Uurrage, lately returned from tho white settlements, warns an Orego nian reporter and tho rest of mankind against English sparrows and black bass. These sparrows who live in snouts eat fruit blossoms in a manner terrible to be hold. They are worse than caterpillars in Astoria. As for black bass they are a holy terror; they everlastingly chew up every other fish that swims in the same water with them. Once and all he Mr. Burrage) gives us timely warning, never take the horseshoe the sparrow we mean from the dure. It wasn't salmon this time: it was ice cream; twenty-one people in New Haven were pizeued'last Monday, from eating ice cream. The ice cream must go. The telegram is defective as it doesn't adver tise the doctor who was called in, nor does it say where tho ice cream was made. That little item in yesterday's Astoihax about the sequel to tho "poisoning'' by eating canned salmon in New York, when it was shown that the salmon had been 'poisoned" in tho ixrisouous atmosphere of aNowYork tenement, remindsa prom inent Astoria cannery man of a similar incident which was telegraphed all over the country a few years ago as an exam ple of "poisoning' by eating canned goods. It appears that Lusk i Co., the celebrated San Francisco fruit and veg etable packers, had a lot of damaged canned corn, "swell heads," which tbo3' could do nothing with. Finally it got to swelling badly and the whole lot was flans out in a lot behind the factory. somo liuie ienow came juuiik wiiu i u;m ket and picked out half a dozen of the best looking cans and carried them home. Tho family ate the contents of one of the cans and one of tho youngsters died: then there was a howl about Lusk's corn, for some saphead found tho can that con tained the corn with one of Lusk's labels on it. A few weeks passed by and the family tackled the corn again and this time another angel climbed tho golden stair: then the press rose on its posterior digitals and hrioked, for there again was that can with the label on it. Once more, ere the green grass had made ver dant tho two little mounds in the cemet ery, that same family had another fatal feed on tho corn and for the third time the undertaker had a job. Then they "took a tumble"' and for tho first time it dawned on them that rotten corn thrown out as unfit to touch was not correct fodder for the infants of their brood, and while corn was good, and while Lusk packed good com he could not bo blamed if a damaged lot thrown in the garbage was fished out and an attempt made to turn it into flesh and blood.

J. Kinney vs. E. D Heatleyfet als., bids fair to become as celebrated as the case of Jarndyco vs. Jarndyco which Dickens in his "Bleak House" has so graphically reported. Dep ositions havo been taken and testimony procured in and from all the lands of tho earth and the isles of toe sea, A'onu erous tomes of testimony, innumerable folios of evidence, incalculable reams of argument and sundry and divers costs and accruing c asts and fees have resulted from all this legal action and it may bo the end is not yet. Thus far the victory lies with tho plaintiff, 5L J. Kinnoy, whose attornei's, Fulton Bros, and Stott have left no stone unturned to secure a ver dict for their client which many would consider a righteous one. The facts in the case are familiar to Aslorians as the case has been reported in full from time to time in these col umns. In the circuit court here last February a verdict was rendered for tho plaintiff, M. J. Kinney, and was immedi ately appealed to tho supremo court. Last evening C. W. Fulton received a transcript of a decision just rendered from the supremo court affirming the de decision of tho lower court. The gist of the decision is the affirm ation of the allegation that the foul weather experienced by the Titan in 1876" was tho cause of tho salmon boing in such a condition, when it reached En gland as to justify heavy claims for rec lamation, or at least tho attendant cir cumstances were such as to justify tho belief that such heavv weather and the consequent injury to tho vessel's cargo would be ground sufficient to contest the claim for reclamation set up by the defendants and appellants in the suit. Says the transcript in conclusion, " The case will havo to go back in order to as certain tho amount included in tho ac counts of said creditors for reclamation of advance niado upon the salmon ship ped aboard the Titan. The said credit ors are entitled to no such reclamations, but as tho case stands now it is impossi blu to ascertain that fact. When it shall be known, tho overcharge in each of the accounts of said creditors can bo deduct ed and a decree entered accordingly." THE SALMOX PACK. "A light run' is the answer to tho question "How's salmon?" Tho proph ec3' made in the earlier part of tho season seems in a fair way to bo verified, though tho next thirty days may make the same difference in tho aggregato pack that a similar poriod has in that of previous yenrs. irora figures furnished by ono of tho oldest and most experienced cannors on tho Columbia river, The Astobian gets a comparative statement of tho packs of '84 and '85 up to and including the 15th of June. Comparing the period from April 1st, 1881, to June 15th, 18S4, with the like poriod from April 1st. 18S5, to June 15th, 18S5, tho Anglo-American Packing company has so far packed 2,130 cases less salmon this year than last; tho Eagle Canning company 4,000 less; Knappton, 3,200 less; North Star. 1,200 ittjs: Scandinavian, 1.000 less; Fisher menSj Packing Co., 750 less; Pacific Union Packing Co., 1,433 less; Badollct & Co., 947 lass; Pillar Kock, 1,500 more; West Coast, 1,500 less; Occident Packing Co., 3,053 less; I. X. L. Packing Co., 1,590 less; John A. Devlin, 3,700 less: A. Booth & Sons, 1,800 less; Wm. Hume, Astoria, G.0401ess: Union Packing Co., 0,148 less; Washington Packing Co., 2,500 less; Cutting Packing Co., 2.700 less; Astoria Packing Co., 0,014 less; Geo. W. Hume. 1,070 more; F. M. Warren. Cathlamet. 