The Astorian guarantees to its adver tisers the largest circulation of any newspa per published on the Columbia river. The pilot schooner went to sea yesterday. Oov. Moody Parties on Third street wanting per mits should secure them to-day. Nearly 3,000 people are enjoying the cool days and nights at the seashore. The Tidings reports C. B. Watson wielding a grubbing hoe on a ranch near Ashland. The tender oompany of No. One's cleared about S45 from their excursion to Ilwaco Sunday. Geo. "W. Moore has leased Liberty hall for one year and will open a variety theatre next week. County clerk Trenchard yesterday issued a matrimonial permit to Chas. F. Clough and'Carrie H. Signor. The nephew of councilman L Berg man will arrive here next Sunday and take charge of J. C. Clinton's store, which he recently purchased. A big lot of piles went down to Adair's creek on the O. K. yesterday for the Young's river bridge for the Astoria and South Coast railroad. Work is progressing on the road from Oluey toward the Nehalem. About a hundred days on that line will put the road well along toward com pletion. An effort will be made to get con gressman Hermann to deliver an ad dress at the meeting of the Oregon Press association at Newport next month. Four locomotives at Fort Stevens make lively times on the jetty. The good effects of the work even so far as progressed is already plainly no ticeable. On Sunday the body of the young man, Wm. Van Gundy, the waiter who was drowned at the Seaside while bathing was found near Tillamook Head and was given interment. Salem dealers have organized a "trust," and raised the price of cigar ettes to ten cents a package. The boys "prohibited" by law from smok ing them, get them just the same. The hardwood sawmill of J. C. Rounds, located near the mouth of the Santiam, in a big body of ash and maple, was burned last Thursday, with a larse quantitv of hardwood lumber, A doctor at The Dalle3 removed from the eye of a patient a strip of tin one inch loug and half as wide. Of course the eye was destroyed. The curious part of the story is that the tin was not discovered until six weeks after the accident. J. C. Trullinger has some fine pho tographic views of his camp and log rag railroad, life like and accurate; in one is seen the dust from the feet of the oxen as they draw the logs, in an other the splash as a huge log rolls down the skids and strikes the water, Five tons of salmon are said to have been caught by one man. a seiner, near Brookfield, one day last week. This is probably a little "exaggerated, but the seines have had the best of it this season all through. Many a gill net fishorman hasn't made his ex penses. Pat Killeu, heavy weight champion of the northwest, Prof. Anderson, of Chicago, and some lesser lights, will appear at Boss opera house next Fri day. KilJen is mighty handy with his fists and will give anybody in Astoria S100 to stand ferninst him for four rounds. At their press meeting next month the long-suffering newspaper men at the webfoot commonwealth will dis cuss the question of "foreign adver tising." The customary resolutions will, doubtless, be adopted. Such resolutions are like fainting ladies they need carrying out. Manager J. P. Howe pays 30,000 for five years' lease of the new Mar quam grand opera house in Portland. The theater will be the same size as that of the new California in San Francisco. The front of the building will be eight stories, making it the highest building, outside of San Fran cisco, on the coast. Geo. Knudseu, Josef Fellman and Josef S. Wirsch have declared their intention to become citizens of the United States. The last two didn't renonuce all allegiance and fidelity to any foreign prince or potentate be cause princes don't potentate worth a pent where they came from, viz: the republic of Switzerland. The Oreyoniaii's Olympia corre spondent sajs: It is stated on good authority that the steamer Multno mah, now plying on the Columbia river has been purchased for 20,000 by the rort JBlakeley Mill company, and will be brought around to the Sound to ply between Seattle, Tacoma, Qlympia and KamilchQ. Affecting remarks from Dr. Garner: solemn strains of music; the dirge" of the dead march; a mournful train of sorrowing friends: a touching tribute to the memory of the dear departed: these were the features of the funeral of the late W. H. McKean last Sun day. "None knew him but to love him; none named him but to praise." "Send me a paper," is the daily re quest of twenty or more. The Astor ian sends about a hundred copies a week in this way to inquirers. Many who have come here from various places and are helping to subdue the wilderness got their first idea of help ing here in the work from seeing a copy of The Astorian in their old home. The town is full of people and rooms are at a premium. The old complaint still exists not enough houses. It is a paying investment, the building of houses, but a neg lected one. Several not over fastid ious people have solved the problem and occupy scows partitioned off, ranged along the upper and lower water front, at times a part of our "floating population." A Corvallis editor's wife, in writing from Yaquina Bay, says: "I stopped at the Yaquina hotel the first night, where I met a number of friends. You would have smiled to see how stately I walked into supper, with my train following me a train of children, 1 mean. My! how they did eat! It is always said that an editor's folks don't get much to eat, and the way those 'kids' got m you would have thought they hadn't had n square meal for a long time." Five passenger boats left here for Portland last Sunday evening, all within such short intervals that the first one, the Potter, was still visible from the heights above the city when the last one, the Telephone, with rushing prow and roaring wheel, went whizzing by. It was a pretty sight in the sunlight; those five fine steamers, multitudes of smaller steam crafts and myriads of sail boats, darting down the bay, the waterscape clothed in a rich, amethyst-colored light. The followiug order has been issued by the postmaster general and will in terest all: "Any postal card, or en velope, or any outside cover, or any thing which reflects injuriously upon the conduct, or is plainly calculated or intended to injure the feelings or re putation, of the person to whom it is directed or which threatens him, is unmailable. It is allowable for a per son to send a request to call and set tle, but anything further is liable to result in a heavy fine." There was a regatta at Shoalwater bay yesterday, and a special reporter was detailed to report the race: arriv ing at Oysterville