BOLD WORK OF ROBBERS. Bob PostofBce and Shoot necklessly With Revolvers. WHATCOM. Wash, April 14. Two masked outlaws held up the village of Ferndale in true Missouri style last night, shot at every man who appeared on the streets, robbed the postoffice of 1150 and succeeded In making their escape without leaving the slightest clew to their Iden tity. The outlaws made their first appearance In the postofilce. where they ordered the Postmaster to deliver to them the con tents of his till. The Postmaster refused, and while one robber with two revolvers in his hands kept him covered, the other emptied the contents of the till Into a sack. Nothing but money was taken. Four men who were In the office when the robbers came tn were compelled to leave, the robbers firing shots over their heads as they took their departure. Knowing nothing of what was going on. William Keener started to enter the of fice while the robbers were at their work. Two shots which barely missed him caused him to beat a hasty retreat. As the robbers departed they shot Into a saloon where five men were looking through a window into the street. The bullet flattened out agalnct an Iron strip across It without doing any damage. The officers returned from Ferndale to day without being able to get any trace of the robbers or a description which tal lied from any two citizens. Career of Terrorising; Escape. VANCOUVER. B. C April 14. Escaped Convicts Clark and Jones, who are trying the Tracy act on this cade of the line, hjve bad records in the States. Clark's career with the Vancouver police began In VSX. He drifted here because Seattle had become too warm for his leader. Tommy Wilton, and two others of the same gang. Bruce Crelghton and Jack McAulIff. Clark was then known as Joe King. He Is believed to have robbed Dr. --itoland D, Grant's residence In Portland and was then associated with Bruce Crelghton. The latter, according to Chief North's recollection, was, about three years ago. shortly after being released from Westminster Jail, killed while' being arrested In the south. Clark Is known to be one of the clever est cracksmen as well as one of the most accomplished all-round criminals on the Coast. That he will not hesitate at all to use the guns which he now has. should opportunity be afforded. Is something the police say can be relied -upon with the utmost certainty. SHOT, AND MAY DIE.

Slysrertoos Shootlnir of Fisherman. VANCOUVER. B. O. April 14. Abbott street, at the water front, was the scene of a most serious shooting affray last night. As a result. Frank Rogers, for merly president of the British Columbia Fishermen's Union, lies In the City Hos pital In a critical condition from a bullet wound In the abdomen received In the wild fusillade of shots which swept the streets for a few moments. About USO o'clock a succession of sharp reports startled the straggling passers-by and a rush of men from the direction of the railway tracks waa quickly fol lowed by the cry that Rogers had been shot. Several of those nearest the scene ran to the aid of the wounded man. and he was taken to the hospital by Police Officer Brown, who was quickly called to the place. Investigation elicited nothing that was satisfactory, especially as to who was re sponsible for the shooting. The police are Investigating, but so far can only give the stereotyped answer.

