An Astoria dis patch of February.24, to the Oregon Ian, says : "Mix men I a boat atartod from the camp o( the bridge-bnildors, on Young's bay, the new railroad bridge, to come down the river clam ing near Fort Slovens. They have not since been beard from, although a inarching party went after them. The f riouds of the men fnnr they have been blown to tea and drowned. Tbe su perintendent of construction aayi he does not think any more lorioua acci dent has happened than some slight damage to the boat, necessitating their laying up for repairs. No heavy steins tiave prevailed since they went out, and two of the men are old sailors." No Mors Horse Meat. The horse csnnory at Linnton has ahut down, and will, perhaps, never resume opera tions again. Tho principal reason riven is that there Is no foreign mar ket, upon which the projectors largely, in faot almost entirely, depended. The Belgium authorities closed their coun try against horse meat on February 1, and Germany is unfriendly to such a produot. Hinoo tbe LI no too eatab liMhment has buen in operation about 7000 horses have been slaughtered, and efforts have been made in various ways to And a market (or the meat, but have not been successful in any considerable degree. The plant waa erected at a coat of many thonaands of dollars and will, no doubt, prove a heavy loss to the gentlemen who pot their money into it. FlTZSIMMOKS THB CHAM HO. The Ttrisefight between Robert Fitiiim nions and Fetcr Matter for the heavy weight championship of the world look place near El Paso, Texas, last Friday, and resulted in a victory for Fitssim mon in the first round, which lasted only one minute and 35 seconds. The purse was for (20,000 and a side bet of 110,000. FitxHimmona is now the champion of the world, and although in the middle-weight claaa he has gained tho heavy-weight champion ship, and has signified bis willingness to defend the title against tho world. Kx Clismpion Corbeii hss sent a chal lenge to Fitxslmmons agreeing to fight liim for any amount, the fight to take place at any point iu the world that tbo latter may suggest. But Fits says Corbell muit first whip Mnhor and O'DonneU bclore ho can cousider tbe challenge To Protect Salmon. Scarcely an Issue of any paper on the Lower Co lumbia appears without an eiprcssion of the desire for a proper aalraon law. This paragraph from the Ilwaoo Jour nal is a case in point: "The extraor dinary large pack of salmon made lust season, especially of full fish, and tbe ready markot found for tbe fall pack, 1ms set many wild to got into tbe pack tug business. The harvest reaped from the Columbia last season was the most valuable and profitable harvest reaped in the state, and it is Only to be Imped that this may prove so again this season ; but some sensible, practi cable legislation will be needed very aouo to preveut the extermination of the salmon, and to cause tbe restock ing of the river with sturgeon, which have in a few years been practically exterminated." The question is, Wilt the Oregon legislature pay any alteu tiou to these warnings! Mountain Meadow Massacre. -A heated discussion took place oo our etreota Wednesday between several citixcns who oould not agree as to tne exact date or year the Mountain Mead ow Massacre occurred. No two could agree, and the diacussiou spread like a prairie fire from one to another until the question was made a general quer ry by people mooting on the streets and in the business bouses. All were wron?, however, as none claimed the niassacro occurred later than 1860. Later in the evening someone more studious than the others consulted his history wlieroin the truth was learned, to-wit: That the Mountain Meadow Massacre took place on Tuesday, the 13th day of September, 1857, under the leadership of John 1), Lee, a Mor mon, who twenty years later, in Sep tember, waa executed for the part ho bad tttkoo in the great Mormon slaugh ter of men, women and ohildren, where an entire emigrant traiu, known as the Arkansas Company, consisting of about 140 people, were butchered. A Decision Monday.- Tbe case of Kelly vs. Lamberaon occupied the time of the district court all day Tues day and Tuesday evening, and a part of the forenoon Wednesday. It is a case in equity to test the validity of a certain conveyance to land at Houl ton, made by Aaron Broyles to John Frnntx, and afterwards from John Frnntx back to Aaron Broyles and wife. Aaron Broyles married a Mre. Frantz years ago and at the time of the marriage enoh of the contracting partlea held a donation land claim, and each had children by a former wife or husband. Mrs. Broyles, it is fluid, divided her claim during her life time, between her own children, and the home of the old couple being tho claim of the husband, was not sold or bequeathed to his heir, aa Mm. Kelly is s.iid to be the only child of Broyles. Home years elapsed and Iiroyloi be came bondsman or surety for. some party unknown to us, and waa about to be compelled to make the surety good, when, to avoid it, so the iitnry goes, he deeded his land to another with the undemanding Hint ut the proper time it was to be deeded back. But when the transfer was made back it was mado to Broyles and wife. A little later Broyles died, and conse quently the widow claimed the prop erty, and afterwards mado a win in which it was stipulated that her daughter, Mrs. Susio Lamberson, wag to have the home place. Tho plain tiff's contention is that Broyles always Intended that his daughter, Mrs. Kelly, should have his estate and that he was not awaro that when tho property was transferred back to him the deed con tained, also, the name of his wife. Upon thin ground it is sought to have tho will of Mrs. Broyles set aside as well ss the two conveyances heretofore mentioned, in which case the property would revert to Mrs. Kelly as the legal heir of Aaron Broyles. An opinion in the esse will bo handed down by Judge Bhattuek next Monday. The state ments herein are made only upon street talk by persons who claim to be familiar with tbe circumstances. No Hum Watkr This Year. The prospects are unfavorable to a big "June rise" In the Columbia this year. From all reporta there la but little snow in any of the mountains about the several sources of the rivei,says the Oregonian. This Is not favorable for fishermen at the dalles and cas cades. In order for the wheels to be successful. It is necessary to hsvo a good height of water. Fishermen who have been up the river looking over the situation, imagine that the wheels at the cascades and dalles will not do any better this year than they did last, which was a poor season for them, on account of the low water. The traps and selna aud nets are so numerous during the seasou In the lower part of the river that it is a wonder that any salmon over get up to the cascades or into the Clackamas. The only chance for the fish reaching the spawning grounda will be afforded during the close season, which begins March 1, and ends April 10th, If the fishermen can bo made to keep these nets out of tbe rivers during thia period, some fish may get tip beyond their reach before it ia over. Eutkrta jkino Lbctubes. Mrs. C. Owons, of Stockton, Cal., lectured here laat Friday, Saturday and Sunday evenings. On Friday evening ber ad dress was to the boya and girls, Satur day evening ber subject was "Charity," and Sunday evening "What Shall the Harvest Be." These lectures were very Interesting aa ia particularly evi denced by the fact that the audience greatly increased in eize each evening until Sunday evening the house was so crowded that many were compelled to stand. In company with Mrs. Owen waa a Miss Goes, who at different times entertained tbe assemblage with solo which were well rendered. At the close of the meeting on Friday and Saturday eveniuga Mrs. Owen sang a plantation song with organ accom paniment, which waa greatly enjoyed by those present. Thia is a novel idea of doing missionary work, but it ia no doubt a very effective way of doing good. The lecture on "Charity" could not fail to inspire one with some de gree of responsibility as to their duty toward others. Monday the Mission aries went to Goble whero tbey re mained most of tho week. Orkoon Fruit East Willis Brewn, representing the Oregon Fruit Union, writes from New York: "In green fruits Oregon is coming to the front. The Northwestern fruit will be the fruit that people want. Everyone wants our cherries, pears and green prunes. Iu a market where we ship iod thirty carloada, mostly green Ital ian prunes, our agent says : 'Uive me 100 cars this year.' With a better pack, prices will rule higher, I am sure. I have seen letters from coun try buyers, who have had this fruit, stating they want more ; it is such a good keeper, and I find tbat eyen when Italians were sold for GO to 70 cents per crate through Chicago auo lion houses, they were resold for 65 cents to $1, and in big demand all the time. Tbe whole proposition figured down, is this: There is money in growing Oregon fruit if it it properly packed and marketed. Thia can only tie done by experiment, and where an experiment has pitted more success ful, keep on improving on the same line." PEItBONAb AND LOCAL. County court meets next Wednes day. Myrtle Newell ia reported quite low with typhoid fever. County Surveyor Meeerve arrived in town yesterday from Scappoose. M. E. Weaver, the barber, has gone to Kelso, Wash., to be absent some time. .

