The K.of P. ball to bo given by Pacific Lodgo No. 17, next Friday evening, will bo complimentary. Tho river is rising rapidly. Old fish ermen -say on a freshet liko this tho salmon are hard to net. The Seattle Call is dead sixteen days old. And if it is so soon it's dono for wo wonder what it was begun for. Cashing Post G. A. It., No. 14, are making claborato preparations for due observance of Decoration day. Portland has a population of 21,033 exclusive of 4.000 Chinese; it has 7,121 voters. East Portland has 4,3G1 inhab itants. Capt. Allen Noyes received word yes terday that tho Coloma left Hongkong April 13th. He looks for her hero about Juno 1st.

Maxwell Young sent in a fine lot of strawberries yosterdai' to this office just to show that Astoria strawberries are not as lato as might be supposed. Tho Orcgonian is onto three bunko sharps who were given twenty-four hours to leave Portland. They left and may strike here. Look out for them. The sea lions are reported thicker and more audacious than ever. Yesterday they were out in force and playing around, seizing salmon and throwing them out of the water. Tho canneries up the river are doing "a little." A good many boats went out yesterday, and last evening the stream m frontf the city showed more sails than have been seen for a week. All the Oregon cities (except ono) have had their population, as shown by the last census, published. How many people are there in Astoria anyhow? We navo been trying to find out for three weeks, and give it up. There are at present 2G3 convicts at the state penitentiary, the greatest num ber confined thero at any ono time. Twenty of them are for life. Twenty-six of tho inmates are Chinamen, and eight are Indians. The ShubricI: was at Tonguo point buoy depot yesterday taking on a now construction bridge designed for use at Tillamook rock light house. It will be an improvement on the present means of landing there. H. G. NVright, of this city, is to be credited with tho possession of what good judges say is "the best colt in the state." Altamont Jr., is at present about four teen miles from Oregon City and gives promise of being as famous as his sire. In 1864 tho total value of all the Scotch salmon fisheries was set down at less than 53,000; but in 18G8 tho value was supposed to have been raised to 200.000, and in 1877 to 250,000, since which there is said to have been a rise in value of at least 15 per cent. On tho arrival of tho Wide lPcsiat Portland Tuesday afternoon, one of the passengers from here was arrested on a telegraphed warrant from here charging him with being an absconding debtor. L S. Gragg went up on tho Telephone yesterday, nnd will bring him down to day. The California Grocer and Conner re ports that there has been scarcely any chance in the situation on the Sacramen to. There has not yet been a fair supply of fish for tho canneries for three consec utive days, and tho available spot stock is much lighter than it has ever been bo fore at this time. Spot stock is quoted at 95 cents a dozen. Last week one of tho city canneries secured a fair supply of bay fish for two days' operations, and the river canners had hopes of a run but there has not been more than enough fish for the market any day since. Everyone hereabouts has seen or heard of that4,beeswax" that has been picked up in chunks of various size alongthe beach. xor me iube generation or two. xne tueory now advanced is that the stuff is not beeswax at all, but paraffino in a crude state, Paraffine is usually obtained from the distillation of mineral or vege table tar, and when found under similar circumstances in other parts of the coun try is said to be a sure sign of valuable coal deposits in tho neighborhood.- The matter is 'worth looking into as far as the coal is concerned. But if it is found to be paraffine what will become of all those yarns about the Chinese junk and the Spanish ship and the castaway crew and the slaves all the rest of the legend?

Professor R. E. Odium arrived here from Washington on Friday last to perfect arrangements for a contemplated jump from East River bridge into tho East river, a distance of 140 feet. Ho stated that ho proposed to jump, notwithstanding tho bridtro offi cials declared that they would prevent him. Odium was confident tho feat could bo performed, and had arranged with friends in a boat below to signal when the river was clear, and Captain Boynton was in tho water attired inn nautical rig to render assistance if nec essary. A few minutes after (! o'clock tho professor jumped, and after striking the water he disappeared for a few sec onds. Captain Rowe, with n fugboat, succeeded in reaching the body, and took it to pier 11, where it was taken in charge by his friends. Tho act was witnessed by hundreds of people, who thought it n case of suicide. Captain Rowe states that Odium was alive when taken from tho water, but died before reaching the pier. He Knew all About It. "Bananatus CigaretusTobaccutus from Tillamookus county;' underneath this sign hang3 a long banana leaf, in stato board of immigration office. Tho leaf has a very slight odor of tobacco, proba bly artificially tainted. A green looking fellow stepped into -the office yesterday, examined the stuff and said he had just arrived from Tillamook county. He fur thermore stated that tho tobacco leaf grew wild in that region, and ho was ashamed that Portland capitalists should not take hold of tho matter and establish a tobacco factory. " What f oo!s we mor tals be." 2vnc5, 20. IX UEXORIAS. P. M. Lxn-quist, died May 14th, 18S5. Another friend has gone Gono to tho hpirit land; Another one has joined The bright, celestial band.

