costly stores of various goods, tin, sol

a considerable plant. Though it is to

In no depjatment of the iHisiiieSri is

nuuicfactorv. A considerable stmce in
ewv canucrr is devoted to the inanu-
faoture of cans, and anyofMj wimj has

superintendent takes th finished can,

etc, etc. The can are well made, and

any deft ct in that branch of manufac

daction in tlte jrice of furnishing the
30.000.000 cans that are filled at Astoria

It is now iu "contenijiltitiiiu to start a
manufactory r.t Astoria by the Pjicific
Can CiMupiiny of Jim FrancteW. The
intention is to snjiply cjuls to the Co
lumbia river canneries at ltter quality,
an at a cheaper rate than the canneries
themselves manufacture them. It is a
noticeable fact that thero is under the
present aysteui an unr.vdable waste;
the refuse which accumulates at every can
nery in the shape of heaps of rasty tin
scraps can, it is aaid le utilixed by this
cosnpituy in the manufaciure of othor
articles and thus entail a great saving iu
that rasprct. Xcgotu-.tion are now in
progress" looking t tlie starting of a
factory lo turn out tlie cans by wholesale.
The patent under which they are to lie
made Is held by Norton Bros., of Chicago:
the cans are made entirely b3' machinery,
and thirty men can turn "out 1-10,000 fin
ished cans every day. Tlie cost of the
cans, including' tope, is staled to be $1!)
per thousand. !
AxoniKR IxvExnox. At the Astoria
Iron Works the regular amount of
work goes n. Tlte foundry and ma
chine shop are kept busy and a fine grade
of work turned oat. The latest invention
of Janw-n's laity brain is a can-o)deri&g
machine, which Ataea l ox is pultnu in
his odd minn4 c iu constructing. It is a
half circle of c-st-imn to be set over a
brick furnace, and to hold molten solder,
in which tin' can l evolves. The cans
eonut sliding down an inclined plane, are
caught by transverse linger and whirled
arouiwl t he .-ef t hing ring until complete
ly soldered ami then dropped into a bin
below. Thus far it is purelv experimen
tal, but there seeius no leuaou witv it
shouldn't answer tlte purpose required.
Last season a .New York party named
ISiirtf was here lo kim? up an alleged in
fringement of iatenl concerning a sold
ering machine iu operation. The appa
ratus now being built ig intended to do
the work in a 1 letter and consequently
more satisfactory manner.

AH SIN'S SUSDAY-SCHOOL.
Abaead-tlyed PnpHs Who Flirt With Their
Teachers.
"C. A. T." Cat "D. O. G." Dog. This
is the way the Chinose Isundrynian of
the poriod begins to leam English. He
learns it out of a child's primer, and his
teacher generally a good-lookingyouiig
woman who thinks it great fun to try and
enlighten the heathen every Sunday af
ternoon. The mission Sunday-schools for the
heathen Clnnoo arc nearlv all taueht
gratuitouslv by young ladies under the
direction of a superintendent. There are
several of these mission schools in San
Francisco.
The Chinaman wants to learn English
for commercial nnmoses. and he is verv
glad to learn it from the lips of a pretty
it is a very amusing sigut tnis um-
nese mission school. Pigtails, oiled silk
tunics, embroidered toswilh thick white
soles, form a pleasing contrast to bangs,
frizzes, Gainsborough hats, fluttering
ribbons and black silk niittp. The girls
take the matter seriouslv, from the scho
lastic and religious standpoint, but the
laumlryman regards it in the light of
flirtation.
The same Chinaman w!m will stand up
with the school and sing "Hock of Ages'
in Chnu se, looking as pious as a tlieolog
ical student, will sit down by his bt-ue-voU-nt
voani! teacher and lead the con
versation round, as far as his English
will carry him, to his worldly prospects
and his ambition for matrimony.
Uue tjav Chinese deceiver gently inti

suit of a wife a "Alebcan 7 wite. lie

kerchiefs upon her, which she accepted
ixscause alt the others did. in acoordauce
with what she supposed to be Chinese
custom. She took groat pains with her
pupil's English and taught him useful
sentences, such as "Some American men
are good: somo American men are bad."
In which original sentiment tlie youth
heartuy concurred.
This vouii" man looked about sozteen
and had the merriest little countenance
and the most ingouious manner imagin
able. But behind it lurked duplicity and
craft.
"Teaclier, I own a laundry make fif
teen dollars a week."
Teaclier "That is good, Lung; you will
be a rich man.''
Chinee "You no call mo Lung my
name uuoug iiuug. in umna voung
ladv no call man bv last name.
Teacher is silent, much abasued at
this reproof. Meditates over the fact
that wisdom issues from the lips of
babes, sucklings and Chinamen.
Chinee 'Teacher, keep mv monev m
tomato c?n under board in back part of
shop. Melicau man like to find it, ok?'
Teecher suggests that it would lie ks
well not to enlighten "Melican man' on
