In the suit of the commonwealth against Silas M.

There was an evening session of the circuit court last evening in which the fish case3 now on the docket wore argued.. Counsel for the de fense took the ground, first, that the court had no jurisdiction over Wash ington territory waters; that catchers of fish in those waters were not amenable in an Oregon court; sec ond that the law under which the in dictments were found is unconstitu tional being local in its application. The stato argued the opposite of each of these propositions. At the close of the arguments the court took the matter under advisement A Surprise Parly. Last evening was the occasion of a pleasant little surprise party compli mentary to Mrs. C. Brown, at the res idence of Mrs. S. Elmore, prior to her departure for California. After supper Rev. O. B.

The "Wrecked Steamship Tacoma". A correspondent of the Oregonian, who signs himself "D.", writes from Drain, Oregon, making inquiries as to the ownership, etc., ot the wrecked steamship Tacoma, which sailed from Tacoma January, '84 loaded with Carbon Hill coal, and bound for San Franoisco, but which ran ashore about five mile3 north of the Ump qua river. "D." writes that the ves sel is not more than a quarter of a mile from shore, aud "stands up out of the water like a house at low tide;" that Bhe can be easily reached in small boats when the water is smooth; that no one has been near the steam er since her crew left her; also, "that it is the opinion of many well in formed men that her machinery and possibly the vessel might bo saved." The letter closes by saying: "It seems strange that her owners have not looked after her." The vessel was owned by the Southern Pacific JKailroad company and was built to run between Tacoma and San Fran cisco. The Verdict Unanimous. W. D. Suit, Druggist. Bippus, IniL, testifies: "I can recommend Electric Bitters as the very best remedy. Every bottle sold lias given relief in every case.

Abraham Hare, druggist, BellviUe, Ohio, affirms: "The best selling medi cine I have ever handled in my 20 years' experience, is Electric Bitters.''