The contest over tho Illinois senator ship will be renewed at Springfield in less than a week. Moanwhilo the strug-- gle is transferred to Washington. Mor rison is laying his wires to get the legis lature well in hand on the renowal of its efforts to fill Senator Logan'a-seat. Two groups "of Illinois statesmen were assem bled at Willard's yesterday. Mr. Morri son wa3 the center of oae srouji, and was earnestly presenting his case. The other was ni.-uo up of men who think the great tariff reducer should get out of. tho way and give someone else a czuuee. Among the latter was Thomas Mulhem, the Democratic member uf the leuial.t- ture, who will not vole for Morrison. Mr. Malhern said that if Morrison with drew Black or Oberly would fcttLnd n good chance of elceliou. 'Oberly ho thought, would be a very strong man. Inasmuch ns Mulhern'a vote is ono ILnt stands in Morrison's way, this seems to settle tho matter as far r.s Morrison is concerned. The anti-Morrison iden, sev eral of whom enmo in to-day, are under stood to be here to checkmate him, and n very pretty littlo gamo of political cucssis going on in tao luuuy at mi lard's. The feeling is that matters can't stav long as they now are and that the If-fMRlntnrn will wither elect nromntlv or nujuuiu wiiuuuk i-iubiiu;. .utiu xua elected on tho 19th. Eo. lam told there is a little sentiment connected with Miss Cleveland's selec tion of Dr. Sunderland's Presbylerian church as tho president's placo of wor ship in Washington. While it" may bo diplomatic in tho president to win tho good will of tho minister who was so pro nounced in his ill will, tho real secret is in tho following stery: Just before tho inauguration somo friends in New York state wrote to Mrs. Sunderland express ing tho desire lo come to Washington to witness the inaugural ceremonies. Mrs. Sunderland wished lo write back an in vitation for them to bo her guests. But tbey were warm friendsof Mr. Cleveland, and her husband had been so bitter against him that she said to hor daugh- tcr: "Your father will bo sure to say something to hurt their feel ings." She decided after much trouble of mind to gently hint this to the friends and relieve herself of apparent inhos pitality. To her surprise, they replied that they should not mind anything he said, or feel hurt in tho least" They came, and the united efforts of Mrs. Sun derland and her daughter kept tho doc tor pretty well behaved. But after tho in auguration the friends wished to go to the white house. Mrs. Sunderland thought it only cour teous to accompany her guests, and wanted her husband to go with them. Ho flatly and firmly refused. His wife was much distressed, but went with the friends to Miss Cleveland's first Saturday reception. When tho ladies were intro duced to Mrs. Hoyt, tho president's sis ter, tho latter held her hand nnd said: "Tell mo if you are the wife of Rev. Dr. Sunderland, once my dear mother's pas tor? Did your husband. ever preach at Batavia, N. Y.? "Yes, when a very young man, before ho had a call to Wash ington, repneu dixs. ounaenanu, a nitie embarrassed, as she thought of her hus band's feelings toward the president. "Oh, I'm so delighted to meet you, and I want to seo your husband. My brother. will be so clpd to meet him. too. I hone you will come again and bring Dr. Sun derland," said .airs. Hoyt. Wuen Mrs: Sunderland told her husband he slowly said, "Well, I won't retract what I've said, but I may go some time. , A few days after, the family at the White house talked over their mother's young pastor, and decided that he should bo their own. The most surprised person in town was Dr. Sunderland himself. If the prosident is heap'ng "coals of firo" on his head, and returning good for the evil of tho minister's denunciation of bim during the campaign, Dr. Sunderland donbtles3 offsets it by singing the lines of that good old hymn, "While tho lamp ui i.iu uuius uut io uuru, ine yiicss sin ner may return." Tho count of the money in the treas ury is now in progress, and your corres pondent was conducted through the great silver vault tho other day while the work was going on. The vault is as big as a house, and will hold about fifty mil lion silver dollars. Squatted down in the aislo of the vault, Trith a light and pair of scales between them, were the committee, with their heads together like traditional misers counting their money. Ono man stood in a cell, on one side of them, pass ing out tho bags of silver (a thousand dollars in a bag), which were weighed and numbered nnd then passed to -the-' next man, who stowed it away in the next cell. There are about ten million silver dollars thus counted or, rather, weighed and it will take about ten days to get through with it. Lnxox.

Once tho sharp jaws of the scoon cut off both feet of- &ownedmtin, ahd- tnocgu a ring by great force, fell out of tho scoop sev eral months ago. . Tho dredgers thought that the man from whose arm the hand had bsen torn bad-been led down to n dock while intoxicated, and" robbed; aril i tnrown overboard by tu.6 members of it "gang." It is a common practice, but tho dredge rarely disturbs tho body. An immense-drog-heVatretchcd across the Narrows would catch a multitude of strange and mysterious things. -It would be a storehouse ten Hmes'Tnoro! jjbastly" than a morgue. There is n tradition that years ago a murdoxex was-convictdby a blood-stained Knite brougnt up in a dredge. The names and dates aro lack in". Another tradition flavs that a dredger once brojoghtsuphht own -runa- j wayoauguter irom tue bottom ot tne river. A ghastly bruise on the temple told tho story of her death. The dredger beat his brains out against the barred door of an ihsano osyjum twdyears later. He bad lived sane long enough to mur der the man that ran off with his daugh ter, and a merciful court sent him to an asylum for the insane. A third blood curdling tradition is to the effect that a dredcer nursed a grudge against another dredger for many 76305, hoping for -vengeance. At length when tho enemy got between tho jaws of Iho scoop 0 fasten a loose rivet, the jaws closed on him, and ho was swung out ov&r ihe-wate?.- Then the rfrflilffi went ont slowlv. nnd thn ln?t thins; that tho dredger e?Vc?f .'eerih wa3 j iuo lucuurmb muriTOcgcugruniing trium phantly overthe edgeof the"cow.
