HIGHWAY ROBBERIES.
On Tuesday evening at 6:30 o'clock
the Hon. J. C. Fullerton was crossing
the West Rosehurg abridge over the
South Umpqua on his way to town
where he had some legal business to
attend to, when in the middle of the
bridge a man stepped up behind him
and ordered him to throw up his
hands. -The Judge thought the man
was joking and was in no particular
haste to do so when the robber thrust
a large pistol in his face and ordered
him to immediately throw up his
bands. The order was complied with
when the robber holding the gun in
his right hand at the Judges breast,
searched him and took out of hi:
pockets, his knife, office keys and
either one dollar and twenty-fire cents
or one dollar and seventy-five cents,
the Judge is not certain, but it was
either of the sums of money. The
highwayman then ordered the Judge
to return across the bridge toward
his home and the order was obeyed
There was a man on the south end of
the bridge walking over the bridge
while the bold robbery was going on
who was carrying a lantern; the thief
passed this man in an hurried manner
as he made haste to get to town.
When Judge Fullerton. neared the
north end of the bridge he met a
citizen who was coming totown, and
the two hurried accross the bridge to
give the alarm but the thief had
made good Ms escape. The Judge
says that his assailant was a tall and
rather thin man. About thirty min
utes after this event took place, Oscar
J. Signalness was on his way from his
home to the post office and saw a
man coming in his direction, walking
rapidly. Signalness divining his in
tention was prepared, and as the man
got directly before Signalness ordered
him to throw np his hands. Signal
ness being a big fellow and not afraid
of "being overpowered, although he
was scared, grabbed the revolver
pushing it aside and said: "I throw
.np for no man." The desperado told him
to throw tip again or he would shoot.
Oscar answered that the fellow was
too much a coward to do so, and the
desperado seeing the character he
had to deal with, ordered him to move
on, and Signalness took 'advantage of
the suggestion at once and started to
run, and the desperado to emphasize
his work hit Oscar on the head with
the revolver, making a bad cut near
.the temple.

;man as from the description the high
wayman is the same individual who
.three or four weeks ' ago committed
several hold-ups and one attempted
murder. The man whoever he is,
that is doing the devilment knows the
town well and how to get around it
quickly. The affair will end up by
some man resisting and shooting the
robber and then there will be little
ponder, though the man's family will
e disgraced by the exposure if they
Jbave not been disgraced before this
yby the man's actions. Whoever the
man may be, there will come a time
of reckoning as he will undoubtedly
go on and on and meet his death at
the hands or some man or end up in
the penitentiary or die on the gallows,
,and the quicker such a curse is re
moved from the world, the better it
svill be for the world at large.

George Francis Train- died last
Monday -sight in New York, of l eart
disease. He was born'in Boston March
24, 1829. In 1833 his parents died
at yellow fever at Now Orleans and
young Train went alone to live with
his grandmother at Waltham, Mass.
t different periods he was employed
as a farmer boy, a shipping clerk, a
grocery clerk and afterwards became
a partner irf a grocery store at the
age of 20 years. Ho established a
branch in Liverpool in 1S50 and in
1853 opened the establishment of
Train & Co., in Melbourne, Australia.
In 1854 he started the operation of
the first line of clipper ships to Cali
fornia. He was the promoter" of the
Atlantic & Western railroad in 1S58
and built the first street car lines in
Europe in 1S60. He made three trips
around the world and is noted as a
traveler. He made an independent
race for the presidency in 1872. On
the Pacific coast Mr.Train was well
known as the promoter of the Union
Pacific railroad. He was a great
boomer of the city of Tacoma when
the city was mostly owned by the
Nor! hern Pacific railroad. He was
so enthusiastic in his belief that Ta
coma was the shortest route around
the world that he made a trip by that
city in 67& days.
Yesterday the State department
received a cablegram from Minister
Allen at Seoul, Corea, urging that re

protection of the legation and Ameri

on duty around the legation at Seoul
about 150 marines, but owing to the
intense feeling against all foreigners
there is grave danger that an attack
on all legations may be made at al
most any moment.

