Co. has chartered the steamer Lahne to ;o on the Paget sound route with the Michigan and Idaho. The British Jjark Lady Elizabeth, G, C. Knrron, master, 29 days from San I:?qo, in ballast arrived last evening. the Manzanita is being put in ship snipe again. It is expected she will be reajy for business again by Monday. Yesterday morning a fifty yard foot race for 5 a side took place between Ed. Ohler and Chas. Daval, and was won by Ohler. The Seaside is pretty well deserted now; there is a large party enjoying lifo at Elk creek, in this, the pleasantest season of the 3'ear. Tho Albatross coaled at Kinney's dook yesterday. A large number of Astorians nave visited tho vessel. She will proba bly go south to-day. The Oregon arrived from San Fran' Cisco yesterday thirty hours behind time, caused by heavy thick fogs. She brought 35 tons f reightfor this port. Andrew Carlson, the sentenced convict who broke jail at Oysterville a week ago, was heard from near Ilwaco last Wednes day. He will probably bo captured be fore long. Messrs. ltobb and Parker yesterday sold the following property in block 11, East Asteria: H. G. Lord two lots, M. J. ltickards, two lots, Win. Richards, Maud Gnipon, one lot. J. C. Epjerley came up from tho sea side yesterday, where he has been in chargo of the house during the soason. He laments tho loss of a valuable dog just before starting yesterday, the poor brnte getting nnder the wheel, which broke its leg. Some ghoulr. who disgrace tho form of huiuanit3' recently desecrated tho vault in tho hillside cemetery in which lie the remains of Judge Elliott's sister, and her husband, by breaking into it and breaking open one of the metallic ooflins, for what purpose is unknown. Mrs. Duniway is going to canvass the new state of Washington in favor of the nrticle providing for woman suffrage, and which will be voted on separately. She may find some new recruits, but a good many of her old time adherents have changed their views and will oppose tho measure. Sheriff Kelloy, of Multnomah county is an economical man. He declines to take down the gallows on which Chee Gong was recently executed, saying that "it may bo wanted again this fall," and it doesn't pay to build another so soon, when the old one would do just as well. This is a gentle hint to Sandy Olds. An insurance agent was in town yester day, and paid the executor of tho estate of F. It. Coggeshall $5,0 insurance, which the deceased gentleman had upon his life. The agent called at The Asto bian office to get all the details of the sad occurrence and made a verified copy of the report as published at the time. The Lady ElizabeUi, which arrived in yesterday afternoon, had a very unusual flag, one representing three legs. The ship is evidently owned, operated, or officered by Manxmen, or natives of the Isle of Man, for that is the Manx flag. It isn't allowed to enter an English port With that flag similarly displayed, but this is a different country, and a man can do as he pleases, if he doesn't inter fere with another man's right to do as he pleases. At the close of the first week of the sohool term in district No. One, last evening, there were 310 pupils enrelled: in Prof. Pratt's room, 18: in Miss Bad ollett's room, 23: in Miss McCormick's room, 40i in Miss Powell's room, 50: in Miss Loving's room, 40: in Miss Carna han'sroom, 50; in Mrs. Busey's room, 87. In tho last room but half day ses sions are held, on account of the large number: that is half attend in the morn ing and half in the afternoon. Yesterday afternoon a little boy be longing to Mrs. Birdsy, the dressmaker, fell overboard from the sidewalk between Dr. Fulton's office and the salvation army barracks. Nobody saw tho child go overboard but Mrs. F. H. Surprenant, who luckily happened to be passing at the time. She saw the feet and dress of the child sticking out of the water. She immediately called for assistance and the child was rescued more dead than alive. "It was brought to by Dr. Fulton. It was a very narrow escape. Reference to our dispatches shows that The Daily Astohun of April 14th, 1889 was right when it stated that Oapt. Casey, of the Fiery Cross and Capt. Smith, of the Hornby Castle had made a S500 wager on which ship should ar rive home first. The statement was de nied, but it was true just the same. The two vesels sailed for Queenstown, "April 16th, and the Fiery Cross has won tho raoe. That ship has a reoord of 104 days from Queenstown to Astoria, and the Hornby Castle a record of 5G days from Liverpool to Sydney, N. S. W. The agents of the Pacifio Coast Steam ship company have received a telegram that the $50,000 in treasure whioh was on the wrecked ,4ncon had been recovered and forwarded to San Francisco by the steamer Mexico. It is now confidently believed that the greater portion, if not all, of the cargo of salmon will be saved. The Ancon will be replaced by the steamer Corona. The Ancon had loaded 2,460 cases of salmon at Loring just be fore tfe struck. She then had on 15, D00 cases salmon and 200 barrels salmon bellies. J. H. Johansen starts for the scene of the wreck this morning in the interest of D.Morgan, Hugh Murray, and the Aberdeen .Packing Co., who had about 4,500 cases salmon aboard the vessel. 