UP IN A BALLOON.

Today, weather permitting, Prof. Mil
Ter, the celebrated aeronaut, will make
an ascension from the vacant space
above 7th and Commercial streets. He
figures on going up from 5000 to 5000
feet, then taking a jump with a para
chute. Should he alight in the river,
it is probable the first boat that reaches
him will receive a reward. The country
around Astoria is not the Elsiest in
the world for earlal artists to land on
as the land is rugged and covered
with dense forests, and the river is
wide and at times treacherous. The as
cension will be a novelty to a great
many people here, and will no doubt
bring out big gathering.

ton Of that Of the lost collier Kewee-
nav. 1t is painted white and is about
70 feet long by 6 feet wide. This is
the first evidence of the wreck of the

the lost vessel attempted to save them.

would float. If the crew had time tc
cut away the life raft, they must have
lowered some of the steamers boats
In the heavy sea that was undoubtedly
running, however 1t would have been
impossible to keep boat above the
water. The set of the coast currents
would naturally throw wreckage on
shore near Monterey, and there seemf

to the Keweenaw.

in French Scientific Teview, which
should be useful to ships officers and
others. In one Of the barrels Of a

placed fiat and so arranged that by
a mirror swung in the line of sight

taken of distant objects. Thus, if used
at sea, the bearings of known objects

In 1893 when the legislature changed
the law from fees to salary for coun-
ty officers 1T fixed the sum required to
be paid at the time of filing any action

The former trial fee was $12, and the

law which stipulates the fees to be
charged in cases where no amount is
named, such as divorce suits, condem-
nation proceedings, etc., and it is prob
able that Judge Mcbride will examine
the law and set proper fee in each
case. The law is causing great deal
of speculation among the sheriffs
throughout the state, as it specifies
that the fee paid the clerk is in lieu of

holds good, as to sheriffs, then the

quite jublant over their Interpretation
of the law, but just how Sheriff Hare
will decide regarding the fee question
remains to be seen. The law is being
