Rem1znlScence Of
lanes 4. Taegard

Speaking Of Judge Taggard :"
said J. A. Leach, "recalls many pleas
ant conversations | have had with
him regarding the early days in Cali
fornia. It is now fifty-one years since
the judge and myself went to Cali
tornia and first met in San Francisco.
Those were strenuous times-days
when the vigiantes were the safe
guard of the community and pro-
tected the homes and the few women
and children that had found their
way to the gold camps of California.
The judge and myself have often re-
called "reminiscences, and his expert
ences and my own in those days
were Hose of hundreds of others who
had hardships and privations to en-
dure while prospecting for gold
was in San Francisco the day that
James King, editor Of the Bulletin,
was shot by Casey. Such excitement
! never saw before nor since. Casey
was afterwards taken from the jail
by the vigilantes and hung. King
was shot because of the exposures of
municipal corruption which at that
time was most fragrant. His assassin
was taken to the jail, and although
within a very few minutes after the
shot was fred there We're rumors that
the murderer would be lynched, it
was NOT until the next day that the
execution occurred The crowd
mounted a couple of cannon upon
wagons and wheeled them to the all
doors and gave the sheriff Is min
utes to produce the prisoner Five
minutes. then five more were counted
off, and as the hands began to tick
off the last minutes the doors We're
thrown open and the prisoner deliv-
cred to his doom. An accomplice
was also hung with him.

Acronauts or in a Bunch.

ST. LOUIS, Oct. 21.-Drifting
along in a direction just west of
north when lost to view in haze
of falling night and with a freshen-
ing breeze from the southwest be-
hind them, nine big balloons are
competing tonight for the honor at
tached to winning the second inter-
national aeronautic cup race. A
SITTER wind would have been more
welcome to the aeronauts, but a five
mile breeze of the lower air stsata
gave promise of splendid racing cur
rents in higher attitudes. The Ger
mans, acting on this theory, reached
for the higher courses right from the
start. The French and English
selected the middlt departments
while the Americans raced away at
an altitude which seemed to take
them just clear of the trees and
housetops So low in fact did two
of them balk their cars that there
was grave danger of the bask cts
naking over the crowded grandstand,
and in the excitement which pre-
vailed the St. Louis, one of the larg-
est balloons in the race. came so
close 10 the grandstand that it was
seized by squad of soldiers and
swept back to the starting point and
sent away two minutes fter the Of
fetal word was given. In the race
there are three balloons representing
America three representing Ger
many, two France and one from Eng
land. The record for a race was es-
tabished last year by Lieutenant
Lahm of the United States in a fight
from Paris to England, which is 4O2
miles

drawal from market of more or less
q the crop.
n is the contention Of the poolers
that large proportion of the Oregon
crop has been sold short and to get
the hops the short-sellers can be
made TO pay living price for them.
They point ont that some of the pools
in the past were failures because the
growers did not hold together long
1899 pool. It was formed on SC
or &c market in order to lift prices
to 15c or zoe. The members broke
away, however, and in the inevitable
crash, prices fell TO 8 cents. After
touching this low level when nearly
all the growers had sold. the market
righted itself ard went soaring. The
few who held on were not sorry for
their obstinaey. One of them was
Frank Dunn of Eugene, who sold out
Ia IS to 20 cents hops that cost him
) cents. The causes of the failure
of the 1905 pool are too we'll known
to need repeating
The dealers are. of course, almosi
unit in opposing the formation of
any pooling arrangement They look
upon 1t as merely the first step of
consignment scheme which naturally
would injure their business in the
eastern and foreign markets. and
most of them think it is being faith
cred by NJ. II. burst, who worked up
last years big London consignment.
One of the reasons for the failure
Of such ventures, it is contended, is
that pools naturally comprise a wide
assortment of quality, and in trying
to sell a big block of hops, the poor
er quality affects the better and the
sale falls through. The plan of get
ting some one person 10 grade the
different lots, it IS asserted. proves
a failure, as no buyer will take the
inspection of another person. 1t is
the same with brewers, as after they
receive hops from the coast or else
where they have their own inspector
leinspect them Therefore the Pa
cifc coast buyer does his own in
speeding, as it is the only protection
he has against demands for conces-
sions.

SO SAYS CAPT. THOMAS AND A
COUNCILMAN.
CITY IS SUBJECT TO
WILL OF LAND OWNER
IT Has Been Decided That Dyking
District Must Be Formed
For Sewer Outlet.

