Fix masked and armed men robbed the first National Bank of Sedro-Woolley of more than $20,000 at S:50 o'clock tonight and escaped into the -woods, after slightly wounding three citizens whom the robbers shot while fleeing from the bank. Cashier J. Guddall, the assistant cashier, a bookkeeper and three citi zens were in the bank when the rob bers arrived. Two of them stood out side, shooting up and down the street to keep the citizens indoors, while the ether four kicked in a large piate Klaes window and climbed into the bank. firing several volleys from their pistols to enforce their commands to those inside to hold up tneir hands. Cashier Empties Gdd. Cashier Guddall seized his pistol and fired at the robbers until his ammuni tion was exhausted, when.-, he was forced to Join the others lined up against the wall. Guddall believes he wounded one of the robbers, but the wounded man made his escape with the others. While two of the four robbers who entered the bank kept those inside at bay the others went through the cash drawers, taking all the money In sight ranging from $20 gold pieces and bills of every denomination down to the last cent in the tills. Fleeing Men Shoot. The quartet then dashed outside, where their companions awaited them. and then all ran down the street one block. Turning off into Kerry avenue, they disappeared in the darkness. As the robbers fled from the bar.k they fired right and left. During the shooting Fred Cardine, a bartender, was shot in the lej?, as was Jameb Wilson, a 15-year-oid boy. Joseph I'eterson, a logger, was shot through the fleshy part of the neck, but was not dangerously hurt. A posse was immediately organized and is searching the woods, but all trace of the men was lost soon after they left the bank, and it is doubtful whether they will be captured. on without stopping to Inquire into the1 extent of the accident or to otter as sistance to the rider of the motorcycle was denied Saturday by Mr. Armit stead. He says the accident was un avoidable and he did stop and offer assistance. He has procured the state ments of witnesses to support his de nial of the report. Mr. Armitstead was riding eastward ly on Burnside street at a speed of about 12 miles an hour. Reaching Park street, he saw another automobile coming down hill toward him from the south. To avoid collision Mr. Armit stead turned quickly north into Park street. As tie did so a man riding a motorcycle ran into his machine. Mr. Armitstead stopped and. while inquir ing into the accident, the motorcycle rider disappeared. Mr. Armitstead forthwith went to the police station and reported the accident to Police Captain Moore. That the motorcycle was running at a high rate of speed was indicated by the fact that the collision twisted ttie frame of Mr. Armitstead's heavy car in the direction in which the motor cycle was moving and the car was knocked a distance of about three feet. The report of Mr. Armitstead's acci dent was printed in the same article that mentioned a crusade against drunken automobile drivers, one of whom was sentenced to the rockpile. There was no suspicion that Mr. Armit stead had been drinking. SENATOR SLAIN WITH AX COLOMBIAN STATESMAN VICTIM Or ASSASSINS.

Revive the Eastern Oregon Normal (From the Milton Eagle.) It's about time for Oregon to get over the foolish notion that it must kill or cripple its schools in order to reduce taxes. The state schools cost so little in proportion to the good they do that the frequent attacks upon them have been inspired, we think, by a singular mania or obses sion for school-killing, rather than by any sane motive of economy. The University of Oregon has been seriously handicapped in the past by such unwarranted assaults, but is now gliding happily along in calm -waters. Two normal schools were killed, leav ing only one to serve the entire state. An effort to revive them and to "re store them to permanent usefulness, free from all political danger, is now in progress, and The Eagle, for one, hopes that it will succeed. It is time for Oregon to emerge from the anti school quagmires of 50 years ago and to march breast to breast with its sister states in the educational pro cession. The Eastern Oregon Normal should be revived. The Southern Oregon Normal should be revived. Both bills on the ballot should carry by large majorities. An enlightened self-interest, demanding plenty of trained teachers for the state's young, dic tates such a course. State pride dic tates it. Both these schools have state plants now idle. Is it economy that they should continue idle? Will 9 cents on each $1000 of taxable prop erty seriously deplete any taxpayer's poeketbookt Monmouth costs 4 cents. Weston and Ashland, if re-established, will cost' 22 cents. And by the way, have taxes decreased appre ciably since the Weston and Ashland Normals were abolished? Not so one could notice it. These schools cut so little financial figure that they may be said to have nothing to do with the real cost of state government. Especially would The Eagle like to see the Eastern Oregon Normal re established.' That two-thirds of its area should be without a state school of any sort is a condition no other self-respecting commonwealth would tolerate. T ; 'I ; fr; r rr: ri " M 3 S : W I 5?'

Restore to it the Eastern Oregon State Normal School by voting Cast your ballots for the cause of education, for the betterment of the public school system, for the better training of Oregon's young men and women who wish to become teachers. It will add but a feather's weight to the burden of your taxes. ONE-FORTIETH OF A MILL or two and one-half cents annually on every thousand dollars assessed valuation, as provided in the millage taxe bill referred to the people by the Legislative Assembly, will restore to the state's use the Eastern Oregon Normal's plant at "Weston, consisting of one main building, two dormitories, president's cottage and 10 acres of ground. Eastern Oregon needs this school. Oregon needs it, and also needs the Southern Oregon Normal at Ashland. Three Normal Schools are none too many for this great commonwealth. Reflect that if you pay taxes on $2000, the permanent and adequate maintenance of the Eastern Oregon Normal will cost you but five cents each year. (Paid advertisement, authorized by F. D.

NEURALGIC PAINS Among the causes of neuralgia the most Important is the general physical condition of the patient. Neuralgia Is most common lit persons reduced in strength by over-work or some form-of over-exertion, physical or mental, or by loss of sleep. Anaemia, or lack of good, red blood is a common cause of neu ralgia. The reason for this is plain. The nerves get their nourishment through the blood. When the blood is thin and weak the nerves are badly nourished, they become inflamed and neuralgic pains are produced. These pains have been described as "the cry of a starved nerve." Hot applications to soothe these in flamed nerves and Dr. Williams" Pink Pills to build up the blood and carry the needed elements to the nerves is the correct treatment and one that has brought good results in so many cases that It Is no longer an experiment. Headache, backache, sleeplessness, nerv ous debility, nervous breakdown, St. Vitus' dance and the functional forms of partial paralysis show good results under the tonic treatment with Dr. Williams' Pink Pills.
