To Establish a Fish Hatchery.

Messrs. B. w. Everman aud S. E.
Meek, U. s. fish commissioners from
Washington, D. c., arrived from below
yesterday, and the following day went
to Shearer's bridge to examine the De-
schutes at that point with the view of
establishing salmon hatchery. The
object of the department at present is
to establish temporary hatchery
at some point where salmon can be
caught, and where the eggs can be de-
posted until the fish are large enough
to be taken to the Clackamas hatchery
for further propagation. This is only
for the present season, as it is the pur-
pose of the government to establish at
least two permanent hatcheries in
Eastern Oregon next year. While
hero Messrs. Everman and Meek will
examine the different available locali-
ties for hatcheries, and will probably
be able to make permanent selections.

Another Suicide at Prinevllle.

On Friday evening of last week Jas.
II. Montgomery, a photographer in
Prineville, suicided by cutting his
throat from ear to ear. Montgomery
had been arrested on charge of at
tempting to criminally assault young
lady of that city, and on the way to the
justice Office in charge of the constable
requested to be permitted to go into a
water closet. The request was granted,
the constable and several others stand
ing just outside. Presently they saw
blood streaming out from under the
door, and on entering the room, found
Montgomery dying. He had severed
both juglar veins and the wind pipe
with pocket knife. Years ago Mont
gomery was one of the best artists in
the country, but domestic trouble
drove him to drink, and for the past
ten or twelve years he has been per-

The weapon has all the appearance OF
barbarous origin. The blade is blunt
and of crude workmanship, surmounted
with heavy brass hilt. Some untrans-
latable figures and characters are cut
into the steel. Mr.. Warnock's great
grandfather was veteran sea captain
in the employ of the British East India
Company when there was no law of
nations on the high seas and free
hooters wero common, and each ship
had to provide for its own protection.

A Piratical Sword.

B. Warnock, of the Bohemia Iron
works, has in his possession relic of
the days of buccaneering on the high
seas, says the Cottage Grove Moderator.
The relic is a sword taken from Malay
pirates more than 100 years ago, by
Mr.. Warnock's great-rrandfather,
Captain William Balyntine, a captain
of an East India Company's ship. The
history of the sword is that the ship
became becalmed in the AsiaJic archi-
pelago and was attacked by hordes of
natives, and in the encounter this
sword was taken from the pirates.

DISASTROUS FIRE AT purUK.
Johnston Bros Mercantile Establishment
Burned to the Ground.

oohhston BIOS. mercantile establishment
Burned to the Ground.
ELast Saturday morning Johnston
Bros. large store building, located in
the central part of Dufur, was discov-
cred to be on fire, and the flames had
gained such headway when the alarm
was given, that it was useless to at.
tempt to either save the building or
get any.of the goods out, hence the cit
izens devoted themselves to saving adj
jacent buildings. This was by no
means an easy task, for the heat from
the burning store was intense and it
required almost superhuman efforts to
prevent other buildings from catching.
Conditions were favorable, however,
for battling with the destroying ele-
ment. there being no breeze stirring
at the time, and willing hands aided
with force pumps and limited supply
OF water from reservoir, succeeded in
confining the flames to the store.
George Johnston, one of the mem
bers of the firm, was in the city Sat-
urday afternoon and said he had no idea
how the fire originated, since there
had been no fire in the building for
months, hence he concludes it must
have been of incendiary origin, though
he is at loss to discovera a motive that
would actuate anyone to burn the es-
tablishmen,.
Johnston Bros. for years have been
the leading merchants of Dufur and
have carried large stock of general
merchandise. They are energetic,
progressive bus ness men, hence their
loss will be felt by all the people of
Dufur and vicinity. Their building
and stock was valued at from S11, COO
to 1900, on which they carried $500
insurance. Nothing whatever except
the fireproof safe was saved, and it
was badly warped by heat, though on
being opened, it was found that their
books and accounts were not materi-
ally damaged.
They will probably resume business
in building across the street from
their old location as soon as they can
get stock from below.

Among the many rare plants in Mrs.
Stubling & Sons green house is
choice collection of cacti, some OF
which are indeed most uncommon
plants. A few Of them are quite pro-
fuse boomers, while others bloom at
intervals of six or seven years. One of
the latter class, a large night-bloom-
ing cereus, produced bloom last
night that was most beautiful. 1t was
urn shape, about eight inches long, the
petals of pure white outside OF
which were pale green leaves, and
the pistil in the center was surrounded
with pale yellow hair like tendons.
The plant will produce another flower
about next Wednesday night.
