- ; Trial Ironr Brawn Out.
It was stated this "morning by the

er. Accordingly Judge Bean cusea au
ttirors residing outside of Multnomah
county for the remainder of the term,
while those residing Inside the limits

ther notice from the court.
In the selection of the jury the de
fense -used, six of Its 10 peremptory
challenges while the government used
one of the three allowed by the statute.
One man, diaries I Mastic, a leather
merchant' of Portland,, was challenged
for cause. He said that he had often
discussed the various bank cases while
nt the Commercial club at lunch with
other business men of the city and had
formed a very decided opinion regarding
the Scriber case. He said that the men
at luncheon went .into? the current
events, and discussed them up one side
and down the Other, and that they had
debated the cases of W, Cooper Morris,
V, H. Moore, J. Thorburn Ross and "all
(he rest" The court excused him.
Xordstrom Excused.
District 'Attorney McCourt used his
peremptory challenge on Andrew Nord
strom, of Vesper, Clatsop county. Nord
strom said he bad no knowledge of the
f. ase, that he had no bias towards bank
ers, that he had never got rich enough
"to own bank stock. He was excused,
(however, by i the prosecution. .?

rection of Professor George Ellery Hale.
remarkable series of ' photographs of
Halley'a comet has been secured af'the
Cainegle 'observatory on Mount Wilson
during the past hours., " 7 i:'
According to Professor Hale, director of
the observatory, these will b supple

the comet Is within hailing distant of
the earth. ' "' v-.'- v
Hale now estimates the. comets tail
to -be ; 20,000.600 miles In length. He
declares; the: earth will pass through
this on . the generally 'accepted date,

onvrt will make its closest approach

.: In view of the fact -that the light
of stars beyond the comet's tail Is not
dimmed by tha-vaporous veil between
them and the earth,, it Is asserted that
it Is folly to .prenums that the; gases
which compose the tall are dense enough
to penetrate our atmosphere. " The fear
that . the. deadly cyanogen gas will en
velop the earth; be said, Is baseless. -

Following the selection' of the Jury
this morning District Attorney McCourt
made his opening statement to the Jury,
outlining the contentions of the govern
meat.' He said that land deals and other
transactions entered Into -by Scriber had
weakened the bank and that in order to
strengthen it up and make It pass the
requirements of the "national bank In
spector Scriber had resorted to a various
number of schemes to make a showing.
Finally, however,- the bank had been
forced to close its doors, after, which
Claud Oatchi national bank examiner for
Oregon, had taken charge of the bank.

Gateh had found, MoCourt said, that,
according to the records of the bank,
there should be $38,000 In cash on hand
In the vaults of tho Institution. On ex
amination., however, 1t was discovered
tht there were but $14,000 on hand.'
It was also discovered that a total
of, $70,000 worth -f notes had been
forged by ficrlber end put in the bank
to ' bolster : up the - assets so that - the
bank examiner would not discover Its
Insolvency. :", ... , r-t- x
- It was also discovered that Bcrlber
had Issued $11,000 In certificates -of de
posit, which, had not been put -on record
in the bank, and which certificates were
discovered In his private desk by Catch
when he took charge of the bank. Scrib
er had not reported these certificates
to the bank examiner as required to do
by the national banking laws. ; :

so - Identical that. 1 am much puzsled

the people along the Columbia and In
Portland . should at least . prepare for
very mgn water.-
Weather Forecaster Beals says that
the snow at the headwaters of the' Co
lumbia nesr Yellowstone National Park
has : been .unusually ; heavy this yesr.
The Snake river, tributary of . the
Columbia, also has -its ' headwaters ; in
the same vicinity. . If the snow melts
raoidlv it .fUla both streams full to
overflowing and the floods In the lower
valley are an " IrometMate consequence.
The forecaster is Inclined somewhat to
the opinion that since a great deal of
water has already been drained off. a
flood of magnitude may not occur -unless
rihe wpattoer should become 'un
usually warm. ' "

It Is freely Indulged In, and In tbe heart
