Leave orden at the Occident or B. F. Stevens fc Co.'s. Some men were rowing peacefully in a boat yesterday morning in front ol Flavel's wharf when three large salmon suddenly appeared and bit at them, at least so they aver. Self defense prompted them to prevent any damage on the part of the pugnacious fish and they were promptly dispatched. Mrs. 0. Brown received the sad nowe yesterday that her mother Mrs C. E. Whipple, of Vancouver, had died that morning. Mrs. Whipple was an esteSnieu resident of that place and had sufferet. from a protracted illness though her con dition was not considered serious. Tht family go to Vancouver on this morn ing's boat to attend the funeral, which will take place there. An item in yesterday's Northwest News stated that Capt. Fiavel had shipped 2XKj blooded cattle to Clatsop plains. This ib a pretty good sized herd, and if so would make considerable of n stir in that sec tion, but inquiry from the captain whe returned from Portland last evening, elicited the fact that he had brought down four Jersey cows of pure breed ant would place them on his stock farm at CJatsop. Those of our readers who like to see something really fine should call at E. C. Holden's to-duy and see the benutifu. carvings of Italian marble there exhibit ed. They are direct importations, art warranted genuine, and- include hand some vases, enargnes, urns, stands, on which the delicate traoery, the exquisite carvings, and elaborate ornamentation show the value and beauty of the work. The sale takes place next Wednesday. Might Hare Been Worse. At twenty minutes past ten last night the blaze of a burning building next to tha southwest corner of Benton and Con comly streets caused the cry of "Fire! Fire'.P' to resound through the streets. Hurrying to the spot the usual sight was offered of a score of half crazed China men flapping around lik6 so many chick ens with their heads cut off, while others were busy saving bedding and loose dun nage, not giving a thought to saving tht building from the flames which their thoughtlessness had caused. The build ings were poor affairs, mere shells, and blazed fiercely, the chief danger ly ing in the likelihood that surrounding property might catch; fortunately there was no wind, and though an unaccount ably long time was consumed in getting a stream on the building, when the men did get on the ground there was some lively work done. The buildings bumed were three in number, owned by Ah Kow, Bing Gee and Geo. Hill, and were, as far as is known, uninsured. The corner oc cupied by Alex. Gilbert as a saloon suf fered considerable damage from the breaking of glass and the transfer of stock in bottles, kegs, etc Considerable hard work was done and several of the boys got a thorough soak ing before the order came to "take up." By eleven o'clook the fire was out. It was caused by a lamp that hung just inside of the front door of the lower of the three buildings and which fell to the floor, the stupid inmates not having Sresence of mind enough to pitch it out oors, being probably too intent on saT ing their personal effects. Half an hour after the engines were housed 8 strong breeze sprang up from the southwest, which had it occurred at the time the alarm was sounded would have in all probability resulted most dis astrously. As at present arranged the fire alarm bell in the rear of the city halH&'about as good as no bell at all, It Cost Him Fifty Dollars. The warm rays of an afternoon sun played hide and seek yesterday on the costly frescoes which adorn the sides of the police court room, and the gulls that soar and soream above its wave-washed walls-chattered noisily at their soavenger work outside, inside there was an un nsually large attendance, the regular matinee performance being varied by the trial of a gentleman named Mclntyre on s charge of resisting an officer in the.dis charge of his duty. The action was a sequel to the midnight mash that was nade on Officer Steabb last "Wednesday when he undertook to arrest Dick Mo Oarron for alleged vagrancy at Wiseman's temperance parlors and got a benefit from -the gentry there assembled. The counsel for the defense argued at great length that there was no cause for action inasmuch as the complaint failed to make due and accurate allegement con cerning what his client was arrested for, fcul Judge Stockton overruling the objec tion the case proceeded. Officer Steabb tos 'the first witness, and gave his Tersion of the affair substantially "the same as narrated in Thurs 3&Y morning's Asxobiak, after which one Pierson was called who occasioned considerable merriment by his testimony. Fnr tha 'defense appsarod three veracious -witnesses besides the proprietor of the iexnperanoe parww, eu agreeing witn mat unanimity on a statement that was Si direct variance with the testimony ad duced by the prosecution. The defend--anf. vrat the last witness examined, and "when the defense announced its inten tion to test and counsel naa eummea op fni- thm aforesaid it appeared as though the Whole tnmg was out iuu uuseie&B fabric of a vision and that cruel wrong had been, inflicted by such unwarrantable 'detention. His honor, hoaever, seemed of an sntirely different 'opinion, and Ending the dependent guilty as charged, iljanrirf him in the sum of fifty dollars. Thecaaeof Moran on the same charge 90SM mp this i trseon. A MUEDEBOUS ATTACK. Bar;Iary and Probable Homicide. When F. D. Blako, the driv3r of tho Occident coach cams out at five yester day morning he found Officers Steabb and CarNon lifting a man up from John Rogers comer where he was lying in a pool of his own blood, it proved