A man who had a minuto to spare yes terday was telling why it was that the Portland folks mado a failuro of tho bal loon ascension on tho 4th. Ho said the day was so warm that the hot air in tho balloon was cooler than tho hot air out side, and tho blamed thing refused to stir. Mebbe so. Tho report of the supremo chancellor of the Knights of Pythias, for tho year ending March 31, 1883, shows 2,0G9 subor dinate lodges, with an aggregate mem bership of 154,900, an increaso of about 10,000 over the last report. The order is spreading rapidly in Mexico and tho South American states. H. D. Pugsley, who killed Jno. Mcin tosh on tho south fork of tho "Willapa last Tuesday, gave himself np to tho offi cers immediatly after tho commission of the deed. Mcintosh was a single man. Pugsley has a wife and two children. Tho quarrel is said to havo been about a fallen tree, but all accounts of the affuir are very meager. Fires on every sido mako tho atmos phere close and add to the general dis comfort produced by tho present heat. Tho sun at noon looks down from a cop pery sky, and sets in flame; the moon comes up like a blood smeared disc, and wears an uncanny look all night, and every puff of wind makes ono think there's a firo somowhere so pungent and smoky does it striko the nose. Frank Parker advertises that after the 1st he will sell goods for cash -only. If that plan was adopted all over town it would be sonic inducement to those who pay cash all the time. As it is thero is very little encouragement to a man to pay coin at tho time because ho doesn't get tho purchase a bit cheaper than tho man who has to bo dunned and dunned and dunned and who finally wants to set tle at a discount. Tho board of fire delegates met last ovening and appointed judges and clerks for the ensuiuc election for chief encin- eer of tho Astoria fire department which takes place on tho tenth of next month.

Tho polls will be at 2"s engine house. "While visiting at Foster's placo on Crooked creek, across the river, last week, Geo. M. Howe heard a commotion one day near the house aud saw a hugo 1,000 pound black bear seize and carry off a 200 pound hog. Ho got a rifle and followed Mr. bear, finally getting a range shot at him, taking him in tho shoulder and put ting tho bullet through Bruin's heart. George has ono claw and the funny bono of the bear as trophies, and for a man who wasn't in robust health it was a first class exploit. A boy named Jas. Ferrell was before Justice Goodell yesterday afternoon on a charge of assault and battery. He had flung a stono at tho littlo daughter of Capt. Eben Parker Sunday afternoon, striking the child in the breast and causing grave doubts as to her recovery a3 she was prostrated, having vomited blood. The case was held under advise ment awaiting the result of her injuries. It is a warning to the hoodlum prac tice of throwing stones indulged in by thoughtless boys throughout the city a practice that should bo stopped. FIRE DELEGXTES'IHEETISO. Astohia July 27, 1835.

Bbown, Secty. tiraut lu Portland. Less than two years ago Ulysses S. Grant walked tho streets of the city of Portland, where he had spent the least meritorious portion of his life; where he had been an ill-paid subaltern, looking in vain for promotion and struggling manfully to emancipate himself from the tyranny of drink. Ho canio back to us on the completion of tho Northern Pacific, to find both changed for tho bet ter. Portland had grown from a dirty riverside hamlet into the most cosmopol itan city on tho continent, when its size is considered. And he had become, through the medium of opportunity, not only tho foremost soldier of the ago, but, while still moving in privato life, the foremost citizen of the world's grandest republic. I was talking with another man of self creation, another ono of stern and rugged fiber, since gone over to the silent majority Gen. Ja-T. "W. Nesmith, when we met the man of Fort Douelson. The salute was cordial but characteristic ally terse: "Hello, Grant." " How are you, Nez? " "Grizzly." PORTLAND'S IT. VINT. Break! Broke! Break! On thy marginless shares, O, T.

A gas explosion in the Carbonado coal mine killed a man last Monday. Four men have already lost their lives in that mine on account of the deadly gases.

The Carap The Campers What Tkey Do Lots' Toons; Dream. Tho typical camp is f? miliar to the genoral reader. It consists mainly of a tent, a couple of blankets, a hole in the sand and a dog. Tho tent is used to swelter in until it rains, and then it is tho best place on the premises for any body who wants to get wet. The blank ets are intended for slumbering purposes; but after the first night they aro gener ally requirod to keep tho rnin out of tho meal and tho bugs out of the sugar. The hole in tho sand is the kitchen. The cooking is done there. The cooking is a good deal liko the hole. No particu lar ueo has ever been discovered for tho dog. But ho is always there. Ho makes himself useful, mainly, in eating up the lard and tipping over the milk pail. These aro tho only refreshments he has. His favorite occupation in tho night is to sit closo by the tent door and keep the moon off. Wo forgot to mention the campers. These arc usually male and f emalo eith er or both. They wear blue flannel day and night, and havo sunburned noses. They aro generally hotter fed than the dog, and not quite so lean. They live on whatever tho cook gots up for them. Sometime! be only gets up early in the morning. Then the campers aro very indignant because ho did not let them know that tho provisions were out. The best fun is boating without fish ing, and bathing. Most campers' boats furnish bathing and boating facilities at tho samo time. This is very convenient for those who aro too lazy to undress. Most campers aro desperately lazy. Their food has something to do wf th it. Where there aro males and females, tho bathing has to be done in bathing-suit3. This is very amusing, because you never can tell whether a camper is going bath ing or going out under tho trees to write poetry. Tho bathing-suit and the camping-suit are just alike. As a rule, nobody ever falls in love while out camping. This is what makes mixed parties so safe. It looks awfully dangerous in theory, but when it oome3 to practice" thero isn't anything danger ous about it. A creature who is perfect ly lovely in a ball dress can't smite worth a cent in a blue flannel blouse, with a man's big straw hat tied down over her cars and tho skin peeling off tho'end of her nose. Camps aro great places to cure love, too. If tho young man who goes away to a foreign land with a broken heart, trying to forget her trying in vain, while his heart-strings ache and his np petito dwindles down to a fino point if this poor lore-sick young man could only camp for a week with his dear idol, he would oomo homo with an enormous hankering for roast beef and a big com fortablo patch of contentment on his broken heart.
