To be Beadjr for Use December lit, ISSt. Thero is nothing succeeds like success. Whether a man runs a bootblack stand, a newspaper, a steamboat, or a quartz mill, if he runs it well and gives satisfac tion, he, is bound to win. Two years ago Capt. Scott put the little steamer Fleet wood on the river between Portland and Astoria, and immediately scoured 0 lib eral patronage from the traveling public on the lower Columbia, who appreciated fast time. He run his boat in the interest of U. B. Scott, primarilj, but in such on accommodating way that every one felt that it was a convenience, and the success, of the enterprise has been unparalleled. Last year the O. R. & N. company put on the Wide West, and again this season, running the same days as the Fleetwood, and giving Astorians tne best river service of any community in the northwest. That company has been en terprising in all its dealings with this community, and Astoria appreciates it; but it is not forgotten that the Fleetwood runs right along, summer and winter, seaside or no seaside, and whether it be January or July, gives a man a chance to go to Portland, transact his business and return the next day. Add now Capt. Scott and his con freres design building a new boat, which, they propose to outrun any craft on the Columbia and make the 110 miles between hero and Portland in five hours. The plans show that she is built for speed: Sbo will bo 170 feet in length, 23 feet beam, and is calculated to draw only 8K feet. She will be a stern-wheeler; her wheel will be 24 feet in diameter (the ijurline's is l3h and It is intended that the wheel Bhall make SO revolutions a minute. The boilers will have 280 tubes, the intention being to make steam ranid ly. The engine will have two 2 inch cylinders, and an 8-foot stroke. The main hall will bo 119 feet in length; there will De twenty nneiy ntted stateroom q, and the building and appointments of the vessel are intended to be first-clas3 in every -respect. The contract was signed yesterday for the building of the entire vessel. Her hull will be built at East Portland; the Willamette Iron Works will build her machinery, and it is calcu lated that on December 1 she will make her first trip from Portland to Astoria. The estimated coat of the vewel is $35, 000. OUI1 OLD TUE FRIEXDS. TLe Venerable Wlttlclims Without Which the Funny Mia Would Suffer. The same ancient and venerable witti cisms appear at regular seasons of the year with a punctuality only equalled by the visit of the bill collector or the return of the July salmon. We have been in formed for years that the taste of the average young woman for theater tickets and oyster suppers is tho cause of that financial ruin that of ttimes overtakes the young man in the morning of life. We have read of the deep-laid schemes of the young husband to escape from the do minion of his mother-in-law, and of the dire failure of his plans. This seemed funny for a few thousand times or so, but at last it began to seem as if we had heard that joke bofore, and upon reflec tion all its effect was lost when sober second thought forced us to the convic tion that the son-in-law is as often a nui sance to the mother-in-law as the mother-in-law to the son-in-law and probably oftener. Then there is that hugo joke about Chioago girlB having large feet, and that other one about the love of girls for pie. "Why should they not love pie? Looked at from -an economic point of view pie is very filling for the money. If pio is eat en, however, as it is made in some locali ties the matter is by no means a joke, and the eating of that luxury is a very serious affair. At present the two standard jokes are the ice-cream joke and the charming and most exquisitely funny story about the husband trying to get his wife to go to the country for her health, while he re mains at home and paints the town red. These witticisms have seen long service, but yet hold their own well. For all that we know, the ice-cream joke came over with the Pilgrim Fathers, and its an tiquity may be traced back as far as that of the Masonic order, whose fondness for cream explains the butter myth in regard to their-initiation. For Parent! to Bead. This is an age of many and cheap books and free libraries, and almost all topics are treated by specialists and within ordinary reach. But we cannot all have time and ability to master num erous subjects, hence demand for works of reference is now greater than ever. A busy man's cyclopaedia being what we need, is most nearly met in that of John son's. For family and school, as useful aids to children in their studios and general reading, we probably can never have any thing better. Parents, teachers, and others, engaged with or interested in the education of youth, cannot escape responsibility in re spect to the furnishing suitable matter and references, calculated to render genuine literature palatable, and to replace therewith the trashy elements that so largely engage the attention of young readers. Mr. C. H. Libby can supply you with the best, Johnson's, if you will mako your wants known by dropping him a card. Jiut Received.
