A grap5viue telegram to Frank Parker, captain Rescue hose team, made oodles of sport yesterday. If it was a suro enough dispatch, the terms might prob ably be arranged even yet. County Clerk Trenchard is in receipt of the Oregon laws of 1835. It is a thril ling work, and so fascinating in its na ture that ono can hardly tear himself away from it if ho once gets reading it. Thoro will be a special trip made by the I?. It. Thompson from Portland to Clatsop to-day. The boat will leave Portland at 10 a. a:., and it is expected passengers will reach the Seaside at 8 v. m. Madame Janauschek is making phe nomenal success with "My Life,' wher ever played. Crowded houses are testify ing to the power of the play and the won derful dual impersonation of the great actress. Judge Greene, of Washington territory, who tried to usurp the prerogatives of the Almighty a short time ago, has coin ed n new word, "ambisexual." The am baginous charactor of the word makes its ambigena! meaning somewhat amblyg- onal. An Astoria barber Is authority for the statement that such a thing as a bald headed fool was never knewn: that those who have lost tho hair of tho head are always people of intelligence, and that idiots invariably have a superabundance of coarse hair. The now mayor of East Portland in taking office calls attention to the neces sity of economy in financial mattors, and says that financially Eat Portland's municipal affairs need an attendant physician and careful nursing. Fire de partment salaries cost East Portland $700 last year. The contract to build the pilot boat for use on the bar, has been let by the Oregon state board of pilot commission ers to Jno. Rutterof this city. He is to build and furnish her complete and have her ready to be turned over for inspection by the 1st of next October. The amount available for the purpose is 10,000. The Shubricl: arrived in with a large party from tho north yesterday after noon, being those who had selected a sight on Destruction island for the now lighthouse. Tho Shubricl: put off twenty tons coal at Ft. Robinson, where every thing is readiness for the fog signal, which begins operations there next Wednosday. Tho recent action of F. A. Moore, of St. Helens, is worthy of no tice. While attending court recently in Hillsboro he was offered a largo feo to defend a wretch who had beon indicted and was about to be convicted on a charge .of rape on a girl of fourteen. Mr. Moore emphatically refused. His action is worthy of high praise and im itation. One of the few leading stars in the country, that travels in state, befitting a crowned head, is Janauschek. Her parlor is a marvel of luxurious elegance and comfort, and contains, not only a splen did suite of apartments for tho distin guished tragedienne, but also all the re quirements for her manager, Mr. H. J. Sergeant, under whoso able management she is having a season unsurpassed in its artistic and financial triumphs. Jaunu schek will appear at Ross" new opera house June 29th and 30th. Senator J. N. Dolph came down from Portland yesterday afternoon to see As toria, the lower Columbia, and tho work going on at tho Columbia bar. Senator Dolph takes a great deal of interest in this work and loses no opportunity of making himself thoroughly acquainted with tho requirements and necessities of this as well as other sections of the state. He went down to Ft. Canby yes terdav afternoon on tho Argonaut which Mr. Cook placed at his disposal, and to day goes on Mr. Leinenweber's boat, the .4. B. Field, to see tho progress of the government work at Ft. Stevens. A funny sort of fight occurred in one of the upper town hacks on Chenamus street yesterday morning. The drivers of two opposition hacks got calling each other pet names, and at last one jumped aboard his rival's vehicle and started in to build a man sard roof over his right eye. The scuffle started the horsos to run away, and tho fighting pair had to let go to stop the team. As soon as tho affrighted steeds were quieted, the humans started in again hammering each other, but were finally separated. It was lots of fun for all those who had time to take it in. i a curious tumguapieucd on i promi nent street yesterday morning. An el derly gentleman -a as passing a certain house whe-u there came a crash, and the fragments of a glass bottle of whisky holding sort, were strewn at hi.s feet. Tho pedestrian made an instantaneous halt, and instead of looking up to geo where the bottle came from, fumbled hurriedly in the tail pocket of the overcoat swinging over his arm. Apparently ho found everything safe, and at the same instant saw that he had given himself away, for he walked off rapidly with a sheepish loos on ma lace. A moment later a scared face poepsd over the lintel of a second-story window. Yesterday a business man brought to Thk Astobias office some freight billn of the O. R. & N. company, which he had just paid. The usual gouge of primage wa.; marked in figures fair to see, but a nfew wrinkle of that contemptible swin dle was marked in a separate charge, "0." What in the name of the great Elijah Smith is "C"! We of Astoria have leen familiar with multitudinous and long continued means "f making us contribute after the fashion of polite road agents who collect compulsory trib ute, but "C" rather gets us. What is it for anyhow? If any ono or two can ex plain, there is an eager constituency standing on tiptoes ready and yearning for information. In answer to a question regarding the taidmess of declaration of the forfeiture of tho Astoria laud grant, Senator Dolph yesterday told the writer that he had re peatedly visited the general land office in Washington and had directed the atten tion r the officials in charge to the fact that though the net of forfeiture had passed congress