BAiitON Pack Begins to Mote. The
first carload of this Spring's pack of Co
lumbia Eiver salmon was shipped yester
day by Pillar Rock Cannery, over the O.
R. & N. Railroad. It Is going to New
Orleans, where Columbia River salmon la
in favor, and being the new pack and of
prime quality, will doubtless bring a good
price. The run of salmon is "picking up,"
as 1S00 pounds of fine flsh were taken by
the eelne at Oliver's Sands, Wednesday,
-which Is the largest catch made there on
any day so far this season. Over a ton
and a half of shad was caught by this
seine the same day. These flsh were
shipped here, arriving yesterday morn
ing, with quite a lot more shad from oth
er places. Dealers send them to all parts
of the state, as these flsh are growing
rapidly in favor. The catch of salmon
on the Lower Columbia this season has
been much larger than is generally sup
posed, some of the cannerymen, with a
view to Influencing the market, giving
out misleading information in regard to
the take. The fact is that many flshpr
men at Astoria have been selling their
big flsh to the cold-storage men on the
sly, receiving a cent per pound or so
more for them than the canners are pay
ing, and leaving the cannerymen, to
whom they are Indebted, to take the
small flsh and leaving those who do not
devote their attention to the Ashing busi
ness In ignorance of the amount or flsh
that has been taken. The big run ot
salmon confidently expected may be
looked for any time now, and without
doubt there will be a large pack this
year.
Vaccinated Against Her Will. Speak
ing of the number of persons afflicted
with smallpox who come into Portland
from all parts of this section to be taken
care of at the expense of the city, a, citi
zen who has just returned from a busi
ness trip to British Columbia remarks
that they manage such matters better
across the line. When the train on which
he was traveling reached Northport, the
last station on this side of the line, an
inspector came on board to examine the
passengers and ascertain whether they
bad been vaccinated or not, before the
train could cross into British territory.
The men generally bared their arms for
his inspection, and if they had not been
vaccinated he vaccinated them then and
there. A woman passenger, presuming on
ber sex, refused to bare her arm, where
upon the Inspector deftly cut a slit in
the sleeve of her dress and obtained a
view of her arm. He found that she had
not been vaccinated, and before one could
say "Jack Robinson," he, had scratched
ber skin with his lancet and dabbed on
some vaccine matter, and gave the con
ductor the signal to go ahead. Before the
woman could recover her breath and ex
press her opinion of the outrage to which
she had been subjected, she was In a for
eign land, where her complaints fell on
ears Indifferent to them.
Opium Sale Does Not Stick. The sale
of 1200 flve-tael cases of opium, made by
the United States Marshal on Mas' 5, to
Wong Hock, a very fly Chinaman, who
stated that he was from New York, has
turned out a fiasco. The opium could not
be delivered the day of the sale, but
Wong Hock, who bid f4 70 per can for
the stuff, or $5640 in all, was to pay the
money at 1 P. M. the next day and re
ceive the opium. He failed to do so, and
has ever since failed and neglected to do
so, and has finally repudiated the transac
tion entirely. He says that a pool of
four was formed to make the purchase,
and that his associates refused to con
summate the bargain, on the ground that
be had bid too much, and he further al
leges that the opium is not what it was
represented to be, but is from a new
factory. As Wong Hock made no deposit
or gave any security to bind the bargain,
the sale is off, and the Marshall will
have to readvertlse the opium and sell It
again. Ho says that he will take care
to see that he is not fooled again.

