EPHRATA. 'Wash., April & (Special.)
Tour men, believed beyond doubt to be
the desperate bandits who, despite a rain
of bullets trom townspeople, coolly ex
ploded charge after charge of dynamite
under the safe of Ephrata Bank last
night, blew off tho door and escaped Into
the darkness, are now on their way to
"Waterville In the hands of the officers,
having been captured today about eight
miles from Ephrata.
For daring work, disregard of death and
veeming Indifference to danger of capture,
the men engaged- In the robbery are the
equals of the James or Youngers, notori
ous Missouri outlaws.
In the duel which preceded the bandits'
escape, the officers were in the dark, fair
ly well concealed, while the light by
which the robbers worked was a shining
target for the townspeople. Not one of
the men was hurt. The amount of booty
secured will not exceed $80 and has been
recovered. All the dynamite used failed
to penetrate the inner vault of the safa,
where the treasure, is kept.
Residents of Ephrata were awakened
about 1 A. M. by a heavy charge of nitro
glycerine. This was repeated, when Mrs.
Mary McGrath, living across the street,
went out In the Intense darkness to the
Kphrata Hotel and gave the alarm.
rk Unmindful of Bullets,
J. M. Pierce and Deputy Sheriff A. A.
Lytle had been awakened by the noise
and responded to the call for help. They
ran one block and with the Pioneer store
for protection, shot In the direction of the
bank. Intense darkness preventing a true
aim.
Later, after another charge had gone
off, a light appeared in the bank, and at
this shot after shot was fired. Then an.
cither charge resounded and the large
doors of the safe were heard to fall upon
the floor, and a fierce combat followed,
about 100 bullets being exchanged.
Again the light appeared In the bank.
Again shot after shot was sent at the
I light, but of no avail.
Another charge ' had been placed and
Ignited. Tills charge must have taken oft
the steel cap of the safety vault door and
ent It whirling In the air through the
bank. Again the light appeared in the
building. The robbers entered this time
only to find they had yet several inches
of steel between them and their booty.
One held the light, while the other used
a large, heavy, bar obtained from the tool
i bouso of the Great Northern section
i bouse, and a small crevice was made at
the bottom of the vault. Into this more
nltro-glycerlne was put and another dis
charge was heard. Then the shots were
too thick for the robbers, and after look
ing to see if the last charge had opened
the vault, they left. Seven different
charges were made on the vault and an
other would have done the work.
Capture Made by Ranchers.
The men were arrested 15 miles
southeast of Ephrata at 1 P. 11 today.
The capture wns made by J. T. Heron.
Press J. Connor, Oscar Finney and John
Smitll, all of whom are horsemen
rnnchlng In the Moses Coulee country.
The prisoners were brought here to
night and lodged In the Chelan County
Jail, nnd will be taken to tVatervlllo
Sunday. Two of the prisoners were
neatly dressed, well appearing men of
perhaps 25; the third Is an ordinary
looking tramp; the fourth a typical
bad man and surly.
Ephrata is a rough country town,
where the discharge of firearms Is
common, so not many citizens turned
out at the noise of the shooting.
Their captors pursued the robbers
for three hours, surprising them in
the sagebrush. They were taken with
out the discharge of a gun. Three of
the robbers were armed. The captives
Tefuse to talk or give names.

About the Grin.
The grip Is highly Infectious.
It stimulates other diseases.
The grip picks out the weak points of
a person's constitution.
The grip in itself Is by no means a
mortal disease.
The victims ot the grip are adults who
perish from pneumonia or bronchitis, and
the aged who sink from heart exhaus
tion. Children, while prone to the disease, en
Joy a comparative Immunity from its
complications and dangers.
In adults, the attack as a rule comes on
with lightning-like speed.
A person apparently in perfect health
Is suddenly overcome by a feeling of dis
comfort and depression.
He "runs" at the nose; he feels chilly;
bis head aches; his eyes pain him.
What to do Go to bed at once: take
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy and qui
nine as directed foi; Influenza.
Do this and the grip is soon shorn of
its terrors. For sale by all druggists.

MILLS TO MAKE OWN WAGES
Shingle Manufacturers Can Prom
ise No Advance to Men.
SEATTLE, Wash.. April 6. (Special.)
Each shingle mill in the state is to be
free to make any arrangement necessary
or desirable, with the shingle-weavers. A
mass meeting of shingle manufacturers
held today declined to bind the manufac
turers to a uniform wage scale.
It was pointed out at the meeting that
the present wage scale for shlnglemlll
employes was fixed at a time when star
shingles commanded $1.80 a thousand.
Since then shingles have been as low as
Jl and In Isolated Instances they even sold
below this figure. Mill men agreed yes
terday that they could not expect better
than K a thousand this Summer, and as
the mills will only open a small part of
the time the manufacturers declared they
could not afford to Increase wages.
Shingleweavers have asked for a con
ference with the mlflowners to determine
a uniform wage scale. No such confer -
:1
ence Is apt to be held, as the mill men d
not believe they can afford to advance
the prices they are paying the weavers

frustrated by the rearrest of Kellv. The

ASTORIA. Or.. April 6. (Special.)
After being out an hour and 10 minutes
the Circuit Court Jury In the case of
Captain C. M- Forest, on trial for the
murder of George Fisher, returned a
verdict today finding the defendant
guilty of manslaughter and recom
mending him to the clemency of the
court.

nounced they would abide by the ver
dict, and the court then sentenced the
defendant. Judge McBride said that,
owing to the previous good character
of Captain Forest, his extreme age.
and the recommendation of the jury
for clemency, he did not feel disposed
to give the defendant the highest pen
alty allowed under the law. He then
sentenced Captain Forest to serve an
Indeterminate term of from 1 to 15
years In the Penitentiary, the. time to
be determined by the Governor, and to
pay a fine of $50.
As near as can be learned, three
ballots were taken by the jury before
an agreement was reached. The first
ballot stood three for acquittal and
nine for conviction, the degree not be
ing taken into consideration. The sec
ond ballot was 11 for conviction of
manslaughter and one for acquittal,
while the tliird ballot was unanimous
for manslaughter, with a recommen
dation for the clemency of the court.
Captain Forest will be taken to Sa
lem Monday evening.

mild and gentle forms of treat

to detain the patient a single
day from his business. A cure
Is a certainty in each Instance,
normal circulation is restored,
and the natural processes of
waste and repair arc again es-

manly power? I offer you a
radical cure, and my treatment
Is Independent of the harsh.
