In reply to a letter from Lafayette
regarding the raising of the quar
antine, Dr. E. E. Goucher, of Mc-

Killed a SbarL.
On Wednesday a feat was perform
ed atjSowport,says theiXews, which
was very novel and surprising,
Mrs. Fanny Seiforth and Miss Mary
Wcstfall who with a number of
their friends, all from Pqlk county,
were spending a few days by tho
seaside, and while standing "upon a
log which projected out into the bay,
discovered a large fish slowly swinr
mlng toward them. They procured
a largo rock, and when tlie fl9h came
close along side hurled the missle
at him, and strange to say hit him
square on tho back which projected
a little above tho surface of the
water. This cutirely paralyzed their
victim, and rendered him an easy
prey. They dragged him ashore,
and the fuiinv looking fish proved
to bo a veritable shark three and a
half feet In length.
m Salmon Salad.
The fish commissioners will take
charge of tho Clackamas hatchery
on November 1st. There are be
tween 4,000,000 and 5,000,000 eggs at

going nlong swimmingly, but the
fiuh won't bo ready to turu, out for a
month or six weeks yet.
The strike among the salmon
fishermen along the coast has
delayed tho nrraugements entered
into by tho fish commissioners for
stalklngOrogou waters with McLeod
river salmon, so that nothing can he
done this year.
Mr. Thompson, one of the com
misbionenIu of the opinion that sal
mon when hatched stay In the
rivers for from eighteen months to
two years before going to the sea,
and weigh from two to three pounds
when they first tmrte salt waier.
He Is furthermore of the opinion,
lacked by careful observation, that
the salmon of each river always re
turn to the same stream, and do nt
enter new waters. :

be able to sell a ood deal of our
bort wheat cron of this yoar at a
higher price than he ever got In

on lots already sold and roads aro
being opened and bridges built so
that the value of all of the lots is
being rapidly enhanced. Any ono

land for much less than the price of
