While B. Van Dusen's delivery wag
on was passing the Clatsop mill yes
terday morning, some lumber from
the chute struck the vehicle, making
a total wreck of, one of the wheels and
spilling two barrels of sugar over the
surrounding landscape.
Astoria needs cisterns for an ade
quate and proper water "supply for

to need them until it gets them. The

While sawing lumber in the Astoria
planing mill yesterday morning,
Jarnes' Holt" received a severe and
painful wound, a piece of wood about
a fflpJJangJlying from .1he block-and
striking him in the lower jaw and
breaking it. It was set yesterday
afternoon, and though Mr. Holt was
still1 suffering considerable pain, it
is thofight .that the inconvenience
will b'e only temporary.
The repairs on the Baptist church
are completed and it will be used to
day for religious services for the first
time for many months. There will be
preaohing by the pastor, Rev. M. L.
Rugg, at 11 a. m. and 7:30 p. ir. A
Sunday sohool will be organized at
the close of the morning service. All
friends of the society are cordially
invited to these services. Strangers
atid those without a church home are
especially invited.
That "the prayers of the wicked
availeth nothing" is conceded on all
hands;" but that the prayers of the
juBi.are powerful is not so generally
noticed. The driving dust on the
streets and in the stores was noticed
unfavorably yesterday by pious mer
chants, and several transposed prayers
were' briefly and forcibly uttered; in
an hour there was a smart shower
and the" dust was most effectually
laid: a clear case of cause and effect.
A big drum has been added to the
salvation army's orchestra, and the
gang grows in hideousness of dis
cord as the time goes on. If the
racket that the Salvationists kick up
is a speoimen of the celestial futurity
that awaits its devotees, some of the
crowd probably prefer spending eter
nity elsewhere. A worse prostitution
of the holy name of religion cannot
be conceived. It is not religion but
blasphemy wherein many of the
things that religion holds sacred are
bandied about and made a by-word
and a jeer.
Talking about seeing stars in the
day time all same Venus, last Friday
afternoon,. a man of a noble sweep of
brow took a reporter of this family
journal, away around the corner and
out into the middle of an unoccupied
lot yesterday and told him that away
out this side of Saddle mountain is a
deep"gdrge,"a vast slit in the earth, a
canyon,Vgrand, gloomy and peculiar,
where if you go you can see Btara in
the blue vault of heaven at any hour
of the day. The inducements are not
sufficient Wotsthematterwithfallingo
nthebackofyourheadattheskatingrink As the beautiful Galatea, in Gil
bert's classic comedy, says the Wash
ington Post, the charming actress,
Rhea, was a revelation. In the first
act, which she carried gracefully and
Eleasantly, she unfolded but little of
er power, but as the piece progressed,
she rose to, and even above, the dra
matic requirements of scene and situ
ation. The music of her voice, the
fascination of her manner, the studied
emphasis which gave point and hu
mor, and her exhibition of dramatic
power and intensity carried the audi
ence by storm. Her Galatea was all
that the most fastidious could desire
loving and tender, sacrificing nnd
sorrowful, gay and glo6my.
Everyone has heard of "the fellow
that looks like me," and the unpleas
tut circumstances attending the ex-
istence of an eidolon. Pete Olsen
seems to have a facial contour that
successfully and unfortunately re
sembles a good many other people.
The third mau that was supposed to
be him was shot a few dajs ago in
Douglas county. He was interviewed
on tho railroad track about two miles
from Wilbur, and was informed that
he was supposed to be Olsen and to
threw up his hands. The man
grabbed for his revolver, and Con.
Cox, formerly marshal of Roseburg,
shot him in the calf of the leg. Then
the stranger gave himself up, stated
hia name is Bates, and that he was
en route to Portland, where he has
relatives. Although he answers to
the printed description of Olsen, he
is undoubtedly the wrong man. He
i2 cared for by the people of Wilbur,
and will be sent to his relatives in a
few days. The way the rain came
down later in the evening would
seem "to indicate that the prayer
business was overdone.

Mr. Frank Bewley, the gentlemen
selected to read tho Declaration of
Independence on the Fourth of July,
is a fine elocutionist and will give a
splendid rendition of that famous in

that every boy and girl in Astoria
could hear that read on the Fourth.
Drowned Himself in Young's River.
Jas. A. Rowan from Young's river
reports a case of suicide there vester
day afternoon., Henry Prince, who
came here from Tillamook some time
ago, is the unfortunate man. After
coming here he fished on the river for
a week or so and being taken sick
had been for the last week in a house
on Young's river, near the brick yard,
with two other men, being delirious
the greater part of the time. Yester
day afternoon he said: "Make ma a
cup of strong green tea." When it
was made he drank it and said: "This
is a hell of a place for n man with the
measles to be.' Shortly after he
made a dash for the door and run
ning wildly down to the river, a dis
tance of about two hundred yards,
followed by the attendant, he plnnued
in the water and wading out waist
high ducked his head under and then
after a few seconds raised his head
above the surface, looked round and
snorted, then deliberately submerged
his head again and so drowned miser
ably. Prince was a native of Eng
land, aged 32 years. Tho coroner was
notified of the occurrence yesterday
afternoon.
FulalAecident at the Clatsop Mill.
At half-past one yesterday morning
Harry Sieveuson, a young man aged
22 years, employod in the Clatsop
mill, met with an acoident that termi
nated his life. He was at work tak
ing large timbers away from the big
saw and while so doing one of the
cants struck him and threw him be
tween it and another large piece of
timber. The upper part of his body
was caught and cmshed. He was
taken out as soon as possible, and
medical aid summoned, but he was
too badly hurt to admit of any assist
ance possible, and breathed his last
shortly after two o'clock. He was a
native of Sweden, had been at work
in the mill but two days, and is not
known to have any relatives or
friends in this section of J country.
The funeral will take place to-morrow.
Drowned Near "Westport.
Coroner Ross received a dispatch
from Westport yesterday afternoon,
saying that a logger named Colvin
had been drowned from a whisky
scow near that place the day before,
that his body had just been re
covered and asking him to go up
there and hold an inquest. Particu
lars of the matter are not obtainable,
but fonl play is suspected. The cor
oner will go up on the Favorite this
afternoon.

