The tugs Bronham and Astoria were called to pull at the Thurlund Castle j'esterday at high tide. They will try again to-night, and if they fail to pull her, two hundred tons of the cargo will be lightered. The Thurland Castle still sticks on the bank near the month of Tanzy. The Mary Taylor, Argonaut and Alice were pulling at her Tuesday night. The cargo will perhaps have to be lightered to get her off. The announcement that Judge Parkers new steamer would be 1 lunch ed yesterday was premature. He has concluded to place the machinory and boiler in her as she lays. The launch will, therefore, not occur till top of high tide on the next full moon. Messrs. J. H. and W. A. Robb, brothers of the late J. W. Robb, also Mr. D. C.

It is indeed a sad mission. In another column we reproduce from the Science Advocate somo excel lent maxims, alphabetically arranged, to facilitate their being easily remem bered.

Tlie Seattle IntellireiKMjr tolls of a gent'oinaii-who is now a firm believer in the value of advertising, because of a highly profitable venture that he re cently made iu thai diiectioH. There is a gentleman in Port Townaeml who was convinced equally as iowerfully last week, though in a different way. He had arranged for St. Patricks tail, and went to the expense of hiring a hall, music, otc. Not deeming it nocoasary, however, to get posters printed or a notice inserted in the local paper, he sunpiy wrote out a few notices and posted them. The result was a flat failure by reason of noil at tendance, and consequent pecuniary loss. Next time he will adopt a dif ferent course. Jesse Blalock, father of Dr. N. G.

J t became necessary for the Chronicle to speak of this uiatter last year. The guilty parties had better take this as a hint to desist. The trout season has fairly opened in Columbia county, and the amateur anglers are rehashing their old stories of big fish caught and lost. If this paper has been noted for any one thing more than another the Chronicle remark's, it is for truth in the matter of fish stories, and this brings us to what we started out to say. Judge Raker went fishing the other day and caught some fine, fish, the largest measuring about fifteen inches in length. It was a speckled beauty and gave us a cat like desire for fish. --For the (Senuiue J. 11.

CroM- examined: Hiard the stej iu the hall la-fore the party went down stair. My first impression was to go to the stairway myself but the step quick ened almost to a trot; next to look out at the frontdoor to see who came out. Could iit, under all circa instances be sure of Robeson walk. There is an I awning, probably eight feet wide, Robc- .son came out iroin iiimer me center 01 the awning. I .tood there just about lng enough for a man going down the steps to get there. RoncMUi went diag onally across tla street, and did not turn around. 1 was watching to see who came out from under the awning. He was under the iulluence of liquor the night before in Spexarths More. Direct: I low long after was ikiIici nidified ? About fifteen minutes, found Cinder. Discovered Robb alamt thirtv- three minutes past three o clock. In fif teen minutes afterwards Policeman was found and notified. Cro.ss examined: Robeson walks very much the same waj all the time -nervous, quick step. J. Q. A.

Saw him and heard him at Spcxarth's. Could not recall his particular language on that occasion. P. II. Fox swern: Robeson made threats to me 011 2:d. 011 Main street that he had a great mind to go to Robb's lioiibc and kill him. Dr. W. D. Raker testified that iqoii examination of the body found gun shot wound tatween first and second ribs; found the ball beneath the skin ou the back. Extracated the ball and found it had come out between the fifth and sixth ribs. Wound was necessarily fatal. Recognize this as the ball 1 cut out. C. II. Coocr testified that he saw Robeson the day before Robbs death. Heard Rolieson say that before to-mor row night he would make somebody kick their last kick. Asked him who, and he replied: Never mind; you'll know before to-morrow night. A. (J. Spcxarth testified that on the 25th Roluson came to his store to buy a Colts revolver about 2 o'clock p. 31. "He gave him a revolver, a box of carti ulges and a 7-inch knife (hown in court and identified.) There was no conversation. He wanted to purchase the articles, and said 1 would have to charge it ; he would nay it. From the time he got them till he brought them back was about two hours. When he took the pistol he loaded it himself entire. When he re turned il, it showed that it had been fired since he took it away. Could tell by the smell ami running a rag through the barrel. 'After I heard of the tragedy of Robbs death I went ami examined the pistol carefully, and found it had recent ly been fired.it being iowder-stained and foul. 1 recognize tho bullet produced as identical with cartridges sold to Robe son, the same size. When he brought back the pistol and knife he placed them on a table iua room adjoining the store, and said eome here, to me. lie said, now I am going to Mr. Taylor's office anil lake out an execution and levy on Robb's effects. I said: O'pshaw: and placed the pistol on the shelf. Did not notice any change in the scabbard or the knife. Cross examinatien: Am certain of the time of day when prisoner got the pistol. Know it was returned by four o'clock because 1 was down to Case's store. ! ir.-4 heard 01 I lie. murder in a cigar store on Chenamus street. Did not know of it .when Robeson returned the nistol and knife. Examined the lustol perhaps not five minutes after Robb was killed. Robeson gave no reason why he wanted to return the pistol. I). 1 1. Welch sworn : Saw Robeson on 2."ilh at corner where Robb's office Is. Went to court house and returned. Saw Officer Cinder and Chief Barry with Rolieson under arrest, about one-half or three-quarters of an hour after saw him at the stairway. Cross examined: Saw him as 1 was opposite the Occident, about half way across the street, as I was going into Warren and Eatons store. Robeson was at the southeast corner of the building, going toward the stairway. AFTKHXOOJf SESSION. J. J.
