Fish commissioner Reed came down from Portland yesterday, where he has been suggesting to some of the fish dealers the propriety of observing the close season in the matter of purchas ing salmon. They profess their in ability to distinguish between salmon and steel heads. Any one, though, who ever caught them in a gill net can tell the difference. Hold 'em up by the tail. If they slip through the hand they're chinook salmon; if they don't, they're steel heads. The telegraphed list of passengers on the San Francisco steamers to ar rive, should be complete.

The steamer on board of which Mjtg gie Mitchell and her company had come up from San Francicco was de tained here so long on Tuesday morn ing, discharging freight that it did not arrive at Portland until 830 v. :j. But the large audience at the Marqnam were advised of the cause of the delay and waited patiently until xfiio wneu 1 the performance began, and "Fanchon" w;is presented. Maggie Mitchell is famons in that piece, and is said to present it with sill the freshness and interest or youth, though the writer remembers having seen her in Ford's theater, Washington in 1803. twenty seven vears ago. Major Haudbury opened bills on the 10th, for furnishing poles and bntsh for fascines for use in con st nicting the jetty at the mouth of the river. The bills were per cord for the fas cenes, and per pole for the poles, and were as follews: C. P. Church, Portland, 23K cents per pole, for 9,000 poles, and $2.81 per cord for 5,000 cords; an aggregate of 10,337.50. Warren Ac Wright, Astoria, 30 cents per polo and S3.18 per cord; an aggre gate of S18,GO0. Jno. Shephard, Portland, 22 lj cents per pole, and $2.19 per cord an aggre gate of $14,497.50. His bid was con ditional upon the government doing the towing from the channel of the Columbia river. Thos. P. Randall, Oregon City, 27 cents a pole, and $2.98 a cord; an ag gregate of $17,330. His bid c;ime in two hours loo late. There really were but the two first bids to be considered, both of which were, under the circumstances, very low. The balance of the appropriation available after deducting all outstand ing liabilities, is $75,000. Preparation goes on all along the line, and. a large force of men will be put on after the 1st of next month. IT IS A BIG IDEA. A Scheme to Change the Course Of Frascr River. REAL ESTATE TRANSFERS. MARCH 12. As Filed la The Connty Kceorder's Office Yesterday. In conversation with an old Cariboo pioneer, says the New Westminster Truth, some points were obtained in reference to a scheme that, were it consummated, would, it is contended, prove of incalculable benefit to this section in particular and the whole province in general. It is nothing more or less than the deflection of the body of water forming the head of the Fraser river from its southwest ern course to a direct northern course and turning it into the Arctic instead of the Pacific ocean. On the summit off the Rockies, as all Cariboo miners k'now, there is but a short distance between the sources of four great rivers, whose waters flow to three of the cardinal jioints of the comnass. These are the Fraser, flow ing into Pitget sound; the Columbia, i flowing into tho Pacific ocean at As toria; the Missonri, emptying into the Mississippi, thence to the Gulf of Mex ico, and tfie Peace river, whose course ' is directly north to the Arctic ocean. The headwaters of two of these streams (the Fraser ;md the contain Rachel and B. C. Kindred to Ethel Graves, lot 21, blkl9, first addition to Kindred Park S Andrew Young mid Johanna Young to P. N.

This may sound ukc ji chimerical scheme, but many incline to the opinion that it is fcjisible, be cause all Cariboo miners, prospectors and explorers interviewed :ire satisfied that the results to be obtained, conld the scheme be carried out, would ten times over pay its costs.

He yias started in fishing for seals with a net having a mesh a foot square and made of coarse cotton cord. He is not catching many at present; as there are but few in the river, but he manages to get two or three a day. Each seal yielrs about five gallons of oil, worth about 10 cents per gallon, and at least one skin. By and by, when the smelt arc running, the seals rill come up by the hundred and iheu, he may catch more than he will know what to do with.

Foundry and Smelting Work. Yesterday a call was made at the new foundry and smelting works at the head of Second street, just below the Union Pacific wharf, where ATessrs. Griffith A: Taylor were supervising the completion of their works. The fur nace, blower and engine are in posi tion and melting will commence in a day or two. Moldcis were at work and already have a number of molds ready for casting sash weights, which will be the principal product of the foundry. Their material used is scrap tin, and is fished up from the river, where it has been thrown out of the canneries. This material is used in only a very few cities iu the United States, and The Astoriak is glad the gentlemen have seen fit to locate here where the material is abundant for a long timo to come.
