(Special to The Evening News)
SPOKANE, Nov. 6. A hunger
strike, similar to that resorted to by
the suffragettes of England, began
with the two hundred lnductrlal
Workers in jail this morning. They
were convicted of dicorderly conduct
for street speaking, and given bread
and water twice daily because they
refused to work. This is the first
hunger strike ever made in the Unit
ed States, and tho strikers declare
they will 'not eat until given sub
stantial food. It 1b thought that the
authorities may try,a stomach pump
if found necessary.
Louis Scamenel weakened in his
resolution of abstinence, and volun
teered to work for food, whereupon
he was kicked about his cell by his
companions and denounced as a shirk
vand traitor.
Habeas corpus proceedings are to
be started in the remainder of the
cases, according to Viccnt St. John,
Chicago, counsel of the Workers.
Three damage stilts have already
been started by them against the
city. ,
There were fewer arrests made
this morning, but the police are
showing uo signs of relenting.

NAlROt.I,!ov. 6. (By Staff Cor

health. There was no ground what
ever for the rumor announcing the
Colonel's death. Roosevelt Is today

While I knew yesterday to prac

absent from camp made It Impossi

until today, when I got commun

"Why, I have never doubted," de

"Dr. A. T. Still, who founded
Osteopathy, has tho distinction also
of guiding the profession In its early

that the day would como when drugs
would no longer be taken by human

of Dr. Still and afterwards he began
