The 'boys" on the Hassalo had the fun for their lives on Wednesday morn ing last, with a porker shipped at Port land, to a party by the name of Brown, at Chinook. Piggy, by some hook or orook known only to the porcine fami ly, bucked out of it pen on the steamer and made free ue of the gangway, and the fun was had in trying to catch it. The sport was at its height as the Hassalo rounded Tongue Point and somewhere between there and the Kin ney cannery, the grunter got tired of the frolic and went overboard as a oooooooooooooooooo 0 FLOTSAM AND JETSAM. 0 OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO The steamer Volga arrived down from Portland yesterday afternoon, and will go on the regular run of the K.

Repairs Lean. a ik in me mat conduit of the pipe line necessitated force of men to work most of vester day putting it in shape. Store Broken Into. The cigar alorc of Jacob I'ttthigcr was entered by tin known parties sometime earlv Tliurs day morning and about $2.1 worth o good taken. The burglar entered b a rear door, and escaped, leaving no trace of their identity. There has been a general advance Am on u the staff of the steamer Lurline means of stopping it It was ont long fcv rf the - of Jw Fowler to the agency office in making shore and disappeared in the wilds of "swill-town." For several hours the 0. R. & X. force was strung up and down the local waterfront try ing to spot the spuealler and take it back to the big dock, but the first news they got of it. the city pound-master had roped it, during the afternoon some time and he took it in a stall, for .safe keeping. Yesterday morning one of the 0. R. 4 X. officers went to that official and tendered him his legal fees for im pounding and keeping the animal, and when he went after it, the blamed thing had rooted up a plank in the floor and gone swimming again, for it had no other exit save by the bay, and its whereabouts is still one of the un solved mysteries of Astoria; but the greater mystery of the whole thing is, who is responsible for the shoat and its delivery and the incidental costs? To the astonishment of the local mar ine world1 here, the steamer Francis H. Legget, entered this harbor yesterday about 1:30 p. m., just when everyone about here thought she was scouring the Pacific for the huge sea raft she dropped below Blanco last week while en route to San Francisco from this port. As soon as possible the marine reporter of the Astorian was interview-, ing Captain Reiner, of the Leggett, as to the status and where abouts of the raft; but it developed that he knows absolutely nothing of it since he was forceJ to abandon it just below Cape Blanco in the gale of last Friday night. He says the wind was blowing eighty or ninety miles an hour when the steel hawser by which he was towing the monster parted; that the hauling cable that threads the center of the great pile of timbers, must have bro ken with the tremendous strain some where in the heart of it, and that when he swung clear and got a view of the tow, there were two sections of it. From that hour he has seen nothing of it, although he has made close inshore runs and a number of tangent spurts to seaward in searching of it. He is con vinced that it is in some current and sweeping to the southward and west ward. He came in here for orders and hoped that his orders might be to hook on to the other raft lying in the low er harbor and proceed to San Francisco with it, as it was badly needed there Charles Y fit this city; Jack Morgan takes the purserhip;A. 0. Short, a young San Francisco refugee takes the freight clerk's billet; and Paul MeCann goe to the night clerk's post. The Lurline went up on time last evening with a good list of people and a small batch of freight. Funeral Today.

How often do we hear it remarked: " It's only a cold," and a few days later learn that the man is on his back with pneumonia. This is of such common occurrence that a cold, however slight, should not be disregarded. Chamber lain's Cough Remedy counteracts any tendency of a cold to result in pneu monia, and has gained its great popu larity and extensive sale by its prompt cures of this most common ailment. It always cures and is pleasant to take. For "sale by Frank Hart and leading druggists. Sore Nipples. A cure may be effected by applying Chamberlain's Salve as soon as the child is done nursing.
