Co., has received 500 blue uniforms for its employes, which will be donned at once. The highest temperature for a long time was recorded at 3 o'clock last Tuesday afternoon at .TohnN.Giifiin's office 8S'. Rock for the foundation of the Kinney building and the Fulton Dement building has begun to arrive aDd operations on that part of Sque moqua street will soon be lively at low tide. Capt.

Tho militia fund of tho state hav ing been exhausted no further war rants for military purposes will be drawn by tho secretary of state till the fnud for the enrrent year becomes available about January 1, 18S9.

Scott sensibly says that he doesn't want to race when he has passengers aboard. It is not likely that the captain of the Potter wants to either. Scott says let the Potter get in and make her best record, do the best she can. and then he'll gel in and beat her recorded time.

Gray, came very-near nivmg a serious acci dent on the I. S. N. Co.'s wharf yes terday. He was driving a horse hoisting up coal out of tho steamer Dolphin, when tho singletree, where the hoisting rope is attached, broke and struck tho little fellow in the pit of -the stomach, knocking him out for n little while, but not seriously. THni. TTnncllinrv has sont to tlifl senato sundry civil appropriation bill committee the following estimate: For comploteing the improvements at tho mouth of tho Columbia river, 83, 422,500; for next year, S1,000,000; con structing a canal at tho Cascades of the Columbia river, 81,850.000 to complete the project, and 8500,000 for next year. Talking of No. 2's horses, it is learned that Harry Morgan, the chief ot the Portland firo department, and John Weinhard, the Portland brewer, both want to buy tho team. Wein hard has taken a faucy to the" team. and will, it is said, pay 8700 for the team and harness. The matter of -appropriating S75 per month for their maintenance comes up again for dis cussion in the conncil next Tuesday evening. The excursionists on tho Occident, yesterday report a good time. They visited Ilwaco, wore courteously en tertained by L. A. Loomis and Capt, Spencer, on the railroad to the beach and back again, visited the lighthouse, caught' a big lot of fine fish, inspected the hydraulic process of driving piles at the (jelly, escorted by Messrs. Stoneman and Freeman, and are unanimous in praise of the swift and commodious little vessel in which they made their trip. tr The sundry civil appropriation bill, reported to the senate last Tuesday, has been increased by the senate committee from S23.300.000 to 827, 300,000, but is still 3050,000 less than tho estimates. It exceeds last year's bill by nearly 85,000,000. Following are tho increases or new appropria tions for lightheuses: Statue of Lib erty, Bedloe'3 island, N. Y., for com pleting the pedestal and approaches, S30.000; Point Lobos, CaL, S80.000; Ballast point. CaL, 825,000; Umpqua river, Or., 8S0.000: Astoria, Or., 8150,-000. "Yoa set that in n little too deep, about people sending money to Portland, this morning," said a friend yesterday. Y-e-e-e-s? Well. really, it was. if anything, less than the truth. Here is one little instance about a3 small a3 any of the -numer ous instances a newspaper man hears of. And this is onlr one of manv. The wife of a prosperous business mau of this city, last Monday went into n bakery, and complaimngly saij. "You make yonr loaves too small. I can get a bigger loat for five cents in Portland than I can from you, and am going to make ar rangements to have three five-cent loaves sent me every week from Port land." And she did. This may be too deep or too shallow, but it is a fact all the same, incredible as it may seem. Tiie Astorian doesn't want to give any ono away, for after all it is a matter of private business, but yet is strongly tempted to give about a column of instances ot this kind of business, every line of which it can prove. Of course people have a right to do this if they want to. and it is none of the newspaper's business if they send to Timbuctoo for their for wittles. But what ought we do to make the town livelier? PERSONAL MENTION. Sheriff Ross returned from Gray's River yesterday. Graham Glass, Jr., an experienced newspaper man, has bought tho Yam hill Reporter. Rev. M. D. Wilson, fomerly rector of Grace church, now at Vancouver, was in tho city yesterday. ltemarks of Major llandbury. The engineer in charge of the work at the mouth of the Columbia river has made au elaborate report of the improvement in course of construc tion there. He recites tho plan of work and what it is anticipated it will accomplish. Ho then relates what has already been done, and finally speaks as followH with regard to the future of the werk: "With the funds that may be available for oper ation? during the present fiscal year it is proposed to continue the con struction of the jetty by moans of a jetty tramway, from which rock is now to be dumped, in place audalso by tugs and barges suitably 'con structed for tho purpose. It is pro posed to deposit n large proportion of the rock from these barges directly in and along the line ot the jetty. An early completion ot this work is exceedingly desirable. First, because of the necessity for giving relief to the commerce, which i3 large and im portant, that passes out and in over the bar; second, to avoid the in creased cost that must result from tho deterioration and removal of tho plant, which is necessarily large and expensive. The jetty tramway, from which the rock is delivered, extends out on the proposed spit, and is so- verely tried by every storm that visits this locality, it is very liable to be injured, and parts of it washed away. To drive new piles into the sand, through the rocks ot the jetty, and reconstruct it, would be difficult and expensive. Where so large an amount of money is invested, as must event ually be, in this project, and whero'so many interests are concerned, sound business policy would dictate that the work should be pushed as rap idly as money could be profitably ex pended upon it. It is estimated that 81,000,000 could be profitably, ex pended upon this work in the fiscal year ending June 30, 1889." Heal j Estate Transaction J. O. Bozorth and wife to Geo.