With government Improvements going on at Clutskanie and Scappoose, Columbia county would attract con siderable attention.

Dr. Grant of the First Baptist and Dr. Wallace of the First Congrega tional churches, of Portland, have handed in tbeir resignations as pastors of those two great churches.

Mr. Harris, tbe deputy county clerk, was seen on our streets Saturday. R. Sesseman, of this city, waa elected a delegate to the state populist convention. Tbe literary society decided last Tuesday that man is tlie builder of bis ewe fortune. Guy Mills, tbe other day, had tbe misfor tune to cut bis knee badly with a drawing knife. Elder Sshucknecht came in from Port land Friday to hold quarterly meeting, re turning Monday. Mr. Bergerton aud Mr. Huber, of Upper Nehaleiu, took in tbe republican dab meet ing Saturday. Vernonia now has a Grand Army poet, with Sons of Veterans and Woman's Re lief Corps soon to follow. A large audience turned out, some com ing long distances, to hear H. C. Tripp, the noted temperance lecturer, bat were doomed to disappointment, he being unavoidably absent. The republicans of Auburn precinct are getting Interested as never before, and de termined tbat they will work te have the county ticket composed of such material that every one will be proud to vote it The republican party alwaya bas and al ways will be the true party of reform, al ways striving to put true and honest men on tbeir ticket. From the tone of the remarks in a com munication In the Sentinel in regard to tbe Independent ticket which some time age appeared in tbe Chief, one would be in clined to think that the Mr. Weed spoken of had defeated the Mr. Wood spoken of in a race for office some time in the past, and tbat it still rankled In said Wood's manly breast. The populists bad a large and enthusiastic club meeting last Saturday night, and got through with a large amount of important business in a short time, of which the fol lowing is a resume: Meeting called to or der and lltorary programme proceeded with, consisting of, Brat; a mock trial. The pris oner wore a badge to distinguish him from the witnesses, and you could easily tell the attorneys from the judge, because the former kept their seats (most of the time.) Theu the prisoner went eraxy, was visited by a ghost, and cut up didos generally. Next, a song, which was a clever transpo sition of a aong taken from the Oregonian, finishing up with several declamations, etc., by the children. After recess the business meeting was called. Motion made to have the meetings iu future in tbe afternoon, and dispense with the literary part. Opposed by several speakers, of which the gist was as follows, from one of the leading popu lists: "No sir, if we dispense with the funny part we won't have crowd enough to build a rat's nest." Motion defeated. A Houaehold Treasure. D. W. Fuller, of Canajolmrie, N. Y.. says that he always keeps Dr. King's New Dis covery in the bouse, and his family has al ways found the beat results foollow its use; that he would not be without it, if procur able. G. A. Dykeman. druggist. Catskill, N. V., says that Dr. King's New Discovery is undoubtedly the best couch remedy; that be has used it In his family for eight years, and it has never tailed to do all tbat is claimed for it.
