The State f California did not arrive down yesterday until evening, hence the detention of her sailing. She will probably go to sea to-day. The telegraph line was up a few hours on Thursday, but went down Aouth of Yrela early in the evening. Hence the scarcity of telegraphic news this morning. The teacher's institute will hold smother session in the Young Men's Christian association hall to-day, and in the Congregational church this evening. As will be seen by reference to tlie shipping columns on the fourth page of this paper, the Oregou Railway and Navigation company hae chang ed their advertisement, making it more comprehensive to the traveling public, who can see at a glance the correct time of arrival and departure of their nteamcrs and trains. The New Tacoma Ledger says: "Oleomargarine, or bogus butter oc casionally finds its way int this re mote market. It is made of beef tal low and wther grease, but iB claimed "by its factors to be pure and whole tome. It is difficult to distinguish this substance from butter, and it is sold largely throughout the country as the genuine products of the dairy. The city council of Chicago recently enacted an ordinance requiring the manufacturers of oleomargarine to stamp its true character on all soid, under penalty of $5U for each oIIoiimj." The grand n. n. . given by the Olympic club at Liberty hall last even ing was indeed a pleasant gathering. The hall was well filled, notwithstimd ing the heavy rainfall and the lwd con dition of the streets.

The music was furnished by 1'rof. .). II. & Rods aud full quadrille Imnd from Portland, and was certainly the best Astorians have ever had the pleasure of listening' to. Owing to the late ness of the hour, and the fact that wo were all there, we are compelled to go to press without giving full details of this grand affair. Teacher's Institute.

The Waco (Texas) Examiner &ays: The frontier telegraph office at Williams much, as stated in the Examiner some weeks ago. is man aged by Hallfe Hutchinson, a little girl nine years of age. A gentle man who returned from there a few lays since says Ilallie is the most njinarkably intelligent little elf he ever had the pleasure of meeting. Sh bandies her instru ment with the success ami pre cision of an old operator.. Recent ly, when election returns: were coming in and the whole oountrj" was wildly excited to know the result, little Halite tat at her in strument, her eyes aglow with intelligence, ad giulierHl in the news from all over the union, while dozens of brawny men crowded around to hear what the lightning brought, and. to admire the wonderful skill of the iittle operator. While controlling the wires a she doe Hallie is not un like other Hub1 girls of her age in her habits and inclinations. For instance, one end of her operating table is piled full of baby dolls, and she spends a great deal of her leisure time dressing and nursing them. Brown county may claim the youngest telegraph operator iu the world. Spots on the Sun. St. IHlts KrpttMkllH. When speaking of the spots on the sun. in his lecture the other night. Professor Rees stated that many of thern were noticed to re volve with great velocity, some of them at the rate of 120 miles per second. These rotations are ex plained by the facts that then are on the surface of the sun cyclones which drift along those large masses of volcanic matter at an in describably swift rat:. It must be remembered that the smallest one of the spots would be covered by about eighteen earths. When speaking of solar cyclones we must not imagine that they are like the ones we have here on earth. Should a solar cyclone strike the United States, in thirty "seconds all the country between New York and San Fram-iseo would be float ing away into space in the shape of a vaporous cloud. The terrible friction would ignite everything. One of our cyclones may travel fifty o- one hundred miles iu an hour, but a solar cyclone at the rate of 120 miles in a second would do infinitely more damage than one hundred cyclones could do. A Large Fruit Farm. The fruit farm of R. McKinstry, near Hudson, New York, contains .'W.O00 trees, his entire farm of 300 acres being planted with fruit trees. He has 7,000 trees of Rhode Island Greenings and the same number of 13a4dwius, the total number of apple 'trees being 20. 000. Mr. McKinstry has 4,500 cherry trees, the largest 'number of any single variety being S00 Black Tartarian; 2,000 pear trees, "700 of which are Bartletts, and he has 200 each of Seckel, Sheldon and Aujou. There are also 1.000 Concord grape vines. 1,000 peach trees and 200 crab ap'ple trees; and last, but by no means least, the highway through his domain is liued with 4o0 maples.
