Grand Opera house, as Norina, in "Don
Pasquale." The sang and acted the part
charmingly. She possesses a fine appear
ance is a natural actress, and dresses
-with good taste. She ranks among the
best American prima donnas, xne unal

clubs, composed chiefly of young men,
anil known as "plumed knights," aro al
ready being formed. The distinguishing
feature toemb to bo tho head covering,

whito plumo. A column of pinnies would
mano an imposing sight, provided tho
respective plumo-bearers kept step. Tho
organizations aro about the same in char
acter as the "Wide-Awakes M of 18C0,
who, with glazed cap and coat and torch
light, hurrahed for Lincoln end Hamlin
all over the Union. Tho plumo part of
the programme will hardly bo a special
feature of tho campaign in Astoria, the
most ardent admirer of the Prince Ru
pert of debate probably confining his
zeal to the purchase of a white "plug"
hat, such as was worn by each member
1 of the conquering delegation at Chicago.
Some of tho Republican papers, no
tably Harper's Weelzly and the New York
Times, havo bolted, and are doing all
they can to injure Blaine. They aro
itngry because the saintly Edmunds of
Vermont wa3 not chosen. Had Edmunds
been chosan, and the great newspapers
that favored Blaine announced that be
cause they couldn't have their own way
they would do all they could to defeat
Edmuuds, it would doubtless bo interest
ing to notice how the present bolters
would talk of '"traitors," and "rocreant
Republicans," ate It makes consider
able difference in politics, as in ether
things, j3 to the consistency of words
and nets.
In tne absence of Mr. Scott, of the
Oregonian, that paper is adopting a con
servative tone as to the Republican pres
idential nominee. Should Blaine be
elected, it can come out the morning
after and say, "We prophesied this, if
you remombor,when he was nominated."
In the ecnt of his defeat, that clever
journal can also say, with great consist
ency, "We regret 'this excHidingly, but
call you all to witness that wo toldjou
ho in tho early summer." In the name
of the Prophet figs.
Thcrtj is considerable talk about "hard
times." It is not confined to any one
community. From one end of the north
west to the other exists an unusual period
of dulnem. Coming as it does just after
the boom of S2, makes it comparatively
worse. And yet we don't know what
"hard times" means. No new country
does. It is impossible for us here in Ore
gon or Washington Territory to realize
to its fullest extent what it means to feel
"hard time.' To havo no work,littlofood,
poor prospects for things getting any bet
ter, and with it all the fierce competition
that makes life a straggle for existence,
is to havo "hard times.'' Here it is but n
temporary check, a brief cessation of ac
tivity, at tho worst enforced economy for
a season and in tho end a resulting bene
fit. Astoria is in a better Ux than a good
many of her sister communities. She
has a sure crop, an assured return, and
throughout the state comes from every
part most favorablo prophecies concern
ing tho j'ield for the year. Tho crash in
Wall street the other day was no more
than tho bursting of a bubblo on the
crest of n mighty wac; thero was just as
much money in the country the day after
as the day before. The failure of Vil
lard's schomes last winter took nothing
awav from Oregon that Oregon hadn't
made by the advancement of values con
sequent upon tboso plans, and can no
more affect tho psrmanent prosperity of
the oommonwealth than tho loss of a
loaded vessel could affect the next year's
salmon pack.
Tho proposed new routo from Oregon
to San Francisco is attracting ponio at
tention. A short time ago in conversa
tion with Colonel Hogg, tho president of
tho Oregon Pacific railroad, that gentle
man told tho writer that he proposod to
give the O. R. & N. Co. some lively oppo
sition, nnd stated his intention to make
it moro of an object for San Francisco
passengers to go and como via Yaquina
than via Astoria. The trackless ocean is
free to all without being restricted to par
allel rails of iron or steel, but though
the colonel is an enterprising man it
seems as though ho had an insuperable
task before him. The idea seems to be
that time and money may be saved on
the proposed new routo; that the passen
ger fiom Portland can go bv rail to Ya
quina, go aboard tho O. P. Co.'s steamer
there the next morning and reoch San
Francisco the next afternoon, spending
but ono night at sea. There aro a good
many things to interfere with the feasi
bility of this project; tho most prominent
is the fact that the condition of the en
trance to Yaquina is such that no vessel
approaching in size or comfort the
magnificent steamers that enter tho Co
lumbia can get there. Still tho enter
prise is so far advanced as to deserve con
sideration. Should the opposition lino
start it will have something to do with
hastening tho inevitable at Astoria. Tho
Queen, State and Columbia will prob
ably constitute the San Franoisco deet,
with a freight steamer in addition. As
toria will be made the terminus of the
ocean service, and tho long-hoadedness
of the O. R. & N. officials in build
ing at Astoria the finest dock
on the Pacific coast will bo made
manifest. The AlasJxin which has been
lving at Portland sinco coming round the
Horn will act as messenger from Astoria
eastward. Hying up to Portland with the
passengers from San Francisco that
go that far and farther, and thus
avoiding the iietention ana vexatious ae
lav occasioned by the shoaling of the
Columbia and "Willamette chonnols.
Competition and opposition stir up and
spur on all legitimate business and the
starting of an opposition line to Oregoa
would have a vivifying effect upon the
present company. Fares and freights
have always been something in which
Astorians 'consider they aro treated a
little unjustly. None of us quite relish
iliugins down 20 at 214 Montgomery St.,
San Francisco, and being handed a
ticket to Portland, especially if the Asto
rian is venturesome enough to ask for a
ticket to Astoria, and risks being with
ered ov 1110 superior oemg wuo voucu
safes the information that ho can get off
at Astoria if ho wants to. Besides it
looks a littlo unfair when one reflects
that ho can get a ticket to Seattle "cabin
passago, meals and state-rooms free,"
for $16. when it costs 4 more to a point
so much nearer the metropolis. So that
on the whole Col. Hogg's project is one
that is not "viewed with entire disfavor
bv Astorians.

