Literary Item. Mr. Elihu Yodder, the well-known American artist, lately returned from Rome, has boen working since last summer upon a permanent cover For the Century Magazine.

The usual afternooon display of rainbows on the Columbia was varied yesterday afternoon by lateral lines of fog that ranged themselves in masses of pearly gray above the pines, and gradually settled down over land and sea.

The Oregon short-line surveyors camped at Boiae, says the Democrat, oa Sunday. They .vill work on down to the mouth of the Weiser and then return.

In consequence of com-j IJUUiib iiul uuui nnuni iwuuii uu jiaii appearing to prosecute the same th-j beard did not take any action in the matter. The board now proceeded to investigate the charges of Henry Howitt consigneo of British bark Sauton vs. E. J. Moody, river pilot. The following witnesses were called and their testimony taken, viz: Capt. Thos. Rodgers, master of the said bark Santon; Capt. E. V. Parker, master of the steamer Clara Parker; I. S. Gragg, mate of the steamer Clara Parker; E. J. Moody, defendant in the case. After hearing the evidence aud .inly considering the case the board found as follews: rixmxos OK THF. KOAKll. In tho matter of tho charge of Henry Howitt, consignee of thr. Brit ish bark ''Santon," vs. E. J. Moody, Columbia river pilot, after thorough investigation we find that E. J. Moody went on board the bark "San ton" on November 7, 1881, whilo lying at Astoria, and offered his services as Columbia river pilot, which were accepted, aud that said bark proceoded on her way to Port land with Pilot Moody in charge, and that during the time that said Moody was in charge f said bark, on the 7th day of November, he was intoxicated and incompetent, aud on the morning of the 8th of November, in conse quence of sai 1 Moody being still under the influence of liquor, said bark was stranded and incurred an expense of 8922 DO, and wo find him liable for the above amount with costs of suit. We thorefore revoke E. J. Moody's branch as Columbia river pilot. It appearing that Pilot A. V. Hewitt is not connected with any steam or sail pilot boat, and has more over left the pilot grounds without the consent of this board, the secre tary was instructed to notify tho said Hewitt, that his branch as pilot on tho Columbia river bar U therefore revoked. After transicling some mi nor business the board adjourned, sine die. S. T. MpKkax, Sec'y.
