PICKLED STURGEON.
Miss Juliet Corson is writing a se
ries of humorous articles in Harper's
Bazaar, entitled how to live on $500
a year. The articles are not intend
ed to bo humorous; that's what
makes them so funny. The author
beg pardon- -the authoress, starts
to show folks who havo only $500 a
year, how to live on that amount.
Any family who will undertake to
follow faithfully her directions will
play in big luck if it doesn't cost
them five times five hundred dollars
a year before the year is out
She advises them- not to buy tho
best cuts of meat that would be ex
travagant but to get a chunk of
slaughterhouse steak "and make it
tender by soaking it in claret" The
idea of a man or woman saving ten
cents on a beefsteak by getting a
piece of the neck and then buying
claret wine to "soak" the steak in be
fore his wife or the hired girl cooks
it!
Juliet goes into raptures over stur
geonpickled sturgeon. Sturgeon,
plain, ordinary sturgeon, i3 bad
enough, but "pickled" sturgeon; just
think of it! Clams, unequaled; oys
ters, fat, jucy and well flavored;
groupers from Tillamook rock; fresh
Chinook salmon, and other good
things sent to our doors by the Giv
er of all good, and Miss Corfon ad
vises "pickled sturgeon.'
Here's her recipe for cooking it.
"A half pint of the water in which
the sturgeon was boiled, a half pint
of vinegar, a teaspoonful of pepper
corns, a blade of mace, a sliced lem
on, and a bay leaf. Scald."
How is that for a mess? The idea
of a man or a woman or a babe wast
ing a healthy appetite on such truck!
If Juliet will get into a street car
and go down to the Fulton market
and buy her a slice of nice Columbia
river salmon and take it home and
have it broiled, she will flop her lip
over something that will make her
forget all about pickled sturgeon,
and will stand a bettor show to make
the the $500 last through the year.
Cinching Travelers on the Sound.
A traveling gentleman who evi
dently was not altogether familiar
with the peculiar methods of trans
portation companies in this part of
the country considered himself very
much imposed upon the other day
when in going from Seattle to Port
Townsend upon the steamer Evangel,
he was charged b'2.5U, while the fare
from Seattle to Whatcom by the
same boat, covering the same route
and three times the distance, was
onlv $2.00. He fiually compromised
the matter by purchasing a ticket
through to Whatcom for $1.50, which
was fif ty cents more than by the regu
lar line from Seattle to Whatcom.
His rage reached its climax, however,
when, on attempting to stop at Port
Townsend, he was not allowed to
leave the boat without paying the
additional $1.00. He is now studying
the laws of the territory to sea by
what statute a man is prohibited from
stopping at any port he sees fit, if he
has paid his fare to the end of the
route. Tacoma News, 11.

J. W. Exon, son of the late Captain
John Exon, of the ill-fated schooner
Carrie Ji. Lake, is in receipt of a let
ter from the teacher on the Quinaiult
Indian reservation relating to tho
bodies found by the Indians on the
beach. The Indians report that there
was but one body washed ashore, and
that the body was a large one. One
leg had been broken off at the knee,
the hair had fallen off the head and
face, but that some clothing still re
mained on the body, which tho son
claims was not the kind worn by his
father, 'the other bodies seen in the
surf were near enough to give evi
dence of being partly clad, and the
clothing was white. Captain Exon
and the others drowped wore red flan
nel drawers at the time of death. As
to the statement that the Chinaman
possessed a large sum of money there
is no foundation, as he had to borrow
money of tho mate Jamison to buy a
pair of shoes before sailing.

