Cold weather enforced a vacation in
Profesor Pratt's and Miss Carnahan's
rooms in tho Court street school yes
terday. There ought be some wav to
heat that building.
"While repairing telegraph wires
near Tongue Point yesterday, Ross
Clintou received a shock that flung
him to tho ground and momentarily
deprived him of consciousness.
Tho cold weather of the week is
something unusual: nothing of the
kind lias been experienced since tho
last time we had Eimilar weather: yes
terday's keen northeast wind made a
hot stove a center of nttmr.tirm 1nrinr

The fakir Dr. Yellowstone, who
skipped his board bill and other dues,

It was just after tho railroad emplojes
had been paid and so money was free
with them. He made a big haul at

Edwin IL Elliott, for some time in the
auditor's office of the O. R. & X. com
pany and appointed ticket exchanger
to the Union Pacific in place of the
late Thomas Sebastiu, has disappeared
with $300 of the companv's money and
$150 worth of tickets.
Raker City is in a remarkable con
dition. Wonder if Astoria is like
minded. It seems that men desirous
of office in the metropolis of eastern
Washington, are very scarce. This is
phenomenal. Surely Baker City
ought to boom this spring.
Three years ago, sas the Portland
Examiner, the Pacific Postal Tele
graph company lost a reel of cable.
Last Tuesday while down bv the
steamer dock, Jeff Hayes found it
jticking out of tho mud and washed
up by the flood. Tho find is worth
83,000 to tho company.
Astoria may not have enjoyed the
cold weather of the past two days,
but the city must be thankful that it
escapes the deep snow and severe
cold combined, of eastern Oregon.
There the temperature has kept down
for a long time and the warm winds
have swept over miles and miles of
snow covered plains and mountains.
Sophia Daggett has been sued by
I. Mansnr. The plaintiff alleges that
on Nov. 1, 1S39, he rented his house in
Astoria to the defendant at the rate of
$30 ir month. Tho latter has not
paid the $90 due, nor for February up
to date. Hence tho plaintiff sues for
the full amount due with costs and dis
bursements of action. A. R. Kanaga

D. B. Cummins who is paying the
time checks issued to laborers for the
Pacific Construction Co., had a com
paratively easy time of it j esterday,
very few presenting their claims. The
Snt day there was a rush; the idea in
the minds of some seeming to be that
there was not going to be enough to
go round, but the way they are coming
now Mr. C thinks he will have to go
around and hunt them up and coax
them to come over to the office and
get their money.
The steam schooner Oertie Storey
has signed a crew of six men at San

oat for sea will leave for Copper river.
Tfee schooner is owned by the Central
Alaska Canning Co., which opened a
cannery on Copper river last year at
considerable expense, and had a very
aafiacoessful season, putting up only a
few hundred cases of salmon. It has
been decided to abandon the new can
nery, and the mission of the Gertie
Stfrry will be to transfer the ma
chinery and such stuff as can be car
ried to some place which lias not j et
bsea selected by the company. It is
said, however, that a new cannery will
be built, where the machinery will be
nsed.

The entertainment, which will be
participated in by some of the best

which the receipts will be applied,
will be well worth hearing.

SHARKS OF THE SEA.

Tho wind blew keen from the cast
across Flavors dock yesterday, and
after looking at the whito caps and
listening to the breeze whistling
through the rigging, the usual assem-
blaB0 of seafarers gathered read tho i
lire at Scotty Johnson's steveodorel
office and gravely smoked each man a
Ions pipe.
The talk drifted from the recent loss
of the Rosalind off Rogue river to the
sharks said to be sometimes seen in
that vicinity, and then to stories of
what those maneaters sometimes did
in southern latitudes.
"Speaking of sharks." said one skip

thought that ho had been so badly

Thursday, and on the following Sun- nnrriT rnrinwRnri-'raivr
day we caught a shark at our ship and UUl IT Cl RT RocfcEni
Hauled him aboard. We cut him open
and found the buttons, knife and some
of the clothfng, that enabled the men
aboard the British ship to identify the yesterday morning,
sailor that fell overboard. We cut ' In the case of Bergman & Marion

to swim away and gulp down his own
interior works. This shows the vital-1
ity of a shark. Of course he died, but
he lived to eat himself, and perhaps
be devoured by raiders of his own 1
kind.''
Some one said he would be good to
clean the beach of salmon heads, and 1
there was a pause in the conversa
tion.
Then the joungest of the group be
gan to think up what he knew about
sharks; so taking his eyes off a picture
of the latest addition to Astoria, he
said that he had sailed the
seas from his earliest jouth
and knew a great deal of sharks
on land and sea He started
out with the proposition that no
landsman can believe the shark sto-1
ries because they seem so improbable.
'The vitality and ferocitv of a shark
can never be understood uutil one
participates in the capture of one of j
tuem," said Uie narrator. Then he
told his shark stery: "Wo ierc lying

