on the roadway near the wharr. Then
a horse was secured aud the harness
attached to the rope. At first the

was soon upright. At night when the

W. Loggic, of Empire City, the gen
eral manager and vice pres
ident or the Southern Oregon
company. He is en route to
New York and Massachusetts. All
the stockholders but himself live in
the east. The company has a capital
of ;l.o(0,(XX) and aie doing much to
develop Coos county and bay. At
Empire City they have one of the
largest saw mills on the coast or Ore
gon and Washington. It has a capac
ity of 175.000 feet per day. Half of
Empire City is owned by them and
they propose to make it a big town. Mr.
Loggie said that Capt Hooper made
soundings while there this last time
and found 24 feet at low tide on the
bar. He says that section of the slate,
as well as this, is j et in its infancy and
has a fine outlook for the future.
A railroad will soon be built from
Pioseburg to Coos bay which will make
Empire City the sea port of a large
trade This company was once doing a
losing business :md the large
saw mill was closed, but since
Mr. Loggie has been superin
tendent they have been carrying
on a succeful trade, and enlarging
their scope. At present they atei
building a special railroad to convey
lumber to the bay.
Mr. Loggie was pleased to see that
Astoria was forging ahead, and hoped
on his return from New York, to see
business very lively here. He leaves
this morning on the lion Ha for Kala

Two Kaitlif.il Postal Employers.
Messrs. Emery and Burns, the mail
agents on the Portland-Astoria route,
are about as hard worked as any gov
ernment postal officials in the neigh
borhood; their duties require loug
hours, constant vigilance and unceas
ing attention. They have to make up
a good detl of the mail en route on the
steamers and deliver it to the various
towns as the boat arrives. Sick or
well there is no excuse, and the re
sponsibility always rests on their
shoulders of having everything right;
a responsibility, it may be said, that Is
faithfully assumed and carried out
with praieworlhy fidelity. Their sal
aries are in ridiculous proportion to
the amount of work done and the in
tegrity required but is in direct line
with Uncle Sam's parsimonious re
cord in this matter.

The court room of Justice May was
the scene or a litllo.excitement yester
day afternoon. The trial of Prof.
Hrowor for the alleged unjust pun
ishment of a pupil came up at 5 o'clock.
Deputy district attorney Kanaga for
the stale and Sidney Dell for the de
fendant, with a crowd of school chil
dren, were on hand. The motion was
made by the defense that the caso be
continued until Satnrday, as that
would bj the first day when Mr.
Hrower and the scholars would be
free. Some director. of the school
were anxious alo not to have any day
of the regular week broken into. Jus
tice May granted the continuance un
til Saturday. This, not without rea
son, excited attorney Kanaga. lie
claimed that such action was unjust
and that it was not allowable
to continue a criminal case
to H distant a date without
affidavits. .These, he said, were not
forthcoming, and the case ought to be
tried Wednesday. Justice May,
moved by this and other language
used by Mr. Kanaga, fined him $10 for
contempt of court The remarks were
continued and another $10 was added.
Then the attorney said he might fine
him $50 if he wanted, and walked off
out of the door. As they were already
to select a jury and the lawyer for the
slate had gone, thee'ise was left in the
lurch. It is expected that this morn

possibly the case may come before

It Is understood that she has been
sold to outside parlies, and will soon
be taken away. The sail expanse will
be unusually large for such a crart,
while a strong, well made ccnlcrboard
is ready for operation. She looks as
if she could ride a heavy sea, or make
great speed with a favorable wind.
The Hues or the boat are remarkably
good, and are a credit to her builder,
Joe Leathers. A lot of old salts stood
around her yesterday morning, com

