The new steamboat that VIM. Mort.
enson the ship builder has been build.
ing for parties on the Nasel, was
launched from the ways near Badollet
& Co.'S cannery yesterday and taken
to Arndt & Ferchen'S machine shop
to have her machinery put in.
Yesterday morning the new tug
WGLLO,OG attempted to tow the Brit.
ish bark Lady Elizabeth to sea, but
on account of the lack of power the
tug could not move the vessel. The
tide was just commencing to food al
the time and there was no wind. II
looks like the WGIlOo0G Will have to
have more powerful machinery put in
her before she will be much use in
towing loaded ships.

SILENCED THE TALKERs.
A Story Which Put Ordinary Yarns II
the Shade.

When Colonel A. III. Sellers, presi-
dent of the Title Guarantee and Trust
company, hears any one telling story
he imagines is rather tough in point of
truth, he does not at once accuse the
relator of fabricating, but he proceeds
to tell one so much farther from the
truth that the original yarn is lost
sight of and the originator obliged to
hide his head. The Colonel had occa-
sion to exercise his peculiar talent one
day not long ago, when a party were
relating some hunting experiences.
The colonel listened attentiyely and
then said: Those stories call to mind
some duck shooting / did once. 1t
doesn't matter much where, though 1
could name the locality, and will If
any one thinks of doubling my word.
1 did not have my own gun with me,
but / can shoot with most anything,
so that did not matter. [ had been
observing tlocks of ducks flying in a
certain direction for a long time,
and they all seemed to alight in
about the same spot. 1 crept carefully
forward to where there was a large
pond, the main supply Of the slough
L had been watching. When / got a
fair view / was startled at the sight.
The surface of the pond was covered
with ducks. / leveled my gun and
pulled the trigger. Would you be-
lieve it, the gun snapped, but for all
that 1 killed fifteen ducks, and if il
had gone off 1 would have bagged
200. / had another experience out
west once. 1 saw ducks flying the
same as before in in large numbers,
and when 1 reached the spot / saw
they were so thick they fairly trod
upon each other. [ took up a good
position and fired, and to my chagrin
1 evidently did not hit a bird. The
whole mass rose skyward, and il
looked like a great black cloud. Pres
emily, however, l saw something fall
ing. Sure as you live it was ducks.
The mass on the lake was so thick
that those 1 had killed were carried
up, but when in the air the live ones
separated, the dead birds fell through
and / picked up 47." The others in
the party became mum; they told nc
more hunting stories.-Chic1go Her.

Polk county has succeeded in re-
ducing her assessment by about $780,
600 below that of last year, though
the actual valuation is undoubtedly
very much greater, while Clatsop
county's assessment roll as prepared by
assessor Parker, is far above last years
estimate of valuation. There is man.
ifest need of legislation that will cause
the assessment of property in the sew
eral counties of the state to be made
with a uniform ratio to reasonable
value. A state board of equalization
is needed that will put stop to the
efforts of counties, to avoid paying
their Just share of the state taxes.
