R. G. Dun < Co.'s Monthly Report of
 Trade Conditions.

Trade conditions have not improved the last month. The clearinghouse retruns, which guage business pretty accurately, show at most points a decided and significant decline. The dullness usual at this season of the year is increased by the political un- certainty. There is no movemnnt in the field of fresh enterprise and credits are more closely scanned. Wheat is going out little more freely. Cur tailment of products in cotton fabrics continues and a further decline in iron and steel is looked for. Exchange in foreign trade still keeps the balance on the helpful side.
 In this district there is little new to report. The interest of the horticul- turist centers on the summer fruits. The apricot crop has been gathered The shortage in crop kept prices good. The peach crop, also less in volume, is commanding satisfactory prices. The outlook for the grape industry is better than it has been for years. Wine cellars have increased their capa- city on account of increased demand. The shortage of the crop puts the grower in position to dictate and it is estimated at vintage time the pro- duct will realize 30 to 40 dollars per ton.
 The beet harvest of '96 began at Chino July 27th. The crop is light this year, particularly at Anaheim. It now appears an assured fact that a sugar factory is to be erected on the Alamitos ranch.
 The dried fruit market is devoid of activity. The old stock is fairly well cleaned up. Inquiry for the new crop stock for future delivery thus far is light. The raisin growers and packers have failed completely to perfect their organization for marketing. The shortage of this crop is estimated at from 25 to 50 per cent.
 Price of oil remains firm. Locally the light product of the new wells is discouraging to further drilling in the developed stratum. From outside localities much activity is reported, notably at Summerland.
 Business in all lines is quiet. Money is tight. Bankers and private in dividuals are disposed to loan eau tiously and sparingly awaiting the decision of the country on the financial issue of the present, political fight. The volume of deposits keep fairly we'll up. Interest rates are expected to be higher. Collections are slow.
 Failures for the month number twenty, liabilities $33,726, assets $3,933 as against seventeen for July 1895 with assets $17,0O0, liabilities $36, 900.

LAWYERS PHYSICIANS AND DI.
 VINES.

In the olden times these terms had reference to gentlemen-edu- cated, honorable gentlemen-pur- suing as a Profession, for which they have been expressly educated, Law, Physic, and Divinity; but in our times, and on this Continent, or on that part of It forming the late U. S., Lawyer is understood to signify a wary thief; Physician an interruptions imposter, and a Divine a blood-thirsty, sneaking, time serving, beggar. We are per fectly aware that in these Profes- sions there are, in San Francisco, a few as good men to-day as there ever were-men who keenly feel the humiliation of being associated in the public mind with the dirty blackguards who predominate in the three Professions. It may be lucrative, but it is not honorable, to pursue any one of the Professions named-viz; that of thief, mur' derer, or a beggar.-S. F. Ae'o' Teffeo.

All He Was Fit For.

The American says that in an Irish court recently an old man was called into the witness box, and being. old and little blind, he went too far in more senses than one, and instead of going up the stairs that led to the box, mounted those that led to the bench.
 The Judge took the mistake good hlmoredly.
 "Is it Judge you want to be, my good mani" he asked.

When he becomes @ candidate his heart is filled with the milk of human kind ness, which makes him a friend to every man. He becomes so deeply interested in your welfare and the health of your new twin babies are making cutting teeth, than we wish involuntarily every man was a can- didate and elections were held every time the moon fulIs.

IN DISGUISE.

Here is the plea the attorney of a defaulting bank cashier made for his client in a Pennsylvania town and the editor of the leading paper gives it out and comments by say ing that such pleas have become common in courts of justice: "Your honor" said the attorney, "my client desires to enter a plea of guilty and throw himself upon the mercy of the court. I hope you will in deciding upon the sentence, take into consideration the fact that my client has always been a consistent member of the church and has shown his zeal for religious work by taking an active part in our Sunday school work. He has been an earnest and energetic worker in the cause of religion un- til he was tempted to depart from the path of rectitude, charmed by tho voice and wiles of siren whom you will all recognize without me mentioning any names. It is true that my client has squandered some $S5,0OO of the money belong ing to the bank of which he was the honored cashier, but under sore temptation he fell, and I ask you to take these facts into considera- tion."
 This is indeed a sad and mourn ful case. It is too bad indeed that man should fall under the spell of a siren and be tempted to squander $85,O00 of honest depoeitors' money on her. It is lamentable indeed that these unfortunate creatures who have been consistent mem- bers of the church" and have shown such a zeal for religious work and Sunday school instruction should be compelled to suffer for a theft they committed under the spell Of a sister siren of the church.
 The trouble with both the church and the laity nowadays is that when man is discovered who has put on the livery of heaven for the purpose of serving the devil they seek to condone his offense instead of condemning it as they should do. Take some poor unfortunate fellow who does not profess to be good enough to join a church and let him fall from the paths of recti- tude and be guilty of some petty of fense of these men who would con done the criminal acts of their "err- ing brother" would cruelty him and hold him up to public execration. The time has come when the fact that a man has been a Consistent member of the church" should no longer shield him from his mis- deeds.

