'The Habeas Corpus" is the name of a Portland saloon, one block from the court house. A masked skating carnival and ball under the auspices of of the Astoria skating club, will take place New Year's eve. In Justice May's court yesterdy, Tim Cadigan was fined S15 for defac ing a building not his own. He went to jail in default Now is the time to look after chim neys and flues, and see that they aie all right A little care in this direc tion may save a fire. A telegram from Geo. McBride to county clerk Trenchard stales that it is probable the state tax levy will be made this week. A drop of printer's ink. falling like Heaven's dew upon a thought, will make a thousand think. That's where an advertisement gets in its work. A third paper is to be started in Pacific county. It is to be called The Sawmill, as the prospeclhe editor thinks it ought to furnish him board. It looked like snow for a little while yesterday morning, but at 1 p. m., compromised on a little rain shower. This is as fine a winter as last was. Tacoma and Seattle men, and Wash, people general!', are investing some of their good coin in Astoria realty, as the present most profitable form of investment Considerable literature regarding Astoria goes on the San Francisco steamer to-day, to be distributed by John E. Sheppard, commissioner of emigration. Some saloon bars nowadajs, have a little drag store attached as a sort of annex, and the bar keeper has fre quent calls for quinine, valerian, brom ide of potassium, carbonate of soda, and like. A prominent electrician says: "Where you see a big electric wire overhead, carrying a heavy current, there death is. There is no safety and no security in the presence of imper fect insulation." People arriving here, strangers, so journers, and returning Astorians, say that pverywheie they go people are talking Astoria. Wait till spring, if you want to here them talk Astoria. The present isn't a cirenmstauce. The Statesman says that the lead ing spirits of Salem are hot on the question of raihoad connections with Astoria. Thev propose to start with a capital of $200,000 and to call it the Salem, Astoria & Eastern railway. They had a big b mquet up at Spo kane Falls the other night: The re porter who attended it, concluded with the candid admission that, "It is not distinctly remembered by anybody present who made the last speech." There is a tiemendous amount of sturgeon being caught in the Colum bia river at present. It is all shipped east, where it will be nicely prepared, and sent back to us one of these fine da)s, neatlv labelled as "boneless cod fislL" The Rescue club purchased a fine cabinet grand piano furnished in wal nut burl, of Prof. Francis yesterday, it is a brilliant and powerful instrument and will prove a great attraction and benefit to the musical part of the pro grammes given eich Saturday evening- " The Albany and Astoria Railway company has" paid out 810,000 for the location and survey of the route from Albany to Astoria, and nearly as much more for a plant, with which 3,000 men will be employed early in the spring. The capital stock of the com pany is $2,000,000. The widow of Captain Christopher son, who Tf as drowned off Humboldt bar, on November 16th, by the cap sizing of the schooner Fidelity, has sued the owners of the tug Hrinter to recover damages placed at $25,000. She alleges carelessness on the part of the master of the tug. A man rushed into The Astorian office last evening and breathlessly announced a big firo on the roadway toward' upper Astoria, which he had seen from the hill. Investigation showed that it was the flames in the fiery pit of the Clatsop Mill Co.'s saw dust tank, where the fuel diethnot, and the fire never goeth out, that had burst upon his affrighted gaze. There are probably more news papers bought in Astoria, than in any other city of its size in the United States. Besides the city press there are a great many Oregon ians taken. The number of San Francisco papers read is also veryjlarge, while thousands of eastern papers and magazines are circulated. The number of foreign papers taken is aleo surprisingly sur prisingly large. Astorians are a read ing people. Prominent among the Salem sub scriptions to the capital stock of the Salem, Astoria & Eastern Raihoad Co., is one of 81,000 by the Salem Statesman, a newspaper that has ren dered great aid in stirring Salemites up to a realization of the advantages to be derived from the road. That is the way with a live newspaper. It doesn't hang back, or wait for a sub sidy; it stands in and by good and substantial coin, aids all worthy meas ures. G. B. Hegardt, superintendent of the government works at the mouth of the Columbia, was up from Port Ste vens yesterday and informed an Asto .bian reporter that after this week, no more rock would be hauled for the jetty ibis season. All work on the V jetty proper will cease for the present. A new 81,400 hydraulic pile driver, and 15 cara costing 8500 each would be built and the track laid new so as the work could be ready early next season. M. Herrick says that you can't talk salmon in San Francisco any more. It is all Astoria real estate. As soon as they find that a man is from Asto ria, they chase him up in a corner, and pull a copy of Tiie Astokian- on him, and want to know all about this addi tion, and that addition, and if it isn't a good buy, and what are the chances for getting in. Well that's all right Time was when all an Astorian could talk in San Francisco, was salmon, and he couldn't always talk that Portland detectives are much exer cised over a peculiar discovery. In the lower portion of the city, some children, while out playing, found a human ear lying on the sidewalk. Subsequently it was taken to the police headquarters." An examination showed that the organ had been sev ered from the head only a short time prior to the discovery. The ear be longed to a man. How it came there is a mystery, which the detectives are endeavoring to solve. "Whether a murder has been committed or a fight has taken place, in which the ear was slashed off, or some joke practiced by medical students is a question. There are but three classes of men in every community, the retrograde, the stationary, and the progressive. The first two have little or no regard for the newspaper and its influence and read it simply to see ''what is going on," but who could fold their arms and see it die with the utmost complacency, leaving the progressive class the only real sufferers. The ret rograde and stationary classes of every community are generally the critics of the newspapers, and, as Steel says: 'Of all mortals a critic is the silliest; for by inuring himself to examine everything, whether of consequence or not, he never looks upon anything but with a design of passing sentence upon it." The lesson of the approaching Christmas holiday is the lesson of the hour to be studied, remembered and laid away in the storehouse of the heart Happy is the man who has the means and the will to give. There are many little charities that call at tentionmany acts of benevolence, trivial in themselves, but a world of advantage to other souls than yours, whose hands are held out in silent pleadings for assistance. The tears can bo wiped from eyes that will cause angel hands to pass soothingly over your brow in distressful hours. Lips can be made to smile whose laughter will re-echo in years to come, when the memory of your acts shall have passed away from your thoughts like a tale that is told.

The Citizens Rising to the Occasion. Mr. Frank E. Habersham, who was in the city yesterday, report that work is progressing favorably on the Astoria and South Coast railroad. There are altogether about 800 men employed on the road. The grade is complete to the Seaside, and five miles is graded on the main line at Ulatsop and twelve miles out of Hills boro. The track is laid from Skip anon out to Carnahan's a distance of eight miles. The bridge across the bay at the mouth of Young's river is about half completed, and work is being pushed with vigor at every point Every man who comes up from As toria has his pockets full of maps of additions to the town, and other real estate, and it may be remarked that although it has required Astoria some time to get started in the race of prog ress, her citizens rise to the occasion, with great vim and vigor, and when it comes to setting forth the many ad vantages of "the only sea port," they need no instructions from Tacoma, Los Angeles, Seattle, Spokane Falls, nor any other place. Some of them would charm the money out of the pockets of a bronze statue, and make a man believe that the sun rises off the mouth of the Columbia, and the first place kissed by its morning beams is the heights back of Astoria.