- HOW we LAuan.
A laugh may convey all manner of sea-1
timents joy,- scorn or anger; it may bo
the most musical or most discordant of
sounds, the most delightful 6r the most
horrible which can fall upon our eara.
Contrast the happy latlghter of merry
children with the glibbering 'cry of the
maniac, or tho hoarse laugh of a tenant
criminal, tho musical ripple of cultivated
mirth with the roara of a tipsy crowd at
a fair.
A really musical laugh Is perhaps rarer
than a really musical voice. The giggle,
tho snigger, tho half choked laugh are
common enough; but how seldom do we
hear that melodious sound, tho laugh in
its perfection. It should not bo shrill,
nor too loud, nor too long. It should not
bear any double meaning, any bidden
sarcasm in its mirth. It should not be
so boisterous as to exhaust the laughter
and deafen the listeners.
Peg Woffington is said to have been
celebrated for the music of her laughter
on tho stage a most difficult accomplish
ment, for nothing (except, perhaps, a
sneeze) is harder to counterfeit than a
laugh. There are many vnrieties of
laughs. Thero is the -musical, cultivated
and extremely rare one, pleasant to listen
to as a chimo of bells. There is the glad,
if sometimos shrill,- merriment of chil
dren, the happiness of which condone?
its noise.
Thero is tho loud guffaw of the vulgar,
and the laughter which appears likely to
tear the laugher in pieces, causing him to
wipe his eyes of tor the explosion, is over.
Thero is tho laugh of embarrassment
when a shy person at a loss what to say
next, "remarks to he," as Artemus Ward
described it. There is the schoolgirl's
gigglo; and the schoolboy's sniggle, as he
reflects on some recently perpetuated but
still recollected pieco of mischief. There
is the chuckle of the successful man.
All these laughs bear sonde' family re
semblance to each other; they all, in their
degree, express sensations 'of pleasure.
There axe laughs more cutting than the
bitterest speeches, more alarming than
the cruelest threats. Satirical laughter
is most offensive, A laugh can convey
contempt which words would fail -to ex
press. Is any one proof against being annoy
ed by ridicule? Fven a dog is sensible
when he is being laughed , and resents
the impertinence, borne animals are in
deed quite as sensitive to derision as
human beings. Tho laughter of th un
derbred, which finds open amusement in
the minor troubles of tbeir neighbors
say the ridicule lavished on a sea-siok ar
rival at a pier, or on hapless foreigners
in an altercation- "with a cabman, or an
old gentleman who falls down n slide
also ranks among.-, laughs offensive."
Then thero is the laugh of incredulity.
When Tom goes to his rich uncle, full of
glowing descriptions of the perfections
of the lady to whom he is engaged, or of
the appointment which ho expects to ob
tain, does tho old gentleman damp his
nephew's ardor by a long harangue? No,
ho only gives a dry laugh: and Tom's
hopes of a check fall rapidly.
Too raro laughers are as unpopular as
too ready ones. A teller of good stories
never forgives tho man who does not
laugh at his jokes. Many persons havo
made their fortunes by laughing at judi
cious moments; applauding some poor
jest, or becoming convulsed with mirth
at a dull pun. To bo duly appreciative
of his patron's wit was an important part
of the duty of a hanger-on. With what
ready laughter aro a schoolmaster's wit
ticisms received by his class!
There is a story of a dramatic author,
whose play had been accepted, being' re
quested to make sundry alterations to
suit the taste of the actors. Among other
ohangea, the manager suggested that "a
laugh" should be introduced at the con
clusion of a speech of an out-going per
former; "it would give him a better exit."
The author pleaded that to admit 'this
alteration would spoil the whole dialogue,
but tho manager was urgent still.
"Think it over, and. do what you can;
B 'a position in the theatre demands
it!" When laughs are thus prized it is
not wonderful that persons who rarely
use their risible muscles aro unpopular.
