The two unfortunate were brought to thia fitace and Dr. Rom attended to their njurle. They are now reeling eaay, wim prospect iot an cany recovery, Th Eiposmo. There I no que tion but that the Portland exposition thia year baa aurpaaeed any former effort The diaplay, aa a whole, haa been good, better in fact, than ever be foie. The attendance haa been good, owing, perhaps largely, to the reduc tion In the admission feea, the receipt reaching in one day the sum of 11800. There aeenia to be a general eipreation ol aatiifacilon with the expoaiiion and management thia year, from thoae who have attended, and the recoipt will be aeveral thouaand dollar in ex ea of expenditure, after the 110,000 guarantee by the bucineat men of Port land la paid back.

He w enlenced to pay a fine of (500. The finding of the jury were baaed on the ground that Auaplund wt the ag gressor in the fray and therefore waa guilty a charged. It I now, therefor possible that Dr. Holme will be in dicted for cairying concealed weapona. It will be remembered that both com- balianta were shot down and were confined in the hospital for some time, Dr. Ausplnnd's lile was diapaired of for some time, but now both of the gentlemen bave recovered.

Mo (oue was accused of lying outright, but statements were so flatly contradicted 'that the spectator could apply his own meaning to it. After a heated 'discussion, during which the history 'of the -Rock creek settlement from the beginning until the present, to gether with the depth of water at.ar fou places in Rook creek, the number of .feet and incbct.in each bridge and each approach, the depth of the can yon and the length of the puncheons wa sketched in most stoqueot terms, .the speeches were occasionally mingled with determined applause from the dress olrole. The claimant did not have it all their own way, however, for ,the two commissioner occasionally took a hand in which Mr. Sohoonover' "little book" played a part. .Commit sioner Frakea objected to allowing the bill for the reaton that he thought the road distriot should be taxed for the work instead of the county. Mr, Buhoonover voted to allow the ol alius, and Judge Blanqiar,d concurred with him. staling that since the work had been done it should be paid for, but admonished tfie roud supervisor to not build s,ny jr.ore nrhiRe in future that were ot au absolute neousbity V EIWOS Ait AND LOCAL, , 0.

