A young hoodlum by the name of Gallagher was arrested last evening for creating a disturbance around the Sal vation Army building. There are about a half doten young ruffians that night ly make themselves obnoxious to both the people In the building and to pass ers by, and a similar treatment of the rest of the gang might prove beneficial. Only one other arrest was reported, that of John Doe, common drunk. "The Oregon Railroad & Navigation Company reports a shortage In cars, owing to the large demand for equip ment for grain shipments." sava tha I RtvtlrnnA Rnn1rAanian.1avlan 1V1.M every effort w ill be made to supply car for grain shipments as needed, ship ments of general merchandise, live atock. etc., win be given preference, as this business does not admit of delay. To relieve the anticipated stringency It will be necessary on grain shipments to load cars to their full capacity on and after October 1. "Our genuine reduction sale Is keep Ing us so busy," said Herman Wise yesterday, "that I was obliged to ask my clerks to straighten up stock from the time the store closed until after 10 o'clock. Genuine reductions are found to appeal to thrifty, sensible people. The average man or woman owes nothing to any store and will patronize the merchant who give them the most and best for their money." A reduction of from $2 to $4.50 on a man's suit, overcoat or mackintosh; $75c to $1.50 off on boy'a suit; 50o to $1 off the price of a hat or a ault of underwear, and so on. Is the simple but powerful reason why crowds flock to Mr. Wise' store. The Telegram says: Tho British bark Australia cleared from this port this afternoon, with 130,548 bushels of wheat, valued at $76,000. . The vessel was dispatched by Kerr, Gl fiord ft Co., and Is bound tor Queenstown or Fal mouth for orders. The Australia Is the fourth sailing vessel to clear foreign from this port since first of the month. The fleet la moving rapidly now, and the September export will show up In good ahapf., Nearly I half th month slipped by and not ,a single vessel cleared with wheat. Within th past week four havt cleared, and the pros pects are bright for nearly aa many mor In th coming ten day. The Itlversdule has been detained on ac count of hr cargo not twlng on th dock, but she will be the next to finish, fih will probably clar tomorrow. Th Ellsa and the Deccan will also get away this month. Jt Is hardly prob able that any other craft In the har bor can load and dear before Octo ber 1. Th Tenthealla would have fig ured In thla month' fleet had she not been compelled to tie up for repair. A recent lue of the Ban Francisco Call contained an account of a terrible battle between a whale on th one tide a defendant, and a sword-fish and a thrasher on the other side aa proa eutor. The battle occurred Sunday morning eff Point Bonlta. and wa wit neaaed by many besides those mention ed In th Call. Among those who were ev-witnes-( of the scene I O. L, lUthbone, secretary of Macondray Co., who wa on the yacht Tramontana at the time, and nearer to the battle than those on tho Lurllne. Hi testl mony alone !s ufflclnt. and doubtleaa a large number of rtsponslble men can b named In addition, to prove the won derful tory of the great fight The rost-Intelllgencer of September l'ith says: The Bi-attle-Taeoma Rail way Comimny yesterday changed hands bv passing Into the control of a syn dicate composed of Jacob Furth. of Se attle. George B. Rlanchard. of Tacoma, and eastern associate. Mr. Furth and opsoclatts acquired the entire stock of the company. A new board of trus tees and new officers were elected, The Sealtle-Taoma Railway Company wm oiganlred In the spring of 18M. It Is undcrtsood that the sale is on terms entirely satisfactory to the old stock, holders, and that they are also well pleased with the very favorable pros pect which the Interorban project now has, The Columbia River and Oregon Tlm- berman says of the recent purchase of timber Intereits In California: The ronmimmatlon of the sale of the Vance redwood Interests at Eureka, Callfor nla. to A. R. Hammnd of Portland, Oregon, Includes the finest body of clear timber In the redwood belt of Callfor nla, a new and modern mill with i constant demand for Its product, parti cularly from Australia, and the Eure ka & Klamath River rallrcad a com puny organized to build Its road from Eureka to the Klamath river, a dis tance of 70 miles. What effect the sale of the property will have on the rall- rotd con upatdw ratnndwazztnzhx uuu road controversy, now pending In the courts between tho Klamath company and the Cal. & N. Co.. Is not known at present Captain- M. O. Morgan, the diver, of Morgan ft Co.. submarine divers, wreckers and contractors, of Portland, is at work at Oregjn City, putting in extensive cribbing for the Columbia River Poper Company of that place, This work Is being done In preparation for emergencies that arise when the autumn rains cause the river to defy Its banks In Its mad rush from the mountains of the Interior to the warm currents of the ocean. During the high water of the past few years the Co lumbia River Paper Company has suf fered considerable loss n the escape of Its logs, which have hitherto been Im perfectly protect!. The crib which Captain Morgan and hi force of assist ants are now constructing Is designed to overcome this danger by safely hold ing the logs at the head