COLUSfBIA BAR IMPROVEMENT.
Capt.
Powell's Official Report Regarding
the Work.
The following is from the "appen
dix to the official report f the chief
of engineers, for year ending June
30th, 1835:
The projeofe of this improvement is
to build a low-tide jetty, about 44
miles long, extending from Fort Ste
vens, on the south cape, and by a
slightly convex curve on tho north
to a point about 3 miles south of
Cape Disappointment. Some lati
tude in the length of the jetty is
permitted.; also for an increase of
contraction by raising it or by build
ing a short work on on Peacock spit.
A certain construction of stone and
beton blocks resting on a foundation
course, is provided for at an estimate
of cost, without contingencies, of
$3,710,000, although mattresseses and
piling in the shoaler water are recom
mended wherever practicable and eco
nomical. A channel depth of 30 feet
at low water is intended.
The approved plan for the prose
cution of this work, whose com
mencement on the above project un
der an appropriation of $100,000 was
required by the act of July 5, 1834,
consists of hired labor operations
and purchase of materials in accord
ance with Article LXXV, army regu
lations, for performing necessary
preliminary work; building certain
accessory structures and a jetty sec
tion of 800 feet from high to low wa
ter mark, of brush, mattress, and
stone ballast to average height of
half tide.
The plan for the prosecution sub
mitted by me August 7, 1884, con
templates two methods of work, and
at the beginning a third for simul
taneous execution. The first, and
for tho greater part of. the construc
tion, is to work from land by an ele
vated pile tramway. The prelimin
ary work and accessor' structures
authorized were provided therefor.
Notice of adoption of the approved
plan was received Nov. 7. By require
ment of the secretary of war, the
detachment of infantry previously
garrisoning the post was withdrawn,
and the post and military reservation
of Fort Stevens transferred to mo
November 29, 183L
The jetty works were stopped by
receipt of a notice of n private claim
to the intended and only available
site for a landing wharf. The claim
rested upon a purchase as tide land
from the state of Oregon. The claim
was examined after a survey and re
location of adjacent boundaries of
the original reservation. Judging
the site to be an accretion to the or
iginal reservation, having been caused
by the quartermaster's wharf and its
extensions, the matter was submitted
to the proper state authorities, with
request for tho revocation of the sale;
this was declined,the sale being ac
knowledged and authority for it af
firmed. The opiuion in the premises
of the United States district attor
ney was therefore asked, who stated,
after a careful representation was
given to him of the facts and circum
stances of the case, that the claim to
the site in question was invalid nud
of no force. It is understood that
the district attorney is to take stops
to have the unjust claim vacated.
Measures for going on with the
work were promptly resumed, the
lequisite local surveys and detailed
plans hnving already been made.
Contracts were closed for building
four sea-going barges; a wharf aud '
trestle connecting it with the quar
termaster's wharf, which had wholly j
shoaled to high tide, and for fnrnish
inir stone and niles. !
The genera' arrangement is to s
hoist material by steam derricks from
barges to cars and transfer it on a 3- J
foot guage track to storing platforms I

