The Young's river pulp mill will be gin operations to-morrow, it is learned, the machinery recently purchased and Bhipped thereto having been placed. Spencer N. Johnston is busy getting out a supply of pulp wood for the establishment. As time passes, the passengers on -the Telephone last Sunday seem to be more impressed with their wonder ful good luck and Capt. Scott's ad mirable prespnee of mind, which saved them on the only chance in ten thousand from horrible death. Don't forget the Thanksgiving din ner by tholadiesof the Congregational church in tho Y. M. C. A. gymnasium from 1250 to 4 p. h., and supper from 6 to 8 p. zl Friends contributing supplies are requested to send them as early as possible. Dinner 50 cents and supper 25 cents.

Necessary work to pnt the station in operating condition will be begun as soon as the necessary formalities will allow. At half past two thi3 morning dark and heavy clouds drifted in with a southwesterly breeze, thestars that j shone so brightly and the frost that bristled and sparkled in tho fore part of tho evening were not to be seen, and n gentle rain set all tho caves dripping. Half an hour later every thing outside was white with snow. I Beginning December 1st, tho West- Iorn Union Telegraph cjmpany will make a sweepiug reduction m rates of messages.

The book was printed by Henry Galbreath. and is dated-4Dnndee,M.DCC.LXHI.M Andrew Hamilton, who was arrested in Baker City a couple of months since for a murder committed in Illi nois twelve years ago, has just been acquitted, it having been proven that he acted simply in self-defense.

It is stated that a Boston, Ma??., fishing company are investigating the inducements on the Sound for the es tablishment of a large business for fishing, curing and canning halibut, sardines and salmon and shipping fresh fish iu ice. Perhaps it is not out of place to snggest that induce ments for such an enterprise may be found in the immediate vicinity of Astoria. FricghS shipments t Shoalwater bay and Gray's harbor, from this port, are increasing very noticeably so much so, in fact, that a deal of comment is elicited as to the onward movement of business and improve ment in those fertile sections. Asto ria merchants are awakening to this item of traffic, and, doubtless, noth ing necessary to do will be left un done to secure its advantages to this place. It was reported around yesterday that tho delayed adjustment of tho siato tax levy for the current year would be: btato purposes, four and nine-tenths mills; militia, one-fifth mill; university, one-tenth mill. But county clerk Trenchard received a telegram yesterday from secretary of state McBrido stating that the tax levy would not be made for several days, owing to the failure of Yamhill cointy to send in its assessment re turns. it After No. 2s had pumped the water from tho hull of the Telephone it was towed to Hume's dock. Largo numbers visited tho dock to take a look at tho conglomeration of dis mantled machinery, charred, halt consumed framework, bent and twist ed rods and stays, a black and dismal sight, all that remains of the once beautiful aud swift Telephone. The Gov. Newell took the wreck in tow for Portland yesterday afternoon. The subject of the utilization of the foothill lands, iu Clatsop couuty, in the cultivation thereon of fruits of many varieties is being discussed hereabouts with a worthy degree of earnestness. There is no room for possible doubt that fruit culture on the lower Columbia has been neg lected to the serious loss of those lo cally concerned. While our box factories are sending awny great shiploads f empty boxes, tho con sumers of Clatsop county are receiv ing and paying fancy figures of profit on great shiploads of boxes filled with fruits auri vegetables produced else where. There's tho difference and no close figuring is required to dis cover where that difference goes. - .i - m -. Girl Wanted. To d) light house work in small family. Anplv at this office immediate ly.

Dyspepsia is dreadful. Disordered liver is misery. Indigestion is a foe to good nature. The human digestive apparatus is ono of the most complicated aud wonderful things in existence. It is easily 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 peonlo a na tion of dyspeptics. But Green's August Flower ha. done a wondetful work in reforming this sad business and making ti: American people so healthy that tl;- can enjoy their meals and be happy. Remember: No happiness without health. But Green's August Flower brings health and h lppiness to the dyspeptic. Ask your druggist for a bottle. Seventy-five cents. PEltSO.VA h M F.XTION.

Major Blakeuey and Prof. Yon Beyer have selected a site for tho lo cation of the Point Adams life saving station, subject to tho approval of the secretary of tho treasury. Tho spot determined upon is m too cove to the eastward of Fort Stevens, at a point about the middle of the donation claim of B. C. Kindred. It is proposed to provide tho new station with a new life boat of greater capacity than any now iu the service, as well as a self-righting aud self b tiling surf boat. The station will be furnished with the most improved appliances of the life Baving service, and will bs manned with a trained crew. There will bo some necessary delay in " commencing " the" work," but 'Major Blakeney hopes that represenations to the proper au thorities will enable a life sav ing crew to be established at that point in time to render services to unfortunate fishermen or others next season. In the ordinary course of such matters, if everything goes well, the station would probably be ready for efficient service some time about next fall. When tho safety of so many lives is concerned the estab lishment can be made none too soon, and Major Blakeney and Prof. Von Beyer deserve credit for their en deavors to expedite the location of & life-saving crew at the Point Adams station. 3IONTE CISISTO.
