Several days ngOj he hired a house there, where ho intends to have his family reside. Complaint b made by several par lies ot the streets being obstructed by wood piles and similar aggregations. SeK interest would seem to suggest to these having such impediments in front of their places of business, that they be removed as soon as practic able, that the appearance of the street be improved and traffic unobstructed.

On the southwest corner of Fifth and Genevieve streets there is a large pond of stagnant water, which neither adds to the attractiveness ot tbe scene nor to the healthfulncss of the sur rounding locality, it would, be a blessing to the community if it could be removed, which couli easily be done by putting iu a short amount of drain tile. The scow bay foundry is bo nearly completed that work has commenced nt the business, and for several days they have been molding. To-day they intend to fire up the furnace and have their first casting. For several days the old scrap tin from the former loca tion of the Columbia foundry has been in progress of removal to the new foundry, and this will be iho prin cipal metal cast, though old iron will also be used. The little frame building on Third street next to Hanson's jewelry store, formerly occupied by J. B. Gill, was -removed" yesterday.

Opinions of Jadgo CapIes, Oao of the Attorneys. In an interview last eveninc with Judge Caples, one of the attorneys for me ueiense in tno murder trial at uys terville, ho gave a representative of The Astoiuan his views of tho case based upon an intimate knowledge from his services therein and attend ance during both trials, from which tho following is given as the judge's opinien: The almost universal demand of the people over there was for a conviction of all four of the accused, and the juries hardly dared do otherwise than find each of the two men guilty as charged. In the jury on the first case were several men who did not believe that on the evidence presented they could find John Edwards guilty of murder, but the vehement manner and almost threatening attitude of the balance of the jurors at last made .them reluctantly agree upon convic tion. In the case of John B. Bose, it was believed that when the jury retired for deliberation they stood six to six, or possibly seven for conviction and five for acquittal Here there was a similar experience to the former jury, for those in favor of a conviction were obstinate and fairly cowed tho remainder into coinciding with them in a verdict of guilty in the first degree. According to Judge Caples opinion, motions for new trials were presented yesterday, but he felt sure they would be denied. As soon as the evidence taken by the stenographer can be re duced to writing, a bill of exceptions will be filed, and the case appealed to tho supreme court He does not be lieve the higher tribunal will sustain tho findings, as ho feels confident that the evidence does not prove tho commission of tho crime upon 'Edwards and Bose. It is clear that George Bose had a hand in the murder, for he pointed out where the bodies were buried, but the sentiment of the people in .that vi cinity, seemed to demand the convic tion of all of the accused, and acting upon the knowledge of the existence of this belief, it is evident that the ju ries rendered the verdicts rather than upon the fact that the evidence before them was conclusive of guilt This is Judge Caple's opinion. He also believes that in a few months the sentiment of the people in that vicinity will have undergone quite a change, as they "will not feel so sure of the guilt of all the accused, but at present they are almost a unit in tho belief that all are guilty. Firemen's Election. Yesterday, tho members of tho fire department held an.electiou for chief engineer and assistants. Tho ballot ing took place at No. 2's house, the polls being open from 9 a. m. to 4 r. m. Total number of votes cast, 67; necessary for a choice, 34. For chief engineer, Charles H Stockton, the present incumbent, was the only nom inee and received 67 votes. For as sistant engineer there were three can didates, Ed. Hallock, Frank Green and Frank Suprenant, with two to be elected. The ballot stood Hallock 38, Green 35, Suprenant 28. Hallock will be first assistant and Green second assistant T. B. Loughery, George Goodell and E. G. Stoner were judges of elec tion, and Frank Stewart clerk. The total assessed valuation of Pa cific county in 1889, was $890,000. This year, says the Journal, it reaches the extraordinary figure of Sl,892f000, or an increase of one million and two thousand dollars. Of course quite a large part of this increase is duo to the improvement of real es tate throughout the whole county, but by far the largest part of it k undoubt edly caused by the sudden rise in val ue of land contiguous to South Bend, from S5 an acre a year ago, to $500 and even $1,000 an acre now.

