Brenham VanDusen yesterday re ceived a letter from Rev. T. A. Hyland, New York city, taking stock to the amount of 500 in tho Astoria and South Coast railway. A double track is beiug laid at the government works at Fort Stevens from the office to the dock. It is now a continuous double track from one end of the jetty to the other. A pleasant feature of the season's salmon fishing on the lower Columbia is, so far, the total absence of any but minor casualties, there being little loss of property and no loss of life. It has been a terrible three week? for accidents. First tho AJaaskan disaster, then tho Johnstown Hood and now the Seattle fire. What nest ' Nothing, let us hope, in that line, for Bimo time. Some of our eastern Oregon ex changes have lots of sand. The sand blows in through the wrappers and when the papers are opened the sand begins to sift onto the polished roahog Hny'escritoire. The editor of the San Francisco Examiner hasu SG.000 bath tub." But any common, ordinary newspaper man can have just as much fun slosh ing aronnd in a 82.50 bath tub and come out just as clean. Events like the Johnstown Hood and tho Seattle fire, show the grand heroic side of human nature and the charity that springs from the heart to the ready hand, responsive to the cry for help from human brothers. The light house tender Manzanita arrived from n cruise np to San Juan island last evening. "When near the head of Sand Island she picked up the tug Escort with a hawser in her propeller nnd towed her to Kinney's dock. In Seattle the total insurance was 31,250,000, of this $1,004,000 was held in companies represented m San Francisco, six Oregon companies carry risks representing 8250,000; fifteen small outside companies carry risks .estimated at 8150,000. When the Manzanita was near the region of Cape Flatter' early yester day morning, a passing tug informed Captain Richardson of the lire at Seat tle. Although many miles north of Seattle the captain saw dense volnnes - of smoke from the fire. Harlow J. Smith went to Portland from Seattle last Thursday. Before leaving Seattle he hid 85,000 in green backs in tlie building that he partly occupied. The next day that building and several other buildings went up in flame and smoke and he feels sorry bout his 85,000- "Pass Mr. Carey and the-dcids he brings," wrote the ticket agent of a circuVin Sacramento last week.

Walter Young was driving piles nt Hustler's dock a pile that was being unveii uroKe in iwo in tne middle, letting a 2,700 pound hammer fall into the river at a depth of 24 feet at low water. Mr. Young was struck by a sliver from the pile but not seriously hurt. G. O. Moen will attempt to re cover the hammer to-day. J. W. Crow enme infn Tnp Aurn.

'KTinnn A IWnPIinr- son, Miss Kate McDonald and Wnr u inters, i apiece. u.ne serine takes pleasure in recording such prompt charity and dropped tho gold engle into the relief committee's sack. Since telegraphing the amount sub scribed to the Johnstown sufferers last Friday morning, the writer has been offered S2G more, which was declined, as that collection was over and done 'with. Any one who has a little leisure might, with propriety, take hold of the matter. If the parties who offered us the 82G will give it to the Seattle relief committee it will do good, and be a contribution to a cause, equally worthy. A dispatch last evening said that Portland proposes to have a big cele bration of the Fourth at Vanceuver: that there will be a sham bat tie be t ween the militia and the regular troops; that four companies of cavalry will be there; that an admission fee " will be charged, and tho proceeds sent to Seattle. The Vancouver celebration is all right, but longlxfore the Fourth of next month the Seattle folks wont want aid from am quarter. They ain't built that way. Portland folks are invited to come down here that day and cool off and have a pleasant time and join in our big celebratiou. According to a detailed account of the Seattle lire it appears that it was badly managed at the start. The de partment is said to have been slow in getting to the fire, and when there it took a little time for them to realize that they couldn't save the building in which the fire originated. Time at the beginning of a fire is usually worth about S25.000 a minute. In the start of Thursday's fire at Seattle, however, it was worth 825,000 a sec ond. That's why firemen are in such a hurry to get to a fire and why when they do get there they don't want to organize a debating society and elect a chairman but get to work. PERSONAL 3IENTION. A. E.

