Some of tlie Smooth Schemes or Beautiful and Designing Women, Among the persons who leaned over lho icebox in the Pearl street nnderiaking establishment not long since, in which lay tho body of Lyman D. Minor, tho Broadway merchant who committed sui cide, says a Kew Yorkjetter writer, was a woman of scarcely twenty-three years of age. She was soberly dressed, and when she raissd her vail a modest Jittlo face and a pair of jet black eyes twink ling beneath black eyelashes were seen. With her Kid-gloved hand she smoothed bask the hair from the ugly bullet wound m the toiaple of the dead man, and when she was leading left a bunch of lil lies on tho box. She came as myster iously as she went. This woman was Annie Greenvile, who, in connection with Plmy White, the king of confidence men, was the unseen power that drove tho mer chant to his ;?rave. Sergeant Frink, of the central police ofiice, said Annio Greenville had a heart of iron and was a tool in the hands of White. White would never leave a man while there was x dollar in him. He was heartless, treach erous and cruel.

The Elmo lodging house and restau rant, J. K. Hamilton proprietor, opens to-day. It is well situated, on No. 07, Water street, for regular and transient custom and merits a share of the popular patronage. Tho census of Seattle fchows that city has a population of 9.7SG. The census taker's figures are cutting down urban estimates all over the northwest, but who'd a' thought that Seattle had twice as many inhabitants as Astoria ! It is rumored that tho present county superintendent of public instruction, Mr. J. E. Higgins will hand his resigna tion to tho county commissioners next week. Tho county will be fortunate if it secures as ablo a superintendent in Mr. H's. successor.

A recent invent ion has facilitated firing practice with, big guns, both on board ship and in forts or elsewhera on shore and is being rapidly turned to good ac count. A plug or tompion is placed in the niuzzlo ef the gun, and into this is screwed the barrel of a sinall-bore riCe, accurately adjusted upon the same axis. The rifle barrel only is loaded, and the big gun is sighted and laid upon tho target, when a pull of tho lanyard fire? therifle, and the bullet makrs the ac cur acy of tho aim as effectively as though the gun had fired its own projectile.

Liberty hall was the center of attrac tion last evoniug. it being the opening night of the ladies' fair and baz-inr in aid of tho tournament fund. Tho hall was profusely decorated with flowers, and from the entrance to the back of the stage most tastefully ar ranged. On tho tables and in the booths were displayed many rare specimens of handiwork. From the opening lo a late hour last evening it was crowned by la dies and gentlemen, who testified by their presence nnu substantial encouragement tho interest they felt in making the affair a success. In the room adjoining was set a sp'.en did dinner, daintily served by tho ladies who deserve praise for their unselfish ef forts to assist in making the coming fire men's tournament a success. A largo number partook of the good things so bounteously supplied, and from tho amount of fresh food that was sent in last evening it is evident that a still lar ger number is expected this evening. Tho fair is well worth a visit and any one going will spend a pleasant evening. Don't forget to tell tho folks at home not to mind about dinner to-day but to put on their best bib and tucker, as yon will lako them to Liberty hall at any tune from 5X0 to 8.30 this 'evening nnd get a first-class dinner. m:iLTI!FCINF.SS OF ClKI CJOO'H. Dr. Cyrus Edson, of the health depart ment, New York city, sends the follow ing strong endorsement of the healthf ul ness of canned goods to tho chairman of the canned goods committee, of the New York Mercantile Exchange: Nuw Yor.K, May fi, 1S3T. Mr. Daiid Hunt: Deau Sin: In rGply to your question concerning my opinion in T&gard to the canned goods scare. I would stato that tho scare in question is quito without foundation iu fact and is duo entirely to sensational newspaper articles. Since my connection with this department I havo not received a single complaint against canned goods which careful in vestigation proved well founded. I will rmt it evon stronger. I havo never s?e:i a single case of alleged canned goods poisoning which cirefal investigation did not completely refute. I do not be lieve that preserving food iu hermetically sealed tins in any wt3 renders it less wuoiesome than it wouiu otuerwisc us provided, of course, that the preaerving is properly done.