TEAoasas w oomioir Tha Chicago Anarchists To Bo Given Speedy- Justice. An Ocean Steamship Sinks a Schooner and Twenty 31 en. Jersey. City, July 18. Henry Ebert the wife murderer, was hanged in tho jail yard here this morning. When the trap sprung, the knot slipped around under the jaw and dis arranged the cap so that Ebert's face was exposed to view as he slowly strangled to death. Ebert married his wife who was a widow, to possess himself of Sl,200 whioh her first husband had be queathed to the woman's child, but failed in this. He then had his wife put into an insane asylum for some purpose and when she was released he shot her dead, as she was attempt ing to enter their home. His pre tended attempt immediately after to kill himself was bootless, probably the intent being to create sympathy. HANOED AT FREEHOLD. Freehold, N. Y., July 18 B. Kear ney was hanged here today. He was a coachman who attempted a criminal assault upon Mrs. Parcel!, employed by the wealthy Lyddy family at El bron. Kearney was foiled by his victim, but he beat her Bavagely and she died of her injuries. FANNY IS DIVORCED. New York, July 18. Fanny Daven port Price, actress, has been granted absolute divorce by Judge Barrett ot the supreme conrt from her husband H. H. Price. The decree was filed June 18. EIGHTEEN HUNDRED TEAOHEBS. San Francisco, July 18. The Grand opera house presented nn ani mated appearance this morning, as the teachers began to assemble for the first regular session of the na tional teachers association. When president Gove called the convention to order at nine o'clock, there were fully eighteen hundred teachers from every part of the United States, as well as from a number of foreign countries present. The convention was formally opened with prayer by Mr. Dillig of Oakland. T. H. McBride ot Iowa, was appointed temporary secretary, after which it was agreed that the in coming board ot directors, should appoint the committee who would select a permanent secretary, and also take charge of the official doings of the convention and decide upon a permanent place ot meeting. The committees appointed upon exposition resolutions und necrology, was the next business before the convention. The consideration of the theme, "The importance of reading courses in common schools," was the first paper and was read by Horace E. Sondder. A. M. of Cambridge, Mass., his sub ject being, "The place of literature in common school education." A FATAL ACCIDENT. Portland, July 18. A private dis- patch has been roceived here from Sacramento to the effect that Mrs. F. Pierson, of Portland, had been run oyer by the -cars near Bocklin, and killed. No particulars are given. THE CHICAGO ANARCHISTS. Chicago, July 18. The course to be pursued in prosecuting the would be assassins of Grinnell, Garry, and Bonfield, was decided upon this morning. It was semi-officially an nounced that the anarchists would be taken about noon before a justice, and the cases continued for ten d-iys. That would give opportunity for pre seating the murderous conspiracy with the least possible delay to the grand jury, which assembles Monday. Speedy indictments and trials are hoped for by the authorities, the object being to make a lesson of justice. a schooner run over. New Yortt.

