A RUSH OF TRAVELLERS,
The Southern Pacific Enjoying a
Boom in Passenger
Traffic.
Society People May Celebrate the New
Year by a Social Reunion at
Del Monte.

One of the largest trainloads OF pas
sengers that has ever left Portland was
that which departed Thursday night for
San Francisco. 1t consisted of fifteen
tourist cars and five standard sleepers,
carrying 314 second-class and 114 first
class passengers. This great exodus from
Portland is said to be due to the desire to
take advantage OF the existing low rates,
which are to be advanced on the 29th inst.
to 81 so for second, class and SIS for first
class passage.
Last nights Portland-bound train was
also of unusual proportions, consisting OF
fifteen tourist and four standard sleepers.
About $50 people departed on it, including
quite number of Stanford students, who
went home to spend the holidays. The in
creased rates go into effect on trains leav-
ing San Francisco on the Both. There will
therefore be but one more train from San
Francisco and one from Portland Oh which
the $5 and $40 rates will apply. 1t is ex-
pected that the last cheap trains will break
the record for the number of passengers
carried on this route.
In order to encourage the attendance of
City people at the Alameda County Indus
trial Exposition now being held in Oak.
land, the Southern Pacific Company has
agreed to put on sale tickets iii its offices
here at the rate of 35 cents each, which
price will include transportation and ad-
mission to the EXPOSITION, which has proved
such great success that it will be contin-
ued all of next week and possibly for two
weeks.

CAPTURED By A WOMAN,
A Burglar Cleverly Run to Earth
in a Waterfront Lodg.
ing House.
He Was Caught Ransacking Rooms in
the Wellington House on
Jackson Street.

Mrs. Mary Lickel, owner of the Yelling
ton Lodging-house on the corner of Jack
son and Drumm streets, had an exciting
encounter with burglar yesterday, and
in consequence George Johnson is now
occupying one of the cells at the Harbor
Police station. The latter ransacked sew.
eral of the rooms before he was discovered.
When Mrs. Lickel discovered him she shut
the door, and while hanging desperately
on to the knob she yelled vigorously for
the police. When Officer George Hall
showed up the burglar surrendered.
Mrs. Lickel is widow, and on several
occasions her house has been burgIarized.
The last time the place was visited all her
little sons best clothes were stolen. This
made the mother angry, and when she saw
Johnson prowling about the place yester-
day she suspected him. After seeing him
take some things out of one of the lodger's
rooms and enter another she ran up and
closed the door.
Then the fight began. johnson strove to
to keep it closed and yelled for help. Find
ing she could not keep him q prisoner,
Mrs. Lickel let go her hold and ran for the
only means of exit with the thief at her
heels. She reached the front door on
Jackson street first, and slamming it after
her began to yell 'Thief! murder! rob-
bersl'' N. O'Neill, a ieweler, who lives
next door, came to her assistance, and
Charles Foster, boarder, who had been
aroused by the noise, descended upon
Johnson from the rear. 1t was then that
Officer Hall, who was on his way to his
lunch, was notified, and he at once placed
the man under arrest on charge OF bur-
glary. At the police station Johnson said
he had been employed on the Valley Rail-
road and that he had got into the house by
mistake.

