An excel lent programme was rendered, and the affair was a most enjoyable ! one. Judge J. J.

Four young men of Yaquina City who had gone ' down to Newport the other day, and attempted to - return after nightfall, became lost in the fog and rowed about over the bay all night.

Two .Thousand Dolhrs to be Offered Frizes A Silver Trumpet. in A meeting of the board of di rectors oi the North western Fire men's Association was held in the rooms of the Portland Volunteer Firemen's Association Thursday afternoon. The directors present were: G. Kellogg, of Seattle; J. N. Hoffman, of Albany, and P. W. Weeks, of Astoria. The finance committee reported that they would raise $21)00 for tournament purposes, which will be offere 1 as prizes as follows : Champion race First prize, $200 and trumpet valued at $125, pre sented by Mayor Van B. DeLash mutt; second pnze, $150; third prize, $100. Wet test First prize, $200 and a trumpet presented by the Exempt Firemen's Association ; second prize, $150 ; third prize, $100.

Citizens, there fore, shuuld subscribe liberally to the fund. MAYOR DELASHMUTT'S GIFT. Mayor DeLashinut has ordered a handsome silver firemen's trumpet, the finest that can be had, which he intends to offer as a prize for the victors in the championship race at the coming tournament. The mayor will probably have the trumpet made from silver from the Sierra Nevada or one of the other mines at Cieur d'Alene, in which he is irterested. The winners of the trumpet will no doubt feel verv proud of it, but they must remem ber that silver is soon to be so common when the Cceur d'Alene mines get running full blast that farmers will have their dinner horns made of it, and next harvest the threshing crews throughout the state will be called up to ttiree kinds of pie three times a dav.with j the silvery-toned instruments. Oregonian. BIUGL1KY AT HABKISBI KU. The 0. & C. Company's Safe and Bobbed. Blown Open Information was received in this city that the O. & C. and Wells Fargo & Go's safe at Uarrisburg was blown mnrnintr , and robbed of $100. " Tfi Raft wna hW noaViv pieces, the door beintr torn entirelv out. ut the monev taken $oo be- longed to Wells Jb argo & Co. and $45 to the O. & C. company. It is stated also that some money orders and papers were taken. No clew to the perpetrators has been ob tained. The recent safe robbery at Ore gon city and the robbery at Wood burn on the same night as the one at Harrisburg would lead to the be lief that some deft-fingered burg lars were operating along the line of the Oregon & California railroad. Thoazbt He Could Run. C. J. Howard, a bright looking young man came nimbly into the city Wednesday evening on foot, direct from California. He said he was flat broke and looking for a job. During the evening he straved out to First street, and after watch ing the fire boys exercise a little, casually remarked that he was a racer from Chicago, and could give the boys many pointers on run ning, and besides if he could re ceive backing wou.d run any man in the valley. Yesterday he went to the track on Third street to show several of the boys what he could do in a few "brnshos " Imagine his surprise, however, when he discovered that out of the five boys who were present anv one could chke him with a twenty-five-foot rope in any reasonable distance. He left yesterday for Salem, where, no doubt, he will attempt the same game, and will probably meet with the same re sult. The AKi-leulfaral Board' Pampblet. State Printer Baker informed the writer tnis afternoon, that the type on the pamphlet being published by the state board of agiicnlture has all been set, and that the forms will be off the pi ess bv the last of next week, and the book ready for the binder. This will probably be the most comprehensive descrip tive work on Oregon ever publish ed. It will slight no portion of the state, and will give full informa tion regardiue th:s great state Salem Journal. Board or Trade Meeting. The regular meeting of the Board of Trade has been postponed until Tuesday evening, May 22, at 8 o'clock, in the G. A. Ii. hall, on account of the court house and G. A. H. hall both being engaged for Monday evening. By order of the president. J. W. Blaix. Secretary. Albany, Slay 18, 1888. Death or. I. K. uth. Mr. J. It. South, of Halsey, died at his residence at that place on Thursday. after a prolonged illnes. liis funeral occurred yesterday ,tiie remains being