THE MOBXIXG OEEGOXIAN, SATURDAY, MA'S 20, 1000. CITY NEWS IN BRIEF KjLtED Destructive Animals. The dr.y of the trapper has not altogether Tossed In Oregon, at least as far as Tilla mook County Is concerned, for yesterday J. D. Morris. of that county, brought In Ills lest Winter's collection of furs, which Jie sold without any haggling to a Front street commission firm for J15G. Mr. Morris must have whipped his weight In wildcats, as he had the skins of 23 of these animals. He had also the skins of 31 civet cats, or small skunks; 22 musk rats. 24 mink. 13 coons, 13 bears and six otters. Nearly all these animals were caught since the 1st of February, and the skins were In fine condition. One of the bears was killed within half a mile of TUamook City, and a year ago Mr. Morris killed one Inside the city limits. IHe received $2 bounty on each of the 29 'wildcat skins, and says the bounty has Ked to the killing of a large number of "these animals. He says the people of Multnomah County are opposed to the bounty law because there are not many wild animals In this county. He says the wildcats he killed would have destroyed more deer than all the hunters in the county, as they lay .for the young fawns and destroy a great many of them. In his opinion It is but little use to enact laws tfor the protection of game unless a bounty Es paid for killing animals which destroy the game. The pack of furs brought in y Mr. Morris is the largest seen here for some time. Shad Plentiful. Shad are still coming up from the seining grounds about Pillar Rock in large quantities and of excellent quality. The number of roe shad is much larger than that of the male shad, and Shey average considerably heavier. Roe :shad of six to eight pounds are numerous, -and one of 1( pounds and another of 10 pounds have been noted, while quite a number of from 9 to 9 pounds have been seen; but few male shad of over Ave pounds are found. Shad retail in the jmarkets here at 5 cents per pound, and the roe sells for 20 cents, and as they arc .fine fish, a great many are sold here, and many more are shipped up count! y. Not wlthstandlnfeTfiat the Columbia produces the finest salmon In the world, good sal mon are scarce in the markets, and deal ers have to pay 10 cents to 12 cents per pound for the who.e fish. On this account inany salmon of a cheaper grade are shlppo-1 in from Pugct Sound and outside strea'ns. Including many steelheads and sl!vers!des. and a person who wishes to feajt on real chinook needs to be a Judge of salmon. Rev. D. C. Garrett III. Rev. David Claiborne Garrett, formerly rector of Trin'ty Episcopal Church. In Portland. Is reported very ill from nervous prostra tion, at Lake Forest. 111. He is the pres ent rector of St. Luke's Church in San Francisco, and was obliged to give up the position temporarily, nearly i three months ago, on account of poor health. Ills prolonged absence from his San Francisco charge occasions unrest among the congregation of St. Luke's, according to the San Francisco Chronicle, and there is considerable talk of calling some one else to ill. his place. While in Portland. Mr. Garrett endeared himself to the mem bers of Trinity Church by his lndefatlga L!e labors on their behalf. He was known to 3oe working far beyond his strength. His present abode Is near Chicago. Big Tree Blown Down. The violent wind Thursday uprooted and threw down one of the large Ilr trees in the City Park, which stood on the west side of the sunken pathway from the seal pond to the spring near the summit. In its fall the tree crushed an outhouse, and the broken trunk and branches blocked the pathway. Parkkeeper Myers has had men at work cutting up the tree and removing the debris, and the place will soon be in order again, but it will take several hun dred years to replace the old tree. It has been dead at the top for many years, and was struck by lightning and some what cracked several years ago, and prob ably it is Just as well that it is out of the ii ay. Not a Record-B rearing Sturgeon. An English paper gives an account of ""the largest sturgeon on record." which was recently caught In the North Sea. It weighed 523 pounds, and damaged the nets In which It was entang.cd to the amount of ?750 before It was killed. Forty pounds of the "meat" was sent to Queen Victoria, sturgeon being a royal perquisite by act of Edward II. A few years ago a sturgeon caught in the Columbia River was displayed In this city, which was 13 feet In length, weighed 670 pounds, and contained half a barrel of caviar. Larger ones have been seen here, but they are not common. Order of Railroad Conductors' Ninth annual excursion. Sunday, May 27. To The Dalles, Round-trip tickets, 51.

