The ioys of Chemical 2, at First street, near Jefferson, have invented a perpetual-mo- Ilon machine, designed to pump water for tock while the herder sits in the shade ft a tree and reads his newspaper. A K'heel, on each of the spokes of which the Cgure "6" is placed, is supposed to fur bish the motive power. On one side of Ihe wheel these figures will appear as "6," mile in turning on the other they De- tome "9." One side of the wheel being thus 33 per cent heavier than the other, Ihe wheel cannot help revolving, and so Ian be harnessed to any kind of useful work, such as pumping water, sawing rood, grinding coffee, etc The inventors Ihink they can beat Mr. Moon's machine L1I hollow, and are anxious to have that rentleman return from the East, so that match can be arrahcred. Visitors to the inglne-house can hav6 the principle of Ihe new motor explained, with the os- llstance of the picture, which makes the latter as clear as mud. First Contribution for Boers. iayor Storey yesterday received a note Irom Miss Julia Osgood, at the Hobart- -urtls, inclosing a check for J2a, money tamed in Portland, as a contribution to Ihe fund for the relief of Boer widows Lnd orphans. This is the first contribu tion of the kind Mayor Storey has re ceived, and he says he will hold It for 20 fays and send all the money received up lo that time at once to the proper agent New York. Mayor Storey states that ae is not soliciting funds for any pur pose, nor Is he receiving any money to Luy ammunition or anything of the kind lor the Boers. All he has to do with the latter is to Teceive and forward any innAV conf tn Mm fnr rhr fnnrl tnr tho Fellef of the widows and orphans of Joers. Anxious to Fioht.

The open season for trout begins tomorrow, and as "weather prospects are favorable, it te not likely that many fishermen will spend Sunday in the city. Scores' of them have their plans all laid to be on some favorite stream before the sun rises to morrow, and some even started last night, so aa to be ahead of time, and it is to be feared that the sight of tho purling stream "may tempt them to violate the law. However, the man who expects to be the first to -wet his line tomorrow morn ing in any good trout stream within a radius of 50 miles from this city will need to get up early. In many places the coun try boys will have fished the streams to day, in order to "get ahead of the town fellows." Business has been lively with dealers In sporting goods for tho past week. Rods, reels and lines have been put in repair or replaced by new ones. Fly-books have been stocked up with the latest creations in that line, and bait boxes and a supply of salmon roe have not been forgotten, In case the trout "will not rise to a fly. As one old fisherman remarked, "It may not be sportsmanlfko to fish with salmon roe, but when trout will not take a fly I bellevo in giving them what they want" Persqns who do not desire to embarrass fishermen on their return will not ask them where they caught their fish, for such questions are rarely answered truthfully. Pigeon-Shoot. Apigeon-shootlng match for a silver cup will take place at- the Irvington racetrack, beginning at 2 o'clock sharp. The match is between the Blind Slough Sporting Club and the Deer Island Sporting Club, six on a side, and so blue rock pigeons will be used by each side. The contestants have been shooting ducks all winter at Deer Island and Blind Slough, and so are in g'ood training, and as the match Is to decide which club has the best shots, there is likely to be some good shooting. The contestants will, how ever, find that there is a difference In shooting at a duck coming to decoys and a clay pigeon thrown from a trap. Baled Hat for Cape Nome. As a large number of horses are to be taken to Cape Nome by the first steamers sail ing from this port, men here are con templating putting up a special press to bale hay for shipment to that place. There is a press out in the country which will compress a ton of hay Into a space of 75 cubic feet, or a cube about 4& feet square. This is much more compact than an ordinary press can bale hay, and as freight to Cape Nome will be rather cost ly, it will be an advantage to have hay put in as small a space as possible. Clo ver hay will cost, baled, about $12 per ton, and timothy about $14. Coast Harbor "Work. Since the stormy weather "which delayed work on the Coos Bay jetty Is over, construction Is being pushed rapidly on that Improve ment New bents have been added to the tramway to the number of 26, which means an Increase in the length of over 415 feet There is still about 700 feet to be built, -which Captain Harts, United States Engineers, In charge, hopes to complete with tho present appropriation. Work is also proceeding favorably on the Coqullle jetty, and 21 out of the 40 bents required are in, so that the Jetty is more than half completed. Agreement to Be Simplified. At a meeting yesterday morning of the execu tive committee of the Cured Fruit Asso ciation It was decided that the contract between the assoclatioff and Individual fruitgrowers, heretofore adopted and dis tributed for signatures, was too cumber some and ambiguous. The 'contract was referred to Lawyer "W. "W. Cotton for condensation and simplification. Reports made by members of the executive com mittee were to tho effect that fruitgrowers favor the plan of the association and are signing the agreement Pastor Resigns. Rev. R. "W. Farquhar, pastor for 2 years of the Hassalo-Streot Congregational Church, tendered his res ignation at the business meeting of the church Thursday evening, .to take effect the last of April. Mr. Farquhar's minis trations to this church have been Tery acceptable, and many -will regret the sev erance of pastoral relations and his de parture. It is learned that It is his in tention to go abroad and spend the Sum mer at his old home in Scotland, from "which he has been absent 19 years. Expects IiArger Bids. Frank Hach eney, assignee of the Union Banking Com pany, will today open sealed proposals for the purchase of the assets of the com pany. He had received yesterday half a dozen sealed proposals, and feels confident of securing a much better bid than on the first occasion, when tho only bid submit ted for $60,000 of assets was $160.

