Fined for Shooting Grouse. Game
Warden L. P. W. Quimby has received a
note from Charles M. Kissinger, his Dep
uty at Eugene, etatlng that on Monday
Mr. Kissinger succeeded In securing the
conviction of Charles Brown, one ot i.u
gene's sly hunters, for killing grouse out
of season. He had three men arrested,
and on the understanding that the oi.hr
two, Ed Sloan and J. W.' Cayler ehoulQ
be discharged. Brown pleaded guilty un I
was fined $28 50, including costs. The mall
grouse are "hooting" now, and fall i.n
easy prey to any one accustomed to au u
ing them. It is a shame to shoot these
birds at this season, when they are about
to beg.n nesting, for while a young grouse
Is one of tie most delicious of game birds,
an old hooier, which has been living on fii
buds all winter, is as tough as a bo 'cd
owl, and taates like turpentine. Of late
years, s.nce hunters have had the Ting-
neck pheasants to " amuse them, gruu&u
have been increasing in numbers, and if
gl en a fair show would soon be as nlen
tiful as ever.. By the way, if Deputy
"W arden Kissinger only knew it, he is en
title to a. reward of $10 offered by the
Oregon Fish and Game Assoc atlon for the
convection of any one guilty of shooting
gr.me birds out of season.
Potatoes Ann Cheap. Curbstone no
ta:o-buyers are having it all their own
way with the farmers now, and are bear
ing the market for amusement. They aro
net bulng, but are telling the farmer
wat they will not pay. They laugh at
the iiea of 50 cents per eack, and even 40
ccr.ts Is not to be thought of, but 25 cents
vr aid be about the conect figure. The
fact .s that owing to the early season the
pr ce of potatoes in San Francisco has
gvr.c down, but a Front-afreet commission
man eaid yesterday that his last shipment
brought him ?1 15 per sack, and that he
ha J Just bought a lot at 62& cents per
cental, or about 80 cents per sack. These
were flrst-class potatoes, and, of course,
there are many that would not bring so
much. As the season Is far advanced and
so-called new potatoes are In the mar
ket, farmers are anxious to get their
potatoes off their hands, and some will
doubtless sell for a very low price, and
perhaps find afterwards that they would
have done better to hold them. They
would have done better to sell them a
month, or several months ago, and cat.
scarcely fail to lose by having held them
to lorg. As a farmer remarked yesterday.
it is a pretty good time to Bell wheat and
potatoes when they are ready for market
No Mors Smelt. The season for Co
lumbia River smelt is at an end. The
last of the vast schools of these fish, after
tons and tons- of them have been captured,
have passed on to their spawning grounds
at the head water of the Cowlitz River,
and only an occasional box captured from
the rearguard by Indians comes to the
market. The season has been a long one.
tho first smelt arriving here about Decern
bcr 4, and selling for 59 cents per pound,
and with the exception of a few days dur
lng the cold snap, which began February
14, they have been in the market ever
since, at times selling for 5 cents per
pcund, and sometimes as low as 3 cents, so
every one here has had all the smelt he
'wanted, and many tons have been shipped
to various parts of the country. The sal
mon fishing season will begin April 15,
and tnen Chinook salmon will bo obtain
able at some price, and soon Columbia
Elver shad will be In the market. Tin
trout-fishing season begins April 1, but
their sale is prohibited. Lucky persons
who have a friend among the trout fisher
men may receive a few now and then as
a present, and this will causo them to be
keenly appreciated.
Will Do Little Work. Outside of the
regular routine street and sewer work.

that the committee on streets has reported
favorably on the ordinance sent in by the
water commltee, the object of which Is
$o prevent damage to water and gas pipes
from electric currents, and It may be
passed. The ordinance from the Board of
Fire Commissioners, the object of wnich
is to protect firemen from being Injured
jby electric wires, has not been acted upon
oy the committee yet, and Is not likely
to Tecelvo attention till after election. The
ordinances In regard to the railroad fran
chise on Front street, and the street-railway
on Fifth and South First streets,
will De laid over. In fact, all legislation
is likely to be run under a slow bell until
after election.

bo successful.