Relation Bet-rreea Betterments and Lowering- Rates. The general tendency of the railroad companies. East and West, Is to 6cale down their freight and passenger tariffs. The recent action of the Northern Pa cific and Great Northern, as well as that of the O. R. & N., In reducing passen ger rates to 3 cents per mile, is signifi cant. Reductions are being gradually made In freight tariffs from year to year, all over the country. "All this apparent cutting down of rev enues Is due to a great many things," one official explained recently. "With the reduction of tariffs, nearly every line Is straining every nerve for the better ment of its property. Inimical legisla tion has had something to do with It. The lines have large amounts Invested. They know the tendency of Legislatures to fix a legal schedule of rates. Often these are not sufficient to afford 'fixed charges,' let alone giving any dividends. "Look the country over. Everywhere the lines are replacing old Iron rails with heavy steel rails. Whenever practicable, piling In depressions Is being filled in. This, once in, materially reduces expense of maintenance. Iron bridges are grad ually replacing the old wooden structures. Their first cost is more than that of wood, but once In they last longer and prove more economical In the end. Hero Is another cut In expense of maintenance. "Then, too, there Is a shortening of the lines by the removal of curves, wherever possible. This reduces wear and tear on rolling stock, and enables trains to make better time. All these things are to meet the demands of the public for Improved service. To the companies it means less money expended in making unnecessarily long hauls. "The tendency, too. is gradually to re place the ordinary sized locomotive with larger and more powerful engines. Finan cially, of course, many of the companies are better off than a few years ago. owing to general prosperity. There are a great many companies, though, who are still pressed for money. Those, even though they cannot afford at present to expend money In betterments, still arc doing so. "Now all this work of Improvement, bigger engines and better facilities Is due to the Irresistible, gradual reduction of rates, from year to year. They are made to meet changed conditions. With lower ing rates, more freight and more pas sengers must be moved yearly. Bigger engines, stralghter tracks, less coal burned, easier grades, wl'.I enable the railroad companies to, earn greater rev enues by keeping expenses down, while being compelled to work under diminished tariffs. They will make money by saving It." Vlaltlnrc Northern Tnciflc OflleialH. President C. M. Mellen. of the Northern Pacific, with a party of other officials of the company, passed a few hours In the city yesterday. The entire party com prised: President Mellen, J. W.

The officials came In President Mel.en's car, and were joined at Tacoma by Superintendent Pearson. They left for the East early yesterday afternoon.

PORTLAND, May 25. (To the Editor.) I would respectfully ask those oratorical gentlemen who displayed their enthnologl cal learning at the "Quane's Banklt." and who were evidently Inspired by tho Idea that "Blessed is the man that bloweth his own horn, lest It shall not be blown," to state to a weary public at what period In the world's history did the "Anglo-Saxon race" flourish and show itself .superior to all other races? Or whether there ever was an "Anglo-Saxon race," the term it self merely designating two German tribes. Or whether a man whose hair, the color of his eyes, and the shape of his skull proves him to be a Milesian, a Celt or a Latin, can be anything else, much less an Anglo-Saxon, whatever that Is. Why, If tho term Is objected to by emi nent scholars In literature, it should ob tain among eminent orators In the moss back form. Wh; gentlemen who are honored In the community In which they live will per sist in making "pookles av thlmselves" by tho constant use of an hlutorlcal mis nomer and by calling their neighbors out landish names. A little light on this subject would be thankfully received by not a few Ameri cans, and I'm not talking through me hat naythur. A MEMBER OF THE AMERICAN IRISH HISTORICAL SOCIETY. MATINEE TODAY.

The beneficiaries of Ralph W. Morton are found to have no claim for death benefits because he sui cided. Mr. J. E. Ritchey. supreme scribe for the Royal Tribe of Joseph, received a telegram Saturday from Mr. Harry B. Walker, of Kansas City, supreme coun sellor for the order, stating that the suit brought against the order at Jackson. Mo., by the beneficiaries of Ralph W. Morton, had been decided In favor of the order. Morton was a traveling man for the Simmons Hardware Company, of St. Louis, and was found dead in his room in that city one day last Winter. He carried a $3000 policy with the Royal Tribe of Joseph, but the order resisted payment on the ground that death was due to sui cide. Morton was left-handed, and the bullet was fired Into his left temple. The deed was also done in front of a mirror, and was evidently deliberately planned, although his beneficiaries claimed it was an accidenL Other very strong circum stantial evidence was also developed, to gether with abundnnt motive for the deed. Those best acquainted with the history of the case have had no doubt of the order winning on Its merits. Tho Royal Tribe of Joseph never failed to pay a claim and pay it promntly, whenever Just. Its officers are careful and conscientious men. however, who Investigate fully every claim before it is paid, in order to protect the order from .frauds and ir regularities. It is such attention to de tails and such painstaking accuracy that have helped materially to make this pro gressive and popular fraternal organiza tion one of the most successful in th3 country today.