1,500 more; Eureka, 1,000 more; J. W. & V. Cook, 4.000 more; F. M. Warren, Cascades, 7,500 lass; Ocean Can ning Co., 3,000 less; Geo. T. Myers, 4,000 less; James Williams. 1,000 less: Aber deen, about even; Win. Hnrne, Eagle Cliff, 1.500 mere: Sam'l Elmore, 4.000 less; McGowan, U,000,which as it is a new cannery, mav bo reckoned as "tnore." From these figures, which are stated to be authentic, it would appear that tho shortago in the pack to the 15th inst., as compared with '81, is 07,227 cases. .Reference to the market is necessarily indefinite. From 95 cents to 1.12X on the river is the range, and tho meager- e.s of sales at the latter figure hardly jnstihes its mention. 'Free Self-Cure." A correspondent wishes to know how tho many who advertise a "self-cure free; send self-addressed envelope," otc, make monej-: or if they are the philanthropists the wording of the advertisements would seem to indicate? Ne: they are not philanthropists. All their philan thropy is concentrated ou self, and their sole object is to make money. This end is is attained by selling at so much a thousand tho self-addressed envelopes they receive from their dupes, and they never hevo any difficulty in finding a market for their wares. As a rule, the same party advertises under several aliases. If any ono dasires to I rove by practical experience what sort of a market there is for self-addressed envelopasand namas, let him nnswer one of thase advertisements, and in a short time ho will be deluged with cir culars of all kinds Buclilcn Arnica Salve.

Michael Doran and Patrick Kelly, on behalf of tho Dem ocratic State committee of Minnesota, gave early notice that all who intended to apply forexecutivo favors under tho Cleveland administration, should send to them their petitions and papers'.and thus savo time and money, and at tho same time make a sure thing of it. It was a novel and perfectly well-meant proclama tion. As tho officers of tho only author ized agent of the party, they held that they would not only be powerful with the president, but were entitled to be the agents of tho distribution of his favors. In due time they came to Washington. Tho time was about identical with Mr. Cleveland's advent. They awaited the manifestations of the wishes of the faithful Democrats who sought rewards for their services to tho party. Mean time other Democrats of standing made it known that they objected to the set ting up of a machine in Washington to control appointments, and, to emphasize the objection, a number came them selves. The committee's engineers were disappointed in not being recognized or employed as they expected. The Mug wumps were doing most of the business. Nor did tho president seem well disposed toward them, but gave his attention rather to the others. Finally it seemed to be of no use waiting for the tide to turn in their favor, and Mr. Doran and Mr. Kelly prepared to break camp and go home. Not to bo utterly worsted, thev cast about for a single appointment tha't could bo given them. Secretary Man ning, with whom their success had not been good, said that there was tho office of superintendent of public buildings at Minneapolis; they might name him if they chose, and jumping at tho chance, they named him. Now, it should bo borne in mind that St. Paul, where tho unfortunato gentle men reside, and Minneapolis aro two cities which, though very close together geographically, are intensely hostile. They are so hostile, indeed, that a dis tingushed Minnesotian avers that, were.Gabriel to take his stand in either town and blow his trumpet, tho in habitants of tho other would not pay the slightest attention to tho summons. When tho people of Minneapolis heard that Doran and Kelly, to save themselves from utter discomfiture, had secured the appointment of a citizen of St. Paul for superintendent of tho public building in their city, they roso up in rebellion to a man. On Thursday night last tens of thousands of peoplo formed themselves into a torchlight procession parading Kelly's effigy preparatory to burning it. What was meant to savo them from disgrace became tho causo of their destruction. Kelly and Doran aro overwhelmed. No one in Washington can sufficiently comfort them. Doran at onco worked his plans to Ieavo tho country for a time at least, and will proceed to Now York for passage to Ireland, and Kelly will for a soason retire to tho banks.of tho White Bear lake, bound by an oath never again lo resume the business of office broker in Washington. In the language oitho chairman, they "know more than they did when they set ont." But both aro good Democrats, and a brigh ter day doubtless awaits thomin the future.
