For the 24 hours from seven Thurs day evening to seven Friday evening, the rainfall was 2.7 inches. San Franciscans are paying $10 a ton for Wellington coal at the ship. It isn't quite that bad here yet. The victory for the Volunteer yes terday makes a third race unneces sary. Hurrah. for the Volunteer! Leaky roofs were not unusual yes terday, A few showers will swell the shingles and stop that annoyance. Steam was up on the tug Wizard yesterday, and to-day she goes on the bar service in conjunction with the Donald. There will be no preaching morn ing or evening in the Baptist church to morrow. Sunday school at the usual hour. The Weekly Astorianv with a supplement: all the news of the week and the cream of The Daily, is issued this morning.

Danielson wants information as to the whereabouts of Emanuel Thronsen, fromNaxo Bornholm, Den mark. He will learn of something to his advantage by calling on him.. The R. R.

Hustler and wife aDd M. L. Freeland and wife, opposite Ohas.

The Northwestern Lumberman of the 24th ult, has an ifidvertisement addressed to lumber manufacturers, setting forth the timber advantages of the lower Columbia, and a synop sis of a recent article on the forest wealth of this vicinity. The sunshine, buggy rides, moon light walks, etc., were rudely inter rupted yesterday by a southwester that came whistling over the hill with a driving rain that wet everything down and set folks looking for their rubbers and waterproofp. Now that the railroad subsidy fund is within $25,000 of the limit, and the amount required is practically in sured, the next step will be to get an engineer up here to go over the route. There are no flies on this thing and every move Bhould be a jump and a bound. The sooner the quicker. The Gleaner, with Messrs. Surpre nant and Davis aboard, started yes terday for John Day's to bring down the dead body of Wm. Lowden. When off Tongue Point two fans in the propeller broke and she was obliged to return.

Davis was in from John D.iv'r yesterday on a sad errand. About three weeks ago an old gentleman named Wm. Lowden, an. uncle of Robt. Lowden, moved there from the provinces, and last Thursday evening at fiveVclock was found dead in his oabin. The cause of his death was heart disease. He was in the 70th year of his age. The funeral will be at Clatsop, to-morrow. An amusing typographical blunder was perpetrated in Carson, Nev., re centL Rev. Tan Deventer sent to the TribunehiB theme for th following Sunday's discourse, "Receipt for the Care of Hoodlumism." This appeared in print as "Receipt for the Cure of Rheumatism," and it had the effect of crowding the churoh with people many of whom had not attended di vine worship for a quarter of a centu ry, and a considerable number of whom were stiffened more or less with rheumatism. The Saginaw Lumber company have a barcre. the Wahnaditae. that they carry some lumber on from l)u- luth and other points.

When they got to Tonawanda they unloaded the 2,409,800 feet in one working day. The barge is 275 feet long and five feet beam. The lumber is piled 22 feet high. She draws 11 feet of water. She cost $30,000. CRITICISM OF THE ORDINANCE. Astoria, Sept. 30, 1887. Editor Asteriak: Relative to the proposed street-car franchise ordinance published in The Astoriak of thi3 morning, please, allow me to make this criticism, namely: No franchise of that character should be granted by the city of Astoria at the present stage of its wealth and population for such a long term as fifty j-ears, nor for so small a gratuity, or license fee, as twenty-five dollars a year for each car used on the road. Nor should snch franchise be graut- ed at all until the present effort at get ting a "railroad" from the interior of the state is completed and success gained. Let us know first what street or streets the railroad may need. Nor should the fare be fixed or limited at figures that noobdy can meet in mak ing change. When the the fare is fixed, let it be 3. 4. 5. 6 or 8 or 10 rcents from Smith's Point to Tongue Point (when those points shall be m the city), or at 2, 3, 4 or 5 cents per mile through the city. The construction of the proposed ordinance is very loose all through, not sufficiently or explicitly guarding the rights of the city, or of the public who may hereafter use the road, or ride over it Astoriak.

