 The proprietor of the Ting Wah laundry on Bank street, near Riverside street, will, perhaps, make no pledges hereafter which he does not intend to fulfill. This morning he employed two boys, Henry Casey and Jeremiah Fruin, to clear the snow from the side walk. He agreed to give each 10 cents. When the boys had finished the dlilcult task they demanded their pay. The Chlnaman gave one of the boys 10 cents, but refused to give the other boy his share of the money. The lat ter did not intend to be buncoed so easily He went out and shoveled the snow onto the sidewalk again. He also blockaded the door and the steps or the laundry with huge pile of snow. The boy had his revenge, but not the money. The Chinaman will nave to shovel off the snow .or pay 20 or 70 cents to have it cleared off the sidewalk. A large crowd of boys col lected about the place while the snow was being placed back on the sidewalk and enjoyed the fun.

POLICE COURT DOlNGS.
Two Torrington Men Made Business for

INo 1ofFlnSJ0u NIGH Aldue DuSlueSS iOl
 the Court To-day.
 Two men from Torrington were be- fore Judge Burpee in the city court to- day. The first was Charles Morehouse, who was charged with carrying con- cealed weapons without a license. Po- liceman Halpin said he responded to q telephone call to arrest the man at house on North Willow street. More house said he came from Torrington q few days ago. There he had been liv- ing in happiness with his wife until last week, when she left and came to this city and got a situation with a family on North Willow street. Yes terday he sent note to his wife telling her he would call to see her in the evening. What. transpired when he called was not disclosed, but it was evident that the woman did not wish to see him. Morehouse said there was "a sad story behind it all" As for the revolver, he said he bought that yes- terday 1t was loaded when he was arrested. It was a thirty-two caliber bulldog pattern. He also carried box of cartridges. On his promise to re turn to Torrington, where he said work awaited him, he was let go. He ap- peared to be a decent fellow
 The other Torrington man was Ber- hard Krivotski, who was charged with receiving stolen goods and violating the junk laws. He was defended by Judge Lowe. Officer Mccarthy stated he ar rested the acused on Stone street the other morning and evidently the fellow tried to get away, for when he saw the officer he whipped up his horse. He had just received quantity of junk. 300 pounds i'll all, which is said to be the property of the Farrel Foun- dry Co and valued at about $30. The accused told a long story of being in business twelve years, but for one of that experience he showed a remarka- ble lack of information about it. He was fined S25 and costs on both counts. He took an appeal.
 The bond of $50 in the case of Julius Gimmerick for defrauding boarding house keeper was called. This consti- tuted the business of the session

LIVE STOCK
Owned in the United States Valued at
 $3,2O0, ,oOO OOo.

Washington, Feb 22.-The census bureau, ill a report on domestic ani- Inals, fowls and bees in the United states, on June 1, 1900, announced that all the domestic animals in the United states have probable value of at least Oo,OOO,000. Of this amount the value of the animals on farms and ranges constitute over 93 per cent, and those not on farms z per cent. The census received no reports on value of animals, but estimates it at $215, 5,192.- 92S. The total value of all domestic animals on farms and ranges was S2.- 2OS, ,767 ,513 in 1890. There was a gain 1n all parts of the country except in the North Atlantic states, where there was decrease of horses, sheep and swine, making total decrease of 3 per cent in value.
 The live stock on farms in the Unit ed States follows:
 Calves, 15,330,333; steers, 15,253, 1S2; bulls, 1,315,566; heifers, 7,1S2,O14 cows kept for milk, 71,139,674; cows and heifers not kept for milk, II ,5SS, ,253; colts, 1,313,476; horses, 16,952, ,664; mules, 3,271, ,697; asses and burros, 95,- cos; sheep 61 1,605S11; swine, 62, 1876, 10S; goats, 1,S71,252
 Since 1890 the number of sheep de- creased everywhere except the west. The increase there was more than suf- ficient to balance the loss elsewhere, and made the number of wool bearing sheep for the nation Il per cent greater chan in 1890.
 The number of horses on farms in- creased except ill the North Atlantic states. The gain over the census of 1890 was 20 per cent if the colts are included with the totals of 1900, and 13 per cent if excluded.
 The mules on farms increased gen erally. The dairy cows on farms and ranges in 1900 numbered 4 per cent more than the milch cows reported in 1890. Under the term milch cows were included ill 1890 more cows than those reported in 1890 as ''cows kept for milk,'' or dairy cows.' The real gain therefore is approximately p per cent.
 Most cattle other than dairy cows increased generally. Swine increased 3 per cent, although there was a slight decrease in the North Atlantic division. Tn the South Atlantic division the value of domestic animals increased II per cent. to S1S4, ,152,273 ill 1900. In the north central division the N,llue in- creased 27 per cent to $1,529, ,306,4S7 In the south central the increase was lO per cent to $59S, ,255,6 ,6S7, and in the western 93 per cent to $361, ,453, ,353.
 Iowa leads all the states in the total value of it's live stock, while Texas ranks second.