He Had Previously Threatened to Shoot His Mother and Brother "What the Coroaer Learned. GOLDENDALE, Waph., May 23. The Goldendale Agriculturist has the following account of the tragedy at Trout Lake, in the northwestern part of this county, last Sunday nlgnt: "On last Monday Coroner Hart was no tified of a murder and suicide at Trout Lake, Miss Ida Fow, a school teacher, having been killed by Benjamin Wagnltz, who, after the murder of Miss Foss, com mitted suicide. Coroner Hart went out immediately to the scene of the tragedy, returning to this city late Wednesday night. "Mr. Hart says that on Sunday evening a'DOut 7:15 P. M., Mr. Wagnltz and Miss Foss. who was teaching school at Trout Lake, and boarding with the Wagnltz family, were out Tvalklng and were met by County Superintendent C. L. Colburn and wife, near the bridge crossing the Trout Lake outlet. Wagnltz and the young lady seemed to be quite happy. Mr. Colburn and wife shook hands with them and then drove on to Mr. Pearson's, near by, for the night. Wagnltz and the young lady then returned home. "The family consisted of Mrs. Wagnltz and two sons, Benjamin and August, the husband of Mrs. Wagnltz residing in Port land. The mother and son August were at the .time out a short distance from the house, attending to the milking of the cows. She and her son. shortly after the arrival home of Benjamin and Miss Foss, heard a loud scream, followed immediate ly by the report of a rifle. The mother and son rushed to where they could see tho house, and saw Benjamin, with gun In hand, leaning over the body of Miss Foss, who was lying on tho ground, apparently dead. "Wagnltz then stood up and waved the gun In the .air and called to his mother to come, saying that Miss Foss wished some water. The mother, however, and son August would not approach, being afraid of Benjamin, but went to the home of Mr. Plerson. close by. The reason of this", Coroner Hart learned, was that Ben jamin had on several occasions threatened to shoot his mother and brother, and they dared not go near him. She did, before going to Pierson's, so It was learned, say to him that If he would throw away the rifle she would go, which he declined to do. As she left him she heard him say: 'Oh, what have I done! What have 1 done!' In a few moments a second shot was heard, and Benjamin Wagnltz iell dead "by his own hand. "Miss Foss was shot in the back, the bullet going entirely through the body and through the right lung. Wagnltz placed the butt of the rifle on the ground, with tho muzzle pressed against his heart, and then touched the trigger with a small foot rule. Thus ended the life of these young people, Wagnltz being 27 years of age, and Miss Foss 25. "The home of Miss Foss was at Hood River, where her parents reside, but for two years past she had been teaching at Trout Lake during the school year. She was a most estimable young lady, highly accomplished, and one of the best school teachers of the county. That Wagnltz, who was a cripple, having lost his left arm many years ago from a gunshot wound, was Infatuated with her is "beyond question, but that she ever reciprocated his attachment is doubtful. That they were together a great deal Is true. What was the cause of the quarrel on the arri val at the house will never be known, but it Is surmised that Wagnltz had asked Miss Foss' hand In marriage and had been refused. This, in connection with the fact that a number of letters of his written to her while she had been away had that day been returned to him, had undoubtedly greatly angered him, and he had brooded over the matter until her positive Intention to have nothing further to do with him had rendered him desper ate, culminating in the tragedy. The re mains of Miss Foss were taken to Hood River for burial, the father coming up from there on Monday for the body of his daughter. The remains of Wagnltz were interred near where he had lived, only two or three persons Telng present. "The Coroner held no inquest, as In his judgment and that of many of the people In that section, it was deemed unneces sary, tho facts of tho case being plain and apparent to all." (Benjamin Wagnltz was well-known to a number of Portland people. He was a mountain guide, and made the ascent of Mount Adams with the Mazamas In 1S33.) ASCENSION DAY CELEBRATED Six German Denominations in an Outdoor Meeting1. Ascension day was celebrated by the German-speaking pastors and people of Portland and vicinity at the City Park Thursday. The-country teams, loaded wllh people, began to arrive at 