It is reported that four or five resi dents of upper Astoria are suffering from trichinia spiralis caused by eat ing uncooked pork. The upper Astoria postofiice has been re-established with tfr. Jas. Bell as postmaster, who yesterday re ceived his commission. A China house adjacent to C. Lein euweber's cannery fell last Monday; two Chinamen were in the house at the time but escaped uninjured. The gymnasium apparatus is now in place in the first story of the Y. M. C. A. rooms, and adds much to the attractiveness of that institution. The old original Chinook salmon, a yard wide, all wool, thirty-six inches around the chest and the trade mark blown in the bottle tastes just as good in February '8G as it did any previous year. Columbia assembly Knights of La bor though but recently organized has nearly 100 members. The assem bly has not yet got its charter, upon receipt of which it will assume its of ficial number.

''For the first time in all the years I've been here there isn't a single game running in the town," said an old time sport to the writer yester day afternoon. "There isn't mouey enough in it to keep a game going." The grass is a little short, that's a fact Considerable of the salmon pack of '88 is already reported sold. The prices stated are not very flattering. The only thing about it is that the packers selling can figure on a sure basis, and know just what their re ceipts will be and figure on their ex penses accordingly. A movement is on foot looking to the establishment of a temporary life saving station on Sand island the coming season to aid in r&scuiug the lives of fishermen who may be in per il at that point and who without the assistance it is proposed to give would surely perish. Harry Wood came down from Wa terford on the Telephone yesterday, with 500 pounds of fine smelt. He says they were running thick Monday and yesterday. Last year the little fish deserted the Columbia altogether, but they are making up for it this year in double quantity. The Tacoma papers are devoting columns to arguments that "Portland is not a sea port" After they get through they will also begin proving that water is wet; that summer is warmer than winter; that the sun gives light; that the moon is round, and other difficnlt theorems. A young lady came to the home of Mr. John Kopp, proprietor of the Pacific brewery at an early hour yes terday morning and demanded board and lodging. Mr. Kopp had never seen her before, but as he was assured that she -was all right he made no objections to her remaining. She weighs 8 pounds. On the 19lh inst, is the twenty third anniversary of the founding of the order of Knights of Pythias. Few cities of its size in the Union have as large a constituency of mem bers of the K. of P. as Astoria. Astor Lodge No. G aud Pacific Lodge No. 17 propose to have a grand ball at Ross' opera house on the evening of the 19th aud are now making arrange ments to that effect. Mail advices from Liverpool under date of January 2nd, report the salm on market as follews: A good steady country demand has been experi enced during the past few days, and shows clearly what attenuated stocks are held by retailers, so that we ex pect the new year will open with a large trade and higher prices are bound to result, as the present rates are really lower than the exigencies of the situation warrant "Water is 4 cents a gallon in Prov idence, San Bernardino Co., Cala." When we look out of our office window and see 79,000 gallons a minute fall ing out of the sky and think of the 4 cents a gallon that could be had for it in Providence, spot cash, we real ize that the ways of Providence are past finding out. Talk about Van derbilt's $18 a minute! It would bo nowhere alongside of our hourly, or minalely, or secondly income. The AsotKian would ocoupy a four story brick block before the year was out. perhaps, though, we wouldn't be auy happier than now. The immense stock at the Crystal Palace amounting to $25,000 worth of goods of all description will be thrown on the market and sold at reckless prices as it has to be disposed of in a very short time.

The Astoria Musical Society gave a fine performance last evening to a largo and appreciative audience at Liberty Hall. The programme was an interesting one and in its rendi tion was well received, the applause leiug impartially distributed and thoroughly deserved. About thirty ladies and gentlemen appeared on the stage, and the programme was gone through with ease and celeritv, there not being the slightest hitch in the entire performance. To the la dies belonged the honors of the occa sion for m their silvery voices lay much of the music which was ably reiutorced by the gentlemen's deeper tones in the background. Prof. E. L. Bettiuger was the musical con ductor, aud Miss Hattie Bitely acted as accompanist on the piano. The first section of the programme was composed of single parts, solos, duetts, etc., supported by the full choral strength of the society; the second part was the cantata of "Spring," full of pleasing melody and made up of a variety of musical num bers, to the 10th and 12th of which was severally awarded an encore. It was a finished performance creditable to all who look part in it aud a source of pleasure to all present. TO THE PUBLIC. Since "we have discovered indisput able evidence of the presence of the pork disease, or trichina spiralis we hereby warn all persons not to eat of any raw ham, pork or sausages which has not been thoroughly cooked. The smoking of sausages or ham will not kill these parasites, neither will cooking kill them unless the meat is thoroughly cooked to the center. Aug. C. Kinnev, M. D. J. A. Fulton, M. D.

