During the early part of last Run

aurora borealis was visible in the

appeared in great shaft reaching fur

only to reappear at another point
witu renewed luster and brilliancy.

Norman Merrill ha been gathering
hi log together into a raft ready for
market. They have been in the tide
water since the spring Hoods, and there
seemed to be no haste in getting them

On the last day of July the post
office took it leave of the Nichols

them about three cents apiece by the
time the sugar is bought.
Henry McDonald paid our town a
visit from Winlock, Wash., spending
two or three days here. He finds thi
a very attractive place, both in its
natural surrounding and the genial
and gentle influence of a many of it
inhabitant a our young man care
to be drawn by. One of Clatskanie's
attraction is its young ladies, and if
after tho return of any of them find
ing a temporary residence elsewhere,
the town is honored by the presence
of some good looking young mail from
abroad, it is nothing more than might
be expected and is an evidence of the
young man's good judgment.
Jim Van had the assistance of
about a dozen boys Tuesday, iu trying
to secure a cow that was pasturing in
Bryant's meadow. When the cow
was trying to get away the boys pur
sued her valiantly but when she
turned they turned also. One of
them did succeed after a time, in get
ting a rope over her head, and as she
was being led out of the field a proud
but continuous procession of boys fol
lowed at a safe distance. Jim dis
persed the anseinbly by taking charge
of i ho animal and leading her out of
town.
A party of ladies and gentlemen
started out Monday to find Beaver
Fulls and spend some time trout fish
ing along the stream. After spending
a good portion of the day bunting the
falls they took the unfailing plan of
traveling up the stream until they
came to them. Tina occasionally nec
essitated wadiug the stream for which
the ladie were poorly prepared, but
all got there before the day was over
and report having had a splendid
time. The full are said to be well
worth a visit, and if one ia an expert
some trout can generally be caught
below them.
A very Interesting and enjoyable
children's exercise took the place of
the Sabbath school programme last
Sabbath .afternoon . But few days
had been spent in preparation, but
they had been woll soeut, so that the
children sang their songs and gave
their recitations with ease 'and ex
cellent effect. Mrs. Rev. Moor had
the training of the ol.-ildren and
thn success of the afternoon was due
to her tact and energy in managing
them. The exercises took a
missionary turn and about their close
a collection was taken up for missions
to which the friends preseut gave lib
eral response. In the evening Rev.
Moore preached his last discourse here
before attending the annual confer
ence of hi denomination. It i the
universal wish here that Rev. Moore
and wife may be returned to this cir
cuit for another year.

While talking about sawmills it may
be remarked thai Fisher & Lane Bros,

The Bryant estate lost a good horse
last week. While working in a team
of four horse it itepped into a hole
and hud its leg broken in addition to
other injuries severe euough to make
shooting a necessity.
Mr. and Mrs. John English and a
couple of friends darted out to the
Nehalem valley Tuesday morning to
spend a few day ramping along the
banks of that crystal stream, expect
ing to fish, bunt and enjoy themselves
generally.
A few friends drove out of town
last Sabbath in response to an invita
tion to talcs dinner together. It hap
p -n 'd that one buggy contained a
widow and a widower, a circumstance
not at all strange or improper, but
the report got out that this friendly
couple were to be married and the us
ual quiet of the Sabbath came near
being disturbed in an effort to find
out if such was the case. The move
ments of the preacher and justice
were carefully watched but the gen
eral opinion s that no wedding took
place thoutrh no one will bet very
heavily on the future.
Chaunce Wilson and John Palm
hav associated themselves together
in the construction of a sawmill now
being built near the Mouth of Clats
kanie. It takes considerable courage
to bulid a Sawmill Ibis summer but
these men seem to have it, gelling
ready for "the good time coming"
which Ihey probably imagine "is almost
here," and cheering themselves a
they assiit in lifting the frame timbers
to their place by whistling "In the
weet bye and bye," until now the
frame is nearly completed. Mr. Wil
son will supply a part at least, of the
machinery from his mill back of
Rainier, which will be abandoned for
the purpose.
The single broken plank In the ap
proaches to the bridge over the Clats
kunie, that ha been allowed to remain
several day in order to find out if the
institution belongs to the county or
city, has been replaced by a new plank
but your correspondent has not yet
learned who made the repairs. The
nexi, question for debate at Literary
Society might be stated as follows :
"Does the county lose control of one of
its bridges when said bridge falls in
side the limits of an incorporated
town or city t" The principals in the
debate will be : Affirm, W. J. Webber,
deny, A. M. Tichenor, each one hav
ing the privilege of naming his assist
ant. The notary public and justice
ol the peace are expected to look up
authorities to be able to advise in the
matter, if necessary. They might
also get a chance to act on the board
of judges to hear and decide on the
debate.
Readers of The Chief doubtless no
niced last week that the editor wishes
the public to understand when babies
were to be complimented on fine ap
pearance he baa one to enter for in
spection that he says is fed on Jersey
milk. The editor is correct. His baby
is a fine specimen of diminutive man
hood and there is no objection to his
claim that thn Jersey milk get the
credit for making the baby good look
ing, otherwise persons who have seen
the editor might question the state
ment. One thing in favor of the edi
tor's baby too, is that it was born on
the great "G. W's." birthday and is,
thwreforn, destined to be great, in
which rase its good looks will be of ad
vantage as it will make a prettier pict
ure in a i illustrated paper. . The
editor must remember, however, that
Ths Mist article waa complimenting
a pair of twin boys, and when it comes
to twins, the edil-r of The Cbiei is
"not in ii."

The President's messauje.
President Cleveland has submitted a mes
sage to congress which, if promptly acted
upon by that body will restore money mat
ters to their normal conditions and tend to
hasten tlie return oi better times. The
president deals exclusively with ths money

qualified demand for l ie repeal of the Sher
man stiver law wnicn lie cieany snows io

precipitated tlie present stingency. In fact
the president charges the existing panic
solely to that cause. He says what the
country wants I not politics but money, a
fact which the people fully appreciate and
a decision which wilt meet with the hearty
approval of tlie whole country. The docu
ment is distinct and dignified and free from
partisan elements, the whole tenor indica
lins: much interest in th orosDeritr of th
country generally and abetter state of mon
etary conuiuons in particular.
