The tele phone company has not yet been spoken to In regard to the matter to whether or not any assistance will be given them from that quarter cannot, of course, be told.

The British ship County of Linlith gow Is now at the quarantine station, having been towed there Monday morning. The work of discharging the ballast has not yet commenced and will not be for a few days. The smallpox cose, only, hot thus far meea at tended to and until every chance ot the disease spreading Is eliminated the hold will remain closed. The patient has been given a thorough bath, It now Iso lated and the living apartments of the vessel he been fumigated .with sul phur. At the ballast it yet to be dis charged and fumigated and new bal last taken on It Is anticipated some time will elapse before the ship will be free to proceed on her course. The pioneer blacksmith of the city, George A.' 8tlnson, hat been missing for four days and there are grave fears entertained at to his safety. Indeed there It little doubt but that he hat either met with foul play or hat fallen accldently into the river and been drowned. The latter theory 1 gener ally conceded to be the more practic able ot the two. The missing man wa last seen Friday night at the foot of Nlntli street. At the time he was somewhat under the Influence of liquor and It would have been an easy mat ter for a man In his condition to have fallen Into the river, at aober men have made a misstep In that dark locality. Mr. Stlnson' relative are naturally greatly exorcised over his continued absence and will be grateful to anyone who will give any Information a to his whereabouts. The Joyous melody . of a babbling brook can hardly create more satis faction than the various elements found In a new three act fare comedy "The Irish Pawnbroker" that comet to Fishers' opera house next Monday evening.

De fendants art charged with violating the fishing law of tbe (late In having stur geon in their possession out of season The point at Issue appears to be a con tention contained. In the demurrert that sufficient cause la not given to take action In the matter. A Are occurred In the tierplng apart ment of the milk depot lost night about 1:30 o'clock that was fortunately extinguished before serious damage had been done. The odor of burning clo'.h attracted a neighbor and at soon a he cause was ascertained an alarm wot turned In. The cause happened to be a burning bed. No one wot In the room at the time, but the occupants had been not long before, and It it supposed that the remnants of a burn ing cigarette had started the blase.'; 3. H. Jeffert and hit associate, William Johnson, were not far away and hurry ing to the scene pitched tbe biasing bed Into the street. Aside from some ruin ed elothms; thta was til th damage In flicted, so It was not necessary to make us of the Ore department. - There it a family residing on the upper floor of tb building and the members became ronelderably wrought up over the af fair, one young lady fainting away la her excitement. . . A ripple of excitement wo created among the hillside residents In the neighborhood of Grace church "yester day by the report getting abroad that a ctazy man was at large and wot pre pared to do all sorts of diabolical deeds. Sheriff Llnvllle was notified and after a careful search captured hit man. The patient proved to be'a young man by the name of Geddet and he lives in the vicinity of the Clatsop mill. , It seems that Mr. Geddet received a paralytic stroke about a month ago and the at tack has left his mind In a weakened condition. Yesterday afternoon he left his home and started down town. His wife protested to his going out, but without result, and to tht distracted woman, accompanied him. When they reached Prael and Cook's stables the couple separated, Mrs. Geddes hurry ing on to notify the proper authorities. The demented man did not give any evidence of being violent and was cap tued without particular difficulty. He Is now lodged in the county jail and For 5Ick Headaches try these famous Pills. They remove the cause and act quickly. You will feel like a new person after tak ing Beecham's Pills will undergo an examination at to bit tanlty tome time today.' ,. ' "If this old pump gun of mine doesn't beat that f7C0 gun of Tallant'tf 111 throw it In th bay," announced Sheriff Llnvllle yesterday afternoon, at a lit tle party of Rod and Gun club enthus iasts made Its way to the ran com pany's dock. Will Tallant's gun Is a marvel of beautiful workmanship and ha attracted much attention ever since he bought It. . Yesterday ft wa agreed that Clark Lougnery and Frank Cook should try out the Tallant gun, and the genial sheriff, proud of his duck-slayer, went along for the test. On the way down Lougnery and Billy Martin de termined that the sheriff should be Jobbed, o Martin, who attended to the targets, proceeded to fix thing about right for Llnvllle. The sheriff's gun is a crack-a-Jack, and" Lougnery select ed It for the first shot. Martin In the meantime reduced the site of the tar get for Tallant's gun and placed It un der that prepared for Llnvllle's gun, to that the sheriffs pattern appeared al so cn Tallant's target. The trick was very neatly played, and twice the fake test was made, with tbe result that Llnvllle's gun made a very poor show ing. The sheriff did not "tumble" at the time, although the worried look on his face denoted the he tuspected that something was wrong, and he shouldered hit gun and took hit way homeward, a very tad man. N. D. Bain, who wot also with the party, had secured a cheap gun from A. G. Spexarth, and in firing No. ( ahot it made the best ahowlng, greatly to the delight of Bain, whose handsome 1175 gun is In Portland. THE WOMEN OF WOODCRAFT.