For sale 11 ilmrHtfi SENATOR FOSTER TO STAY Continued from Ttrrt Far.) rewarded for personal service. Foster his given everything to the Ankeny forces. He and hii friends disclaim the responsl Tjillty for the appointments, and Insist that If any political debts existed they have all been paid. Wilson Will rt a Figure. The Foster men expect a fight from Wilson. They realize the former Spokane man is bitter against the Senator and holds him largely responsible for the fsct that Wilson was not returned to the Senate. Wilson has always claimed that Foster had agreed to tie up with him, while Foster Insists that Wilson was the first to break faith, and as a consequence be was released. But whatever may be the true situation, Wilson Is expected to make a bitter fight. His friends are now stirring up trouble in Pierce County for Foster, and will continue to do so. They are endeavoring to prevent an under standing between Foster and Hamilton In the hope of splitting the dominant Pierce County faction. Aside from the Wilson opposition. Fos ter men declare they should have no trouble. In spite of Foster's dilatory tactics when Ankeny wanted a combina tion. Foster's friends insist the WaUa Walls Senator owes him support in re turn for what he delivered. Then, too, Foster men want to gain something by Foster's work In the Senate as well as by the appointments he has made. The silent opposition of the .state press HELPED IN UPBUILD ING LANE COUNTY. . ALBANY, Or., April 1. Spe cial.) John Bryant, whose funeral Kcond In Albany on April . was one of tlx early pioneers of Oregon, having crossed the plains with aa cx team la 1SS2. Mr. Bryant was bom In Virginia. October 3, 1817. When yet a boy he moved to Mis souri. Where he married Luclnda Bllyeu In 1847. After the loct journey tq Oregon. Mr. Bryant set tled on a donation land claim tn Jordan Valley. Linn County, where for 49 yeara he resided. A few yeara aro. Mr. Bryant moved with hla aged wife to Albany, where he spent his last days with his child ren. John Bryant waa a mem ber of the lower house of the Oregon Legislature In 1805 and belonged to the Masonic fra ternity. Ha Is aurvlved by a wife and four children. The children are: H. Bryant, of Albany; Mrs. T. P. Goodman, of 8tayton: Mrs. A. T. McCully. of Ilalsey; Mrs. A. J. Ehelton, of Condon. is acknowledged to have injured Foster. No matter what the senior Senator has accomplished, he has been Ignored by the Washington press. He has'- never been given credit for any good1 'work, and Cushman has claimed on the stump that he accomplished legislation he did not even know had been passed until he read of It In the records. Amendments made to appropriation acts, for example. In the Senate have generally been credited to Cushman. never to Foster. This has hurt ' Foster immeasurably, for the people of the state do not know what the senior Senator has done, and since he has no organs through which to reply. It Is probable the people never will know many things. But a story published In The Oregonlan a few days ago showing the record of Foster, In bills Introduced and passed and comparing this with the rec ords of other Senators, is now being used to advantage. This record shows Foster in four years actually passed more legis lation than all other Senators from this state combined. On top of this. Foster's friends are- preparing a statement of appropriitlons secured by him. What Cnshman Did. Speaking of appropriations, Foster's friends are ready to spring a surprise on Cushman, and incidentally upon Tacoma, where the facts are not known even now. After Senator Carter talked the river and harbor appropriation bill to death two years ago Cushman declared he was glad It had met this fate. In the House Cushman hid failed absolutely to gain anything for the state, but the bill went back from the Senate carrying among other appropriations nearly $500,000 for Tacoma harbor Improvements and nearly as much more for other parts of the state. This was agreed upon In confer ence, or rather most of the appropria tions stood that test, and when Senator Carter talked the bill to death he hit the state a hird blow. The appropriations which were secured at the following ses sion of Congress were almost the same that Foster had secured In the Senate after Cushman failed In the House. So when Cushman declared his Jubilant feel ing over the death of the biU, he paved the way for Foster's reply at this time. And Foster's friends are now using the story to stem the tide for him In Pierce County. It is an open question whether Foster will receive railroad support as he en deavors to straighten out his affairs. The railroads are keeping out of Sena torial politics as much as possible .now, and Foster, who bos always depended upon this support and who his been with the roads all the way through, will feel this handicap. There Is a bit of unwritten political history that Is Interesting in this con nection. After Ankeny had been elected last Winter the closest friend Ankeny had at Olympla declared his belief that B. S. Grosscup, the Northern Pacific at torney at Tacoma. would be the suc cessor to Foster. This declaration was not intended as anything more than a prediction, and was given in confidence at the time, but it served to show that a close friendship existed between Gross cup and Ankeny. It is extremely doubtful whether Gross cup would go to the Senate If he could do so; It is more doubtful whether he could. If he wanted. Not that Grosscup is not a capable man or a shrewd poli tician, but his long connection with rail road politics would be a handicap to Mta that might seriously affect his chances. It Is probable no one realizes this fact better than. Grosscup himself, and he would hardly venture upon a Sen atorial campilgn that he could not win. Among Grosscup's friends it is under stood that he would prefer above all le to serve on the Federal bench, as does bis brother, the cmcago urosscup. Some time the Stats of Washington will be divided Into two Judicial districts, and at that time it is understood Gross cup wants to be named as Federal Judge for the sew district. If this story of bis friends is true, or if the theory thit Grosscup would not undertake & Sena- i afflllstiona be true, then the Senatorial 1 prediction of Ankeny friend and ad visor falls. But It is an Interesting pre diction to recall in view of the present and future attitude of the railroads. EUGENE IS HEALTHY. And the Mayor's Report Shows Fi nances In Good Oorder. EUGENE, Or.. April 14. (Special.) The annual report of Mayor Chrlsman. made to the Council last night, was full of information of interest and a complete review of the business of the adminis trative branch of the city government. The following extracts give some of the most Important figures: The amount of outstanding warrants at the beginning of the year was C3.4S&23. The amount of warrants paid by the Treasurer during the year was C2.91S.77, together with interest on the same. There are at the present time warrants out standing tOuthe. amount of 317,631.45. Add ing to this the outstanding sewer bonds of $10,000. there Is a total Interest-bearing debt against the city of 127,631.4a. Against this the city has resources amounting' to IU.SS3.S0. leaving the net Indebtedness of the city at this time, 12,6SL55. The amount of Interest paid on warrants dur ing the year was 11267.13. From this It will be seen that the warrant indebted ness of the city has been reduced during the year 15SS4.S4. On the matter of street Improvement the Mayor says: "In repairing streets with crushed gravel, 3631H yards have been used, which was purchased under a con tract made the previous year at a total cost to the city of 1334.63. Including the cost of spreading and of repairs to the rock-crusher, or at a cost of bat a frac tion less than 30 cents per yard. In my opinion, the cost of crushed gravel to the city Is higher than the city can afford to pay, when compared with the cost of river gravel and Its durability. River gravel placed on the streets costs, about SO cents per yard, and. In my opinion, streets made with river gravel are' more durable than those made of crushed gravel." The Mayor went Into details regarding the prevalence of contagious diseases during the past year and the methods em ployed In stamping them out. The cost of quarantine officer and other Items In connection therewith from October !to February were considerable, but the re sult was that contagious diseases were entirely stamped out, and the dty Is now in the best of health. The city has grown until greater sewer facilities are desirable, and a plan has been adopted for the construction of a new sewer system for the western por tion of the city, which will probably be carried to completion during the present season. The Mayor announced the following ap pointments: Judiciary committee. Hen derson, Griffin, Wllklns; finance. Do iris. Paine, Beckwlth; streets, Matlock.