much "joshing' on account of that

"Hello, there!" yelled a friend, as

MARINE NEWS AMD NOTES.
The Stale sails for San Francisco
to-day, and will carry mail from As
toria. The steamer Signal came down
from Portland yesterday and went to
the Sound. She was not very heavily
loaded as freight is not yet plentiful
at Portland. She has just had a new
mast put in forward and can now
carry considerable sail in addition to
the force of her engines. Her cargo
was a general one, being mostly mer
chandise from the wholesale stores.
Lake Chelan, in eastern Washing
ton, never freezes, although in latitude
4S degrees north. The reason given is
that it is so deep and the warm water
always rises from the bottom to sup
plant the cold, which goes down to
warm itself. The Indians fish in the
lake at all seasons, and uso salmon
eggs to bait with. The noble hop
pickers live high on mountain trout
while the Boston man and his frow in
the big city are wrestling with quinine
or smashing their teeth on tough steak.
Frc-h Fashion Fitiiries.
Pompadour ribbons of various widths
are sliched on evening dresses in rows
from the neck to the hem of the toilet
Shepherds' checks of one color, with
lines of black, white or red, come in
soft twilled woolens for children's
dresses.
Pretty cotton, meriuo aud challie
cloths have printed borders along ono
selvage that will work up neatly for
house gowns.
The furor for plaids this season re
ceived iis first impulse from the tartan
cloaks and gowns made for the
Duchess of Fife.
Straight sashes of three-inch padded
silk and angel sleeves of gauzo are
characteristic of a very novel house or
party dress.
Fringing of monkey fur is a cosy
looking finish for a walking jacket
It is also seen 0:1 princess dresses of
black silk and cloth.
Boat-shaped turbans have been dis
placed by the military cap made of
the dress material, with band of f nr to
match muff.
Brilliant mohairs and lustrous al
pacas come in all the new colors for
the early dresses in which to shop, go
abroad or take spring journeys to the
land of ilowers.
Any profit in the fur trade for Iho
season has come from small pieces,
such as cuffs, muffs, collars, vests and
capes. The English fashion of wear
ing fur capes in summer will doubt
less be repeated next season.
A novelty in veiling i3 a dotted net
with a Va-i Dyke lorder, below the
Ioints of which a fine fringe is woven.
So arranged as to have the points fall
over the month and fringe dangle
about the chin, not a man in a million
would be able to tell his own mothor.
Kicking babies predisposed to throat
trouble are put to sleep iu bags of

string ties about the neck, and the
novel night gown being roomy, baby
is allowed to kick :dl night if he likes,
fearless of croup, cold or catarrh.
With spring styles, slim figures will
be introduced, and fat women ordered
to wear striies, longstraight draperies
and yokes for all underskirts. Al
ready the yokes are in tho notion
stoclcs. They are made of canvas and
silk, profusely gored to fit about tho
hips smoothly, and edged with but
tons to which the petticoats can bo
bnttoued.
The new brocades from London
and Paris, to bo combined with vel
vet, cloth and bengaline, are as rich
in color and fabric as the stuffs for
upholstering furniture In the flower
patterns the leave3 are ribbed with
gold threads and copper and gold
wire for tho stems. Some of the
stripes are two inches wide, and on
white, rose, ivory and crimson grounds
vines aud creeping plants are brought
out in gold and silver decorations.
These beautiful fabrics aro used for
tabliercs and trains only.
A (Srowins Industry.
The Youujs river niil.3 keep send
in' large supplies of pulp to the city
to be carried to San Francisco. There
are many tons of it at the U. P. wharf
which will probably go down on the
next steamer. There is no reason,
judging from the reports of those who
are authority, why this business should
not increase in immense ratio. The
paper business is growing every year.
The demaud is entirely equal to the
supply. Several of tho great San
Francisco newspapers state that they
arc readv to purchase their paper on
this coast just as soon as the various
manufacturing plants are made large
enough to meet the demand they will
make. Clatsop county bas an abund
ance of new material and it has only
begun to be used. We look for a
f utifro of much developement in this
line.
OK 1NTEKEST TO WIVES.
Kiud, pitient wives, when you mistrust
As noble women sometimes must
Your lords have toyed with liquor
Apply to them this certain test,
And from their tongues the secret wrest,
For nothing could be slicker.
First let them in a manner fleet,
And oft and hurriedly repeat
These two words, Truly rural.
Then follow up with this, "The sun
blunes on sbop signs," ana in eacn run
See that they mind each plural.
If they say these without amiss
Then make them pat their tongues to
this
Aud see if 'twill detect them:
If 'Sho sells sea shells' they can say,
You can console yourselves that they
Aren't drinking to affect them.