Prof. Haroun's Mission.

Prof, F, S. Haroun, head of the busi-
ness department of Philomath College,
arrived home last week from tour OF
several weeks duration ia the interest OF
the college. While away he visited Till
amook county. The trip was made on
his bicycle and while coming across the
mountains from Tillamook he had quite
an exciting ride for something like six
miles through the district where forest
fires were raging. On each side OF the
narrow road the fire ragged uncomforta-
bly, close as the professor rode along and
we will guarantee that he did not fool
away any time in that section.
Professor Haroun states that he met
with splendid success in securing ne"
pupils for Philomath College and ne feels
much encouraged with the outlook FOL
the coming school year. Tuesday, ne
started on another trip with the same
mission. On this occasion he went to
independence and Salem and only in
tended to be absent day or two.
Next Tuesday or Wednesday, enroll
ment of pupils will begin at Philomatf
College. A week from Monday WORK
will begin in earnest at this college. 1
Is said that this school is better equipped
at present than ever b efoTe in its hlstor
and at no time did it yer have 80 brlgh
an outlook.

Prosecuting Attorney Bryson. who prose
cuted the boy in Justice Holgate's court.
The case was called at O'Clock Wednes-
day morning and Judge Holgate imposed
the lightest fine allowed by the statutes,
xI5. The law does not allow China
pheasant shooting before the first OF Oc-
tober and why sportsmen, young and old,
will persist IN ignoring this section and
LAYING themselves liable to fine or inn
prisonlaent issa mystery. The lowest
fine for such an efenss is SIS and costs,
or imprisonment for certain period. or
both fine and imprisonment. The maxi
mum fine is 500, or imprisonment, or
both. So it will be seen that it is liable
to be pretty costly bit of sport to kill a
China pheasant during the close season.
As a warning to. those who might be
inclined to assume the risk of killing a
few birds between now and the 1st OF
next October, we desire to state that in
formation has reached us to the effect
that deputy game warden will be kept
in this section of the country until the
open season for shooting pheasants be-

Left Homeless.

Shortly before six O'Clock Tuesday eve
| ming. the house of Dave Howard caught
fire and was burned to the ground Just
how the fire originated is not known.
The bouse is situated near where the c.
& E. and S. P. railway tracks cross.
| about a mile from the central part of
tow n.
Residents nearby noticed that the
dwelling was on FIRE and rushed to the
assistance OF MIR. and Mrs. Howard Mrs.
J. F. Yates telephoned up town that
there was fire in progress just north OF
the CITY and the fire bell was rung. and.
by the way, it doesn't t ring the best in the
world. Firemen aud citizens gathered at
the engine house, but when 1t was learn.
ed where the fire was. they concluded
not to proceed to the place, as 1t was SO
far out and there being no water supply,
no assistance could be rendered.
During this time those who had reach
ed the scene of the confagration were
doing their utmost to save what they
could from destruction. The greater
part of the household effects were saved
from the flames. In woodshed that
was close to the house several cords OF
stove wood was stored. This wood, as
well as number of cords of 4-foot wood,
was moved by the men, who worked
like demons, but although moved, 1t was
not placed at sufficient distance fro m
n ad
The fence leading to the barn was torn
down and in this way the flames were
kept from reaching that building. The
fire was a most fierce one and spread
with great rapidity. There being no way
of securing water, the only thing to 90
was to save what was portable and per-
nit the flames to run their course.
This is great calamity for Mr.. How
ard and family. He practically lost his
all and was left homeless. 1t is under
stood that there was a small insurance
on the house, but it will not anywhere
near cover the loss. Lumber is high and
carpenters are in demand at good wages,
and, as Mr.. Howard said, can't build
a house with wind" Those who=were at
the fire contributed $11 or $12 on the
spot to assist the family in their dire ne
cessity, and a paper was circulated and
| liberally subscribed to IN the hope OF
helping Mr.. Howard to meet the loss ne
has sustained.
| Mrs. Howard states that the first init
| nation she had of the fire was from a
boy. The latter is said to have thrust
his head through the door and exclaimed,
.Your darned old house is on fire."
Last Sunday the house came near
catching fire. The children had play
house that adjoined the residence, and
in some way they set fire to their minla-
ture mansion and but for the fact that
tub of water was hereby, the house in
all likelihood, would have gone up IN
smoke on this occasion.
