The mall carrier from Waldport to Newport Inst nlR-ht say It la reported that a echooner came, ashore Wednes day night about seven miles touth of Alsea bay, bottom up. The vessel I about one hundred feet In lengtn and Is supposed to be the schooner Joseph and Henry. The echooner Joseph ana Henry la owned In Pan Francisco ana run between that city ana eouin western Oregon port, and waa sighted several day ago oft the coaat bottom up.

While on the voyage to Acupulco one man waa killed by railing; from aion, nut no accident of note occurred since then. Four almond-eyed Celeatlala were ar rested by the cuntom house inspec tors on their arrival on the noon train yesterday. They came from Se attle and were thought, to be here In violation of the exclusion law. They were examined and two of them were found to possess papers while a third held a habeas corpu writ which serv ed for Identification.

The tnc Tatooeh, which tows many of the ship in and out of the Tocoma harbor, has gone to San Francisco to bring back a monster dredger, which Will be used In clearing out the mouth of the Pllohuck creek at Everett. The Tatoosh haa made several tow to San Francisco, but not In the weather that haa prevailed during; the past few week. A dredger la an unwieldy craft In a rough aea and a howling gale and seafaring' men are watching the pro- greas of the TatooBh with interest, a It will be her first severe test since her launching last year. About eigh teen days will be consumed In making the trip. lo T. M. Ktevfn tt ..o.. ana came the larget cargo that ha ever reach ed thia part from the Orient.

The Milo had more freight offering than she could handle and one wa left at Yokohama, and will probably be brought over by the Eva. which I to follow on the Portland route. The Immense amount of freight offered I a guarantee that much busi ness ran be had by the new line with hltle effort. Mmmm ' ' On acount of a compromise which haa been effected the HbH against the German bark Pax here In the harbor wa released yesterday and she la al lowed to continue on her Journey. The libel was brought In the name of two men who had been engaged by the cap tain of the vessel to go to sea with him. He told them to report at Asto ria and when they did, he told them that he would not need their service and offered each of them $5 for their expense! and trouble- They placed the matter in the hands of an attorney, who brought tult In the United State court for the amount of wage which would be due the men at the end of the Voy age and the essel was detained. Some tumprvptlse wo made between the cap tain and the men. by which they re ceived a certain aum. of money, Just how much they refuse to say. These men were not ahlpped through the reg ular channels, of the sailor boarding house and It Is probable that the objec tion to their making- the voyage came from these Interests. A DUNKARD COLONY.

To strengthen the stomach, there Is nothing; better than Ilostetter's Stomach Bitters. It cures dyspepsia, constipation. Indiges tion, liver and kidney troubles, and as a tonl. It Is Incomparable. The Bit ters strengthens the nerves, produces refreshing- sleep and gives renewed strength and vlgnr to the system. It Is undoubtedly the best medicine In the world for debilitated systems. Try it.
