SCORES INDORSE ME FOR GAS Petitions In favor of the granting of the petition of B. S. Kelsay. who Is ask ing for a franchise from the county court for a water system and gas works for the Mount Scott district, are being circulated In the district interested and on tho streetcars inward and outward bound from the city. The circulators sny that they aro gathering signatures by the score. Kelsay's petition Is reposing on file In the office of the county court, and no action will bo taken until It Is called up by Its proponents. Kelsay Is Bald to have large holdings at Eugeno and In Sherman county, and to have the support of other capitalists, giving him ample financial backing, but a bond to Insure the faithful performance of his promises will be one of the first re quirements In his campaign. This his representative suys he Is prepared to give, though no offer of a bond Is made in tlie petition. Kelsny's promise to furnish water from Dents to Forty-eighth street at the same price as fixed by the water board of Portland, and to Install at least 20 fire hydrants free of cost in the business sections of the district, has an attractive sound to thoso who are suffering from a shortage of water, but some are refusing to sign until more is learned concerning the proposition. Some have regaided It as a move In op position to annexation, and others think It Is a possible move to secure rights that would become of great value when tho district Is annexed to the city, pos sibly creating complications at some future time.

"The Kngllsh sparrows, as every one knows,' choose thick foliage trees as their roosting places, depending on the leaves to protect them from the rain. But tiie leaves, no matter how thick. were no protection from those heavy hailstones and the sparrows were killed by the hundreds in the vicinity of Miller avenue and Ilrvilen road. ' In Front of the Fvangelicnl church there are a lot of thick covered maples, which have formed a choice roosting place for the .sparrows this summer. There Ihev caught it thick and heavy end the slaughter of the birds was fear till Monday morning w counted 312 dead sparrows under those trees and no doubt ninny that were killed were swept Into the sewer by the storm water that ran through the streets.
