"Yegg'" men, who are roaming about the country leaving a wake of crime. They are experienced In their line of work, . absolutely reckless and prompt to take ' the life of anyone that Interferes with their plans of proceeding or is slow In . obeying orders. Southern California has recently been tha scene1 of a series of bold robberies and in several Instances passengers who resisted were shot with ; out hesitancy. In most of the cases three men operated, and from Imperfect i descriptions In a general way answer those of the men who, by their lawless ness, are now active In the Northwest. The "Yegg" men travel about the country as tramps and hoboes, living on focVl' stolen or begged and sleeping around camp fires and haystacks rather than stopping at the cheap lodging houses and eating bad meals and free lunches. They keep themselves free .' from alllancea with other criminals, are secretive as to their movements and make but few friends among other crooks,. They nre continually on the lookout for opportunities to steal where the danger to themselves Is not great, but at times get bold and take big chances to secure plunder. After plan ning and carrying out a robbery they, as a rule, take to the open country away from the railroads, and posing as farm laborers, sulk about until the efforts of the officers have relaxed In their In vestigations. The Ken Shot - Tha man shot In Seattle was William lartln, a longshoreman. The bullet truck him over the left eye and plowed a furrow along his forehead. The wound was not dangerous, but bled freely through the severing of some mall arteries.

His 'wound was at first considered fatal, but Pay made a re markable rally and Is now on the road to recovery. His wound was almost . Identical to the one which caused the death of President McKlnley. . " Polios roUowlar Clues. The police are still following the clues and facts In regard to the hold-up pub lished In The Journal.

Hampered by his va Use and other packages he was carry lng.

Captain Hoogbklrk to ths Beaon. Captain Hooghklrk stepped out of the pilot house and as he saw the stunned man going beneath the surface he plunged in without waiting to remove even his coat. Mr. Hill's head was about a foot under the water when the brave little -captain eeixed him. He raised the limp form, and in spite of a strong cur rent, he held the lumberman s hend above the water and slowly but surely tieaded for the shore. Finally he reached terra flrma under the dock Just as the almost-drownod man recovered his senses. A rope was lowered from the dock and Mr. Hill was raised to a place of safety.

"I could not see a man drown." he said. "If Mr. Hill had gone down it is likely we could never have found him, and so It was necessary to seize him before ho went out of sight. It would have done no good to have thrown him a life preserver or a rope, as he was helpless from the Injury. The water must be 20 feet deep at the spot where he fell in and the current is strong.

Women love a clear, healthy com plexion. Pure blood makes it. Burdock Blood Bitters makes pure blood. Preferred Stock Canned Gtoods. Allen A Lewis' Best Bra-.d In the State Circuit Court this morn ing Judge Sears, Judges Cleland and George assenting, and Judge Frazer absent, handed down a decision on the demurrer In the sailor boarding-house Injunction case. In which Smith and White Bros, are the plaintiffs and S. M. Mears and the other members of the sailor boarding-house commission are the defendants. By the decision the court overrules 'the demurrer, hut does not pass upon the law creating the com mission, the main point of the ctontest. It holds that the commission cannot ar bitrarily refuse an application for li cense without giving some legal rea son therefor. Constitutional doubts as to the legality of the act are lightly passed over and conceded insufficient to Invalidate it. W. T. Hume, attorney for the plain tiffs, asked and was granted a writ of mandamus, to be returnable at 2 o'clock tomorrow afternoon, a course advised in the court's opinion. The suit of Smith and White Bros, was begun some time ago, and the plaintiffs alleged that by the refusal of the 8tate Commission to grant them a license to operate a sailor boarding house, they have been deprived of a remunerative business, since early in May. Their attorneys pressed upon the attention of the court that the statute infringed upon several provisions of the. organic law, and the contrary view was also earnestly urged. Tne Decision. "After a tareful examination of the question, however," the decision con tinues, "and recognizing some dissim ilarity In 'the bases of our position, we have concluded to. resolve any doubt existing concerning the validity of this legislation in favor thereof. " Believing that any antagonism between a statute and the oaganic law must be obviously clear and. unmistakable, that the exist ence of such conflict Is not to be lightly assumed, that every presumption and Intendment favor the validity of the statute, In conformity with the theory or the omniscience of the Legislature, except where Its activities have been repressed by the people themselves of the state or the nation In their respec tlve charters, and recognising the force of those judicial utterances of our own Supreme Court, which require certainty beyond a reasonable doubt of the un constitutionality of an act, before glv lng utterance to such opinion, we have reached a determination to give this statute that effect which seems to have been contemplated by those who con' etructed' it, and which certainly accords with correct commercial and ethical considerations." After reviewing the various stages of the case, the court said of the charge that arbitrary power had been used by the Legislature In creating the com mis slon, that a number of authorities were on record to the contrary. Continuing. Judge Bears said: "Taking the admission of counsel, to gether with these Interpretations of the force of language employed in framing sucii.conceasiQn. jub. apparent. lhatJJie court must hold the action of the Board of Commissioners to be arbitrary in character. It must be clear that whatever discretion may be vested In the board, it cannot be exercised , in the manner herein exhibited; that they cannot refuse a license to one who has brought himself within the plain re qulremervts of. the statute without as signing any reason therefor; that such cbnduct is not contemplated by the statute, and that a remedy by man damus Is the proper as well aa the ade quate corrective. The Proper Remedy. "This is our opinion as to the proper remedy for the plaintiffs in this case under the admitted facts and the law governing the subject matter of the is sues arising between the parties. As, however, the first pleading in a pro ceeding for mandamus is the writ, and as no writ has ever issued In this court, under the pleadings, our decision Is at the most only advlsbry, but we hereby indicate our willingness to Is sue a peremptory mandamus upon the filing of papers making a showing ap propriate to these views." W. T. Hume, attorney for the plain tiffs, immediately filed an application for and was granted an alternative writ of mandamus, returnable at 2 o'clock tomorrow afternoon. The ap plication alleges that the denial of a license to -Smith and White Bros, ha injured their business since May 24, and that as the shipping season will soon open, they will be further Injured if the license is not granted. The court allowed the application, and Mr. Hume served the papers upon Attorney Henry E. McGinn, representing the Board of Commissioners, in the courtroom. Mr. McGinn-accepted the service, and the two attorneys. will meet before the court tomorrow afternoon. A .wheelman's tool bag Isn't complete without a bottle of Dr. Thomas' Electric Oil.