TELE- There was a heavy fog on the river yesterday, the flood tide was setting strongly eastward and the wind was blowing straieht un stream. These three conditions taken together made a combination difficult for a steam boat or any other kind of a boat Jto overcome, so that when Capt Whit comb at the wheel of the Telephone blew his whistle a few minutes past one o'clock it was evident that that favorite boat had made unusually good time. To leave Portland at six o'clock, run by compass 110 miles in a fog, take on ana put on ireigur, and get to Astoria at one o'clock against wind and tide is something any boat might be proud of and that few boats could parallel on this or any other river. Yesterday the new buckets on the wheel of the Telephone had a fair chance to show what they could do. The result is every way satisfactory, and a credit to Captain U. B. Scott and Mayor J. C. Trullinger, of this city, whose ideas on that subject they embody. The buckets are twenty inches wide and are so made that they have a curve, being four inches in thickness on the inside of the wheel to which they are attached, aud gradually tapering andcurving to a thickness of oue and three-fourths inches on the outer rim of the wheel. This, it is claimed, (and the increased speed appears to prove it) results in doing away with the necessity of lifting an enormous mass of water on the buckets, for as soon as the buckets leave the surface of the water what is on them begins to slip off, and be fore they have risen level with the shaft it has all gone. In backing, the effect of the new buckets is still more manifest, as the striking of heavy masses of water against the wheel house is obviated. Capt Scott thiuks that the new paddle wheels enable a saving of fifteen per cent iu fuel aud increase the speed of his boat ten per cent A Growing Evil. From Capt. J. H. D. Gray it is learned that the Hen. Miles has been withdrawn from the cape and Ilwaco route and the Gen. Canby substi tuted. This has been rendered nec essary by the continued shoaling of the channel. It is now a difficult matter for a steamer of the Miles' draught at all times to get into Il waco or the cape. The usual route between the wreck of the Great lie public and the capo will not admit of the passage of a vessel at low tide drawing more than nine feet of water. The wreck which used to stick up at high water is gradually burying it self in the sand, aud will soon cease to be the prominent landmark it has been for nearly seven years. It looks now as though Sand Islaud would change its position aud that a new islaud will be formed at what is now Peacock spit Whistling For "Wild Geesp. W. H. Parks sent a steam engine to the Sutter County Laud company's place, in Sutter county, last week, with which to "herd" wild geeso off the growing grain. Unfortunately, a tuba leaked and let so much water into the fire box that steam could not be got up. The whistfe is said to be a most effective instrument in fright ening the geese from the fields, and will clear the country for miles around. The geese seem to regard the whistle as just a little toot toot for anything. Maryscilh; Cala. Ap peal. X Sturlliuir Discovert. Physicians are often startled by re mark'uhlc discoveries.

A newspaper that has to get money from any other source but subscriptions and advertis ing can not win. The Heios proprie tors cannot afford to place themselves under obligations to men who sooner or later will expect reciprocal favors, and then change their requests to de mands when not complied with. The wreck of the Arabella, re cently lost near Victoria, was sold for 2,299.79 and salvage charges were Sl.067.17, netting $1,232.65; the cargo of lumber sold for SG70, and the salvage charges were fc'ida.od; there was also a small quantity of barrel salmon which went for an in significant figure.