Great Seed-Raiser Here. Colonel 13.
H. Morrison, well known here In the time
of H. Vlllard et aLr but who now culti
vates a large farm at 'Fairfield, Wash.,
where he cultivates wheat and sugar
beets, with garden seeds as a side issue,
is spending a few days in the city, renew
ing his acquaintance with old-time
frlend3. One of his friends, who is a re
liable man In some matters, was telling
a party of his friends yesterday about
Colonel Morrison's feats In raising flower
and garden seeds. He said that last year
Colonel Morrison had six acres In sweet
peas, and shipped carloads of the peas.
This year he had agreed to furnish 40,000
carloads of radish seed to an Eastern
dealer. This statement was taken with a
shovelful of salt, but as on this Coast
radishes grow as big as parsnips under
favorable circumstances, and send up
flower stock as high and .broad-spreading
as blackberry bushes and produce
eeed vessels as long and large as cu
cumbers, there might be a possibility that
the statement was trtie. On tracing the
matter down, however, it was found that
Colonel Morrison had a contract to sup
ply a dealer with 40,000 pounds of radish
seed, and expected to raise 80.000 pounds.
The difference between a pound of seed
and a carload is not so great as it might
have been, but the discrepancy is suffi
cient to cut quite a figure in the total
amount of seed.
Masses of Bloom on CE. Ladd's
GP.OUNDS. Parties who have been out
driving of late on the White House road
say that the extensive grounds about the
residence of Charles E. Ladd at Cedar
hurst are a magnificent spectacle, owing
to the masses of bloom on various flower
ing trees and shrubs. Mr. and Mrs. Ladd
aro enthusiasts on the culture of flowers
and flowering trees and shrubs, and mass
so many of them as to produce striking
effects. The great attraction of late has
been a long row of crabapple trees so
loaded with blossoms that their boughs
swept the ground, presenting a charming
appearance, and loading the air with
fragrance.. Now that these trees are shed
ding their blossoms, a large collection of
lllAc "bushes" are putting forth flowers
of different colors, there being others
than the usual white and "lilac" ones,
and such a number of them as to aston
ish the natives. These will be succeeded
by displays of other flowers, the shrub
bery being so selected and arranged as
to keep up a constant succession of flow
ers, and when the roses bloom the whole
place will be in a blaze of glory.
To Survet Mlnino Claims. Surveyor
General Meldrum has Issued orders within
the past few weeks for the survey of
about 60 mining claims In the Baker City,
Blue River and Bohemia Mining Districts.
Work will be begun on these surveys just
as soon as the snow has gone off suffi
ciently to allow of the deputy surveyors
taking the field. Such an amount of work
in surveying mining claims Is unprece
dented in the history of the state and
shows the Increased interest being taken
in mining matters. Deputy Surveyor
Alonzo Garner is now in the fleld sur
veying Township 3 S., R. 6 E., in the
Sandy section, on which there is some
valuable timber land in which Portland
people are interested. The recent award
of contracts to Homer D. Angel, of The
Dalles, for surveying T. 27 and 28, R.1
W., and T. 38 S., R. 21 E.; and to Charles
L. Campbell, of The Dalles, for survey
ing T. 5 N., R. 45 B.; T. 25 S., R. 9 W..
and T. 32 S., R. 2 W., have been recently
approved by the Commissioner of the
General Land Office. These deputies will
commence work on these contracts next
month.

Constable Comes for Leslie. Consta
ble Charles H. Downing, of Sulsun, CaL,
arrived at the police station last night
with a requisition from the Governor of
California calling for George E. Leslie,
alias George E. Llttel, and posing as a
New York millionaire, charged with forg
er. Leslie will probably depart with the
Constable today for Sulsun, for trial. The
charge is made by W. H. Edwards, man
ager of a ranch owned by R. D. Bobbins,
and Edwards states that Leslie gave him
a forged check for $50 In exchange for
money advanced amounting to that sum.
Leslie secured Edwards' confidence by ar
ranging to buy Robbins 900-acre orchard
for $200,000, and the deal was to have
been closed by May 1, but after receiving
the $50 from Edwards, Leslie disappeared
until he was located and arrested In this
city.
Allen A. Wright Wants His Doo
Back. Allen A. Wright, of the Portland
Hotel, mourns the loss of his Only dog, a
very valuable fox terrier. Mr. Wright Is
preparing to take up his residence in -a
house at Sixth and Clay streets, and on a
visit to the premises on Wednesday last
he was accompanied by his dog. While
he was looking the place over the dog dis
appeared as suddenly and mysteriously
as if the earth had opened and swallowed
him up. He says any one having pos
session of the dog should know where to
find his owner, as on the dog's collar was
engraved: "Teddy. -Portland Hotel." Mr.
Wright would like to recover his pet, and
if necessary is willing to pay the "full
value" of the animal to get him back. In
the meantime, he is open to negotiations
for the purchase ot a substitute.
Almost Caught a Bear. F. O. Down
ing, who was injured by a vfali from a
horse some time ago, has just returned
from a visit to Yreka, CaL, where he
went 'for the benefit of his health, and
to enjoy the sport of trout Ashing. He
did not catch any trout, but came near
catching a bear. The animal was fish
ing down a stream as Mr. Downing was
fishing up it, and only for the fact that"
be could run faster than the bear for a
short distance, he would have caught the
animal sure. During his stay in Yreka
ho discovered that the name on a sign
there, 'Yreka Bakery," read the same
backward as forward, and this made him
homesick, hence his sudden return.
Young Hoober's Bad Drafts. Aaron'
Hoober will have a hearing this afternoon
before Municipal Judge Cameron, charged
with obtaining money under false pre
tenses, on the complaint of C. L. Schoen
feldt, an East Side grocer. Hoober and
Schoenfeldt originally hailed from Kan
sas, and when Hoober recently came out
to this Coast he went to live at a Washington-street
hotel, and persuaded his
friend Schoenfeldt to cash drafts for $350
on Mr. Hoober, Sr., in Kansas. Trouble
began, however, when the drafts wero
handed back, dishonored. It Is thought
that relatives will como to young Hoob
er's assistance, and that the case will
ultimately be dropped.
Telephone Boxes Robbed. Complaints
have reached the police that within the

