Timber Cruiser Scorches a
. Twenty Hollar Bill
PIPE IGNITES HIS CURRENCY
Thoi. Bigby Hai Ptcaliar Experltscc
Wbile Enroute U Dtpat
Tbos. Bigby, a timber cruiser in
the employ of some of the big tim
ber land purchasers, was in town
yesterday. There ie nothing par
ticularly significant about Mr.
Bigby'i visit to this city, as Hills
boro is being visited by timber
barons, timber cruisers, and timber
sellers, these days, io myriads.
But Mr. Bigby learned a lesion
while here that will last him a
while. He came io from the Ne
halem via Glenwood and Forest
Grove, and then made trip to the
courthouse. From there he start
ed to the train to go to Portland.
While en route to the depot he
lighted his pipe; when he reached
the Milne place he knocked the
ashes out of his pipe, which was a
short one, and put the dudeen in
his vest pocket. When he reached
the depot he discovered that he
was on fire. There was a pretty
warm spot, and as he bad papers
in the pocket, the spark got in
some deadly work. Bigby went
into the receptacle and pulled out
the wad. A check on a Portland
bank waB badly burned, but was
still negotiable. Not bo, however,
with a twenty dollar treasury note,
which was all charred and unrecog'
mzable, save one corner, on which
was the big "AX, reminding Big
by of the many cold birds and hot
ties that his short smoke cost him.
"By Gee!" quoth Bigby. "I've
smoked away many a twenty in
my 45 years of life, but that was a
little the fastest smoking I ever
did. Besides, it knocks the profit
out of my trip, and there is no way
I cao make it back io my expense
account, for that is now loaded as
much as it will carry."

The county exhibiu at the Ore
gon State Fair in Salem are always
interesting, and big advertising
feature for the sections represented.
This year six counties will exhibit,
as follows: Marion, Benton, Lane,
Linn, Clatsop and Multnomah. The
last two have never been represent
ed before. The county courts Mult
nomah and Clatsop counties have
each appropriated 11000 to provide
for an adequate display. Marion
county will exhibit, but she will
not compete for the prize. The
outside counties say that Marion
has an advantage to being nearer
the fair. Accordingly she will
withdraw and the other contestants
will all have an equal chance
Washington County should have
an exhibit but it will not.

A fellow drove through town at
noon today, having a team that
was a curiotity. The horses were
not much higher than the average
Shetland pony, and their legs, nat
urally, were very short. Io length,
however, their bodies were fully as
long as tie average horse, and the
span looked like a pair of German
dachshund!. Their peculiar for
mation of bodies, however, did not
seem to interfere with their travel
ing abilities, as they could strike a
pretty pace. j. w. Bailey was
particularly taken with the team
and tried to buy them to use as a
vacation team, but the owner re
fused to sell.
