The Tom Morris goes to Knappa this mornsnii ice permitting. Geo. Gansz has just received some fine pigs feet already cooked and spiced, from Sioux City. Yesterday was slushy underfoot; it was fine overhead but there were not many going that way. The subject of the sermon at the Pres byterian -church this evening will be "Saul, first king of Israel." The Shttbrick, which has been circulat ing around pretty lively lately arrived in from the stormy rock of Tillamook yes treen. The Walla Walla met with slight de tention yesterday afternoon owing to unavoidable displacement of the buoy No. 8, but got off all right at ebb tide and proceeded eastward. The ladies of the M. E. Church will give a sociable at the parlors of their church on Tuesday evening Feb. 18. A pleasant time is anticipated, and all are invited. Entrance at the east side of the church. A coroner's inquest ou the body of Charles "Wilson resulted yesterday in a verdict that the deceased was a native of Finland, aged 40 years, and that he died from heart disease. The body.will be in terred to-day. The Republican state central commit tee meets 'n Portland next Thursday. F. J. Taylor represents Clatsop county. The Democratic state central committee meets in Portland the following Thurs day, the 28th inst. C. H. Stockton rep resents Clatsop county. The minstrel matinee was fairly at tended yesterday afternoon, but the ar rival of the ocean steamer caused the performance to be materially cut; Mul doon did not appear, and at 2:32 the cur tain fell. The troupe left for Sin Fran cisco on the outgoing steamer. Rev. B. S. MacLafforty, of the Baptist chnrch, continues to-night, his lectures on Bible characters. His subject is 'Dan iel." r As a prelude to his lecture he will discuss the question, is the proposed mod ification of the twelve o'clock closing or dinance, a virtual abrogation of the same? At a meeting of Astoria Engine Com pany No. One, iast evening, to take into consideration resolutions in regard to the late Chap. "Wallman, a comm.ttee com prising Wm. Bock, L. E. Selig and F. "W. Surprenant was appointed to draft the resolutions. The body of the deceased is on the Reed, and when it will arrive is as yet undetermined. The entire depart ment will doubtless participate in the funeral. In'one of the schools the other day, the class in English grammar was discussing the difference between the words "like" and "lDve." "Now," said tha teacher, "we can like a tomato, but is it proper tojjav we can love a tomato?" ''No, it is not,' said a fresh young miss, "one can not love a tomato." "Why not?" in quired the teacher." "Because, you know, you cannot you can't well, you can,t hug a tomato'" Wheat Shipmests. It is said that wheat is being shipped to San Francisco from Portland on the O. R. & N. Co.'s steamers, there transferred to ships bound for Europe. Sibson, Church & Co. are said to have shipped 500 tons by the State of California on her last trip. Standard. The Columbia took out considerable wheat yesterday. A Very Pressing 5eeesslty. It seems to us that the present condi tion of the water works in this city is a very poor one. There is a good excuse for defective working during tho cold weather of last week, but that cannot continue to be an excuse. The mains and pipes should be put into good work ing order at ones. If money is needed we have no doubt hundreds of citizens will stand ready to pat their own pipes in, order; it is the business of the super intendent of the water works to see that the mains are. all right. . In other citie3 where water works are in operation let mains be broken, and the men who have charge of the water works are busy at once. This matter of water is an important one. Shuffling around with buckets and cans and pitchers, as though we lived m a little village, is no way -when a better way is feasible." The question admits,of no delay and should bi attended to at once. Oce&x and Hirer. Capt. Pohlman arrived in in good sea son with the Oregon, yesterday morning, and 'reported southerly weather all the way up; rain and mist a part of the time.' Capt. Bolles of the Columbia came downSvith his vessel at 2 in the after noon. He reported thick ice nearly all the .way down. When near Swan'Island bar he found a mass of ice stretching clear across the river. He put on all steam and drove the vessel through. The RtfB.. which had been lvinc? bv. waiting. started to