The Albany Herald says that Brod erick, who was slain in the duel by David S. Terry, was the original pur chaser of Albany's hand engine, which is now for sale. He presented it to the city of San Francisco, from whom it was purchased by Albany. So it has a history. Hon. Dean Blanchard, of Earner, was in town yesterday. He has just finished a flume 16 miles long to his wharf, at a cost of "$2,300. It is two feet wide, and twenty inches deep, with an easy grade,- and three men can't keep it full of wood when the water is running. The members of the Chicago Comedy Co., which recently played here, got into a terrible row in the theater at Tacoma in which they were playing last Friday night, and banged each other about the stage and dressing room in an all-round contest that broke up the entire outfit "I notice," said a gentleman who had closed up his store at eight o'clock last evening, "that some of those who signed that agreement that was pub lished in The Astoriax Saturday, to close at eight, are still open."

At nine o'clock yesterday morning the fall session of school began in the two citv districts, and hundreds of bright faced, intelligent boys and girls took their seats.

Yon collect a dollar, or a dollar and a half, or $20 from a man, receipt the bill, start off, and biff, comes a chap with a bill; you pay him and he goes and pays it to somebody else, and so it goes. That's what the money is for, to pay debts with and keep things moving.

He had never been to sea, A storm ho had never seen." Those who go down to the sea in ships and see wonders in strange wa ters, have many startling adventures that are lots easier to read about than they are to go through. The good ship Manzanita, Richard son master, landed a lot of brick, lime, hoop poles, etc., at Destruction Island Friday night, and came steaming back to her home port the next day. At 1230 Sunday morning she was off Cape Hancock, and was under a slow bell, waiting for jocund day to stand tip toe on the misty mountain tops and give a little light to see the way in. Richardson, worn by his long vigil, was getting a cat nap, leaving instruc tions to be called at four o'clock. A few minutes before that unearthly hour first officer Gregory started to call him. Just then a cros.3 sea from the southwest struck the vessel already rolling in a rough northwest swell, and sent her clear over; she righted and rolled as far the other way; then back a third time; this last lurch pull ing out the smokestack's eyebolts, which had been driven through the deck floor and screwed up on the other side. Out they came, tearing up the deck, and over to port went the smokestack. As it fell it struck the main stays which, snapping off jerked the main topmast, which they were supporting, breaking that off. When the smokestack fell it settled back on the safety valve, squashing that. Out rushed the steam with a deafening noise. Out rushed the Chinese cook, clothed in one white night robe and his innocence and capered to the ex tremo bow and up the jack staff. Had the vessel been one hundred feet longer he would have run one hun dred feet farther. Out rushed the crew, and under orders immediately made sail. In a few minutes quiet was re stored, day began to break; engineer Lord fixed up the beiler: the cook came down thejackstaff amd made some coffee, the vessel was got under headway all right and came in in good time, presenting a funny ap pearance, looking like a rabbit with both ears gone as Bhe steamed up with a broken maintop and no smoke stack. Capt Richardson telegraphed" to Portland for instructions to repair, uuu win boou nave imngsiu suipsnape again. . COUSTrOURT PROCEEDINGS.

Strauss of this city, and got away with $190 worth of jewelry that has never been recovered. On the 18th of August, 1889, five years to a day, though but recently out of jail, he robbed the the store of I. S. Jones, at Oysterville, W. T., was jugged, and it being on the eve of court was promptly arraigned. Joe Pinschower, Mr. Strauss's right bower, happened to be in Oysterville on a business trip and spied Carlson. Carlson recognized "Joe, and plead guilty, supposing, of course, that Pinschower had given him away about the Astoria roloery. But he was mis taken, Joe had mentioned to a by stander that that man's face was strangely familiar but not till after Carlson was convicted did he say to Carlson's attorney, that that was the same fellow who robbed his brother-in-law's store in this city. After they had put Carlson in jail Pinschower went to him and said: "Carlson, where is that jewelry you stole from us five years ago?" "Safe enough," growled Carlson. "You'll never see it; lam going to do time now for three years: if it hadn't been for you being over here I'd got off, but as it is I had to plead guilty. But after I get out I'm going to lay for you, and I'll get even with you for this." Joe didn't care to bandy words with the fellow, but walked away, simply saying, "Don't try that on." It now appears that the Pacific county sheriff had intended to kill two stones with one bird, and having been elected to the Republican con vention which meets at Walla Walla to-morrow, thought he would keep his prisoner till he was going up and then take him up to the Walla Walla penitentiary, and then go over and help nominate the next governor and other officers of Washington. But Carlson fooled him. When the sheriff went to get him last Saturday afternoon, he found that empty was the jail, the bird had flown. Carlson had burned all round the lock on the door with red hot stove legs, and skipped to the hills, and- so far is at large. As for doing for Joe Pinschower, he'd do well to let that job out, for should he show up hero in any effort or attempt at revenge, he'll strike a different sort of a picnic from the Oys terville jail.
