HILL SLAVS GOAT
AVALON, Cal., March 18. Louie
W. Hill, president of the Great North

which had a span of horns measuring
thirty-one inches across, yesterday.
Mrs. Hill left on horseback for a ride
to the west . side of the island. Im
mediately after the news was received
here, Louis Hill, Jr., the oldest son of
the railroad magnet, commenced his
plans to best his father's reported
record. It had been arranged to takt
the little fellow horseback to Middle
ranch Tuesday. Several times while
practicing with the rifle the boy has
proved himself an excellent marks
man. The boy believes that he will
be successful in getting a great head.
Monocles In the English Army.
About a century ago a British army
order was issued forbidding officers to
wear eyeglasses or spectacles. But a
shortsighted officer belonging to a
crack cavalry regiment had no mind
to. resign his commission or stumble
blindly, and he invented the single
eyeglass. When called to account by
the authorities he claimed that the
monocle, being of the singular num
ber, did not contravene the order
agaiust spectacles and glasses in the
plural. Red tape accepted this literal
rendering of the law, and, becoming
popular in the British army, the mono
cle was in a short time adopted by
civilian beaus. London Globe. .
Tho Original Fruit Canners.
We are indebted to Pompeii for the
great Industry of canned fruit. Years
ago,-when the excavations were just
beginning, a party of Cinclnnatians
found in what had been the pantry of
a house many jars of preserved figs.
One was opened, and they were found
to be fresh and good. Investigation
showed that the figs had been put into
jars in a heated state, an aperture left
for the steam to escape and then seal
ed with wax. The hint was taken, and
the next year fruit canning was in
troduced into the United States, the
process being identical with that in
vogue at Pompeii twenty centuries ago.

CATTLE MARKET HAS
DOWNWARD TENDENCY
The Portland Union Stock Yards
Company report as follows:
. Receipts for the week have been
1846 cattle; 23 calves; 2122 nogs;
3251 sheep and 44 horses.
The cattle market at the week's
close shows a weakness and lower
prices as compaed with the week
previous. Cows and butcher stuff
sold out of proportion as compared
with the price of steers, occasioned
by the strong demand by the butcher
classes. Packers are heavily loaded
with steers and the shipment of dress
ed beef by middle states interests to
this markt has made it difficult for
Northwest killers to unload their sup
plies. There is an unfair tendency
on the part of inexperienced market
reporters to take top loads at river
markets and -make comparisons that
reflect on the point. The average
droves purchased by the packers at
Missouri river and Chicago point3 cost
fully one cent less than purchases
made at North Portland.
The hog market was steady to
strong throughout the week. The
same facts applying to the cattle pur
chased apply to hogs. For the first
time in two years a few tops at Chi
cago have sold at prices slightly in
advance of the Portland market, but
the average of the entire purchases
of Chicago packers were made at
prices fully l less than apply on this
market.
The sheep market was steady to
strong throughout the week. There
was an active, snappy demand for
all offerings, with an upward tend
ency all prices.

A Sailor's Yarn
By CLARISSA MACKIE
Oo4oooooooooo
"Yes, siree," ejaculated AUanias Sline
as he hitched his chair a little nearer
the redhot stove in Jabez Honey's
store, "1 coulcT tell you the strangest
story you ever listened to in all your
life if I didn't have to go to supper
now. That's the trouble with hotels
and boarding houses. If you ain't
around at meal times you don't get
enough to eat It's poor enough as 'tis
without being scrimped on it"
Jabez Honey looked both anxious
and apprehensive. He wanted to hear
the story that Ananias would tell so
convincingly that one could almost be
lieve it, even Ananias himself. Then,
again, the price of the story would be a
supper served to Ananias from the
shelves of the grocery store. If Jabez
did not fall to the bait of the hinted
story, why, Ananias would simply car
ry his tale across the street to Drake's,
where the clerks would be glad enough
to hand out anything Ananias asked
for rather than to miss one of his sto
ries. It was a stormy winter evening. It
had -been snowing for an hour, and
now, at supper time, the flakes were
hurling themselves against the store
windows with little hissing spats that
boded a long storm. It was lonely in
Jabez Honey's store. The loungers
were more likely to frequent Drake's
larger store.
"As I was saying, If I had time I
could tell you the queerest story you

ever heard,"' repeated Anauias, rising
to his feet and buttoning his overcoat
"Ho, hum!" he yawned. "Guess I'll
stop in Drake's a minute. Good night,
Jabez." - ' .
"What's the use of going?" asked Ja
bez weakly. "Can't you pick up a
supper here? I'll treat so long as
you're going to entertain me with a
story." .. r '
"I don't mind if 1 do," said Ananias
with alacrity, and he whipped out of
his overcoat, tossed it on a convenient

