m Mu Mfoim ASTORIA. OREGON: WEDNESDAY .AUGUST 2S.1889. A process lias been invented by means of which photographs can be printed almost as fast as a newspaper and without dependence on sun and light They are said to be of the first quality. Chatocey Depew thinks the Paris exposition has saved the French re public by producing a wonderful re vival in the industries and allaying discontent by providing employment for the many idle. General Secretary Hayes of the Knights of Labor, declares the order is not disintegrating. He says the membership is a quarter of a million and the yearly receipts of the order amount to 350,000. The city of St. Petersburg, which does not count 1,000,000 inhabitants, consumes each day 10,000 bottles of wine, 1,500,000 quarts of beer and 1, 600,000 glasses of an alcohol known under the name of vodky. The four new states bring in an area about equal to that of all New England, New York, New Jersey, Pennyslvania, Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, West Virginia, Ohio, Ken tucky and Iudiana combined. It is an area three times as great as the British Isles. The London Economist, in discuss ing the prospect for money, looks for higher rates, and withdrawals of gold from England to Spain and South America. Instead of taking our gold, from this time on foreign countries will call on us for breadstuff's, petro lenm and cotton. One-tenth of the entire number of pensioners on the roll get but 82 a month, or cents a day or less; one half of the entire number get but 86 a month 20 cents a day or less, and two-thirds of all get S8 a month 26) cents a day or less. Soldiers who loBt limbs received but S8 a month for a long number of years, and yet to-day when they are growing old, and less capable of caring" for themselves and families, they only get 830, 836 and 815 a month. Says first assistant postmaster-general Clarksen: "I see that some of the New York papers state that there have been 10,000 changes made in the postoffices since the present adminis tration came into power, while others say that there have been 14.000 such changes. Neither statement is cor rect There have been just about 15, 000 changes made in postoffices. That is not the exact figure, but so near it that the difference one way or the other is not material. Of these 15, 000 changes one-third were brought about by resignation, and about 300 were made because of changes in the location of offices. "When postmast ers were keeping their offices in grog shops or in other questionable places, we have made new postmasters and have seen that they established them selves where ladies may go without any apprehension. In regard to presi dential offices our policy has been to allow the incumbents to serve four years, xmless there was a cause for their removal. Nearly all the changes in thatlass of postoffices were made after charges against the postmasters were received and reported upon by inspectors, who were detailed to look into them. The same number of changes 15,000 were made under the previous administration in a cor responding length of time." CAUSE) OP THJI What are you growling at, xlr!" "At the amount you are eating:, air!

The Mamanita came down yes terday afternoon and docked at the O. E. & N. coal bunkers. This after noon she goes to sea, with a lot of plunder, about 42 tons in all, of ma terial and supplies for the light house now building at Destruction Island. This business of lugging freight up and down the river, and the coast be longs to the engineer department and has no connection with the Manzan itcfs proper duties. The Manzanita is doing freight duty for the U. S. en gineer department, as the SJiubrick did before her, but there is an end to all things, and now that Commodore Griffin, the naval secretary of the light house board has been out here, there will be a change. The Astorian has it from head quarters that Com. Griffin realizes the" lo3s of- time and neglect of her own special work entailed upon the Manzanita, every season by this freight business, and Major Handbury and he have agreed that the U. S. en gineer department is to have a tender for itself bo soon as practicable. As in a good many other such im provements and additions The As torian takes a little credit to itself in aiding in this. Now if the gentlemen in authority will go a little "further and furnish a tender for the Alaskan coast to give the Manzanita a little time to tend to absolutely pressing business in sxipplying buoys to the Oregon coast harbors, they will be moving still further in the right direction. Overland From California, When the mail boat got down from Portland yesterday afternoon the at tention of the writer was attracted by the appearance or two covered wagons on the bow of the boat, and his inter est aroused by learning that the oc cupants had come overland from Cal ifornia to Portland, and theuce by steamer to Astoria. Fourteen more wagons are on the way from Califor nia and will also arrive. This is a new way or rather the revival of an old way to reach this northwest nook of our national domain, and if one is in no hurry, a very pleasant way. The two wagons and their occu pants rolled on last evening as far as Smith's Point, and the last seen of them they had gone into camp for the night, on that picturesque spot where meet the waters of Young's river and the Columbia. What a Porterhouse Steak Is. Very few people who sit down to a good breakfast of "porterhouse steak" could tell, were they asked, what part of a bullock this choice tidbit is cut from. The "porterhouse" is that por tion of the beef either side of the spine beginning where the ribs end and ex tending along to where the hip-bone begins. The tender-loin should form a part of the "porterhouse." This is a narrow strip of succulent and ten der flesh extending along and protect ing the inner sides of the spinal col umn. Its high price is due to its choice quality, and the fact that in the largest bullocks there are not above ten to twelve pounds of tender loins. The term "porterhouse" is of English derivation, and it has no equivalent in either the German or i rench language, while, on the other hand, tender-loin is known among the Germans as "lummel" and "fillet," by which latter name it is known among the Jb rench. The term "porterhouse probably originated from the inns -and eating-houses of England, also known as porter ana ale-nouses. A custom ary order was: "Give me a porter and steak,' and in tune the name "porterhouse" was probably given to the choice pieces of steak as dis tinguished from the more ordinary kinds.
