The Alaskan and Telephone r-bro'ght down a good many passen gers yesterday, fleeing from the heat of the interior. The Times-Mountaineer says the fish wheels in the vicinity of 'Ihe Dalles Lave stopped operations for the season. That's good. Tom Merry says that Josie Mans fleldvon whose account Stokes killed JimFisk in New York in January, 1872, was in Portland last week. A New York dispatch says salmon ia quoted in that city at $1.90. A few thousand cases at that figure wouldn't be a.bad thing to have. Prof. A. L.Francis is in the city. Jle is stopping at Mrs. E. C.

Eowe, a resident of Seaside, died last Monday, the Sth inst. De ceased was in the 51st year of his age. The" cause of his death was general debility. The funeral will take place from his late residence to-day. An east wind yesterday morning blew westward the smoke from the heated interior and enveloped all out doors, the landscape, waterscape, etc"., in a blue haze. Later the wind changed to the west, cooling and re freshing the air. The Cumbrian, which came in last Sunday, started up stream, hut -' came to grief at Walker's Island, by reason of her draft. She was stuck when the AlasTcan passed down yes terday afternoon. The Merom will dock this morning and lighter to 18 feet when she expectB to squeeze through.

T-- A'nuniber'of deep water vessels have ben purohased lately by San Franokco capitalists and will be placed, on the coast coal trade. The ship Harry Morse ha3 been bought by L.E. "White, for S25.000, and she will join Hanester, John A. Briggs, Glory of the Seas, 'Levi O. Burgess, William H. Macy, and others. That "it is better to be born lucky than rich" is well exemplified in the ease of William Allen, of the Parker - house. In the past eighteen months, in the matter of winning at raffles, he has won a music box, a sewing ma chine, a $150 shotgun and a Winches ter rifle. The last was won last night at Gravea' saloen: Tom Linville cap tared a split bamboo fishing rod on a low throw. It is sometimes quite amusing, says the Tacoma Ledger, to see the great number of Indian canoe oars and paddles which tourists bring from Alaska as old Indian relics. An old Alaska pioneer says: "The most of those caddies are made and nainted - by Chinamen in San Francisco, shipped to Alaska points and sold as Indian relics, brought down to Ta coma on the steamers and carried thousands of miles away." TMfloeofthe A.O.TJ. W., was at half mast yesterday in respect to the memory of one of the- charter mem " 'bers of Seaside Lodge No. 12 Dr. Jas. M. Dixon, who died last Monday ih San Francisco.

His death took place at the Presidio, and was occasioned by heart disease. Deceased was in the 50th yeafof hisage. 1'Oapt. Heard of the British ship -Duchess of Argyle tells a San Fran cisco reporter that not long ago, in Australian waters, his crew captured an albatross, around whose neck was fastened a small brass pocket com . . pass, secured by three strands of cop per wire. The box was very much oxidized, and was only opened with . . .dffieulty: Inside a paper was found, on which, in faded ink, was written: "Caught May 2, 1842, in latitude 38 6.' south, 40 14' west, by American .ship 'Columbus." Capt Heard, after 4xing a plate around the bird's neck, with the ship's name, the position and -date of its recapture, and the account , of. its original captors, let it go free. Attention Co.

Telegrams re ceived this morning from central points throughout 7.",000 square miles of the drought stricken northwestern country show that the fenfnl sun scorching of all vegetation continues unmitigated and not a drop of rain has fallen except eight one-huu-drpdths of an inch at Dps Moines. Local observations in various dis tricts give very little hope of a break iu the weather within the coming twenty-four hours. A COURAGEOUS MAN. ILviiirAX, Aug. 9. Admiral Luce, of the U. S.

A COURAGEOUS DEED. Resrne of a Drowning Boy, Ycstpnlny. Yesterday afternoon the carriers of the Oregonian and News were on Wilson & Fisher's dock awaiting the arrival of the Telephone, and shortly before she came in, one of the boys, Willie Young, the thirteen-year old son of Mr. Max Young, of Alder brook, slipped and fell off the edge of the dock into twenty feet of water. A rush was made for the spot by sev eral who saw the boy fall, or heard the splash, and hastened to the rescue of the boy, who sunk, then rose, and was sinking the second time. One of the first to reach the spot was E. Inglesdad, of the TJ. S. steamer Mc Arthnr. He doffed his coat, sprang into the water and saved the boy from drowninL'. a hundred ready hands be ing extended to grasp the lad aud his rescuer as they approached the dock. Mr. Inglesdad deserves credit for his promptitude and bravery. In a few minutes the Telephone landed at her accustomed place and shortly afterward the boy was busy distributing Oregonians around the city. m - In Brief, Anil to the Point 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, aud many other things which ought not to be, have 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 can enjoy their meals and be happy.