February "5rd, no official notification of the forfeiture had yet been received bv Jte-jister Marin at Oregon city. The conuuisoioner's reply was that he had an immense amount of business iKjfore him and hadn't got to that yet: that he was desirous of giving everything in his department hit? personal att- ntion and that there were a great manj things that he did not cire to trust to subor dinates. Senator Dolph received the im pression that the commissioner is a well moaning and competent official, and that lie is desirous of going slow and making no mistake. In this pirtcular instance the public interest demands speedier at If ntion to its business. PXE-JS EXCL'IiSIO.V AlTKICSATIl. Several little incidents in connection with the Iown press excursion were not reported because it was in better taste to withhold publication until after they were en route home. Last Monday a gentleman and his wife were standing in front of Stone's window admiring the fruit and particularly the aquarium filled with gold fish. They looked around in quiringly, and presently a well known Portlander who came along, slopped. With the utmost innocence, the ladv, pointing to the goldfish, asked, "Are these young salmon?" On tho trip to Astoria on tha magnificent Wide West, everyone admired the steamer, and ex pressed pn:is3 ill extravagant terms. As the boat swung into the Columbia, one of the editors approaching an Oreyu nittn reporter who was sitting near the wheel watching the broad wake of tho steamer, asked in all earnestness, "Is this a side-wheel or astern-whoel boat?'' The excursionists arrived in Tacoraa about dark, and were taken immediately to the splendid hotel in that city, where they were sumptuously entertained. They left the next afternoon at two. "Anil there's where we made our big mistake." said a Tacoma merchant to a Portlander in tho party. "We ought to have got them off at . o'clock the next morning. They would have imagined that every thing about the town was in keeping with the grand proportions or the hotel, but they staid half a day and looked around, and came to tho conclusion that the ho tel was the only big thing we had to show. It was a great mistake to keep them." OrryoMutH. NJiailwv.s of a (treat City. We are to have presented at the Ross' Opera house this Saturday ovoning, June 27. that sterling melo-drama, "Shadows of a Great City," one of tho beat pieces of the kind yet given to the public. Un like most melo-dramas to which we have been introduced, "Shadows of a Great City" is an American play, and is Amer ican in everything. The scenic effects introduced are Tealfatic, and the charac ters are lyps of every-day life seen in aui city. The plot is a pleasant depart ure froin the old repetitions of English melo-dramas. Ono of the groat features of the play is the abundance of incidents, thrilling ana exciting, wliicn rapidly fol low each other, keeping tho auditor inter ested throughout the play. Tho company presenting this play is one of the strong est organizations on the road, tho names that head it Lewis Morrison, George Osbourne, and L. U. Stockwell being a guarantee of its strength and character. Reserved seats on sale at the New York Novolty store. fleeting S:ifur:Jaj- Kvcniug.

TIIE HERO 15 BLUE OE HT REI. Confidence Engine company of Lo3 Angeles, Cal., recently celebrated its tenth anniversary with "high jinks," at which Hon. E. F. Spencc, mayor of tho city, a fireman of thirty yeara standing, and many other distinguished citizens wero speakers. A notable feature of tho occasion was tho reading of the subjoined noeni. written exnresslv for the festivi ties by Lt. IS. Alosher. It is a fine produc tion, wouhy of the cause, as the cause is worthy of it. Like Mr. Mosher's poem, "The Stranded Bugle." which went the rounds of tho press, "Tho Hero in Blue, or in Red," will be widely copied and read everywhere with pleasure, and espe cially so wherever the boys run with tho machine. The poem is as follows; Where pennants of flame stream the far thest Through the night, with their Terrible glare. Where the bells, in the belfries aquiver, Boom out on the ambient air. Where the danger is dizzy and awful, Whero eyes are akindled with dread, Thero rallies tho themo of your poet Tho hero in blno, or in red. He's an every-day hero, but valor In not of a timo nor a place, And honor is often withholden From him wo should praise to tho fnce; So my lyre is tuned to tho measure To-night of the luster that's shed On bravery and brawn all about ns, By heroes in blue, or in red. Tho warrior, in song and in story, Is praised for the battles he's won; But here is a valorous soldier Who fights whero no'er thunders a gun. And no knight of tho lance or tho sabre. Is worthier a plnco at the head Of tho roll-call of heroes than this one Our hero in blue, or in red. No fiamo is so fierco 'cross his pathway But dares ho to find a way through No parapet towers so high but It yields him a good point of view: His axe is tho sword of the righteous, From a conflict he never has fled, And where ho is needed you find him This hero in blue, or in red. Like a meteor flash through tho darkness He speeds where tho danger is dire, And the zeal of the zealot is his, as His eyes greet the billows of fire; The toppling of walls does not blonch him As with life held by slenderest thread, His ringing cheer pierces the darkness This herb in blue, or in red. As a friend ho is steadfast and loyal, As a lover ho's tender and true, While his ways are the ways of tho breczas lhat swim 'round tho mountains of blue: His hand-grasp in warm'as hia heart is, And wo call him "Dick," "Harry," or "Fred," But ho's always, whenever you find him, A hero in blue, or in red. And it's fit that we meet him and greet him With roses and stanzas of song.