'W-h-h-o-o-e-e-o!!! ka goi!!" ,said a Chinaman yesterday on coming into The Astobian office and catching sight of the Chinese pheasant on tho reporter's desk. And going over to it ho patted the bird in an ecstacy of delight as one who mot an old acquaintance. "You savey.him, John?,' he was asked. "Oh, yes,", he said, "me hoap savoy him. I see him often in my country. We call them ka goi." And he went on to tell that they valued those birds for their tails; that they cut off their long tails for orna ments. ',How do tho birds feel about it?" was asked. "Oh," said John, "they don't care, The tails grow out again as long as ever. Sometimes we catckee same bird, cut tail off two, three times." While at Trullinger's logging camp last Thursday, four ponderous tjnnks wound their snake like way along the greased skid road, drawn by patient oxen. The massive lengths looked immovable, and when the eight yoke of oxen halted it looked as if a locomotive hitched to those stupendously heavy trees couldn't budge them again. But the driver made a few remarks to the animals, and pres ently they humped themselves, then stretched ou(, and on moved tho proces sion. The writer thought as ho saw the tremendous trunks go by, making the ground tremble as they passed, that whether it is men building up a city, or oxen pulling logs, a good deal of wonder ful result can be brought about by "pull ing together." PERSONAL MENTION. Senator Mitchell is ill with malaria at Portland. Abe Markham and Lindsey Stone are in the city. Wm. Larsen and wife go on a visit to Spokane Falls. Sheriff Smith returned from the Sea side yesterday. Mrs. Jackson, nee Smith, is visiting at Mrs. C. J. Trenohard's. . Messrs. Foster and Cadigan returned yesterday on the Oregon. M. C. Oronby returned from San Fran cisco on the Oregon yesterday. Joe Russel returned from British Co lumbia, and the Sound yesterday. Mrs. Brey, of Salem, came down yes terday on a visit to her sister Mrs. Boel ling. Mrs. W. J. Barry and Mrs. C. W. Stone returned from a trip to Portland last evening. Jos. Holladav, the owner of the Sea side property, went down there yesterday morning. I. Bergman returned yesterday from a hunting trip to Gray's riyer. He brought back with him a brace of grouse and a pole cat, which ho claims he shot. W. L. Holmes, a young gentleman from Old England, has accepted the position made vacant by the resignation of Charles Davis at the O. R. & N. Co.'s dock. RIaze at the Astoria Iron works. Clang, clang, clang, went the fire alarm bell at 5 o'olook yesterday afternoon. A thousand people rushed into the streets,' "Where's the fire?" A brisk breeze from the west lent interest to the inquiry. "The Astoria Iron workg is on fire," was the ory. In an incredibly short time tho department was on the ground and at work, Rescues on Kinneys dook, and the Amoskeag on tho dock north of the works. Great volumes of red flame shot up from the cupola, which was full of molten metal, and from the roof ad jacent. For a minute it looked bad for that end of town, and for any end if the wind kept on, but with a ringing cheer the boys got to work, Twos inside, Ones on the roof, a third stream in the center, and in another minute the fire was un der subjection. It was that minute that saved the building, and probably a great deal more. The Astobian has got so used, through the years, to chronicling tho brilliant work of the department that it some times sounds a little old to write of the quick work displayed, but the Astoria fire department never did much livelier or better work than at the fire yesterday afternoon. The loss was $650, as follews: patterns, 450; roof $150; castings, $50. Supt. Fox, on the part of the. company desires to express- his sincere thanks to the fire department, and feels that to their efforts is due the saving of the building. He had two inch hose all over the building, and water was turned on as soon as the fire started in the roof, but the connections blew out. Later in the evening chief engineer Weeks was handed a substantial token of appreciation in the shape of a check for $150, signed "J. G. Hustler, secretary and treasurer," in grateful recognition of the services of the Astoria fire depart ment. Weeks will divide the $150 be tween the three companies, giving them caoh $50, and on behalf of the depart ment desires to express sincere apprecia tion of the liberality so generously evinced.

