An Astoria girl says she has a no tion to start in the iusuranco busi ness and thinks she could make n ucress of it. Why not' The Idaho will leave for Alaska to morrow and will take a big lot of freight and passengers from here for the salmon canneries of the far north. A company with a capital of $1,000, 000 has been formed at Montreal for the prosecntioj of seal fishing in tho Pacific ocean, with headquarters at Victoria. The chief engineer of the Astoria liro department rises to remark in a deep bass voice that whenever there is n fire he proposes to run the de partment. Does blooded stock pay in Oregon? Well Gov. Moody thinks so. In 1880 he invested S1.200 in Jerseys. Since then he has sold 815,000 worth and valuer his herd to-day at 25,000. The Telephone is being pushed to completion as rapidly as possible. An unauthenticated report is to the ef fect that Capt. Scott will rnn her as a night boat between here and Port land. Astoria merchants are reciving large stocks of goods from San Fran cisco and the east, principally from the east, as they find they can buy con siderably cheaper there than at the Bay city. The government works at Yaquina bay havotieen shut down. The ap propriation has been exhausted and ali government improvements for the present suspended. The lnborers have been discharged. The S1.500 applicable to that pur pose has been used to redeem that amonnt of bonds' of school district No. One the holder surrendering them at par. and waiving interest on same from January 1st, 188S. Tho Juvenile Opera Troupe are booked for Boss' opera house April Gthand 7th in tho "Mikado" and "Ol ivette.'' They are said to bo immense", and have appeared to crowded houses in Portland aad San Francisco. Largo numbers of tho school chil dren of San Francisco have been withdrawn from school on account of tho low temperature of the school rooms. In many of tho schools the temperature is not above 40 degrees. Tho reason of this is that the city does not provide enough fuel. Two's team drew the en gino to the fire yesterday afternoon for the first time. They got out in quick timo and attracted considerable attention. Thqbig advantage of the team would bo manifest about one o'clock A. M. when the most of tho citizens nro asleep, and time is worth about 825,000 a minnte. The fire alarm yesterday evening was caused by spontaneous combus tion of somo cotton wasto in a shed near Arndt & Ferchen's machine works and was quickly extinguished. The department was on hand, bat no water was thrown, the Babcocks and a stream from the hose.on the prem ises putting the Are out.

Squatters are said to make elear ingsin the heavily-timbered lauds of British Columbia by boring one large nolo in lue trnuk slanting upward and another from a point well up the trnuk and slanting downward, both meeting in the heart of the tree. Then the upper hole will b,e filled wun any convenient comnnstiDie ana ignited. The long bole acts as a chim ney, and the fire burns furiously tin til tho tree is destroyed. The engine, shaft and propeller of tho illfated Gleaner was brought ashore yesterday by Capt, T.K. John son, together with axes, lintorns, etc., and tho United States mail sack, filled with Deep Itiver mail, the lat ter being turned over to post-master Bell. The hull will be left for time and tide to wear away. It may be a source of trouble to gill nets the coming season, and it would be in or der to have it pulled apart and remov ed. Between sixty and seventy men arc employed at the jetty. In extending the jetty seaward a change is made in tho distance between the bents. For merly the rows of piles were driven ten feet apart, and the stringers were 10x11 inches. Thid left but nine feet iu the clear to dump the rock in. Now tho bents are sixteen feet apart and the stringers arc 12x10 inches. The piles are all driven by the hydraulic process and the work is progressing satisfactorily. Hearing that the Idaho lia.l been drawn off tho route, and that there would be no steamer till the nth of nex't month, A. W. Berry interviewed B. Campcll, general freight manager. and telegraphed prominent San Fran cisco shippers to have thentinterview Goodall, Perkins & Co there The result was that Capt. Hunter got a telegram to start for Alaska, instead of going to San Francisco as was the original order, anil fhr leaves Port laud to-day to load here for Alaska. The following story is going the rounds, of a Los Angles real estate dealer who died, and nppeared before tho tribunal of St. Peter. "Ah!'' said Peter, "who :sro you?'' With a great deal of assurance aud self conj pkcency, ho replied: "I was a Los Anglos real estate dealer." "Oh? jnst step in the elevator," said Peter. Af ter waiting half an hour or 50, tho agent becoming ttred, called to Pefer, "I say, when does this elevator go up.

