The Skamania county Pioneer says : "The steamers Dalles City and Regulator, innking daily trips from Portland to The Dalles, are doing a fine business. The establishment of this line has been a great thing to the settlers on the Washington side in two ways, financial nnd accommodation. The company have never been known to do business on an unfair basis. Although they have no competition on this end of the run they do not take advantage of the settlers and merchants nloug the river, as companies usually do in passenger and freight rates. At one time a trip from The Dalles to Portland was $( and at the present time you can make the round trip for if'.'J. The company will undoubtedly meet with success as they have the good will of the people along the river." It is pleasure to note' these kind words from our neighbor for an enterprise which should have the heartiest eup port. The Regulator was built as a re lief from the extortionate chaiges of the Union Pacific, and is the lirst which has successfully balllod all efforts to crush it. Although it can scarcely be considered a paying investment, because not patronized by many fanners whom it was designed to relieve, it will stand be tween them and the Union Pacific un til the locks are opened, when all dan ger of high charges will be ended.

(Office Second nnd Jeffer son streets,) A large crowd of young people filled Fraternity hall last evening in obedience to the summons of King Carnival. They came en masque and before the time of unmasking the spectators were kept busy trying to discover who were inside of the costumes while the maskers them selves were at a loss to know who their partners were, so complete were many of the disguises. The club is proud of the music they provide and last night tho orchestra won much approval. All the disguises were excellent while some of them were very original and unique. Much amusement was made by the characters represented and a general good time fell to the lot of everyone. At a late hour the music ceaBed and the dancers wended their way homeward, or more truly speaking, in the direction where oysters were. Tho Mignonettes feel greatly pleased at their first masque ball of the season and it is safe to say that it was nothing less than a complete success. I'rwMlergHKtlng Kreft. Mayor Kreft has just received a threat ening letter, written on both sides of half a sheet of note paper, and signed in shorthand. Nothing less than the mayor's life is demanded, as the letter states that unless the writer is furnished with a job insideof a very few days Kreft must die. Someof the larger members of the city council should bo delegated to act hs Mr. Kreft's body guard for uptime, and a few special police might be de tailed to hang around the residence and shop, and arrest all suspicious char acters. It is reported, also, that Judge Schutz received a letter of similar import to that received by the mayor, warning him to mete out better justice or he would receive a leaden plug. This letter was, of course, anonymous. PERSONAL MENTION. Mr. John Evans of Mosier is in the city today. The recorder is confined to his home by illness. Mr. Ed. M.

Hugh McCullough, of St. Paul, Or., whs held up, badly beaten and robbed Thursday night. He was down after some lost boots and was followed by two men who, after knocking him down, beat and kicked him about the head, leaving him unconscious. Richardson, the "hero" train wrecker, who is serving time in the state peniten tiary, has been boasting of his'abilitles as a jail breaker, and the officials put on him a boot loaded with Iron and weigh ing nbout sixteen pounds. This is in tended as an admonition to him and others like him. Iiiiaglnntlve, is in Tho Oregonian corresjxjndcnt error in the following: "The Columbia rose six feet last (Wednesday) night. A great quantity of cordwood that was piled on the beach drifted down stream. The river is eUU rising." Six feet in twelve hours, or even twenty-four hours, is phenomenal, and nothing like it ever occurred in the history of white settlement. The fol lowing is taken from (he government records, showing the daily rise to the 11th, the lowest point reached this year, being 5 feet above zero on the 3d. Nov. 4th the gauge marked 5.4 feet. 5th Cth 7th 8th 9th 10th 11th 5.4 6.4 0.0 7.8 10.0 10.2 10.0 County Commissioner)). The proposition of M. M. Cushing of $1,200 for keeping the county poor for the ensuing year, including board, clothing, medical attendance, funeral expenses, etc., was accepted. AIpo proposition for boarding non-resident poor at $4 per week, was also accepted, and bonds fixed at $2,500, contract to commence Nov ember 22d. J. D. Tunny, Antelope, granted liquor license for two months, also to Lane and Patterson, same place. A Terrible Weapon. The stinfj of a bee is composed of two spears of polished horn held in a sheath. One yets a notion of the sharpness of the weapon by a very simple comparison. The edge of a very keen razor, when examined under a pood microscope, nppeurs as broad us tho buck of a thielc knife, roujh, un even und full of notches. An exceed ingly small und delicate needle simi larly scrutinized resembles a rough bar from u smith's forge. The sting of a bee, viewed through the same in strument, .shows :i llmvless polish, witliout the least blemish or inequali ty, ending in a point too fine to be dis cerned. In the act of stinging the spears, each of which lias nine barbs and is grooved with u channel for the passage of the poison, emerge from the sheath. One of them is plunged into the flesh of the victim, the other fol lowing, and alternately they penetrate deeper and deeper. 'Die venom is forced to the ends of the spear:, by much the same process as that which carries the poison from the tooth of u snake when it bites. Primitive Telegraphy. The first person to apply to purposes of telegraphy the galvanic battery in vented by Voltu, in 1800, was Dr. Samuel T. Von Soemmering, of Mu nich. He employed the energy of a powerful voltaic pile to decompose water by means of thirty-live gold pins immersed in an oblong glass trough. Each of these pin electrodes was in connection with thirty-five wires forming the telegraph line. The bub bles evolved by these electrodes were received in figured and lettered tubes corresponding to eacli pin and the mes sages were thus spelled out. In 1810 he telegraphed over two miles of wire by this primitive method. As each separate pin was immersed it decom posed a certain portion of water and sent bubbles through its lettered or numbered tube. Mexican Silver Stove Polish causes no dust.
