C3? Fk JIaUjj Sstoran. ASTORIA, OREGON: SATPKDAY. .OCTOBKKi.lSSd Seattle vrill have through railroad connection to-morrow. Twelve dozen eggs are worth more than a barrel of finest flour here. Astoria has the largest and finest skating rink north of San Francisco. First class Shoalwater bay oysters are selling for S3 a sack in Portland. The boat shop and stable of Charles Shagren, in Oysterville, was burned on Sunday last. Loss, $1,500. It is reported from Gray's harbor that Chinamen are dropping in there from Victoria, in violation of the re striction act. A neat thing in the way of orna ment and use is a gas stove at the residence of O S. Wright; it is be lieved to be the first of the kind in the city. The boat race is announced to be sailed at eleven a. ir. to-day, subject to the decision of the judges. Pools were sold at the Telephone saloon last evening. Men of considerable experience say that when completed, the new resi dence of Capt. Geo. Flavel will be second to none in the state in point of elegance and finish. "Helps and Hiuderances' is the sub jectof to-morrow morning's discourse at the M. E. church. The pastor will speak at the afternoon Y. M. C. A. rooms on "The heroism that wins." A meeting of Northern Pacific di rectors is in session in New York. It is stated that they have confirmed the sale of about 80,000 acres of land to an American syndicate at about $7 per acre. The ship Benjamin F. Packard, with 3,100 tons of grain, is detained at Port Townsend for a crew. It seems that seamen cannot be shipped for Europe for the port wages S20 per month. The government officials that are issuing certificates to Chinese on the CoJoma have a sweet scented job. They put endowment robes on 108 yesterday and have about 200 more to pass upon. What a lot of work the legislators will have at the coming session! The matter of corrections, alone, will take considerable time. And then there is that job of making history, which is always an onerous task. The Weekly Astoriax, chuck full of news and home happenings, is out to-day. Send a copy to friends and acquaintances elsewhere. It is a journal that no Astoriau need be ashamed of as an exponent of the section in which he lives. TheBritish bnrks'Cormoranl, 1,07.', Hume master, 85 days f roni Lacapede bay, Parthia, 1,022, Carruthers mas ter, 51 days from Sydney, and Santi ago, previously reported, arrived in yesterday. The Peri, City of lien ares and T. F. Oalics sailed. The schooners Trustee and Dare and the steamship Walla Walla also crossed out. The crow of the British bark ITiyh moor, says the News, are clamoring for their wages. Six of them threaten to leave the vessel. The sailors claim that about $115 is due to each of them. They say that Captain Whirter desires them to pur chase clothing at a certain store, ho to pay for the same ont of their sal ary. TheNehalem coal discoveries ex cite considerable interest. If what is said is so, and if a road can bo got into that country, the existence of coal there is better for Astoria than any gold mine or railroad that ever was talked of. It the coal is there the road will go there fast enough. Another party is organizing in this city to go there next week. Gen. Minty, a distinguished rail road tyee, is in Portland. The general's name will bo inscribed upon the tablets of the nation's mem ory as the name of the man that in vented the "double order'- in train dispatching. Just what the double order is, is something on which the writer is not very well posted. Any how," he invented it and it is a suc cess. In the matter of county roads it is argued with considerable reason that a road connecting with that to the Walluski, thence crossing in a curv ing direction to the seaside would give required connection from Asto ria to the seaside at less expense than that entailed by the building of the Clatsop road, and obviating the feature of a bridge across Yonng's bay. Nettie Westerfield, died of conges tion of the bowels at the hospital at eleven o'clock yesterday morning. She was in the twentieth year of her age and belonged to the unfortunate sisterhood whose ranks are recruited from those who in the innocent past loved "not wisely but too well." The funeral will take place from lioss undertaking rooms at two o'clock this afternoon. A police officer whose beat takes him into the confines of Chinatown in Portland, said to a News reperter: "The Chinamen are actuallystarving. They Lave no money and there is no work for them. The Canadian Pa cific will be finished shortly, and a large number of them will be thrown out of employment. If they have no money the companies will not keep them, and of course, they are thrown on their own resources." It is the pleasant experience of The Astobiax to receive numerous friend ly answers to bills sent out for sub scriptions to the Weekly, etc. With the amount of the bill comes, in sev eral instances, an extra one cr two year's subscription with instruction to place it to the subscriber's credit In this way many have paid up to '88. Not less satisfactory are the many expressions of good will and kindly feeling on the part of the many to whom The Weekly is a welcome visitor. "WAYSIDE NOTES. The Henderson Bros. & Withers own a fine body of bottom and tido land lying along Young's river, im mediately below the jnnctiou of the Kiaskanine and this river. The bottom is being rapidly cleared. The best part of the timber is cut into cord wood, which is hauled to a wharf on a tide-slough running back into this land, and is there loaded onto wood scows and taken thence to Astoria. This firm cut aud boat away from their land, about 2,01)0 cords annually, thus makimg the wood pro duction go far toward paying the first cost of the timber portion tof the land. There are on the place 175 acres of fine tide lands, which it js the owner3 intention to soon begin to dike. Much of the tide-land is very favorably situated for diking, thm making "the cost of the work nomiual. U. Hassell, living near Grange Hall on Young's river is engaged in the poultry business, the chickens raised