Probably as muoh misery comes from habitual constipation as from any derangement of the functions of the body, and It is difficult to cure, for the reason that no one likes to take the medicines usually prescribad.

Tlic America Cup Remains ou this Side. New York, Sept. 30. The yacht Volunteer won the race. She led the Scotchman over the entire course and beat the Thistle in ten minutes. The victory was celebrated by the booming of cannons, the ringing of bells and whistling. A CHIKAMAK HANGED. San Fiuncisco, Sept. 30. Le Garo Bo was hanged to-day in the jail yard. Father Galliano arrived at the jail soon after 11 o'clock and admin istered consolation to the condemned prisoner. As first the bell struck 12 the prisoner was taken from his cell to the scaffold. He walked with a firm step and showed no sign of weakness. He spoke a few words from the scaffold and protested his innocence to the last. The priest of fered a short prayer and adminis tered the sacrament after which the trap sprung at precisely 12:05. His neck was broken by the fall and not a limb quivered. COMMANDER G. A. B. St. Louis, Sept. 30. Judge Race, of Minnesota, was to-day elected commander-in-chief of the G. A. R. He was chosen on tho first ballot by a majority of 24. CLOSING HOURS. St. Louis, Sept. 30. This after noon the evacuation of tho city by the rank and file of the G. A. R. was complete except in the case of Cali fornia. They are still quartered in the armory near the store of delicious fruits which on Saturday afternoon are to be given away to the public. The main interest centered in the election of commander. Gen. SIo cum, who has been so prominently mentioned for "the office, was in the hall, mingling with the delegates. Major Warner, also a candidate, was making no personal effort, but leav ing the canvas to his friends. The committee on resolutions reported baok a resolution offered by Vander vort in regard to the veto of the de pendent pension bill and pension to Mrs. Logan. The committee recom mended the adoption of the part that referred to Mrs. Logan's pension, and the rejection of the balance. PORTLAND ITEMS. Portland, Sept. 30. Heavy rains have prevailed to-day. The police have made 146 an cats during the month of September. Wm. Dillon has engaged Judge Page for his counsel. The defendant is allowed until Monday to plead. on his travels. Washington, Sept. 30. President Cleveland and party and wife left here to-day on their tour. The pres idential train reached Baltimore one hour and ten minutes after leaving Washington. The announcement that the party would arrive attracted about one thousand persons, fully one-half of "whom were ladies. "The signal for departure was given and the train pulled out. There was no demonstra tion by the people assembled at the station. Don't Let that cold of yours run on. You think it is a light thing. 13ut it may run into catarrh. Or into pneumo nia. Or consumption. Catarrh is disgusting. Pneumonia is dangerous. Consumption is death itself. The breathing apparatus must be kept healthy and clear of all obstruc tions and offensive matter. Other wise there is trouble ahead. All tho diseases of these parts, head, nose, throat, bronchial tubes and lungs can be delightfully and entirely cured by the use of Bosohee's German Syrup. If you don't know this al ready, there are thousands and thou sands of people who can tell you. They have been cured by it, and "know how it is themselves." Bottle only 75 cent3. Ask any druggist. Fonr FoMrof the Oyster. Four bitter enemies wage war on the oyster and eat him up in his bed. The greatest of all hi3 foes is the "five-finger" or Btar fish. The latter goes up to a yonng oyster, encircles it with his five fingers until it breaks off a piece of shell, thus preventing the oyster from keeping his shop closed during tho star fish's business hours. Now the oyster is eatcu at Mr. Five Finger's leisure. The drum fish dotes on oysters and pays not the slightest attention to the signs, "No trespassing on these grounds." The driller is a little worm that pierces the shell in order to get better ac quainted with the oyster on the in side. He goes through nn oyster shell as quickly as a moth would through a carpet Hard-shell crabs loaf around an oyster-bed seeking what they may devour. The crab's hard claws break off a piece of the rim of an oyster's shell, and in a mo ment the oysterhas gone crabbing.
