAND ON STRIKE Employes of Fifty New York Laun- dries Go Out. New York, Jan. 3—Some 2,000 or more laundry workers went on strike for increased wages and a nine-hour working day and the employers say that before they will give in New York will have to wash its own clothes or buy new linen. Employes in fifty steam and hand laundries are affected. Superior Physician Arrested. Superior, Wis., Jan. 3—Dr. J. G. Barnesdale, a ptominent Superior phy- sician, and Mrs. Geotge Young, a mid- .| Wife, were arrested here charged with ‘| Pesponsibility for the death of Miss Liasie Carlin at the Young home on Nov. 27. Mrs. Young was asvaigned | end after pleading not guilty was held fm jail in defauk of $1,000 bail. ok presidential candidates in favor of Theodore Roosevelt or ex-Senator Al- bert J. Beveridge. The governor had prepared a speech to this effect to be delivered in intro- ducing Senator La Follette here, but im view of the senator missing his train he authorized the use of the speech as a statement of his views. Governor Osborne criticised Senator La Follette as having taken up “those things which might be termed popular that contained the least danger to himself,” and frankly said that he did not believe that the senator could be | mated. As between Le Follette and Mr. Taft he said he was for Taft. Governor | Osborne further said: “The Senator La Follette style of campaign tends to arouse the pas- sions of the people and makes for a condition of public intolerance which is always worse than personal or in- dividual intolerance, because it has so much more might as a force. Must Have Big Business. | “In Senator La Follette’s speeches | amd writings—and in this connection let me say that I have taken and en- joyed ‘La Follette’s Weekly,’ and I am a subscriber to it mow—I do not think he distinguishes between hon- est men in big business and dishonest men. “We have got to have big business in this country, if we are to compete in the manufactures and transactions of the world. But big business should not be permitted to oppress the peo- phere se “I have noticed also that while Sen- ator La Follette did great work in rid- ding Wisconsin of corrupt railroad domination he has never said anything against brewery domination in that state. Really, as between the two, I should prefer railroad domination. However, it was good politics to fight the railroads in Wisconsin, but it would not have gotten Senator La Fol- Jette anywhere probably if he had | fought the brewery owned saloons. “What I wish to make clear about this statement is that the senator has taken up those things which might be termed popular and that con- tained the least danger to himself. Now this may be entirely unfair, but T have thonght it and do think it still.” TURKEY IS GIVEN WARNING Powers Will Intervene Unless Internal Disorders Cease. Constantinople, Jan. 3.—Disorders in Macedonia and Ajbania have be- sador Lowther conveyed a _ veiled SIR GERARD A. LOWTHER. threat to the grand vizier that the pow- ers would interfere in Turkey's inter- mationa! affairs unless the outbreaks are suppressed. Macedonians have been harassing Turkish troops on the frontier and it is believed they are only waiting for the government to become hard pressed in Tripoli before instituting a general rebellion. Feudist Murders Physician. Charleston, W. Va., Jan. 3.—Dr. Ed- win O. Thornhill, aged thirty-five, well known physician and business man of the southern section of West Virginia, was shot and killed by Willis Hatfield, son of the feudist, Devil Anse Hatfield, im a drug store at Mullens.

MIKE DAVIS BEHIND BARS Notorious Yegg implicated in Several Minnesota Cases an Inmate of Michigan Penitentiary. Mike Davis, the notorious yegg who escaped the raid of private detec- tives and state deputies when an attempt was made June 7 last to rob and burn the postoffice and general store at Puposky, was cap tured Dec. 13 at Durand, Mich., follow- ing the robbery three days previously of a postoffice and general store at Games, Mich. He was convicted along with a pal named Howard, and is now serving an indeterminate sen- tence of seven and a half to fifteen years in the Michigan branch state prison at Marquette. Information to this effect has been made public by the St. Paul office of the Pinkerton National Detective agency. It was in connection with aleged complicity in the Puposky affair that Mayor D. T. Dumas of Cass Lake was arrested and convicted later at a trial in Bemidji, information against him having been filed by C. E. Keller, state fire marshal, who alleged he was one of a ring in Northern Min- nesota which had been engaged in the burglarizing of stores, etc., and the | burning of property to obtain the in- MRS. EBERHART UNDER KNIFE Wife of Minnesota Governor Stricken With Appendicitis. Mrs. Adolph O. Eberhart, wife of the governor, was operated on for appen- dicitis at the Swedish hospital in Min- neapolis by . N. H. Scheldrup. While vi ng friends in Minneap- olis, Mrs. Eberhart began to suffer acute pains. This being her second attack Governor Eberhart had her taken at once to the hospital Dr. Scheldrup said: “Mrs. Eber- hart’s condition is highly satisfactory. The operation seems to have been suc- cessful, as she is resting easily. She has a strong constitution and her pulse at present is strong.” “Everything is as satisfactory as could be expected under the circum- stances and we look for her complete recovery. She will probably be con- fined to the hospital for two weeks or more,” said the hospita] physician. RAILROAD HELD TO BLAME Responsible for Wreck at Odessa. which investigated the Odessa wreck holds the St. Paul road responsible for the death of the ten persons on ac- count of a defective semaphore at Odessa and in not enforcing its rules for the protection of passengers.

The record in the appeal of the Chicago, Milwaukee and St. Paul rail- road from the judgment of the su- preme court of Minnesota in the rail- road's case against the city of Min- neapolis growing out of the consti uc- tion of a bridge over the canal be- tween Lake of the Isles and Lake Calhoun, has been docketed in the supreme court of the United States. The case started in the Fourth ju- dicial district for Hennepin county on an agreed statement of the facts and was appealed to the supreme court of the state, where the city won by a divided court, and is now before the federal supreme court on a writ of error to the highest court of Minne- sota. Judge Simpson wrote the opin- jon of the court, but a dissenting opinion was written by Judge Start. The question is whether the city or the railroad shall bear the full ex- pense of constructing the bridge across the canal to carry the railroad tracks which now rest on an embank- ment, the city requiring a certain type of architecture in the bridge, more expensive than the type usually constructed by the railroads.

IMPERILS LIFE FOR OTHERS Domestic Arouses Inmates of Burning House at Hibbing. The two-story frame dwelling at Hibbing occupied by R. W. Hitchcock, editor of the Hibbing Tribune, and Robert Stratton, caught fire at 2 o’clock in the morning and might have been destroyed along with a loss of life, but for the heroic action of Miss | Ness, a domestic, who risked her life to arouse the other inmates. She was awakened by the smoke which filled the upper portion of the house and hastily went from room to room through the suffocating atmosphere arousing every one. She was nearly overcome. DECIDES AGAINST LAYMEN Attorney General Refuses to Prosecute St. Paul Mayor. George T. Simpson closed his off- eal carreer as attorney general of this state by sending a letter to Frank J.
