Xrr Tina at 80 Cent.
'I, Egg price are being held firm at SO
cent a dosen today on account of the
slightly smaller receipt and the larger
demand. Although there might be a
wry alight falling off In receipts, stilt
there la about enough of the stock ar-
I riyinf to suit all demands, in egg

today on account of smaller Receipts
and a heavier demand. Arrivals of poul
try stock on the street are quite liberal,
but the extra heavy demand and the
cleaning up of the markets each day
caused the commission men to bold
for higher figure. Some turkeys ar
rived on the street this morning, but
as the stock Is not of the best quality
the demand Is off and prices are lower.
Condensed Cream X TTp.
The manufacturer of Borden's brand
of Pony condensed cream have notified
local wholesalers of an advance of 15
cents a case In ' quotations. The rise
in price was caused by advances made
lately by other manufacturers.
... Bop lrloe Take Tump. , ,
The Portland Cordage Works an
nounces that beginning with July It
the present quotations on Cowboy rope
will be advanced cents a pound over
the present basis caused by higher
ruling prices for raw material.
Potato Begin to Drop.
It Is not very likely that the quota
tions on last year's crop " of Oregon
Burbanks will show another advance
during the present season. The mar
let In San Francisco, although noml
naMr fceldvup "to- Its former- elght ty
Uie who- had- bought stock Is really
lower,, and by tbe Arrival of the -next
steamer quotations will most likely go
down with a bang. According to one or
the larger, buyer on the . street,, potato
men in this city have cold reet and are
carrying around a little Japanese poclfet
stove to keep up their circulation.
' Steamer Leave Potato Ob Dock.
On account of the press of other
freight, the steamer Columbia which is
next to leave for the Bay City, will not
take the full amount Of potatoes of
fered for shipment to the South. In all
about 1,600 sacks were' offered and are
on the dock, but It Is not thought that
more., than 1,000 sacka. will be carried
on this trip. ; Potato price In this city
hav already begun to slump, some buys
being made yesterday a low as 88
cents. New stock Is being held firm at
top quotations.
. Canned Meat Are Higher.
The manufacturer of Llbby's brands
of fancy canned meat have announced
a large advance In quotations to take
effect at once.
The fresh meat market is rather
alow, arrivals being small and demand
about the same for most stocks. . Veal
is still in fair call and the call for
block hogs I fairly good at quotations,
Prime beef Is in some demand, but bulls
and cows are weaker. "
, Ifo Advano On Steelheaa.
In the lower river the run of Steel t
head salmon-was some what better ye-
rday and the attempt of the combine
.advance quotations waa lost the re
ceipt being too great to aamit or sucn
a move at this time, bmau nan are
scarce,
Wotting Doing- tn Wheat
There Is nothing doing In the wheat
market at this time, the buys being
nominal as well as the supplies. Flour
prices are being held firm, but the
market has no tendency either for
higher or lower prices. Feed is not
held quite so stiff on aoteount6fthe
shutting off' In .the heavy -demand for
stocks from the California markets.

