son were returning from Portland,
having left for the city early in the
morning, the two older boys, James
and William, and sister being left at
home. After dinner, William sat
down at the sitting-room table and did
some writing, while the sister and
James were on the front porch. At
the report of the gun, James was hor-
rifed to find his brother stretched out
on the floor, the blood streaming from
his head and, as he supposed, rapidly
dying.
The coroner's jury returned ver-
dict that the deceased came to his
death from a gnnshot wound, Inflicted
by his own hands, wheather accident
ally or with suicidal intent they were
unable to determine.
The family has been known as one
of the most industrious of the neigh
borhood, and by hard work has accum-
ulated considerable means, beside the
160-acre farm. The father was acci-
dentally killed about 2l years ago. be-
ing kicked by horse. Since the de-
ceased, William, has been gown, he
he has successfully managed the finan-
cial affairs OF the farm.

A San Francisco Man Designs a New
Airship.

Airship.
SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 14.-Dr. G. A.
Smith, is more enthusiastic than ever
over his flying machine since he re-
ceived a telegram Wednesday from
Washington informing him that a pat
ent had been granted on his device for
sailing through the air. a company
was incorporated in this city last Sat
urday to build Smiths airship, navi
eating air vessels and carrying on a
general business in them. I. j. Tru-
man, president of the Columbian bank
and George 7. Garden are among the
stockholders. The attorney for the
company is M. M. Estee.
These well-known men declare that
Smiths machine appears feasible as
mechanical proposition, and that it is
really most ingenious solution of the
difficult problem that have faced the
scientific aeronaut. Smith himself
claims it will lift itself and additional
weight, and more than that. he can so
control its fight as to practically imi-
tate bird on the wing. This means
that the airship can be lifted from the
earth and depressed at the will of the
engineer, who may also steer his ves-
sci hither and thither, describe circles
regardless of the wind, and perform
evolutions like a ship at sea.

RUINoUsLY Low FIGURES.
Oversupply Causes a slump In Prices of
Fruits.

Oversupply Causes a slump In Prices of
Fruita.
NEW YORK, Aug. 7.-Auction sales
of California fruit were unusually
heavy last week and prices realized
ruinously low. There were 81 carloads
disposed of against only IS carloads in
the corresponding week of last year.
Sales were the largest which have been
made in any single week since the fruit
auction system was adopted nine years
ago. Thus far this season there have
been $50 carloads sold, against 423 car
loads up to the corresponding date of
last year.
Low prices were attributed partly 10
over-supply, due largely to intense hot
weather, which ripened the fruit so
rapidly that 1t soon became compare
lively worthless. Many carloads of as
fine fruit as was ever offered were sold
for less than the amount of freight and
commission leaving the losses to be
met by the shippers on the Pacific
slope.
