The Oregon State Normal school at Jtfonniouth will open its second session on Tuesday, September 18. Disbrow, the only one of the es caped Salem convicts at large, has been heard from near Crescent city, Cal. One of the workmen employed on the 0. R. & N. dock had his foot badly mashed yesterday afternoon by a falling timber. The first shipment of this season's wheat has been received at Portland. It is of fair quality and is quoted at 1 521 per cental. E. C. Holden advertises special auction salo at his auction rooms this morning at ten o'clock of smuggled goods and sundries.

King one of the clearest headod lecturers in the field delivered an address at upper Astoria last even iig that was one of tho most convinc ing arguments ever adduced in sup port of the cause ho so strenuously advocates. Tho Uautornia hsh commision have stven deputies, and two sloops at work in an endeavor to stop ille gal salmon catching on the Sacramen to river; the canneries nave raised a fund to aid in prosecuting all viola tions of the law. Trouble is antici pated. Livingston Stone has made proposition to tho California fish com missioners to furnish 600,000,000 salm on eggs for $2,500, and guarantees to nlace the voune salmon in such streams as the commission may des ignate. Of course, the proposition was accepted. Chaplain Scott, in the absence of Rer. Mr. McLafferty, will preach Sun day morning in the Baptist church, and deliver a lecture to the young peo ple in the evening upon "emergencies and how to meet them." This will probably be the last services the Chap lain will hold here for some time. borne o tho boys that struck m the Call office are dropping up this way. They say they were foolish and they are right about it. Whenever a young chap has a steady Bit, earning from S24 to $28 a week in an office that pars good wages, and gets his back up because he can't boss the of- See, a littlo prodigal son business will do him good. Tho Portland Y. M. C. Associa Hon have recently fitted up its rooms and made them more attractive for strangers and visitors, but stultified itself by announcing that "hoodlums1 will not be admitted. It is just such "I am holier than thou" kind of ac tion that is a stumbling block in th way of good. Real christian philan thropy would say "all are welcome, and provo it by actions. Liberty Hall was filled last even ing to hear further discuision of the woman suffrage question which was furnisked by extended remarks on the part of Mrs. Duniway, after which Edith Conn described the affecting farewell to Father Watkins ah. J. Curtis was called on and in straight forward manner enunciated the necessity of conforming to tie spirit of the age by giving women the ballot. A song by Pearl Holden was followed by some happily turned remarks by Judge Yocum who paid due tribute to womans ingenuity Miss Dickenson executed a brilliant solo on the piano, and after some fur ther remarks the audience dispersed Rogers Bros, plated ware and Wost- pew store.

He says he came hero to get work at his trade, being a painter; that on account of dis agreement with his wife he offered to take two of tho children, leaving the youngest in her care; that three weeks ago she came hero, and while here she offered to give him charge of the chil dren if he uaid her $15 a month; that he said he would give her 20; at that time paying her hotel bill and giving her $18; and, that to do what he thought his dutv in the case, he yes terday took charge of tho children, relieving tho mother of all future re sponsibility concerning them. This is his version of the matter, and to the publication of which he is entitled. The new Odd Fellows Hall is about completed, and in its fittings and appointments is not excelled by any similar institution in the country.

How The Firemen in the British Me tropolis Take Things Easy. A Chicago man who has been to London thus tells how they put out fires there. "Near the American Ex change, at tho corner, of the Strand and Adelaide street, is tho Chandos Btrect station of the Metropolitan fire brigade. Here are located a manual engine and a steamer and twelve or fourteen firemen. One day I chanced to bo passing tho brigade station when a young fellow, all excitement and per spiration, rushed up from the direc tion of Drury lane and breathlessly shouted: "Urry up 'ere! There's a fire just breakiu' hout in Drury lane. Look sharp, now!" The engineer who was in charge of the place turned to a group of firemen and said ' 'Arry, put on your 'elmet and go see what it is. .-rry proceeuea to aon me on gade tunic and the 'elmet and started off on a run in the direction of Drury lane. He was gone perhaps ten min utes. When he hove in sight again he had his 'elmet in his hand, the perspiration rolled from his flaming brow, and he was puffing like a loco motive. 'Come along,' he mauaged to articulate, it's a sure-enough fire. The engineer deliberately ordered the manual to be hitched up, and while one man went around tho corner to get the horses, two others put the pole in place and tho rest of the men put on their tunics and 'clmets. When tho team was hitched up they pulled out and rattled away over the pave ment to Drury lane. Do you know what happened them? No? Well, they got to Drury lane, found that the fire had spread from an upper floor, where it had started to a paint shop on the first floor, and the whole build ing was booming. Tiicir manual was of no use under heaven, and they rat tled back to tli station after the steamer. When they returned with tie steamer the fire had consumed tho interior of the building and its con tents, and there was no use for the engine. So they quietly returned to their quarters." East of Astoria. The collier Walla Walla, with two- thirds of a load, stuck Wednesday night at St. Helen's bar, and a barge was sent down yesterday to lighter part of her cargo of coal. As soon as she discharges the remainder of her cargo here, she will go to St. Helen's bar and repeat last year's sluicing operations. This work will take from six to eight days. At Swan island bar there is now twenty feet of wa ter, and tho river is six feet abovo low water mark. By tho middle of next month, unless something is done, ves sels drawing fifteen feet or over can not reach Portland. Owini; to the peculiar hard character of tho deposit Swan island bar, the city dredge alone is not able to remove it. The United States engineer has two dredge boats well adapted for this work the Osgood dredge and the clam-shell dredge. These can be used advantageously in removing the upper and harder crust, and the city's boat following them up will work well in cutting the channel to the depth of twenty feet. But the government has practically no funds. It will be legal, and it is in the highest sense necessary for the city council to appropriate from the Willamette river fund, an amount sufficient to pay the running expense of the government boats. Even with all three boats employed, the work must be slow, because so much time is lost in "ettim: out of the way of passing crafts. It will be humiliating next month whon the Northern Pact fie is finished and the city is full of eastern visitors, to acknowledge that Portland has not enough public spirit to clean her river. There are not ten citizens who will object to the appro priation, and the council should act in the matter at next Wednesday's meet ing. Qrenonian, 10. Ocean Park. Eu. Astobux The Ocean Park carapmeeting closed on Monday the Gth inst. Tho atten dance was larger than the friends of the enterprise anticipated. Nearly all sections of the country from Jackson ville to Puget Sound were represented The best of order prevailed from first to last. Though many left at the close of the meeting, many remained to enjoy for aJonger time the excellent advau tagesof this seaside resort. Some are thero to stay until September rains shall have relieved the interior of smoke and dust. Reenforcements ar rive to take the places of those who find themselves obliged to return home and business. to The fifty lots offered forsale at forty dollars each, were all taken before the close of Aug. 1st, (the day set for the choosing of these) and many applicants came later, but too late; the price for the second fifty had been fixed seventy-five dollars. Astoria was up to time, however, and fifteen of the first fifty are held by Astorians.
