The voung ladies in "Washington conn ty, are organizing, and are taking an ob ligation to marry no man who is not a subscriber to his own county paper. Their reasons are that anv man who does not take his local paper is not intelligent, or too lazy to read, and is not able or en terprising enough to provide this import ant source of information. The ladies consider these reasons sufficient to bar a man from matrimonial alliances. Among the passengers on the river steamor last evening was John Hobsou one of Astoria's oldest citizens, returning from a trip to England. Mr. Hobson went east fast fall with the rest of the Oregon pioneers, and having got to the Atlantic, kept right on across the ocean. returning on the City of Chicago on the 17th nit.

Despite the stormy evening the pleasant little M. E. church was com fortably filled last evening, the occasion being a unique entertainment known as "breaking the jugs." For some weeks past the M. E. Sunday school children have put their spare dimes and nickels into little enrthern jugs, and last ovening they were broken and the money counted. The exercises opened by the choir singing "Holy Spirit Help Us," Miss Dickenson accom panying on the organ, after which Scott Bozorth read "Order Up tho Cart ridges." ""Woa to them who love tho wine cup" was then sung by the choir, followed by a recitation, "Alcohol and Tobacco," by F. B. Elberson. Some of the jugs were then broken, the result being as fol lows, Cordie Robb, 2.53; Ethel 3Ierry man, L85; Minnie Childs, 3.GG; George Brown, 1,GG-, Jas.

"Come buy a jug"' was sung by members of the Sunday-school, 'also "The fire that Old Nick built, after which Cordie Robb told "How Jamie came Home," and Edith Conn in her inimitable style re cited "Pity the Drunkard." The enter tainment closed with tho singing of the Doxology. The receipts of the evening amounted to 4.0. This is the first enter tainment of the laud ever given in Asto ria. The proceeds will be devoted to supplying a handsome Christmas tree for the Sunday school. Ilronnln? of Ed. I'att?ron. The sad tidings wore rvceived at this placo last Saturday night, says tho Oya tcrvillo Journal, that Ed. K. Patterson, familiarly known as "Uncle Ed." had been drowned. It stems tlmt Ed. was on his way to South Bend with Fred Lobarl, in a sloop, and when off Bay Center, Lo bart went ashore with a lady, leaving tho deceased alono in tho boat. On return ing a short time after, Patterson could not be found, and a search ashore failed to reveal his whereabouts. On going to tho boat a second time, however, his body was seen a short distance away, and life "found to be extinct. He was taken ashore, and as soon as possible placed aboard of the Favor ite and brought to this place. arriving Snndav evoning. Tho funeral took place on Monday, and was numer ously attended lfy people from all ports of the county. The exact cause of his drowning is a matter of considerable speculation, but the general supposition is that he lost his balauco and tell over backward, and having on a heavy over coat was powerless to save himself. Mr. l'atterson came to tins coast m an early day. and quite a number of years ago to iuis county, wuore ne uas toiioweu ins trade to somo oxtont, that of shipbuild ing.

The vessel when built is designed to take the place of the Shubrich. which is becoming rather anti quated, niter twenty-six yeara battling with the breezes of this northwest coast. Tho Tom Coricin was built for this dis trict, and by right belongs at Astoria, but tho department somehow found out that she was a good seaworthy vessel, and so on various occasions have sent her as near the North Polo as Pacific waters allow. The Shubrick has done good serv ice, and hy tho time the new vessel is ready to tako her place there will be work for her to do. Pacific County "ews. Capt. Al.

The Dallas Sun, of Tues day, says: Last night a largo number of railroad shop employes were discharged, leaving but comparatively few men on the works in this city. "Wo presume no one knows how long the work will be sus pended, but wo hear it said, probably until some settlement ot the quarrel be tween the Northern and Central manage ments, which may bo by a new executive board being placed 111 fliarge, or conn deuce in some way established.

This, it seems, is quite enough to insure, the building of tho road Irom ltoseburg to Coos bay. in case it is built, the people whom it "will effect will no doubt have the kindest regard for Gov. Chadwick, who has succeded in getting capitalists interested in the road. "Wiske Lake. A correspondent of a Seattle paper says: The story of "Wiser lake comas to my mind to-day, as told by one of the old settlers, and it may bo of interest 'to some of your readers who know the lake, but have not heard why it is called "Wiser: Several years ago John Wiser, who lived in Oregon, came up the Nooksack to make a home for himself and his larce familv of children. "When he reached the neighborhood he heard of tho lake, and after beholding the beau ties of mountain and water and admir ing them, determined to make a settle ment, which he did, being the first settler on the lake, miles f rom neighbors, and in tno miast 01 a great iorast. r or moiuns he labored alone amons tho trees, clear ing several acres building a good log- nouse, ana planting out an orcnaru ana fruit beds.

