S. coast survey schooner Ytdxm has been laid up in tho harbor of Viotoria ever sinco last fall and very naturally wants to know why an American Government vessol should bo wintered and repaired in a foreign port when there were so many good American port close by. The lighthouse board at Washington has awarded the contract for building a a marine boiler for the steamer Man zanila to Moynihan & Aitken of San Francisco. Their bid was $7,400, and the- agree to complete it in 120 days. The highest bid for the same job Tras ?14,000. and the next lowest to the suc cessful bid w.is $3,000.

JAMUSCIIKK. Tho groat tragedienne appeared at Bo? opera house last ovening in a new play to Astonans " My Life." The audience was not very large, n fact duo not to any lack of appreciation of Mme. Janauschek's genius, but because a good many people think 1.."0 for a seat is a good deal of money. They think that as the price of everything else is down from that of former years, the prica of amuse- mont should follow. They aro right. Mr. Sargent would do better at one dol lar. On the other hand it must be said that Madams Januuschok ranks with Nillson, Patti, and other artistes, to nee whom is gladly given from 2 to $4 for an ordi nary seat. It is the province of gonitis to be high priced and of course if one wants to seo the greatest living tragedi enne they must pay the price set. Mine, tfauauschek is abovo criticism usu-illy bestowed on thovj who appear behind the footlights. Long since she won success and preeminent fame and to day stands at the head. The play she ap jwarcd in last evening is a singular one. its beat point seems tole the opportunity it gives Mine. Janauschek to personato two such diametrically opposite charac ters as Leben and Circe: in tho one a brilliant adventuress: in the other a ten der loving woman. Mr. Alex. II. Stuart who charmed an Astoria audience in "Mother and Son," two years ago, was equally successful in his :Sir Lionel Ellwood." Mr. Geo. D. Chaplin again renewed tho pleasant re collections of the same trip, in his clever rendition of the important part of "Fred eric Boston." The ladies deserve praise for their impersonations. If tho performance could begin at eight o'clock, and if peoplo could got to their seats b&fore the first act is half through and if there was some mnt ting in the aisles and entrances to deaden tho sound and the echo of tho footfalls and if one or two other little matters of gen eral, com fort and convenience could be attended to tho performance would bo more mutually satisfactory to both play ers and audience. To-night will no given the creat play of "Zillah, or tho Woman in Bed." This is Mras. Janauschok's last app?arauce in Astoria. Reserved seats at New York Novelty Store. SUUDEX DHATII. About nine o'clock last night, James MsCann camo to coroner Boss1 office and toll him of the serious illness and proba ble death of a man that had come up with him in his fishing boat from Fort Stevens. It appears that McCann took him into his boat at Fort Stevens, the man asking for a ride from Fort Stevens. He didn't act anyway out of the ordinary, until just below the Seaside cannery when he went forward to put up tho spru in me ooai, wucn no couguou nnu began to spit blood. Ho turned around between tue paroxysms of couGhmc and asked McCann "what am I to do?" Mc Cann told him not to Get frightened, but he coughed incessantly and finally began to vomit Uloau. McUann careu lor him in the boat as well as he could, but tho man grew weaker and was evidently dy ing, McCann landed tho boat at Gray's dock and when he got there sent for Dr. Fulton and then reported to tho coroner. The mau was brought to the doctor's of fice and for an hour and a half they worked with him but to no purpose, he having breathed his last shortly after tho boat touched tho shore.

