Two real estate meu aud a surveyor went up Young's river yesterday, 'in tending to locate a claim. There are not many chances open, but there is always room for one more. It isn't . characteristic or real estate men to get left, so presume they were suc cessful. One real estate dealer remarked yesterda that women were investing in large numbers in Astoria realty. Many cases where the husbands are slow to appreciate the opportunities the wives are going ahead. Servant girls, too, are buying their lots on the installment plan. The Willamette is op a tear. The bridge at Salem has been carried away, millions of logs have lieen torn from their Kvnns by the rushing flood, the city front of Portland is under water, nd great damage is reorted. The water is higher than it has been be fore twenty years. Cw P. Huntiugton recently made the statement to a gentleman with whom lie was conversing, that he never got the worst of any bargain or business he had ei undertaken. Mr. Hunting ton aptears to have forgotten at the moment his investment ofo00,000 in the New York Stur. There are several surveyors and iinnVr claim leators in town who are vety resilss over the continued rains. They have leen waiiing for two weeks to get out into the country. Some fetve tried, but most have come back sfter exjeriencing a day or two of the sacancst kind or weather. Chief of police Barry has gone to Tscomr, wliere the freedom of the city has been extended to him. It awy be that he may find Rainey suf fering from enlargement of the heart H so, Baincy may fork over that $200 still Hudrawdownable since the sports Tid pastimes of last September. Gnu&bling is chronic now. The weather causes this. As the condition o! ttSkirs is much worse in many other places mid the whole coast is suffering, kseesas as if the best way is to put f with -what we havo and be thank fu tint k isn't any more severe.

They needed it It was impossible in many places lo cross from sidewalk to sidewalk with out sinking in the worn-off wood and dirt over one's rubbers. The expense of keeping the streets free from refuse in the city is not great, and hence they should not be allowed to get m bad condition. In the "Washington legislature has been introduced a memorial for the improvement of the Columbia river, and lo establish a port of entry at Portugese Point, in Pacific county. It recites that all the improvements that have been made heretofore have benefited the Oregon side. Therefore it is praving that $100,000 be appro priated for the clearance of the north branch of the Columbia river ia that vicinity on Gray's bay. It is not probable says ilie, Orojon uin, that the Hush on her way up the coast came within sight or the Colum bia river. A look-out was kept for her by a pilot vessel, but she never eanie in sight. Vessels were passing in and out every day, but there was no report of the h'ush.

Ihihtn writing irom South America, details her experience in crossing the Carribean s-a, and says there is one utterance that is identical in English, French, German, Spanish, and in fact all known languages, and is, moreowr, given always with the rising inflection and more or less in tensity of feeling. This basic word iu relation to which the natives of every clime stand on a common rooting speedily follows the firt indications of a scn-sickmtss and is pronounced u-r r a o-o-o-o-p. Since the wind and rain have formed a business partnership marine birds are soaring landward; yesterday a pelican made his or her or its appear ance. The pelican is about as well fixed in the way of underlip as any thing seen here lately, and 1ms an ap petite that would make a dyspeptic green with envy. If the Portland city council had to support a pelican in the Portland park councilman Gerdes would kick worse than he did over the poor little seal's breakfast When incomes to fish, a pelican can double discount a young seal. It is not surprising that a man will express himself strongly on the con dition o the mail system. Yesterday a man in this city received an im Iortant business communication from San Francisco, dated January 11, which was a matter of thousands of dollars. By the same mail came an other letter dated the 80th, which said that after waiting a long lime hoping it) hear from him, the parlies had completed the transaction with an other man. Hence the former is out of profit or gain he deserved just be causcfthe authorities would not spend a few dollars extra to forward delayed mails. A Cathlamet storekeeper sold a young lady some matches the other day. After taking them home and Irving for an hour and a half to light one. she sent her little brother back to I ho store with the matches and told him to tell the merchant that they were no good. The merchant put his foot up on a box and scratched match after match 'along his trousers, each match burn ing. He told the boy that they were all right The lad said if he thought his sister w:is coming up town to scratch a match on his trousers every time she wanted adight, he was ofl" his base. Boiler skating is a peculiar sport. Once very popular, it now has some enthusiastic adherents. It seems like a warping of nature, but yet often just as pleasurable as skimming lightly over the hard ice. If it could he devoid of the harsh, grat ing noise, it wonld lose much that impresses one as artificial. It does ofier a chance for light, skill ful motion. A glance into the opera house bust evening showed abont fortv young people gliding about with astonishing rapidity.