"Wiser, instead 01 ebj otaer. The First X. P. B. B. Prenldent. Josiah Perham, tho first president of the Northern Pacific Railroad company, was a man of great energy, integrity and singleness of purpose. He was an en thusiast, but at the same time a practical man of business, and ho had tho rare faculty of communicating his enthusi asm to others. He was born in 1803, in "Wilton, Maine, and in his early business career first a country storekeeper, and afterwards the proprietor of a small woolen mill. Going into land specula tion in Maino, ho failed, but afterwards as a wool merchant in Boston, he was successful, and honestly discharged in full all the old debts from which tho law had released him. In Boston he exhibited a panorama known as "Perham's Seven-Mile Mirror," and organized cheap excursions from country towns into the city and back, selling tho railroad tickets and tickets to his show at the same time. These excur sions became so popular that he devel oped his system greatly, sold out his pan orama and organized excursion tours to New York, Washington, the White Mountains and other places. Ho may justly be called the father of the cheap excursion s3-steni. He became interested in the general project for a Pacific rail road at an early day. In 1SG0 Perham obtained from the Maine legislature a charter for the People's Pacific Railroad company, and organized the company in Boston. This was the predecessor of the Northern Pacific company. Porham's plan was to have his company adopted by congress as the ono to build the road to San Francisco, and, failing in this, he fell back upon the Northern route, of which he became an ardent advocate af ter the passage of the Union Pacific bill in 18G2. In 1SG4, after two serious efforts in "Washington, Perham secured the passage of a bill creating the Northern Pacific companv.and naming him and his friends of the People's company, with others, the incorporators. This result was a tri umph of perseverance, enthusiasm and devoted personal exertion. The company was organized in Boston, in the fall of 18GI, end Perham was chosen president. He had made the seri ous mistake of inserting a provision in the charter act prohibiting tho Is sue of bonds. thinking that this would popularize the scheme that he could raise the hundred millions of capital needed by subscrip tions to tho stock. Ho believed that ono million of the people could be persuaded to take one share each. This was the lame spot in his plan. The subscriptions wore not forthcoming, ho was involved in debts contracted to obtain the passage of the charter, and in December, 1865, ho was compelled to turn over the franchiso to an organiza tion of Now England capitalists and re sign .the presidency. It was alleged afterwards that the agreement with him was not fully carried out. However this may have been, the considerations ho received for surrendering the control of the lranchise was barely suthcient to dis charge his debts. Perham did not live to see the work of building tho Northern Pacific begun. He died in lbus, a poor man, dependent upon his son for support. His last days were embittered by tho reflection that he had spent many years of his life in an enter prise from which ho hod derived no bene fits, although he knew it was destined to make the fortunes of many who had home no part in its early struggles. As Ocegok Town Raided. Says the Boise Slaleman : From a gentleman who came up from Caldwell yesterday, we learn that a telegram reached that place stating that on Sunday afternoon a band of men number not given took pos session of tho town of Huntington on Uurnt river, Uregon, the point of junc tion of the O. S. L. and the O. R & N. railways, and committed several robberies of larco amounts of money. Among the rost it is stated that Mr. J. F. Fvfer; a merchant doing business at Huntington, wa3 robbed of U,OC0 in money, checks and dratts. Tho pay master 01 the grading and construction forces of the railroad company is also re ported for a large amount. Telegrams of seventy-five words wero promptly sent to all the stations along tho line de scribing the robbers and ordering the stoppage of payment of time checks Intense excitement prevailed at Caldwell, and the confusion was too great to allow more definite information to bo gained. .luu) uiuicuuoouuuiu uo a Limviy warn ing against like raids here and in other quarters.

Flsowhere in a condensed telegram 13 given Villard's version of his reasons for resigning. Perhaps the following from a recent Now York Sun may not at this juncture prove wholly uninteresting: "The uneasv feelinc in "Wall street con tinues to increase, and business grows more and more dull. The averagt rdaily transactions were again on tho decrease last week, and although the general tone of tho market looked steady, several specialties were very roughlv handled. T he YiUard stocks, the Union I'acific,nnd the Northwestern were conspicuous among them. The two last-named stocks had special reasons for showinc a de cline, and in the case of the Northwestern at least the fall is only temporary. But the Villard stocks merelv resumed their natural downward course, which was slackened for a moment bv the issue of the new mortgage. Now that the bonds are taken up by the creditors of that ill fated concern, tho stock held by them up till now must be sold, and last week's drop in tho price will probably go on with interesting velocity. There is noj more chance of stoppinc the fall in the Northern Oregon Transcontinental, and Oregon Naviga tion stocks than there was ol stopping Denver & Rio Grande in its "degringo- lade from 114 a share to its present price of .S21. Mr. Villard, tna leading spirit of the N. P. securities, has no more inducement now to sustain them than Mr. oerisboffer. the leadiue snirit of the D. R. G. securities had then.

They simply improved upon tho modus operandi estab- usueu uy repareu American citizens long before these two gentlemen were known anywhere outside of their native villages. Messrs. Gould, Fisk, Commodore Yander bilt, T. Scott, Commodore Garrison and Daniel Drew were tho American classics which the two gifted German students have tried to assimilate and imitate. They have succeeded better than any body could have anticipated. But there is nothing surprising m it to any one who knows the profundity of the German mind.' The Sample Copy Fieml. Recently it seems to us as though a large number of people throughout this country have nothing to do but to write postal cards to newspaper publishers, ask ing for a sample copy of their paper. This is a new and growing industry. Bill Nye expresses the sentiments of a good many long suffering men where ho Hays: It costs only one cent to get a samplo copy, and at that rate the average bore of this denomination expects to got a $J weekly one year for 23 cents. Of course t he sam ple copy free lunch fiend has to write each week and sign a different name, but that don t injure his feelings any. He has nothing else to do, and it keep3 him from ennui.
