masked and armed. He was thrown
down and his arms tied behind him.
They then went back to the factory,
gathering up a sledge hammer and
other tools, and went at the safe. They
knocked off the knob with a hammer
and drilling holes, set off in all three
charges of nitro-glycerine. In the

pulled into the siding to pick up cars
from the factory, the brakeman enter
ed the rear door to get his orders and
was met by a volley of shots from the
robberB, one of the bullets going
through his hat. He promptly ran off

aid. As the engine returned, Mickley
was found but the robbers had gone,
leaving a pint bottle of nitro-glycerine
apd all their tools in the factory office.

recently paid the last of the Modoc war
bonds. The claimant was Charles
Sherlock, a Southern Oregon man, and

$113.47. The face value of the bond
was S75.90, interest coupons $27.52,
interest on bond $10.05, making a total
of $113.47.
These bonds were issued under an act

that the state owed him money which
it was willing and anxious to pay
Sherlock furnished undisputed proof of
his rieht to tho sum. whuh was ac
cordingly paid him.

area in which there are three billion
feet of the finest standing timber. A
site has been purchased in the suburbs
of the city for' an added sawmill of
150,000 feet capacity. The railroad is
25 milea in length and was built by H.
C. Carver, $3,000 having been contrib

BAKER'S CRATER ACTIVE.
Vapor May Bo Soon Rising From tho
Mountain at Times.
Bollingham, WnBh., Aug. 18.--Stor
ies of smoko soon arising from Mount
Bakor's Bnow-crownod domo following
tho oarthquako in this territory laat
wintor do not appoar bo fnr-fotchod,
following tho investigations mauo by
tho Mazamaa of vents in tho crater of
tho hugo extinct volcano. Secretary
John A. Leo, who roturncd to this city
today, dcclaroa that at a favorablo
hour In tho early morning ho 1ms no
doubt but that tho vapor could onslly
bo scon from this oity, 50 miloa away,
with a good pair of field glaasos.
Tho "vonts" in tho crater appeared
especially actlvo this year to some of
tho MaznmaB. Secrotary Leo, how
ever, who uBcondod tho mountain in
1900 and again in 1906, concludes that
on tho whole thcro is not any incrcaso
in the activity of sulphurous gu'ses
blpwlng out of tho so-callod "vents,"
"Tho actual crater of tho mountain,"
Baid Mr. Loo, "is that portion lying
botwren tho rccondary penk and tho
main peak. It is easy to seo thut tho
penks originally constituted tho north
and south aides of tho crater rim. Tho
castorly and westerly sides havo been
broken and crumbled away by tho ac
tion of weather, thus leaving tho val
loy or 80-clallcd 'saddle' botween in
betwocn.
"Ono of tho actlvo vents la situated
at tho easterly cud of this depression,
und tho othor at tho westorly end. Tho
east vont is apparently by fur tho most
active, tho westerly ono consisting at
this timo merely of cracks and fissures
in the snow and ico through which tho
vapors escape Tho west vont, how
ever, consists of a holo extending down
into tho snow to the porua rocks bo
neath. It ia perhaps 20 to 30 foot in
diameter. Tho vapor puffs out inter
mittently, riaing up in donso clouds,
and tho snow is cruBtcd with sulphur
deposits. I am inclined toboliovo that
most of the visiblo vapor is merely
steam arising from tho overheated
rocks, though tho gases uomotimea aro
almost overpowering.

tion of tho Vanderbllts from New York
Central lines and tho completo ascend
ency of Edward II. Harrlman in tho

declared to bo tho next important move
in the ruilway world.
It is reported on what acorns to bo
good authority thut tho Harrlman back
ers have secured an option on tho great
er portion, if not all, of tho Vandorbilt
holdings and will soon cIobo a deal in
tho interest of tho "Napoleon of tho

been obtained, it is stated, is on $50,

which is to be purchased for Mr. Har

Tho last report of tho Union Pacific

The total capitalization of tho New