T1JK PICNIC ISACRHAT ISSTITCTIO.V. Editoh Astebun: I make this assertion in all confidence, feeling sure that no one who has ever been there will dispute it. It is useful in many ways. It helps to mako up a var iety, which is tho spice of life. When a person becomes tired of his comfortable home, tired of his overy day work, tired of eating clean victuals out of clean dish es placed on a clean table, with a com fortable chair to sit in, tho only remedy yet discovered is to go n-picnicing, carry a basket of grub two or three miles on a rough road, up hill and down, over logs and through mud, get lost two or three times and finally bring up at your destin ation, hot, tired, and demoralized gener ally. Oh, it is glorious fun. It was tho favorite and commodious steamer Clara Parker which carried the victims this time, and Young's river falls the place selected. Wo left Main street wharf at 9 a. it. with a jolly and expect ant crowd. Tho weather was all that could be desired. Tho bay was beauti ful in its calm stillness. A fishing boat hero and there, a littlo steamer puffing along in a complacent, self-important way, as though it thought tho river was made expressly for her benefit, gavo var iety to the scene. As wo neared Smith's point, the steamer R. It. Thompson was seen coming from Fort Clatsop, and in tho peculiar hazy atmosphcro she looked likesomo vast floating palace lying on tho water. The ride up Young's bay is a delightful one. Some time in tho future when As toria gets to be a largo city, somebody will have a boat houso near where tho old mill stood, so that a person can run across from town any day and hire a boat, and sail or run around tho bay to his heart's content. There will bo scull ing races and all kinds of races such as they have in other places where nature has provided so fine an opportun ity; but at present tho bay and surround ing country wonr a primeval look, and with tho exception of now and then a house and clearing, there is nothing to indicate that tho hand of man had be gun tho work of subjugation. The scene as wo steamed along the bay, heading south, was one to mako the heart of an artist glad. Tho atmosphero was clear and Saddle mountain showed to advant age, whilo tho near hills covered with dense forests, and tho green tido lands on cither side, mako up a picture not easy to excel. But soon we have reached a point beyond which tho Clara Parker cannot safely go, and accordingly we haul along side of tho bank and tie up. The small boats are lowered and we prepare to tako a short voyage in them. Wo are finally landed with our lunch baskets, etc, and now tho trouble begins. Just the best way to reach tho falls, seems to bo n question nobody in our crowd can answer; but wo skirmish around and by perseverance and energy reach tho placo in tho courso of time. It is not necessary to try to describe l'oung's river falls. Nearly every Asto rian has seen them one time or another. It is a very pretty, cosy littlo place and the f rash, cool breeze caused by the wat ers dashing on the rock, the hills on eith er sido covered to the water's edge with evergreens, alder, maple, etc., make it a most delightful place after tho hardships attending tho journey hither. Sitting in the cool shado and gazing at at the falling water, and trying to pene trate tho " forest primeval" with the im agination ono feels for tho minute that picnicing is not so bad after all. After a short rest tho ladies of the party devoted their principal attention to the lunch. And with tho proverbial picnicer's appetite every one proceeded to do justice to that part of the programme. After demolishing tho good things (and ordinary eatables tasto pretty good when the appetite is sharpened by tho unusual exercise), tho party enjoyed themsalves in various ways for a couple of hours. Some wandored o'er the hill gather ing berries, flower.;, or whatever tojk their fancy, some trout fishing whilo others simply took jt easy and enjoyed tho time in a quiet woj But time passes quickly and it became necessary to prepare for a .start towards the steamer. AN o cot to the boat landing with less'difiicnlty than wo experienced in coming, end altera pleasant row down the stream wo reached tho Clara Parker in safety. While waiting for stragglers to bo gathered in we listened to the tales of adventure and rough experience which some of the party had gone through. beveral gentlemen wuoso names l will not mention, got off the road entirely and wandered around for some two hours and finally got bask to wbere they started from more by good luck ttiau good man agement. One man in particular was so exhausted, or so appalled at the idea of having to pass tho remainder of his days in these woods that ho became nnablo to proceed, and it was with tho greatest dif ficulty that he reached the open country and got back to the steamer. Ho said he had not seen tho falls he oxpected to but ho had had falls enough for one day. The trip homo was not particularly eventful, we had somo singing and pleas ant conversation and reached the wharf at Astoria in good time and well pleased with the trip generally. Mc.
