The population of Astoria at the present time is 6,000, and don't you forget it. The British bark Argyleshire car ries 41,122 bus. wheat to Qaeenstown, worth 337,000.

They offered him a cosition that would bring him money from S100 to 8200 per month, lie refnseci. ine ques tion was settled. God bloss him and keep him trne." On New Year's day. near Waabon Kal, W. T., a wood chopper, named Vaughn, was cutting timber in the forest with a companion, nnd the two men were Just felling a large tree. A tall dead tree stood rear, against descent. His companion saw "that joe aead tree would oe BtrncK ana iamrjed nntnf th nnv. callin? at the name lime loudly in waraiuK iu t augnn.

Yesterdav afternoon several chil dren were playing on the raised track of the street railway near the opera bouse when a passing car struck and ran over the two-year-old daughter of J. T. Leasy, injuring the arm and groin, the flange of the wheel strik ing the latter. Toe little suuerer was removed to her home nnd last evening was resting easily, it being yet uncertain as to the extent of her injuries. 0.110 driver ot ine car, car ry Waldman, was arrested and locked up, to await the result ot the injuries to the child. It was a narrow escape from instant death to the little one, and should serve as a warning to other children to not endanger them selves in a Bimilar manner. A CARD THOU H. JEJJSEK. The Superiority of the Jensen Machines. Theo. Brakke has kept a record of the weather for several years, and his log beats memory all to pieces. In another column appears the words of Katie Putnam's favorite song. Any one calling on H. Wise, Occident block, can get the tune. ' The youngest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Fred Oberg is reported serious ly ill, with what is pronounced to be membraneous croup, or diphtheria. The opening soiree ot the dancing academy will be given to-morrow evening, and a social and pleasant evening's amusement is guaranteed all who attend. Miss A. J. Smith will continue her painting class as formerly, on every Friday, ot what was formerly the Rescue Temperance hall, now occu pied by B. S. Worsley. There will be a small charge ot 25 cents at the Congregational church entertainment to-morrow night, but the subsequent refreshments Will be free. The church will be comforta bly heated. At Wednesday evening's meeting of the Columbia Biver Fishermen's Protective Union, the price of salmon for the coming season was set at last -season's figures, one dollar fur can nery nets, one dollar nnd twenty-five cents for outside nets. John Kopp, tho lively brewer, is a pretty good immigration society him pelf. By his representations of the advantages of Astoria since he came here 36 people have become residents of this city. His example, in this re gard, is a good one to follow. Last November a borso owned by R. R Marion was killed while hoist ing material to tho second story ot the Fulton building. Yesterday, in Jus tice May's court, the owner recovered $150 tor tho animal's loss from the contractors, Smythe & Kason. Who 1 Your Best Friend? Youratomach of course. Why?

Their Business Dooming. Probably no one thing has caused such a general revival ot trade at J. W.

Astoria, Jan. 3, '89. Editob Astebiak: In The Astobiak ot to-day regard ing tho suit of Norton et al., vs. the Jensen Can Filling Machine Co., are certain mistakes whioh we desire to have correoted. First the JSorton Bros, complaint is for infringement on eight different patented machines in place of one, as stated. Second, tho Jensen capping ma chine is not only au improvement on other machines ot that kind, but it is the only machine that can bo used to any advantage by salmon canners in capping the usual cans. It has been proved by practical experience with both the Norton and tho Jensen machines that the Jensen is superior in rapidity and certainty to such an extent that it is certain to displace the Norton wherever it is introduced. The Jensen capping machine has been fully investigated by the best official experts in the world and a patent allowed thereon, and the Nor tons will find that every attempt they make to check its progress will not only fail, but it will create a more formidable competition against their now lucrative monopo ly. It is not the dollars that creates or tetards invention, but the life of invention is competition the same as the life of other industries, and the ex isting laws do not bar competition, but fully sustain tho same. This suit has no terror to us, but rather an entertainment for which the Nortons will bo obliged to settle. It should also be mentioned that these Chicago gentlemen were ap parently more worried about the Jen sen can making machine than his cap per, as they made lour unsuccessful attempts for opportunities to investi gate the same, as follews: They first came into the Jensen Can Fill ing Co.'s and the Astoria Iron Works shops at noon and when no foreman was present, and investigated the ma chinery in sight. Next they asked permission from M. Jonseu for seeing the can making machine or its model, wnicn was rejected. Again, they came to A. Fox asking the same privilege, which was likewise rejected; and again, they attempted to gain the privilege from the book-keeper, Mr. Moore, of the Astoria Iron Works but with the same result. Their trouble about the Jensen can making ma chine is not fully known to us. TnE Jesses Oak Filling Machine Co. M. Jensen, Pres't. The Publish Ids And Patent Offices of The Scientific American.

CiUIreE Cry fwPitclier's Castoria Perhaps some of our readers have visited the extensive offices of the Scientific American, nt3Gl Broad way, .New lork, but may have not, and to such the following account may bo ot interest. A correspondent who recently had this pleasure in forms us that he was greatly sur prised at tho magnitude of the es tablishment It suggests to bis mind au enormous insurance company or banking house. At the main office, which is principally devoted to the patent business forming as it does so important a part. of the establish mentmay be seen the members or tho firm and their able corps of ex aminers. Ready access to the prin cipals is afforded to every one; and here may be seen inventors from all parts of the country Bhowing their models and drawings, nnd explaining their inventions. Tho models left by inventors form n largo nnd interest ing collection, and are kept iu a room by themselves. The large corps of draughtsmen who preparo tho patent drawings nre for tho most part ex perienced mechanics, electricians or engineers, some ot them having been connected with the TJ. S. patent of fice. Most of tho correspondence is carried on by type writers, and this necessitates a separate department, where a number ot experienced fe male type writers and stenographers are constantly employed. The dark room, where the photographs ot the patent drawings are copied, and where the photographs for the archi tectural department ore developed, is also on this floor. On the floor above may be found tho editorial rooms, compositors' and subscription room, and engravers department. The architectual department oc cupies the top floor, and here may be seen the manager of this department, and also a number of draughtsman at work preparing the plans and general designs for the Architect and Builder edition of the Scientific American, which is published monthly, and has attained a widespread ciculation. Tho printing of the papers is carried on in a separate building. At the en trance of the main office, which alone occupies a floor space of 60 by 165 feet, may be seen ono of Prof. Dra per's remarkable recording barom eters, with which instrument a com plete record is kept of the atmos pheric changes. This barometer was built specially for the Scietitific American, and it is a remarkably hue and sensitive as well a3 a very expensive instrument. Home idea may be had of tue ex tent of the business done at the of fice of the Scientific American when we Btate that over one hundred per sons are employed by Mnnn & Co. on their several publications and in their extensive patent departments. i Epoch. The transition from long, lingering and painful sickness to robust health marks an epoch in the life of the -individual. Such a remarkable event Is treasured in the memory and the agency whereby the good health has been at tained Is gratefullv blessed. Hence it is that so much Is heard in praise of Elec tric Bitters. So many feel they owe their restoration to health to the use of thfi Great Alterative and Tonic. If VOU am troubled with anv disease of the Kidneys, Liver or Stomach, of long or short standlngyou will surely find re lief by use of Electric Bitters.