THE AMERICAN PLAG Will Ploat Prom Federal Buildings. And It Should Float From Many Others. Forever float that standard sheet. Where breathes the foe but falls before us. With Freedom's soil beneath our feet, ' And Freedom's banner streaming o'er us ! Tho newspaper idea to hoist tho stars and stripes upon every federal building in the nation has triumphed. Had not a most extraordinary amount of business occupied the lime of secretary of tho treasury Windom, an order would have been issued last Monday directing col lectors, postmasters and custodians of government edifices throughout the coun try to fly the old flag during the hours of business. Such an edict will probably be promulgated next Monday. Secretary Windom says. "I have reached a decision in the mat ter, and have concluded to order the flags up. Investigation warrants me in doing so. Not only is the oustom a patriotic one, but I find on consulting the treasury regulations that a rule exists requiring the stars and stripes to float daily from the government buildings. I have been so overburdened with busi ness recently that I have had no oppor tunity to promulgate the formal order. If I can possibly get at it on Monday it will be prepared." "As you are aware, tho old flag is daily flung to the breeze from the buildings here, and I see no reason why, especially since the regulations require it, that it should not float from every structure owned by th United States. The press is entitled to great credit for its persist ent and patnotio crusade, and I only regret that I have been unable before to afford tho attention to it that it de served." Assistant secretary Batcheller, who won his spurs fighting for the stars and stripes, expressed himself extremely de lighted at the order about to bo an nounced. "The secretary as well as my self has all along been in favor of tho idea," said he. "Not only the govern ment buildinga, but every jjtato and mu nicipal structure should have a flag, and it should be hauled up daily. The cus tom I see is becoming exceedingly popu lar among the schools. Every bunding in which the young idea is taught how to shoot, should sport a star spangle ban ner. It teaches a lesson of liberty, of patriotism, of devotion to country, as no other efnblein can. The-press has my heartiest congratulations upon tho suc cess it has achieved." SPEED OF FISHES. The Slow an4 The Fast Water Dwellers, The speed of fishes is almost an un known quantity, being, as the professor says, very difficult to measure. "If you could get a fish," said the professor, "and put him in a trough of water 1,CC0 feet long and start him at ono end and make him swim to the other without stopping, the information could be easily obtained; but fish are unintelligent and they won't do this. Estimates of tho speed of fish, consequently, are only ap proximated, and are, more or less founded on guessing. You can tell, however, at a glance, whether a fish is built for speed or not. A fast fish looks trim and pointed, like a yacht. Its head is oonical shaped, and its fins fit down close to its body, like a knife blade into its handle. Fish with large heads, bigger than their bodies, and with short, stubby fins, are built for slow motion." "What are the fastest fishes?" "The predatory fish, those which live on prey, are the fastest swimmers. The food fishes are generally among the slowest, ana are consequently easily cap tured. Their loss is recompensed, how ever, by the natural law whioh makes them very prolific in reproduction. Dol phins have been known to swim around an ocean steamer, and it is quite safe to say that their speed is twenty miles an hour, but it may be twice as much. The bonito is a fast swimming fish. Just what its speed is I do not know. The head of the goose fish is very large twenty times as big as its body. It moves about very .little, and swims at the bottom of the ocean. The Spanish mackerel is one of the fastest of tho food fishes. Its body is cons shaped and qs smooth as burnished metal. Its speed is as matchless as tho dolphin, and in motion it outs the water like a yaoht." A Good Wild Cat Story. About the best wild cat story we have heard for some time was told by J. C. Trullinger, coming back from his log ging camp last Thursday evening. "I have," said he, "a man working for me, who some time ago worked for Jack Miller, at Smith's Point. One evening the mpn saw a wild Cat and sprang for his gun. When he came out the wild cat had got up a tree, a bare trunk, and was clinging there. The man thought, 'now I'll climb up, catoh the cat by the