The Tacoma Savings bank has col lapsed. The legislature that closes to-morrow night will be memorable for what it didn't do. The Kiticardinshire cleared for Queens town yesterday with 72,430 bus. wheat, worth $51,322. Holden has an auction sale of furni niture. household goods, safe, etc., at 10:30 this morning. Inquiry from the leading canners re garding what is doing meets with one universal response 'Nothing.' The ladies of the Presbyterian church will have a social at Mrs. E. C. Holden'a this evening. All are welcome. One of the laws enacted by the legis lature this week raises the salaries of the circuit judges from $2,000 to $3,000 a year. The Welcome thinks, and rightly, that there ought to be a press association in Oregon. The trouble would be to keep out tho scabs. Simpson Bros, have bought tho shin Eldorado, lately offered for sale at Port Townsend. The vessel is now loading coal for San Francisco. Yesterday, the first day of Lent, was observed by appropriate ceremonies at Grace Episcopal and St. Mary's Roman Catholic churches. The bill to provide for a constitutional convention has failed to pass, and the matter will bo submitted to a vote of the people at the next general election. February is unusally rainy this year. It was unusually rainy last year and the year before, and doubtless will exhibit unusual symptonBof dampness next year. During '84 it cost Portland $54,000 moro to run its city government than all the rest of the state. Multnomah county taxes were $403,000 for tho year, being $31.70 for each city voter. PEBSOXVL.

Smith, of Clatsop plains, who has been quite ill with pleurisy, was in the citv yesterday, and is convalescent. Of Age. Twenty-one years ago to-day the be nevolent order of Knights of Pythias was founded. The principles of the order have attracted to it hundreds of thousands of men all over the United States, and it is of age to-day, half e million of mem bers in every walk in life attesting its strength and usefulness. In accordance with general orders the divisions of the Uniform Rank all over the United States will parade to-day. In Astoria is the only division of that rank, the highest in the order, that is in the state, Astoria Division, No. One. The members will parade in full uniform this afternoon, the line will form in line, to be formed at Pythian Castle at 2:30. Several knights of high rank are expected from Portland and if the prevailing dampness will let up for an hour or so there will be a fine parade. Two More Conntles. The now county established east of the John Day river is named after Col. Gilliam, who accidentally shot and killed himself in that region, in the year 1848, at tho close of the Cayuse war. Gilliam county contains about 46 townships of fine agricultural and grazing land. The land is mostly the bunch grass table land, of easy cultivation, and produces from 33 to 40 bushels of wheat to the acre. Tho principal trading points are Alkali and Fossil, but other towns are Sjringing up rapidly, such as Condon, lem, Olex, Eight Mile and Rock Point. Adjoining Gilliam county on the east is Morroar county, oarved mainly out of Umatilla, with Heppner as the principal town and county seat. This county is named after Captain Jack Morrow, a mean be r of the legislature from Uma tilla. Tho principal settlement in both those counties has been made within the past three years, exoeoding anything of the kind known in the history of the state. St a tesman . A celluloid pin lice. Found.