These latter prices the millmen there refuse to pay, having organized a "trust," and now the loggers say "what's the mat ter with our building mills and saw ing, too?" The southern California demand has given an impetus to the lumber business on the Columbia and the Sonnd that makes it lively and prosperous for ell concerned," but men will probably think twice before they invest in costly nppliauces that may prove unprofitable when the in evitable reaction takes place. The captains and pilots plying on tno uoinmoia ana 11 tllametn rivers arc about to organize a union for the advancement or theirmntual interests ami ior tucir protection in caso any uisagreemcui regaruiug wages or amount of work should arise between them and steamboat owners or corpor ations. They have alreadv held one meeting looking toward this organiza tion ana nnotner will bo held sbortlv to complete it. The captains and pilots aro now about the only class of empioyea men not yet organized, and they do not propose to be behind the times. Thus warbleth a poetic coast edi teur: If I die as die I will and go to the courts above, where the souh of the saints with rapturo thrill iu the infinite day of love, I will gazo on the fields of mystic green where riv ers of silver flow, I will hear the mus ic of choirs unseen, watch tho groat soa'3 ebb and flow; through peaceful valea my feet shall stray, as.I view the landscape o'er; I will walk in a better, happier way than ever I trod before. But I scarco suppose the marvelous scene will seem as strange to me though tho rivers are silver, the fields are green in tho land bv the mystic sea as it will be to the man from tho frozen East who reach es tho pearly door and sees each beau tythough but tho least unknown to his sight bo fore; for he has lived in tho East forlorn, and I in tho Gold en West, and mirror of heaven's per fect morn is earth at its wondrous best.

A MAN SWAGELY IiE.YTES. About midnight last Thursday night, Oscar Hanson, a member of the Coast Seamen's union, recently ar rived here from San Fraucisco, was called out of Lizzie Miller's place by a man whom he followed to the next corner, where he was attacked by two other men nnd brutally beaten over the head by them. The weapon used was an,iron bar Ijelieved to have been picked up in front of Arndt & Fer chen's. Having done this his assail ants ran oil aud the wounded man was picked up by passers-by and car ried to the Fleetwood Saloon, where his wounds received attention. Yesterday afternoon three men, J. W. Dunlap, N. Cuccolich and J. Ilu bin, were arrested, charged with as sault, and brought before Justice Cleveland, .who took them down to where the wounded man was lying. Being sworn, he gave the following testimenv: "I was at Lizzie Miller's; a fellow called me out, said come round the cor ner, nnd then when I went round the corner he hit me. As soon as he hit me I lo3t my senses. Ho struck me all over my head. I know who they wore. Bubin did not call me; Dun lap I can't swear to; tho other man I could not see. Both the two men hit me; it could not have been with the fist, they cut me up so. When I was called I was in at Lizzie Millers; don't kuow who else was in there. The man that called me had a kind of red mustache; I did not take much notice of him. He said "come round the corner; I want to Bpeak to you." Tuen I knewnothing until af ter I was picked np. I have had no trouble with 'anjoue. I had drank a few glasses, but was not drunk. The man that called mo out had a soft hat, black I believe. Dunlap looks like him. I cannot swear to him. The mnn said nothing to me after I came out. I don't know what thoy hit me for. I am a ailor; I be-1 long to no ship: I have not shipped j on nuy other." At the justice office It. Monteith ' wn sworn. In the conrso of his tes-1 timony he was asked: "Were you close enough to recognize these men?" His answer was: "Yes; but I don't recognize theso men n.-i tho same men."' The defendants were discharged. 1 Hanson's wounds aro serious, bnt, the physician thinks, are not danger ons. There were several rumors aud positive statements as to the cause of tho nssault, but nothing transpired at the examination as to tho motive that prompted the cowardly attack Will Not Witharav, AsTor.iA, Or., "March 20. lf Editor A storms ' As I go away From Astoria for ' awhile I wish to say to the people of this county that I accept the nomina tion of the prohibition pnrty forshor iff in good faith nnd I will not with draw under any circumstances.

A prohibition meeting was held last 1 Thursday night at llescne club hall, ' Dr. Aug. C. Kiuney presiding. The clnb was named the "Astoria Prohi bition Club,"' and it was decided to hold meetings of the party every Thursday night at Bescne club hall. A committee of three, consisting of Dr. Aug. C Kinney, Jacob E. Saari and C. H. Stockton, was appointed to challenge both the Democratic aud Bepublican parties to joint open de bate. The question proposed for dis cussion with tho Democrats is, ,l7'e solved, That the prohibition of the liquor traffic is a greater necessity to the people of this conutry than either free trade or tariff for revenue only." The question for discussion with tho Bepublican party is to be the same, excepting the words "protective tar iff" aro substituted for "free trade or tariff for revenue only.'

INFANTILE SKIN DISEASES Our olilest child, now six years of ate. when an infant six months old was attacked with a virulent, nmlimant skin disease. All ordinary remedies failinc, we called our fam ily physician, who attempted to euro it; bnt it spread with almost incredible raoidity, un til the lower portion of tbo litilo fellow's per son, troia the middle of his back down to his knees, was one solid rash, ugly, painful, blotched, and malicious. Wo had no rest at nisht.no peace by day. l'inally, we were advised to try tho Cuticcea Kejifpifs. The effect was simply marvellous. In three or four weeks a complete enro was wrought, lein ins the little fellow's person as white and hculthy as though ho had never been at tacked. In my opinion jour valuable reme dies saved hi? life, and to-day he is n strong, healthy child, perfectly well, r.o repetition of the disease having ever occurred. , GEO. K. SMITH. .