DlfflCHlt Maneuvers Executed Witli the Precision. o Veteran. SeL. diea-s ClHfe-STrfBglHK. There was one man in tho gymnasium of the Multnomah Club yesterday afternoon, a rather prepossessing pianist, but he looked like SO cents. The reason for his singular aspect was that beside him in the room were 500 women, some In newly blooming Spring hats and smart street suits, some in other varieties of raiment, and still others in the natty blouse and bloomer gymnasium suit of the Multno mah Club "Woman's Annex, which, under the guidance of Miss Alice H. Hitchcock, was giving its annual exhibition drill. The hall was handsomely decorated with an American flag, a number of vaulting horses, parallel bars and hurdles grace fully grouped on the floor, and a hand some running track, festooned around the wall, some six feet beneath the celling. Long before the appointed hour a com mon, but effective expression tho guests began to arrive. They came singly, in pairs, in quartets and battalions, and they all came in petticoats, for this was the one day of the year when the gymnasium is sacred to femlnlrilty, and the lords of creation were barred. By 3 o'clock, the hour fixed for beginning the programme, the circus seats and galleries were crowded as full as they would hold with the friends and admirers of the young athletes who were to bo the entertainers of the afternoon. There was an excited buzz, like tho sound of many circular saws at a great distance, in the air, and the flitting figures of the performera to be seen now and then served to whet the appetites of the spectators for whafl was coming. At 3 perhaps not on the exact stroke, but promptly enough for all prac tical purposes the pianist extracted a rag-time march from the Instrument be fore him, and the class, which Miss Hitch cock had adroitly concealed behind a flag stretched across one end of the hall, came forth and deployed on the floor, going through a number of maneuvers with the ease of the little glass beads in a kaleido scope and the precision of a drill of a crack army company. As they marched, the spectators had an opportunity to gath er in the details of the costumes, which were severely simple. Looso blouse, looser bloomers, black stockings these were their chief component parts. A snowy col lar gave a dash of brightness to the gen eral somber tone, and some latitude was employed in neckties, . which were, as a rule, however, of some quiet and unob trusive hue. Miss Hitchcock, the leader, was distin guished by a red belt and red necktie, the fluttering ends of the latter resembling the wings that spread from the famous Mult nomah M. The marching was not only exceedingly graceful and pretty, but executed with a snap and precision that would do credit to any regiment of mllltla that ever turned out on tho glorious Fourth. The align ment was almost perfect, and whea the whole company, of something llko 30 mem. bers. marched across the floor as one ma woman, the galleries forbore to cheer no longer. Several pretty and intricate figures were executed, as ballet masters would love to have their pupils do Ire the marching figures to which the young women of the stage are sometimes schooled. As one new picture after an other was nalnted on the floor by tho trlmly-clad young women, the spectators applauded till they threatened to burst their gloves. The marching at an end. Miss Hitchcock gave the class a brief respite, and then, lining them up on the floor, put them through a callsthenlc exercise which ex emplified the poetry of motion. There was an entire absence of awkward and un gainly poses that are sometimes deemed necessary to the proper development ot the body, all the attitudes being graceful and attained with apparent ease. A live ly polka accompanied this movement, and one might have imagined that the mem bers of the class were operated by strings attached to the keys of the Instrument, so like clockwork did they move. The calisthenics being over, the pianist smote his Instrument and it gave forth a march, to the time of which the class disappeared behind one end of the flag, emerging at the other, each member laden with a pair of Indian clubs. After a brief marching drill, they took up po sitions for club-swinging, and an Instant later the piano ground out a dreamy waltz, and the clubs were twinkling through the air, with the Industry, though not the appearance, of so many Dutch wind mills. This number was a particularly pretty one, the figures swung being all of them graceful and elegant, and the swing ers being remarkably well drilled. After resting a spell, in order to give the musician a chance to get his eecond wind and devote his talents to the produc tion of an opus of the reel description, a limited number of young women took the floor and proceeded to execute a dance known to fame as the Irish Lilt Tho steps were bright and lively, something of a cross between a sailor's hornpipe and a Highland fling, and the ease and beauty with which they were taken evoked vocif erous applause. In fact, if ever there was provocation for an encore this was the occasion, but the pianist was out of condition, and begged so plteously to be excused that Miss Hitchcock consented to allow him to fold his music and depart The two small boys who shifted the apparatus, dragged on the floor hurdles, vaulting horses and parallel bars, which a number of class members proceeded to use liberally. Swinging from overhead rings and landing the other side of a hurdle bar wastaklngplace on one sldo of the gymnasium, while high Jumping was going on at the other. This kept tho audience in the exuberant state of spirits which only a three-ring circus or similar tantalizing form of amusement can pro duce, but It was not for long, for. after some remarkably good work, tho beat of Extra Hosiery Specials Children's Ironclad fast black Hose, sizes 5 to 8V4; standard value, 20c; to day, 10c pair.