THE REGENT FIGHT IN COMPARED WITH OTHER The twentieth century will do a great deal more for mankind by discovering new methods to kill bacteria, (the disease-carrying germs which get into the blood), than by 1 Inventing new methods of warfare between" human beings. In warfare, as in business, one must have pure rich, red blood to be courageous. A leading pathologist of America says: "Within the blood and body are wonderful bacteria fighting hostile invaders and foreshadowing the marvelous results that follow greater knowledge." "It is a fact," says Dr. Pierce, "that the red blood corpuscles are the soldiers within the body which protect us" from the outward attack of the invisible enemy. "Our enemies are in the shape of dis . ease-bringing bacteria, such as the germs of catarrh, corf romption, grip and malaria. If the blood is in a healthy state there are five million of these little red corpuscles to each cubic millimeter of blood that are fighting all the time for the health and well being of every person. The problem of medicine to-day is to find out more about them, but all we know is that we must keep these active agents for help in the best possible condition, and one's health depends upon how well one has preserved these good forces by right living nd the proper treatment in illness. Weakness, feeling of nervous exhaustion and colds are the warning signals that the blood is not In proper condition. The careless person takes risks which are dangerous, just as a general who would weaken hi army by unnecessary and indecisive battles. When the time comes he would not have his proper strength either for fighting or for defense. Dr. R. V. Pierce, chief consulting physician to the Invalids' Hotel and' Surgical Institute, of Buffalo, N. YM after years of experience in purifying the blood and putting the system in the right physical condition to defend itself from the attack of the germs of disease, discovered a medicine made entirely of roots and herbs, without the use of alcohol, that made rich red blood, and this medicine has been given to the public tnd can be obtained from any dealer in medicines in this country. It assists the stomach in taking from the food such elements as are necessary to feed the blood. This assimila tion helps in the oxidation of the red blood corpuscles, the liver is stimulated into greater activity, and in consequence the poisons in the system are eliminated, the heart gets the company will agree to a bi-weekly Day day. if it Is shown that the men favor it. and It seems that they do.

ATTACKS. lays, the people of Salem are glad to see the building so nearly completed that the Postofflce can be moved. There has been some criticism of the stone used In the structure for the reason that the blocks are not uniform In color, and some of them are spotted. It Is said, however, that after a time the stone will change In tint, so as to be" all of one color, and that exposure to the atmosphere will harden it. The size and shape of the building were not satisfactory to the peo ple, 'and effort was .made to have the plans changed, but without success. Should the stone fall to become uniform in color, this, added to the unsatisfactory shape, would cause some disappointment. In any event, the people are thankful FOR WEAK MEN right kind of bloody and the person feels invigorated and stronger.

I had heard of your wonderful medicine and. con cluded, as a last resort, I would try it. The first three bottles did not seem to do her much good, but I insisted on her using it a while longer. She soon began to improve, and after, tak ing twenty bottles of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery and the same quantity of his ' Favorite Prescription,' my wife was entirely cured. She only weighed 105 pounds when commencing with your medicines, and to-day tips the scale at 170 pounds. She is now healthy and happy, and says that she feels as one who has been snatched from the very-jaws of death. Thanking you from, the very depths of my heart for saving my wife, I hope that your life may yet be spared many years to relieve suffering humanity." A STANDARD BOOK.
