The Police Court
Judge Anderson held a brief session
of the municipal court yesterday after
noon several offender having been called
to the attention of his honor. A young
man named Smith was before the court
charged with being a vagrant Officers
' linville and Houghton had observed Mr.
Smith on several occasions frequenting
saloons in the "restricted district." Mr.
Smith's principal occupation in life
seemed to be in entertaining divers au
diences with the harmonious tones of
his voice. Asked why he was given to
singing Mr. Smith bashfully stated that
he liked to hear tbe musical cadenzas
of his harmonious warblings and Judge
Anderson thought that Superintendent
of Streets Kearney needed a baritone
cantata to enliven the performances of
the "opera bouffe" street cleaners, for(
about 15 days. Mr. Peter Munson is J
given to riding in buggies at unseemly
hours of the morning, and this penchant
which Peter has indulged in. along with
different brands of hilarious juice,
brought him to the attention of the
eourt. Mr. Munson owned up to having
consumed '"some" strong water and also
might have indulged in nocturnal drives,
and in order that he may cure himself
of these distressing habits, Judge Ander
son fined him $20 and he was allowed
to depart with the instruction to keep in
the straight and narrow path of sobriety,
unless he wanted to eongh up the 20
"Uncle Sam's." Another drunk thought
fully left a $5 bill with Chief Gamma)
and" it was added to the city treasury.

TEXT OF REPORT.
Master Fish Wlardeu It. G. Van Dusen
presented his monthly report to the
board of fish commissioners, who wore
in session t Salem, yesterday. The re
port shows that nine arresU were made
for violations of the Halting law, but
two conviction being had in the eases:
Hatchery Operations.
Reports received from our different
const hatcheries show that very fair col
lection of spawn have been made at all
of the stations tributary to tbe coast
streams, notwithstanding that this sea
son has Wen, without any exceptions,
the most unfavorable for the collection
of sjwwn in those streams that we have
ever had to contend with. The aggre

vided up as follows:
Tillamook; 2.493,000 Chinook and 1,
895,000 Silversides. total 4,388,000; Ya

200. The work collecting Silverside spawn
on the Cotpiille has only just begun.
This shows considerable of a contrast
with what was done at the Columbia
River Stations, especially with those on
the Upper Columbia where complete
failures were made again this year, with
weather and water conditions favoring
them. The stations tributary to the
Willamette did fairly well; and if not
for these which were operated on the
Clackamas below the Cazadcro Dam and
on the McKenzie River, we would have
made practically speaking, no showing
whatever for the Columbia this season.
The result of the efforts set forth at
these stations show as follows:

Palace Restaurant.
A successful year has just closed for
the Palace Restaurant and a new year
opens. This yean will, to doubt, be as
successful for this nnmilnr iwstjmrant as
the past if not more so. The manner of
treating the guests pursued there can
not but tend to hold the trade and bring
those who have never heard of the
Palace.