Four months ago o-day the storm
began, and with a few intermissions of
an hour or two each, has raged with
unprecedented violence ever since.
Nothing like it was ever before expe
rienced in these mountains, or any
other that wo know of. At least fifty
feet of snow has fallen. In many
places it is hundreds of feet in depth.
The sides of the mountains are over
loaded, and there Is extreme danger
from avalanches in every direction.
Last Saturday the camp was in a
high fever of fear. All day long snow-
shdes were tumbling and thundering,
bringing down immense masses of
rock and timber, and piling them op
into grotesque and fantastic mounds,
some of which were of huge dimensions.
Everj body was nervously anxious,
for disastrous results seemed imminent.
The gloomiest anticipations prevailed."
Both walls of the narrow canyon were
covered with immense banks of snow
ready to fall and entomb us, and no
one place appeared to be more secure
than another.
In the morning a terrific slide came
down from a deep gorge on the north
ern Hank of Mount Gilchrist Start
ing at a point about 3,000 feet above
tho town, it was augmented by slides
ii uui uuuiiuuut wuujuua uuui jis ptu-
portions were enormous, and with ao-'
celerated velocity it charged down the
precipitins hill like a flood of molten
silver. When it struck tho lake there
was a thundering crash of 6 foot ice,
followed by cannon-like reports on the
other side of the lake, as compressed
air escaped from blow-Jioles in the ice.
Some of these vents, however, omit
ted sounds liko the hoarse roar of a
steam fog horn with a bad cold; others
shrieked liko wicked angels on the
ragged edge of repentance and des
pair, while more seemed to howl with
demoniac glee over the wreck and ruin
that threatened us.
For several minutes tho air was
filled with angular sounds punctuated
by the cracking reports of artillery, as
the ice was rent into great cakes and
thrown in heaps along tho margin of
the lake. This diabolical fracas of
clatter and smash was followed by
silence that oppressed us like a night
mare. After a brief interval another
slide started from the southern escarp
ment of Mount Hector, on uie other
side of tho lake. As it gathered ma
terial it accumulated speed, roll
ing over and over like breakers
on a sloping shore and throwing
feathery spray hundreds of
yards ahead, until it shot out upon
the lake like a flash and lay an inert
mass of glittering white, akin to a
glacier in solidity. The sight was
weirdly and appalingly grand, so"
startling in its magnificence that the
few beholders were prompted to kneel
in adoration. It is at once awful and
sublime to seo a large slice of- the
earth in swift motion, but the sensa
tion becomes one of abject fear waen
a person realizes the infinite danger
that hovers in the track of one of
these fascinating spectacles.
To be in readiness for an emerxzeocr.

been constructed, so that the women
and children may be quickly ramoVed
to a place of safety when slides again
threaten us. There seems to be no
danger just now, but there is no telln
ing what a day may bring forth. A

quake, and gives no more waraiajf.

MARINE NEWS AND NOTES.
The Corwin went to sea yesterday.
The Bam ib e came' in yesterday
from Vancouver.
The City of Kingston? the new
steamer of the Fugat Sound and
Alaska Co., arrived at Port Townsend
last Tuesday.
The two sealers, Walter L. llich.ol
San Francisco and the Sea Lien
of Victoria werespoken off the harbor
to-day by the pilot boat Governor
Moody. Tho JiioJi reported all well,
and the Sea Lion said it had onboard
40 skins.
The AUiuwe got in lato last night
from Gray's harbor. Although it
was quite dark when she reached the
bar, Captain Petersen is so good, a
sailor that he didn't mind the time of
day, but came right in and landed
safely ht the dock by 930. The
steamer brought n number of passen
gers from tho Harbor.
Tho Oberon camq down from Port
land yesterday afternoon. When she
arrived off the front of tho city in tow
of tho Willamette Chief, she went
down below the River Bollock? to
turn "around. The tide was beginning
to ebb, aad the wind was blowing
hard towards tho west As a result,
she got down too far and partially"
grounded. Af tefr somd pushing and
turning she was got off and safely
moored. If she had thrown out her
anchor in 0e first place, as did the
Lorton, she' would have escaped this
scraping. The Oberon will take on
GOO sacks of wheat at the Union Pa
cific wharf. I '
The Loiton came down from Porlj-f
land yesterday. She has. on boar
2,020 tons of wheat and will take 250
bushels more from Portland by light
erage. Capt Steel has been into the
Columbia river thirteen times, aad
about eighteen times in all to this
coast The Lortori? which, he now
commands, is a comparatively new
vessel, being built about two years
ago. She has an iron frame and sides.
Her deck plank are four inches thick.
The captain said he never wanted to
strike Portland again during a freshet
when he reached that city it snowed
four days, then rained as many, after
which came the flood. He will remain
here a few bays to put in the final
part of the cargo, and hoping to hear
that the cargo is sold before sailing.
If no instructions are received he will
sail to Queenstown for orders. The t
crew will be filled out here.
