This is steamer day, and the Oregon

San Fniuefcco are expected .hero this
iiKiruing.
The skies were Italian yesterday in
their blneness and the air was like vel
vet to the cheek, so soft and balmy
from the ocean.
The new electric light poles may be
strong but they arc not pretty. The
one in front of the office contrasts with
the athctic door.

smaller than the others, and more at
tractiveiu npiearauce.
Tho two pictures iu The Astoriax
office, "Before the Boom" and "After
the Boom,,' have caused many a hun
dred hearty laughs, and continue to
excite the risibilities of all who see
them.
From the number of traps being

If there is any truth in the old say
iug that when it rains while the sun is
sliming "the devil is whipping his
wife," then severely the old prince of

The synopsis of the city's fiuances

Portland cannot help beiug respect
ful to Astoria, for it appears that the
total value of the real estate transfers
iu Multnomah county this year from
Januarv 1st to March 17th, inclusive,
was $,382,877.86, while in Clatsop
for the same time it was $1,113,957, or
nearly half as much.
Frank S. Aikawa, of Port Simpson,
B. &, reports a population of 800 at
that port, mostly Indians, a Hudson

not far distant future, by the onward
march of time.
The children of the public schools
had a merry time yesterday afternoon
at Liberty hall, where they were en
tertained with a sleight of hand per
formance by a traveling magician.
Every child paid fifteen cents admis
sion, saw the show and received a
package of candy, many of which con
tained a nickel or a dime. They were
happy little kids as they came out
Some of Ihe young bloods who were
out on a lark last night and had evi

star was on hand however, and com
pelled the young men to replace the
boxes to their original position.
Alex. Anderson who had imbibed
too much tanglefoot, which liberated
his tongue, temporarily increased his
capacity and inclination to be noisy,
and rendered him a victim to a knight

to bo the case.
The Astoria Amateur dnim corps
succeeded at their 17th of Ireland ball,
in paying all expenses, and having
enough for their uniforms and a few
dollars over. Tneir expenses were
$61.50: their uniforms cost them $114,
and their receipts were a little more
than the total of these sums. Tho
boys desire, through The Astoriax
to return their hearty thanks for tho
patronage so generously accorded
them by the public.
Mutton, like other fresh meat still
continues dear. A prominent dealer
in meats said to an Astoriax reporter
last evening, "mutton is very scarce.
I pay 5 cents a pound, live weight
for sheep in Portland. These sheep
come from eastern Oregon. The
sheep are scarce throughout the state,
for many of them have been shipped
east A sheep that weighs 96 pounds
gross, will net only 42 pounds. It
costs 25 cents apiece to bring the I
sheop down from Portland. So you
see that by tho time a sheep is ready
for tho butcher's block, it has cost
123 cents a pound." This is why the
butchers ask 15 cents a pound for
mutton at present There doesn't
appear to be much in it at that price.
A good story is told of Colonel De
Tiere. It seems that about ten years
ago, when the Chronicle was running
in Seattle, the colonel was spending a
few pleasant hours in that city, unem
barrassed by cares other than how to
amuse himself, and the city editor of
tho paper requested him to attend a
lecture, (comps. furnished,) and take
notes, and report The genial am
ateur reporter did attend and took all
the notes the lecturer had in his
elaborate silk hat, The result was
that the Chronicle had a veroatim re
port of a lecture which was never de
livered, as the lecturer could not lec
ture without his notes, which the col
onel, in obedience to instructions, had
deftly secured. The colonel lost his
job the iiext day as the city editor
thought ho was entirely too en
terprising. J. E. Hunsicker, who was in Los
Angeles at the time of tho .boom, tells
of a great advertising fake that was
successfully worked. A couple of
young fellows started the Real Estate
Journal. The Journal was to find
its way from Sitka to Palestine.
Every railroad train and hotel in the
land were to be supplied with a glow
ing account of Los Angeles. The pa
per charged an excessive amount for
advertising, but when, each Wednes
day morning, it was found on tho
brokers1 table it was so bright and
such a neat specimen of typographical
work that he was satisfied. Finally a
row occurred in the Journal office
and it was divulged that only two
hundred copies had been issued and
that the brokers had been nearly the
only subscribers. The editors skipped
out between two days, for one of the
brokers, renowned for his sagacity, de
clared unmistakably that he did not
believe that the Journal was helping
him much.

THE JACKSON MYSTERY.
No Cl to the MiJwiBg Civil Engineer.
The case ol E E Jackson is a
singular one. Not a trace of him has
been secured since he went on board
the Telephone for Portland on tho 8th
inBt. He had been doing some plat
ting for Van Dusen Bros., and wanted
to see the surveys in surveyor-general
Tavlor's office in Portland. But he
never reached there. A telegram re
ceived from Mr. Taylor says he has
not appeared there. A thorough
search and inquiry at the business
firms in Portland where he was known
and usually called, elicited only one
reply: "He hasn't been here."
It is very singular. The supposition
is a plausible one that he never reached
Portland. What adds to the singular
affair is that he is reported to be in no
way embarrassed financially, and his
domestic relations were of the pleas
antest character. He was exceedingly
fond of his wife, and that lady says
she is as much at n loss as anyone else
to account for his mysterious disap
pearance. H RIXE NEWS ASD NOTES.
Tho S. V. Heed brought down a
goodly number of passengers last
evening, and a fair amount of freight
The three masted schooner Esther
Buhne arrived in port yesterday from
Eureka, California, with redwood lum
ber for Portland.
The repairs to the shaft of the Man-
zanita have been completed, and it
will be restored to its place to-day,
and tho staunch steamer made ready
for duty again.

