ODD Grand Jury Report. C. H. COOPER, GENERAL MERCHANDISE. ASTORIA, OREGON: "WEDNESDAY. AUGUST 15. 1KS3 The A. B. field leaves for Tilla ruook at air o'clock this xnoraiug. The Miles was delayed last even- ing, and will not get away until this morning. Capt. J. D. Merryman and family returned yesterday from a visit to the Willamette valley. It is considered certain that the two ends of the N. P. R. R. track will be joined by the 25th inst. Since the completion of the bridge across the Walluskie, travel that way has increased considerably. C&llender's minstrels will play here next Friday evening. Seats can be;procured at the New York Novelty store. Frank Baltes was married Portland last Thursday. He i3 m a clover, hardworking young man, and has a prosperous future before him. The editorial philologist of the Ifews has enriched English literaturo by the prescriptive right of gonitis in the coining of a now word "recrea tionist."

Aiusworth is reported to be the liveliest town in Washington Territory just now, being filled up with bridge builders, who will be thero till New Years. Three piers of the bridge ar0 done, and two more are being rapidly worked up. All tne iron is now on the banks, ready to be put in place After the bridge is completed Ains worth will be a small station. Yesterday, a vessel's yards were put to a novel use. Men at the wu- lamette Iron works were ready to put on the smoke stack of the new steamer building tor the fchoaiwater isay .transportation company, and as they hauled the boat alongside tho ship Geo. i.

The buildinor and machinery coat $3200, and were insured in the Phoenix and Home for S2000. Six cars belonging to tho 0. & C. R. R. Co. were lying on the side-track by the warehouse and were all burned, It is thought that the loss will include onlv the wood work of the cars. The origin of the fire is unknown. Taxpayers who like to see how their money is expended have an excellent opportunity now to visit the framework of the new school house and see how well it is put together. Plastering, liko Charity, ofttimes covers a multitude ot detects, but in this case there would seem to be no lack of thoroughness, and Astoria can count on having a good substantial structure in which to instruct the coming men and women. A Walla Walla Union correspon dent writes from Fort Colrillo the 10th inst: General Sherman and party left the west bank of the Co lumbia river, opposite old Fort Col- ville, yesterday morning at 6 o'clock. Itis understood that they will travel all the way to Fort Hope on riding animals; The general and party werSin the best of health and spirits and express themselves as well pleated with the country and their trip. Brown, the convict who was so uanosomciy taicen in by h. xranuen- atein, on his arrival here was married Saturday night to Mary Pollock, and the strange couple left on tho steamer Sunday night for, no one knows where.

On the 28th of last September, the comer stone of the Odd .bellows Temple in this citr was laid vith ap propriate ceremony, "and as da' by day the stately structure grew beneath the hands of the builders the question was "when will it be fiuished, and when dedicated?" The supposition was that by the 2Gth of April, the I anniversary of the foundation of the order, the hall would be dedicated; but owing to the scarcity of material and lack of laborers the building was not completed till the 1st of .June. Delay occasioned by the non-arrival of; furniture, carpets, etc., etc., also con spired to put on the day, till fin;iily,thc committee of arrangements decided on Tuesday, August 14th, as Dedication Day. To Ilwaco on the GVn. Miles, at seven yesterday morning, went a party of picnickers, and at nine, an- other detachment; at half-past eleven, immediately unon the arrival of the Wide West from Portland, went a third party, and joining at Ilwaco those who went earlier in the day had a season of pleasant diversion, returning at half-past five in the afternoon. Cards of invitation had been issued to the number or several hundred for the evening ceremony, and by eight o'clock the hall was filled to its ut most limit, and was the theme of favoinUo comment from all present. handsomest Odd Follows Templo west of the Rocky mountains, and in the glow of gaslight last eveuing, filled as it was with a large audience of ladies and gentlemen the scene was a brilliant one. Tho general air is one of imprcssiveness; tho extent of the room, the rich canopies, the lofty ceiling and exquisite fittings combine to form a splendid .setting for the "eeus ol ' . . e"vo,encc to j r , . do enacteu wiuun its wans At twenty minutes past eight the dedicatory ceremonies commenced by the entrance of the grand officers deputised for the occasion, immediately after which an invocation was uttered by Grand Chaplain lie v.

