1. OVER THE CAPITAL CITY. Complete Itccital of the Daily Doings Com piled From Various Sources. Happenings Over the City nnd News From the Country Roundabout. Tear drowlie In Oregon. J. J. Harden, an experienced hor ticulturists of Marion county says pear trees in the Willamette valley begin to bear in three or four years after being transplanted into the orchard row, and although there is not always an abundant, or even a. profitable, crop, still there has been Bomo fruit every year since the first trees planted began to bear. One man can cultivate and care for an orchard of 20 acres, but of course will require help in harvesting. Twenty acres in pears properly culti vated will yield an annual profit of of $2000. The mining regions and blight stricken territory farther East furnish a demand for all possible supplies. Through the Influence of land agents and interested parties the Btrauger Is liable to be disap pointed, for a large portion of the land in the valley is not adapted to the profitable production of pears. Brother Hell Not Suspended. When Governor Pennoyer ap pointed the railroad commission ho also appointed Rev. J. B. Bell as secretary, and when last Wednes day he dismissed the commissioners ho did not dismiss the seeretury. This leaves Brother Bell occupying an honorary position, viz: the sec retaryship of a defunct commission. As the secretary was appointed by the governor and has had no inti mation that his services were no longer required ho will continue to fill the vacuum and draw his salary of $2000 a year at least until in re ceipt of advice on the matter. How Wc Are looming The Baleni real estate agents are calling tho attention of eastern peo ple to this particular section of coun try to an extent novcr beforo done. They aro advertising in hundreds of eastern papers, besides sending out thousands of pamphlets descriptive of tho country. That extra good times for this mlddlo Willamette valley aro in tho near future wo vorily believe. Already scores of new people from tho frozen regions nro hero inspecting our goodly land.

In his guarded cell In the Oregon Insane Asylum, Frank Corea, the lunatic and would-be murdere and Biilcide, walks tho floor and tells the talo of his rash deeds. His story meets with ample coroborration and and there can no longer bo a doubt but the bullets that pierced Frank A. Avery flew from the pistol of the maniac. Late on the night of the assassi nation Corea stopped at tho resi dence of F. E. Fldridge, on the Sa lem and Champoeg road. Here he recited tho story minutely and cor rectly. He told of tho two men Avery and McKay, he of the blondo iTiiistache fluarrellmr over a wom an and threatening him with a ter rible fate. To save himself, as ho supposed tho shooting was done. He told Mr. Eldrldgo ho knew ho got his man once, having shot him in tho neck. He BayB he fired five shots. Three struck Avery and two left their marks on the car. When arrested Corea had an un expired ticket to San Francisco, In his pocket. It bore the punch mark of conductor Wilson, under whoso charge tho Tuesday night's train was. There Is no reasonable doubt but that Corea Is the guilty ono, and it also Is as certain that Avery is con cealing not a little. If he would talk but no clam ever kept more tightly closed than tho wounded man. UEAIi ESTATE TRANSACTIONS.

It Is learned that so thoroughly are they afraid of tho disease, that besides allowing no one to pass the block In which tho pa tient Is located, the guards are au thorized to shoot every animal that chances to get to close to tho house. Since tho quarantine was inatigurted a number of fine dogs and cats havo boon ruthlessly shot down and sent to tho unknown country where the mourndoodlo wnngeth and smallpox tronbleth not. Almost a Suicide. Late Saturday night tho alarm was sounded throughout tho Cho- mokoto hotel that a man had com mitted sulcldo by hanging. Tho night clerk and laudlord were sum moned and hastily repaired to the scene of tho supposed shullllng oil' this mortal ooll. They found a stuffed man dangling from tho elev ator cross-bar nothing moro. Life was extinct beforo tho stlflenlng corpso could bo cut down. Speed The Plow.

