ASTORIA. OREGON:
WEDNESDAY- -ADGDST 21, 1889.
AN INFRACTION OF LAW.
Gov. Pexxoyer is a zealous official,
quick to resent any infraction of the
law. The Astokiak directs in this
most public manner, the attention of
his excellency to the Democratic
Times, a newspaper published at
Jacksonville, in this state. In the
eighth column, fourth page of the
Jacksonville Democratic Times, of
date August 15th, 1889, he will find a
display advertisement half a column
in length, of the Louisiana state
lottery. Advertisements of this lot
tery are prohibited by law in this
state. Such advertisement is an in
fraction of law.
Governor Pennoyer will receive
this copy of The Astobian to-morrow
afternoon. He will either do one
of two things verify or ignore this
charge. Being so earnest an advocate
of law it is intensely probable that he
will verify it by inspection. Having
done so, he will probably deem it his
duty to begin the proper legal pro
ceedings. The penalty is very plain.
The proprietor of our esteemed con
temporary is financially responsible.
"What are you going to do about it,
governor?
A farmer in Buena Vista county,
Iowa, is plucky. He shipped 300
steers to Chicago, and held them there
two days, but could not get what he
considered a fair price, so he shipped
them back home and began buying
more cattle. When he had 700
he shipped them to New York and
chartered a steamer for 3,200 and
took them to England. He realized
a handsome profit on the venture.
Pbof. Thurston, of Cornell univer
sity, in an article in the North Amer
ican Review, expresses the opinion
that the steam engine is still capable
of vast imprevement: that the next
generation will see the American con
tinent spanned by flying trains in
two days, and that ships of 20,000
tons will be nronelled at the rate of
40 miles an hour.
The Concurs Made Them Stop.
H. Devol and H. Jeldness went up
in the Cascade mountains a wees ago
looking for timber land. Last Thurs
day night about half past eleven as
they crossed a creek a mile and a half
from their intended camping ground,
they were startled by the yells of
cougars. There must have been a
whole family of the brutes for the
howls came from different directions
at the same time.
Here the two were at midnight in
the heart of the woods far away from
any human habitation and without
any more formidable weapon than an
ax and a pocket knife each. They
jumped from their horses, struck
matches and made a fire in a few
minutes. This stopped the noise and
they were no more disturbed during
the night. In the morning cougar
tracks were seen all round about a
hundred yards distance from the fire.
A SERIOUS BLUNDER,
A. Iady Nearly Prostrated by a Pat
ent Medicine.
A lady well-known la the Western Addition
bu been a great sufferer for yean with In
digestion and dyspepsia. Struck with ths
testimonial praising Joy's Vegetable Sana
parllla, she cent for a bottle. The druggist,
nothavinglt, talked them Into taklnganother
saisaparllla. Astholeadlngsarsaparlllastiso
mineral blood purifiers, the effect of tho
emptying of lodldo of potash into a stomach
already distressingly delicate was disastrous,
almost prostrating her before tho mistake was
rectified. She then called upon Mrs. Fowler,
of S27 Ellis street, whoso name was among
those cured by Joy's Vegetable Barsaparllla.
Ha. Fowler said it was true that it bad cured
her. Again reassured, tho vegetable con
pound was tent for and gotten. The gentle
action of Its vegetable- stimulants upon tho
liver, kidneys and digestive organs, and its
warm stomach tonics, were tho very things
seeded, and she began improving and was
her old self within a fortnight. This Bounds
like fiction, but tho names can be given if
necessary. Son Franexteo Examiner.

posed tour of inspection.
A CASE SETTLED.
The case of "William Basquell
against the British ship City of Car
lisle was settled this morning, the
court allowing plaintiff 1,500 dam
ages. The vessel, it will be remem
bered, arrived in Portland last March.
On her arrival suit was at once com
menced. Basquell, who is a boy. had
taken passage as an apprentice on the
City of Carlisle, bound from Liver
pool to Portland. In November of 1888
while at sea as the maintop sail was
being furled the boy was struck on
the head by what is technically
known as a clew iron. The wound
was very severe, as subsequent de
velopments proved, to the injured
boys brain. Basquelle claimed that
the accident was caused by the result
of carelessness on the part of Captain
C.D.Moore, and further that after
the accident the captain not only
failed to give him proper medical
treatment but abused him in a most
cruel and heartless manner. In pass
ing judgement the court held that in
regard to the accident itself both the
captain and boy were equally negli
gent, but in regard to the charge of
cruelty the evidence all went to show
that the captain" had treated the boy
in a shockingly inhuman manner. Jn
the apportionment of damages $200
was allowed for hospital expenses,
$300 for medical attendance, $30 for
wages, $1,000 for injury sustained.
