Engineer Thielsen returned from Clatsop yesterday. Tho preliminary survey is now completed. It is reported that a prominent member of the city council was mar ried in Portland yesterday. There will be Divine service in the Presbyterian church to-morrow, Rev. J. E. Day officiating morning and evening. To the 23rd inst., there had arrived at San Francisco twenty-two vessels from Alaska, with 298,011 cases and 3,733 bbls. salmon. Services at the Methodist church to-morrow.

Cole, of Albina, got some toi let soap the other day, and thinking one of the cakes felt a little heavy, cut it open and found a silver dollar in it. "Next.

Clement Orteig, whose narrow es cape from death on tho Coquille was remarkable, "returned to the city yes terday. He says that he owes his life to J. W. Hume, who brought him back from the verge of the grave. The Astoriajj is of the belief that if theatrical troupes lowered their prices of admission a little thev would do better financially. To play to 800 people at an average of 50 cents would cost them no more than to play to 250 people at au average of 75 cents. Newspaper reporters have caught on to a new system and now carry photographic cameras to obtain in stantnneous views of things dealt with in their reports, either to aid iu a graphic writing-up of their notes, or to bo reproduced as illustration.! of their articles. The steamer Mischief on Tuesday brought 2,000 cases of salmon from tho Alsea Packing company, says the Yaqninn 'J'oil. This company has canned about 7,000 cases of salmon so far this season, and have a good prospect for securing two or three thousand more. Last season the cannery turned out 9,500 cases. Next to some of the men who are betting on the election, the most mis taken animal we havo seen this month was a cat, yesterday morning, that stepped on some of that floating sawdust near the Clatsop mill, think ing it was solid. Poor Tommy; his rigid limbs are rolling toward the ocean, and his rioh tenor no longer woos Mariar to the midnight fence. A fine korae belonging to Dick Ma rion lost its life yesterday in a singu lar manner. The animal was hoisting material to the second story of the new brick building on Third street, and the purchase raised throwing the collar up about his neck and choking him. He fell, and in falling broke something in his body; the poor beast lingered several hours in agony. He was valued at S150. The Portland News says: Rev. J. R. Thompson, of Vancouver, is in town on a visit This is the gentle man who Hon. Paul achulze once said was the "d- est best preacher on the coast." Mr. Bcnulze greatly admires Mr. Thompson. When North Yakima was first started Mr. Thomp son opened a new church, and Paul Sehnlza stood outside beating a tri angle and calling sinners to come in side and be saved. The dime museum proprietors of Kan Franoisco are an enterprising lot Recently it happened that a man was going to be executed m the city jaujioon, 0 cents. for wife murder. They wrote to him offering $500 for the loan of his body for thirty days, saying they would rig it up in artistic style and use it as a great moral example to the com munity. The murderer declined the offer with thanks, as he said the money would be of no use to him after ho was hanged. Tho Weston Leader is the only newspaper in Oregon advocating the election of Streeter and Cunningham. the Union Labor candidates for pres ident ana vice-president. In the last issue to hand it says: "Postpone the coming election six months, and Streeter and Cunningham would be elected by an overwhelming major ity." But you cawn't do it, my man. Thete are 64173.829K people impa tient now to have the election over and done with, and to nave that event any farther in the future than Novem ber Gtb, 1888, wonld make the biggest kind of a riot. Sheriff Ross's bet S1.000 on Cleve land's election, referred to in yester day's Astoria's, is reported by the Portland Telegram to be an offer from him to Mark Mass. Mass took him up. Onr sheriff hud a check with him for a large amount of money, but the check is not payable till the 13th of November. But he said ho'd get S1.000 in coin, and he and Mass put up a forfeit of 100, the condition being that the man not ready with the thousand dollars at noon, Wednesday should forfeit the S100. At 11:45 Jas. G. Steele brought in S1.000 in a sack for sheriff Ross, and a few minutes after Mass put up his thousand dollars. Steele is stake bolder. It is pleasant, under the circumstances, to hear of those large amounts of gold coin that are being wagered so freely. PERSONAL MENTION. J. C. Dement is iu Tacoma. F. Sherman, who hns been seriously ill, is better. J. W. Hume and a part of his men, returned yesterday from the Coquille. Mr. C. B. Hegardt takes oliargo of the government work at Fort Ste vens, vice G. W. Freeman, resigned. Geo. W. Freeman and wife went to Portland last evening, en route to Oakland, Cal., where Mr. Freeman takes the responsible position of di vision superintendent on the division of the S. P. R. It, between Sacra mento and Los Angeles. During his two years' residence at Fort Stevens in charge of the government work there, Mr. Freeman has made an en viable record and boats of friends will be glad to hear of his deserved promotion. Not T)r.AuR.Klnney,But His Brother, M. J. Last year when the talented lectur er, Miss Narcissa White, was through Oregon, she met and became ac quainted with Dr. Aug. Kinney, of Astoria, one of the most prominent temperance workers in Oregon. It seems to have been a case of love at first sight. After Miss White left, a correspondence followed, which ri pened into nn engagement, and the affair is to be consummated with a wedding to-day at Miss White's pres ent home, in Nebraska. Satem Statesman, S3. An Explanation. Whnt is this "nervous trouble" with which so many seem now to be af flicted? If yon will remember a few years ago tho word Malaria was com paratively unkuown, to-day it is as common as any word in the English language, yet this word covers only the meaning of another word used by our forefathers in times past So it is with norvous diseases, as they and Malaria are intended to cover what onr grandfathers called Billionsness, aud all are caused by troubles that arise from a diseased condition of the Liver which in performing its func tions finding it cannot dispose of the b.le through the ordinary channel is compelled to pass it off -through the system, cansiug nervous troubles, Malaria, Bilious Fever, etc. You who nre suffering can well appreciate a enro.

