The fine wa paid. This sum of money was evidently a considerable sum for Green, who is a poor man; but on the other band he apparently deliberately strove to break the law and knew of the penalty that would be imposed if he were captured.

Both Mr. Knobloch and M. Sutton are to be congratulated in passing the exami nation, which was a very stiff one, and both men felt that they were not as well prepared as they should have been inasmuch as they had not been given the proper books from which to make their studies. Yet despite this they passed brilliant examina tions, . Has Resigned Assistant Secretary James T. Wal lace, of the Astoria Chamber of Commerce, yesterday filed his resig nation as such officer, at the meeting of the promotion committee of the Chamber, to take effect on the first of, October next; and the same was regretfully accepted by the members. Mr. Walace is too well known to the Astoria public to need any special comment at the hands of the Astor ian, however kindly it might be, for he has been almost constantly in touch with it for the past ten years, in his A. & C. Railway connections and with the Chamber; and the sole fact that he has made friends always and never lost them, is of itself suf ficient comment, and will be general ly understood and endorsed. It has not developed as yet just what new business engagements Mr. Wallace has entered into. : Precipitating The Muddle " There were four , patrol ; launches out all last night under the direction ALEX TAGG Ice Cream 25c qt.

Scttem, of the Oregon fisheries department, with plenty of deputies on board to exe cute the law a it Is promulgated from this side of the Columbia river, and which none of the Washington fishermen are very much disposed to recognize, and which has, even on thi idc, those who hold that the new restrictions are not effective or binding, among the latter being the parties at interest in the big Co-op. cannery here. The law lately passed by Oregon regulating the fishing on the Columbia has been duly posted along with ample warnings from the office of Master Fish Warden If, C. McAllister at Portland; and Mr. Sct tem and his associates have explicit orders from headquarters, and are willing and able to their full duty in the premise; though the "matter will have to take the full course of the law as it shall be expounded in the court, before any strict observance is awarded it. The situation is bound to be full of interest to thousands in this section of both states and the issue will be awaited eagerly. The Thief Captured A man who gives his name as C. H. Spaulding wa arrested by Patrolman Dubold on the charge of being the man who entered the home of Mr. and Mrs. Fred Beck, at Sixth and Lexington, and stole a diamond ring and various other articles of jewelry, and a small sum of money! Spauld ing, who says he has been a soldier in the regular army, was found in the Chinook bar on Bond street and when searched most of the stolen articles were found in his possession. A war rant was then sworn out against him and he was turned over to the coun ty authorities. His hearing will come up today before Justice Goodman. Sapulding is said to have admitted that he took the articles; saying that he was passing the place and, seeing the door and windows- .wide open, simply walked in and searched thq dresser in th front room. He is also said to have offered the police officer who arrested him $25 if he were let go, and when turned over to Con stable Jack' Sayer he raised this "ante" to $1000, but he might have as well have offered much more, as he has no money, apparently. Refer ring to his troubles Spaulding is said to have remarked, "This is what a fellow gets for gambling," meaning that he had wasted his substance in that manner and then had turned to theft. Hartman Gives Bond Fred Hartman, the Svenson farmer who was arrested on a charge of having fired a shot at the young son of John A. Ekstrom,. one his neigh bors, appeared before Justice Good man yesterday for his preliminary hearing. He was represented by At torney John H. Smith. Howard M. Brownell, the assistant district attor ney, was out of the city yesterday, having been called away on urgen business, and Justice Goodman, after learning some of the facts in the matter, settled the case by placing Hartman under bonds to keep the peace. It seems that Ekstrom has sold his place and is soon to leave the lo cality and hence the justice apparent ly believed that the troubles between Franli L Sm "FIGHTING THE BEEF TRUST" 12th Street, Between Bond and Commercial 253 Taylor Street (Uniontown) What you can buy for 15c Per Pound At Smith's Markets.

At a meeting of the police commis sioners last night it was decided not to endeavor to elect a chief of the the men would thus come to air end. Hartman is said to have admitted that he fired a shot from a rifle in the direction of young Ekstrom, but he declared that he fired, high over his head and merely for the purpose of frightening him. The boy is going to remain in the neighborhood for a short time and he was placed on honor not to plague or other interfere with Hartman in any way. It looked like a quarrel between, neighbors with the preponderance of fault lying on one side or the other according to the individual point of view. . . . itfe Shoulder Pork Chops Fresh Side Pork Corned Side Pork Dry Salt Pork Fresh Leaf Lard Legs of Veal Shoulder Roast Veal Shoulder Veal Cutlets iliiLia What you can buy at Smith's Markets for 10c Per Pound Rump Roast Beef, center cuts Prime Rib Roast Beef Round Roast Beef Round Steak Hamburg Steak Beef Tongues, rough trimmed Shoulder of Mutton Frontquarter of Mutton .

Patrolman Oberg was ' made the acting chief, and until a chief is elect ed by the commission he will have full powers of the office. It is understood that there was only one formal application for the office filed with the commissioners last night. The reason for the de'ay is not known, and may cause some little surprise among the politicians, who have been figuring that the whole matter has been' all "cut and dried" and who therefor, expected no delay in the appointment Chief Gammal is now out o the position, leaving the force in charge of Acting Oberg. Many will be pleased to learn that Mr. Oberg is given the place at least temporarily and perhaps he may prove a strong candidate for the permanent iob.