cated in the hallways of apartment and

Strucc a. Conductor. 'Yes, I slapped
him. If that's assault and battery. I
plead guilty," said J. B. Burns, yesterday,
in the Municipal Court, pointing to J. A.
Laubner, a Mount Scott trolley car con
ductor. "It was, this way," began Laub
ner. "I had about 35 passengers on my
car, and I asked a boy who was standing
oil the steps to get off or come inside.
Burns interfered" and told me that I would
not have my Job a week longer. He
struck me on the head." Burns insisted
that there had been previous trouble be
tween Laubner and himself, and that
Laubner had so provoked him that ho
slapped him In anger. "And you went to
the front and reported me, didn't you?"
asked Laubner. "I did and you won't
hold your Job long," retorted Burns.
"That remains to be seen," was Laub
ner's answer. The case was continued, in
the absence of witnesses.

vice-president, presented, on behalf of tho
association, a huge leather wallet filled
with greenbacks. Mr. Tozier responded
gracefully to the compliment, Mr. Tozier

gard and friendship of the members.

MUST CHANGE RAILS.
Those .Prescribed hy Council for
Fourth Street Xot to Be Had.
The City Council some time ago passed
an ordinance providing for relaying the
track of the Southern Pacific Company
and stipulating the kind of rail to be
used. The engineer of maintenance of
the Southern Pacific Company lately in
formed R. Koehler, manager of the com
pany's lines In Oregon, that careful In
quiry had been made at all the steel
mills In tho country, and It was found
that none of them roll s. "full-groove"
rail with the groovo large enough to ac
commodate tho flanges of cars and en
gines used on steam roads. This kind of
rail Is used exclusively for street-car
traffic, the wheels of which have smaller
fianges than those used on steam roads,
from which It appeared plain that the
company could not comply with the re
quirements of the ordinance defining the
rails to be used on Fourth street A blue
print accompanied the communication,
showing the kind of rail extensively used
In San Francisco where steam railroad
tracks are lild on paved streets, withen
tire satisfaction to all Concerned. It Is a
7-inch girder rail of SO pounds per yard,
and forming a groove with a light rail
laid on brackets.

maintenance that this rail could be pro
cured, but just how soon could not be
said.
In view of these explanations, Mr. Koeh
ler asked for a modification of the ordi
nance so as to permit the Southern Pa
cific Company to substitute for the rail
therein described the rail shown In the
blueprint, and submitted a draft of the
proposed modifying ordinance, which
proved satisfactory to the committee on
streets and .was to have been taken up
at the Council meeting Wednesday. The
committee, however, received a request
that It be laid over, as Manager Koehler
had seen a notice In some railway jour
nal to the effect that a certain rolling
mill wa3 making full-groove rails suit
able for steam roads, and he wanted
time to Investigate the matter and find
out If It might not be possible to secure
the kind of rails for Fourth street which
the Council had stipulated for.
Yesterday ho received an answer to
his dispatch Informing him that the state
ment seen In the railway journal was In
correct and that such rails as the Coun
cil had stipulated for were not to be had
In the country. The ordinance modifying
the original ordinance, so as to allow of
a rail with a groove formed by a light
rail on brackets being used, will probably
be passed at the next meeting of 'the
Common Council.
ROYAL FLUSH MAN JAILED
Game to
Beat Cigar Machines
Frustrated.
la
Light was expected to bo shed on the
plan to strike a "royal flush" on cigar
slot machines, when the case of John
Bishop was called in the Municipal Court
yesterday. Tho charge against Bishop
was "suspicion,"' but la the absence of
witnesses the case was continued, no wit
nesses being examined. From informa
tion supplied by the police, It appears
that Bishop and another man whose name
is not known walked into John "Wey
hoffor's cigar store, 201 East Morrison
street, "Wednesday night, and conspired
to play the slot machine. The unknown
man started to engage "Weyhoffer in
conversation, whllB Bishop began to play
tho cigar machine, by using a long wire
to tickle the machinery and so block the
mechanism that cards representing the
ace, king, queen. Jack and ten of one
suit would -fall. But Weyhoffer detected
the wire In Bishop's right hand, and he
Instantly realized that an attempt was
about to be made to beat the slot ma
chine. "Young fellow, that wire business don't
go," he said, sharply, and, fearing de
tention. Bishop and his friend ran out
the door. Policeman Connor was passing
at the time, and seeing the two men split
into two different directions, he pursued
Bishop. Tne latter, however, would not
stop until two shots had been fired from
Connor's revolver.
Only a short time ago, three men beat
cigar machines In several of the princi
pal cigar stores In tho city by using a
wire to assist them In the operations, and
walked off with several hundreds of ci
gars before the victims were aware of the
trick practiced upon them. The police
say they will have difficulty in convict
ing any one caught beating the cigar
machines, as the latter are gambling de
vices. It Is Intimated that the slelght-of-hand
man using the wire may be fined
or sent to jail for vagrancy.
