Weir had insulted his wife several nights
ago. Weir states that one evening he
noticed a gang of toughs annoying a
woman in the vicinity of the Plaza, and
in his capacity as a peace officer inter
fered and told the woman she would not
be molested any more If she went home
and attended to her. business. Mrs. Jones
told her husband of the Incident", and the
next time he sawWir he.,abuhhn

Several days later Mrs. Jones met Weir-
and thanked him for coming to -her res
cue at the time of the first meeting and
stated that her husband would apolo
gize .to him at tne first opportunity for
his harsh remarks.
The mix-up of last night was 'the af
termath of the proceedings. Instead of.
rendering an apology for his conduct
Jones made 4 vicious and uncalled for
assault on Weir which resulted in Jones
being knocked down and having his head
badly cut by coming In contact with the
curb stone. ' .
The men were taken to the station by
Police Officers Carr and Kltghmlller.
Jones, who was drunk, became abusive
and had to be locked In the patrol box

JAIL ;BII?DS
Some. Men Who Prefer
; Prison Life,
A USEFUL TRUSTY
How a Logger Works Himself Into
Jail When He Copies
to Town
Lounging around the city Jail, where
they get their board and loglng free,
are several, inmates who would rather
reside in prison quarters than to be on
the' outside, where they would bo obliged
to work for a living.
This, is shown by the fact that aa soon
as their, terms of imprisonment expires,
they commit some trivial offense In or
der to get re-sentenced. Some of them
are ideal prisoners, and are given con
siderable freedom, as long as their ac
tions confdrm with the rules laid down
for the "trusties" to follow.
One of these "trusties" is a young
man about 20 years of age. He is good.
looking and Intelligent, but has no high
er ambition than to bask in the . favor
of" the jail, officials, and get his share of
the prison fare. He runs errands and
makeg himself generally useful, perhaps
doing as much" work as some who are
out in the busy world toiling Vir a Mvll
hood. At times he gathers Vn a few
s heckles from the newcomers who, are
guests only for 'a day cr two. He It
Said to be perfectly happy and contented
with Is lot, and would not exchange
positions with any wage-earner in the
city.
The Jail also has an attraction for an
other class of "citizens." These are
the opium fiends, nnd nre lost to all
sense of respectability. Four or five of
these characters Bre now regular board
era at the Jail, and always plan to make
their stay there as prolonged as posst.
ble. When .the day arrives for them t
lip released from confinement, they be
come uneasy, and dread the freedom
which most people cherish. No sooner
aro they out than they are' seized with
desire to get back, and If a roaring
drunk will not acomplish it, some more
serious offense will. And thus tSey put
in their time from month to month and
year to year.
There is a certain logger down the riv
er wno never comes to town, it is said.
without passing the first mght of his
visit here In Jail. He has served time
In a state penltetnlary. and It Is believed
that he became so attached to prison sur
roundings, during his incarceration, that
he cannot resist, the temptation of break
ing into the old .llaunts occasionally. To
get Into Jail he invariably adopts the
same methods. He takes a few drinks
and then turns loose with a tirade of
abuse on the first ofliwr he meets.
until prison, rules are mor? strict
here," said a getnleman todav. "the
Portland jail will always have a good
numoer or poardeis who will be hard
to get rid of. V ery few are ever put on
the rockplle. Many of the regular guesw
are looked upon ns privileged characters.
and theyare never j-eaulredta perform
any arduous duties. This Is the principal
reason why they like to stay there.
Until a different policy Is adopted they
will continue to subsist upon the free
food provided by the taxpayers."
THE BILL BOARD NUISANCE.
In an Interview with Miss Edith 1
Nlles. the secretary of the Lewis and
Clark Civic Improvement Assoclatoln rel
ative to the bill board nuisance, she
said:
"My sentiments regarding this matter
are fully explained In a following flip
ping from a paper which says that the
Commlsloners of the District of Columbia
have taken steps to reetrlcAhe billboard
nuisance, as the cities of Rochester. Buf-
alo, New York. Chicago and Memphis
have done and as Cincinnati ought to
do. According to the Washington Post,
the complaints to the Commissioners
have been numerous and persistent
against the manner in which the bill
boarders have distributed their board
ings and their bills. The regulations
ddpted require the payment of an an-
ual tax of J2 for each square yard of
area Intended for use as billboards, and
the Commissioners reserve to themselves
the right to designate the places where
the boards may be erected, and the man
ner of their construction. The written
authority for the erection of bilboards
must contain an accurate statement of
the number 'of square yards of area to
used at each location, together With
the amcKint of tax to be paid. Excep
tions are made in favor o, persons who
advertise their own business on the prem
ises wherein it is conducted. ,
The regulations of . o Commissioners
are reasonable in the highest degree.
They recognize as Cincinnati does not
the reaBonabtoftqss" of the 'proposition
that billboards, occupying public streets
and public places, should contribute' to
the public treasury, and the reasonable
ness of the other proposition, that the
city authorities should have and retain
control over the location, the size and
the material of which the-billboards are
constructed. These matters are all with
in the discretion of the Commissioners,
ss they should be within the discretion
of the municipal authorities f Cincin
nati. It Is not easily explained why bill
boards are allowed' to go free of taxes
and regulations, while the business of
others Is taxed and regulated. !v'm,,.:

Early Sunday morning a train of cars

into Portland from North Yakima, and
the 1000 people carried on them Will imme

Rlngling Brothers Immense circus, which
Shows in this city Monday and Tuesday
next, The big canvasses will be spread
at Twenty-second and Savler streets, and
all the pavilions will be open for public
Inspection except the menagerie tent.
Sunday Is a day of rest for circus people,
and only such work as Is absolutely nec
essary is done on that day. There are
609 horses and ponies with the show, and
the quality and appearance of this stock
has been much admired elsewhere, so
that no doubt these tents will be a cen
ter of attraction for the Sunday crowds.
Of course there is a never falling Interest
to the publlo in the cook and dining
tents. To see an army of several hundred
men fed in the open with the system and
promptness of a big circus like Rlngling
Brothers' Is a sight worth a long journey
and great inconvenience.
The Rlngling Brothers' show is now
quoted as a leader, and tx undeniably the
biggest of all In the circus world. , At
this time they parry thirty elephants, al
most half of ttwv entire number in the
t'rited Stales, ana aluo claim to have
the. only giraffe in captivity. The giraffe
Is now the rarest of wild animals, and
therefore. It is the ambition of all zoolog
ical collectors to get one. The Rlngllngs
have 130,000 tied up In the beast, and
naturally are quite boastful of their pos
session. She is about 18 months old,
beautifully marked and shaped, and Is
looked upon aa tbe finest specimen ever
seen In this country; The London Zoo
had a giraffe until last winter, when it
took cold and went the way of all good
giraffes. The Rlngling treasure Is cared
for like royalty, and has a special cage
and car to herself, us well as groom who
waits on her by lrtches. The giraffe Is the
only wild beast that - cannot utter a
sound, nor does It ever touch water or
neat. TRIh one Is fed on fine herbage and
chopped vegetables. She Is affectionate
to a degree, and her spirits droop woeful
ly whenever her keeper leaves her.

RICH MINES
Big Strike in the New
Monarch
SOME FINE ONNIBAR
Tbe North Pole and Columbia Each
Have Fine Ore in .
Sight.
A rich strike Is said to have been
made In the winse being sunk on the.
Northi Monarch vein, one of tbe Red Boy
group, last week. . The wlnxe is now
down to a considerable depth below the
old workings, and has been all the way
in good ore, that has1 already Increased
In value as depth was attained. The ore
from the bottom of the wlnxe essays up
Into the tousands." " On the' Helen ledgo
another of the Red Boy group, a new
pay chute has been found, assays from
which show values about the $900 mark.
The Black Pine placer mine has just
made its annual clean-up, and while Itg
owners do not care to have the yield '
made publlo, It is known that the sea
sen's work demonstrated the ground to
be worth about $1.80 per cublo yard. This
claim was partly worked years ago, dur
Ing the placer mining days of Eastern Or.
egon, but was abandoned on account of
the scarcity of water, and the very short
season In which even the small supply
possible, was available. The company
owns ground about two miles, in length,
and the pay gravel is from 50 to 100 feet
wide, and from 8 to IB feet deep. The
comp'any is now surveying a ditch that
will give them next season some 800
Inches more water.
ONNIBAR IS A FEATURE
Of nearly all the placers of Oregon, both
In the eastern and southern mines. Boul
ders of its ore found In abundance In the
Robinsonville and Olive creek placers,
and the famous Psyche ores, are bright
ened by beautiful vermlllion specks of It.
D. W. C. Nelson, a mining engineer who
passed through here recently, had some
fine specimens of clnnlbar, some of which
contained free quick silver, and ran as
high as 30 per cent in the pure product
These ores, whfle widely scattered over
the Eastern Oregon gold field;ere
erany in small bodies too small fdrproe-
tical working. Some of the quarts mines,
however, carry enough to be something
of a nuisance. There were portions of
the Golden Eagle ore worked by the
writer hereof, that would "flood tha
plates," that Is, would yield so much
free quick silver that It would geep the
plates too soft, and, Indeed, run off Into
the traps. Of all the mines now being
operated in the, Sumpter district, and
there are some " good ones, there ai
none
BETTER THAN THE NORTH POLE.
Mr. Alexander Baring, of London, the
owner of this famous mine, is now at
the property, and Is, of course, highly
pleased with its showing." Arrange
ments have been made for shipping the
values out In the forrn of concentrates.
When this Is done the monthly yield of
the mine will be made public, a thing
not heretofore done, for the reason that
the carrying of thousands of dollars In
gold, bullion over mountain roads, was
not a thing those who had It to carry
cared to advertise. Not loner n srn ih
North Pole was on the market, but re
cent strikes have caused it to bo with
drawn and now there is no price on it.
Less than a year ago it was valued at
$T50,000, but today It would take from
seven to ten times that amount to own
Its title deeds. The E. & E. Is on the
North Pole ledge, nnd though Idle at
present. Is held at $500000. The Colum,
bla shaft Is down 800 feet, and is In rich
ore. Its owners recently refused Tnp
P00 for It. These all sound like big fig
ures, out iney are true, and renresent
big facts.
