On the 25th, Judge Deadjrmade an order allowing Kichard Koehler, receiver of tho Oregon & California .Railroad Company, to borrow $106,000 for nine months, for tho running expenses of the road; and to pay for some iron on the way out from JSew York on the ship W. H. Starbuck. Lawrence Harrison and L. Baker, who have a suit against the com pany, as bondholders, objected to this, as also did the Oregon Transcontinental Company. In accordance with tho order made, all the objections are overruled. The law prohibiting passengers from entering pilot houses on steamboats has been amended. Heretofore, says the Xews, no one but the man at the' wheel could enter. Under the new provision licensed officers of steamboats, captains and engineers of other boats are allowed in. The supervising inspector of a dis trict has also been granted the authority to issue permits to captains of steamboats to allow a limited number to enter the pilot house, except when the boat is used foroxcursion purposes. Small steamboats and boats plying in deep water are com pelled to carry metallic lire-rafts. Tho old sturgeon man from Sauvio's island was in town yesterday, says tho Oregonian, and from him was learned some interesting particulars concerning the sturgeon trap pat in the outlet of Big Sturgeon lake last year. "It- was just a regular dog-gonod failure as far as catching sturgeon goes," said he. "Those fish climbed out at tho corners by means of the sharp bony spurs on their sides, just as fast as boys could shin up the piles. After a time the leaves and flags filled np the opening between the piles and the trap became a great cor ral for suckers. When the sturgeon found this out they would go in and eat their fill of the suckers and then crawl out. I have had lots of fun watching them of moonlight nights. They appear to enjoy the .sport, and would be glad if someone would put in more traps for their amusement. Latest designs in cards and station ery at Adler's. The ladies of the Presbyterian church will give an ice cream sociable m the Y. M. C. A. rooms this evening. Ev ery effort will be made to render the entertainment a pleasant one.

FOR THBEE MONTHS. What An Old Resident Say Will Be Cferon. Icled Daring That Time. "Well, how's items?" said an old resi dent yesterday to an Astobiah reporter; "do you find any difficulty in picking np little bite of news around the city?" The reporter assured him that he didn't; that it was tho other way; that so many things happened and matters were so lively, that, in his search for news ho was in the same fix as tho duck hunter who com plained that just as he had his gun aimed at a duck another duck flow right between and spoiled the sight. "Well," again said the old resident, "I was thinking this morning that it might save you lots of trouble if yon'd just write up a bunch of items in advance. Just write 'em and you'll find they'll come in all right." "That's a new idea," said. the reporter, "but I don't exactly 'catch onf how do you mean?'' "Why," said the o. r., "things happen right along just as regular as clock work. You had an item the other day about an eclipse that was seon fifty- four years ago and would be seen that morning, and fifty-four years from new: and it was no surer that that eclipse would happen than lots oil other things which are certain to occur." "Give me a sample," said tho reporter. "I will," quoth the old resident, and about eight last evening ho walked in with the following, which he says is "about right:" March 31st.

Igivoyouthis for your own private benefit; just a memorandum of what is sure to happen in tho next three months." It was too great a temptation, and just to see how near the old party would hit it, tho above is printed exactly as he handed it in. EX-COSUBES3SAN GEOBUETS OPI5IOX. Aboat a Matter that Concern! a Good Many In Cletsop County. Ex-congressman M. C.George has re turned to Portland from Washington. In an interview with a News reporter he made reference to some matters of inter est to us down here. Being asked why there was no appropriation for the Wil lamette or Columbia rivers, he said: h!?JLm,& J " Eassed under a suspension of the rules, a the senate it was raised to $10,000,000, but its opponents who were in tho minor ity filibustered and delayed it, so that it failed to pas3. I think there will be no trouble, however, in securing an ample appropriation at the next session of con gress." "There have been a great many inqui ries in regard to tho Oregon Central land grant, which was recently restored to tho public domain by an act of congress. No official notification has been received by L. T.Barin, register of the United States land office at Oregon City. In conse quence of not having received this notice, Mr. Barin refuses to allow filings to be made by actual settlors on any of the land included in the grant. Now, what is the reason that the register has not been notified before?" was the next ques tion asked Mr. George. "It is just the ordinary delay usual in such cases. Tho secretary of tho inter! or will, when he gets down to it, notify Register Barin. I have been asked sev eral times since I arrived in town the same question. There was some talk about the Northern Pacific claiming a portion of this grant because their grant lapped over it some, but I conversed with the attorneys for that corporation before I left Washington and they are satisfied that thoy have no right to any portion of this grant. The point is this, viz: "At the time the Northern Pacific was given their land grant, tho Oregon Central grant was in existence, and it could not therefore possibly reverC to the former. It is just the same as when a homestead er or pre-emptor abandons his claim. It reverts to the public domain. So you. see, tho settler will be perfectly safe in pre-empting this land." The above is important coming from the source it does, and will set at rest a question that has been asked in various quarters, viz: "Does tho Northern Pa cifio claim any portion of this grant?" Mr. George says it does not. It is to bo hoped that Mr. Barin will soon receive official notification that the grant has been forfeited, for numerous inquiries have been made regarding this matter which is of considerable importance to many in this county.

Cleveland is the prayer on many a lip at midnight. He assumes enormous shapes and becomes alternately godlike and demoniac as the passing hopes of these expectants move. How to ap proach him, how to touch him, like tho woman in the scriptures, how to be heeled from poverty and obscurity by this magic man and arisen savior, are the terrifying thoughts of domesiic inner councils. To go back home, having perhaps borrowed money to come here, and bo empty handed, is not to be thought of. Bills grow by night, like mushrooms, and how to pay them even before they are due makes the heart sick. Poor office-expect ants, otherwise respectable, are wonder ing if they can borrow from each other, and, perhaps, like the two lost men in the dream of darkness, who met by -an extinguishing taper and in mutual hide ousnes3 expired, tbo last tapor dollar is the issue among these Washington poor folks. On tbo other hand tho clerks in office are undergoing the same agonies. They hear things spoken of as they pass along the avenues indicative of a determined purpose to get something and not to be put off. They overhear or are told of particular individuals looking for the especial desk and salary at issue, and the price of bread with them. When you consider how hard it is to save mon ey out of 1200 a year and live in a city whore is tho highest-priced gas and the least opportunities for overwork in the land, and materials of all sorts'50 per cent, higher than in the neighboring town of Baltimore, yon see how few have saved anything here. Besides, clerical life in Washington al most compels marriage. Tho depart ments aro fnll of femalo clerks, often in teresting. The girls of tho town have no hopes of marriago except with govern ment employes. Frequently a higher ro-J hncment attonds this me than under the same incomes elsewhere, and this refine ment and beauty lures on the young amateur who had expected to be a law yor or an inventor, and ho finds himself with a family of children and no way to turn but to the benignant government. The 43xalted places under this, gov ernment bring only about &50 a week salary. Iho station of dignity is worth only -1,000 a year. The generality of office-holders who keep their heads up have married property. Here and there is a lawyer in the depart ments who had saved some money out of his income of 2.000 a year beforo he became a clerk at 1,500 a year. He mar ries a former client, or client's widow, and brings to Washington enough money to build a home, and then tho salary may pay the bills. Riic'cIcii's Arnica Salve.