to be Geo. Gansz, who keeps the Orogjii m.trket next door, and who was suffc ring from a pistol shot in the head. Dr. Baker was summoned and rendered such assistance as it was possible nt the time to furnish. The wound from which the wounded man was suffering is a singular one, not the slightest mark being visible from the outside. The bullet which was from an ordinary revolver entered the left ear just inside the outer portion, and ranged downward, sinking and splitting on the occipital bone. The unfortunate man was conveyed to the hospital and in the afternoon Dr. Baker extracted a portion of the flattened bullet; the part which impinged upon and fractured the bone will be extracted to-day should the pati ent's Condition permit. The fact that Gansz .has had consider able trouble about his business lately im pelled many yesterday to the belief that he had attempted to commit suicide, but a careful examination of the premises by an Astobiak reporter indicates that lie vas overpowered and robbed b one or more burglars after a desperate'struggle. Gansz's story is that about three o'clock eatbrday morning he was awakened by che noise of something falling, upon whion ne seized his revolver which was lying be side him in the bed and raised up on the dge of the bed; that as near as the dim light would admit he could make out two men, both tall, one with a heavy black -no ust ache, the other without any beam jr whiskers; that on seeing him move they both dropped his clothes which they uudbeen ransacking and grabbed bin. one choking him, the other crying oic and in the tussle the revolver which he had in his left hand was discharged, aa above indicated: that he fell insensible. and upon coming to he crawled to the .street for assistance. Everything about the place corrobor ates the story; the appearance of tho room immediately after tne shooting showed that his clothes were scattered in heaps, as though dropped by same one who had oeen going through the pockets; the shell jr closet was emptied of its oontents, cooking utensils were scattered in every direction, and on the floor lay a teu doj ar gold piece, two half dollars and two two-bit pieces. Gansz says he doesn't ttnow exactly how much money he had on his person but is satisfied he had three twenty dollar gold pieces, some small old and a few dollars in silver; all this except what lay on the floor had disap peared together with a pin which he wore, ivro watches and some minor trinkets. Suspicion turned on a joung man named John Norton, who has bsen work ing for Gansz lately, and with whom hi aad considerable trouble, but Gansz says that neither of the men was Norton, it is probable that whoever did it reached Jown through the grate bars of the outer door, pushed back the bolt, the door not ueing locked, and thus effected an en trance, that they had no idea of murde-, out fearing detection determined U. jhoke the unfortunate man into insensi bility, when the revolver was discharged xith the above result. It was found ly ing under u double bed some distance icross tho room from the bed on which Gansz had been sleeping, with two chair bars empty, one still warm, and from tfhich tne bullet evidently came. Dr. Baker does not consider the wouuu necessarily fatal, but thinks he has about in even chance for his life. Tho officer aave as yet no clue as to where the vil lains went, or any indication as to who they were, but that it was a case of burg iury admits of but very little doubt. She Turned tha Tables oa Him. To chronicle half the funny things that happsn when most of the city is asleep and no one walks abroad except mem bers of the owl club, would exhaust tht patience of many of our readers and arouse the ire of more, but there was fa little First ward episode last "Wednesday night that is too good to keep, so we tell it in confidence as it was told to us: A certain gentleman, who shall 1 e nameless, had had in the early watche of the night a little difficulty with tin partner of his joys and tho doubler oi his expenses, wuich resulted in a tempo rary divorce, and he liking not the inside of the nuptial chamber locked the out ride and sought the seclusion that u spare bedroom granted. His spouse in somo way unknown, obtained release and first supplying herself with a pail ful of ice-cold water she sought tht apartment where lay her sleeping lord and dashed the water over him. Ht sprang up in wrath and she fled fast and fur, awaking the drowsy echoes of tht night with her shrill cries. She was cap tured and reincarcerated, while the out raged citizen sought and obtained the protection of a policeman, who, aftei some parley released her on a promise of good behavior, but no sooner did sht nnd herself free than sb6 again went out beneath the silent stars and vexed the ear of night with vocif erous cries. Her husband and the guar dian angel of a policeman gave chise, bi t she eluded all search and after an hou s fruitless effort returned, to find that sle had gained admittance in their absence and turned the tables on the male mem ber of the Arm by locking the doors and nailing down the windows. In vain did he supplicate tor admittance; the police man forsook him and left him clad in woe and abbreviated garments to voie his smtow to the glittering orbs of night that twinkled as though their eyes were suffused with grief over the sad lot of poor mortals here below. It was not un til the rosy aurora of morning had begun to gild with glory the eastern sky that he was allowed to enter and then only up on solemn promise that he W-uld in fr tare behave himself as a staid, sober benedict should.
