An Associated Preaa dispatch recilv ed last night had the following to eay regarding the Chinese reformer, who waa recently In Astoria, and from wjhom An Interview waa ob'aln?d and printed exclusively In The Morning Astorlan San Fronolsco. Aug. 2S. Lung Kal Tin. a youthful looking Chinese who claim to be the personal representative and emissary of the Chinese emperor, ICwan? Hsu, haa arrived In the city, accompanied by two e?cretaries, Shum Moon and Wun Turn. The visitors have come to America, they say, on a mission which haa for Its object the enlargement of the reform movement among the Chinese residents here. For some months pan Leung Kal Tin boa ben spreading the reform gospel tmong the Chlnesa of British Columbia, Seff tie, Astoria. Portland and other cltlea In the Pacific Northwest, and he now Intends 3 take up the work here." George Jeffries, Ole Thomasson, A. Norbln and N, Johanaen, the four sail ors tuken from the British ship Cedar bank, Saturday night, on a warrant charging them with larceny, were tried and found guilty In Justice Brower's court yesterday. The men were fined 25 each, which Is equivalent to twelve daya In the county Jail. The question of Jurisdiction which waa to have been argii'Vl did not come upas the deputy marshals failed to appear. It looks as If there waa something decidedly crook ed In the affair. Tha marshals claimed that they had an open order from the federal court to deliver the men to the captain of the ship, after the sailors 'iad served fourteen days for desertion. Instend of currying out th order Im mediately the officers came to Astoria with them and ha.1 not released the prisoners from custody when Constable Kelley servjd his parers. If the otjlcers had been permitted to retain posses sion of their charges It would have eatabllshed an unheard-of precedent. Any one committing crime could get aboard ship and escape. The captain of the Cedarbank assured the British vice-consul here that he Intended go ing to Portland Sunday to lay the mat ter before the authorities there, but Instead of doing so he put to sea Sun day forenoon. As the ship was short handed. Captain Batcholor has made himself amenable to the maritime laws of Great Britain. The effects of the allors were taken along; one man los ing letters attesting to his good char acter and covering & period of thirty- three years, while amrtlWhad a chedc for quite a large amount lu his locker. Captain Batchelor, according to the authorities', will yet be given an oppor tunity to txpluln matter. GODDARD'H LAMENT.

God durd," A a postscript the writer had the following to aay In rhyme; "I hate to leave you In this awful fight. Put I will pray (That God) will give you light." PABTOR DEFENDED. ASTORIA. Or.. Aug. 2?. lMfl.-E'lltor Aatorlan: The lUtn that appeared In the Morning Astorlan with respect to Vtev. iVart' return Is misleading. In asmuch a all the fact in the case wre not itated. There were eleven officials of the church present and six absent. Six voted against the pastor's return, three of th"e In one family, all of whoift had been removed from office for causl, term of oftlce not expiring till Septem ber 17, thus giving them a chan;e to vote. The other three were against Mr. Peart because he refused to preach fire and brimstone, and fanttlfkatlon aa a m'ttna cf being delivered from that punlxrment. ' : The vote of tlnne six by ho meahi represents the filling of th congr. gatlon and church regarding -Rev, Peart's return. METHODIST, REAL ESTATE TRANSFERS.

' The temperatures In the western part of the atate averaged about the same as last week, but east of the Cascade mountain It waa considerably cooler, tapeclally during the day tlK. In western Oregon the maximum, or day, temperatures ranged from 65 de grees to 80 d'-grees, and the minimum, or night, temperature between 45 de gree and 60 degrees. In eastern Ore gon these variations wert for day tem peratures between 62 degrees and &0 degrees, and for night temperatures be tween 40 dogrea and 64 degrees. Good rain fell in the Willamette vaU ley and coast district Friday and Sat urday, and showen occurred Saturday In aouthern Oregon. In the Columbia river valley and about Baker City the weather was cloudy and threatening all the week and small showers occurred nearly every driy. The cut grain In this section haa not yet been Injured to any great extent by these rains, but thrash ing has been hlndi-red and fears are en tertained that the unprotected grain will be damaged unless fair weather come soon. The late-sown wheat In Umatilla courty Is turning out better than the early-aown, and ome 40-bushel yield are reported. . . .. . Correspondents report the following threshing yield this Week: Mai'.no- mah county, wheat 4 to 8 bushels, oats 10 to 15, peas about 15; Polk county, wheat 3 to 12. oau 10 to 22;Columbla county, wheat 7 to 10, oats 15 to 20, bar' ley 25 to 30; Yamhill county, oata 12 to 20, barley 15 to 30; Linn coanty, wheat 2 to 17, oats 8 to 30; Lane county, what 3, oats 12; Clackamas county, fall wheat 9, spring wheat 8, fail oata 20, spring oata IS; Coo county, barley, about 40. Wheat and oats In the Willamette valley, besides yielding very poorly, are light In weight and the crop, as a whole. Is very unsatisfactory. Corn and potatoes are doing nicely. Hop picking haa Just begnn and the hops are reported of extra good quali ty, and nearly an average crop .will be harvested. Gardens and pastures have been im proved by the rains, and stock general ly la in fine condition. Frune drying will be general this week. The Petit prunes are abundant and of fine flavor, but they are rather smaller than usual. The Fellenberg prunes are extra good, both in size and luallty, but, owing to the spring frost. a very short crop will be marketed. Apples are promising. NEWS ABOUT STAMPS. An Innovation In the postal service which la sure to be of great conven ience la a plan lately adopted of fur nishing stamps In little books, with wax sheets between them. The gov ernment la to charge one cent addi tional to the amount of stamps con tained therein, and It 19 now estimat ed that the profit on these books will amount to $200,000 per annum. It Is also estimated that the sum paid for the Private Revenue Stamps placed over the top of the bottles containing Hos tetter's Bitters very nearly equals this. Tho Bitter is a reliable remedy for constipation, Indigestion, dyspepsia, biliousness, liver and kidney troubles. It may be depended upon to cure stom ach disorders, having done so for the past fifty years. SHELLS! SHELLS! SHELLS! At reduced Drlces. The last week. Prof. Esteg at Conn'a drugstore.