MXCOKTS FRIEXn. Jfakini; High Officials anil Ladles Stand Aside. George Clark, an eccentric man in humblo circumstances, was an early friend of Lincoln, who subsequently re moved to New Eugland. Ho met Lin coln in Boston during a stumping tour in the east. A few years passed and Mr. Lincoln was the man of the hour. Clark, whenever I met him, was talking about him. "I can have any offico I want,' he said emphatically: Abo will look out for me." I thought him a ilreamer. and like all his acquaintances, doubted his claim. Shortly after Clark said he was going to have an office, and that in order to get it ho must have 12 to pay his fare to Washington. I told him it was a useless undertaking. Ho laughed at me. Alie would not refuse hjm anything he asked. He had mado nr; his mind to havo a post office. I told him that 12 would only pay his fare, and that everything was so high and tho hotels so crowded that ho could not live twenty-four hours in Washington. Again ho laughed in my face, and then said: "What do I care for hit?h prices and hotels? Abo'll take caro of me. All I want is money enough to get there." Half in earnest, half in jest, the money was raised and Clark went to AVnshing ton. A reception was taking placo at the White House, and a man of his plebeian nppearanco was not only "out of place," but was hustled about in an unceremon ious maimer and in ono way and another deterred from approaching Mr. Lincoln. Clark's patienco under the embarrassing situation served him for more than an hour, when hunger and anxiety about a place to "put up for tho night," caused him to Ipso his discretion and become desperate. Mounting n chair just as a foreign minister was about approaching Mr. Lincoln, ho sang out, "Abe! Abe!' Mr. Lincoln instantly recognized tho speaker. The passing pageant of chival ry and fashion became to his mind Bko the unreality of a dream from which he had been suddenly aroused, and in all the brilliant assembly ho saw only George Clark, tho man who had shared with him tho hardships and privations of frontier life in tho days of small things. "Mako way for my friend!" exclaimed tho president, and tho surprised ladies and gentlemen paused in astonishment as Mr. Clark approached Mr. Lincoln, and was received with a cordiality and warmth of greeting that had not been accorded any other guest of the evening. A few minutes later Mr. Lincoln ex cused himself from tho reception and passed into another room with his old friend and closed tho door. Tho scene that followed is known only through Mr. Clark, and, es ho was inclined some what to exaggerate circumstances, must be considered with some grains of allow ance. Mr. Lincoln, so Clark repeatedly told his friends, was as familiar and off-hand as in their youth. Ho leaned against tho wo!! and laughed. Ho was like an over joyed boy. "You don't know," ho said, "how glad I am to seo you. The face of an old friend is like a ray of sunshine through dark and ominous clouds. I've shook hands till I'm tireder than I ever was splitting niils.' He inquired where Clark was stopping and if ho had been to supper, and when Clark told him that he was 'stopping with Abe Lincoln anil hadn't had anything of any account to eat since leaving home," he ordoreil tho best the "White House afforded set before him while ho returned to "finish up the business he had in hand." Finally ho told Mr. Lincoln tho object of his visit and solicited the. Lawrenco postmaster ship. Mr. Lincoln laughed at him and said: "You ain't quite up in education. George, to take that kind of a job. But Pve fixed you all snug and right. Take tln3 letter.' The letter was ad dressed: "To tho collector of tho port of Boston." Clark presented himself nt the gcustom -house" ono morning, and, upon being snubbed by ono and another when he inquired for the !collector, re marked that he had a letter from his friend Abraham Lincoln, addressed to tho gentleman for whom he had inquired. This opened tho doors. Tho letter said, in substance: "The bearor is my friend, George Clark, Give him tho best posi tion ho can fill. If he fails in one place give him another." Tho collector set tled him ns watch-man on board vessels in tho harbor a borth in which ho could sleep as much as ho liked at 1,200 a year. Corr.
