Several fishermen have hung up their nets and quit in despair of mak ing anything at catching salmon on the Columbia this season.- Yesterday came the same report as in the other twenty-two days of the menth: "very few fish." The twenty-five Chinamen on board the F. H. Drews had return certifi cates from Port Townsend and San Francisco, which were examined by the customs inspectors here, canceled and returned to their owners, who will surrender them upon their arriv al at Portland. A poetical newspaper man puts it this way: "Tell me, ye angelic hosts, ye messengers of love, shall swindled printers here below have no redress above?" The angels flopped their wings and said: "To you a hope is given; delinquents on a printer's book can never enter heaveii." A short run of salmon, says the Benicja, Cala., Era, began on Thurs day .last, and -for a couple of daj's fishermen were making good catcher. The Carquinez cannery reopened its fish department on Monda, in hopes of getting a good share of fish, but the run has almost ceased, fishermen averaging about four to the boat. Upon his return from a recent visit to the old home in Maine, Mr. E. L. Smith brought with him to his Astoria home some antique furniture that is valuable from the associations connected with it.

News Note rrc:i Ynritmn Eastern Points. Portsmouth, July 23 Portsmouth and Sonthsea have been thronged for dajs in the anticipation of wit nessing the spectacle of the jubilee naval review fixed for this afternoon at Spit Head. The already large crowds have been immensely aug mented this morning by the arrival of innumerable visitors from all parts of the kingdom and the continent who came by special trains from Lou don and other centers. Good posi tions for observing the display are well occupied, aud the weather could not be more favorable. There is a bright sun and a light breeze blow ing. Everybody is in holiday attire and gay dresses and splendid uni forms give the main thoroughfares a fine appearance. Special trains have brought from London the lords of the admiralty, members of the houses of lords aud commons, and represen tatives for foreign legations. Minister Phelps, representing the United States, traveled in a special saloon coach, accompanied by his wife and Mrs. LoomR In the same coach were Robert McLane, minister to France, and Jabez L. M.

Burning moss and sparks flew Hundreds of private crafts ! three-quarters of a mile and catohing of all descriptions, all haudsome ly decorated and freighted with gaily dressed people, being anchored here.

Cnrrie, superintendent of tho San Francisco mine, and Louis Demers and Sam Toleman, and told them they must leave town, accompanying them sev eral miles out on the road. The men were subjected to very rough usage, ropes being put around their necks and, according to some state ments, they being drawn up. When they were left it was with the warn ing not to return on peril of their lives. Not heeding the warning De mers and Toleman returned to town and claiming protection of officials proceeded to swear out warrants for a number of their alleged assailants. The affair created the greatest excite ment. The alleged cause of the out rage is that the men had jumped cer tain claims in the district. THE TEXAS CATTLE TRA1L.- St. Louis, July 23. A telegram from Dallas and San Antonio dis credits the report that the Texas cat tle trail is to be abandoned, and that fifty thousand head of cattle on the way to Wyoming were yesterday turned Lback at the crossing of the Arkansas river. Col. Simpson, who was reported as being the agent at the cattle growers convention at Den ver, says his company was not repre sented. Major Hillard thought the report was only intended to alarm Texas cattlemen. He said he thought that all trail cattle were finding slow sale, but that there was plenty of crass in the Indian territory ana no necessity to bring any of the herds back from other quarters. It was generally recognized that tne old days of the trail are over and the only salvation is to establish packing houses in Texas. THE FACTS IN THE GARRET SUIT. New York, July 23.

Barr, of Gray's river, and his companions had an exciting experi ence last Monday, which is not an un common one among timbermen in this vicinity at thiB season of the year. Fire from a neighboring claim caught in the dry timber and fanned by a wind from the .west came roaring ' through the forest Great spruce trees caught and ourneu as and burned as they stood, flakes and festoons of burning moss floating tlironeh the air carried the fire from top to top and the whole seotion was one mass of red flame. Around the house on Fied S. Yunderboofs place was a clearing i whereon was piled brush and limbs aud logs, ten feet high, on all udes ex cept where ran a narrow road of dirt covered punch eons, over low ground, eleven feet wide and one hundred yards long. All hands fought the lire until the water gave out and the burning masses of moss began to iu dry stumps sticking up a hundred feet fired Castle a claim, burning con siderable timber and several hundred cords of wood on which he had put in a winter's work.

Wass went to Grimes' hotel at the Seaside, and while eating supper that evening he felt a numbness in his left Bido and started from his chair. On his way to the door he fell and wns picked up and was placed in a chair. He arose and again essayed to go out when he again fell to the ground. Medical aid was summoned yester day morning from tho city nnd yes terday he was brought over to hiB rooms. He is afflicted with paralysis of the left side; is conscious of all that is going on, nnd last evening was ns easy as possible under the circumstances. A consultation of physicians was held yesterday eveniug and it was deemed advisable to telegraph for his son, Dyson D. Wass, of ban 1? rancis- co. He is in no present immediate danger, but a third paralytic stroke, which is feared would prove fatal." There was universal expression of sympathy yesterday, for Capt Wass is a man that everybody likes and all would rejoice to hear of his recovery. Bcncws Iler Youtli. Mrs. Phoebe Chesley. Peterson, Clay Co., Iowa, tells the following story, the truth of which is vouched for by the residents of the tewn: "I am 73 years old, have been troubled with kidney complaint and' lameness for many years: could not dress myself without help. Now 1 am free from all pain and soreness, and am able to do all my own housework? 1 owe my thanks to Electric Bitters for having renewed my youth, and removed completely all dis ease auo pain."

Jud Lamoure said that he had "made up his mind to shoot our damned head off our shoulders if we dared to publish comments on his notions" at Neche, but the dignity of the profession demands that we give the plain truth without regard to per sonal consequences or forever be re garded as a coward, not fit to serve the people in the capacity of an honest-news gatherer.

Indigestion is a foe to good nature. The human digestive apparatus is one of the most complicated and won derful things in existence. It i3 easily put out of order. Greasy food, tough food, sloppy food, bad cookery, mental worry, lato hours, irregular habits, aud many other things which ought not to be, have made tho American people a nation of dspoptics. But Green's August Flower has done a wonderful work in reforming this sad business and making the American people so healthy that they can enjoy their meals and be happy.

New York, July 22. Fish commis sioner E. G. Blackford said yesterday that the corner on this season's catch of Oregon salmon will have little ef fect on consnmers in this market He added: "Only an inconsiderable portion of Oregon canned salmon is sold in English markets anyhow. It mostly goe3 to interior towns, where they can't get fresh fish, and to Europe and Australia. The salmon which we eat in the east is fresh, and is caught in Canadian and Maine rivers, from which New York gets about 250,000 pounds of salmon each season, beginning lato in the spring nnd ending about tho middle of August Those people there are fish ing their rivers out They must have a closed season, in order to give the fish a chance to spawn, or there will soon be an end of that indnstrv."