Bozorth, Recorder. iwi ntifil suBcsssfullv in the great popu lous cities, as there the possibilities of detection are reduced to a mere nothing. It take an adroit rogue to be a first-class swindler: hence women, who have moro tact than men, are always chosen to do the fine work of entrapping tho victim. Once in the toils, the plucking is dono by the male confederates, and i3 usuolly an easy and safe process. Their meth ods are many, curious and novel. Tho latest and most novel is one recently come to light. A beautiful and accomplished girl sought employment in n down town busi ness establishment ran by a father and wi. She managed to entangle both, and got up an escapade with tho young man which coht him a very tidy little sum be fore the cud was reached. He wrote her i"ffcetiouatc letters, made short excur sions around and had a lovely time gen erally, until one fine morning an elderly ruffian stopped up, claiming lo bo her father. Tim idiot was only too glad to disgorge liberally on the spot. Then the ex charmer threatened to sue for the re covery of her letters and the balance duo on ber furniture: to avoid r. scandal ho paid up handsomely. Finally, fearing he was to be bled to death by these vam pires, he appealed to the police. A singlo visit, with a promise of arrest sufficed to settle the whole business. A neat trick is for a pretty blackmailer to cuter a store where there are p. great many clerks. Ones in the store, she plies all hor feminine art on tho chosen Mctim (ono who holds a pretty good position, and whoso circumstances sho has learned something about), nnd, engaging him in conversation, lets slipsomostray remark, which she emphasizes with her eyes. If lio smiles and retorts in the same vein, a point has been gained. Afser that the conquest is uot difticult. A visit or two, a matinee, an opera night, and then some fine day my ludy sails into tho store liko a Spanish pirate bent on plunder. A hurried talk; tho man looks glum, bat hands outthemonoi' theensnaror has de manded. After that she rends him regu larly, onlv at short and shorter intervals, until something "goes bust," 113 tho dy ing is. liituer sue gets 111 jau or ji oig scandil breaks ont, or possibly hodeSos her: but as a rule ho hasn't the pluck to do that, and iu many cases the pay pro cess goes on for years. A well known editor of mu;h bril liancy and sagacity on the metropolitan press was badly dono for some time ago by a pretty littlo widow. Sho first relied ou him. and her woful talc, backed by her girlish face, enlisted his sympathies in her cause. Then came requests for theater and concert tickets and other courtesies, in compliance with which ho generally sent a gallantly worded note. On tho strength of these letters, and a confederate, it cost him 1,000 inside of three months. He was too sensitivo to public opinion to hand her over to tho police, and had not a friend of his stepped in and grappled matters with an iron hand, ho probably would have been n victim to-dav of either her greed or lies. Hero is another case: A Broadway mer chant who makes a specialty of silk" and satins has a dark room fitted up in his store where ho can show the effect of gaslight upon his goods. Ono dny he es corted a lady to hi3 room to show n piece of satin und'er tho g is jet. Hardly had tho door shut upon them than sho tore oif her bonnet and sneqn. and liinging her arms ab jn his neck shrikoed at tho top of her voice. The clerks rushed in and saw the bos3 struggling with a beau tiful lady whose clothes were half torn off her back. Here was n pretty kettle of fish. It cost r00 to hnsh the matter up. bat he refnsos to enter that room with a ladv unless accompanied by a cash boy. Thero is no limit to the" resources of the business nnd liko MnllK-rry Se'hr's eve-water, " there's millions in it' They have been known to invade a private weddme end coma on successful, wom en are invariably the principals. Men suspect men always, but they are con summate fools enough nevei-to suspect a handsome woman. The glamour of hr face, the witchery of her eyes nnd the soft ripple of her tongue is too much for their senses, and their suspicion is lulled unt'l too lato to bo of any value. One meets these women everywhere- at tho theater, on the cars, in the street. All the summer boarding house and sea side resorts aro favorite stamping grounds for them. Saratoga is full of them in season, nnd not long since I know one who entertained two clergy men ono a bishop in the Episcopal church with their wives at dinuor. Of course the guests had no idea of tho true character of tuo cuarmmg uosless, ana Eerhaps aoine day when I write up her rillinnt but checkered career, they will rub ihpir dear old ecclesiastical optics. "Rock of ages, cleft for me" Thoughtlessly tho maiden sung, Fell tho words unconsciously From her girlish, gleeful tongue. Sang as little children sing, Sang as sing tho birds in June; Fell tho words liko light leaves down On the current of tho tune, "Rock of ages, cleft for me. Let me hido myself in thee." "Let mo hido myself in theo" Felt her soul no need to hide, Sweet the song as song could be, And she had no thought beside, All the words uuhecdingly Fell from lips untouched by care. Dreaming not that they might be On some other lips a prayer. "Rock of ages, cleft for me, Let me hido myself in thee." "Rock of ages, cleft for me" 'Twas a woman who sang them now Pleisantlv and prayerfully. Every word her heart did know. Rose the song as storm-tossed bird Beats with weary wing the air, Everv note with sorrow stirred, Every syllable a prayer "Rock of ages, cleft forme, Let mo hide myself in thee." "Rock of ages, cleft for me" Lips grown aged sung the liyran Trustingly nnd tenderly. Voice grown weakand'eyes grown dim, "Let mo hido myself in thee." Trembling though tho voice and low, Roso tho sweet strain peacefully, Liko a river in its flow; Sang as only one can sing Who beholds tho promised rost 'Rock of ages, cleft for me, Let me hide myself m thee." "Rock of ages, cleft for me'' Sung above a coffin lid; Underneath all restfully All life's joys and sorrows hid; Nevermore, oh, storm-tossed soul, Nevermore from wind or tide Wilt thou need thyself to hide. Could tho sightless, sunken eyes, Closed beneath the soft, gray hair, Could the muto and stiffened lips Move again in pleading prayer, Still, aye still, the words would be 'Let mo hido myself in thee."

With kindly consideration for the fastidious tasl63 of this day and generation tho re vised old Testament just issued discards the word "hell." Inplacoof "hell" ap pears tho word "Sheol." As tho key to tho pronunciation has not yet reached Astoria it is hard to say just how this word is to bo mouthed. As the revisors of tho new Testament havo replaced the word "hell'' with "hades," and tho revis ors of the old Testament havo replaced it with tue word "sheol," tne presump tion is that tho old-fashioned orthodox hell has been discarded from the Bible. This is rough on all concerned, but as the revisors were all godly men thoy cer tainly ought to know. DOES K0T COXTAIN A313IOXIA.
