The schooner J. Q. North is in
from San Francisco. On the first
day out, one of the crew, name un
known, afflicted with delirium tre
mens, sprang overboard and was
drowned.
The man who died suddenly at
Olympia last Wednesday morning
was named John Thompsen: he was a
Russian Finn, eingle,aged 34: he fished
for the Cutting Packing company
last summer.
Mysteriously disappeared from her
home on upper Dry Creek, Oct 10,
1887, Rosabelle North, aged 14 years,
dark hair, hazel eyes and rather slen
der for one of her age. Information
concerning her whereabouts will be
thankfully received by L. B. North,
at Dixie, Walla Walla county, W. T.
Salmon reports from the north are
to the effect that the pack on the
Stickeen has been the largest ever
put up. The salt-curing establish
ment on Smith's inlet has been dis
continued, owing to trouble with the
Indians. On the Skeena a fair amount
of salmon has been caught, and two
or three new canneries are in conrse
of erection.
The new postage stamps are slight
ly different from those heretofore in
use. The 2-cent stamp is green; the
3-cent is vermilion; the 4-Sent car
mine instead of green. The 5-cent
has been changed from chocolate
brown to blue, and has the head of
Grant upon it instead of that of Gar
field; the 30-cent stamp is brown, and
the 90-cent is purple instead of car
mine. The tunnel in which final opera
tions on the California & Oregon
railroad are being conducted is in the
Siskiyou range, just inside the Ore
gon boundary. It is one of many un
derground cavities of the same na
ture in wjiich the railroad buries it
self as it runs north. Jn fact, as a
resident of Shasta recently remarked,
"There is nearly as much of the rail
road in the bowels of the earth up
our way as there is on top of the
ground."

Give Them a Chance!
That is to say, your lungs. Also all
your breathing machinerj'. Very won
derful machinery it is. Not only the
larger air-passages, but the thousands
of little tubes and cavities leading
from them.
"When these are clogged and choked
with matter which ought not to be
there, your lungs cannot hairdo their
work. And "what they do they can
not do well.
Call it cold, cough, croup, pneumo
nia, catarrh, consumption or any of
the family of throat and nose and
head and lung obstructions, all are
bad. All ought to be got rid of. There
is just one sure way to get rid of
them. That is to take Boschee's
German Syrup, which any druggist
will sell yon at 75 cents a bottle.
Even if everything else has failed
you, you may depend upon thh for
certain.

Of rain and some sore throats;

THE CLACKAMAS HATCHERY.
Proposed Action Of The Government.
Washington", Oct. 2L The sundry
civil appropriation bill passed at the
last session of congress containing a
proposition for the establishment of a
salmon hatchery in Oregon, and for
this purpose $10,000 was placed at the
disposal of the fish commissioner.
Attached to the appropriation is a
proviso that it shall not be expended
until the state of Oregon first takes
the necessary steps to protect and
prevent extinction of salmon that re
sort to its rivers, it being claimed
that in this particular Oregon has
been remiss, and it was insisted that
before coming to congress for relief
the state should exert its power to
prevent wanton destruction of the
fish product of the Columbia and oth
er rivers in that state.
Oregon has, in the meantime,
moved in tho matter, and the require
ments of the proviso have beencom
plied with. This being the case, sen
ator Dolph has placed himself in.com
munication with the fish commission
er, urging that the appropriation -be
now expended. This the commission
er has promised to do.
At the outset this officer, however,
finds himself faced by an obstacle
that may delay this action. The point
selected by the fish commissioner for
tho hatchery is the month of the
Clackamas river, at which point the
state is about to establish a hatcher.
This location is deemed the most eli
gible, as it affords many advantages
not found elsewhere, and the govern
ment is naturally very anxious to se
cure this site. Senator Dolph has
promised to exert himself to secure
such concessions from the state as
will relieve the fish commissioner
from his present embarrassment, nnd
assurances are given that the hatch
ery will be established with as little
delay as possible, it being presumed
that the Oregon authorities will move
promptly in the premises.
