A committee of river pilots leaves Portland to-day to make a survey of St Helen's, Walker's Island and Mar tin's Island bars.

Notation, voice building, musical elocution, etc., taught. The Lewiston papers say that way up on Snake river, hundreds and hundreds of miles from the sea, there ara .wheels that dip up large quanti ties of salmon. But they are no doubt, in such a condition that no one down this way could be induced to eat one of then. Postmaster Eell has received a lot of the new one-cent postage stamps. Theybear the likeness of that wise ' old printer, Ben Franklinone of the men who invented this country and when it was' young trained it up the way it should go, and now, when it is old, away it goes. Gov. Pennoyer last Monday par doned J. G. Robeson on condition that he leave the state. He will leave shortly for New Jersey, -where he has some relatives living. He was convicted here in 1882 for killing J. W. Bobo, and had served over five years of a life sentence. One of the neatest little craft seen in these parts is a ship's boat lying on the inside of the O. R. & N. dock. She has been decked over, fitted out rwith a mainsail, foresail and stay ' sail, and looks able to weather any wind that blows. She is the property of George Johnson, who contemplates a little cruise to the south. Gov. Pennoyer and Gov. Semple are both desirous of seeing the l&ws regading salmon enforced. It is a part of the reason for their presont trip to make personal observation into the matter. Gov. Pennoyer ex pressed his surprise yesterday after noon at not finding the president of the fish commission here as he ex pected. ' The sad news is received that Miss May Leinenweber died at half past nine last night. She had been seriously ill for several months, and for the last few weeks has been be tween life and death. Her sorrowing parents have the sympathy of the en tire community in their bereavement. Till the return of the A. B. Field, whioh started for Nestuoca at three yesterday afternoon to bring upher brothers, True and Freddy, the date of the funeral is undecided. Another old landmark is disappear ing in the tearing down of Capt. Soger's former blacksmith shop, southeast corner Cass and Jefferson. When The Astoeian office was in the old quarters where the Monitor sa loon stood even before that time, and where now stands the Odd Fellows' building, the old shop thatiB now be ing demolished was already an old 'building. Better and more substan tial buildings will occupy the sites of former structures that, when pasaing away call up remembrances. Unner ?8sary Misery. Probably as much misery comes from habitual constipation as from any derangement of the functions of thelwdy, and it is difficult to cure, for he reason that no one likes to take the medicines usually pre scribed. HAMBURG FIGS were preplred to obviate thiB difficulty, and they will be found pleasant to the taste of women and children. 25 cents. At all druggists. J. J. Mack & Co., proprietors, S. F.

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 which ought not to be, have made the American people a nation of dyspeptics. But Green's Aagust 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. 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. mm Card of Thanks.

Upon the arrival of those of tho delegates to the Columbia waterway convention who came down on the TelepJione yesterday, Capt J. H. D. Gray generously placed the Qen. Canby at the disposal of those of the visitors who wanted to see the gate way of the Columbia, government work, etc A large number of tho gentlemen accepted the invitation, and accom panied by some of the citizens, start ed at two o'clock. Arrived at the new government wharf which has just been completed, and whioh at present affords a depth of thirty feet, Mr. W. T. Burney, of Oregon City, Capt Powell, Mayor Trulhnger, and one or two others, went ashore to see the jetty: Gov. Pennoyer, Gov. aem ple, P. O'Keane, W. H. Brewster, Jas. Jaggy, and others, went down to II waco to see the traps. - The government nas about seventy-five men at work on the jetty and thereabouts. The jetty has been ex tended about '1,090 feet during the season; the railroad now extends a distance of 4,390 feet from tho wharf to its extreme northwestern extremity. The stone is quarried at Tongue Point, loaded on barges float ed down -to the wharf, and there loaded in an aggravatingly slow manner on tho cars and run down and dumped in place on fascines of brush. At the present rate of work the jetty will be completed about 2011. It looks ridiculous to see piece after piece of rock loaded .on a platform and when tho platform is finally full, hauled up from tho barge and swung over to the car, till that is full, and then another car, and so till there is enough to justify the locomo tive making a trip to the place of final deposit. If n few carloads a day could bo dumped, and the jettypile3 driven at a little more rapid rate, it might be that the jetty conld be finished some time this century. As it is there 13 little apparent probability of the work approximating completion in onr day and generation. This is how it looks to the writer: The gentlemen in oharge of the work are doing all they can, as much as nny others could, and prob ably more than the most of officials would do, under the circumstances, but their hands are tied. They must do the bet possible under existing conditions. More expedition is need ed, more men, more push. That re quires money; there are several hun dred million dollars surplus in the treasury, but very little of it applica ble to the Columbia jetty. Captain Powell and his subordinates had based their plans for this summer's work on "the apparent probability of an appropriation; there being no ap propriation there is. virtually, noth ing being done. Mr. P. G. Eastwick is getting in place a very fine pile-driver. It is a complicated piece of machinery, rests on a double track, has a large reel for the wire rope, and is so admirably constructed that when in a state of working completion can grasp the piles, hold them in place and drive them at a rapid rate in the most firm ly compacted sauds. The new driver is being put together as fast possible and by the loth will be ready for work. The results of the extension of the jetty seaward are most gratifying. The sand i& making to the southward and cutting away on the north side, shoaling far ahead toward Clatsnp spit, and giving favorable indications that as the jetty extends farther sea ward the channel and off the oar will demonstrate improvement already afforded by the- work that has been done. The Gen. Canby returned at six o'clock with those of' Ihe party that had gone farther toward the mouth of the river. The two governors and the other members of the party had an excellent opportunity to see the traps and other devices for catching fish. I Consumption Incurable? Read the follewing: Mr. C. II.