yesterday noon he found that to be the sole object of discussien: there were seven entries, Abe Wing selling the poels: Lib Smith being the faverite: the plung ers got away in good shape at 3:30 p. jr.: the coach leaving at 5 made it impossible to wait to see the close of the race; the Gen. (Janby arrived back here at 850 last evening: about the time the race was finished. The United States fish commission, it is said, has played, the mischief with the food fish of California streams, as they have driven nearly all the original food fish out of the state. In place of these native fish. that WPrp savory eating, they have inr traduced catfish, that have hniltipliud rapullv and have devoured all the others, getting rid of the old families. They brought carp that is described as a "network of bones, and as taste less and unpalatable as sawdust, until the Sacramento and its trbutaries and adjacent marshes are literally alive with them." The last Oregon legislature enacted that a tax not to exceed two-tentlis of a mill be levied on all property, to raise a fund for the relief of indigent soldiers and sailors who served in the war with Mexico, in the rebelliou or any of the Indian wars of Oregon, Washington or Idaho, also for the widows or children of such. No ex soldier can be sent to the poor house without the consent of tho command er of the Grand Army Post. The aot also provides that the rsum of thirty dollars be allowed by the county to. pay fuueral expenses of veterans of any of the above wars. The American ship Tillie E. Star buck arrived iu yesterday, 123 days from New York, loaded. She is a fine looking vessel; a full description was given of her in The Astobian some years ago on her arrival, when she created considerable of a sensa tion, being the first full rigged iron ship complete ever launohed from an American ship yard. She is 1,931 tons burthen. Her towage and pilotaga from sea and back to sea again will be $550. She draws 20 feet She has 2,783 tons cargo, 80 of whioh is for Astoria. She will lighter over 800 tons here before attempting the in land trip. W. S. Sharp, superintendent of the Oakland electric light and motor company, while adjusting a'wire at the company's works last AVednesday morning, received a 600-volt shock. He fell to the floor unconscious. His eyes were glazed aud his heart's ac tion had ceased. He soon recovered, however. His hands were burned, but not badly. The current was of twenty ampers, and it was feeding a motor circuit. This powerful stream, of electricity was generated by an en gine running forty-horse power. Edi son, the inventor, recently offered $100 to the man who would subject himself to a 100-volt shock. The committee appointed by the association of fire adjusters to investi gate the water supply during the fire at Seattle on June 6th and the condi tion of the fire department prior to that time find that, "the city author ities are responsible, not only for an inadequate water supply, but for an undisciplined and inefficient fire de partment alack' of fire apparatus, and, finallyj for the destruction of the beautiful city of Seattle. Had the authorities given more time to the discharge of their official duties and a little less to their personal affairs they would have profited by the warn ings of underwriters and the appeals of the local press and Seattle would not to-day be in ashes.' The matter of paying S3.000 for that portion of laud necessary for the west ern extension of First street owned by J. C. Trullinger, comes up in the council to-night. The city needs a western outlet but whether it would be best to have it through First street or Second street is the question. Both streets should if possible be made pub lic thoroughfares, right through. Whether the purchase from Mr. Trull inger will insure an unobstructed street does not seem quite definite. The extension of Second street would. As a purchase, Mr. Trullinger's prof fer is a very cheap one for the city, but with the railroad and street rail way both with a right of way there, the rights of way for wheeled vehicles do not seem to be altogether clear. "I was surprised," said a sojourner in our city yesterday, "when taken to the top of the hill and showed Young's river, that magnificent coun try stretching to the south. I never supposed you had such a country to the south or such a river." It would pay the real estate men, and others to have some one or two whose sole busi ness it should be to show strangers around. Everybody is willing enough, but we are all so busy all the time, and "what is everybody's business is nobody's business," and so a hun dred time3 a day people are here who know little of our peninsula and its possibilities. A map is well enough, but a ten minutes walk or drive with some one who took the time would often be of mutual benefit in showing our surroundings to people who would appreciate it, but who stroll around our wooden streets and-go home unknowing the grand suburban sites within easy view.

Chief engineer B,arr, qf the Albany & Tillamook rauroau, is now in our county with a force of a dozen or more men, running a preliminary survey. Thev reached Monmouth Tuesday night, and are now working their way on down by way of Salt creek in the direction of Tillamook. As to whether they will make Dallas a point on the line we have not yet learned. President Stanley has been along with them for several days. Polk Co. Item ize)'. Boils and pimples and other aft'optious arising from Impure blood inay appear at this seasoi, when the blood is heated. Hood's Sarsaparilla removes the cause of these troubles by purifying, vitalizing, and enriching the blood, and at the same time it gives strength to the whole sys tem. " (tonsil on TUe African Desert. The ohief delight of some newspa per people is to publish disgraceful and disagreeable things. We confeaa to having no taste in that direction. We only wish that all the mean, low, vile, and degraded human cattlo who tend to degrade others could be shipped to some African desert where their associations aud influence would be among those not much better than themselves. Polk Co. Itemizer. Their Business Booming;. Probably no one thing has caused such a ceneral revival of trade at J. "W. Conn's Drug Sto"ro as his giving away to their customers f so many free trial bottles of Dr. King's New Discovery for Consumption. Their trade is simply enormous in this very valuable article from the fact that it always cures and never disappoints. Coughs, Colds, Asthma, Bronchitis, Cioup, and all throat and lung diseases quickly cured. You can test it before buying by getting a trial bottle free, large size Si.