Where the Dirt Is Going. For the
past week a string of dump carts, loaded
with earth, have been crossing Morr.son
street bridge to the East Side. This la
very unusual, and many people have won
dered where the earth came from, and
where it was taken to. Tho earth is from
tho excavation for the foundation of the
Oregon Telephone Company's new build
ing, at West Park and Alder, and it is be
ing used to make a Jill or embankment
around the Standard Oil Company's prop
erty. After the fire at the company's ware
houses, they agreed to build a wall around
their block up to the street grade, and,
where necessary,- to build a preventative
of danger from any fire which may occur
therein the future. It is quite a long
haul to take earth there from West Park
and Alder, but this Is probably the cheap
est way of getting it there.
Board of Public Works Meets. A
brief session of the Board of Public
Works was held yesterday afternoon. The
City Engineer's acceptance of th sewer
In Vaughn street, from Twenty-fifth street

up, and, after some discussion, laid over
till next meeting.

FINE MELODRAMA.
'Toll Gnic Inn" Delleht an Audi
ence at the Mnrquam.
Manager Hellig sprang a pleasant little
surprise on his patrons last night when
ho treated them to the hardly heralded
"Toll Gate Inn." This rattling good show
depends more upon its genuine merits and
Intelligent Interpreters for advertisement
than upon glaring posters. Its first
appearance has made a very favorable
Impression, Judging from the curtain calls.
"Toll Gate Inn" deals with colonial days,
and appeals strongly to .the patriotic feel
ings of the audience, and. with the charm
ing love story Interspersed, together make
a pretty story. The play smacks very
strongly of Fenimore Cooper's novels;
tho rustic colonial peaceful home and lov
ing hearts torn by the arrest of the son
as a spy. the heroic deeds of his sister,
and the defense of him and her country,
the British officer In disguise in the Amer
can camp, tho highly idealized Indian, the
friend and protector of the colonial home,
aro all there. Shenandoah Is suggested
In several respects. The love story of tho
Southern girl with the Northern soldier
Is replaced by the royalist girl and the
Revolutionary Captain. Tho rattle of
musketry and the return of dusky and
wounded scouts suggest the modern war
drama.
Sylvia M. Bldwell, as Hester Penning
ton, the daughter of the royalist, did ad
mirably throughout, especially In the ten
derer passages of the love scenes with the
colonist Colonel, the conflicting emotions
of devotion to her father's cause and love
for her sweetheart being very well
brought out. Helena Winter, as the Colo
nel's sister, was pretty and vivacious.
Miss Dickie Delar, as Aunt Harriet,
helped out tho hesitating Dr. Abner won
derfully well in his comedy, long-drawn-out
love-making.
Tho best work of the evening was done
by John B Weeks, as Poatchle, the loyal
half breed Indian. He was strong and con
sistent throughout, his make-up and dic
tion being fine. David Murray, as Colonel
Maltland, and Arthur L. McCormick, as
Ned Pennington, the supposed spy, and
W. A. Brummell, as Captain Snell, the
British spy. were all well cast.
Tonight will be the only opportunity of
seeing this clever performance.

