The steamer lies on the souta beach at the entrance of Afeea river, and while hogged beyond redemption, ber back haa not yet broken. The British bark Thistle, in command of Captain E. England, cleared from this port yesterday for Port Pirie, with 2,109,622 feet of lumber. . The big freighter Arabia got away to sea early yesterday morning, for Hong Kong and Moji, with her immense cargo of general merchandise. The British steamer Coulscon arrived in from the Orient yesterday noon, and left up for Portland in mid-afternoon. She hails from Shanghai and is in water ballast, under consignment to Mitsui t company, and her master, L J. Henry, had the wisdom to take his ballast from Shanghai water works instead of the harbor, hence his bills of health yere beyond question and he had no trouble here, as did the Oeeano and lmaum. The Coulwn, of 2772 tons' is practically a new ship, naring oeen oiun in w Howdon on Tyne; she' carries a crew of 32 people, and will load foodstuffs out of Portland for the Far Eat. The schooner Gerald C, has arrived in port after beating off the bar for nearly a week. She will have early dispatch for Tillamook and way ports.

Captain Wannell report serious difficul ty in weathering the bar at the mouth of the Columbia, making two efforts to cross in before he achieved it on Friday. The light-house tender Heather will not be here from Seattle for several days to come. " She Is still in Puget Sound and will remain there until the return of her inspecting officer who is in San Francisco. The steamship St Paul left down for San Francisco yesterday with a good passenger list and plenty of freight. The Lurline is getting a big line of freight these days and her passenger lit grows longer an the nights grow longer. The steamer Northland arrived in yes terday from San Francisco and went on up to Portland. "" 'f1Q Mavor Johnson of Seaside Is authori ty for the statement that a schooner U in sore distress at anchor, midway be tween Tillamook Head and the light- rock. At noon yesterday she had not been made out, name, color, rig nor condition, a rather strange stat of af fairs for a vessel In tliat particular place surrounded on all sides by light house men, life saving men, and const people familiar with the expedients at baud for relieving such a stress. It Is aid she had been under these dire con ditions for 20 hours at the time or re porting here. ' Captain Behncke'a service aa command er of the cruiser Falke will cease at San Francisco.

Quiet Day Around the City Building- Getting Ready for Monday'! Coun cil Meeting. City Auditor Anderson is preparing the budget of routine and new buinei for the consideration of the forthcoming council on next Monday night. In fact all the officers are employed along the same line, and the grist will probably be a heavy one. Water rates will be payable at the new office of the water commission in tue city hall, on next Monday. The furniture of tlie board-room is now com plete, the bu-iness dek of the direc tors being in place, and a match for the H'tent( chairs thV.t wty be grouped it nn JjrvUM lunlit-Jmxt It. is reputed to be a model of the table around which the Ruso-Japanee peace commis sion sat at Portsmouth lately, and it may be, for it Is elegant enough for a group of diplomats, if it is good enough for the directors of Astoria's water ser vice; at any rate, it is thoroughly ser viceable and will do duty for many years to come, as will the eight splendid cliaire in which the seven commissioners and their secretary will sit during the board se.ions. It is economy to buy and use just such materials and every public otnoe Miouiu 1 equipped on a par with this. It is money saved and lends dignity to the public service at all times. Superintendent Kearney of the street department reports that Eleventh street, between Bond and Coinmenial stJ-eet, is in very bad condition, the piling below Wing rotten and beginning to give way to the tralhe aoovej uiree caps are broken off short, and other import- sfii timber are sljowing weakness that demand in( nt attention. Mr. Kearnev has made the block safe for the present but the council will be aked to give the matter the wpiUite over hauling needed. It is now in the hands of the committee on streets and public tahwav. and will be heard from on Monday night next. Gustaffsonl the party who gave the city a $5.00 bill on Thurday as a guar ranty that he would be on hum! to ans wer a charge of drunkene, at 3 o'clock ye-Jterday in the police court, allowed the sum to accrue to the city treasury by way of forfeiture. The McTavixh monument still reU in the south corridor of the city hall, await- ng the coming of the particular dirt needed for its re-setting and the con venience of those who are to re-vet it at the southeast corner of the municipal lot The ladies in charge of the public li brary of Astoria are still waiting with extraordinary patience for the arrival of the imtent book-eases ordered some months ago: The library has been con siderably augumented by the reception of 49 new volumes, a full lint of whkh will je found eloewhere in these column onal friend of his that he U being (in port uned by admirers all over tha state to enter the race and seek to become the opponent of George E. Chamberlain at the polls in June. Probably General Summers would eome aa near being a neutral candidate between the Mitchell and Simon fac tum aa any man mentioned thus far, al though bis affiliation with the Mitchell wing In later years might enlist soma opposition from the other camp. Jut how determined this would be, If it should develop at all, b as yet In the abstract. As a veteran of the civil war, tha war with Spain and the part be played In quelling the Filipino insurrection, Gen era! Humnvws would probably attach to himself a tong follow lug .among mem ber of the G. A. R. and the Spanish war veterans, . l would proUbly, too, draw many votes from local business men, with whom he was associated before entering the public service. .This latest candidate has figured. In public Ufa in Oregon for many years. He was a member of the legislature in the days when Lotan and Simon fac tions were striving for supremacy. Be fore his election he was nominated joint ly by the delegatea of both factions in the county convention, hater he was made tha nominee of the republicans when the Lotan wing of the party won out at the primaries, but was defeated tt the polls by George Sear, who ran independent His la let prominent role was that of commander of the Second Oregon regi nient in the lhilippines. The general is now United States appraiser of cus toms, which position he once resigned to go to the Philippines. To this posi tion he was appointed through the in fluence of Senator Mitchell. Although General Summers has not announced his candidacy, he is well un derstood to be a tentative candidate and willing to run if -the outlook is promising. W. II.