barrel and rubbed his hands expectant
ly. . .
Jabez got tip and moved toward the
cheese case. "What'll you have?" he
asked. "Crackers and cheese and a
glass of sweet cider?"
"num."' grumbled Ananias, frown
ing. "I've kinder cut out cheese and
crackers, Jabez. They seem to give
me indigestion.
"Well," began Ananias between huge
bites of a corned beef sandwich, ' "it
was when I was sailing past the Wea
ry islands down in the south Pacific
that this adventure happened to me.
We was bound home from Calcutta,
and the ship was the old Indus, Cap
tain Barnabas Fish commanding, but
if you expect Captain Fish to sub
stantiate this story you'll be disappoint
ed, because he was always a jealous
man and calculated to discount any
thing I might tell. Some captains are
that jealous of their first mates. .
"As I was saying, we sailed past the
Weary islands and was leaving 'em
far astern when Captain Fish took a
notion that the water we'd taken on
at Calcutta was bad tasting, and so
we put back to the Wearys for a sup
ply of fresh w-ater. You can't beat
them tropical islands for cold, spark
ling springs of pure water.
"The outermost one of the Weary
islands 4s a tiny little one that is sep
arated from the others by forty miles
or so. We was nearest that island,
which wasn't much more than a coral
reef covered with sand and with trees
growing on it and, springs of water
from somewhere down below. Captain
Fish said tt was an old island and
had been much bigger, only an earth
quake had swallowed most of it into
the water, and what was left of it
wasn't enough to support human ex
istence, all of which I didn't believe a
mite of.
" "Ananias," says the captain to me,
"you go ashore and get the water,'
and he gave me a couple of men and
some kegs to fill the big butts which
he had emptied as soon as he entered
the little harbor.
"As soon as we got ashore I set out
to look for a spring, and 1 found it not
far from the white beach. I set tbi
men to filling the butts while I looked
around for more springs and also to
see if there was any fruit on the la
land. I'm kinder partial to cocoa nuts.
"While I was looking I pushed fur
ther into the, jungly growth until 1
finally came ont on the other side of
the island, an'd there above me was a
tail cocoanut palm. On it I could see
just one cocoanut Dark brown it
was and peeping down -at me through
the palm branches kind of saucy and
tempting.
. " 'Oh. ho. Mr. Cocoanut," I says. '1
guess I'll get your .
"So I picked up a big stone from
the beach and hove it at the brown co
coanut Well, sir, 1 hit itl And it
come down, and behind it was a big
hairy body and two arms and two legs,
and the whole combination came at me
in great lcg leaps. -
"I run fast. Jabez Honey, but that
there monkey man could run faster,
sir. and it wasn't long before he caught
up with me, and Instead of jumping on
me and tearing out my eyes and hair
by handfuls, as I've heard tell they
did. he doubled up a great hairy fist
and struck me between the eyes.j 1
didn't see him for awhile after that
because, my head ached and I was ly

dark. ' T -
"When I opened my eyes this mon
key man sat beside me, watching me
with a sly grin on his homely face.

" "That's a poor excuse for attacking
an innocent man.' he said, with an ugly
look coming into his little eyes.
" 'A man?' I asked.
"'Why not? he growled, doubling
his fist again.
" 'Excuse me, mister, but I guess
you'll have to tell me about it," I said
as humble as 1 could muster, for I
could see he was easily riled, and I
wanted to hear the story.
" 'Got any 'baccy, mate?" he asked
coolly. -
" Yes, and a pipe,' I says, and save
him all I had. As soon as he was
smoking a more peaceful look came
into his face, and he seemed almost
civilized. .
" 'I'm the last inhabitant' he said at
last.
" 'Last one of where?' I asked.
" 'This here island. I was born and
raised here, and twenty years ago an
earthquake came, and most of the is
land was dumped into the sea, and I
was the only human being saved. I've
lived here all alone ever since, and I
expect to die right here.' He put his
head down on his knees and wept
real tears.
" 'My y friend.' says I, for I " was
moved by his emotion, 'why spend the
rest of your days in this forelorn is
land in the sea? Why can't you leave
it and go into the world?'
" 'My yacht is out of commission,"
he says, very sarcastic like.
" 'There's other vessels.' I hinted.
" 'But they don't put in' here." he
said.
" 'What's the matter with the one
that's in here now?' I asked, and at
that he jumped up and gave me a
queer look.
"'In here? Oh. Lord!" he yelled,
and began to leap toward that cocoa
nut palm. He was up it like a streak,
and once more 1 saw his brown face
looking like a ripe cocoanut as he
peered out But -the Indus was lying
behind him, and he didn't see her at
first
"When he did he gave vent to one
whoop and came down the tree and
made for the Indus, where the men
were going back and forth carrying
water on board without so much as
looking to see what had become of
me. I expect any one of 'em would
have been glad if I'd never gone back,
for some one would have liked my
berth.
"Well, sir. that man-monkey went
down to the boat and persuaded the
sailors to take him out to the Indus,
and Jabez, would you believe It when
I tell you that Captain Barnabas Fish
took that heathen savage, monkey
man on board the Indus and put him
in the crew and made a man of him?
Now, if it hadn't been for my adven
turous spirit that heathen monkey
man would never have been civilized.
What do you think of that, eh?"
Ananias Sline brushed the crumbs
of the last doughnut from his coat
and reached for his overcoat Jabez
Honey had listened to the story with
growing skepticism showing in his
face. He had witnessed the disap
pearance of 50 cents' worth of food,
and he appeared dissatisfied with the
returns.
"What do I think of it?" he asked
unpleasantly. "Maybe I'd have en
joyed It better, Ananias, if Captain
Fish hadn't told that same story here
last night, setting in that very chair,
only the story was different in some
ways."
"How was It different?" Ananias
was evidently taken aback, for his
face reddened even to the lid's of his
bulging light blue eyes.
"Captain Fish he said hff stopped
for water at the Weary Islands and
that he sent his first mate (he didn't
mention no names) ashore with some
men after fresh water. The mate
was missed after awhile, and they
found him, Ananias they found him
drinking mm with a shipwrecked
Portuguese sailor he'd found on the
island, and Captain Fish took the for
eigner aboard the Indus and let him
work his passage home."
Jabez Honey - smiled quizzically at
the abashed story teller. .
"That was a good story, Ananias,"
he said as he removed the debris of
Mr. Sline's feast "most aa good as
Captain Fish's story." ;
But Ananias had vanished into the
snowstorm, and if he heard the lest
remark he made no answer.
