O' $fo gaUtj gteian. ASTORIA, OREGON: TOFSDAY ..DECFMBEIttS 14 CJohk sold ns low as sis cents a bushel at Sutton, Neb., -week before last la? Nebraska people are burning corn for fu2l, bacausc it is cheaper than coal. The number of immigrants to this country this year has decreased 36,000 from last year. Oesqox salmon is selling in New York at from 25 to 85 cents per pound. Kennebec salmon are selling for 75 cents per pound. It has been decided by a Pennsyl vania court that ice cream comes un der the bead of "dressed victuals,1' and can therefore be lawfully sold there on Sunday. - m - JBeecheb made a speech in Ply mouth church last Sunday in which he said that if his congregation didn't like his action in the late presidential election and wanted him t' resign he would resign. There woulG appear to be great religious progress in Portland and throughout the northwest these times, says the Oregonian. Every day for months has seemed like Sunday, and it is getting '"more so." The Chinese soldiers' uniform con sists of a blue tunic and as many more clothes as he feels like getting inside of. A good many of them use their Bhoes for breast plates and stuff cot ton in their ears to keep from being scared. In the parlance of the day, it is fashionable to make frequent use of the word "quiet" People talk about a quiet wedding, a quiet dinner-party, a quiet ball, etc In fact, anything that is quiet is popular. Cut this out and show it to the baby. . . Last -week the Eel river and Eure ka railroad in Humboldt county, Cat, was open to passenger traffic It is a broad-guage and intended to be a link in the San FranciBco and North Pa cific It is thought that the road will be extended next year to TJkiah, Men docino county, and eventually to the Oregon line. ! A TWO-AKD-A-HALF-rEAB-OIiTJ child recently arraigned in a Ticks- f5I;SB., court for killing a pup- "Wben asked if she had killed juppyshe said "yes." The jus found -her guilty and fined her kwith the alternative of going to Fjr thirty days. Her father paid 10 and took his child home. Pheee is a small rivulet near Dor- ley" b mill, in Irwin county, Ga., It is a puzzle. The stream is gov ed by the moon during.dry weath- At tLe last quarter, new moon, first Quarter it is perfectly dry, aspsT moon increases it begins inn and at full moon it is running Jly and then gradually declines rith the decrease until it runs dry. ?nE Bayard family has been well kesented in the senate of the Unit- itea: The grandfather, father rancle of the present senator cred- isecred their respective years, resent Senator Bayard and were members of the sen- te same time. This is the mce on record "where the jon represented the same . same time in the senate. x English writer holds that the ad id physique oflLBAglish race Js in that tscats eat the Id mice; the field mice would de- y the red clover, which gives its Sritions quality to beef; the English the .product of roast beef; he multiplicity of old maids is firect cause of the vigor of the (h nation. &t -exposition visitors to New iaus are astonished, on disem- irking-from a steamer, to find that fthe sewers are open streams of water at the sides of the streets, and run ning away from the river instead of toward it; to see the wells built up from the ground, not dug into it, and to learn that the cemeteries are ver itable "cities of the dead," the tombs being little houses with gables and roofs, and arranged in avenues and squares. A move having been made in Seat tle -to "boycott" the Post-Intelli gencer, that able journal found friends who immediately adopted retaliatory measures. At last accounts the Post- Intelligencer had the best of it, but that usually clever journal is making a mistake in publishing the names of those who order their advertisements out. That is something any man has a right to do, and it -is beneath the dignity of a .newgpeper to attempt re prisal Tn this we speak' no less from sxptrwnce than observation. NEW TO-DAY.