Response to a Toast at a Ben Franklin Banquet. "All things change in the procession of years, and it may be that I am anions strangers. It may bo that the printer of to-day is not tho printer of thirty-five years ngo. I was no stran ger to him. I kuew him well. I built his fire for him in tho winter mornings; I brought his water from the village pump; I swept out his of fice; I picked up his type from under the stand; aud, if he was there to see, I put the good type in his case, and the broken ones among the 'hell mat ter'; and, if he wasn't there to see, I dumped it all with the 'pi' on the im posing stone for that was the furtive fashion of the cub, and I was a cub. I wetted down the paper Saturdays, I turned it Sundays for this was a country weekly; I rolled, I washed the rollers. I washed the forms, I folded the papers, I carried them around at dawn Thursday mornings, I enveloped the papers that were for the mail we had 100 town subscrib ers and 350 country ones; the town subscribers paid in groceries and the country ones in cabbages and cord wood when they paid at all, which was merely sometimes, and then we always stated tho fact iu the paper, and gave them a puff; and if we for got it they stopped the paper. Every man on the town list helped edit the thipg that is, ho gave orders as to how it was to be edited; dictated its opinions, marked out its course for it, and ever time the boss failed to connect, he stopped his paper. We were just infested with critics, and we tried to satisfy them all over. We had one subscriber who paid cash, and he was more trouble to us than all the rest. He bought us, once a year, body and soul, for 2. He used to modify our politics every which way, and he made us change our religion four times iu live years. If we ever tried to reason with him, he would threaten to stop his paper, and, of course that meant bankruptcy and destruction. That man used to write articles a column and a half loug, leaded long primer, and sign them 'Junius' or 'Veritas' or 'Vox Populi,' or some other high souuding rot; and then, after it was set up. he would come in and say ho had changed his mind which was a gild ed figure of speech, because he hadn't auy and order it to be left out. Wo couldn't stand such a waste as that; we couldn't afford 'bogus' in that of fice; so we always took the leads out, altered the signature, credited the article to the rival paper in the next village, and put it in. Well, we did have one or two kinds of 'bogus.' Whenever there was a barbecue, or n circus, or a baptizing, we knocked off for half a day; and then to make up for short matter we would 'turn over ads' turn over the whole page and duplicate it The other 'bogus' was deep philosophical stnff, which we judged nobody ever read; so we kept a galley of it standing and kept ou slappiug the same old batches of it iu. every now aud then, till it got dangerous. Also, in the early days of the telegraph we used to econo mize on the news. We picked out the items that were poiutless aud bar ren of information aud stood them on a galley, aud changed the dates and localities and used them over aud over again till the public interest iu them was worn to the bone. We marked the ads, but we seldom paid any attention to tho marks after ward; so the life of a 'Id' ad and a 'tf ad was equally eternal. I have seen a 'td notice of a sheriff's sale still booming serenely along two years after the sale was over, tho sheriff dead and the whole circum stance become ancient history. Most of the yearly ads were pat ent medicine stereotypes, and we used to fence with them. Life was easy with ns; if we pied a form Ave suspended till next week, and we always suspended every now and thenwheu the fishing was good, and explained it by the illness of the editor, 11 paltry excuse because that kiud of a paper was just as well off with a sick editor as a well one, and bet ter off with a dead out thau with either of them. He was full of blessed ego tism aud placid self-importance, but he didn't know as much as a 3 em quad. He never set any type except in the rush of the last day, and then he would smouch all the poetry, and leave the rest to 'jefT for the solid takes He wrote with impressive flat ulence and soaring confidence upon the vastest subjects; but puffing alms gifts of weJding cake, salty ice cream, abnormal watermelons, and sweet potatoes the size of your leg was his best hold. He was always a poet a kind of poet of the Carrier's Address breed and Whenever his intellect suppurated, aud he read the result to the printers and asked for theiropin ion they were very frank and straight forward about it. They generally scraped their rule3 on tho boxes all the time he was reading, and called it hog wash' when he got through. AH this was thirty-five years ago, when the man who could set 700 an hour could put on just as many airs as he wanted to; aud if these New York men who recently on a wager set 2. 000 an hour solid minion for four hours on a stretch had appeared m that office, they would have been re ceived as accomplishers of the su premely impossible, and drenched with hospitable beer till tho brewery was bankrupt , "I can see that printing office of pre historic times yet, with its horse bills ou the walls, 'its 'd boxes clogged with tallow, because we always stood the candle in tho 'k' box nights; its towel, which was not considered soiled until it could stand alone, and other signs and symbols that marked the establishment of that kind in the Mississippi valley; and I can see also the tramping 'jour who flitted by iu the summer and tarried a day, with his wallet stuffed with one shirt and n lmtfnl nf lmnd-bills: for if he couldn't get any type to set he would do a temperance lecture. His way of life was simple, his needs not com plex; all he wanted was plate and bed, and money enough to get drunk on and he was satisfied. But it may be, a3 1 have said, that I am among strangers, and sing the glories of a forgotten age to unfamiliar ears, so I will 'make even' and stop. DEPARTMENT OF OREfiOX W. R. CORPS.