For a year I was troubled with palm la my bacfc and side, and headaches, the re sult of ltver and kidney trouble. I wa attracted to Joy's Vegetable Harsaparilla, by the startling testimonials in the pa pers. They seemed so practical I was in duced to try it, knowing that as it was pnrcly vegetable, it would do no harm. It acted as a gentle laxative. After the second liottle my pains and aches illsap lcared. It did so much lor me that I sent several bottles to my family in Xcw Jersey, who also took it with the most atilactory results. sV As lfiOU7.CZ.-i Master Caulker, foot Clay, Pan rraocisco.

At a meeting called for that pur pose yesterday moming, Mayor Page in the chair, a committee consisting of C. J. Trenchard, J. W. Hume, J. H. D. Gray, O. H. Stockton, B. S. Wors ley, and W. B.

At 3, prompt, the city council held a special meeting and passed an ordin ance appropriating 8500 for the same purpose. City auditor Jewett en grossed the ordinance forthwith, May or Page signed it, and it was at once deposited with Mr. Case, who was instructed to wire Seattle that Astoria sent her sister city one thousand dol lars.

CMWres Cry RrPitclier's Castoria A BfilEF INTERVIEW. With An Old Traveler Yesterday. And The Slnsular Tale That Was Told. The bkies that flush in crimson splendor above our quiet bay bent in gleaming curve along Ft. Stevens beach yesterday as an Astobian re porter sauntered on tho sand. "More thauja century has elapsed since last I saw this shining shore," said a stranger to TnE Astorian representative. "Those shelving sands, that wood crowned height, that bold promontory on the north are tho same: I see myriads of white winged beats: I see an enormous work projecting like a gigantic animal with myriad feet, its huge length into the sea. I see what is to me a grand banner, the stars and stripes floating above that quiet moated grange which was once Ft. Stevens, and I see other changes but, as a whole, this place looks to me singularly as it did just a centurv ago." "Have you just arrived?" asked the reporter. "Yes, and it surprises mo to meet a newspaper reporter on this far Pacific strand. But during the century since last I visited here I have had many singular experiences." "I belong to a migratory race. I nni constantly traveling, and never am still. Yesterday I was on the crest of a wave that rolled over tho last ves tige of the Alaskan. Two days be fore I paused for a second at a depth of 500 feet on the face of one of the men who were drowned after tossing in a life beat: a week ago I was float-' ing with myriads of my brothers in a cloud that veiled the moen: a month ago I was tantalizing in company with my race, some hot becalmed sailors on earth's central line: a year ago I was in the Yu kon river: two years ago I escaped iu steam from the Yellowstone geyser: I fell with my fellows into a rocky pool, and glanced from a trout's back on a blade of grass which I vivified and made emerald green. I soared toward the sun, but was condensed and fell with fresh force as glittering dew on a Knnsas rese: I soared ngain into space, was swept by the wind to Mexico; was cast in rain into the great gulf; was part of a cloud burst in Cuba; was caught with others of my kind by a shipwrecked sailor in bjs shirt, and swallowed by him iu a lone uoai in tne ooutn Atlantic; 1 lay as a bead of perspiration on his brow as he gasped and breathed no more. 'Then I glittered as a snowflake on the loftiest pinnacle of the Andes in eternal winter; I went in my usual form from their base to tho sea on the Amazon river; I roamed some times in the air, sometimes in my present shapo round Ihe earth, and can no longer stay for there is to bo n tremendous fire on the coast in a fen days and I am to help with other drops to put it out." And the little drop of water glis tened in crystal beauty, an airy foam 1k11 on the top of n wave, and as the white crest tot the surge slipped nlong the sand, the little drop that had been so briefly interviewed, and had told so strange a talo, gleamed a bright adieu and went with other drops to join in a rainstorm at Seattle.
