It was stated that recently the din
ing car o a westbound passenger
train was invaded at Pasco by two
nearly starved peewee birds, whose
famished condition awakened the sym
pathy of the steward who gave them
some crumb3. They had lived on the
land, but there wasn't fat enough on
it to grease a gimlet It was explained
by a gentleman who was present and
who knew Pasco, that these birds in
that vicinity always traveled in pairs,
as they were generally loo weak to
chirp alone; and after they had rested
awhile, this was demonstrated, as one
faintly chirped pee, and the other
answered wee. It took both of them
to complete the call.

The formal transfer of the Puget

In the months of June and July,
there is very little flood tide at the
mouth of the Columbia, the immense
volume of water sweeping to the sea ' calling it to order.
Keeping uacK me iiue. xue same
thing is observable at present at San
Francisco. Since the recent heavy
rains in California the immense vol
ume of water pouring down the Sac
ramento river forces back the incom
ing flood tides. The Merchant's ex
change boarding reporters, when they
cross the bay toward Lime Point, have
a hard job returning owing to the
swift current Captains of smallcoast
ing crafts entering or attempting to
enter the harbor with the flood tide
are nuzzled to find that they can
Last Saturday's Oregonian in an
article about the Hermione, made the
astounding statement that there were
fourteen total losses of vessels at the
Columbia during the seven years
from '81 to '8S inclusive.
Such a manifest falsehood could not
be allowed lo pass unnoticed, coming
from so responsible a source, and The
Astorian of the following morning
styled it a grave mistake, and hoped
to see its inland contemporary correct
the grievous error into which it had
fallen.
As usual, however, when the Ore
gonian is caught lying, it begins to
bluster and tries to pooh pooh, any
make no headway. The fact is that
the current from the river counteracts
the incoming tide and the vessels have
to hang offand on the outside, waiting
a favorable slant of wind to come in.
In yesterday's issne it devotes an
even two columns to an unsuccessful
effort to prove that it was right in
its egregious error of last Saturday.
It is a failure though.
How great a failure may be illus
trated by tho fact that in its singular
effort to decry the splended entrance
to the Columbia river, and for some
sinister motive attempt to cast dis
cedit on the port, it includes every
marine casualty up and down the
coast, and heaps them all at the Co
lumbia bar.
On the 8th iut The Astoria:; had
a "1989'' edition which afforded con
siderable amusement at home and
abroad, and elicited many kindly no
tices from many of our exchanges.
In connection Aith that The Astoki
ax thinks it has a good joke on its
sprightly and usually wide awake con
temporary, the Port i'ownsend Leader.
Among other efforts to be amusing in
the issue of TnE Astoriax of the 8th,
was an editorial on the imaginary tun
nel just completed betweeu England
and Prance. It sounded all right, but
was plainly a "josh." But the Leader,
in the last issue to hand, gravely cop
ies it, changes the dates back one
hundred years, to the present, and
gives it a3 a current editorial on pres
ent events. To the original perpet
rator of the effort it looks amusing.
It reminds one of "tho jumping frog
of Calaveras county,"' after it had
been translated into French, and
then back again into United States.
IN THE CHURCHES.
The county court meets lo-morrow,
and will implore the Almighty to have
mercy on them for all they have done
during the past j ear.
Astoria has the cleanest and nicest
streets in Orogon, or Washington,
to-day, or auy other day. That isn't
saying much for the rest of 'em, but it
is so, all Ihefhme.
The Columbia skating club gae
their iegular weekly paity at the link
last evening and was largely attended,
those being in attendance enjoying
themselves immensely.
The following marriage licenses
were issued yesterday by county clerk
Trenchard: John Josephson and Katie
C. "Whiller, and James G.Bunnell and
Margaret A. "Wentworth.
The contract for the building of a
new lightship for the mouth of the
Columbia river has been awarded to
Hall Bros, of Port Blakelcy. When
finished she will have two lights and
a fog whistle.
They're saying some mean things
about Pasco, up country. One ex
change says that a Siwash struck that
town the other day, and stole the city
hall to make a pair of pants. This
sounds like a campaign lie,
Yesterday morning Chester Law
rence, a bojr eight jears old, while
coasting on the hill above the opera
house, "was run over by a sled on
which were Iv.o biglxr.s. Tho little
fellow was severely injured.
If correspondents of ihe Wasco
county papers are to be believed, the
way the government work at the Cas
cade locks is carried on, the appropri
ations are not doing much good to tho
government, or an body else.
One of Hurlburt's assistants came
in from the scene of the present sur
vey yesterday, and leports three feet
of snow on the divide of the Nehalem.
Hurlburt had been looking for a suit
able pass down Big Creek, but last
Friday returned to Portland.
Firss Lieutenant Tuttle is tempora
rily in command of the revenue cut
ter Kusli, owing to Captain Shep
ard's promotion. It i3 believed that
this officer will be promoted to the
command, as his long experience in
Alaskan waters eminently fits him for
the position.
Samples of ore from newly discov
ered tin mines in the Cascade moun
tains above ihe Green river, assay
eight per cent. tin. Thousands of tons
of good ore reported in sight The
discovers thought a coal measure had
been struck, and it was only on exam
ination that it was found to be the
richest tin ore in the world.
Councihnen Welch, Cleveland and
Bergman showed up last night in the
council room; so did auditor and po
lice judge Jewett, city attorney No
land and an Astoriax reporter, and
after losing some precious time wait
ing for auother to make a quorum
and do something, it was decided
to try it again Saturday night.
Capt J. H. D. Gray will accept the
postmastership. He or somebody else
can make a good record in that office,
and shine by contrast with the way
it has been run for the past few years.
No blame is lo be attached lo post
master Bell; he ha3 filled the onerous
position to the best of his ability, but
the office has been a constant source
of annoyance, all round.
W7hen a telegraph or telephone wire
comes in contact with a bare electric

