Sixty per cent of the desertions from vessels in the Columbia river are from vessels lying al Portland. Thero were two Salvation army parades last night. The first one kept the best time nnd made the best mu sic. Two declarations of intention were issued in tho county clerk's office yesterday one to get married, the other to become a citizen.

Judge Bowlby was in St. Helena last Wednesday, making arrange ments to tako-a party of railroad men to look at tho coal fields ot the Noha lem valley. Tho Cairnsmore, just arrived at San Franoisco from Liverpool, brought 11,930 boxes tin plato. Tho four tin-laden vessels, on the way here, are about due. Mrs. Dr. Owens-Adair, Jno.

There's ono place in Oregon where the ladies can vote, beside at a school meeting a prohibition party conven tion, and the convention is none the worse for it cither. Pilot Gunderson reports speaking the schooner Penelope, in tho oil ing last Thursday. She had 230 seals aboard and bid fair to hnve more from the way tho crew wore gather ing them in. There was .1 rainbow yesterday morning and shortly after tho flags flew from the signal service building and 113 Chinamen from that nest in front of the post office wanted to know "Walla Matta." People sometimes wonder what is done with tho bottles that certain people gather from door to door. On the last trip of the Umatilla from Ta coma, says tho News, she carried away 6.000 dozen beer bottles done np in 60 casks, which netted the shipper $3,000. One afternoon last week the steamer Alaskan, en routs to Tacoma, at tempted to overhaul the Fleetwood. The Fleetwood had about three miles the start, and when she noticed the Alaskan's intention, she did her best to reach Tacoma first nnd succeeded, arriving about 200 yards ahead of the Alaskan. This has been tho first of many Marches that one couldn't get auy fish iu Astoria except sturgeon, or that kind ot fish that comes from the east "with its vest nnbnttoned," as Bill Nye hath it. Probably some gen uine jard-wide-all- wool Chinook salm on will be found on Astoria Easter Sunday diuner tables. According to the report of the commissioner of navigation, tho ton nage of tho Pacific coast on Jnno 30, 1887, was as follews: State of Cali forniaNumber of vessels, 814; ton nage, 254,092. Oregon Vessels, 183; tonnage, 52,621. Washington terri toryVessels, 165; tonnage, 49,460. AlaBka Vesseh, 19; tonnago 630. Total number of vessels, 1238; total tonnage, 356,445. And now it seems one of the cer tainties that we are going to havo a brand new cablo across tho Columbia. The new ono onght to be laid farther up so that when vessels go mosdying along the same as tho Carrier Dove did, they wouldn't hurt it. Maybe it would be woll for Undo Sam to buy a cable this time that will cost a little moro and won't mind n little thing like n ships bower anchor fool ing aronnd it. Tho annual sale of furs by the Hud son Bay company nnd Sampsons' in London for March show a vast decline in prices ns compared with "those ot last year. In fisher there was a falling off 6 per cent; marten, 25 per cent; silver fox, 50 per cent; cross fox, 20 per cent; red fox, 5 per cent; white for, 35 per cent; lynx, 50 per cent; u"j "percent; mmK.j percent bleck bear, 25 per cent;brown bear, 10 per cent. As last March's figures were a decline on tho prices of pre vious years, there has been a great falling off in the value of furs com pared with what they brought a few years ago. An exchange gives the following ac count of nflnflTinin. tmnannftnn Tel.tnli took place in an office in that city a iow uays since: "liy some mean? or other it hannpni-rl Hint tl. n,iiin.lii owed one of the clerks three cants, iiiacierK owea tno cashier two cents, and the cashier owed the office-boy two Cents.

The latter handed" tho cent back to the office boy, remarking: 'Now I owe yon only one cent.' The office-boy again passed the cent to the clerk, who passed it back to the office-boy, and the latter squared nil aconnts by pay ing 11 10 me cienr, tnereuv mscnarg ing the entire debt." Thr 'Cleaner's" Passenger Li-t. hen the Gleaner was lost last January, those who were saved owed their lives largely to the fact that a hshing boat was being towed. When the passengers jumped from tho sinking steamer there was some web lying in it. belonging to Wm. J. Frits chen. This was quickly thrown ont to make room for life. The web was valnedat 850. Of this amount Mr. McFarland, who with a friend ofhis was on board, gave S'20 toward the worth of the web. The remainder ha.s been made up to tho owner of the not, and a receipt given fur the amount.
