The Contra Costa, Cal., Gazette
says a couple of catfish recently
caught by Charles Perry, superin
tendent of Mr.Blaok's salmon can
nery, at Martinez, were full of salmon
spawn and minnows. This, says the
Gazette, ought to settle the question
whether or not the introduction of
cattish into our waters was a serious
blow at the salmon industry. The
bay. rivers and sloughs are now filled
with catfish, and they undoubtedly
feed upon salmon tpawu and newly
hatched salmon.
In the justice court yesterday there
were four several demands for war
rants in four cases of alleged assault
and battery. Justice Cleveland con
sidered that the three first, for the
I first three) were not of sufficient im-
portancp to set in motion tlie expens-
ive machinery of the law. but com
plied with the request in the fourth
instance and issued a warrant If he
were to entertain half the complaints
that are made on every little trivial
provocation he would have to appoint
three deputies.
Mr. French, ex-collector of customs
at Sitka, states that since the discov
ery of gold in Alaska the influx of
miners and others into that region
has been very great, and at present
their number is largely augmented by
tourists desirous of seeing the grand
scenery of our northern possessions.
The great drawback to Alaska has
been the fact that although there is
weekly steamer service, the mails are
sent only once a month. Public
meetings have been held in Sitka and
requests have been made to the gov
ernment for an increased mail serv
ice, and in answer to these requests
the postoffice department has decided
that for the ensuing three months
the mails shall be forwarded every
fourteen days. For the monthly
service the government pays 89,000
per annum, and the officials of the
Paoific Coast Steamship company
state that a weekly service could be
had for a small advance on that
amount.
Wafl-el-Tvard's Ledum
Those who heard the lecture at
Liberty Hall last night had a treat.
The hall was -well filled, but there
should have been more there, for
such as he is not heard or seen every
day in Astoria. He is interesting, in
structing, edifying and amusing.
Humorous without undue levity, an
encyclopaedia of facte, n man of fine
presence, a most picturesque figure,
with fact, romance, tradition, poetry
and all tho arts of the accomplished
orator at his commaud, he stands be
fore his audience and makes hours
seem like moments as he tells of the
manners and customs of the ancient
people of Palestine, who at tho pres
ent day follow in tho footsteps of
their fathers and comport their daily
live3 as did their kingly ancestors
five thousand years ago. "
To the interest of his theme he
lends ttie beauty of his voice and
whether it is in tones of pathos ho
portrays the suffering and expression
of his people or in lighter vein speaks
humorously of episodes in daily life
he holds his audience in closest atten
tion. He is a wonderful man, and
deserves a higher meed of praise than
this paper usually accords anything
in the amusement line.
To-night he appears again in "A
pilgrimage to Mecca with the Moham
medans." Famous Women.
Madame Trebelli, tho greatest of
living contraltos who has traveled

delightful mildness of our climate,

original of which can be seen on de

NEWS ITEMS FEOH PABIS.
Pabis, July 14, 2 p. m. Thus far
the fall of the Bastile has been com
memorated quietly. The demonstra
tion made at the statue of Strasburg
this morning was of an entirely
peaceful nature. Members of the pa
triotic league and other associations
with banners and trumpets marched
past the statue and deposited crowns
upon the colossal memorial. As this
was done there were a few cries from
the procession of "Vive la France,"
"Vive la republique," and "Vive Bou
langer," but there were no attempts
at disorder.
Paris, July 14. In the trial of
Franzi yesterday for the murder of
Mme. Begault, her maid and maid's
child, no extenuating circumstances
were shown. The prisoner declared
he was innocent and kept a bold face
on to the end. It is expeoted he will
appeal, but the case against him is
terribly strong. The scene in the
court room at the close of the trial
was very touching, and many ladies
stood on the benches to get a glimpse
of the prisoner.
STBOXO AXTI'GERMAN FEBLTNU.
Berlix, July 14. A German rehi
dent of the Caudry department of
Nord France writes to the Mannheim
Journal that the anti-German feeling
in Caudry is terrible, and that he and
other Germans had narrowly esoaped
being killed. He and his country
men were insulted in the streets, and
it was hardly safe to venture out.
The Kreuz Zeituny, referring to the
letter, says it is intolerable that
Germans should have to endure it.
France must be made to understand
that there is "thus far and no
farther in the matter. The Beutscli

"You have heard the expression
'the naked truth.' and perhaps you do
not know how it originated." said
Jttev. aam Jones in nis ted tock ser
mon recently. "x will tea yeu:
Unce upon a time Truth and Error
went in bathing together. Error
came out first, put on Truth's clothes
and ran away. And Error ha3 been
trying to wear the same clothes ever
since. When Truth came out of the
water the only clothes it could find
to put on was that of Error. 'Before
I will wear such garments as those,'
said Truth, 'I will go naked all my
life.' Truth has kept its word, and
goes through the world naked, with

Dyspepsia is dreadful. Disordered
liver is misery. Indigestion is a foe
to good nature.
The human digestive apparatus is
one of the most complicated and won
derful things in existence. It is easily
put out of order.
Greasy food, tough food, sloppy
food, bad cookery, mental worry, late
hours, irregular habits, and many
other things whioh onght not to be,
havo made the American people a
nation of dyspeptics.
But Green's August Flower has
done a wonderful work in reforming
this sad business and making the
American people so healthy that they

Remember: No happiness without
health. But Green's August Flower
brings health and happiness to the
dyspeptic. Ask your druggist for a
bottle. Seventy-five cents.