"HOLY MOSES" BAKER
TOTS DARIXG SWINDLES. AGAIN
PLAYING HIS GAME.
Victims Fleeced by Fake Publica
tion. Falselr Purporting to Be
Backed by Southern Pacific.
Correspondence between Southern Pa
cific officials here and in San Francisco,
dating back to November 10, 1S99, tells
an interesting story regarding two men,
E. N. Baker and A. N. Hanson, formerly
of Los Angeles. Appearances would in
dicate that this pair is engaged in a
swindling operation, and should be ex
posed, so that they may not gull any more
victims. As far back as August 26, 1B95,
attention was called to the proposed pub
lication of a work entitled "West of the
Rocky Mountains," by Messrs. E. N.
Baker and A. H. Hanson, above referred
to. The Southern Pacific's circular of the
date last mentioned stated that Baker
and Hanson, or theu agents, were rep
resenting to persons whom they ap
proached for patronage, and as a means
for obtaining such patronage, that the
Southern Pacific Company is backing up
the scheme, is putting up the 'money, and
that It will be responsible for the publi
cation of tho book, and that Baker and
Hanson are employes of the company.
The company's agents were Instructed to
deny "Immediately and emphatically" all
such representations.
A circular letter from the company's
headquarters at San Francisco, dated No
vember 10, 1S99, signed by General Pas
senger Agent Goodman, says:
"My object In addressing this circular
to you Is to advise that the promised -volume
has never been published, and dur
ing the past six months we have had let
ters from different individuals advising
that the above-mentioned Baker was can
vassing for this so-called work, and evi
dently making it appear that this com
pany is at the back of the scheme. This
we most emphatically deny, and we again
take this opportunity of sending a warn
ing notice to our agents to beware of this
man Baker, and whenever opportunity of
fers to expose his swindling operations.
"His plan of operation is to obtain from
individuals advance payments for defray
ing so-called expenses of engraving por
traits and other views, which, of course,
are never produced, and In course of time
we are in receipt of letters from these vic
tims of Baker's rascality. Inquiring as to
the nonappearance of the book, and fur
thermore If our company is responsible
for Its publication.
"We, of course, in every case- reply to
these letters and explain our position In
the matter, and the fact that they havo
been grossly swindled. We have no posi
tive Information as to the whereabouts
of this man Baker at the present time.
When last heard from he was operating
in Oregon and Washington."
The Southern Pacific's sentiments aro
unmistakable, for Genef&l Passenger
Agent Goodman hopes to be able to lo
cate these palpable frauds, and take such
action as may bring them speedily to
Justice.
Some six months ago The Oregonian
exposed Baker, and the San Francisco
papers have repeatedly done the sam
thing. He operated very extensively
years ago in New Mexico, where he be
came known as "Holy Moses" Baker.
This was due to an advertisement in
which ho promised, for $1, to mall a book
containing some very spicy reading, and
on receipt of the dollar he sent out a
cheap edition of the Bible, referring the
parties to certain passages on the order
named.
In his latest scheme. Baker uses a let
terhead showing headquarters of "The
Pacific West and Northwest," with E.
Norman Baker as manager. His latest
victims hall from .North Yakima, Wash.
He uses a receipt "to apply on cost of
engraving and printing to cover write
up," etc., in a publication which the re
ceipt states will be distributed with the
compliments of tho Southern Pacific Com
pany. It is admittedly not an easy matter to
catch Baker, as the people who have been
swindled are extremely loath to have the
facts published. George L. Kelly, of the
New York Life Insurance Company, in
this city, with offices In the Chamber
of Commerce building, has a letter of In
quiry from Bert E. Parton, of North
Yakima, In regard to one W. A. Gllmore,
who has been soliciting advertising In
that territory for the publications pur
porting to emanate from Norman Baker.
Mr. Parton was victimized to the ex
tent of $67 50.
There was published in the San Fran
cisco Chronicle of March 12 a press dis
patch from Chicago, stating that the
Southern Pacific's representatives there
were endeavoring to run down three
swindlers who had been unlawfully using
the name of the company to further cer
tain nefarious schemes. Although tho
names were not given. It Is possible that
tho.se men are Baker and Hanson.
Whether Baker or any of hi confeder
ates have attempted to "work" Portland
people or not Is not yet known. If they
have done so. the facts are pretty sure to
come- out soon.

PORTLAND. March 20. (To the Editor.)
A press dispatch from Sioux Falls, S. D..
In your issue of today, states that Mrs.
Elizabeth T. Struble. editor of the Nauti

been fined for sending obscene literature
through the malls.
As a Christian Scientist I wish to state
that the Nautilus, which was flr6t issued
by Mrs. Struble In Portland, was not a
Christian Science newspaper, nor had It
anything in common with Christian Science.
Mrs. Struble has never at any time been
a Christian Scientist, nor had any con
nection with Christian Science work, and
when the Nautilus was published In Port
land It was discountenanced by Christian
Scientists.

A WONDERFUL CHILD.
Lola Cotton, at the Fredericksburg,
a Genuine Sensation Her Powers
Are Marvelous.
Many of Portland's citizens last even
ing availed themselves of the privilege of
seeing Lola Cotton, the 6-year-old child
performing feats called "Thought Trans
ference," which surpass the exploits of
older experimenters in the occult and the
psychological. Not a few of those who
went to the Fredericksburg Music Hall
as doubters were readily convinced of her
remarkable powers. What is the key to
the secret locked in her childish breast?
Does Lola know more than she will tell?
Or, knowing nothing about it, does the
secret He in the unconscious subservience
of he'r brain to another's controlling In
fluence? All that Lola does Is performed
In the presence of her father, J. L. Cotton.
Tho questions answered by her are asked
by him, although suggested by peoplo In
the audience. While bllndioidea, sne win
make arithmetical calculations from fig
ures written on a blackboard, direct the
move In a game of chess, and readily name
objects which she cannot see. All In all,
the performance Is most varied and enter
taining. It must be seen to be fully ap
preciated. Little Zola appears each even
ing this week at the Fredericksburg.