THE August Land of Sunshine maintains the high standard which has come to be exected of the famous Southern California monthly. It con- tains poetry by John Vance Cheney and Charlotte Perkins Stetson, and a striking story by Miss Lillian Corbett Barnes, of Pasadena. MT. Chas. F. Lummis contributes an entertaining article on the subject of the autograph cliff, Fl Morro, in New Mexico where some of the early Spanish visitors to America wrote their names and ad- ventures. An interesting article on the vaquero is contributed by Flora Haines Loughead, of Santa Barbara. There are numerous other interesting features to the August number, which is elegantly illustrated throughout.

Game Bird Shooting.

Field training is quite as essential

down the game as for the dog in prop.
erly finding it. No kind Of target
shooting will take the place of practice
on actual game. A man may shoot
shotgun capitally over trap, and yet
fail miserably in the field; and, con.
trariwise, I have known good field
shots who, when placed before trap,
missed glass balls or clay pigeons with
the most consistent regularity. OF
course trap shooting eau accomplish
something in the way of teaching the
tyro to handle gun properly, but,
considered rs mere practice, 1t is very
poor substitute for field shooting; and
considered as sport, it has no rank
whatever.
If one wishes to "keep his hand in"
during the close season, the most efh.
cacious plan Is to shoot at O target
with rifle. This, indeed, is excellent
practice at all times as IN aid to wing
shooting, though seemingly the two
are so very different. The value lies
in this, that rifle shooting teaches one
the necessity of accurate aiming. which
the bird shooter is apt carelessly to
overlook, and corrects the tendency to
Jerk the trigger prematurely. which
persons of nervous temperament are
prone to acquire, particularly in wood.
land shooting. Many man, under
the stress of the excitement incident
to the flushing of game, acquires the
bad habit of habitual and almost in
voluntary snap shooting, regularly
pulling the trigger as soon as the gun
is OF shoulder, though he may be fully
aware an instant later that the aim
was nowhere near the bird. Rifle
practice, better than anything else,
will tend to correct this, teaching the
almost automatic mental mechanism
That governs one at the moment OF
snap shooting, to demand at least an
approximately accurate aim before re-
leasing the trigger. Ofcourse no sue
,essful handler of the shotgun expects
his aim with this weapon to be abso-
lutely riae.like, but the more nearly
one approximates that standard the
fuller will be his game bag, on an

an aerial journey more than 900 feet
above the earth! The scheme is to
swing a midair suspension railway
from the top of the Eiffel Tower to
the summit of the distant Trocadero,
from which will be hung by rollers
chairs making the journey back and
forth.
Think of it! The Eifel Tower is
9s5 feet high. 1t will give you some
notion Of what that means to recall
the copper cap on the top of our
Washington Monument is only 555
feet from the ground.
Imagine such trip! Some folks
found the journey round the Ferris
Wheel at our Worlds Fair nervous
ordeal. Compared with this aerial
cable line, the Ferris Wheel is posi-
lively ridiculous as hair starter.
If shooting through the clouds in q
cane bottomed chair is not sensational
enough to stir the blood Of our modern
novelty lover, let him enter the sur
veying tower, which will be built close
by. There is nothing particularly
startling about the suggestion OF q
surveying tower, you say. Just wait
till you hear all.
You will enter a leaning cylindrical
tower about fifty feet high and made
of tempered steel. 1t locks like moth
ing more imposing than a metallic
Tower of Pisa. You will find circu-
lar seat inside, capable of holding
about twenty persons. You will sit
down and probably grasp the railing
pretty tight, meantime holding your
breath.
When the seats are all filled you will
suddenly shoot up into the air for a
distance of two hundred feet!
You will then discover that your
tower is made Of concentric steel tubes
that telescope into each other, and
