Events of That Section As Told By Port Orford Tribune. Born At Ophlr, Oregon, March 19, 1909, to the wife of Rufus King, twin boy babies, The Tribune sends best wishes and congratulations, and hopes tho little Kings may have a long and happy reign. C. W. Zumwalt had the misfor tune to lose a fine "Greenlaw" colt by a "Joe K" filly. A vicious cow killed the colt. i The most beautiful fish we ever saw was a Rain bow trout caught by Prank Clarno on Rogue river, recently, four miles from Its mouth. It weighed 12 lbs. WANTS EAKLY TRIALS. WASHINGTON; April 1. Bln gor Hermann, J. N. Williamson and other Oregon mon who have long rested under Indictment, some for more than four years, will bo given a speedy trial or else the Indictments against thorn will bo dismissed. Attorney-General Wlckcrsham has learned of tho manner In which tho trial of these cases has been staved off from time to time, and has given orders that such proceedings will no longor bo tolerated. These defend ants undor the Constitution are guar anteed a speedy trial, and If tho government after all this tlmo is un able to placo them on trinl other stops will bo taken to eloso tho cases. There Is no disposition to longer postpone these trials to suit tho convenience of any ono connected with tho prosecution, and It is there fore improbable that tho Hermann caso, If dropped, will bo turned over to some other than Honey for prosecution. A Coroner's inquest was held over the body of John Sullivan, and the cause of his death was attributed to heart failure. Dr. S. J. Mann was attending physician. It is reported that the purchaso of the Jo Nay farm on Elk River by Prof. J. S. Capps has fallen through because tho Lee-Bowlder Company of Denmark havo turned down the pur chase of Mr. Capps place at Denmark. It Is said that Milton and Asher Moore havo rented tho store build ing In Alf Gauntlett's new hall In Gold Beach, and will start a good store In a few weeks. Asher will run a blacksmtlh shop, and Milt will run the store. Fishing for steolhearis on Rogue river ceased for the year on March 5th, the close of the season. Fish wore plantlful at tho time and fish ermen were reluctant to fold their nets and quit. The season should extend to March 15th. Mr. Crow who has been working on Capo Blanco beach for Mr. Phelps, says that Mr. Phelps' method of sav ing gold is all right, and that he is making money, and has sand enough to work all summer if water holds out. He has a gasoline engine set on the bank and elevates the sand to tho machine, which saves both gold and platinum. The ranchers are very busy down tho coast, ,and those who have dry land have tholr crops of oats mostly In. Tho Moore boys, George Wood ruff, Will Coy, and Gene and Will White, are all putting up new and splendid fonces. John Fromm has In a larger acreage of oats than usu al. From Ophlr to Port Orford the ranchers are making a fine showing, while L. Knapp is doing wonders on his Hubbard's creek farm.

EGGS WHEN THE PRICE IS HIGH TO TRY NEW PLAN. of To Portland to Vote On Adoption Gothenburg Liquor Hrlu'iuc. PORTLAND. Ore., April 1. placo tho liquor business of Port land In the hands of one corporation, eliminating tho Individual saloon keoper, la tho object of an Initiative petition which Is being circulated by 3 8 agents for tho Portland Gothen burg Association. For the privilege of having this monopoly tho associa tion agrees to pay the city of Port land $3,825,000 for a franehiso for 10 years, and rogulato tho sale of liquor strictly and keop Its salo con fined to tho business district nnd keep saloons out of tho rosltloiico dis trict.

Mr. Merrill who has been run ning a tunnel all winter on his Elk river mine, has at last penetrated tho ledge a dlstanco of 5 feet. Tho oro Is telurliim and tho ledge will probably be 10 or 12 feet wide. He left hero for Oakland, Cal Monday, taking with him enough ore for a milling test, and Is confident from assays mado that he has a great mine. He expects to return soon to rosumo work by enlarging the tun nel Into a working tunnel, building a wagon road to tho mine, and getting things In condition for operating the mine as soon as possible. CHANGES IN BASEBALL RULES IN A NUTSHELL A substituted pitcher must pitch until the man at bat, when the pitcher takes his position, has either boon put out or reaches flrst base. In caso of Interference with a Holder or batsman, tho ball Is not In play until tho pitcher, standing in his position holds It, and tho umpire calls "play." A batted ball that touches the per son of the umpire or a player "while on or over fair ground" is a fair hit; and a batted ball that touches the person of tho umpire or of a player "whllo on or over foul ground" is a foul hit. Any ground rule must bo accept able to tho captain of tho visiting team; and If objeetlonablo to said vlslitiig captain the umplro has the power to adopt or reject said ground rule or rules. To get plenty of eggs In winter tho experts recommend that the hens be forced to molt during mid summer. To do this a writer In the Reliable Poultry Journal gives the following method: "During June I feed oats and wheat. At first I give them the usual quantity, gradually reducing it until I feed a flock of twenty hens only about one pint of oats and wheat mixed, three times a day. This is plenty for this size pen of utility fowls. Scatter tho wheat and oats In litter of some kind. Keep the birds on that ration until about the Fourth Of July and then gradu ally Increase until you get them back to the regular feed, which is about a handful for each ono of wheat, oats, Kaflr-corn, barley, or buckwheat. About three mornings in tho week feed mash mado of cornmeal wheat bran, shorts or middlings and Hnseedmeal, using about equal parts of each. Allow about one quart of the mixture to twenty hens. A little salt, lesr than a teaspoonful, and a little black pepper should be added to the mash, and It should be wet only enough so that It will crumble when you throw It Into a trough or on a board. Never feed mash on the ground or In dirt. See that the troughs or boards are cleaned nfter each feeding. Two or three times o week feed them cut bone or beef scrap and give them plenty of green food, such as blue-grass, clover o, cabbage. In winter time clover hay or alfalfa is a line sub stitute for cabbage. If you force your utility hens to molt early, you will be sure of a good supply of eggs in the winter when prices are high."