"Hail, i?estal Xayl was then sung by the Astoria Musical Society, and the dedication prayer was offered, when the society intoned "Bo Merci ful," followed by the closing address of the grand master. "Praise ye the Lord." was sung, and as the last strains of the exquisite melody died away, G. C, E. C. Holden came for ward and delivered an address which though necessarily somewhat extern pore, was characterized throughout by thought and feeling. At its close Mis3 Callio Munson came forward and with a few graceful words of presenta tiou on behalf of the daughters of Rebekah, placed upon the altar a ueautituuy bound Uible, which was duly accepted in words of thankful testimony by the grand master.

Circuit Court of Clat j sop county, Oregon: The undersigned, your" grand jury j for the August term, 1883, report as follows: That we have examined into all charges brought before us and have found indictments in such cases as seemed to us proper. We have visited the various county offices and, so far as we were able to judge, tho officers are properly per forming their duties. We have inspected the city jail and find it iu a fair condition, but would recommend that both jails be proper Iv cleaned and the tal!s whitewashed. We further recommend that the court- t' court take proj.or means to provide an adequate water supply for the county jail. There is no water in the building except such as is carried there, and as a result it is in a filthy condition. Very often innocent per sons are confined thero as witnesses and a proper regard to the rights of such persons, as well as humanity to those confined on account of crime, imperatively demands that water should be plentifully supplied and more frequently used in the building than it is at present. The condition of the public roads is as good as could be expected, consid ering the nature of the country. There arc but few county poor and they aro well taken care of. Having now completed our labors wo respectfully ask to be discharged for the term. Dated this 13th day of August,1883. .lOHK MaTIKK, Foreman. Court Proceedings. Tuesday, August 14.

Attracted by our bus in ess facilities, our genial climate, aud evident future, numbers of people are looking out for permanent re3i dences, while of the many who havo looked upon Astoria as but a tempo rary place of residence, the great pro portion have concluded that they can not do better elsewhere. Looked at as au abstract proposi tion, that is what keeps anyone where he is, that is what retains him in the position he then occupies, the realiza tion that all things beiug considered lit is doing better where he is than he would do elsewhere. It is one of the most important motives of human ac tion, ami underlies every movement in life. Papers published along the line of the Northern Paoific It.

Last Friday the contractors on the Crow creek tunnel on the Oregon & California extension, reached daylight near the center, and will have the tunnel ready for the track layers in about ten days. Tho perforation was ,800 feet, and is the longest tunnel on the line, except the one at the Siskiyou mouutains. To au Ort-joman reporter who applied for news con cerning the progress of the road be yond this tunnel, Manager Koehler gave the following information: tne grado and the high structures between the Gravo creek tunnel, which was finished early in July, and tho Crow creek tunnel, a distance of seventeen miles, aro finished and track laying will proceed with only slight interrup tions to urave ureoic. inere win probably be no serious delays in hnishmg tho line between uienuale, the present terminus, and Cirants pass, ninety-eight miles south of Roseburg. Regular trams will not run beyond Glendale until the road is opened to Grant's pass, which will be done about the middle of October. From Grant's pass to Ashland, a dis tance of forty-fivel miles through Rogue river valley, the road is easy of construction, and it is expected that the line will be in operation to Ashland by the end of the year. Thirty-two miles of road lxtvnml Ashland will finish tho Oregon and California company's share of the line connecting Oregon with Ualuoriiu, but these thirty-two miles are in the SiBkiyou mountains and quite as difficult of construction as in any like distance through the Cow creek hills. There will be six tunnels, aggregating G100 feet in length, the longest hem. a little over 3000 feet. OHr Prosrcsji.