Snrprenant has received a curios ity in the shape of n newspaper printed on a good quality of paper made of saw dust. It is almost a dead white and has a good texture. The name of the news paper is the Rutland, Vt., Herald. The paper upon which it is printed is the product of the roller pulp machino in vented by G. II. Pond, of Glen Falls, New York. By it, sawdust, shavings, chips, pieces of wood, or any refuse of saw mills, can be made into a pulp of fine, clear fiber in a short time. Practi cal experiments have also proved that begasse, the debris of sugar cane, cotton stalks, wild hemp, flax and hemp tow, with the stalks mixed with it, can also be made into pulp with this machino and process, thus utilizing a new wasto pro duct. The manner of reducing sawdust or shavings, pieces of wood, or other fibrous materials to a perfect pulp with this ma chine is to press the material heavilv with rollers, which pass over it inces santly as thej revolve within an inclosed cylinder, whoso inner surface forms an endless bod on which tho rollers involve, tho material being continuously forced under them by its circulation. "The dis integration is assisted by the action of steam under pressure of fiftv to einhtv pounds, to which is added a small per cent of alkali, which neutralizes the acids and destroys the gum of the wood. The stea'ni and alkali also soften and toughen the fibsr so that it is broken by contact with the rollers. There is no grinding in this process, no part of the pulp is made into a powder; consequeatly the product is all fiber. Bark and knots, sometimes aocorapanying sawdust, can bo screened out, or pass off with water duaing the process of washing. Pulp made by this process is said to be supe rior in every respect to any pulp made from wood, not excepting chemical pulp, the reason being that tho fiber is ore- served intact, and the callulose is left with it, thus niakinc the product soft and pliable; and at the same time giving it groat strength. Tho ten3ile strength por square inch of news naner. which contains from 50 to 75 per cent of ground wood pulp and balance hard stock, is from eight to twelve- pounds, while the paper upon which the Herald was printed, made entirely from sawdust, stood a test of seventeen pounds to the square inch, thus demonstrating that it is much stronger than paper made from one-third rags. Bat while the paper pos sesses such strength, it is not harsh and takes a fino impression, and from present indications this sawdust is destined to take the place of rags for hard stock. A great advantage is that all kinds of paper can be made from the pulp without tho addition of such expensive material as rags, rotten jute, etc., thus securing the manufacture of paper at a reduction of from 30 to 50 per cent of its present Your joint committee, appointed to visit, examine and report concerning the condition of the government work on the locks now in process of construction at the Cascade .falls in the Columbia river, with a view to memorializing the con gress of the United States with reference to their speedy construction and the ap propriations therefore, have discharged that duty and would respectfully repert: That there is now under process of con struction at the point indicated, one lock ninety feet wide by four hundred and sixty-two feet in length; that tho lockage to be secured thereby will be from extreme low water mark to a rise in the river of twenty feet. When completed the Co lumbia river will be navigable from its mouth to The Dalles, a distance of two hundred miles, during the months of August. September, November, Decem ber, January, February and March. In order to admit of navigation during the entire year a high water lock must ba constructed. It can be constructed at any time after the completion of the low water lock. What work has been done seems to be substantial and in accordance with the plans approved by the officers of the United States government. Of the appropriations heretofore made there remains unexpended some fifty thousand dollars. Said sura is grossly inadequate to complete tho work. From all the data obtainable, your committee became convinced that it would cost about one million dollars to complete the work, and that in addition thereto it would require an appropriation of $500, 009 per year to carry on the work success fully so that steamboats and other water craft can pass and ropass thclocks during the entire year. We therefore-xecommeud that the con gress of the United States be memorial ized to appropriate, as soon as possible, tho said $1,000,000 to complete the canal and locks jt the Cascades of tho Colum bia, and the vearlv nnnronrintion of $500,000 so that they may bo of service during the entire year, and also that by the same memorial the said congress of the United States be urgod to make a further and sufficient appropriation for mo construction ot locks and canal at "the Dalles" of tho Columbia, to the end that said river may be freed from all the obstructions which prevent its successful navigation at this time. Respectfully submitted, Legislative CoMMrrrEK. THEV STARTED FOIt OBKCOX. cost. The pulp from this machine and process is also adapted to the manufac ture of the different grades of paper, from wrapping to tho finast qualities of white, while the unbleached pulp, it is claimed, will make wrapping paper equal in color and strength to the very best manilla. But this is not all. When this machine was successfully completed it was found that there was no known process for uioatumji wuuu puip economically ana satisfactory on a commercial scale. After several months' experimenting its in ventor succeeded in perfecting a process by which wood, jute, flax, hemp or anv other fibrous material is bleached per fectly -white, in largo quantities, in a very expeditious, effioient and economical man ner, without the slightest injury to the most delicate fibers. Tho woods adapted to this process of making pulp are the soft woods spruce, pine, fir, hemlock nnd poplar; in fact, all woods not classed as hard. Hemlock makes the strongest fiber of all, being fully equal to jute in strength, spruce, pine and poplar coming next. Although this scheme is in its infancy, we have no reason to doubt its perfect and ultimate success, and that any temporary difficul ties presented will be effectually removed by time and experience. e CardofTfautVu.

