Portland, June 22.-Fifty- SER
want girls and number of working
men have been victimized out of sums
ranging from 81 to $500 by a con-
Germ known as the Prudential Invest
ment & Security company, according
to Ernest Brand, an attorney in the
district attorneys office. He declares
the company is fraud that has been
equaled in the extent of its operations
only by the Tontine Diamond compa-
ny. whose existence in the northwest
was terminated by criminal actions
begun by state officers two years ago.
Circulars issued by the company
show that it is organized under the
laws of oregon, that it has an office
in Seattle, and that through its in
strumentality the legislature of Cali
fornia passed the law which prohibits
fake" concerns from operating in
that state.
People who receive the circulars
and who do not read the papers in
vested, and Mr.. Brand, who received a
complaint from one of the victims, has
learned after a few hours work that
$1,000 was obtained from servant girls
and laborers in Portland on promises
to double their money in a short time.
More was obtained in Seattle and
still more in San Francisco, the "head-
quarters" of the company.
The agent of the Prudential COM
pany in Portland is F. w. Winn, 295
South Seventeenth street, who told
Mr.. Brand that he himself was an in
vestor in the company, and that if
there was anything fraudulent about
the concern he was as much a victim
as any of it's patrons.
Mr.. Brand says the state treasurer
of California has informed him that
the company has never deposited the
$4,000 as alleged in the circular. He
has learned that it is the successor of
the Empire and Fidelity Trust COM
| panies.

EAGLE KILLS HIS MATE.
Infuriated Because She Would Not
Obey Him.

Obey Him.
Angered because she refused to
shar ehis perch with him Joe, gol-
den eagle in the menagerie in Central
park, the other day killed Amelia a
cage mate. He also attacked her CONF
panions. He was subdued by keepers
and condemned to spend the rest of
his life in a cage with vultures wEirh
have been his enemies for a long
time, says the New York Herald.
Secure in his position as the strong
est bird in the eagle cage, Joe ap Ni"-
emily believed he would have lit e
difficulty in persuading Amelia to
roost on his perch. He paid scarcely
any attention to her until recently,
when he frequently offered her art
of his food. She accepted the food,
but was deaf to the invitation convey
ed in his hoarse screams.
In the course of Joe's courtship a
change in the diet of the eagles was
made. Raw meat had been given to
them and they enjoyed many gifts
from visitors. When fish was added
to the diet Joe, who although large
and powerful had a large amount pt
| good nature, became savage and ag-
| gressive. His admirers noticed his
actions and attributed the change %
the new diet Meat and fish, they
declared, induced combativeness.
When Amelia was drinking from
the fountain the other day Joe Gale
twice to her. She paid no heed, and
uttering loud cries, he swooped down
on her from his perch and attacked
her with bill and claws. She was
dead when her companions interfered
Joe turned upon them and had almost
ended the life of another eagle when
the keepers seized him.
In his new quarters fear of the vul-
lures will make Joe well behaved
bird, his admirers say. The vultures'
cage is separated only by wire from
that of the eagles, and Joe's attempts
when he was in his old home to steal
their food by reaching into their
quarters annoyed them. 1t Is likely,
his admirers say, they will revenge
themselves on him now that he is in
| their power.

BEWARE OF GRAFTERS.
Lewiston Man Paid $75 for Pair {
$3.50 Spectacles on the Trail.

$3.50 SpectacleS on the Trail.
NJ. Bornzac, of Lewiston, Idaho, to-
day complained to District Attorney
Manning that he had been victimized
by opticians who are working in the
Reed Optical Concession company's
booths at the exposition, says the
Oregon Daily Journal. He said he
had been charged SIS for a pair OF
spectacles which DIR. ]. A. Stewart, al
oculist, declared were not worth more
than $3.50. The case has been given
to Deputy Moser. who intends to pros
ecute it under the Oregon statute OF
gross frauds.
Bornzac is 61 years old, and stated
to the district attorney that he was
deceived by S. Nathan, claiming to be
an oculist and physician who made
him believe that he was in danger OF
going totally blind unless he secured
the glasses which Nathan recon-
mended. DIR. Stewart, on being con-
suited by Bornzac, Informed him that
his eyes were not defective, and that
he had been made the victim of a
fraudulent sale.
The Reed optical concession COM
pany is operated under the name OF
the well known optician, Waiter
Reed, who stated today that he woul1
make good all representations by the
men at the exposition grounds, and
that he had already caused the dis
missal of several who had not obeyed
orders and had not dealt honestly
with customers.
Complaints have been frequent
Many people state that they have paid
large sums of money for spectacles
and later learned that they had been
victimized and that their money had
been taken from them under gross
misrepresentation.
