Narrow Escape From Suffocation.
MarenbamYimDiiseii, wife and
child had an unpleasant experience
last Monday night and one that but
for prompt action might havo hud
most serious ending. While about re
tiring, Mrs. Van Dusen was taken sud
denly with a choking sensation in her
throat and fell to the floor in an un
conscious condition. -Her husband, a
moment after, was seized the same
way, ana tnen their little son, Arthur,
was attacked. Mr. Van Dusen,
though almost asphyxiated, summoned
strength enough to secure a
physician. On their return to
the house Mrs. Tan Dusen and the
child were still in a dead faint They
were restored to consciousness after
some difficulty and then the cause of
the strange attack was looked for. It
was finally ascertained that a base
burner furnace had emitted a deadlv
gas that gave no notice of its presence,
but had occasioned the sudden chok
ing of all three of tho occupauts of the
room. It was a narrow escape, and
but for tho prompt action of Mr. Van
Dusen, -might have resulted fatallv.
He is still suffering from the effects of
the deadly inhalation.

Providing For Numbering City Buildings.
At next Tuesday's regular meeting
of the city council, an ordinance will
be introduced providing for a uniform
system of numbering buildings in As
toria, by placing on the door or frame
of the main entrance the number as
signed thereto; the number to be
painted on tho door or on metal or
glass affixed to the door, or a metallic
figure to bo used at the option of the
owner.
InMcClure's and Olney's Astoria,
the numbers are to run from 2 to 234.
In Shively's Astoria, from 240 to 434.
The numbering is to be done by June
1st, 1890. The idea of numbering the
houses has been advocated for several
years, and if this ordinance pass, the
plan can be given a practical trial.
Jloving From Corvallts M Sew York.
In a letter received by J. H. Mansell
yesterday from A. A. Schenck, of Cor

Astoria real estate, he informs him that
ne lias been offered and has accepted
the position of chief assistant engineer
on the New York Central !t Hudson
River R. R. and leaves Corvallis for
New York to-day.
Mr. Schenck had resigned his posi
tion as chief engineer on the Oregon
Pacific R. R., and had intended to
make Astoria his future home aud de
vote his time to the improvement of
his property, but was induced to ac
cept the responsible position offered
him. He expresses liimsnlf n? linrma
unbounded confidence in the future of
Astoria, and will lose no opportunity
of furthering its interests while resid
ing in New York.

