local IhiptlBt church. At a recent
meeting of the ofhVlulii of the church
he wii elected to nerve a pastor fur

The ateniner Itellunce left out yes

two or three day watching until the

that was at nil suitable. The steamer
has her cabins firmly braced, the small

prepared to meet her oceun voyuge.

The local Marine Engineers' V -tioflt
Association No. 70, contemplate pur
chasing or renting a atenmer nnd plnc
Iiik It on the route bctwen here nnd
t'atlilami'l. The association clnlms the
boat can lie rrfn with very little ex
)enst, the only offlcltil. necessary t
be employed being the captain, the en
gineers asserting thnt they will man
the vessel In every other department.
A committee will probably be appoint
ed by the association at an early dale
to visit Portland and secure a steam
er. The contest social given by the la
dles of the W. C. T. IT, yesterday aft
ernoon nt the home of Mrs. Rannells
was yell attended and proved a delight

vided In what Is known as sides, each
side contesting for a specified period
In the accomplishing of good di cds
and In the end tho side that Is con
sidered to have' done the least enter
tains the winning side with a social.
At the social given yesterday the en
tertainers wore masques at the back
of their heads, which were emhlemat
Icnl of looking backward over the
shortcomings of the contest they hnd
engaged In. During the progress of
the social those present had the pins

Harrison Allen and wife returned
yesterday from a five-weeks' visit at
Cannon Ilegih. That section of the
country, with Its balmy climate und
grand si.snery, Mr. Allen believes to
be the moat beautiful In the sitae and
not aufflclently appreciated by Oregon
hum. The chlf drawback Is the poor
road an iiininojatlon, The people there
hope that the county court will take
hold of the matter and maintain a reg.
ulnr county road, thereby assuring the
outside world a good substantial means
of travel. This would greatly enhance
the Interests of the place and add to

SOLI '1 Kit MISSING.
Itellfoid, of Nlmty-Thlrd Coast Artil
lery ha Dlsuppeured.
An further news of the Fort Stevens
solilier can lie obtained. The two
young artlller) men who followed the
man from tin- fort to the trestle have
railed to lo. ate him and believe that
he ha fallen off and been drowned.
They claim that he vu muddled with
tlrlnk. one of the officers at the Fort
was kind enough, In answer to a re
aucBt from this paper, to give this
statement:
Iti'llofrd wu i mechanic working
on guns und llioii: carriages. 1 was
In the habit of seeing blin twice u
day and had no complaint to make
against him. Of course. If he were
drinking, he might brace hltme.f up
when un officer came round, but us
he was a good workman und we could
always rely on his work being prop
erly done we hud no occasion to be
lieve that he Vus drinking as heavily
us some of his eoturudes claim now.
After leuvlng the fort he probably got
some drink down town before start
ing for Astoria. To the best of our
knowledge he was sobr when he left
here. I hnd good occasion to observe
him yes t c id ay as I waa talking to him
about several pieces of work and he
carried himself straight. At all times
when Jtellford got Instructions to do
a thing we could rely on It lelng
properly done."
MEDAL RECOVERED.
After Heing Lost for More Than One
Year.
It may be remembered that J. W.
Pembroke was a visitor to the Asto
ria regatta over a year ago. Mr. Pem
broke was instrumental In getting some
well-known 'San Frunclseo oarsmen to
take purt and during the stay made a
great number of acquaintances. At
that lime he lost u medal which hnd
been won by a four-oared crew which
had competed. No trace of It could be
found after a diligent search. About
a month ago while the merry-go-round
was running In this city a Mr. Fred
erickson found the medal and t iinie
dlntely turnel It over to the chief of
police. Since then the chief has been
on the hunt for the owner nnd got
word of him In a letter front San Fran
cisco giving his address. The return,
after such a length of lime, und found
In such a way is wonderful, and the
good luck of regaining property lost
for so long comes to very few. The
chief of police traced Mr. Pembroke's
address through the Alameda Boat
Club and It took a month's liuuilrlt-s
before locating the owner of the
mednl.

A POWERFUL SEARCHLIGHT.
The latent Invention Is that of a sig
nal light which It Is claimed will pen
etrate the heaviest fog for a distance
of half a mile. It It Is a success many
accidents on both land and sea can be
averted. Much Interest is being man
ifested In the discovery, the same as
In any other Invention that is Intended
to savs life. This Is the reason so
many people hve been Interested in
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters during the
past 60 years. It Is recognized as the
best health maker and blood purifier
in existence, and with good health and
blood disease cannot And a foothold.
It Is therefore specially adapted to
persons in Ill-health and who suffer
from heartburn, Indigestion, dyspep
sia, constipation, or malaria, fever
and ague. Try It.

Th ecity presented a very peculiar
appearance yesterday afternoon. The
Minoke, which has been steadily In
(rearing for the past two r three
days, seemed to bank up and in the
short space of an hour it waa clmost
dark although early In the afternoon.
The Chang uf the wind drove the
smoke Into a dense cloud, and the
coast having become clear the rays
of the sun shining from an unobscur
ed sky produced a rather startling
phenomen of a yellow green color. A
good number of nervous people were
frightened badly and all klrds of amus.

Ions of Martinique carr.e bp and many
got suddenly very devout The girls
working in the SanWn-Cuttlng Pack

secluded sj.ota to g.Jt on their knees.
Klsewhoee among well-known families
there was consternation. Some were
foun d locked In each other's arms, and
tthTit womanlike went to bed. The
excitement was not noticeable on the
streets, where cooler heads were ex.
plaining the cause of the sky's unus

fice U. 8. A. ro'alled the time that a
similar phenomen had marked the day
of President Arthur's death. Fine
ashes were falling all day. The cap