There has been an entire" absence of rainfall throughout tho state. The temperature has been lightly lower than usual at this season, ranging from 45 to 90 degrees. The mornings have been generally cloudy or partly cloudy, the afternoons cloudless and fresh north winds prevailed. cbops. The weather conditions have been favorable to harvesting operations which continue. The fall wheat is nearly all cut, and considerable of it haslbeen threshed. The late spring sown wheat is almost ripe and prom kes a much larger yield than was ex pected. For the fall wheat it is simply magnificent . The berry is large, plump and dry, and has ex ceeded all expectations. The yield bids fair to the largest ever harvested. Columbia county reports say that the crop prospects are unprecedented in the annak of the county. The musk melon crop of "Washington county will not be as largo as last year. Yamhill county sends in reports of a fine yield. Tillamook county reports hay, barley and oat crop good. Polk county reports yields of 45 bushels per acre of No. 1 quality of Avbeat Marion county has more than au average wheat crop, and it k freer from foreign matter than for mauy years. Benton, Linn and other valley counties report fine yields, some as high as 42 bushek per acre. At Albany some wheat has been sold for 64 cents, and a Email quantity of extra choice for 69 cents. In Douglas and other counties of southern Oregon tho wheat and other crops aro turning out welL At Boseburg samples of club wheat showed from 100 to 105 grains to the head, and 75 bushels per acre k expected. "Wasco, Sherman, Gilliam and Morrow counties have more than average yields, but in these counties the berry k not so large and plump, as a rule, as in others. Uma tilla and Union counties still claim to have one of the largest crops ever gathered, and the threshing reports appear to justify the claim. In Wal lowa, Baker and counties to the south the crops aro fine; yields more than average. Barley yields of 60 bushek per acre are reported from Crook county, and 45 bushek of oats per acre k reported from Klamath county. The hay harvest through the stock country was good, and there k more than enough hay for any demands. Tbe second hay crop k being cut in some sections. Hops and fruit con tinue promising welt B. S. Pagtje, Observer. Ilia Third and Last Ascension. Arthur Cosgrove, who made the bal loon ascension and parachute jump in thk city on Sunday, the 3d instant was killed on Sunday last in attempt ing hk third ascension and jump. It was at Albina and he went up quite Ihigh, then cut loose, but there was so mucu wina tnut me parucuuie Kept blowing about and descended very slowly. Cosgrove had neglected to use wnst straps, and evidently became tired holding on so long, for ho was seen to change hands occasionally and hold by only ono at a time. "When about 150 feet from the ground, at the corner of Ninth and J streets, just op posite the i?irst Presbyterian church in East Portland, ho let go. Quickly ho shot to the ground, striking in the middle of the street gasped once only, and life was ex tinct Tho right arm was mangled, the bones protruding from the flesh, but tho expression of the face was nat ural. Cosgrove was 28 years of ago and leaves a wife and two children. Hk wife has made two or three ascensions and parachute jumps, ono or two of which were with Bedmond, the other asronaut who was killed in "Washing ton soon after hk ascension in thk city. Mrs. Cosgrove has an intense desire for fame as an aeronaut, but the sad death of her husband may serve as a warning, and check her desire for any more attempts to navigate the air. PERSONAL MENTION.

Tbe five bad boys who went to the Seaside last Sunday, and made things unpleasant for everyone in their im mediate vicinity, were brought be fore Justice Cleveland yesterday, to receive their respective sentences. O. Showan and D. Lavell were each fined S20. Al. Thrall, Henry "Wieman and Pete "Wieman were fined $25 each. Pete "Wieman exhibited in court some of the bravado which characterized hk performances on Sunday, for which Justice Cleveland fined him $25 or ten days in jail, for contempt of court, being the full ben efit of the law, and turned them over to Sheriff Smid t The sheriff in order to mako his prisoners useful rather than ornamental ordered them to per form sundry allotments of manual labor which they refused to do. They were then placed in the dark cell and left to reflect upon the error of their ways. It k believed that a season of confinement in their present quarters and an abstemious diet of plain food, bread and water, for instance, without any exciting condiments or beverages may mane tno obstinate onenders more tractable.

If any enterprise deserves success it k that of the West Shore. To pub lkh such an elegant high class illus trated weekly on the Pacific coast must take a greater supply ot brains, hard work and pereeverence than would bo required in the more densely populated portions of the countrj'. West SJiore will celebrate its first anniversary as a weekly by enlarging its page to admit of better artistic effects. Thk enlargement will be made August 16, and the paper, printed in five colors, will be the peer of any colored illustrated journal in the world. A new dopartment will then be added for boys and girls, con ducted by Emily A Kellogg, a lady well known as a writer for juvenile publications. Ella Higginson, editor of tho woman's department, has ac quired a national reputation as a poet and writer, and her work in West Shore k her best The origiual humorous department k contributed to by the brightest wits of the countrj'- Its independent and pithy edi toriak are giving it an enviable rep utation in newspaper circles every where. Tbe Pacific coast has reason to be proud of West SJiore, and it should be found in every house and place of business. Where Traveling Is Not Pleasant.