AN OFFICIAL DECISION'.
Washington, Aug. 20. The attorney-general
has decided that captain
Duvergier, who was convicted of kill
ing consul Stanwood at Audakabe
some time ago, cannot legally be
brought to this country to Eervo out
his sentence of ten years. There are
no means of confining Duvergier at
Tamatave, and it was found necessary
to take him away from Madagascar
to confine him. The attorney-general
says he would be liable to release on
a writ of habeas corpus if brought
here. During former administrations,
prisoners sentenced by consular courts
in the Ottoman empire were brought
to the United States for confinement,
but the attorney-general explains that
this was done only when the prisoner
had been sentenced to death and the
president had used his power of mak
ing conditional pardon, and commuted
the sentence practically that way.
In the case of captain Duvergier re
course may be had to a similar
device, which would result in his con
finement in the United States for a
term less than ten years, pardon be
ing extended for the remainder of the
time, thus imposing the necessary
condition; but meanwhile officials of
the state department are not without
apprehensions that the prisoner may
by his escape avoid any official solu
tion of the problem. The state de
partment is much interested in the
matterr.as the increasing number of
trials and convictions in the consular
courts, especially in the islands of
the Pacific, where there are limited
means for the confinement of prison
ers, may render some new rule of law
necessary.
SECRETARY WINDOM ON CHINESE IUGIIT3.
"Washington, Aug. 20. Secretary
Windom has written a letter to T. J.
Barry of Boston in reply to an in
quiry, in which he says that Chinese
persons other than laborers may leave
and reenter the United States" with
out let or hindrance, provided they
satisfy the officers of the fact of their
not being laborers and of having law5
fully resided in the United States.
VERT IMPROBABLE.
London, Aug. 17. Cardinal Lavige
rie, it is understood, will shortly ap
peal in the name of the Holy Father,
Leo XDH, to the nations of Europe to
purchase from the infidel defilers the
Holy City of Jerusalem, and as much
of its surroundings as will be necessa
ry to form a small province, to be for
ever independent and guaranteed its
integrity by western powers. If suc
cessful, this victory for the cause of
civflization, it is considered by the
Cardinal and Pope Leo, would be the
greatest triumph ever achieved by the
Catholic church, would endear it to
the affections of -many now alienated
from its teaching and prestage, and
would do much toward creating a gen
eral desire for the restoration of its
temporal power.
A BOOK TRUST.
New York, Aug. 20. It is reported
a book trust will be organized with
English capital, the 'amount being $10
000,000. The Sun says the plau
mapped out is that an English syndi
cate shall buy outright the business
of the leading publishers of cheap nov
els in this city and Chicago.
A Sound Kcgal Opinion.
E.Balnbridge Muuday Esq., County
Atty., Clay Co., Texas says : '-Have used
Electric Bitters with most happy re
sults. My brother also was vepy low
with Malarial Fever and Jaundice, but
was cured by timely use of this medi
cine. Am satisfied Electric Bitters
saved his life."
Mr. D. I. Wilcoxson, of Horse Cave,
Ky., adds a like testimon y. saying : He
postively believes he would have died
had it not been for Electric Bitters.
This great remedy will ward off, as
well as cure all Malaria Diseases, and
for all Kidney, Liver and Stomach Dis
orders stands unequaled. Price 50 cents
and Si, at Jno C. Dement's.
English as She Is Wrote.
Here is a description of a base ball
game culled from the base ball col
umns of tho Chicago Herald:
Lacklaw sent a messenger to King
dom Come that threatened to scrape
the stars out of the sky. It fell into
the trap of O'Bourke, who froze to it,
while the crowd on the bleaching
boards shivered the air.
Kadspinner pushed a lawn-mower
over to center that left a blue streak
behind it in its eagerness to do the
Eli act.
Joblots lifted a regular blue-bottle
buzzer that fell into Sandy's
bread-winners, but there wasn't
enough fly-paper there and it didn't
stick.
Fitzjones got an undercut, and
banging the ball on the nose took
second, while the sphere went sailing,
the angels only knew where, and
though not on speaking terms with
the white-robed throng, O'Kaferty got
a clew and took the wandering leath
er into camp when it dropped from
the clouds with the perfumed breath
of Paradise still on its whiskera.
Hogan's curves were deadlier Ithan
a curvature of the spine, hissing over
the plate hot as a kitchen stove, and
after the usual swipes Bladdergast
was sentenced to the bench for assault
ing the wide outdoors.
