Tho street fair, as being held In Pert
land, had a singular origin, In an un
pretentious city in Northern Ohio a
Shylock foreclosed a mortgage on the
local agricultural fair grounds. It was
his purpose to extort from the managers
of the fair association several times the
rental valnu of the grounds for use as an
exposition, They rebelled and called a
council of war. It was decided to hold
the fair in the streets of tiie city. It
proved singularly successful.
A certain farmer at country fair for
several years always took the prizo for
tho fattest hog, When asked how he
did it, he would reply that he mude him
eat more than his other hoge, yet would
novor toll how ho did it. Ono day, how
ever, soma of his neighbors hid near tho
pen where tho prize pig was kept,
When the farmer went to feed the pig he
took three times as much feed as the
ordinary hog would eat and put it Into
tliu pen. Tho hog ate about half of it
and then laid down. The fanner then
went to another pen and brought a lean
and hungry razor-back and put him in
the pen with the prize pig. When tho
prizo pig spied him ho was calmly eat
ing the balance of the feed. Then tho
prize pig got up and began to eat. He
consumed the rest of tho feed to keep
the razor-back from getting it. That
was tho secret of the fanner's succee.
He had played on the nature of n hog,
which is to gel all you can to keop some
one else from getting it. Query : Is it
because the hog has human nature or
because tinman nature has hog Y Cor

Till Hen Has s llecord.
W. W. Bailey, of Brownsville, Ore.,
takes objection to the Alsea hen, which
continued her work of incubating while
the threshing machine in which siie had
hidden her neet was in operation, being
styled the grittiest hen in America.
He says he has a little brown Leghorn
hen which this summer stole a nest out
hy an old bed of the Calapooia river,
near hie house, in a patch of thick
underbrush. Knowing a Leghorn's
preference to a nest of her own choice,
he "supplied her with fiesh eggs during
her temporary absence," and allowed
her to proceed witii her incubation busi
ness. The day her chickens were due,
Mrs. Bailey visited the nest to see if she
was all right and discovered a polecat
lying flat beside it with its head appar
ently under her, and the hen paying no
attention to it.
She waB alarmed for the safety of the
unhatched chickens, and also the hen,
and as there was no dog and no man
around she ran to her bouse for a re
volver, and came back to hid die's
assistance with the shooting iron and a
long pole. She was afraid to shoot at
the polecat while it was bo close to the
hen, for fear of killing her, and she did
not care to take hold of or kick an
animal having the unsavory leputation
of the polecat. Hence the long pole
was provided,
Mrs. Bailey cocked the revolver,
placed tho pole under the polecat, and,
closing her eyes, throw the animal into
the air and discharged the revolver,
She is a good shot with a revolver, es
pecially when she has her eyes shut,
but she was just a little surprised when
she opened her eyes to find that the
polecat was stone dead. Examination
showod the little lien had defended her
nest against the intruder the night be
fore, and had pecked It to death. Next
day she "came off" with eleven chick
ens, which are all alive and doing well,
In view of the unparalled courage dis
played by both tho hen and his wife,
Mr. Bailey Is truly proud ol them both,
and is of the opinion that when the title
Of "grittiest hen" or ."grittiest woman"
is bestowed, that honor should come to
13i'OwiiByille.
Incident of Karly Dallea l.lfo.
President James R. Day, of the Syra
cuse, N. Y., University, spent the past
two days in the city on a visit to scenes
that wero familiar to his early boyhood.
He ia a well-preserved gentleman of 06
ye ire and more, and was accompanied
by his wife and daughter, Miss Emo
gene. In tho oarly 'CDs President Day's
father was the leading spirit of tho Peo
ple's Transportation Company, which
was organized in opposition to tho old
O. S. & N. Co. In 1804 President Day's
father made an offer to buy out the old
Umatilla House, then conducted, as
it waB for nearly forty years after
wards, by Handley & Sinnott. The
letter containing the offer was probably
misdirected, but at any rate went to
Dallas, Texas, and Handley St Sinnott
never hoard of It. Mr, Day had sold
out his interests in the People's Trans
portation Company, and not hearing
from Handley & Sinnott, concluded they
did not want to Bell, and took his family
back East, where be died many years
ago. Thus the misdirection of a letter
changed the whole history of a caravan
sory that, more than any other institu
tion in The Dalles, has been identified
with the rise and progress of the city.
Instead of presiding at the hotel office,
with the conventional diamond in his
shirt front, or possibly at intervals
slinging amber cocktails across tho bar,
young Day went back East and becaue
a preacher and president of a leading
univereary.
