It is reported from Gray's harbor
that Chinamen are dropping in there

A neat thing in the way of orna

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

last evening.
Men of considerable experience say
that when completed, the new resi

A meeting of Northern Pacific di

The ship Benjamin F. Packard,

What a lot of work the legislators
will have at the coming session!
The matter of corrections, alone, will

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.

out.
The crow of the British bark ITiyh

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

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.

PETROLEUM AND COAL.
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

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.
