is a boon to the newspaper reporter, and
it is a noticeable fact that mnuy good
items are lost to the newspaper every

hesitate to tell the reporter of mutters

to do is to stop the reporter on the street,
or any place you meet him, and tell him
you have been entertaining friends,
have been on a visit or anything that is
is in any way a matter of news. ,

Fred Fisher, of this city, gives the
following report of his experience with
'JO hens, of the Buff Leghorn variety,
that he brought from the ranch some
ninety days ago. During exactly ninety
days, ending January 3.1, instant, the
20 hens layed 84 dozen of eggs. The
average price of eggs in The Dalles
market during the three months was
not less than 30 cents a dozen. The
feed, four pounds of wheat and one
pound of bran per day, averaged a cost
of about 5 cents a day, or $4.50 for the
ninety days. The net profit, counting
nothing on the time, was $20.70. It
would be hard to name an investment
that would give as large returns as this
for so little money invested. The re
turns are more than three months in
terest on a thousand dollars at eight
pur cent.

Sai.km, Feb. 4. Doth houses convened
this morning at 1 1 :30 o'clock. The
senate spent the time till adjournment
hearing the reports of co.nmittees.
The house, by an overwhelming vote,
refused to refer the hill fixing the lia
bilities of railway companies for injuries
received by employes. The vote Is
taken as an indication of the strength of
the vote in favor of a reduction of rail
road rates.
The house paEsed Grace's bill provid
ing punishment for parties who shall be
found guilty of poieoning domestic
animals.
The senatorial vote showed 20 for
Corbett, 20 for McBride, 23 for Smith,
7 for Hermann, 2 for Fulton, 2 for
Moore, 1 for Lowell and one absent.
The housep adjourned at 1 :30 to meet
in joint session tonight to celebrate
John Marshall day.
.lotting" Fiom the Capital.
Statu Housk, Salem, Feb. 4, 1001.
The people of the state are to bo con
gratulated upon the fact that they have
elected men to represent them in the
law-making body of Oregon who are
working in the interests of the citizens
of the state, and not for the benefit of
corporations, capitalists and brokers.
Economy is the cry on everv hand, and
measures which are likely to prove cost
ly to the state, in proportion to the good j
done, are promptly frowned upon and
defeated. The daily calendars are costly
and resolutions in both houses have
been adopted, declaring for a cheaper,
more compact and lees bulky edition,
thus lessening the cost some $0000 dur
ing the rest of the session.
Both houses are ahead with the work
on hand, and all committees are busy
keeping up with the pace set.
The blind school is rather under a
cloud juet at present, and will thus re
main until the report of the joint com
mittee, appointed for the purpose of in
vestigating the affairs of that institution,
is handed in.
The slight change in the senatorial
vote on Saturday causes no comment,
being practically no change from the
'ormer position. The full strength of
the three leading candidates is now as
follows : Corbett 29, Smith 27, McBride
21. It is said here, on rather good au
thority, that some signal change iu this
vote may result duiing the coming week.
A Htupld Fakir.
An undoubted fakir, a young fellow
perhaps 24 years old, about 5 feet 8
inches tall, with pale complexion, and
wearing gtey coat, blue-black pants,
grey vest, black fore-in-hand tie, with
a horseshoe pin, bine striped shirt, and
claiming to be from the East iu the em
ploy of some excursion company run
ning between Portland and Chicago, has
been working the town, with what re
sult we have not yet fully learned. We
only know that in two cases his scheme
did not work. He introduces himself
by claiming the name of his intended
victim (or one similar and follows up
with a story about a parcel that was lett
at his lodgings iu Portland, which he
found afterward addressed to a member
of the family he is seeking to victimize.
He oilers to express it to the party to
whom it is addressed for an advance of
$1.50.
The fellow attempted to work this
very transparent racket Saturday at a
residence on Fourth 6trept, introducing
himself by saying that his name was
very like that of the resident and claim
ing that a parcel worth $10 and ad
dressed to one of the family had been
left at his room in Portland, and hap
pening to be here he thought he would
call and let the party know. For $1.50
cash in hand he would, on his return to
Portland, forward the parcel prepaid to
The Dalles. The scheme did not work,
The lady to whom the parcel was said
to be addreesed assured Ms fukirship
that If any parcel hail been addressed to
her, it would never have been delivered
at the room of a young man in Portland.
The game was tried on Miss Emma ,
Roberts, of Dry Hollow, and with the I
same result. Here the fakir claimed that
his name was Roberts mid that the par-
eel left at his room in Portland, which ,
Miss Roberts could have sent to her for
$1.50, was worth $12
Again he failed,
but we shall not be surprised to hear
that this very transparent fake has
trapped somebody.