Review or the Real Estate Market.
The real estate transfers yesterday
were only eight in number, and as tho
considerations were small in each case
tho total amount was only Sl,920. The
amount, however, for the 77 days of
thisvearis $1,115,877, or an average
of $14,491 per day. Taking out the 11
Sundays during which the county
clerk's" office was closed it leaves 66
days in which deeds were left for rec
ord, and that makes the daily average
of real estate transfers this year, S16,
907, which is certainly a good showing
as to the number of lots sold, for thoy
are all at low prices, and not liko the
fancy prices of southern California
during the boom days.
Then, too, it must be remembered
that this has been an unusually stormy
winter, and during our dullest season.
It is safe to predict large sales of land
during the spring and summer, and
those who wait for lots to be cheaper
will wait in vain. Buy now, for it is a
good time, and if you wait for any desired-
property, you will surely pay
more for it in the future than you
would have to pay now.

Shoalwater Bny.
Shoalwater bay was first settled in
1851 by a company of oystermen, who
went there for the oysters which ex
isted there in great quantities. A
company of six men purchased a
schooner in San Francisco named
Robert Brwa. The names of the men
were Mark "NVinant, John S. Morgan,
Richard Milward, Frank Garretson,
Alexander Hanseu and another whoso
name 1 have forgotten, but I think it
was Tyson. They started for tho bay
in the winter season, and after a hard
passage arrived in safety. The cap
tain, whose name was Terry, had some
misunderstanding with the cook, and
whether nrompted by spite or some
other motive, he set fire to the vessel
one night when they had all
gone to bed, and after he had
administered all the laudanum
there was on board to them in
their tea, and made his escape in the
yawl boat first throwing all the buck
ets overboard so if they should wake
they would have no moans of putting
out the fire. Tho only white man in
the place wa3 au old man by the
name of McOarty who was living with
the Indians, and who when he saw
the vessel on fire, sent off two Indians
to awake the crew, this the Indians
could not succeed in doing, and so he
went himself and 'finally, after great
effort succeeded in arousing them, bj
which time the vessel was in flames
and they could save nothing except
what was in the cabin, among which
was a spare jib, which they took
ashore and used for a tent, thus mak
ing the first settlement, which they
named Bruceville, afterwards changed
by the legislature to Bruceport J. J.

were also shown with stripes of va
rious colors running horizon
tally up tho back and sides,
leaving an inch or two of tho
plain black on the front of the stock
ing. This is a much prettier effect
than where the stripes are in front,
and is much newer. Tho newest fad
in corsets are those made of ooz calf,
boneless, steelless and seamless. They
are pinked at top and bottom, aud are

great favorites.
The Alaska Canneries.
From appearances tho coming sea
son promises to be a very busy one in
Alaska. Last year thero were thirty
six canneries in operation there, and
although the returns were not as large
as had been satisfactory to the owners,
this year the thirty-six canneries will
be again in operation, and in addition
two new ones will be started. The
agents of the Alaska steamship line
also say that tho indications are very
favorable for a wonderful increase to
the development or tho territory, and
in anticipation propose to make an
especial effort to encourage it
Last season seventy vessels were em
ployed in the traffic between this port
and the canneries and fisheries in
Alaska, and fully 1,500 sailors and fish
ermen were transferred from here to
the northern waters. This year this
number will iu all likelihood bo ex
ceeded. This drainage of seamen from
this port presents a very important
problem for solution by tho owners
and captains of deep water vessels. A
canvass by the Coast Seamen's
union, made yesterday, shows that
150 sailors and 200 fishermen, avail
able for Alaska, were in the city. A
very large number have already been
engaged and will sail as tho ships
leave port Yesterday the schooner
Dashing Hrace, chnrtered by Lyndo
& Hough, left for Sandy Point, Alaska,
carrying materials for the new cannery
to bo erected there. Tho charterers
were obliged to pay S40 a month to

An Excerpt From a Portland Paper.
What is wanted is cheap freight,
and this can only bo had by sending it
through without rehandling from
Eastern Oregon and "Washington
points to and from Portland, or from
these points to and from tho sea; that
is. to Astoria.
Portland does not want the earth.
Eastern Oregon is entitled to her share
of good things. As the citizens of that
section propose to build a railroad
through Washington to a point oppo
site Astoria, they might as well have
cheap river means of transportation
ditto. Now that Oregon and Wash
ington have been opened up by rail
roads, open up the whole country
thus and improve nil the rivers and
harbors. Portland Examiner, Mar.

Scaly Skin Diseases
TsorlaalM S years, covering face, head
and entire body with white scabs. Skin
red, itchy and bleeding. Hair all gone.
Spent hundreds of dollars. Pronounced
incurable. Cured byCutieuraBcmedics
Cured by Cuticura
My disease (psoriasis) first broke out on
my left cheek, spreading across my nose and
almost covering my face.. It raa into ray
eyes and my physician was afraid I would
lose my eyesight altogether. It spread all
over my head and my hair all fell out, until
I was entirely bald-beaded; it then broke
out on my arms and shoulder,untll my arras
were just one sore. It covered my entire
body, mv face, head and shoulders being the
worst. The white scabs fell constantly from
my head, shoulders and arms; the skin
would thicken and be red and very itchy,
aud would crack and bleed if scratched.
After spending maav hundred? of dollars 1
was pronounced incurable. I heard of the
Cuticura Remedies, and after using two
bottles Cuticura Besolvxt I couu see
a change ; and alter I had taken four bottles
I was almost cured ; and when I had used
six bottles of Cuticura Resolvent and
one box of Cuuicura, and one rake of Cut
icura Soap. I was cured of the dreadful
disease from which I had suffered for five
year. I thought the disease would leave a
very deep scar, but the Cuticuba Reme
dies cured it without any scars. I cannot
exutess with a pen what 1 suffered bofore
using the Curicun Remedies. They
saved my life, and I Telt it my duty to rec