T!ie Day's Poinds ia Enrope ami tlie Eatt.
New York, June 25. Jesse Selig
man predicts that within the next
few days gold will be on the way here
from Europe, and that tight money ia
no longer in danger. Other bankers
of foreign connections give Selig
man's opinion their endorsement.
Large loans on stock collateral were
made after the market closed yebter
day as low as 5 and 6 per cent The
Times says this morning that the
contingents that are always on
parade as possessing Gould informa
tion were among the weariest citizens
this town can boast. Every one of
them was caught loaded with stocks
at top prices, and Russell Sage and
Jay Gould have slaughtered every
one of their friends, as their hangers-
on love to label themselves. Jay
Gould offers as an excuse for' his
wholesale calling of loans that he
thought stocks were cheap and he
could lend money to better advantage
in open market than he could by hav
ing it out in loans.
A PRECIOUS TRINITY.
New York, June 25. The Times
saya there are people in Wall street
who do not credit all the statements
made by the Gould crowd yesterday.
Gould and Sage called in loans by
wholesale. They did their best to
corner money. They tumbled basket
ful of stocks on the market to break;
it was of their, own desiguing at
leait so believes every one who pre
sumes to have any independent opin
ion. It was their own Western Union
and Missouri Pacific and Manhattan
they used to "slug" the market with
and if they were not going gunning
after Cyrus W. Field, every indication
seemingly worth attention is all wrong.
It has been an open seoret these
many days that Gould and Sage did
not love Field, for all their specula
tive co-partnership with him. Sage
is on record as saying that the time is
coming when "Cyrus W. Field will go
patter, patter." Field, according to
common fame, ia loaded heavily with
Manhattan.
POHSIBL COERCION.
Chicago, June 25. A special from
Winnipeg says that special orders
have been issued to looal volunteer
battalions to hold themselves in
readiness for activeservice. It is be
lieved to be a ruse on the part of the
dominion government to send volun
teers west Under a pretext of another
uprising among the Indians. It is
feared so that the government can
easily carry out its evident intention
of preventing Manitoba from build
ing the proposed road to the bounda
ry. It is said to be the government's
intention to send into Winnipeg
mounted police, in the absence of
volunteers, and so coerce the province
into submission. Many citizeiiH arc
discussing the affair, and. measures
are being devised to meet the "govern
ment and cheokmate its schemes.
BIO FIRE IN liOUISVIIiIiB.
LouisvriiiiE, June 25. The Louis
ville tobacco warehouses of Thomas
H Glover & Co., Sawyer, Wallace &
Co., E. B. Paris & Co., and an adjoin
ing boarding house, oooupying the
entire square between Main and Mar
ket, Ninth and Tenth streets, were
totally destroyed by fire this morn
ing, together with 8,500 hogsheads
of tobacco. The total loss Is es
timated at 8350,000, partially insured.
A FRESHET IN THE MERRIMAC.
Lawrence, Mass., June 25. The
most remarkable freshet known in
the Merrimac river is now in progress.
The water has risen over ten feet
since yesterday, and is still rising. It
is now within two feet of the tempo
rary bridge just built across the
river. Should it keep on an hour
longer the bridge will be swept away.
Large logs numbered by thousands
are sweeping down stream.
A BETTER FEEIiINO.
New York, June 25. Thero is no
vestige of yesterday's panic apparent
and although the market for awhile
was ragged, the roughness soon wore
away and is now generally steady, at
an advance of from 1 to 8 per cent.
Money is offered freely at 6 per cent,
by the same parties that were credit
ed with forcing up rates yesterday.
NO DEMAND FOR STOCKS.
New York, June 15. The stock
market opened tame, but is generally
firm. There are some buying, orders
from London being received. There
is a feverish undertone apparent, and
recovery from yesterday's semi-panic
is slow. Being a half-holiday there
is no demand for stocks in the loan
crowd and no rate for money.

ing from tho coming confliot between
Hungarian Episoopale and the pre
mier of its see, who is aoonsed of dis
turbing the Episcopal sees in accord
ance with the political merits of tho
candidates. It is stated in the arti
ole that the pope has notified tho pa
pal nuncio at Vienna that ho does not
object to the present occupants of the

way in which the prelates are trans
ferred for the sole purpose of increas