The lower portion was occupied by Sterner & Mdgks, general merchan dise store, and the upper portion was occupied by the Masonic lodges. Sterner & Mogka loss is 850,000; in surance, 825,000. The lodges' loss is 37,500, partly insured. The loss on the building is 812,000, partly in sured. A CATTLE MURRAIN. Washington, Oct 26. The commis sioner of agriculture has informed the treasury department that cattle driven from Sonora, Mexico, to Ari zona imparts to the cattle in that territory a contagious disease, known as 8plenetio fever, from which large numbers have died. He requests, in view of the large cattle industry and the great danger from the infection, that importation of cattle from So nora into that territory be prohibited except at points where the animals can be properly inspected. The treasury department has accepted the suggestion and prohibited impor tation, except at Nogales and Yuma, and at these points only when shown that they are free from contagious disease. A CHINESE FIRECRACKER. New YORK, Oot. 26. The following circular has just reaohed the Chinese merchants of New York from their home offices in Hong Kong and Shanghai: "Gentlemen: Yon afe hereby no tified that you are to immediately discontinue the purchase of the fol lowing articles from American sources and markets, as they are being se verely boycotted by kim maid, or by members of the tra,de3 union, or the citizens 'of China. These articles, now proscribed, ore petroleum, white sheeting of all kinds, American cali cos, watches, and American fire arms, ginseng root and flour." With the exoeption of a few Chi nese firms in New York the above circular will have no effect, but many San Franoisco firms will feel its effect severely, as several of them are heavy dealers in American flour, petroleum and cotton goods. HARD TO ENFORCE. El Paso, Oct 26. The task of en forcing the Chinese exclusion act proves to be no easy one along the Mexican frontier. EI Paso, Texas, and Paso del Norte, Mexico, are separated only by the Rio Grande, wmen is at present practically ford able, and is always so for ten months in the year. There are two or three hundred Chinamen in these two cities and heretofore they have crossed freely from ono to the other. The collector is enforcing the law as fully as nis small force ot inspectors will permit, but it is an easy matter forUninese to violate them, more over, the Chinamen can easily comn np tuo Mexican railroad or cross the country from Unaymas or other Pa cific points, and slip across the line into tho United States. ARIZONA'S PROGRESS. Washington, Oct. 26. O. M. Zu Iick, governor of Arizona, in his an nual report to the secretary of the interior, states that during the year there has been steady progress in growth and development ot the terri tory. The population has has largely increased. Indian depredations are things of the past, and life and prop erty are now safe and law and order are supreme. During the year 292,841 acres of public land were entered by settlers, 200 milesot canal for irrigation are in operatiorj, aud 100 miles additional are to ba built during the present year. The importance of congress author izing a hydrographic survey of the territory to demonstrate the feasi bility of artesian wells, and water storage reservoirs is dwelt upon at length. The yield of gold and silver last year was 35,771,555. tiovernor Zulick renews his recom mendation of last year for a survey of public lauds in that territory and urges an early settlement of private land grants. He opposes the propo sition before congress to transfer tnese claims to a special court created tor this purpose. "Ify Wife Is a Terror." Said a mild-tempered man in our hearing.

Severe Scalp Disease Cared, A few weeks ago my wife suffered very much from a cutaneous disease of the scalp, and received no relief frem the various rem edies she used until she tried Cuticcea. The disease promptly yielded to this treat ment, and in a short while she was entirely well.

To be freed from the dangers of suffocation while lying down ; to breathe freely, sleep soundly and undisturbed ; to rise refreshed, head clear, brain active and free from pain or ache ; to know that no poisonous, putrid matter defiles the breath and rots away the delicate machinery of smell, taste and hear ing ; to feel that the system does not, through its veins and arteries, suck up the poison that is sure to undermine and destroy, is indeed a blessing beyond all other human enjoyments. To purchase immunity from such a fate should be the object of all afflicted. But those who hare tried many remedies and physi cians despair of relief or cure. SANFOBD'd Radical cube meets every phase of Catarrh, from a simple head cold to the most loathsome and destructive stages. It is local and constitutional. Instant in re lieving, permanent in curing, safe, economi cal and never-failing.
