THREE ROBBERS GET EASY MONEY A gang of highway robbers held a busy session in Tacoma Saturday night, holding up two men and relieving them of their pluses. The firs! victim of the hold-ups was Oli- ver A. Garrison, who resides at Bismarck. As he was hurrying home late Saturday night he was suddenly confronted by three masked men. near the corner of Pacific avenue and Sixty-fourth street. Instantly EQUAL RIGHTS "I have no use for those who preach 'Equal lights to all and special privileges to none,'" said Michael Dowd of the post office department today. "I live on the Corner of Seventh street and Yakinia ave- nue. On the avenue between Twelfth and Twenty-fifth streets, the abutten are al- lowed to sprinkle the street with city \u25a0\va,ter, for which they pay not one cent. This in along the speedway and in lor the benefit of a specially favored class. Myself and my neighbors have to pay the city 26 cents 'a month for water for our lawn* and gardens, and are not allowed to put a drop on the roadway. I voted for the couucilinni who are permitting this rank Injustice, and who seem to have forgotten their campaign slogan of 'Equal rights and no special privileges.'

Garrison reported the case to the police yesterday at noon, and furnished a fair description of the holdup*. Several hour- alter the Garrison affair, John, E. Moser. ho is employed in the Northern Pacific shops, was held up by two men, thought to be the same ones who relieved Mr. Garrison of his valuables. Mo»er was confronted by only two men. but lie says the third man wan on they watch farther up the street.

About Bf> tons ni freight was discharged at Victoria. B. ('., and the remainder, consisting oi straw braid, leather, cloth, paper goods, bamboo poles, sulphur, cocoamtts and a lot of curios for the St. Louis fair, is being unloaded here today. The passage from Yokohama was made in 13 days and 7 hours. Near the Shantung promontory, in the passageway between Korea and Japan, the Uyadej was held up by a Japanese auxiliary cruiser, which tired a shot across her DOWS, .She lay to for about three quarters of an hour, and then, thinking thai aTI was well, proceeded on her way. when the Japs tired two more shots, this time n little closer, She stop- lied again and the little Jap officer who came aboaord was quite indignant that the Hyades should start after the first order to stop was given. After examining the ship's papers and cargo in looking for contraband goods she was allowed to pro- ceed, after a delay of two hours and a half. Members of the crew report that there is little evidence in the Japanese ports ot a war going on. as all busines is pro- ceeding smoothly and there is no unusual excitement.

Keeping to the west, a small i settlement on Chamber* creek was reached. , A little further on there appeared a body i of men marching in double die. At Brat sight one might think it was 11 detach- incut of soldiers, but investigation revealed the fact that they Were patient* from th« , Western Washington hospital for the in- , Kane at Fort Steitaeooin, taking exercise. One of them approached the carrier and gravely offered a piece of leather to be sent to his son. After passing the state hospital the route turns toward the south through a belt of limber.

The pur- pose ol the convention, which will be in session two days, is to discuss measures and means for the improvement ol naviga- j tion on the Sacramento and San Joaquin rivers and the protection of adjacent lands from Hood waters. Owing to the influen- tial and representative character ol the convention, it is )>elieVW something definitfi in the way of river improvement will be jaccomplished. FOR RIVER IMPROVEMENT The car|o is small because the indus- tries of the island are greatly impaired (in account of the absence of so many men at the front. In one month over 40,0' M were taken from the vicinity of Kobe. It i* expected that llyades will be taken nil' the Oriental run and used as a collier for a while. No repairs were needed alter the long trip.

To these the immense scintillating mountains of the deep are a perpetual menace, and never were they larger or more numerous than at present, as a consequence of the long, cold winter and a spring of bluster ing, persistent gales, the worst for ten years. The gigantic masses of ice are being carried south in the midst of mighty frozen tields, which are torn from their Arctic home and Heut careening across the wide waste of waters from Greenland to Labra- dor. . .... Some of the steamship lines plying be i ween England and Canada have been forced to abandon the Belle Isle route al- together, and they now utilize the less per- ilous but sufficiently risky route round Cape Race. Passengers on the mail boat plying to l.alnadar frequently count 200 or 300 bergs oft* that coast in one day. Several of the Montreal liners plying via Belle Isle.strait* have had their bow- stove in by colliding with these pinnacled masses, while earlier :-:i the year ocean steamships to and from New York woe obliged to deflect from their regular route. Charles Henry, a giant Russian Sailor of enormous strength, is a police prisoner in New York. When the bark Angora, from St. Thomas, arrived off Bedloe's island, -lie had her union jack upside down. A dozen policemen were hurried to the vessel in the patrol boat. There they found the giunt in irons. He had been a terror from the time he embarked. He wouldn't work, wouldn't let anyone else work; in fact! didn't want to do anything but fight, un- til finally Captain I'odenheiser succeeded t in knocking him over with a capstan bar and with the aid of the rest of the crew got him in irons, When the hatches of the Italian bark Aitiat Menoth, unloading at Philadelphia, were opened, the wailors who went below- had an experience they will long remem- ber. Confronting them were thousands of tarantulas and centipedes read) to do battle. The vessel was loaned witn a cargo of bones, and selecting long, strong THE ROGERS BROTHERS.
