Yesler's Hall was crowded yesterday
afternoon and evening by an apprecia-
tive assemblage of our guests and peo-
pie Of this city, who were desirous of
viewing the articles which are on ex-
hibition. Owing to the hurried condi-
ton Of matters during the past few days
tho list Of exhibits is small though
very oommendable, and sufficient to
convince even the most preiudiced that
We are not far in the rear in productive

Another striking illustration Of the

An examination of the Official records
shows that 1887 property holders (per-

The city assessment was taken this
year, last year and the year before BY
the one ofbcial, Mr.. Prank Seidel. and
the work vas done each year in about
the same manner. His returns for the
three years were a. above indicated.
IL is to be observed, however that tho
assessment only includes property
within the corporate limits, and does
not embrace much more than half the
actually occupied area of the city in
point OF space. The city amounts to
more than half the county both in
wealth and population, and is is evident,
therefore, that both assessments were
taken this year upon similar bases of
values. the whole county being appraised

OUR YOUNG FOLKS.
The wise Ca, and the Foolish One.


In the coy kitchen the wise cat sat,
And she was glossy and sleek and fat.
Under the table she spied a can,
And swift to the shining vessel she ran,
Which some fish for the evening meal had held
About its mouth she carefully smelled,
Then put in her paw and swept 1t round
Till many sweet morsels OF food she found.
So you see by her wisdom the wise cat Won
A nice little lunch, and no harm had been done.
That goes without saying but how shall tell
OF what sad fate to the foolish one fell?
This cat to a deep hollow CHANGING to stray,
Where the from the house had been thrown
away,
Vas starving for supper and thought some to win
From the few flakes Of fish that she saw within.
So she hurriedly thrust in her whole silly head;
But il proved prison complete and dread,
And though here anu there she franticaly bounded,
The closer the terrible cap was pounded
Exhausted at last. she was forced to lie
Quite still by the barn till man happened by,
Who pity ing her, by dexterity
Succeeded 10 setting the poor creature free.
Now pussy, the wise, who had followed the man,
Seemed slyly to smile as this deed she did scan,
A much as to say, what an ignorant cat
managed the matter much better than that"
But | think had she been hungry and cold,
She, to-, nigh: have grown as reckless and bold.