hind feet, slide down and as I strike the ground I'll fetch Mr. cat a whirl and dash bis head against the tree.' "I don't know what the cat thought, but anyhow tho man climbed up the tree and just as be grabbed tho cat by the hind legs, it let go all holds, swung around and buried its teeth in his shoul der. "He slid down with the wild cat a tear ing away at him, and then began a rough and tumble fight between him and the cat. At last, after the varmint had pret ty near tore all the clothes off the man and chawed up his shoulder and arm, he managed to get his hands around its throat and choked it to death." About two weeks after he was able to ait up in bed and get the bandages off his arm, but the next time ho -taakles a wild cat it won't be up a tree." A. Woman's Discovery. "Another wonderful discovery has .been made and that too by a lady in tnis county. .Disease iastenea its ciutcn es upon her and for seven years she withstood its severest tests, but her vi tal organs were undermined and death seemed imminent For three months she coughed incessantljr and could not sleep. She bought of us a bottle of Dr, King's New- Discovery for Consump tion and was so much relieved on tak ing first dose that she slept all night audwithone bottle has been miracu lously cured. Her name is Mrs. Luther Lutz." Thus write W C. Herrick & Co.. of Shelbyville, N. C., Get a free trial bottle at .1. W. Conn's Drug Store. Wcinliarti's Beer.

ClilireaCryftrPitcler'sCastoria HE BELIEVES IN PROTECTION NOW, At Least So Far As Labor is Concerned. "I am going to the Sacramento river," said a fisherman at the close of the sea son on tho river about five weeks -ao. "I will get ninety cents for salmon there." A good many Columbia river fishermen started for the Sacramento at tho same time, with the same expectation. Several of them returned on tho Oregon yesterday. "Well, how did you mako it?" asked an Astobian reporter of ono of those who returned. "We didn't make it at all," was tho answer. "I tell you I am a convert to tho doctrine of protectien: of protection to labor at least. "When wo "went down to tho Sacra nienfcrthis time the two canneries, one at Black Diamond, ono at Benicia, were willing enough at first to take us Colum bia river fishermen. Tho first day -we were to get four cents a peund: the sec ond day, fifty cents apiece: the third day twenty-five cents apiece: the fourth day we got seup: we were boycotted. The canners didn't want us, the Sacramento fishermen didn't want ns. Th fish nnmo ia. in great numbers 200 to tho boat; mere was notmng tor us to uo. ''Tho fishermen down there kicked; said we had no business there: went to the canners: the canners stood in with them. Now I believe when those fel lows come up here next spring we ought to give them a dose of their own medi cine. I think protection is a good thing: we ought to have fewer boats on the Co lumbia next season, and give the pre ference to residents of Oregon." "Weak and weary" describes tho con dition of many people debilitated by the' warm weather, by disease or overwork.

The Road Passes Through a Fine Country. District attorney H. H. Howitt re turned yesterday from Tillamook, where ho has been attending tho regular term of circuit court held there by Judgo Boise. In going down he passed over tho sur veyed lino of the Albany and Astoria railway for a considerable distance. The road runs through q comparatively level country, which Mr, Hewitt says is one of tho riahest portions of Ore gon, Tho pasa through the ooast rqpge of mountains is hardly entitled to the name of a mountain pass, it is so low, being about 300 feet above the alti tude of Albany. The surveyors are now at work on Three Rivers, which is 10 miles beyond the toll-gate on Fuqua's toll road, and is 13 miles beyond Litchfield's store on the Grand Ronde Indian reservation. The people along the route of the proposed road are most favorably inclined toward tho pro $eot and no trouble will be encountered in securing the right of way. Land along the route has already advanced perceptibly in consequence of the rail road work. Albany Herald, 5. STARTLING EVIDENCE Or the Cure or Skin Diseases when all other Methods Fail.

It covered my ontiro body, my face, head, and shoulders being tho worst. Tho whito scab3 fell constantly from my heafl, shoulders, and arms : the skin would thicken and bo red and very itchy, and would crack and bleed if scratched. After spending many hundreds of dollars, 1 was pronounced incu rable. I hoard of tho Cuticura Remedies, and aftor usiDg two bottles Cuticura Resolv ent.
