The Western Amateur band orches tra furnished pleasing music at the opera house last evening. Their fine new piano purchased of Kohler & Chase, arrived just in time for their initial appearance, and they were a prominent and pleasing feature of the entertainment.

The directors having every faith in the warm current of the north Pacific have rigged up two tanks, and the gentle patter of the rain upon the roofnow betokens that the wants of the juveniles in the way of water will be supplied. It is a3 hard to run a school without water ns it is a print ing oflice. "Wet or dry, summer or winter, Maj or November, The Astobian's circu lation steadily increases. In the flush times of '83 the circulation went up with a bound, and in these busy days of '87 we print and circulate more papers than at any time in the past. This applied to the "Weekly as well as Tug Daily Astobiax. During the present year the circulation of the U eekly. (a large paper that city readers rarely see,) increased 211. As for the Daily, whether they agree with it or not, everybody reads it to see what is going on in the city, state and nation. What's the matter with the (Joi trini Last summer that vessel started up here from San Francisco and when nearly to the bar the pro pellor dropped ofT and she had to put back under sail, and now again she started, this time ith three government officials on board to look after our important life saving station's interests, and agaiu, when near the bar, sho broko her shaft, and now, like a wounded bird, is slowly beating her way back to San Fran cisco under sail against southerly gales.

Commenting yes terday on the freight rate of 37s Gd to Liverpool, he said that that is ex actly the freight rale from Liverpool to London, but at even that figure the traffic does not pay ory large dividends on account of the enor mous expense of keeping up the road. TnE Astoriax has about five tons of paper, etc, on the way from Chicago, on which it is paying 17.00 a ton freight, which compared with a rale of 9.12 between Liverpool and Lon don, looks very reasonable.

There was a lively time last Sunday at 10:30 a. m., in front of the Parker House. Tho Salvation army was in full swing and had just plucked a brand from tho burning in the shape of a sailor, who was chuck full of religion, when Messrs. Kelly and Sul livan, agents for tho deportation of I recalcitrant seamen, appeared. ai4 forcibly urged the sailor man to :ip a3 per agreement. This he dccl:i. 1 to do, and shielded himself behi-ui the skirts of an aged female member of the gang, who loudly shrieked that she had come across the plains iu '49 and it was a shame and an outrage that these bad, bad men were trying to accomplish, so it was. The bad men then asked the sailor to at least pay his board bill at the caravansary that ho had honored with his patron age, which he declined to do. He'd got religion, and wasn't going to be bothered by such a little fool thing as an unpaid board bill: not he: ho'd got religion, and they might depart to Hades. Then there was a grand walk around; the drum, the tambourine, the heavy weight, the "special,' the sailor, and Kelly and Sullivan, the fe males shrieking and tho men "sing ing," and in the middlo of the jubilee the sailor skipped off, and the ship is still short one man.

Lois of the British Ship "Dnchtss or Argjle'' The ship Indiana, Captain Morri son, arrived here Saturday, says the Port Townsend correspondent Jour nal of Commerce, with the captain and crew of the ill-fated British ship Duchas of Anjyle, wrecked on tho coast of Vancouver, opposite Cape Flattery. Tiie lonowmg is tne cap tain's repert: We sailed from San Francisco, October 13th, bound to Burrard inlet, under charter to load lumber for Melbourne. Had light winds up the coast. Oct. 2Sth at 8 a. 3i. made Capo Flattery distant about 25 miles. Next day tug boat Pioneer came along side, and taking our haw ser proceeded to tow us, but owing to the head seas found she could make no headway and let go of our hawser. "We were then some 8 or 9 miles from the cape, weather foggy and thick. At midnight experienced a mow irom tne eastward, weather clearing; lost Cape Flatten- light bearing southeast by south. November 1st The weather being thick at 4 p. m. tho fog raised and we made Capo Flattery bear ing southeast by south, distant thiee miles. With light airs from the east ward, we managed that night to work tho vessel up the straits, but it shut in thick agaiu, and we must have drifted out. We were iu company with a large ileet of vessels all evi dently inward bound. Next day, Wednesday, Nov. 2nd, wo managed to work into the straits again. When tho fog raised in tho afternoon we saw Neah bay. We stood iu th'e north ward. My vessel was foul, she would not stav, and we wero always obliged to wear her. At 10 p. m. made Ta toosh Light, distant about G miles. Wore ship and stood to the north ward and westward; wore again at midnight, and again at 3 A. ir. On Thursday Nov. 3rd at 5:15 a. h. weather very thick, and calm, ship struck forward on a rock. There was considerable of a swell running. The yards and sails were backed and she came off. I sent the carpenter down to see if sho was making water; he re ported every thing all right below. It was not long before the ship touched bottom again, this time on her broad side, where she remained pounding with every sea that came in. The iron plates could bo heard tearing from her side. It was not long before the water was up to the main deck. Finding that there was nothing we could do without assistance, we lowered our boats and abandoned the ship, pull ing for Sau Juan harbor, a distance of about G miles, to the eastward. We remained there all next day. On Fridav we found the bows of the ves sel nearly under water, and the stern on the rocks. We gathered what we couldof clothing and other eflects,oni chronometers and a few of the instru ments pt navigation, and seeing a ship close by we pulled for her. The ship hove to and at noon we were all on hoard what proved to bo the American ship Indiana from San Fraucisco bound to Port Townsend. The Duchess of Annjle is on tho rocks just between Bonila Point and Port ban Juan." In Hrief, anil to The Point. Dyspepsia is dreadful. Disordered liver is misery. Indigestion is a foe to good nature. I he human digestive apparatus is one of the most complicated and wonderful thiugs m existence. It is . .'..-.ily put out of order. Greasy food, lough food, sloppy food, bad cookery, mental worry, late hours, irregular habits, and nany other things which ought not to be, have made the American people a na tion 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 bo happy. Bemember: No happiness without health. But Green's August Flower brings health and happiness to the dyspeptic. Ask your druggist for a bottle. Seventy-five cent?. His;h Boat at Coos Bay.
