Zigler had sense enough to pass off several forged checks on Portland business men Satur day afternoon. He somehow obtained some blank checks of the First National bank, and "by forging the name of 'J. Cor nelius was able to keep himself in spend ing money besides purchasing plenty of wearing apparel. He thus mulcted I Robinson, a clothing dealer, out of $13, and Miller & Son of $5. Zigler Is a strong young man, about 20 years of age, and ap pears rational enough while offering his worthless checks In payment for goods and receiving the balance in cash. By operating on Saturday afternoon he had 36 hours ahead of him before the forgery could be found out, as Portland banks close at noon on Saturday. His victims have no desire to prosecute him, how ever, as the authorities have decided that the fellow Is "insane." Saw the Eclipbb. Colonel lu L. Haw- IkinB is one of Portland's citizens who arose early enough yesterday morning to take in the partial eclipse of the sun. Al though clouds obscured the sky somewhat. the colonel says he obtained a very good series of views, the first "being at 5:22 A. M., when the moon had encroached on the southeast quarter of the sun about half way toward the center of the larger orb. There wasn't so very much difference In the apparent size of the planets, he thinks. From a second-story window of the colonels residence on Fourth and Lincoln streets, where a fine Eastern ex posure reveals the whole East Side, and Ithe mountains beyond. Colonel Hawkins spent nearly an hour In watching the itransit of Luna, and wishing he could get lis hands on It jo add to his collection In the free museum. The eclipse, he says, lectured promptly on schedule time, as published in Sunday's Oregonlan. Excavatinq for New BuiUHNO. Large crowds gathered all day yesterday about the southeast corner of Third and "Wash ington streets, where a large number of len and teams were busy excavating the juarter block for the foundation of the lew four-story brick to "bo erected by the Falling estate. Heavy teams were angaged in plowing up the rich alluvial ill that for centuries Tefore American occupation of Oregon had grown the tall firs, since cut down to make way for a rlty. The 6oil being dug up Is hauled off to the Terminal grounds, where it fills in depressions about the coach yards. A Lhick bank of concrete, which was the foundation for the heavy vaults of the O. & N., gave the workmen a good deal Df trouble, as It had to be broken apart Kvlth the aid of sledgest The concrete chunks were carted off like the rest of She material, to help All in. Eclipse Seek Here. A number of peo ple arose yesterday with the sun to see the partial eclipse of that luminary. It yas scheduled to rise eclipsed at 4:18, but whether it did nobody In Portland knows, or the northern and eastern skies were bhscured by a mass of blue clouds. After o clock there were several short Inter nals when the 6un peeped out from be hind the clouds, and by the aid of a Iznoked glass It could be seen that a frac tion of it was obscured by some large ady. For about five minutes at 6 o'clock jhe clouds so encircled the sun that the clippe could be clearly seen without the lelp of any glass. This is a phenomenon leldom observed. The moon left Its place etween the earth and the euh at 6:25. Braxdes Goes to Nome. Carl Brandes, If the criminal department of the State rlrcult Court, for the past two years. eslgned several days ago, and has Joined 10 Tsome colony.

He says he wrote to Captain Brannan, Portland, and his letter cme back marked "not called for." Captain Brannan left Portland Ave or six years ago, and has since resided continuously at Long Beach, Wash., hold ing down this edge of the continent, while Summer visitors are not there. During that time there has been a complete change of officials at the postofflce, and men have come In who "know not Jos eph," nor Austin Blagbon, and as Cap tain Brannan never called for his letters. It was, of course, sent "back. Now, 'Cap tain Brannan will please take a day off from chasing the swift-footed razor clam, and the equally agile crab, and write to his anxious friend, giving his present postoffice address, and all will be well. Bio Fish got Away. Dan Howe had a rather exciting experience with a salmon at Willamette Falls a few days ago. He had hooked a large salmon, supposed to be about a 40-pounder, and after playing It a long time succeeded in getting It within reach. A friend deutous of assist ing him in landing It took the gaff and getting down to the edge of the swift current, essayed to hook it into the tired fish. No sooner had the salmon felt tho point than he made a vicious plunge, tearing the gaff out of the hands of the holder and nearly dragging him Into the river, and then struck out for the sea, taking a mile or so of Howe's line along, and had not the line parted he vrould have taken- along the rod and probably Mr. Howe also. The race is not always to the swift nor the battle to the strong. Civil Service Examinations.

Dunne and Ryley's Company, in Hoyt's "Rag Baby," drew a crowded house at the Marquam Grand last night. The old time favorite farce-comedy was rejuve nated and dressed up In modern toggery and trimmings, which trimmings consist ed of a rapid string of specialties, put on by an all-star troupe. Mathews and Bul ger wafted back breezes from the "sad sea. waves," making another record for a thoroughly good funmaking team. Bulger as Old Sport made the most of the part, the standard for which was set so high by Charley Reed a few years ago. Math ews and Bulger, In their singing specialty In the last act, sang a rattling good par ody on "The Blue and the Gray." Mary Marble appeared as Venus. Her songs, assisted by the policeman (Walter Jones) and the chorus of girls, were winners. The second act was brimful of specialty work, the most pleasing of which was Maude Courtney's medley of old-time songs, her singing of "My Maryland" and "Dixie" being especially well received. Her voice has a peculiarly sweet, soft quality, suited admirably to her songs. Walter Jones received several recalls on account of his Irresistibly funny Irish songs. Wiseman's Serenaders, a male quartet, sang good music in a cultured manner, the audience being loth to see them leave the stage. In the last act the pony ballet was the feature. Eight sprightly dancers added a novel musical act to an otherwise pretty dance. The musical choruses and the ensembla dancing- was well taken care of by a bevy of pretty girls. The remainder of the large cast Is In capable hands, the whole show possessing plenty of ginger. The "Rag Baby" will be the attraction tonight. TELLS A TALL STORY. Romance of a. Peddler of White Heron Skins. A man tanned to a rich saddle color, and professing to be a hunter, was around town yesterday selling skins of the white heron or aigret. He told a romantic story about some 16 of thwi birds having been blown Into this country from somewhere, and about himself having followed them up for a year or more, and shooting-13 ol the 16 at Blackhole, a swamp In Idaho, which may be considered a fairy tale. Tbis, however, does not affect the skins, which are very beautiful. Thev nave an "aigrette." or plume, of long open feath ers, such as are esteemed as urname'its for hats and bonnets, on their back, and the vendor told how these plumes were elevated when the herons danced. S.--eral of the skins were sold to persons who have collections of birds, for 510 each. The skins probably came from Japnn or Mexico, In both of which countries such whlto herons are common, and they are much used in art decorations on porcola'n and in embroidering screens, etc Prob ably 510 is a. pretty round price for the skins, and the peodler. who is probably a sailor, or a native of tho tropics Is doing very well In his little business on the side, which Is all right, and his fairy tale about hunting the birds in Idaho Is just calcu lated to make buyers think that the skins are very scarce. The Japans&e axe ex perts In putting up bird skins of roany klnds for export, and many of them come to this country. "GREAT NORTHERN FLYER" "The Most Popular Train Across America."
