For the fourth time a balloon as cension was attempted again last evening by Areonaut Paul, and like all the other trials resulted In a dis mal failure. It was about 8 o'clock last evening when the balloon wan cut loose from Its moorings In the ball grounds and It rose In the air until the swing up on which sa the balloonist was per haps 50 feet from the ground. Then the balloon began to descend and in n few minutes had returned to the ground again Inside the ball grounds. A large crowd had gathered at the ball grounds to see the ascension, and the people living on the hills were all out watching the sight. Consequently the failure was disappointing. The failure Is attributed to the construc tion of the balloon, as it was appor ently well filled last night, but was unable to hold the air. RIGHT LEG BROKEN.

Boise rH-r Reviews Hie Situation at Home and Abroad. The Boise Statesman reviews the wool market In the following man ner: . 4 It looks as though the price of wool has sought a lower level. Sales made here recently have ben at concessions, though many owners are holding out for better offers. The sale recently he'd at Fhnnlko recorded prices about one cent below the preceding sale and all offers were accepted. The couse of the drop seems to be a shading of prices at the London auc tions, though other Influences have also been at work. It Is claimed the high prices of the early part of the season resulted largely from the fact that old stocks were well cleaned up and manufacturers refused to buy at the prices then established. To what extent the combination among buyers may have been Influ ential in depressing prices Is not ap parent. If they simply foresaw that conditions demanding lower prices would soon develop, they were act ing on the defensive. But If their determination not to buy while quotations In the east called for higher offers arose from some other reason, it is quite probable they were working both in their own In terest and In the Interest of the man ufacturers. It Is possible the wool houses under took to force a reduction before It should become necessary for the mills to stock up. The London sales then came In and, showing small reductions In price, brought about the drop de sired. CAPTAIN BIUIX IN TOWN. Is Captain of Dctevtlves oil the Port- lnml Police Force. Patrick C.

Men's Sleeveless Shirts and ROOSEVELT'S BOSTON JUMPED FROM THE WINDOW. Disastrous Effect of a Disagreeable Dream. While In the throes of a nightmare, and believing himself In a burning building, a man named Lee Jumped from a second story window In the Queen lodging house last night and suffered a dislocated shoulder as a re sult. Lee is a fnrm laborer and has been about Pendleton for some time. He has been rooming at the Queen lodg ing house and went to bed as usual last night. However, the hot night wr.s evidently too much for him, for about midnight he got up believing he was In Snn Francisco during the blR fire and that his only snfety lay In Jumping from his window. Jump he did. It Is 25 or 30 feet from the win dow to the ground where Lee struck. and he came down with such force ns to dlslocnte his shoulder upon which he struck. The shock of his fall caused Lee to awaken, nnd he discovered that though he had been hot enough for a fire, he did the wrong thing in Jump ing from his window. He was picked up immediately and taken to Dr. Mc- Faul's office, where his shoulder was attended by Drs. McFaul and Smith. As he was painfully hurt It was necessary to give the Injured man chloroform before his shoulder could be readjusted and the rperation re quired some time.

HALF A BILLION IN HAY. Total Iroduct of MctidowH Ijist Year Valued nt 1516,000,000. Last year the product of our 39, 000,000 acres of hayfields and mead ows was 80,531,617 tons of hay, hav ing a value to the farmers of $516, 000.000 In round numbers. The average jiold was one nnd one half tons per acre and the average price $S.50 a ton. Comparisons between widely separ ated states can not be fairly made; for Instnnce, the high average of $14 per ton In Rhode Island is not due to the superiority of the hay there, but to the fact that local supply satisfies but a smnll fraction of the market demand: whereas, tho low average price of $1 per ton In South Dakota does not Indicate Inferior hay, but that tho local market Is so fully sup plied that the price falls nearly, If not quite, to the actual cost of pro duction.