10 A. M., and were augmented by those In tho city, till an audience had gathered of some 4C0 persons. An improvises choir furnished the music, and alternated with the speak ing. Six denominations of German-speaking people were represented at this gathering, and addresses were made, alternately, by Rev. Mr. Haffner. of the Roformed church: by Rev. Messrs. Staub and Bau mann. of the Congregational church; by Rev. Mr. Kratt, of the Baptist Church; by Rev. Mr. Graff, of the rr.sbyterlan chu ch; by Rev. Messrs. Jans, Hartung and Prlcs ing, of the Methodist fcpuscopal, and Rev. Mr. Blttncr, of the Evangelical. All ad dresses were of a deep religious nature, and were based on somo appropriate pass age of Scripture. The platform exercises were suspended during the hour of noon. A fine lunch was spread and participated In by all, after which the speaking and singing were re sumed. It was Indeed an enjoyable day, and augurs well for the growing fraternal spirit of the churches. At the conclusion of the meeting a col lection was raised for the benefit of the Baby Home, of this city, which resulted in 524 C5. TWO BITS A MEAL. Election Judges and Clcrk Will Be Allowed "o More. On several occasions heretofore there has been trouble In regard to bills sent In for supplying meals to the judges and clerks of election, a charge of 50 to 73 cents having been made for meals, and. on some occasions, meals for "lookouts" have been charged to the county. These bills have Invariably been cut down to 25 cents per meal by the County Com mles'oners. and In order to avoid trouble or dispute in the future, the Board of County Commissioners has sent circulars to Judges and clerks for the approaching election, notifying them that only 25 cents will be allowed for the meals supplied them while on duty. This applies to polling places within the" city limits, as in the country, precincts the Judges and clerks bring their lunches in their pockets or are Invited to dinner by their neighbors. The judges and clerks are paid 53 for the day up to 6 P. M., and for all overtime they are em ployed they are allowed at the rate of eight hours for a day's work. The best of them count an average of 14 ballots per hour. Every year the Commissioners are over run with applications for contracts to fur nish meals for the judges and clerks at 23 cents per meal, but they do not In terfere, and allow these officials to get their meals whero they please, but they object to paying any more than 23 ccntn per meal. Now that It is understood how much the county expects to pay for their meals, the election officers who have champagne appetites can Indulge them selves at their own expense if they so desire. IN THE HOP FIELDS. Vines Have a Splendid Start, and AH Loots Well. A hop dealer, who has just returned from a tr.'p through the hopyards of Polk and Marlon Counties, says tho pros pects are favorable for a good crop. On high ground the hops came up quite spotted, that Is, in some hills the vines were a foot high before the vines in other hills were above the ground, but this will make no difference with the crop, as the late vines will eaten up with the early ones. On bottom lands the vines have made a fine growth of late, during warm days growing a foot or more, so that they could almost be seen to grow. No hop lice have appeared as yet, and plum and prune trees on which the eggs for tho new crop of flics are deposited to await the time for hatching, when the hop vinco are big enough to be damaged, are, if not entirely free from lice, more nearly so than for years. Maples In the vicinity of hopyards are also free from Insect pests, so some Imagine there will be no hop lice this year, but they will probably be mistaken. Nearly all the hopgrowers are preparing to spray their vines as soon as the louse appears, and many will spray this season who have not sprayed before. In all the yards the hop vines are up to the wires and in some they have run out and passea each other between the polcn and are be ginning to put out arms. The prospects are favorable for a good crop. 6 START TONIGHT. Xorae City and Geo. W. Elder Will Clear for Cape Nome. So rapidly have matters progressed, that Agent Baumgartner, of the Cali fornia & Oregon Coast Steamship Com pany, said yesterday that all the freight for Cape Nome would probably be stowed by noon, today. The Nome City and Geo. W. Elder will leave this port together at 7 o'clock this evening. The passenger list exceeds tho number estimated earlier In the week, and reaches a total of S50 people.