follow in bis wake, out before going three boats' lengths the ice closed 1H, JU1UUJWK uu uuiu uuu laoi. iuo Columbia showed signs of ice on her bow which was scoured clear up to the hawse holes. In places where she had ripped through the ice cakes, great chunks had fallen on tha deck. A dis patch to The Astosiik a little later said that there was no show of getting down with'the river boat. It is almost need less to say that there will be no Fleet wood to-day. Eeicne Jnbllee Troupe's Performance. The coming performance of Rescue Jabtlee troupe at Occidental ball next Friday evening ia the principal topic of conversation. The talent displayed by the several members of the troupe at the two recent performances, on which occa sions the housa was crowded, insures tne ino&t hearty and cordial reception next Friday evening. The same careful study and perfect rendition of characters which made those performances the SU0W33 they were, will be evident in the ec-ming rendition of the standard Globe drama, "Nevada: or, the Lost Mine." This is a splendid play in three acts, and as tha following cast shows will be well performed througheut: Mosell (the principal character), Miss Alios Stock .torn; -Mother Merton, Mrs. Butler; Agnes Fairlee, Miss Hannah McCormick; Ne vada, 6. H. Stockton; Vermont, A. A, Cleveland; Tom Carew, Jno. Brown; Dandy Dick, F. D. Blake; Silas Steele, F. Ia. 'Farker; Jordan, the detective, Paul Parker; Jube, the darkey, B, S. WoKley; Chinaman, Ion Dolson. The play is of tne style of "M'iiss," Bret Harte's most fanciful creation, and is replete with drasatic iaUmt. BY TELEGRAPH. LATEST NEWS PEOH WHEEE.

The Times Berlin correspondent says: Bismarck has re turned to Herr Edzendecker, the German minister at Washington, the resolution on Edouard Lasker's death, recently passed by congress, as the position of Lasker in Germany was not Buch as to justify the resolutions. The Times adds that though this seems incredible, the fact is the relations of Washington and Berlin ore in a state of great tension, chiefly owing to the hog question. The Times concludes as follews: "One thing is certain, we have not heard the last of this Lasker incident. Americans are too proud, too sensitive, and too independent for that." . m What!

Astoria lith Feb. 1834- Two Solid Sen. "How many people have you in As toria?" asked an outward bound passen ger of an Ahtobian reporter yesterday afternoon. ''Something less thanC,0C0," was the rep'.y. "Indeed!" said Le, "it looks as if you had 60,003 from the crowd on the dock." Well, there was a large delegation, and the wisdom of the O. R. fc N. Co., in building such a large dock wa3 never more strikingly exemplified. Villard, in his comingj and gjingi never attracted much attention m Astonn. General Sherman and Henry Ward Betcber drew prettv Weil, but it is seldom tii..t a steamer lif.. tae Columbia out ward bound that attracted such a gathering as that yesterday afternoon. And it is seldom that a steamer sailed away with two such distinguished exponents of muscle as the Columbia. On board was the champion fignter of the world John L. Sullivan who goes back to aesthetic Boston with fresh scalns banciuc at his cirdle. Slcde the Maori, Taylor, McCoy and all the rest of the cr rowd were along. At Astoria, ro. Muldoou, the champion wrestler of the world, got aboard, and.if the passengers can only get up some kind of a match be tween the two they ought to have fun enough for the trip". In one sense it is amusing to read newspaper comments on Sullivan; what a "brute" he is; what a "shame" it is for people to go Jind see him: that if it comes to strength, a mule could kick his head off him, and so on. Like enough; and yet, after all, we confess to having a certain amount of admiration for the man. Tuere are about G3,000,0C0 people in this nation; that's u good many. Of theso millions, one individual stands out and savs. "I can whip ..nyotio of the other 0i,yy.VJJ9:" yju've got to admire ills -pluck. And lie proves that he can do it. Then you can't vory well help ad miring his prowess. Ho doesn't sit down m un obscure corner and say "I'm boss." if e travels around. He says, "Bring on your bullies; show me your biggest and toughest; trot out your hardest hitters.' And they come. In New York, Boston, Philadelphia, Chicago, Omaha, San Fran oisoo, Astoria, Seattle, wherever he goes, ae finds a man who is willing to stand up