Both IIou$es Re-Assenble This Afternoon And Go To Work. Speaker Smith Makes His Appoint ments of Standing Committees. Both tho Senate and House re-assembled at two p. m., to-day. The Senate proceeded Immediate ly with the routine of work and in traduction of bills, of which may promise to appear. The House heard tho reading of the appointment of standing com mittees by Speaker Smith. They were read In such a manner that it was Impossible for a short hand re porter to catch them. 0UU PEN PICTURES. Short Sketches of Our Law Makers And Prominent Men. A soeclal feature of the Capital Journal in the future will bo that of life-like pen pictures of prominent men of tho state. Beginning with this issue our sketch artist has leveled his camera upon the visages of some of Oregon's legislators and their likenesses will from day to day be placed in cold type for the edification of our numerous readers. In his delineations of traits and characteristics it is one of tho re quirements that the man to be photographed should submit to the interview process. This our artist performs without pain and each member will be given a trial at the other end of the pump. To-day we take pleasure lu sub mitting the follewing: HON. E. n. GAMBEE. Mr. Gambee comes from Umatilla countv. and Is serving his first term In the House of Representatives. Ho is a native of Michigan, and came west seven years ago, and af ter looking around decided to cast his lot in Oregon, where he has re sided over since. He is an exten sive sheep dealer and quite an In fluential citizen. Mr. Gam boo is very courteous to strangers seeking Information at tho Capitol and is an earnest worker. He can be found at his desk at any time. Mr. Gambee is classed among tho younger mem bers, being only thirty-six years of age. Ho is a member of the demo cratic nine in the House, there be ing but that number of democrats hi tho House. His postolllce address Is Alba. HON. II. I. NAPTON. Mr. Napton halls from Saline county, Missouri, and is serving his first term as representative for the good people of Malheur county. He is a prominent lawyer and has a very creditable practice. Mr. Nap ton's postolllce address is Yale. He is another ono of tho representatives classed In the "thirties," being thirty-three years of age. Mr. Napton belongs to the "reform party" or, plainly speaking, tho democratic party. He looks forward with anxiety to the year of '02 whon tlio great contest will again bo renewed by tho two parties for the control of tho nation, and feels that there may again bo a possible show for democ racy to hold tho reins of our gov ernment, although Mr. Napton Is not ono of thoso r.ullcal politicians. Wo hope to seo him return again to Borvo tho people but would bo bet ter pleased to have him return a full fledged republican. Dou't be Fooled. There aro men traveling tho country with samples of cloth, for making suits lo order, who claim that they make suits In San Fran cisco and tho oast cheaper than As toria tailors can. There aro mer chants who receive samples of cloth from eastern manufacturers, and claims to tako the measure of any ono nnd have suits mado In tho cast. This Is an untruth. Tho samples shown, aro samples of ready mado suits, mado by Chlnumeu. They tako your measure, you select your oloth, nnd thoy send you a ready China mado suit from the east, claiming it to havo boon made to order. Dou't be deceived by any such nonscuse. If you want a suit made to order, patronize homo tail ors. If you want n ready made suit lnmo firms keep all tho latest styles and soil cheaper than any out side stores. A merchant of Astoria stated recently that tho merchants who advertise must charge moro for their goads than he did, who does not advertise. This is not true. Tho merchant who advertises, soils ten suits to his one, and keeps a fresh stock. Ho can afford to Bell for a less profit than tho merchaut who only gets a stock of goods in once a year, uud sells on an average on suit n week. Pioneer. LOCAL SUMMART. A rail factory is to bo established at Oregon City In tho near future. Painless dental operations at Dr. T. C. Smith, 02 State street, tf. Begular meeting of tho "W. C. T. U. at their hall Tuesday at 2:30 o'clock. It Is tho general feeling that the House will get down to earnest work this week. The Monmouth Observer has re moved to Dallas, where an opposi tion paper has longibeen needed. Tho town clock is on a strike. As it gives but three pealsfor eleven, wo surmlso it is kicking for less hours. Quite a number of the repre sentatives and senators came in Sunday to be ready forj.buBlness to day. Mr. A. Mitchell, a practical and eomnetent miller from Illinois, has accepted a position in the North Sa lem flour mill. Mr. Northcut, who recently purchased the Pugh & German llverv stable, is having somo needed Improvements, placed on the same. Everybody wonders who could hovn shot Avcrv. but no one won ders who takes those splendfd photo graphs. They know it Is Cherrlng- ton, tho artist. Now that tho scheme to establish a creamery at Corvallis has fallen through with, would it not be well to agitate tho organization of such a company here. Miss Ida Anderson of Jefferson is in the city, visiting friends. She will return about the last of the week, accompanied by her sister, Miss Emma, who is attending scnooi at tho University. A newsnaner man of much ex perience, J. L. Mitchell, late of Ill inois, Is now on the Journal staff. Wo bespeak for him that warm welcome that is usually accorded members of our force. Dr. C. B. Darrln and wife last night took their departure for Eu gene, where the doctor will open up an office for treatment of the af flicted. One of tho doctors, how ever, remains here and will servo the wants of the sick. You will at all times find a fresh and nice lino of choice, seasonable family, and fancy groceries at the old reliable and well-known grocery house of Soulre Farrar & Co. De livered free to any part of tho city. Prices always reasonable and goods first class. tf Tho nonulatlon of Salem was In creased last year over 1,000 souls, mid its transfers of real estate amounted to over a million dollars. Everything there is now wide awake, and this year's increase will be materially larger In all directions. Dallas paper.
