! A Portland piper mentiC8- th"ttone
cutters have commenced to chiaC ks
of granite again at the locks of the . ,ca8
cades. This is an indication that the
appropriation bill is safe. When work
stopped for want of an appropriation,
there- was about. $67,000 left unex
pended) and now Joggles writes - to
inquire- if the interest on this
$67,000 stopped when work was stopped?
and if not, who is the man or - the bank
who got the benefit of the interest. He
says this interest would almost "be suffi
cient to pay for blasting out the rocks in
the main rapids, and making a naviga
ble channel according to the idea of. Dr.
Aug. CKinney, of Astoria, as. given in
Thb Chronicle week before last. Jug
gles is right. Butv when the . contract
system is adopted, then there will be no
more shutting down of the Work to wait
for'congress-to pass an appropriation. ;

::: BlKgeat Umbrella In the World. '
It is said that the biggest umbrella-in
the world has been made for the use of
a west African king. The umbrella,
which can be closed in the usual man
ner, is , twenty-one feet in diameter and
is affixed to a polished mahogany staff
of the same length. The canopy is made
of India straw, and has a score of straw
tassels and a border of crimson satin.
On the top is a pine shaped straw orna-1
ment which terminates in a gilded cone.
When in use the umbrella is fixed in the
ground, and under its shelter the king is
able to entertain thirty guests at dinner.

In olden times a bird called a "phoe
nix" was thought to live in the deserts
of Arabia. . His lease of life was said to
be 500 years, at the end of which time
he built a nest of spices and fanned it
into a flame with his wings. The flame
reduced the bird to ashes, ont of which
he sprung to live another 500 .years.
Richardson says that he had fifty orifices
in his beak, through which he sung me