ibefore him, and who, if uo 'could only get away with him would be famous next morning, t'his is why a good many admire him. It doesn't make much difference; it is pre-eminence that commands admira viou; it is so with eloquence, tLe gift ol jong; brains; agility; sp-eJ; science, oeauty; smartness; it isaiwaysthe mobl eloquent orator, the finest singer, ti.e jrealest scientist, tho smartest of all that .v'ius the prize of pjpular acclaim. Men once made an archer emperor of Rome, because he could send an ' arrow taster and farther than any other man in Rome, and was, therefore, in their opinion, "the nob. est Roman of them .til." There's a good deal of that same feeling that has come down through the centuries, and the most of us have a lit tle of it. Should some one knock out oullivan and win the belt, the admiration .vould ba transferred to him. It's the vay of the world. Butter Hating. Some prefer it without salt, according to taste. Some prefer it seasoned with from one-third to one-eighth of an ounce to the pound of butter. Others one-half of an ounce to the pound. Some three fourths of an ounce to the pound. Some following the old fashion of salting use two ounces to tho pound. In using salt on butter, care should be taken to see that the salt is psrfectly free from bitter ing, or bitter sweet and to avoid tnis, the older tho salt the better it is for the outter. If the milk of a fevered cow is mixed with tho milk of a healthy cow, it will not produce good butter. If undue aaste in using the milk of a cow too vn after calving, and while fever is still iadicated in the bag, -it w.lt not make u butter, but will be cheesey. u working butter by hand the smell of the auuiau hand can be detected, it matters dot how clean the hands nny be, the more readily does the perspiration jt tho human hands affect the Javor of the butter. Wood padddles or rather passing the butter througu clear water should be used in making autter to free it entirely of its butter milk. The cream or milk should b j thor ouguly churned with a proper tempera ture and then gathered and beat with a paddle, and the butter-milk poured off otfore it becomes too cool, as this win prevent the butter-milk from beibg vorked into the butter in freeing it. After this, work the butter thorough with its required quantity of salt and thus let it stand over night and you will have butter that will keep. Some times a little pure sugar is worked in the butter jrith the salt which adds to its flavor, this however is a matter of taste. As re spects the color of the butter this comes from the feed of the cow. Sometimes it is too white, the use of a small quantity of carrot will correct this. The art of making good butter, can never be perfect. HOTEL ARRIVALS. OCCIDENT.

The Seattle Chronicle of a recent date says that on a petit jury in Whutcon seven, women and live men made up the pjnol for the trial of a charge against the Keeper of a bagnio.

Outfitting a Fo','. A scientist, while out in a boat one night on a river in Fiorida, was caught in a fog so dense that he could not see twenty- feet ahoad. The boatmen stopped rawing and said they would have to wait tor daylight or tnl tho fog cleared away, B they did not -know m what .direction to s:eer. The scientist showed them alu: echuco can do for u man in an emrency. lie sa.s: "I at once stood up in the boat and ualloou. Soon the echo ciuie back. PoiLt.ng in the direc tion from wmch the ecuo came, I said: There is tuo nearest land.' "Bowing half a mile m the direction of the echo, we soon reached the land and coasted' home. The boatiueu expressed Teat surprise that tney had been on the nver all tueir lives auu had never thought of so simple and easy a plan to nud the shore, wucn lost in a fog. A knowl edge of so simple a fact saved me many a dismal hour, uigut and day, too, en the river. Fisuermen to whom I have communicated this have told me a cnow.edge of this would have saved them from whole nights of useless toil, and would saved tueai hundreds of dol .ars in their business. Steamboat pilots may also be beuehted. 1 have s.eh taem run ashore with the echo striking them m the teeth. During a fog the atmos phere is so suturt'd with moisture that it is a much better conductor of sound than when dry. "Two resu.ts follew: First, sound travels faster, and hence the echo returns more speedily; and second, the to and is heard more distinctly.
