Hat iir Wabiuhcitoh.--Thetimoihy hay crop in this county will not be as good as some bad hoped and predicted white it was raining two weeks ago. A gentleman who i interested in grow ing hay made a trip from the eastern part of the county through the north ern part. He reports thai he saw no food meadows. Newly-seeded fields ere taken by noxious weeds, and the eame is true of old plats. Some of his own that was seeded last fall he has tiliiwed up again. The reason he gives for this state of things is the long dry print; followed by rather cold rains. Clover hay, however, is very heavy nd only needs fair weather for culling nd curing.

I was seriously afflicted with a cough tor several years, and last fall had a more severe cough than ever before. I have used many remedies without receiving much relief, and being reo ommeuded to try a bottle of Chamber lain's Cough Remedy, by a friend, who, knowing me to be a poor widow, gave it to me, I tried it, and with the most gratifying results. The first bot tle relieved roe very much, and the second bottle has absolutely cured me. I have not had as itood heahh for twenty years. .

The accounts in Tuesday'a Telegram and Wednesday's Oregonian of the railroad accident at Houlton Monday, which caused the death of Mr. Crosby, were erroneous. Mr. Crosby had re sided in this vicinity for several years. and it is believed that bla death was due entirely te an accident, instead of being premeditated suicide as reported in those papers. Warm weather continues over the Snake river country, while oompara tiely cool weather prevails over the Upper Columbia. The upper rivers have commenced to fall. It appears that the main body of snow has now been molted and all danger of higher watsr is passed. It cannot be stated with absolute accuracy that no further rise will occur, but such a conclusion is reasonable. The Canby camp meeting will be held July 1-11 this year.

Unless meteorological conditions take a sudden and decided change in the very near future seaside travel will be deferred very late into the season this year. Oidinarily at this season there are many sojourners at the dif ferent seaside resorts, but so far this year we believe there are compara tively none. But conditions may be suoh when the weather does change that people will be glad to seek the refreshing atmosphere of the sea-coast. The popular little steamer Young America has been making excellent time through the slough during the histh stave of the water. She arrives in Portland promptly at 10:30 each day, and on ber return quite frequently reaches this place before 0 : 80 in the afternoon. Captain good is seriously considering the advisability of leaving this place an hour later, in the morn ing, in which event a great deal of the travel that now goes by other boats would find it much more convenient to patronize the Young America. Word was circulated in this city a few days ago that it was very, likely that a contraot ior a large number of paving blocks would aoon be lot in Portland, and considerable hope was entertained that the blocks would be taken from the quarries in the vicinity of this place, in which event a crew of perhaps fifty men would be sent here. Tho contract, if let, would Call for 200,000 blocks, aad would require about four months' time te get them out. Should the statements prove true, and the men be put at work in our quarries, St. Helens would take on an increased business air this summer; Bauvie't inland and the farms along the slough have a peculiarly desolate and lonesome appearance. A great many of the farmers have been com pelled to remove their stock to the main-land whore their dairying oper ations are continued as best they can be under the circumstances. It is an unfortunate thing for those peo ple that it was necessary to again leave their furms on account of high water, this being the fourth succeeding year that the flood has driven them away. Crops have been ruined, barns, fences, and other property carried away or destroyed and other inconveniences arising make it a serious detriment to progress and prosperity. Bad management keeps more people iu poor circumstances than any other one cause. To be successful one must look ahead and plan ahead so that when a favorable opportunity presents itself he is ready to take advantage of it. A little forethought will also save much expense and valuable time. A prudtnt and careful man will keep a bottle of Chamberlain's Colio, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy in the house, the shiftless fellow will wait until necessity compels it and then ruin his best horse going for a doctor and have a big doctor bill to pay, bosides ; one pays out 25 cents, the other is out a hundred dollars, and then wonders why his neighbor is getting richer while he is getting poorer.

The occasion was a fra ternal visit from Orpheus looVe, of Portland, and it is needless to say that Avon s members enjoyed the presence oi the brothers. The visitors arrived at about 9 o'clock on Brother Bob In man's lsunoh Hoo-Hoo, and immedi ately went to the lodge room, wljere they witnessed the conferring of the first rank, after which speeches were listened to and chat indulged in while a committee prepared and took to th lodge a lunoli, which was appreciated by all. There were seventeen of the visitors, and the home lodge strained a point to maintain its reputation as au entertainer, and we believe the effort was blithly satisfactory. About 1 o'clock in the morning the visitors started on tuoir return home. The large raft of lumber built by the Inman, Poulson Mill Co., of Port land, was towed down the river on Wednesday morning, and is now well on its way to San Francisco. This raft was built as an experiment for cheap transportation for lumber from the Columbia to the California market, and if it proves successful it will be a novel and expedient departure in the lumber trade of the coast. The raft it said to contain 5,000,0000 feet of lum ber, and in appearance resembles a large, narrow, long house, without a roof. Nearly in the center of the raft is a little house constructed for Mr. Ionian's occupancy during the voy age, and immediately in front of the bouse is a nag staff, trom which floats the stars and stripes. The raft is said to be perfectly seaworthy, and without doubt will reach its destinatioa in safety. Dr. Ross returned last Sunday even ing from Carico valley, where he had been called the day before on a pro fessional visit. The doctor brought with him three strawberries : be larg est ones ever seen here. George Msy- ger said tbe three benies weighed 7 pounds, but facta disclosed later on provod that George unintentionally misrepresented the circumstances. The three berries weighed 71 ounces, the largest of tbe three weighing 3 ounces and measured 11 inches in circum ference. Of course they were large berries, but nothing very uncommon for Oregon to produce. The berries were raised on Mr. J. IS. Wilverdinc'e place, and Dr. lloss said the largest one of the three measured 12 inches in circumference before it was plucked from the vine. The annual meeting of the Colum bia County Sunday School Associa tion held in this city last week was largely attended aud great interest manifest. Delegates from nearly all the Sunday schools in the county were present, and tbe meeting is said to have had a wonderfully stimulating effect on Sunday school workers. The lectures were of the highest and most benefitting character, outlining the work of teacher, superintendent, and pupils. Thursday evening the meet ing closed with a sermon by Dr. Gue, which was a master effort. PERSONAL MENTION. Mrs. T. J. Cleeton wss In Portland Mon day.

The catch of salmon at this place during the present week has not been equaled tor several years. Fishermen are using three kinds of nets, and the results are proving entirely satisfactory. At lower river points catches of salmon are said to nowhere equal those at this place, and a great deal of the fish shipped from here are sent on to the canneries at Astoria. Some of the local fishermen are uslag large-mesh nets, but the majority of nets In use here are small mesh for catching bluebaoks, the number of which now being caught has not been equaled tinoe 1KM. It has not been an un common thing for boats to bring in from 100 to 200 bluebacks In one day, and on Tuesday Pan Richardson unloaded 240 bluebaoks, the result of one day's work. These flh average about live pounds each, and the fishermen receive 2)4 cents per pound. Some chlnook salmon are being taken from tht river, but they constitute only about one-third of the fish taken. However, thoy are very large fish, and are beautiful specimens of the royal ehinook. Mr. J. H. Sheldon, the local buyer and shipper, Is using every effort te convenience tbe fishermen, and their patronage to him shows their appreciation of his efforts to save them trouble and expense.