THE sewer system Of the city is
Detective stated Captain Thomas
Monday. Here is an expenditure of
hundreds of thousands Of dollars with
the system dumping on the edge of
town, on land not really belonging
tic the city On this ground which is
proposed for public park the sew
age is taken care of by springs on
this land, and if these springs were
shut off in two days it would clog
up every sewer pipe in town.
with the water shut off in this
manner the city would be strictly up
against it."
Councilman Shaw is of the same
opinion in regard to the sewer prob
lem as Captain Thomas.
1t is apparent. according to state
ments made that the sewer system
depends entirely upon the springs on
the Thomas land.
The question of the city purchas-
ing the Thomas tract for a septic
tank site for the sum of $500 has
bee put up to the city engineer,
city attorney and the finance COM
mittee of the city council. They will
investigate the proposition this week.
It has developed that the question
OF dyke to protect the sewer out
let at the foot of Yakima avenue has
taken a new turn. City Attorney
Forsyth has given an opinion that 1t
will be absolutely necessary to Pc
tition the county commissioners to
foi a dyking district to pay the ex-
penses of a dyke for protecting the
sewer.
This will be done at once, it is
stated, : in all probability the dyk-
Ing D. will be formed to build
this OPPOSITION. The outlet of the
sewer was washed away last spring In
the floods and there has been consid-
cradle talk OF building a dyke since
then, but nothing has been accon.p-
lished

GROWERS SELL MORE READILY.
Offerings i'm the Hop Market Are Com
paratively Free.

The easier tendency of the hop
market has made many of the grow
ers more willing to sell. and business
has shown a considerable increase in
activity in the past few days. Buy
ing has not been confined TO any one
section, but operations have been
carried on in all parts of the valley
Some heavy buying done by O..
Weidner & Co. has just come to light.
This firms purchases since Saturday
have amounted to about 400 bales
The lots secured were at McMinn-
vile, Silverton, Eugene, Corvallis,
Aurora and Whiteson and the prices
paid ranged from az to 10 cents.
At the latter price the firm secured
$50 bales from w. C. Cook and R.
jacobson of McMinnville. Klaber,
Wolf & Meter bought several lots
Yesterday in different sections. The
days purchases of Hart & Hubbard
amounted 10 POS bales at prices
ranging from ~ to So cents. H.
l.. Bents of Aurora, buying for NJ. II.
burst. secured two lots aggregating
So bales from A. H. Cone of Aurora
at Sa4 cents. and also the William

HOP POOL.
Discussion in Portland Market OF
Proposition.

The discussion of the proposed
growers hop pool was the topic of
leading interest in the hop market,
says the Portland Oregonian. While
some of the dealers were skeptical
about such movement even being
under way, reports from the country
confirmed the account given in this
paper So far as can be learned
however, the matter has not gone
beyond the preliminary stages of dis
cussion. The growers in the vicinity
of Sherwood are heartily in favor
Of the plan and viii hold a meeting
in few days TO take some decisive
steps. Efforts toward the same object
are also under way in the Ballston.

subject has likewise been canvassed

the year discovered that he had undertaken too
much for of his narrow means and large family.
Franklin had concluded too that young men who
entered the. ministry were poorly paid in this
country.
So to give a more practical turn to the boys
education he transferred him from the grammar
school to one kept by George Brownel who was
noted for his skill in teaching arithmetic and the
use of the quill During the year Franklin was at
this school he learned to write good hand; but
failed entirely in mathematics Possibly he might
have continued at the school longer had not the
master turned his boy pupils adrift, and for the
future confined his attention to teaching to
paint on glass; to do filigree work and embroidery
to put flowers muslin, and cover their short
aprons with rich brocade
Thus ended all the regular tuition Franklin ever
received; but slight it was he never forgot its
benefit, and in his will he left one hundred pounds
to his native town, this to be put at interest
and the income annually laid out in silver medals
which should be given to students in the schools as
rewards.
Franklins education must have begun at home
for he could not have entered the grammar school

ductive period of boyhood
was cut very short. Ben's
elder brothers early became
apprentices, learning various
trades, and he himself was
only seven years old when
his father endeavored to ar
range his life's career. Frank
Inns plan was to devote Ben,
as the 1.-THE of his sons, to
the service of the church -;
and one of the boys uncles
graciously promised, when
his nephew should be ready
for the pulpit, to set him up
with a bundle of sermons that
he had written in shorthand
by a system of his own in
vention. To make Ben a
preacher special attention
must be paid to his educa-
ton, and the next year he
was placed in the Boston
Grammar School, where he
soon rose to the head of his
class. The lad would have
gained other promotion had
not his father at the end of
