CATHOLIC FAIR
A Financial and Social Success
Tne Catholic fair closed last night with
a large attendance. It was a financial
success, as well as a pleasant social
occasion, enjoyed by all. The booths
did well, the meals were well vao
nized. the contests entered into with
zest, the sweet cider appreciated, and
the programs listened to with interest.
The program test evening, as given
in the Democrat, was a good one,
well carried out.
The contest tor votes for the most
popular young lady became spirited to
wards the end. 792 votes at J0c each
were cast, Miss Maggie Shea leading

bridge at the edge of the water. There
. was a deer bunt at once, and a dead
duck in a lew minutes, iwoaavsmore
and the deer would have been immune.
Several weeks ago two Smith Broth
ers were arrested for killing more than
the limit of Elk up the Calapooia, three.
One was nned and tne otner discharged
it has since been learned that five deer
in all. four cows and a bull were killed.
The carcasses of two or three have
been found on the ground. Who did it
is a question the gams warden would
like to know.
Deputy Game Warden Munkers, of
this city, and Green, of Portland, went to
Lebanon today. Mr. Green is the war
den mentioned in the Portland papers
as having arrested J. F. Watts, a well
known lawyer who once tried a divorce
case in Albany, for killing more than the
limit of ducks, resultiug in a live bout
between them.
It transpires that instead of resign
ing, as reported in the papers, State
Game Warden Baker was squeezed out
of the office, and, as a matter of fact,
never knew a thing about the change
until he read it in the Portland Journal.
He has made the most efficient game
warden the state ever had.
The last day for killing deer, but the
pheasants will be open for engagements

Those Portland Bankers. j
When the Portland Bankers asked
for five holidays to help out the situa- .
tion the Governor objected and sug
gested the clearance house receipt
olan. but they insisted on the holid .vs
as necessary and the nroelamation was
issued. After one day s trial the Port
land bankers themselves opened and
proceeded on the plan suggested. The
Governor would at unce nave revoked
the proclamation if possible. It nut
him in a box just through the foolish
ness of the Portland bankers.
A Rooter's Club.
A meeting was called yesterday af
ternoon for the purpose of organizing
a rooters club. A great deal of en
thusiasm was manifest amonr the
students and speeches were made by

the college spirit. A club was orga

HALLOWE'EN
Results in the Usual Amount of
Cussedness.
It was Hallowe'en, a night of revelry
along the boulevards of the metropolis
of Linn.
The twelve year old bov. after prom
ising his mother to be good, was out
running like a coyote from street to
street and yard to yard, turning over
old fences, tearing oil' rot tin pickets,
leaving Doards on people s steps ano
making havoc with loose things gener
iillv. rininer more work in three hours
j than they could he hired to do at any
price. A big stump in a t erry street
yard, was moved several blocks, the
work of a strong team.
Bigger boys were also out, and,
though there were a couple of guards,
the college books ,receiveo their cus
tomary mixup, hut no damage was done
except to the feelings of those who had
to staighten things and theguard which
got left.
Most things have to be overlooked on
Hallowe'en, and perhaps it is well to
have blind eyes about one for a day
or cwo.