ine tramway reals nn puts uuuia, anu
curves from the old wharf across the
low sand-point in tho immediate front
of Fort Stevens, thenco is directed
on the tangent of the jetty alignment,
the grade raising on the latter from
17 to 24 feet above mean low water.
Tho construction buildings, consist
ing ot engme-nouse, snops, store
room and office, wero located about
midway from the wharf to the jetty
end; to the building the tramway is
single track; beyond it is double
track.
Thirty pound steel rail a id part
trimmings for 2 miles of track, a 10
ton pony track locomotive, irons for
thirty stone dump cars of 5 tons ca
pacity, and of a special pattern, with
a hand car and a push-car, were or
dered, upon bids, from manufacturers
at San Francisco or in tho east. Oth
er plant and material, including u
large lot of timber, were purchased
or temporarily transferred from other
improvements.
The wharf and trestle, barges, and
first lot of piles were delivered in
April, when a construction forco was
assembled, and the pile-driving for
shore trestle and the receiving of
plant and material wero commenced
Post buildings were used as far as
needed and convenient,especialIy ones
for housing and messing employes,
tne miier oi wnicn is aone uy con
tract under bids and specifications,
outfit, fuel, and lights being furnished.
By the end of June the tramway
piling had been advanced to a point
430 feet 3n the beach below high wa
ter, or 3,010 feet from the wharf face.
Tho superstructure and rails of the
right track were laid to 130 feet of
tho last bent of piling, and the left
track to stations 31 and 28 respect
ively. The construction buildings
and one platform were completed,
and piles driven for a second platform
and for a piledriver car side-track.
One flat car and ten dump cars were
set up and trucks for twenty-eight of
the latter partly framed. Fifty cords
of brush were cut on the reservation
and bound into fascines.
All tho work has been done in a
substantial manner, with a view to
its durability and the magnitude of
the work of improvement
Pile-driving eo far ha3 been by
the water-jet; some delay was caused
by embedded drift in the low sand
point. A No. 6 Dow pump was
placed at the fort ditch, opposite the
middle of the shor tramway, and
gave efficient working until the hard
beach was reached. Tho pump was
then moved to the tramway end, and,
operated by tho locomotive engine,
it took water from a tank which was
supplied by regular working of a
smaller pump at the ditch. Tho pile
driving being tido work, the
locomotive was released for other
service during liigh tide. As the
pipe distances again become long it
is expected to drive a section at ex
treme low water, place the pump and
boiler there, andwork shorewards,
using salt water for pump-feed. For
pile driving in the surf or strong
tides the jet is not considered easy
and convenient. For such work a
car, to run on the double track, is
being constructed, for operation of a
3,600-pound steam hammer.
The mattresses are to be of fas
cines 1 foot by 18 feet, bound togeth
er with galvanized wire, and laid
from extremo high water line, 3(5 feet
wide, or projecting beyond outer
rows of piling 10 feet on north side
and six feet on the south side. The
mats are to be in succession to low
water, one, two, and three courses
thick. Beyond low water the mats
are to be built upon a grillage sus
pended from the tramway and low
ered into place.
The stone is to be of basalt, in piec
es from 300 to 0,000 pounds, averag
ing 2,000 pounds in weight.
These details of operations of
course may change, and probably
will, as the work advances and ap
propriations are adequate for extend
ed work; but the mattress and bal
last are being placed as above during
the present month of July.
It is expected with the funds on
hand, after reserving a small balance
for care of property and for bar sur
vey, to extend the -complete brush
work to make 1,500 feet in length,
and to leave the work in condition
for promptly resuming full opera
tions when funds aro provided.
Tho amount estimated for next
year, $1,330,000, is for building 3
miles of jetty by permitting advan
tageous contracts for material and
for laying tho foundation course and
part covering in advance where
depths ot water permit, following
this by working from land.
The improvement is important and
of magnitude.
Mr. P. G. Eastwick has been assist
ant engineer on this work, and Mr.
Einar Pihl, draughtsman, for tho
greater part ot tho timo.
The last complete survey of the
month was made in 1833, and plotted
last year on a scale of one two-thousandths.
A map reduced to one-half
that scale was printed for engineer
use. The maps delineating the spits
by actual soundings show a well de
fined chaunel of six feet ruling depth,
and with more than 18 feet across
the line of the jetty, and nearly half
way across Clatsop spit. This break
is the Tillamook chuto of tho bar
fishermen. It has probably not di
minished since the survey; on the
contrary, observation and change of
buoys show that the end of the spit
has moved north and grown in eleva
tion. Sand Island has been cut in
two, and Peacock spit appears as
though it would separate. i
These changes do not encourage a
natural improvement of the bar chan

EXCITEMENT UNABA.TED.,
Proof That That Physician's
Terrible Confession
Is True.
Yesterday and the day before wo
copied into our columns from the
Rochester (N. Y.) Democrat and Chron
icle, a remarkable statement, mado
by J. B. Henion, M. D., a gentleman
who is well known in this city. In
that article Dr. Ilenion recounted a
wonderful experience which befell
him, and the next day we published
from the same paper a second article,
giving an account of the excitement
in Rochester, and elsewhere, caused
by Dr. Henion'a statement It is
doubtful if any two articles were
ever published "which caused greater
commotion both among professionals
and laymen.
Since the publication of these two
articles, having been besieged with
letters of inquiry, we sent a commu
nication to Dr. Henion and also to
H. H; "Warner & Co., asking if any
additional proof could be given, and
here it is :
Gextlemek: I owe ray life and
present health wholly to the power
of Warner's Safe "Cure, which
snatched me from the very brink of
the grave. It is not surprising that
people should question the statement
I made (which is true in even' re
spect) for my recovery was as great
a marvel to myself, as to my physi
cians, and friends.

Sirs : The best proof we can give
you that the statements made by Dr.
Henion are entirely true, and would
not have been published unless
strictly so, 3 the following testimo

rating how ho hid been cured of

most in its last stages, by the use of
Warner's Safe Cure. I was referred
tointhatstatement, as having recom
mended and urged Dr. Henion to try
the remedy, which he did, and was
cured. The statement of Dr. Henion
is true, so far as it concerns myself,
and I believe it to bo true in all other
respects. Ho was a parishioner
