BOTH TO BE ARRESTED Signed Three Men for -the British Ship Elginshire and Commission ers Smith and MacMasters Ob ject News of Waterfront. Warrants will be iBsued this morn ing for the arrest of the Jost Brothers, on charges of shipping sailors without a proper license to conduct a sailor boarding house within the State of Oregon. The complaint will be filed by William MacMaster and Adamee M. Smith, members of the State Board of Sailor Boarding House Commissioners. The specific charge will be that they shipped three men on the British bark Elginshire, Captain Stott, yesterday afternoon. Jo'st Brothers have no license to conduct a sailor boarding house, and the act of yesterday is construed by the board of commissioners as a simple act of crimping, which is a serious of fense In the State of Oregon. Jost Brothers recently applied to the Board for a license to conduct a sailor board ing house. Associated with them were mentioned the names of "Mysterious- Billy" Smith, Paddy Lynch and others.. Th application was denies. iater Jost Brothers again applied for a li cense, this time for themselves. They agreed with the commission that neithor Smith nor Lynch should be connected, either directly or indirectly with the business. After consideration the Board agreed to grant the license, provided that the boarding house be put In suitable order and a bond of 5000 be filed, in addition to the regu lation fee of $250. They were warned that any attempt to engage in busi ness prior to the fulfillment of these obligations would result In the revok ing of their license. An agreement was entered .into be tween the master of the Elginshire and the Jost boys, whereby eight men were to be supplied at a rate a trifle less than that which is provided by the State law. Yesterday afternoon eight men were lined up In the office of the British Consul. Captain Stott accepted three and rejected five. The three men were regularly signed on the ship's ar ticles. William McMasters, one of the mem bers of the State Board of Sailor Boarding House Commissioners, said yesterday: "In shipping the sailors on the Elgin shire the Jost boys have violated every article of agreement entered into be tween, the members of this commission and themselves. We shall proceed against them immediately. It was an understood fact between us that the boarding house must be placed In proper shape. We inspected the prem ises once and would not accept the place. Charles Jost called on me yes terday and stated that they were work ing on the place and would soon have It in shape for the reception of sailors. "Another feature on which the Board was particular was that "Mysterious Billy" Smith, "Bunco" Kelly and "Paddy" Lynch should not be connected In any way, either directly or Indi rectly, with the concern. To this they agreed, but I am given to understand that Smith has solicited ships for the new concern and that Kelly has been hunting sailors in a number of the down-town saloons. "Jumbo" Riley, an ex-pugilist and well-known character, is also mixed up with them. I am told. Wo have placed the matter before Dis trict Attorney Manning and tomorrow shall proceed against them in accord ance with the law." During the past two years Portland has enjoyed the reputation of having the best sailor facilities of any port on the Pacific. Coast. During that period not a single ship has been detained for more than 24 hours on account of sail ors, while on the Sound last season the British bark Muskoka and two other vessels lay in the bay for nearly five weeks waiting for the boarding masters to furnish crews. It is the contention of shipping men that rivalry in the boarding house business would be a bad thing for the port. Inasmuch as a de mand for sailors would Induce rivals to steal men from vessels which have re cently arrived. During the past year conditions have changed greatly. Formerly, in British ships especially. It was immaterial to "the owners and masters whether the sailors ran away or not. If the men left by "French leave" the wages un paid reverted to the owners. Since last . July, all wages due deserting sailors revert to the Board of Trade. WTLIj KEPATR LIGHTSHIP Bids Called For and Will Be Re ceived Cp to Xoon Friday.

Thieves Enter in ,the Absence of Head of Household Servant Sleeps During Robbery. After attending a theater party Satur day night, Saul Silverfleld, president of the Silverfleld Company's store at Fourth and Morrison streets, returned to his home, 6S9 Flanders street, to discover that burglars had looted the residence, taking away a large quantity of silver ware. Owing to the fact that Mrs. Sil verfleld is away on a visit at the present time and Mr. Silverfield is not able to say just what articles of value were in the house," it is not known how much was stolen. Mr. Silverfield thinks the loss in silverware is at least $400. The Japanese servant returned at 10:30 o'clock' on the night of the burglary, found things as usual and retired. As none of the rooms on the upper floor were disturbed, it is believed that after the lower floor was looted the burglars found the sleeping servant upstairs and retired without attempting to get more plunder. Entrance was effected by break ing a pane of glass in one of the parlor windows and unfastening the window latch. Allege St. Louis Is Favored. CHICAGO. 111.. Jan. 21. Just why Chi cago.

Worry Is a Cause of Fatalities Pe culiar V City Men, and Can ise Avoided by Building Up the Body, Brain and Nerves by Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey, as Prescribed Astonishing increase In the mortality from heart disease, based on statistics made public recently by the Depart ment of Health, is being discussed with much earnestness by eminent physicians of New York City. According to the report of Dr. W. E. Guilfoy. Registrar of the Bureau of Vital Statistics, the increase of the number tf fatal cases of heart disease for the first eleven months of last year in Manhnttan and the Bronx over tho same period in 1906 was 1246, or, if the ratio is maintained, loOO for the year. This would mean an excess of 27 per cent. Dr. Thomas Darlington. President of the Board of Health, said that almost as large an increase had been noted in 1956, and that, in fact, ever since 1866, when the statistics of the depart ment were first kept in such a way that' comparisons could be made, there had been a steady rising of the scale of mortality due to weak hearts. The worry and nervous strain caused by the money panic has been so in tense that the natural forces of tha body have not been sufficient to with stand them, and all leading physicians Jigree that to keep the vital forces in normal condition it is necessary to take a pure tonic stimulant to build up the body, brain and nerves, and there is but one that is prescribed by all doc tors, and that is Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey, which has been the world's greatest brain and nerve food for over forty years.
