The contract wai signed, sealed and delivered yesterday af ternoon in that city. It was sigued by C. W. Schfleld and George (loss, who are to construct tbe road, and by Messrs. Taylor, Dement and Win gate, tbe trustees fur tbe city in the matter of the subsidy. Work, according to Mr. Schofleld will be commenced within ten days. The road is to run through the Nebalein valley and fur nish transcontinental connections with As toria. The builders are to receive $300,000 in cash as a subsidy, after the first eDgine has mo over tbe line, aud it baa been accepted by the trustees. Besides this $300,000 there are other considerations. Astoria Is to furnish the terminal grounds an I secure right of way through tbe city or inch por tion of it as is needed. MONKY WAITS UNTIL DONE. The money is not to be delivered until tbe road is in operation. It was tbongbt tbat it would be turned over in quarterly or other payments, but this is not now tbe case, The road is to run from Astoria as said to a transcontinental connection. This does not mean tbat it is coming to Portland, or that it will run to Salt Lake City and connect with the Ilio Grande Western road. It will probably run to some point on tbe South Pacifio. HilUboro is tho most likely point, bnt as surveys have not yet beeu run tbat is not known i i i YASllNUTON1 March 10.

Mis Orace Morehouse a rather nleasunt lined inn, about Hi years of sue. was arrest ed here today on a bench warrant issued by the circuit court iuden at Euueiie. The girl is accused of implication in the steal ing 01 watch with one IHiticlus Sellers. Over a year ago Grace Morehouse, Ella lauuer aud Maggie Walton wero arrested on a charge of robbing a mail in a hack, in dicted, mid each sentenced to tbe peniten tiary (or one year Subsequently these three girls were turned over to the caio aud custody of the Boy's and girl's Aid Society. Miss Morehouse was sent to Eugeue wheie ber mother resides, but it seems sbs has fulicu back into bet old wayward course. She was seen by a reporter today sitting in a cell, "I did not steal a watch," she said. "I am wanted at Engeuo as a witness. At the tituo Sellers was arrested I was held as a witness, my bouds being fixed at $200. I came down here, and now I am to be taken buck Ibis evening No, I did not have a hand in stealing that watch; I am only a witness in the case," "It looks pretty toiiuh to see a round girl liko you behind these bars," (aid the reporter. A tear ubstened in the eye of tho (prison er for an instant, then she dropped her head, turned crimson in tho face drew a deep sigh, aud said nothing, A deputy sheriff of Lane county came down after tho prisoner, and will take her back to Eugene, Miss Morehonse bus now found out she is not a witness.

A do- parted spirit tbat revisits these glimpes of the moon and will wash the disbes, thus oombining the useful and the ornamental iu an eminent degree, Is a handy thing to have iu the house. If that ghost will como over hero to Astoria, he, she or it will nut be long in securing s job. Tbe presump tion is that a ghost that will stand in and wash tbe dishes will start the file in the morning and might do other household du ties. Nobody should be scared of a ghost like that. The Taooma man in whose house that ghost manifests itself is playing in great Juck. TlIK I'KTUKK HWINDLK.
