"Navigation has closed on tho Co lumbia,'' says some of our California exchanges. Gentlemen, you are misinformed. Vessels, small and large, sail and steam, go to and fro, and up and down on the broad bosom of the Columbia, which by day re fleetsthe azure of the heavens and by night gives back the borrowed beauty of the stars. The new uniforms for the officers of the Jfanzanita and other govern ment vessels on the roast are some thing etunning. They are ringed, streaked and striped, and are just as pretty as a red wagon painted blue.

A News reporter learns that fhn naval board, which is to select the site for the now navy yard, will reach Portland about the 20th inst, coming overland from San Francisco. The aeiay in reaoning uere was caused by the severe sickness of Capt. Mahan, the senior member of theboard. The board will, nfter arriving here, inspect the Columbia river and afterwards the Sound. The naval officers mn- stituting the board will, while in specting tho waters of these two Dooies. travel in tne ligut-houee ten der Manzanita. - i "Changing the leopard spots" is the newest scheme in church fairs. The minister stretohes a large piece of wuue ciom across one end of the room. On it is drawn in charcoal n representation of a leopard, with its moutu open and its tail trailing on the ground. About 40 tApp nt ;-. cnlar black cloth a conple of inches in diameter are fastened all over the leopard with pins. "Can the leopard change its spots?" says the preacher, repeating the Biblical question. It can by a simple process. Each one in the congregation pays 81 and buvs a spot until the leopard resembles" a white calf. Then the camn is .. peated until everybody, including the leopard, is perfectly satisfied with the result. Few people indeed, among the many millions scattered throughout the length and breadth of the union, would believe that there is a section of the United States where the result of the presidential election will not be known untill July, 1889, eight months after the official returns are published to the world. Such is the fact, however. The settlers at St Michaels, the Seal islands, and those lomiciled along the banks of the Lower Yukon will remain in uncer tainty as to the outcome of the con test uuti! after the midnight sun has come and gone during the midsum mer of next year. Even the denizens ofKodiakand Ounalaska will have to wait patiently for the news until the end of March, there being no communication whatever between San Francisco and those settlements during the winter months. m PERSONAL MENTION. J. W. Hare has returned from Port land. Miss Strang goes to Salem, to at tend the legislature iu the capaoity of clerk. W. H. Whitcomb and family, O. P. Unshur. J. H. D. Gray. H. B.

Kapus will cast the electoral vote of Oregon at Salem next Monday. The former will carry the official vote to Washington. Mr. Fulton will be accompanied by his wife. How Men Die. If we know all the methods of ap proach adopted by an enemy we are the better enabled to ward off the danger and pospono the moment when surrender becomes inevitable. In many instances the inherent strength of the body suffices to enable it to op pose tne tendency toward death. Many however have lost these forces to such au extent that there is little or do help. Iu other cases a little aid to the weakened Lungs will make all the difference between sudden death and many years of useful life. Upon the first symptoms of a Cough, uoid or any trouble ot tne throat or Lungs, give that old and wellknown remedy Boschee s German Syrup, n careful trial. It will prove what thousands say of it to be, the bene factor of any home." A Good Word For the School Ma'am. Tho schoolma'am is the guiding star of the republic. She takes the little bandit fresh from the home nest full of his pouts and passions an ungovernable little wretch whoso own mother often admits that she sends him to school to get him out of the way. The schoolma'am takes a whole carload of these little anarch ists and puts them iu the way of bo coming useful citizens. At what ex pense of patience, toil and soulweari ness! Do not imagine sbo is ever compensated by the Balary she re ceives. Idaho Free Press. Dainty little globules. Fine, and wh te, and sweet, Easy to be swallowed; In their work, complete.

Writing to the editor of thi3 paper under date of the 8th inst., a promi nent citizen of Albany and a leading spirit in the proposed Astoria-Albany railroad, says: "Albany wants the Astoria rail road and is willing to build this end of it. The company referred to in your telegram will be incorporated at once for this purpose. ' You see we appreciate the impor tance of Astoria's harbor and want to see you connected with us, and the soon to be eastern route of the Ore gon Pacific." KSTITLED TO THK BEST.
