State senator L. T. Barin, chairman
of the -present legislative visiting
committee, is a man of considerable
experience, and has given close and
long continued observation to salmon.
He can readily distinguish the male
and female, and gives it as his opin
ion that in the salmon entering the
river the proportion as to sex is
three males to one female, which, if
so, wonld indioate that the salmon of
the Columbia take little stock in the
Mormon doctrine. The senator does
not place implicit belief in the the
ory that all salmon entering the
river to spawn, die and do not return,
a skepticism which is shared by
thousands of dwellers along the
banks of the Columbia.
The city, as usual, is filled with
peddlers, each with some little sum
mer game. Astoria is continually
drained of ready money by these
folks. They are all right and not to
be decried; that is their business and
it is legitimate, but the point is, for
Astorians to buy of Astoria mer
chants. If you want clothing, shoes,
groceries, books, apparel, eta, mer
chandise of any kind, you can find it
on the shelves or in the showcases of
ABtoria business men. If you can't,
a request will ninoty-nine times out
of a hundred secure it next time it is
called for. It is poor business for
Astorians to- neglect Astoria mer
chants and send away good money
that might as well be spent right
here in town.

The Philharmonic Clnb.
This company of musical artists
will appear at Bobs' opera house next
Monday evening. Their reputation
assures Astoriana of a fine musical
treat. Here is what the New York
Herald says of them:
"The club is composed of a sextett
of musicians who have obtained
special prominence as soloists in the
best musical circles; and, as a result,
their services afford a most delightful
evening to those who can appreciate a
high class of chamber musio inter
preted by these well known player.
There was at no time the least varia
tion of one common idea there was
no. lack of consistency or want .of
delicacy in the phrasing in a single
instrument; all seemed guided by but
one mind, and from first to last it
promised to be as it was, a triumph
ant conclusion to the programme.
"The instrumental portion of the
concert concluded by the Beethoven
Sextett in E flat (opus 20), which was
marvelously well played. The senti
ment of the great master seemed to
be infused into all the playere, and
the noble composition was given with
an earnestness that lent a glow to the
entire progJamme, and fittingly
brought the club's delightful season
to a most creditable conclusion.

The New York Sun has been inter
viewing some of thfiJeading wholesale
grocers on the subBx American sar
dines, with the following result, that
"there are very few imported sardines
sold in the states, that nine-tenths
of those put upon the market are
packed in Maine and that not one
customer in a thousand can tell the
difference." It is difficult to recon
cile this statement with the figures
as to the exportation of sardines from
Italy to this country given in the
consular reports. Bordeaux alone
Bends us some 85,000 oases yearly. We
quote the following history of the
Maine business:
"There are in Eastport alone over
twenty places where they manufacture
sardines and there are a dozen-others
in Jonesport, Lubec and other towns.
The business began in 1876 and was
started by some New Yorkers who
went to Eastport and at first did
quite a business in packing small
herring in peculiar looking little
wooden kegs in a pickle of spices.
These herring were placed" in the
market as Bussian herring, and I can
remember when this cheap and fraud
ulent fish was on the bills of fare of
the swell restaurants of New York as
the highest priced relish they served.
"These enterprising New Yorkers
made money fast in their Maine ven
ture, but they believed there was
more still in modeling the herring
upon French sardines, although some
shrewd Yankees had experimented
extensively and spent much money
in trying to make the venture prac
tical some years before. It had been
found easy to cook the little fish,
pack them in olive oil, in imitation
sardine cans, and give them the ap
pearance of genuine imported sar
dines. But when they came to be
eaten the fraud was palpable. The
rich spicy flavor .of the French sar
dine was not there, but only the un
mistakable taste of the nativo herring.
The Yankees could not discover any
means by which the herring taste
c jnld be eradicated and the sardine
business was pronounced a failure,
but our smart New Yorkers, after a
few experiments, hit upon a mixture
of oils and spicesfor a paoking sauce,
which made a sardine of a herring in
a twinkling, and a gigantic industry
has sprung from the simple dis
cover'. Not only are sardines made
from common herring now, but from
sea trout, a fish oalled a moranee, and
several other finny species, all herring
of lesser or greater growth."

Four Men Drowned at Tillamook.
From the Rosie Olsen, lying at
Hume's wharf, is learned tidings of a
dreadful accident at Tillamook last
Sunday by which four men lost their
lives. It appears that a man named
Albert Briggs, who runs a sloop from
Lincoln to Hobsonville and Garibaldi,
started from the former place carry
ing five passengers. When off Hob
sonville a flaw struck the boat and
she capsized and sunk. The owner
of the boat and a boy named Wood
ruff got on the ilats and were saved
from the cannery, the other -four, un
fortunate men were drowned. Three
of them were new arrivals from Penn
sylvania and had only got there the
day before. Their names couldn't be
learned. The body of one was found
next day; in his pockets were 3,350
in gold and notes. An inquest was
held by a jury of which ex-governor
Thayer was foreman, and a verdict re
turned of accidental drowning. The
fourth man was from the Nestuccn.
Efforts were making when the 7?oe
Olsen left to find the other bodies.

That is to say, your lungs. Also

wonderful machinery it is. Not only
the larger air-passages, but the thous

When these are clogged and choked
with matter which ought not to be
there, your lungs cannot half do their
work. And what they do, they can
not do well.
Call it cold, cough, croup, pneu

All ought to be got rid of. There is