The concluding number and star at traction of the afternoon was the grand relay race, sides being chosen for the purpose. As the fortunes of the opposing forces shifted, the excitement of the spec tators waxed more Intense, till they finally burst Into cheers, that set the rafters reverberating. Honors were so evenly di vided at tho finish that It was only at tha imminent risk of making enemies that the judges awarded the prize a handBome basket of flowers. The exhibition, on tho whole, was ex ceedingly creditable to both Miss Hitch cock and her pupils, and If tho male mem bers of the Multnomah Club think they are the whole thing, they need only ask tho pianist or the two small boys who were present at the exhibition yesterday afternoon and they will learn a few facts. PPGET SOUND SALMON TRUST Report That All Snares in ine Pro posed Combine Have Been Taken. George T. Myers, the veteran cannery man, arrived hero yesterday from Puget Sound. In reply to an Inquiry as to the prospects for the consummation of a com bine of the salmon canneries on Puget Sound, he stated that before leaving Seat tle he received a telegram from Delafleld, McGovern & Co., of New Tork, stating that the stock of the new company had all been subscribed. A later telegram to men at Fairbaven ' from Mr. McGovern satisfied them that he would return to the Sound about the first week In April. From what Mr. flyers has heard in con nection with this matter he is satisfied that the options given by a number of canners on the Sound will be accepted. A Puget Sound paper publishes an in terview with Mr. Myers, who Is reported as saying that the outlook for the salmon business the coming season is exception ally bright as seven-eighths of last year's pack has already entered consumption, and this means high prices. He thinks the out look more encouraging for Puget Sound and Frr.ser River than for the Columbia River. His observations have led him to base his estimate of the pack of the Columbia River on the amount of rainfall or snowfall in the mountains. This year, from all the best information he can get, he has been led to believe that tho snow fall In the watershed of the Columbia has been a very light one. At the same time mild, open weather has prevailed to a large extent, and much of the snowfall has already melted. The great run of fish in the Columbia comes after the melt ing of the snow in June and July, and this year on account of the light snow fall there will be but small freshets, and consequently, he thinks, a light run of fish in the Columbia. On the Sound, Mr. Myers says, the same conditions do not exist The fish do not have to wait for the freshets, but after entering the straits from the ocean they pass on up and in time either enter the Fraser River or seek the spawning grounds of the upper bays and rivers of tho Sound. Owing to the establishment of hatcheries on Fraser River seVeral years ago, Mr. Myers says, it Is reasonable to expect a, good run of fish In Fraser River this year. According to Mr. Myers prognostica tions, prospects are favorable for a good fishing season everywhere In this region except on the Columbia. The "Columbia River combine and outside canneryman are looking for a better run than that of last year, and say If It does not como It will shake their faith In the hatchery busi ness. It is an old saying among Co lumbia River fishermen that the higher the water the greater the run of salmon, but "all signs fall In a dry time," and this theory does not always prove cor rect There was plenty of water last year, though not an unusual flood, and high water lasted a long time; so long, in fact, as practically to prevent the opera tion of seines on the seining grounds. Tho seiners look for a small Juno rise this year, and hope to make by catches on their seining grounds, and all con cerned hope for a larger pack than that of last year.
