The signs point to another clash be-
tween Japanese and Russians this
week unless the latter see At to retire
toward Hardin. Field Marshal Oyama,
after time Of brief reorganization of
his main army during which small
bodies have been skirting the Russian
tanks, has evidently begun another ad-
vance of his entire force with wings
far extended. 1t will be for the Rus
SLAMS to fight or fall back.
At several points north of Tie Pass
the Russians have thrown up heavy
entertainments, and in the positions
most easily defended there will no
doubt be stubborn resistance. It is
hard to say whether a permanent
stand can be made, but there are slight
reasons for believing that such will

would seem that there will be nothing
to do but sound the retreat again.
Oyama is operating to the west, and
there is always the fear that he will
cut the Russian communications. II
has not been given out by the Rus
SLAMS whether they hope to hold their
present ground, or intend to delay the
Japanese advance only in order to gel
things in shape in Hardin, and pro
vide for protecting the line Of com
munications from that city toward the
west. But their intentions heretofore
do not seem to have cut much figure
and for some time to come their move
ments will, as in the past, probably be
determined by what Oyama succeeds
in doing.

Police Officer II. A. Stotko went back
to their work on the big safe in the
Office of Shinn & Co., on the corner of
Post and Railroad avenue.
Officer Stotko passed the Office of

boxcars on the track and left him for
dead. They robbed him of his gun
and took his star off his coat and
pinned it on the leg of his trousers.
The wounded man lay between the
tracks over half an hour after he was
shot. He could hear the robbers al
their work in the room near him, but
was unable to move. He heard them
fire the shot which tore off the outer
door of the safe, and later heard them
leave.
Merchants Police De Wlof found

"I'm shot"
| Stotko was taken at once to the 20.
lice station. 1t was found that he was
shot through the neck, the bullet en-.
tering the left side Of the neck and
penetrating the right shoulder. Stot.
kos body was paralyzed, but he was
still able to talk. He was taken to the
Sacred Heart hospital, where he was
examined by DR.. Gray. After the ex.
animation DR.. Gray held out little
hope for his recovery.
The safe blowing was very similar to
that at the Broadway pharmacy 9
short time ago. The knobs were
pounded off with tools stolen from the
new Bazelwood building and nitro
glycerine used. Three bales of hay
were brought up from the cellar ani
piled about the safe to deaden tn,
sound. The men did not have TIM

open the inner ones. There was very
little money in the safe, but larg'

The wounded officer has been on thu
police force since November 30, 1899
Previous to that he was in the EN-
ploy Of the Washington Water Power
company. He is a married man an(
lives with hisw life at 1923 Eleventh
avenue. Sergeant Hollaway said thi
morning that Stotko is a man Of ex
emplary habits and one of the mos
reliable men on the force. He coult
not understand how the robbers knew
how he was an officer, as he wa
wearing black stiff hat and had OF
his overcoat when shot. The sentr,
on guard evidently saw Stotko befor'
he had a chance to move.
Mayor Boyd this morning offered I
reward of $500 for the arrest of thu

Eskimo Tradition as TO Origin
of Human Family

The arctic Eskimos have their
tradition of the origin of man,
much the same as the Caucasian,
and their tales Of the prowess in
battle, their sagas relating the
past glories of what is now an
almost extinct race, areas thrilling
as some of those that tell of the
wondrous deeds of Odin and Thor
or of those Grecian ancients whose
deeds are yet preserved in prose
end poetry, says the st. Louis
Globe Democrat.
According to Eskimo tradition,
the first man was made not from
the dust of the earth, but from
piece of chewing gum, for be it
known that the InGian is the
original gum chewer as we'll as
tobacco smoker. But woman was
first. The first woman was lying
one day on her couch Of furs
chewing gum. Growing weary,
she took it from her mouth and
fashioned it into the form Of a
man. Tired then, she fell asleep,
to find upon her awakening that
the breath of life had been breath
ed into the figure of gum of which
she had been the architect, and.lo,
man was there And so the world |
began to be peopled.
1t is related as a fact that high |
upon a mountain to the north and !
east of Point Hope are the skeleton |

more by climate conditions and

probability rested upon the beach.
