The Astors liave recently added five miles to tlieir already numerous holdings- Db. Ta2xek the faster, contends that Edgar A.Poe, -was buried alive. He says that the poet -was subject to catalepsy or trance fits. Some one in New York state has sent Bismarck a barrel of ne mellow pip pins. Bismarck -will not reject the pip pins as he did the pork. KrcnuiD He-bt. Stoddabd informs us that he can -write as -well -with his left hand as -with his right This is not saying much for the left hand. A bbcent visit to the libraiy of Dr. Oliver Wendell Homes says that the books in it that appeared to be most frequently consulted were a bible and a copy of Shakespeare. Tun only negro in this house of rep resentatives -will be H. P. Cheatham, from the second North Carolina dis trict He is thirty-two years old, and is a prominent man in his community. The king of the Netherlands is fighting death inch by inch. The cliief evidences of his state are the queen's drives; -when she goes out he Is better, when she keeps in the palace he is worse. Navigation on the Nelialem. Thursday afternoon two of Cooper's surveyors named Henry Ford and C. F. Caldwell living at Mishawaka started to go home, intending to make the trip in a boat upon the raging Nelialem rather than face the terrors of a fearful muildy road. They built a good sized boat, andplaceing their baggage aboard, cast off the stern line and were at tbiunercy of the waves. They ran the rapids at tho mouth of Rock creek in safety, suffering no damage beyond shipping a few seas, .and ran down to Port Adams. Here is-wheretheir trouble began. ing to get the vessel over the bar, or ratuer under tue foot log, a heavy sea struck her on the port bow and she careened so far to leeward that she filled and sank. Her captain was thrown into the wet, but with the aid of a life preserver managed to swiro.'to the beach. All of the crew were saved and he went to the house of hospitable T.L.Adams to dry out. The cargo was a total loss; no insurance. Vessel now lie3 at the bottom of the bay. Such.are the dangers of navigation on the Nelialem. Nelialem Journal, 17. The Nelialem Coal Field. Geo. "W. Baker, who has the con tract to run the prospect drift on tho Walker coal claim on Pebble creek, was in town Thursday, and stated that work on the tunnel had been sus pended for a time, owing to the ab sence of Mr. Tuppor; upon the arrival of that gentleman from Gaston the work will be resumed and the prospect pushed ahead as rapidly as possible. The quality of tht coal found at a dnptli of nine feet is much better than heretofore procured, and it will be surprising if the desired assay (45 per cent, fixed carbon) cannot be obtained in niuch less than 100 feet of tunneL Mr. Tapper is expected in a day or two. Liter. Since writing the foregoiag it is learned that word has been re ceived from Mr. Tupper, and that work has been started up. NcJiaJem Journal, 17. The Correct Visiting Card. The preferred visiting card just now for the married lady is rather large, not quite square, very stiff and dead white. Your oldest daughter is Miss Black, your second one Miss Virginia Black, and your sons always preface Mr. before their Christian names after they pass the egotistical age of 1G. These seem like small matters to people who are absorbed in the big things of this world to the en tire exclusion of the small courtesies, but as everything in being is judged a little by the card, certainly care should be taken to make it cor rect A vulgar card will impress a woman with the fact that there is a strain of vulgarity in you, and she may not care to make an acquaintance that might mean a great deal to you, and all because you did not think it worth while to notice the little things of life. A Gallant Rescup. Last Saturday night Otto Hall and Robert Hawkins started from Hwaco for Astoria in a fishing boat, and after pulling round the head of Sand Island they found the east wind and ebb tide so strong that they drifted out over the bar. Capt. Al Harris and the life crew saw the boat drift out about dark and they went to the rescue, and after pulling around between four and five hour?, found the boys about 11 o'clock, almost numb with cold. The' were taken to Hwaco and were loud in their praise; of Capt. Al Harris and his gallant crew for saving them from a watery grave. Klcofric Bsltcre.