Have yon given out any twine yet?" asked a reporter yesterday of a prom inent canner. "No,"' was the reply, " haven't even given orders for the purchase of twine yet, nor have I a single can made; nor any tin con tracted for. "Well, what are you do ing for "OO?" 4Tust waiting,' was the answer. I think that the outcome of the whole thing will be no fishing at all iu April, and mighty little in May. 1 don't look for much activity in the salmon calchiug business before the latter part, of May, or the first of .1 une. 'Salmon report; are. am thing but encouraging. Our San Francisco agents write that there is a big w:ul of salmon still there, part Columbia river and part Alaska, in which thero is no movement" The deep snow means high water in the lower Columbia next summer. This, while disastrous to gill nets in April, will be more favorable to gill net fishermen in May and June than to seines or traps. For Sale.

Tie Nine Men Killed and Eighteen WonnM Near tie Cascade Loots. TituMKxnocs L.tyn slides. A. terrible railway accident, in which eight men were killed outright and nineteen were wounded, occurred on the line of Hie Union Pacific a short distance from the Cascade Locks between 9 aud 10 o'clock Sunday morning. Acaboose filled with about thirty railway hands fell through a small trestle bridge near Williams's fishery, with the fearful loss of life as staled. All telegraphic communication with the east being cut olF, the details of this terrible disaster were furnished yesterday's Uregonian by Capt H. C. Coe, of the steamer llra.sco, who walked nearly the entire distance from the locks to Portland. The construction train bringing the special from LaGrande arrived at the locks shortly after 1) o'clock in the morning. It proceeded ou its way un til it reached the bridge near the fish ery, when a large slide on the other side showed that it was unnecessary to go further. The special accordingly was taken back to the locks, aud the construction started out again to clear away the slide. The train was made up of the engine and tender and one caboose. Iu the caboose were about thirty men with their shovels, pick axes and other tools usually employed in clearing away wrecks or land slides. As the bridge had been inspected only about half an hour before, it was thought to be perfectly safe. The engine had passed a little be yond the center of the bridge when two bents gave way, letting the ca- b,Mse down into the creek some 15 feet below. The caboose struck on end and the tender came after, fajliug into the gulch alongside of it, but the engine fortunately crossed the gap in safety. It v.is found thai eight men had been killed outright, while nineteen were seriously wounded. One oT the wounded died so.ui aftr being taken to the locks, aud it Is thought that the injuries or several more are fatal. Among the dead are Matthews, the section b. at Vinita and the section foreman from The Dalles. The names of all the men could not lie learned. Among those seriously injured are Pat Glenn, theroadmaster;"Frenchy," the conductor, and Ed Seeley, a brake man, t As the culmose struck bottom all of the men piled up into a jam at the ower end. 1 1 was an imprisoned mass of humanity, some dead, some dying, and others trying with might and main to extricate themselves from their perilous plight To add lo the conTusion and horror of the .situation, shovels, pickaxes and pieces of wood were mixed iu with the struggling mass of humanity. Soon the agonizing cries of the living and the groans of the dying brought assistance, and everything possible was done to clear away the wreck. The people at the locks lent willing hands; the living were liberated, and the dead were taken out and tenderly laid in places of safely until the bodies could be rer moved. 11 was an awful sight, and one that will long linger in the mem ories of thoe who witnessed it As soon as news of the accident reached The Dalles a relief train, with Drs. Logan, Doano and Binehardt, was sent out The train left The Dalles at 11 o'clock, but owing lo the many landslides and washouts encoun tered ou the way it did not reach Cas cade Locks until about six o'clock in the evening. Upon their arrival the physicians did everything in their power to alleviate the suffering of the injured. Some of those injured have broken legs, others broken arms and still others serious scalp wounds and cuts about the body. There are eight bodies in a small room at the Locks, while the remains of one unfortunate victim are yet wedged in under the caboose. The wife of Matthews, one of the killed, was taken on board of the spe cial relief train at Vinita. She was told that her husband wjis seriously injured, as it was thought that the news of his death would prove too much Tor her. "When she learned the truth, and the whole trutli, her grief was too deep for utterance. She was completely prostrated, and friends had to lake her away from the dead room. Captain Coe, having walked the en tire distance from the loclcs to Fair view", was able to size up the extent of the damage along the line of the rail way from washouts and landslides. He started out about 7 o'clock Mon day morning with W. L. Weatherred, one or the passengers on the eat IkhuhI train, which left Portland Saturday, and is now at Dodson. The track, he said, is the worst he ever saw. He counted fifty-four landslides and washouts between the locks and Troutdale, some of them lxmiEr so ex tensive that it Is doubtful whether the railway company will ever make the repairs. It may lie cheaper for them to build the track around some of the larger landslides. At a point about seven or eight miles below Bonne ville a whole mountain has come down a distance or two or three thousand feet, 'covering the track lo a depth of nearly eighty feet It is a solid mass nearly GOO feet long and comixised almost of rock alone. Captain Coe is of the opinion that the mil way company will never attempt to move this obstruction. In a great many other places the two pedestrians were obliged to walk nearly down to the river to avoid slides and wash outs. The gentle ehinook has struck the country about the locks and The Dalles, and the Columbia is rising more inpidly than it has ever been known to rise before. Captain Coe was told that it rose twenty feet iu twenty four hours at Booster Bock, and while he believes this lo be an ex aggerated estimate, he says that the rise is simply unprecedented. He has been on the Columbia a great many years, and nevr during all his expe rience ha3 he known the river lo rise so rapidly. New England mince meat by the pound at Thompson & Hoss'. ('rami Ball.