of the canal nt any stage of the water. The Paper Company anticipates an active winter. and Is preparing to handle an unusual quantity of raw' material. W. A. Wilcox, agent for the United States fsh commission, is In Portland and Is paying a visit to the Ashing grounds In this vicinity and obtaining needed statistics. His work is that of collecting facts and figures as to the capital Invested and the products. While he has no authority for compelllnfl fish ermen to give him figures, he states he Is Invariably received with courtesy. A trip Is made to the Pacific coast every four years, and four years ago, eight years ago and twelve years ago Mr. Wilcox came to Washington, Ore gon and California from Washington, D. C. He says that on each visit there has been a large Increase In the fishing Industry, and wonderfully so during the lost four years, mor especially In Ore gon and California. Hla reports are an Bent on to Washington, D. C but Mr. Wilcox will continue on his tour of Invest Nation until January. The next three weeks will be devoted to looking Into the industry In the coast rivers, and Mr. Wilcox promises some Interesting figures relative to the grow th of the fishing and the output. Some writers are contending that, as a result of this year's -un of salmon on the coast, the supply Is falling short, and that the methods pursued on the coast to catch the fish have resulted n rapidly depleting the supply. To some extent this Is true, but most of the criticisms being made are based upon a misunderstanding of the facts. The run this year Is comparatively smaller than It should be and whjn compared with last year' enormous run tho catch and pock show a remark able decrease. Fishermen and cannery men agree that unl3es artificial methods are adopted to keep up the supply the operations of fishermen will In time de plete the supply on the , coast, The state of Oregon haa taken practically no steps toward remedying this condi tion when compared with the splendid work being done In that direction by her sister state, Washington. Oregon ha but two hateh.Mi In actual opera tion on the Columbia, while Washing ton I already orienting seven and an eighth Is In prociw of construction and will bi ready to operate within thirty days, Th total output of th hatch eries throughout the state of Washing ton Is 103,000,000 fr annually, while that of Oregon Is scarce a tenth of that amount. The Telegram say a dispatch from Rocehurg, dated Sept. 20th, say: A ennation wa cauaed here laat night by the discovery that Bert Wco, a prla onei' st the county Jail, had escaped. Rice wa being held on the charge of stealing a hora from William Chad wink, 'of Riddle, a few weeks ago. The discovery wa made yeaterady evening that Blc bad gone, and search was Immtdlittely Instituted. Sheriff Parrott hurried to his barn to get his horse, and found that It had ben taken, also his aaddle. The supposition Is that Bice. ir.:k!ng hi escape from the Jail unnoticed, hastened to the sheriffs barn, saddled his horse and rode out of town without being recognized. The sheriff and several deputies are out In various directions, but as yet have not reported succeas. All points toward which the escaped prisoner might make hla way have been notified. Later Rice was captured this morning at Myrtle creek by Sheriff Parrott. He had turned the horse ooae In the streeta and Jumped on the blind baggage of the southbound overland. He stated that he was In hiding when the deputy went In to lock the prisoners in the cell last night, and slipped past him and got away unseen. The following are some of the quali fication x'uai constitute residence un der the homestead laws according to the views of the department of the Interior. To establish residence as re quhii by the homestead law, there must be a combination of act and In tent, the act of occupying and living on the claim and the Intention of mak ing the same a home to the exclusion of a home elsewhere. Resdlence Is not es tablished or maintained by occasional visits to the lanl. Inhabitancy must exist In good faith and be exercised to the exclusion of a home elsewhere. To acqu're residence under the home stead law the former residence must be abandoned, nnd such change can be effected only by the concurrent act and Intention of the settler. To estab lish residence there must be. concur rent with the act of settlement, or go ing upon the land, an Intent to make It a home to the unqualified exclusion of one elsewhere. Fitness of the land as a permanent abode, the period of in habitancy, and the claimant's relation to the land after final proof, may be considered In determining whether the claim of resldtnc Is made In good faith. A claim of residence I not con sistent with the substantial mainten ance of a home elsewhere. Acts Indi cating an intention to make the land home to the exclusion of one else where are requlr?d to establish the fact of residence In go?d faith. Occasional nr periodical visits, or even continu ous presence on the land, not with a view of making It a permanent home, to the exclusion of one elsewhere, but merely for the purpose of carrying out the letter of the law. and with Intent to discontinue Inhabitancy at the end of the period required, Is not In any proper sense compliance with law, no matter how honest the entryman may be In bellivlng he Is complying with the law.