ManrJf the passengers on the steamship were horrified wit nesses nf thn nnllininn Tim loot vessel was probably a French fisher man, xue steamsnip omcers claim that all tho usual precautions wero boing taken when tho collision oc curred. An Explanation. What iithis "nervous trouble" with which so many seem now to be af flicted? If yon will remember a few years ago the word Malaria was com paratively unknown, to-day it is as common as any word in the English language, yet th,is word cover's only the meaning ot another word used by our forefathers, in times past So it is with nervous diseases, as they and Malaria are intended' to cover what our grandfathers called Billiousness, and all are caused by troubles that arise from a diseased condition of the Liver which in performine its fnnc nuns uuuiug it cannot dispose ol tne bile through the ordinary channel is compelled to pass it off through the syBiem, causing nervous troubles, Malaria, Billions Fever, etc You who are suffering can well appreciate a cure. We recommend Green's Au gust Flower. Its cures are mar velous. The wheat crop promises to be enormous in the Willamette valley this year, and with even moderately good prices ought to make brisk times this fall.

The managers of tho O.K.&N.Co. have issued a general order directing the uiocuiibiuutuiuo ui. uu uccuii puois iiere tofore used on thoir steamers running between San Frsnoisco and Portland. Portland News, 18. This, if true, would appear to be a business mistake, if the pilots on the San Francisco and Columbia , bars, and on the Columbia and Willamette rivers between hero and Portland are to bo discontinued from further em ployment on the Coliunbia, Oregon ani State of California. There appears to be something in it, though nothing official has, as yet, been promulgated. As The Astorian gets it from an old responsible river man who is not connected with the business, it appears that some time ago the company asked Capt. Ackley of the late,Capt.Bolles of the Colum bia, andCaptPohlmanof theOregon, if they could and would bring their vessels in and ont to and from San Francisco and Astoria without pilots. The three captains got together and agreed that whether they- could or not they woman t, and so reported to the company, uur informant states hat subsequently Capt Bolles told the company's officers that he was willing to take his ship in and out. As stated, no official announcement has yet been made, but it looks a3 though some such order will be issued; it is thought pilot Jessen.of tho Stare will be retained. To do away with the pilot service on the San Francisco steamers would be an injury to tho efficiency and safety of the service, and a manifest detriment to the revenues of the com pany. Apart from prudence it is evident that there is no economy about it. The delay, the increased consumption ot coal and the general insecurity nnu auueu responBioiuty, togotner with the distrust of tho passengers will, it is believed, be of more injury and loss to the company - than can bo represented by the trifling saving of 8150 a month' in tho discharge of ex perienced and competent pilots on a route where experience has demon strated the necessity of their pres ence. Total Eclipse of the Moon. Tho moon will bo totally eclipsed next Sunday night .The times of the phases aro as follews: Moon enters shadow 7:43 r. m. Total eolipse begins 8:41 " Middle of the eclipso 95C " Total eclipse ends 1057 " Moon leaves shadow 11:20 " The eclipso will be visible generally throughout North, and Sonth Amor ica, and in portions of Europe, Africa and the Pacific ocean. It is a repe tition of the eclipse of July 12. 1870. Tho magnitude of tho eclipso is 1.825, tho moon's diameter being 1. The totally eclipsed moon lsplaiuly visible in the firmament in far the greater number ot eclipses, tho color of the disk varying from a copper huo to a deep, somber gray. The color ing is explained in this way: The sunlight grazing f he. earth's atmos phere is refracted into tho earth's shadow, and the light on the moon is tue result, if tne atmosphere be pure and cloudless, tho moon will present a reddish, coppery hue. If it be full of clouds and vapor, the moon will present a darker and more somber hue. If., the earth had no atmosphere, the moon wonld be in visible during totality. Tor FirVf IMaec.