interred in the San tiam cemetery. C. P. R. R. May 10, 1833. To the Editor ok thk Hkkald: The day is almost done and here goes a fow lines for the folks at home. It hs.s been a remarkable day in sight-seeing and pleasure- going. In the early morning we found ourselves approaching the Selkirk mountains, noted for all that is grand and great, tremen dous and terrific. But before we really get our eyes washed out and ready for the day, we take a walk through the cars to see our fellow pilgrims on the way. There are now and then some funny sights and scenes inside the cars. Out there in front is a man who is try ing to imitate the grandeur of nature by making a sleeping vol cano of himself with the crater wide open. He is almost snoring hi head off, when the cry is heard, "Twenty minutes for break fast,"which wakens him to the fact that he has been carried past his destination 20 miles, and that vol cano becomes extinct. One old lady anxiously asks the conductor, "Please, sir, what place is this?" "Hell's Gate, madame." "Oh, my," sdie replied, "don't stop here long." And so it goes; all the while the odds and ends of human nature coming in sight constantly. Now we are creeping up the steep sides of the steeper mountains, which challenged the utmost skill of the best engineers to find a safe pathway for the iron horse to make his onward tread to the Atlantic sea. By the wiy we are told that Mr. A. Schenck, now one of the department engineers of the O. P., performed some of the most difii cults part of this work and fixed the lines of this grand and unparalleled road. Mr. Schenck is ranked one of the finest civil engineers in the country. Scene after scene of sur passing grandeur meeto our gaze. Wonder is well nigh changed into terror as we look up, up, up to these everlasting mounts. Mts. Ho(Jd, Jefferson and the Three Sisters fade into insignificance and forgetfulness as we behold these mightier and more majestic works of the Almighty. What forces built these rock-ribbed walls so grand, so high ? Whose mind de vised so marvellous a plan and wrought designs so full of mighty maiestv? Before this sublime ar chitecture of nature man is dumb and feels within his very soul that the hand that shaped them is in deed divine. The construction of the Canadian Pacific railroad is a triumphant victory for the science of engineer ing. "Nature had fortified herself against what seems every attack that the skill of man can offer, but as we wind around the slopes of precipitous mountains and shoot through the rocky tunnels, and climb the very summits of the snow-clad peaks, we confess the power of mind over matter and shout victory once more for the grand achievments of science. It is not in human power to de scribe the beauty and glory of wh. t we have seen to-day. These mountain peaks, white pinnacles of earth, pierce the clouds and : ioucu, as n were, me very uiue oi blue I heaven. These gorges echoing ! forever and forever the ! mugic of nature's grandest orclies tra. These glaciers in profoundest silence telling the story of burnished curtains of snow and ice, all, all in one hurmonious whole, bid us j be still and know 'tis God who fashioned these pillars of the earth and filled this temple of nature with works so vast. Night time curtains our window with darkness and we turn in to sleep just as we reach the summit of the Rockies. Morning comes quickly, and the first peep of day tells us we are out on the bound less prairie of the northwest province of British America. Far to the west we can see the Rocky mountains we left in the night, and now they look like a silver line against the sky, as the tops are white with snow. The antelope and Indians are all around us and yonder but a little way off can be seen a whole Indian village on ttie move. The call for breakfast is heard and the way in which Mr. Templeton, Mrs. Thompson and myself rush forward to get a bite beats the liveliest mosquito ever made. Here endeth the second epistle. E. J. Thompson". Fined Ten Dollars. Joshua Nichols, who was arrested at Sweet Home, for disturbing the public school and threating the direc tors and others, when arraigned in Justice Humphrey's court yesterday morning, was bued $1C and costs. It should serve as a warning not to make too big a fu08 over little troubles in the school district a state of things which too often arises. Another Sale. Curran & Montieth sold vester terday to E.