the wires cross, a fire may be the
result Consequently no business

A paragraph is going the rounds
about a girl dying from tight lacing.
One bold newspaper man comment-?-nrr
on the fact says: "These corsets
ought to be done away with, and if
the girls can't live without being
squeezed we suppose men could be
found wno wouiu buui-wtc uiCJuo.w.
As old as Tve are we'd rather devoto
three tours a day without a farthing
of pay, as a brevet corset, than see
these girls dying in that manner.
Office hours almost any time."
Yesterday Evening's ChrMm i Tuts.
There were Christmas trees in all the
churches yesterday evening:
At the Congregational church there
were two trees, one on each side of
the Christmas ship; all illuminated
and loaded with presents; a pro
gramme consisting of sacred songs and
recitations, was neatly rendered. Aug.
Friecke acted as Santa Claus; every
body was happy: Mr. Hall, the worthy
pastor, received many handsome pres
ents and $50 gold coin.
Tho Methodist church was filled to
repletion with 150 children and their
parents last eening. The handsome
Christmas tree was loaded down with
presents for the children. J. Toll,
acted as Santa Claus and gave general
satisfaction. It would have gladdened
the heart of any person who could
have seen the children's ejes glisten
with delight when their names were
called and went forward to receive
their piescnts. Recitations songs and
essas, by the different members of
the Sunday school were w ell rendered.
The pastor was well remembered by a
Christmas cift of a well-filled purse.
At the Presbyterian church the lit
erary exercises began with music by
the choir, then a prayer by E. C.
Holden, then music, next a reading
i'The Child's Kingdom" by Miss Em
ma Warren and music by the school,
tlipn n TwH:it?nn 'Tlir'Rankfr's Christ
mas Gift'' by Pearl Holden followed
by music by the school, a few remarks
by Mr. Campbell, music by the choir
and the distribution of presents.
At the Baptist church there was
some very fine .music, a well laden
Chrislman tree, J. E. Higgins appear
ing as a veritable Santa Claus, sleigh,
bells and all.
At Grace Episcopal church the
zealous ladies had a splendid Christ
mas tree, fine music, and a handsome
remembrance for Mr. Short, the rector.
Were it not for the ladies of the
several churches the work would
languish. They one and all deserve
credit for their unselfish and nntir
inr efforts, and last night found

MARINE NEWS AND NOTES.
The steamer Lakme sails for Seat

The steam schooner Augusta arrived
from 'Tillamook last evening.
The British ship Clan McKenzie,
103 days from Bio Janeiro, arrived in
yesterday.
The barkentine Tarn CShanter

The lighthouse tender Manzanita

The Orenonian should chose some
other means of announcing that Port
land had at last given up its claims to
be a seaport, besides trying to inflict
such a mendacity upon a surprised
public.
Take, for instance, the case of the
Abei com on which poor Charley
Johnson was Jrowned.
The Oregonian of yesterday, says:
18S8.
Abcrcorn, British bark, total loss off
the mouth of the river. February 2.
This is a sample lie, ju3t a brick
from the wall of untruth.
The British ship Abercom, 1262,
from Marysport, England, went ashore
on the morning of January 30th, 1888,
five miles north of Damon's port, seven
miles north of tho north entrance to
Gray's harbor, (see official report in
DaiLy Astoriax of February 7th,
1S88.)
The Columbia river bar had no more
to do with it than the San Francisco
bar.
Ignorance is excusable, and deserves
only gentle rebuke, such as the origi
nal statement in Saturday's Orego
nian received in the next day's Asto
riax. But such far reaching and in
jurious falsehoods as that contained
in the two column article in yester
day's Oregonian deserve the severest
condemnation. It is ignorance, mal
ice and stupidity combined that
prompt such lying utterances, and the
editor of this paper is painfully sur
prised that the manager of the Orego
nian or whoever has charge, allowed
so damaging a calumny to appear.
Ordinary little lies may pass un
noticed, but so grave a matter calls
for prompt denial.
The OregoniavJs duty in the matter
is the duty that any respectable news
paper owes to a constituency that it
has lied to to make instant denial.
The case of the Abercom is but one.
Others occur, but space forbids fur
ther comment
The whole article is about as stupid
and cruel a cut at the commerce of
the Columbia river as anything that
has appeared in Portland, since the
famous list of alleged disasters in the
News on the 8th of September 1883.

Our oldest child, noir six years old. when
an infant six months old was attacked with
a virulent, malignant skin disease. All or

physician, who attempted to euro it; but it
spread with almost incredible rapidity,
until tho lower portion of tho littlo fellow's
Eorson, from tho middle of his back down to
is knees, was one solid rash, ugly, painful,
blotched, and malicious. We had no rest at
night, no peace by day. Finally, wo wore
advised to try tho Cuticoiu Remedies. Tho
effect was simply marvelous, In threo or
four weeks a complete euro was wrought,
leaving tho littlo follow's person as whito and
healthy as though ho had novcr been at

strong healthy child, porfoctly well, no rep