Yesterday a warrant was issued for
the arrest of John Hull on complaint
of Thomas Graves that five dollars
was stolen from him bv tho former
It is said that in paying'for drinks in
waves saloon a gold piece was given
and when Hull looked at the p.1inm
he claimed that it was not right, as he
had put down a ten, but Graves in
sisted it was only a five, and placed on
the counter the piece he had received.
Hull snatched the coin and ran out
hence the complaint It is a question
of veracity between the two men, or n
misunderstanding, and Hull im
proved the opportunity to get what ho
claimed was due him. It will, prob
ably be settled amicably.
A Creditable Home Production.
The supervisor of census for this
district has received many applications
from those who wish to be enxunera
tors, aud a large number of them are
evidently from men who think they
will havo an easy time at tho ex
pense of the government Those who
accept a position under this impression
will find in June that they have been
sadly mistaken. Under the present
law any enumerator who has accepted
an appointment is compelled to finish
his work, and if he refuses to do so
without giving a reason satisfactory
to the superintendent, he may be fined
and imprisoned. Ten years ago mauy
who counted on an easy job were ap.
palled when they received their book
of instructions, and over 5,000 of them
resigned.
The census is to be taken between
June 1 aud June 15. Tho great body
of enumerators will be paid as follews:
For every living person, 2 cents; for
every death, 3 cents; for every firm. 15
cents; for every factory, 20 cents; for
each veteran or veteran's widow, 5
cents.
Every person is compelled to an
swer the questions or pay a fine of
S100. An improvement this year over
the former methods of taking the cen
sus has been the distribution, in ad
vance, of several millions of family
schedules, so that the enumerator at
many points will find it already filled,
and so will be greatly facilitated in his
work.
It is a curious fact, as shown by tho
last census, and in fact by all, that
while there are porhaps 1,500,000
women of tho ago of 29,39, or 49, there
will only be about 60,000 of the age of
30 or 40 or 50. The inference is irre
sistiblethey do not like to acknowl
edge having turned tho corner of a
decade. It would, of course, bo un
reasonable to presume that once in '
every ten years there is such an alarm
ing decrease in tho birth of girl babies.
Another difficulty which the enu
merators will encounter is the collec
tion of statistics of what are called tho
defective classes those who are deaf,
blind, and idiots. Ten years ago the
question was put beforo the head of a
family: "Are there any deaf, dumb,
idiots, or blind in your house?" This
was often construed as offensive, aud
tended to increase tho difficulty in as-
cortaining the true facts. This year
the enumerators havo all been in
structed to ask at each heuse:
"Is the speech all right, is the
hearing perfect, is the mind correct,
can everybody see?" The census, too,
instead of calling these classes "de
pendent, defective and delinquent,"
will call them "special" and will not
class them with criminals.
An especial feature of the census
will be a separate enumeration of vet
erans and their widows, which of itself
is a gigantic task, but it is hoped the
result will bo a great aid to tho pen
sion bureau.
The chief item of expense, of course,
is tho pay of tho enumerators, wluch
in 1890 exceeded 63,000,000, and this
year will doubtless be more than SG.-
000,000. Tho appropriation made for
the eleventh census is 5,400,000,
aside from the Sl.500,000 appropriated
for printing, but it is estimated that
2,000,000 more will bo needed to com
plete the work.
A Word of Explanation.
Inasmuch as some dissatisfaction
has lately been expressed bv sub
scribers about the lateness of the
hour at which The Mousing AsroEr
an has sometimes been delivered, I
wish to say once for all, that tho pa
per, in every instance, has been deliv
ered just as soon as it was possible to
do it, after it camo from the press.
On account of the excellent tele
graphic reports which Tnn Astorian
is giving its readers and the de
sire of the proprietors to give tho
very latest news, it sometime happens
that the paper goes to press a littlo
later than usual. In such cases it
comes into my hands later iu the
morning. I make this statement of
facts to show that I am not at fault
iu tno matter. Reasonable people J
m ut uApeci, me to uenver tne
per before it comas from the press.
Respectfully,
J. A. Rannelis.

just been made by the Astoria Iron
Works. It is a steel boiler, 60 inches
in diameter, 16 feet in length and con
tains 102 three-inch tubes. The shell
is o steel, three-eighths of an inch in
thickness, and the heads are of seven
sixteenths steel. It has a capacity of
one hundred horse power, aud was on
trial Tuesday night The trial was
perfectly satisfactory, and it will now
be used exclusively and the two small
er boilers will be retired. It is well
made in every particular, and is a

The World published at Vaneonvnr.
British Columbia, not Vnncnnwr
Wash., is entitled to the fish-story belt.
It tells of a run of salmon on the
Cayoosh creek so thick that thev wrn
crowded upon the bank until th'ey lay
mere a iooc ueep. jjut that is only bv
way of introduction to the fact that
the pleutitude of salmon and tho
scarcity of herbage developed in the
cattle of the neighborhood an appetite
for fish. Some of them ate salmon
with such relish that when the
bunch-grass appeared the cattle
showed a preference for the fish.
And then they became dainty in their
piscatorial appetite. The salmon on
the shore became too dry for them,
and they would walk into the stream
ana select tho plump ones, and seemed
to enjoy their wriggling as they made
the descent into the bovine stomach.
This is from a reliable resident, who
challenges doubters to visit the creek
and see for theselves. The taste of
the milk is not made fishy, but this
diet must give the butter a rich color.