From tbe San Francisco Call we take th following: Astoria, Oregon, a oity of 10, 000 Inhabitant 1 to liars Its first railroad ia a few months snd It will then bs con nect! at Portlsnd with fir of tbs princi pal Una of the Pacific Northwest. Th mouth of the Columbia rlvr, aftwtb coinplstlon of th enterprise, will be alive with deep water vessels, which, prevloas to tb dredging of th barbor, wr nnsble to land at Astoria. Tbe work of constructing the new line I In the bands of th Astoria and Columbia Klrsr Railroad Company, a corporation worth $2,000,000, under th presidency of A. B. Hammond, who Is now stepping at tbe Palace hotel, wbr be wa sesn by a Call reporter. "I anticipate that w willbeabt to finish tb road by next year," said Mr. Ham mond In speakiug of tbe line. "We hav already purchased sixteen miles of com plete road and w will mak our first con nection at Gobi, sixty mile fro us Astoria, as soon a posalbl. Sixteen more miles are now under contract and tbe rest will be let soon. Th reason that railroad ssrvic has not been had In Astoria before ia be cause the mouth of the Columbia river in too shallow to admit deep water ships. This year, however, the government has completed It dredging and the heaviest craft afloat can land at the Astoria Jetty at any time. Our Hn will connect at Port land with tb Union Pacific the Oregon Railway A Navigation Company, tbe Northern Pacific, th Southern Pacific aad the Great Northern, five principal line. W will pass through tb timber country of th banks of th river snd handls pas sengers ana freight along tb route, beside act aa th carrier of the produce of the en tire Northwest or Colombia basin, which Is ths natural point of embarkation for that section of th Pacific coast "It is a Strang thing that the third largest river In the United mates, with a city of 10,000 people at th mouth, should have been so long without a railroad, bat tb river bar, np to within a few months ago, was too shallow for deep water vessels, and they bave been compelled to go up th coast some distance and come inland by a long and circuitous route, which could be and will be shortened bv tb construction of our line. W bsv simply opened tbe logical point of entrance and exit, and the benefits to Astoria and that section of tbe country generally will be noticeable. "The Northwest Is extremely productive and the new outlet will have the effect of stimulating th Industrie to a greater ca pacity of work. We hav given employ men! to a large body of worklngtuen aud engineers, and in a short time other bene fits In the shape of employment to sailors, whsrfmen and seafaring men generally will be noticeable. From this on Improve ments of all kinds will be made In and around Astoria and th small towns along th line will be In communication with the principal cities. One of the greatest indus tries we hav la th timber business, and an immense region will donbtless be opened np for operations. Tbe boat of small draught that hav been plying on the Co lumbia river hare been of limited capacity in transporting the products of the country, but with the assistance of the new line it will be possible to ship a greater quantity of material than ever before. "I will lesve for Astoria shortly to push ths work, and by this time next year we will have things In such a shape that It will look a though the entire Columbia basin has taken a new lease of life that will be substantial." Mr. Hammond Is inclined to th belief that th building of the Astoria and Colum bia River railroad will be directly Instru mental in tbe growth of other lines, which will greatly add to th general prosperity of th Northwestern states. ; Who la to Blame? "The road on the east aide of Nehalem river, from Pittsburg south, as far as ths Fringle place, should be opened. The lumber for a 100 foot bridge the only one needed on the road was sawed by tbe Pittsburg Mill company and paid for by the county, last win ter. Had Ridgway been re-appointed supervisor this road would now be open for travel, and would be a great saving In time and distance, as ine road would be much better and dryer than the road up to Vernonia, through the hill." Sentinel, Sept. 26. If the lumber for that bridge was paid for by the county laat winter, why does not Mr. Schoonover, acting superintendent ol road and bridge for that cection of the county, see to it that the bridge it built? It i not usu ally customary to pay for bridge lum ber until it i used. How i it, neighbor, that thia lumber should be paid for in advance, aud who is lo blame for such proceeding? T.inna Potatoes. A. H. Blakea- ley brought into tbi office tbi week a potato which weigh six pouud. It ha the appearance of a clutter of nine nntaioe which have Brown together solidly, all of medium siie. Pbobati Mattirs. The greater part of the time of Judge Blanchard during Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thuraday ot this week was taken up in going over tbs acoounta of the ad ministrator of the estate of E. G. Bry ant, deceased. Dillard 4 Cole appear for the administrator and Allen A Cleeton for the heir. Like that of the Cherrineton estate the work i tediou aud aomewhat complicated. Mr. W. B. Meek, who resides at Camptonville,Cal , saya her daughter waa lor aeveral years trouoiea at limes with severe cramps in the stomach, and would be in snch agony that it was necessary to call in a physician. Having read about Chamberlain's Colio Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy she concluded to try it. She found that it always gave prompt relief. It waa sel dom neoesBary to give the seoond doee. "It has not only saved us lots of worry and time," ahe says, "but also doctor bill. It i my opinion mat every family should have a bottle of this remedy in the house."

Tbe shingle machine was taken out of the mill in town last Friday and placed in the Tiohenor mill, nearly two mile out, where there is th necessary power to make it go and two or three hundred or more cords of bolts ready cut and available for tbe nianu facture of shingles. It waa considered easier to move the machinery and cut the bolts there than to haul them to the mill here. A special meeting of the oity council was held Monday evening to listen to a proposi tion by Mr. Jones for supplying the city with water. The matter was freely talked over there, and on tbe streets since, but no definite actioa has been taken. Opinion is somewhat divided as to wnetner tne city should not build aud maintain its own water works. The source of the present Inade quate supply is considered ample if it could be secured ana larger pipes taia vo can re; tbe water, which is greatly needed for con sumers and for safety.

AU ad mit it was an excellent plea ana mat in prisoner was most ably defended, but can not remember the time when that condi tion of moisture prevailed that compelled the whole audience to use their coat sleeves and handkerchiefs to stay the briny tears from coursing down their cheeks. What danger the audience was in from a flood of tears, no one seemed to realize until the statement referred to appeared in the Chief, then all were aratelnl to think that tbe crisis bad paaed and danger was ovor.