REFUSES TO AID ALLY.
Report That Franco Declines to Be Iil-
volved In Trouble
Berlin, Jan. 20. The German
Government has become privy to the
fact that France declines to give Rus-
Mil
na any assurances ot armed neip
should war bo the outcome of the Far
Eastern differences, oven should Great
Britain aid Japan. It is understood
here that Russia asked Franco to de
fine her position in the contingency
of Great Britain actively participating
in a Japanese attack on Russia, and
that the French Government replied
that France must remain military
neutral, as the Russian-French al
liance was quite separato from the
question pending. This resolution of
France, it is believed here, deeply af
fects not only the situation between
Russia and Japan, but the Franco
Russian alliance.
Paris, Jan. 30. There is strong
reason to believe that exchanges of
communications are now going on be
tween Franco and Russia concerning
the position Russia will finally adopt
in response to tho last Japanese note.
Long conferences between Foreign
Minister Delcasse and M. Nelidoff, the
Russian Ambassador, are being held
almost daily. Prior to these Russia
had not consulted France, and M, Nel
idoff went to Cannes for an extended
stay, telling his diplomatic colleagues
that he happilly had no part in the
Russia-Japanese negotiations. Fol
lowing the presentation of Japan's
latest demands, M. Nelidoff gave up
his vacation and began frequent con
ferences with M. Delcasse. It is ex
pected that the exchange of views
will exert a strong influence, shaping
the course Russia will adopt.
Among the officials and diplomats
it is understood that the exchanges
will have the following results:
First, Russia, appreciating the de
cisive nature of the issues presented
in Japan's last note, desires to secure
the advice of her nearest political
friend and,

Second, Franco wishes to exercise
her influence to prevent a war in
which she might become embroiled.
More particularly, France has be
gun to realize that she ought to be
consulted concerning Russia's course
in China, as Russia and France jointly
promulgated the note of March 19,
1902, and setting forth that they
would act together concerning the in
tegrity and free development o:
China.
It is the general impression here
that if war breaks out the best diplo
macy may not succeed in keeping
France out of the imbroglio. There
fore M. Delcasse, considering the self
interests of France as well as of the
Franco-Russian note of 1902, is coun
seling pacific adjustment.
Concerning the specific character
of M, Delcasse's advice, the only
guide Is the note of 1902, which is
being much discussed in tho efforts to
determine its bearing on the present
situation. The text of tho document
refers to the purpose of the two gov
ernments to safeguard the integrity
of .China and approves the principle
that China and Corea shall remain
open to the commerce and industry of
all nations. Thi3 course is construed
here as restricted to the 18 provinces
of old China, and as not applying to
Manchuria and other parts of the
Chinese Empire outside of old China,
Therefore, while the Franco-Russian
agreement is serving to bring about
an exchange of views, it is hoped that
the agreement does not limit Russia
concerning Manchuria.
TO ABDICATE THE THRONE.
A news dispatch of Tuesday's date
says:
King fetcr oi wervla. according to a
report from Coltinje, Montenegro is pre
pared to voluntarily renounce the throne
and allow tho powers to nominate his
B'lcccpsor.
Tho Prince of Montenegro is said to
lave received a mandate from Russia to
clear up the precarious situation in Ser
via and King I'eter is alleged to have
recognized tho untenability of his posi
tion and to bo willing to abdicate His
successor, it is added, will only bo per
mitted to ascend the throne conditional
ly, on his agreeing to punish tho leaders
of tho conspiracy which resulted in the
a'sauEination of King Alexander and

It will bo remembered 'at tho time
of tho assassination of King Alexan
der und Queen Draga, it was stated
that King Peter was privy to the
murder and as a consequence has
failed to punish tho murderers.

Tho National Government eives the

It gives the cities great public build

It give manufacturers protection by

It has, however, done but litilo for

Tho fanner is tho backbone of the
country; it is ho who feeds tho entire

with poor roads.
At last it seems as if tho National
Government was going to do something
for the farmer. A bill has been intro
duced in Congress called tho Brownlow

Tho farmer wants this bill to past, and

A South can Idyl.
Devoid of situations that Ux the
credulity or common-sense of the spec
tator, "Sandy Bottom" is a play that
appeals to all classes of society. Its
scenes are laid m a typical Southern
village and tho story while simple and
unpretentious tells itself with directness
and clearness. It is distinguished by
singular charm of manner and wonder
ful character drawing. It is n play to
lure one back to every gentlo memory of
tho past. Tho old "swimmin hole" and
other delights of boyhood are brought
vividly to mind. The play is one of
which a competent critic has seen fit to
remark that ono is better for having
seen and heard. Tho company repre
senting it this season is said to be a re
markably clever ono and tho production
is one of real worth.