Reference to Three Coast States. "Washikgtox, Aug. 7. The census office ha3 issued a bulletin showing the indebtedness of the various states in the Union, both in 18S0 and 1S90. The total indebtedness ot all the states on June 1st last k placed at 19-1,800,371.88, being a reduction of over S58,000,000 during tho decade. Massachusetts shows tho largest bonded indebtedness, $23,251,2S7.85, whilo Hlinok shows the smallest, $23,100. The figures for the Pacific coast states are as follews: Califor nia's bonded indebtedness has been re duced from $713,000 to S339.500 dur ing the decade, and the floating debt has been reduced from $2,690,000 to S2,364,000. Tbe cash and funds on hand have increased from $4,754, 250.55 to $5,526,895.83; thej excess of assets over tne debt nas increased, from $1,351,250.55 to S2.823.395.33. Nevada's bonded debt has increased from $336,400 to S562,000. There k no floating debt The cash and funds on hand have increased from $845, 210.28 to S1,441,940.3S.

The excess of assets over the debt on June 1st last wa3 Sl,799,720.22. Washington No figures are given, probably because of its only recently becoming a state and k expected not to be in debt Charging for Knowing How. Says the Furniture Gazette: "I paid a bill tho other day," said a large manufacturer to me, "without a mur mur, simply because of the way it was worded. My engineer found that hk hot water pipe would not work, and after puttering at it for an hour, sent for a machinist He bothered with it half a day and concluded it must come apart I was much annoyed, for that meant the stoppage of my factory for a long time. Before I gave the order some one suggested that a neighbor ing engineer bo sent for, as he was a sort of genius in the matter ot machinery. Ho came, and after studying the pump awhile, he took a hammer and gavo threa sharp raps over the valve. 'I reckon she'll go now,' he quietly said, and putting on steam 'she' did go. The next day I received a bill from him for $25.50. The bill read thk way: 'Messrs. Blank & Cj., Dr., to John Smith. For fixing pump, 50 cents. For knowing how, $25.' Had he charged me $25.50 for fixing the pump, I should have considered it ex orbitant But 50 cents was reason able, and I recognized the vjiluo of knowledge, so I paid and said noth ing." Tiiat man, says tuo liauway Review, evidently knew as much about making bills as he did about fixing pumps. New DLsovcrics at Pompeii. At Pompeii some mural paintings of more than ordinary interest have re cently been disclosed, and a remark able discovery has been made of a honso five stories high. Tho upper floor k profusely decorated, and the principal hall displays on one wall tho myth of Bellerophou, a undo figure who, holding with one hand the bridle .of his horse, k in the act of receiving the letter and orders of Icing Proetus, who is seated on a throne before him. The lower part of tho houso was used as a bathing cslablkhment SCROFULA Is that impurity of the blood wliich pro duces unsightly lumps or swellings on tho glands of the neck; causes painful running scies on the arms, legs, or feet; developes ulcers in llic'cycs, ears, or nose, oiten caus ing blindness or deafness; is the origin of pimples, cancerous growths, or the many other manifestations usually ascribed to "humors;" and fastening upon the lungs, causes consumption, and death. Being the most ancient, it is tho most general of all diseases cr affections, for very few persons are entirely free from it. How Can It Be URED Ey taking Ilood's Sarsaparilla, which, by the remarkable cures it has accomplished, often when other medicines have failed, lias proven itself to be a potent and pecul iar medicine for this disease. Some of these cures aro really wonderful. If you suffer from scrofula or impure blood, be sure to try -Hood's' Sarsaparilla. "Every spring my wife and children Jiave beeu troubled with scrofula, sores break ing out on Uiem In various places. My littlo boy, thrco years old, has been a terrible Mifferer. Last spring he was ono mas3 of sores from head to feet. I was advised to use Ilood's Sarsaparilla, and wo have all taken It. The result Is that all have Lcen cured of the scrofula, my little boy being entirely free from sores, and all four of my children look bright and healthy." W. B. ATnnnTOK. Passaic City, N. J.