One of the finest billiard tables on the coast at Jeff's "Telphone." Ihdianapolis, Feb. 1C A somewhat new thing in the elopement line is re ported from Darlington, Montgomery county. On last Wednesday a follow from Virginia, known as Major Tomlin- son, left with the wife of Harvey Shau ver, a prosperous young farmer, living five miles north of that place. Mr. Shauver and wife were thought to be living happily, with three beaatiful little children. Mr. Shauver's suspicions were aroused by one of the.little fellows tell ing him that the Major, who was a farm hand, "kissed ma and ma kissed Major." Mr. Shauver took his wife to task for such action, She did not deny it, and also stated that she would kiss him just when she pleased, Mr. Shauver chas tised her for her conduct and paid the Major off. telling him that he would give him until Wednesday to leave. This seemed to raise the ire of Mrs Shauver, and she quickly gave her husband to un derstand mat sue would go with the dis charged man. Mr. Shauver knelt in prayer, and prayed long and reverently that such thoughts should not be enter tained by his wife, but his prayers would not soften or change her heart. Mr. Shauver gave her all her belongings, and tho baby, a beautiful boy, 2 years old; ho belped her into the sleigh, tucked the wraps close around her, and with tears almost streaming from his eyes, kissed her and the child good-by, telling her that he hoped and prayed she would be satisfied with her ill-judged undertaking. The couple stated that thpy were going to Oregon. Too Bid. London, Feb. 17. The cavass who re ported the news of General Gordon's murder to Wolseley, adds that Gordon's clerk and tho chief pIm-It nf fhn nromul i were also killed. El Mabdi did not en ter Khartoum until threo days after its fall. He inspected the place and returned to Omurman, where he remains. After Gordon fell the Arabs killed his clerk nnd nine others with spears. The rest of the garrison esdacd. With the ex ception of this attack there was n. fighting at Khartoum.

It is reported El Mahdi hanged Fasha Furago. The rebels plundered the town and killed all the Greeks in the Arsenal. All pris oners were freed except the Italian con sul. Nicola, and doctor. El Mabdi has 4Utwgoou nghting men, who, however, have been frightened by the results of tho battles at Abon Klea, Gubat and Kabbatish. Sheiks report much sickness and disaffection among El Mahdi's troops, who are tired of the war and de sire English protection. Tho natives respond slowly to El Mahdi's levies. Kotti. Feb. 17.

General Gordon's trusted messenger, George, has arrived at Abou Klea. Ho says almost nil native accounts agree that General Gordon, finding him self betrayed, made a rush for the mag azine near tho Catholic mission build ing. Finding the rebels already m possession, he returned to the govern ment house and was killed in trying to re-enter. The rebels were admitted to Khartoum at 10 o'clock on tho evening of tho 2Gth of January. Another account says General Gordon rushed toward the magazine, intending to explode it and thus prevent the ammunition, of which tuere were several tons, falling into tho hands of the enemy. The Arabs quickly realized his intention and shot him dead. London, Feb. 17. A dispatch from Jvorti states that General Stewart, wounded in the engagement at Abou Klea, is not expected to recover. It also states that the cavass who reaohed Korti was Gordon's servant. He secured his escape by bribery, bought a camel and crossed to Debboh in twelve days, and from thence proceeded to Korti in an English pinnace. Test Your EaMiig Fowfler To-Day ?

A cortuin Mr. Fay, straight from Cleveland and the Demo cratic national committee, hove to on tho evening train. The story of his coming is told in this wise: Some time since Mr. Vilas of Oregon, whoso brother, Vilas of "Wisconsin, had nominated Cleveland, wrote the latter, telling him of tho trian gular condition of the senatorial muddle and suggesting n suitableHepublican, his former law partner, Col. X. 1$. Knight of Salem, as the proper person for tho Ore gon Democrats to center upon if they could get eight Republicans to join them. Mr. Vilas thought such a move for Knight or even some other Renublioan who might be regarded good-would be, during the deadlock, advisable. What does Mr. Cleveland do but dispatch Mr. Fay post haste.
