This oity has been visited during the last few days by several profes sional beggars, whose natural and ac cidental qualifications for their avo cations have been greatly improved hv svstematio education. They are good judges of human nature and make more money than they could at some honest work. One, taking the rnlp-nf n hroken down merchant, is aaid to have unusually good address, nlnvinir the Dart of an unfortunate bat cultivated gentleman to perfec tion. The other bares his disgusting sores, and those who won't give from pity do so from disgust They are no good. Let tbem go to the hospital if they are deserviug of charity. the Jensen Can Filling Maohins -company bought tbe Astoria Iron Works last Thursday, and possession will bo given on the 1st of December. The company will give special atten ti m to the manufacture of those labor-saving canning machines, the product of Mr. Jensen's fertile in ventive genius. Mr. Jensen's ma chines can be found in every salmon- canning establishment from Califor nia to Alaska and have wrought com plete revolution in the canning in dustry on this coast. This latest en terprise ot the company, of which Mr. Jensen is the moving spirit, shows that he is meeting with the success whioh his ability merits. Reference was made- yesterday morning to a vefdiot rendered in the D. S. circuit court in Boston, last Thursday, which was said to involve the collection of millions of dollars io roynlties annually, from canners of fruit, salmon, etc., in the United States for the use of a soldering iron. It seems however, that the salmon canners of (his coast, are not affected by the decision, as the tool is one that is nsed for soldering the circular piece ot tin, that one can find in the middle of the top of the cans of fruits and vegetables, that are sent here from the east The tops and bottoms of salmon cans are made of one piece, and they are soldered by rolling through a bath of melted sol der, which renders the application of a soldering iron unnecessary. A bloody fracas occurred last night about 9 o'clock, in China town, in which Nan Jue and Ho Ah Tung were the participants. It appears that the row commenced in a gambling den opposite the post office. Nan Jue left tha house and on reaching the street he was beat, kicked, knocked down and stabbed uy Ho Ah Tung and his crowd. The fuss attracted, in less timo than we write it, a hundred or more of their excited and jabbering countrymen, who followed the bellig erents in charge of police officer Beasly to the city jail, where Ho Ah Tung was left to cool off in a cell, while Nan Jue had his wounds and bruises dressed by the skilful hands ot Dr. Baker. Nan Jne is badly hurt, but his wounds are not so se rious as to endanger his life. Nap Jue belongs to the Suey Sing com pany, while Ho Ah Tung is of the Sung Shing company. Members ot these two rival companies had a cut ting Bcrape in Portand lately, tor which three of the latter are jailed. On inspection it has been ascer tained that the recent fire at C. H. Cooper's store did more damage than was tit first estimated. A very tri fling injury to first class goods, snob as compose the stock at this leading store, prevent their being offered for sale at the counters in the usual rou tine ot bnsinees. The underwriters, mindful we suppose of the narrow escape they had from a loss of many thousands of dollars, and desirous of making prompt settlement of the damage that has been sustained have instructed auctioneer E. C. Holden, to sell immediately at publio auction, all the goods that were damaged on the occasion referred to. As will be seen in our advertising columns an auction Bale wil be made at the va cant Empire store adjoining O. H. Cooper's, on to-morrow evening at 7 o'clock, and again on Tuesday eve ning. Home or tbe goods are so little damaged as not to be detected by the inexperienced eye, but all will be sold without any reserve, as the orders to sell are peremptory. See ad. The lost session ot the legislature, says the Statesman of tbe 2Sd, appro priated the sum ot 816,000 as an "in sane" fund, to be used for the con veying ot insane and idiotic persons from the county seats when they ere committed to the insane asylnm in this oity. Out of this fund 815,930. GO bad been expended for this pur pose yesterday morning, leaving only 363 40 in the state treasury that could be applied to this use. and the com mitment ot the insane tailor from Al bany yesterday reduced this balance to about 9V). When this amount is paid out, as it will be in a day ot two, most likely no more warrants can be drawn on the fund until the legiala turo make a new appropriation j so the sheriffs and guards that convey insane to the asylum will have to ac cept "deficiency certificates," payable after the new appropriation is made, as remuneration for their services. These "deficiency certificates" are generally accepted by banks at their face value, however, so the running short of the fund will work no par ticular hardship. Tho appropriation of S1C,000 for conveying convicts to the penitontiary has a balance of 82, 627.78 and will not becorao deficient Our Candidate for President. lie will be nominated by the conven tion and will be elected by flio people, becauso he will come tho nearest to fill ing their ideal of a Chief Magistrate.

It is Better to Keep Smallpox Away Than to be Compelled to Drire it Oat. The sohools in Portland report that all the pupils have been vaccinated, with the slight exception ot six or S6ven. The rule in regard to vacoi nation adopted by the school board has been carried out to the letter. All students who have not been vac cinated successfully in the past four years will not be allowed to enter school until such operation has been successfully performed. That is an important one of the many precau tions adopted in Portland to get rid of the disease after it was found to be prevalent in their 'midst. On tbe principle that "an ounce of preven tion is worth a pound of cure, would not similar precautions be a sensible thing to enforce in Astoria to keep the smallpox from making its appear ance here? The council have taken the precaution to have the pest house renovated and put in order under the supervision ot a competent physi cian, who will vaccinate free air who wish; but the matter should not be allowed to stop there. No reason able effort which is calculated to pre vent the spread ot the disease to this city should be spared. The authorities in Portland now show a commendable and earnest activity in devising and putting, in effective operation anti-smallpox or dinances and resolutions. The? would have shown more sense in that city if they had adopted their late sensible and vigorous measures at the start and had had everybody, old and young, vaccinated, instead of vac cinating the newspapers and attempt ting to covor up the disease by sitting down on it. The result was quite satisfactory for a while, so far as the newspapers were concerned. The disease went very light with most of them. The Oregonian had only a very light oase of varioloid, however, which seems to hang on a long time. The News, though, had a more serious attack and was badly broken out. Of course, knowledge ot the exist ence ot a dangerous or contagious disease in a city will keep visitors away who would otherwise come and spend their money in various -ways, but that does not justify anyone in concealing tbe existence ot the dis ease from those who may thus be come its victims. City authorities, who, knowing that vaccination is the. only sate plan for preventing the disease, presoribe stringent applications to keep people's mouths shut are guilty ot criminal malpractice. Just as soon as a cose ot small pox is "believed to exist, it should be sufficiently known to pre vent people from being exposeiL to it unawares. There has been no small pox in As toria this season, but its existence in Portland ha? reduced very muoh the travel down the river to this city. Yet it is generally conceded that-light travel and health is better, for the. city than heavy travel and a full pest bouse.

Treasury engages the attention of our Statesmen, but a more vital question has our attention, and that Is the reduc tion of the Surplus Consumptives. Since tho discovery and introduction of Dr. King's New Discovery, for ConsumpJ tton, tnere nas oeena marsea decrease in the mortality from this dreaded dis ease, and it Is possible to still further re duce the number of Consumptives. How ? By keeping constantly at hand a bottlo of Dr. King's New Discovery, and using according to directions, upon the appearance of. the first symptoms, such as a (touch, a Cold.-a-Sore Throat, a Chest or Side I'aln."