TROUT OR SALMON?
A Question in Piscatology LearnedIy

A Question in Piscato1ogy LearnedIy
Discussed in Judge Lows Court.
In Judge Lows courtroom vest erday
afternoon the case of the People vs.. a.
Paladini, attracted a considerable number
of fshpackers and dealers, all of whom
manifested the most lively interest in the
proceedings The defendant is accused of
having in his possession number of fish
said to be steelhead trout, denizen of the
watery world which the State Legislature
endeavors to protect by law from molesta-
ton during its spawning and breeding sea-
son.
1t had been supposed that the case would
be tried before jury, but Attorney I. D..
Riordan, representing the defendant
waived that privilege. Several witnesses
were examined before it became clear what
the ouestioners desired to have made
plain. 1t at length developed that Mr..
.Riordan intended proving that the fish on
eYhibitiou were not steelhead trout, but
eteelbead salmon.
Prosecuting Attorney Madden seemed to
consider the distinction case OF tweedle-
dun and tweedledee. and inquired whether
Steefhead trout if not cut off IN early
youth would not develop into steelhead
salmon.
]. p. Babcock, chief deputy fish COM
missioner, testified that he had bought the
malodorous fish from Paladini's fish
stand. but when pressed to give his ac-
ouisition name showed rather misty
COMPREHENSION OF the mysteries OF plsca-
.torial nomenclature.
In order to bring some light to bear on
the subject Professor w. w. Thoburn OF
Stanford University was called to the
stand. He discoursed at length upon
steefheads and other members OF the hnny
tribe, but the scholastic language seemed
only to render the darkness. yet more
plainly felt Still he gave it as his opinion
that the fish exhibited was true, IN
doubted steelhead, but whether trout or
salmon he did not clearly state.
Then Secretary Booth of the sacra-
mento River Packing Company tried his
hand at calculating the point at issue,
and after many inquisitorial questionings
on the part of Messrs. Madden and hior-
dan, managed to place on record his SOL
emnly sworn conviction that the. specl-
men of defunet fishy mortality was In very
deed and truth a steelhead salmon.
Mr.. Riordan explained that the law was
framed for the protection OF steelneao
trout, and not steelhead salmon, the last
named creature not being SO much as
mentioned in the statute.

Contract With Jesus Borboa Ac-
cord ed That Privilege.

Jesus Borboa arrived from Mazatlan,
Mexico, per steamer Willamette on the
18th inst. With his wife and five children
ne had enjoyed cabin passage. In the
steerage was young woman named Mer-
ced Flores and her l2-year-old son, Felice
ochon, and there was also l4year-old
girl named Maria Casteneda, who Borboa
SAID was his adopted daughter.
Deputy immigration Commissioner De
Las Casas reported to Commissioner Strad-
ley that the woman and girl were brought
here under contract by Borboa to work in

City, and Mr.. Stradley refused to allow
them to land until the board of special
inquiry ascertained whether there was
any violation of the contract-labor law or
not.
The board made an investigation and
listened to several conflicting statements.
1hat OF the woman was that she had been
promised $50 per month to go to work in
Borboa's hotel when he got it started,
and the girl said he had agreed to pay for
her services $8. He had paid their pas
sage. Borboa's statement was that the
woman was domestic employed by him
IN his hotel IN Maza tlan, is still in his en-
ploy, and that the girl had been turned
over to him by her mother for adoption.
Inc Woman's husband is still in Mazatlan
and the girls father lives in Rozario, Mex.
However, Messrs. Presbury, Charming
Hills and Sprague of the board of special
inquiry decided that Merced Flores and
M aria Casteneda were Jesus Borboa's per-
sonal servants, and on that the board con-
cluded they were entitled to land, but Mr..
Stradley is not quite satisfied and may
take some action to have this decision re-
yersed.

Antitoxine In Boston city Hospital.

The use of antitoxine in the treatment
of diphtheriA at the City hospital has re-
duced the mortality by about one-half.
According to a report received by Dr. Dur
gin of the board of health the treatment Of
the last 113 completed cases which have
occurred there has resulted as follows;
"Twenty- three deaths. 90 recoveries. OF
those deaths Is entered the hospital with
severe sepsis, which would leave but 8
deaths out of 90 cases that could reason
ably have been expected to be cured, which
gives majority in the whole 113 cases Of
% per cent, whereas the mortality at the
hospital has ordinarily been over 30 per
cent"
DR.. DurgiD states that with the accu-
mutation of data Of which the above is a
part, showing the remarkable success of
this treatment, there can be but one YER
dict on the part of the medical profession,
and that he himself Is strong believer in
the use of antitoxine in diphtheria and
also in Its immunizing influence on the
human subject. Boston Transcript.
