This he refused to do, and an officer was accordingly sent to arrest him. On arriving at the city jail, he coolly inquired of the captain the amount of his ball. On the response that it was $20, he put his hand In his pocket, and, pulling out a handful of gold, handed over the required amount. His case will come up tomorrow. Demand tor Laborers. A few days of dry weather have had the effect of waking up Industries supposed to be somewhat dormant, and so the call for loggers and farm laborers has been considerably stim ulated. Idle men, however, are not over numerous in Portland, and more or less difficulty is encountered, by employment agents in filling orders. The demand for laborers on railroad work has not ceased at all this season, and men are belns sent to Moro and to Eugene in squads of 5 to 20, as soon as they can be mustered. There ia no town demand for laboring men at present. The Printers Combine Again. Fort land business men are inclined to complain of such methods of doing business. Alvin S.

The agricul tural college student seems to have heed ed sober second thought This paragraph appears in the Corvallls Union-Gazette: "The report that Sam Thurston had gone to Canada, with the intention of enlisting In the English army to fight the Boers, seems to be without foundation. His brother Gyp, who was in Corvallls Sun day, states that Sam is in Portland, and will likely return shortly to resume his studies at the O. A. C." Its Future Home. The Oregon Tele phone & Telegraph Company Is laying the wires for a new home of its own in Portland.

The Celebrated Carbollneum Ave jinrius Counterfeited In This CJty. The remarks of -travelers In praise of carbollneum avenarlus as a wood-preserving paint and Its special value in a damp climate like that of Oregon, published in The Oregonlan during the past few months, have aroused widespread Interest and a corresponding demand for that article in Portland. Among other purposes to which it Is specially adapted and their name Is legion Is that of preserving ship timbers. This fact Is so fully recognized in Europe and the Atlantic coast American ship-yards that carbollneum avenarlus is deemed in- I dispensable by many of the world's largest ship-builders. "Valuable discoveries travel fast, and Portland ship-wrights are now following the example of their Eastern associates In using this remarkable preser- j atlve to lengthen the life of their prod- ucts. Water has no effect upon ship tlm- J bers hardened by applications of carbo- ' llneum avenarlus. and seams do not open j between them from decay or shrinkage. As a result of this demand, paint-houses j have been besieged with orders for the preservative. Carbollneum avenarlus, how ever, Is an article of German manufacture, ' and the genuine preparation can only be f had from duly appointed American agents. Notwlthstading this, a Portland wholesale dealer recently sold a prominent ship builder a barrel of alleged carbollneum avenarlus, guaranteeing it to be genuine, which was not made In Germany, but was Instead a spurious imitation, manu factured in Portland. Imitation is said to be the slncerest flattery, but the ship builder, recogniz'ng the worthlessness of his purchase, and not appreciating the compliment paid the real thing at his ex pense, promptly rejected the home-made article In favor of the imported product. Warned by this instance, purchasers of the preservative will act -wisely in secur ing original, unbroken packages, and In assuring themselves that the copyrighted name. "Carbollneum Avenarlus," and the proper foreign trade-marks and import marks are stamped on every barrel. s- NEARING THE END.