TARANTULAS ARE
COMING IN FAVOR
Smalt Boys Catch These Formidable Spiders at
the Rate of Two for a Nickel Gathering of , ;
Annual Crop Is Now In Progress. 5 "
On of th oddest Industries In the
United States Is that of the tarantula
collector of 'California.
. Thousands of the formidable spld
er are caught each year and sold to
curio dealers, who find a ready market
among tourists for them at 25 to 50
cent apiece.
The collectors are usually boys who
get 214 cents apiece for their quarry
Tbe hoodquarters of the industry are
In Pasadena, near which pUce the spid
ers are fairly plentiful. Their numbers
have been greatly reduced throughout
the stat In the last few years, how
ever.
Th methods employed In gathering
th annual tarantula crop are Interest
ing. From June until October, when the
sun- burn hot and the sea breeses are
pulverising the dry earth Into velvety
dust, the great spiders crawl from their
subterranean burrows Into the upper
world and promenade sedately In minia
ture forests of cacti, sagebrush and
dry grasses. Their usual headquarters
are In adobe fields, quite Isolated from
the haunts of man, where the soil In
dark and corresponds to their dusky
hue.
The collector's outfit consists of a
large water, bucket, a pair of pincers
and a large number of tin cans or glass
Jars with covers. All the social and do
mestic affections of the spiders resolve
themselves into hatred when they are
placed together In. captivity, and they
kill and eat one another with the most
the same receptacle. For' this reason
many cans are needed, ao that each
spider may be relegated to Individual
quarters.
When In localities where tarantulas
are known to be numerous the boys
search diligently for the entrances to
the spider homes, which are always
designated by a white, silken web that
outlines the rim of the hole snd gives
a smooth and elegant finish to the walls
for an Inch or two below th surface.
Tarantulas are notoriously lasy and sel
dom dredge out their domestic estab
lishments, being quite content to oc
cupy some deserted gopher hole, making
no alterations In the general arrange
ment of the place, except to hang the
higher wall with arausy drapery.
When the boys find a promlstng-look-
ng hole they pour in a quantity of.
cold water, for which tarantulas have
n lntenae aversion. Their black, hnlry ,
coats are well oiled, and water slips
from them as it doe from a duck'
back, but nevertheless they don't like
uch treatment, and come forth In re
sponse to the deluge, all blustering and
bristling and primed for battle. But
they are unable to cope with the enemy
and his pincers, and are Immediately
grabbed and placed in cans, where in
defeat and anguish they clash their
mandibles together.
The spiders are killed by Immersion
gasoline and turpentine, and a tub
full of the writhing creatures presents
an original and startling appearance.
ometlmes In their death struggle they
grapple with one another, getting thelf .
10 legs Irreparably entangled with those .
of their combatants, but usually death .
comes too quickly to permit of such oo- .",
currences. ' ." '
Chloroform Is sometimes used to kill
the bugs, but It Is objectionable be
cause it loosens the fuss of the spider,
whkh, If dropped on tha hands of thu
taxidermist, aorncttmes causes an lrrl ' '' '
tatlnn of the skin. ' .'',;
The process of curing in simple, only
arsenic and white cotton batting being T
used. After blng embalmed, th taran-' . v
tula' legs, which curled tight under
them during their final geetlculstlon. . ,
are stretched out Into natural angle. '
pinned Into position on boards and left
to dry. When ready for the market ,
they arc mounted on cards. ;V: ;
In spite of the extensive trade In th
venomous goods, no one I known to '
have been bitten, both men and boyi.
taking the greatest precautions.
California tarantulas are of th p i
cles Mygale avlcularta, and In six ars) -

In two divisions, each one being a
large as a small bird's egg. while th t
four-Jointed legs, five on each aide, and ' '
ranging from two to three Inches In
length, stretch out from the body In
symmetrical angles. Just above th
mandibles, which look Ilka two fat,
hairy toes with sharp-pointed nails, are
eight tiny eyes placed close together. , .' -
The corselet Is hard and hairless, but

hair. The males are black and hav .
sharp claws on their forelegs, which In
fight, are murderous weapons. Th
males are never seen except in breeding;
time, and then they are scarce. The fe
males are' In color a light brown and
have no claws on their forelegs. Their
maternal Instincts are strong.
The Mygale mother carries her egg
Inclosed In a cocoon of white silk of
very close tissue, forming two rounded
pieces united at their border. She sup
port the cocoon underneath her corselet
by means of the antennulae, and trana
ports It along with her. When pressed
by enemies, the cocoon is- temporarily
abandoned, but the mother is faithful
and if she survives the battle, always
returns to her babies.
The little ones are disclosed In rapid
Succession snd are white, the first
chango In their apearance being a trU
angular hairy spot which forms on top
of the abdomen. Sometimes 2,000 spid
ers issue from the same cocoon, and to
one who witnesses a mother spider cov
ered. over with clinging progeny th;
question arises, "Why is the earth not
overrun with spiders If each femal
brings Into the world so large a fanv
Uy?"
Entomologists claim that there being;
no substitute food provided for th
spider children, they are compelled to
eat one another. Thus in a family of
2,000. only six or 10 of the stronger ones -survive.
By that time they can catch
flies and Insects and therefor give up
canlballstlc habits.
