Hammer, of Astoria, Ore., died of hemorrhage of the lungs at the Northwestern depot In this city this afternoon. He and Mrs. .Eliza beth Scrly, with her five children, were en foutc to Norway. Mr. Hammer left this city on Fri day, the 3rd instant, for his home in Norway, and had been an invalid for some months; having recovered from a long siege of typhoid fever only to relapse into tuberculosis. He was in financial straits, when his countrymen in this city and section made up a purse to defray his expenses home, and availed themselves of the very kind offer of Mrs, Scrly, who was on the eve of her departure for Nor way to visit her home, to attend to the old gentleman during the jour ney. Just what steps will be taken in this sad emergency cannot be stated at this writing, but the b&dy will probably be taken oer by his countrymen there, and properly pro vided for.) Home From Europe Charles Jeffrey, a well known and popular young Astorian, has just re turned from a seven months- tour of Europe, and is glad to be back on home ground, despite the fact that every hour and mile of his outing was thoroughly enjoyable. He visited a number of the great capitals of Eu rope, including London, Antwerp and Paris, but did not get to go to the Mediterranean, which he regrets ex ceedingly. He left here last Septem ber and docs not regret an hour of the time devoted to travel. His friends were delighted to see him.

O'Brien, who has been ill at St. Vincent's hospital at Portland for the past two weeks, with ear trouble, returned from the metropolis on Sun day last to his Astoria home: he is still a bit weak and needs careful handling, but he is the "ring" alright, and will tackle his duties at the As toria Rox Company, at the first fav orable moment. His friends are glad to see him back again, and he rather reciprocates the sentiment.

Straus, G. O. Moen, and Tina B. Kerr. The articles provide for the mnaufacture and sale of a new device in the way of lamp-burners; and the business is capitalized at $10,000, with that number of shares at a par value of $1. each.

ALEX TAGG Peculliar Accident A swift-movintr delivery wagon swung out of Commercial street into Tenth, vesterday afternoon, with a long rope trailing over the tail-board of the wagon. The team was going a gait that put the rope in the air a foot ortwo, and as it passer a China man on the crossing caught him about - - the legs and swept his off his feet, dragging about fifty feet up Tenth, before he could disentangle himself. He was not injured when he arose from the street, but he was about as mad as men get and stay sane. Resolutions of Respect The following resolutions were adopted by the Astoria W. C. T.

Looking up Local Material . From unquestionable authority it is stated that the construction of the Wcinhard-Astoria Hotel, projected by the Weinhard estate, is to be start ed in good fashion this season. Those in charge of the splendid enterprise are looking into the prospect of ob taining the fine quality of brick and finishing materials needed in the big work, right here in Astoria, in view of the recent developments in the clays of Astoria; which will be an excellent thing for Astoria if the trustees can secure their half-million brick at the "right-hand" of the work itself, and speaks plainly of their real interest in the city and county. On a Business Trip Mr. Buettner, the well'known man ager of the Wienhard Brewery, at Portland, arrived in this city yester day on a flying business trip which comprehended SefMe as well as As toria, In the coifse of a brief con-, versation with the reporter of this paper, Mr. Buettner , remarked that "hereafter the Columbia Bottling Co, of your city will do the bottling of the Weinhard beer for this market, exclusively, the brewery at Portland ' having ceased to ship its bottled pro duct to this city; thus giving your people the best of goods at first hand, besides giving Astoria a new and very practical industry of its own." Mr. Buettner went on to Seaside, and returned to the metropolis on the evening express. Old Pioneer Gone Dorlon Tryon, a pioneer of 1849. died at the residence of his niece, Mr, A. A. Cleveland on Sunday of dis eases incident to old age. Mr. Tryoa was in his 83rd year. He was a na tive of Vermont.