being mostly of the mongrel varieties; but there are a number of full-blood Brown Leghorns in the yards. Until the present season the hatching has been done after the old way of set tincr hens, when this nlanwas suonle- meuted bv the use of a common-sense incubator made on the place. Thi being his first experience with an in cubator, Mr. II. did not succeed with the first two clutches of eggs, but profiting by tho experience in hand ling the inenbator managed to get about 80 per cent, of the third clutch to hatch out. For feeding young chicks he uses wheat partly parched and then rather coarsely ground, and also bran and short mixed and then moistened with boil ing water, and after the chicks are a few days old occasionally adding a small pinch of black popper to the food. When chicks are raised with out the brood hen they are kept, for the most part, a few in a place. m rather shallow boxes, with a layer of coarse sacking (old gunny sacks may be used) placed on the bottom, and a covering of the same material loosely placed, but in such way as to allow vontilation. Thus placed the chickens will keep warm aud comfortable during cool weather. When the weather is sunshiny and warm it is well to have a small run of several yards in extent for the chicks to exercise. Air-slaked lime is frequent ly used in dusting the chicken roost and inside parts of the hen house, with good effect in keeping vermin away from the fowls, and the absorp tion of unwolesome odors. Mrs. J. Rowan, of Astoria, is breeding fine poultry. In her yards there are a fine lot of pure-bred birds, consisting of a trio of Buff Cochins from the poultry yards of C. H. Babcock, Exeter, Neb.; a trio of Brown Leghorns bought of R, L. Porter, Mukwanago. Wis.; and three hens and a cockerel from tho poultry yards of G. B. Bailey, Oakland. Cal. In addition to these birds Mrs. R, has in poultry pens thirteen pure-bred Brown Leghorn pullets. AH of these fowls are in fine condition. North western Farmer and Dairymun. Suddrn Death of Mr. Alley Fox. Mr. Alsey Fox, an esteemed resi dent of Victoria, died suddenly in that city at ten o clock yesterday morning from the rupture of a blood vessel. One of his sons, Charlton Fox, was with his father at the time of his death. Two more of his sons, John and Alsey, are well known-residents of this city. The funeral will tako place in Portland, for which place they leave this morning. They have the sympathy of tho community in their bereavement. J. J. Burns, general storekeep er for the Union Pacific railroad, has been in Portland to inspect a largo lot of lumber purchased by the com pany. The lumber will be used for general construction purposes. About $75,000 worth has already been bought, and the company will hereafter purchase 50,000,000 annu ally in that city. The lumber is Or egon pine and" has been found the best. No more cat lumber will be used in the construction of cars for the Union Pacific railroad, except for brake beams. Oregon fir will besub stitued and the cars will be finished with Port Orford cedar. Here's a chance for our local mills to compete for a desirable market. Already con siderable has been sent to Salt Lake and other points from this city, the low rates on the Oregon Short Line making a market for Columbia river lumber. Buclitcir Arnica Salve.

The substitution of petroleum for coal on the Terry steamers of the Central Pacific railroad company was noticed at length in this journal some davs ago. The experiment was first tried on the Solano, which crosses the strait of Carquinez daily with freight and passenger trains. The Solano is tho largest ferry boat in the world. It was not until the use of petroleum on that boat had for months been demonstrated to be a complete success that other ferry boats were adapted to tho use of the same fuel. One largo passenger ferry boat and a large freight ferry boat may now be seen daily crossing and recrossing tho bay without so much as a faint color of smoke issuing from the smokestacks. The saving in the consumption of fuel has already bsen stated. The great iron steamship which for more than a year last past has made an average of three trips a month be tween this port and Tacoma, on Pu get eonnd, bringing down on each trip 4,000 tons of coal from tho Car bon Hill mine, is laid up at tho rail road wharf on the Oakland side. Her smokestack is capped, and it looks as if she would not enter the coal trade again for many a day. It is niven ont that the sailing vessels can bring down coal at cheaper rates thau steamers. But if this were a iaci II was as wen kuuwu vuiuu iuc San Pedro began to bring coal from the Carbon Hill mine as it is now. There is probably another reason for withdrawing the steamers from the coal business. &'. F. liulletin, '20. Spurious Aitorian Two young men, purporting to come from Astoria, and register ing as W. P. Murray and J. W. Davidson, played a confidence game successfully upon a verdant vouth from the coun- try, one Frank Vidal, a few days siuce. une oi me commence meii produced a game, which appeared to be simple and easy to beat. The other borrowed S100 from Yidal to bet on tho game, promising to divide the spoils with him. Of course the ?100 was lost, and they then tried to give Vidal the dodge, who, however, gave :iu alarm, and the confederates were arrested. They gave up the money, whereupon Vidal departed for the east, aud there being no evidenco against them they were discharged from custody, and are now at liberty to work some other unsuspecting vic tim.

What Huntington Says. New York, Oct. 22. A well known Wall street man said to-day that Huntington held the whip hand ov er all the overland business. Being asked what he thought of leasing the Oregon Bail way and Navigation by the Northern and Union Pacific, he said it was almost certain. He argued the former was almost entirely de pendent on the latter. If tho Oregon Navigation company mado a deal with the Southern Pacific, it would only be opening the gate for the Un ion and Northern to parallel their lines to Portland. Syrup orFljj.N.