The Secretary of the Navy Roxsted in The Ruiiw or lli Residence. Not since the killing of Secretary Upshur by the bursting of a camion many years ago on the steamer Prihci Ion, has so dreadful a casualty licfallcn a member of the cabinet, as the horrible death or Benjamin F. Tracy, secretary of the navy, by being burned, in the destruction of his dwell ing house by fire, at "Washington, D. C, last Monday. Details are meager, all that is known isthatthesecretary's house was destroyed by fire at an early hour that morning, that he was burned to death and several members of his family were seriously injured by the ilames, possibly fatally. General Tracy was a native of New York, and was' sixty years of age. He was an able lawyer, and less than eleven months ago was appointed secretary or the navy by President Harrison, at the lime of the formation or the cabinet.

'What is it that supports that gaug'r" is the first question that rises to the lips on looking at the motley crew that go shrieking through the streets calling themselves ''The Sal vation Army." Notice to-night, or any night the happy looking old man who bangs the big drum. That is the man who supports the Salvation Army in As toria Were it not for him the outfit wouldn't last a week. As it is, they have been here over two years. His name is Beckwith, he works for E. W. Tallent and Is honest, sober, faithful aud industrious. When the gang slurck the town Beckwith became infatuated with Jhem. He had abont 1,800 in the bank, and blew that in, and besides that all that he can earn. It's his money and he has a right to spend it as he sees fit He is enthusi astic, and as long as he can earn a dollar the Salvation army will get six bits of it In Xo. One's Parlor. The lioys of Astoria No. Ones, had great fun last Monday night, initiating a new member. He was duly sworn lo uphold the Hag, then his weight was tested, in accordance with section 99, article -17 revised rules of the de partment, and he was then given the skyfngle degree, which occasioned considerable hilarity on the front seats. The candidate now considers himself a full-iledged member.

A versatile resident of this city now conies to the front with a great scheme for locomotion.
