were engaged in a wanton violation of

Tuesday's Oregonlan. Leaving Fort
land on their wheelt they went to the
mouth of Seappooee creek, and pawed
jeveral hour abootiog the young
grouse and pheasants, thai are hardly
more than able to fly. Some of the
residents of that vicinity are very
much inoeneed over the elaughtor of
the almoat helpleea birds. It le under
stood that the matter will be laid be
fore Game Froteotor MoGuire, and, if
uffiolent evidence ii forthcoming to
secure conviction, the young men will
likely pay dearly for their sport.
At Th bib Old Tkicm. As a result
of lbs reduction in the priee of flab on
the lower river an organised mob, sup
peeod to have been fishermen, last
Tuesday night destroyed about 100
fish traps in Bakor'i Uy. The plan
seemed to have been well arranged,
and lata in the evening the marauder!
congregated at Sand ialand, from
which point the party started on their
destructive mission. The traps torn
out were the property of B. A. Baaborg,
MoGowan A Sons and Samuel Elmer
and represent a good deal ot money
to the owners. No resistance was
made at any point by the owners of
the property, who taw what was going
on but at the same time were power
let to defend their property. More
trouble is anticipated.

ter bas been not infrequently men
tioned to as that young grouse, pheas
ants and Quails are being wantonly
slaughtered, the latter birds being not

should make it a point to watch thess
miscreants, and if possible, bring them
to justice. Tunir prey is almost en
tirely worthless, which only adds to
the enormity of their offense. The

matter wilh too little indifference onti!
thoes so inclined bsva corns to regard
their offvntet as a mattar-of-oourte,

was being Disced on their conduct

SlICS TO& Di.UAOKB.S, A. Mus-
grove, of Sauvio's island, commenced
an action last Monday, through his at
torney, X N. Sleeves, in Judge Shafc
tuck's court, against tne uregon nan
way A Navigation Company and Sam
uel Coulson, to recover 18705 dam
earea. and to have the judgment de
clared a lien upon the steamer R. R.
Thompson. This action arises out of
the flood of 1894. It is alleged thai
during tbe flood the water arose about
five fest around Muigrove s ouiiainga
on Sauvie's island, and that Samuel
Coulson. a captain of the R. R.
Thompion, rati her far out of the Co
lumbia river channel, ana so cioee to
the buildings that the waves from tbe
boat destroyed Musgrove's barna,
bouse and fence of the value of $2235.
Tbe action is for three times tbat
sum, and is brought noder chtpter 86
of Hill's Oregon code, which makes
the captain and bis employer name in
treble damagea. and makes such dam-
aeea a lien upon laid steamboat. This
is ths first action of tbis sort Drougnt
n this state, and the result of the suit
will be awaited witn interest oy steam

property, - ,;
Thhek Berry Pickbes. Three of
St. Helens' young men, while oat in
search of blackberrie one day not
long eince tn tbe vicinity of Gilbert
river, met with a peculiar experience.
They met an elderly gentleman, who
wa evidently a Herman, and wno wa
apparently fishing for crawfish. A
tbey passed on up tbe river, tins man
spoke to them in a harsh voice, say
ing : "Go on the other side ot tbe
river ; yon scare all the crawnen away."
But the boy did not heed hi warn
ing, for tbey thought they bad as mnch
right on Uncle Barn' domain at ne
did. so tbey kept right on, and this
made the old man very angry. Xnen
one of the boyt reached out oyer the
side of the boat to dip up some water,
wnen tbe old man screamed out:
"Don't yon touch dot puoy ; if yon do
I shoot yon mil de pullet true ana
true," and at tbe same time be was
nsing vulgar and profane language
to tbe utmoat of bie capacity. At laat
he started bis boat up stream and
made a bee-line for the bouse to get
hi gun, snd by the time he reached
his domicile tbe boys were exactly op
posite, so tbe demonstration oi tne
next few minute caused them to con
clude tbat it would lie safer to return
to their mammas. The boya tay tbey
will never forget the exciting time
tbey had with the unknown Dutch
man on Gilbert river.
