The reporter strolled up to the race j
track yesterday and was surprised at the
preparations which are already made
for the coming fair. The track ia in aa
good, if not better, shape than it ever
wes, and as it is being worked and
prinkled daily, it will be Btill better by
he time the fair commences. Stables
and pens are also in readiness for stock.
and in fact there is little left for the com
mittee to do. Suretto, Mamie D, Jim
Crow and Princess are kopt at the
grounds, while a number of other horses
are kept an town and are brought to the
track dallv for training. Most of the
borees from Salem will not arrive
fore Monday, as the state fair does
close until tonight.
A bold tramp entered the residence of
Mr. Ed. Harman yesterday evening and j
demanded something to eat. Mrs. Har- j
man, who was getting supper, stated i
that she had nothing ready which she !
could give him. He then undertook to j
help himself to everything in sight, y
After taking what he wanted, he left the laay
house, and although tbe officers n-ade a I
diligent search they could not firl him, j I
He is described as being about 18 years
old, medium height, smooth faced, and
wore a reddish brown hat, dark coat and
vest and light trousers. Mrs. Harman
was terribly frightened, and is ill this
morning in consequence. This was an
unusually daring act for a tramp to per
petrate in daylight, and the offender
ebould be sought out and taught an ob
ject lesson that will cure him of such
pranks.
DISASTROUS FIRE AT PORTLAND.
of Zimmerman's
House Friday.
I'acklne
The Zimmerman packing house on
the Macadam road near Portland, was
destroyed by fire between 12 and 1
o'clock yesterday morning. Owing to
the distance from the center of the city,
the fire department did not reach the
scene until the building was nearly all
in flames and beyond saving anything
but a small portion.
The fire originated in the boneroom
near the engine-room, but how it started
is a mystery. An alarm wa3 turned in
from box 73 by William Porter, an em
ploye in Powers' furniture department,
which brought out engines 4 and 5,
truck 2 and hose 2.
The capacity of this plant waa about
300 head of hogs daily, 50 head of cat
tle and 200 head of sheep. It waa fur
nished with a fine engine, boilers and
cold-storage apparatus. The original
De j plant was valued at $50,000, and last
not i spring Mr. Zimmerman put in aoout
$8000 worth of improvements, including
ome fine refrigerator machinery. The
stablishment was built only a little
ver a year ago. L. Zimmerman ia the
irincipal stockholder and manager. The
jacking house wa9 running at full force,
ind employed over a dozen men. The
total loss will foot up over $85,000.

Sheriff Driver goes there in the cause
of justice. About two years ago a book
peddler, while traveling on the- road in
Grant county, was murdered and his
body cremated in an attempt to destroy
all evidence of the crime. A man named
Brown was arrested, charged with the
killing, and upon trial was convicted of
murder in the second degree and is now
in the state penitentiary. Circumstan
tial evidence was tbe main factor in
securing a conviction.
In jail at Canyon City at piesent,
ia a man by the name of Hinckle,
charged with being an accomplice ot
Brown, and his trial will take place ct
his term of the court. Sheriff Driver is
firm in bia conviction that Brown and
Hinckley are innocent men, and he
thinks he has sufficient evidence in his
possession to prove it. He will make
the effort, but how well he will succeed
remains to be Been. East Oregonian.
