A Card.
March27, 1890.
Editor -Asteriak: Will you be
kind enough to have these few lines
printed.
There has been a mystery floating
around Astoria in regard to my mind
on Christian science. I will just tell
the truth. This has been no credit to
my family. I write this to satisfy my
church and a few of my friends. Let
mo say this, to the ministers of the
gespel: When they hear of such being
the case, please -visit those and not go
by hearsay. It is their duty to do so
and not leave the Christian science to
have the whole say. I am a mother and
want justice as amother ought to have.
I have been well one year but not
from the Christian science. Further
more they lay all blame to me in re
gard to Christian science which is not
doing me justice.
My doors are always open to any of
my church and my intentions are to be
lieve in my church and that only.
Yours Respectfully,
Mbs. F. Sheruak.

The Only Steel Ship Built and Owned in
America.
The arrival at Astoria on Tuesday
of one of the finest American ships
suggested the publication of some
points of interest concerning ner, anu

Tillie E. Starbuck and T. F. Oakes.
Mr. McKay was formerly first mate
of the latter, before coming on this
vessel. The Bement was built in
18S4, by Henry E. Gorringe, the Amer
ican Ship Building company at Phila
delphia, Pa., for Jacob E. Red way and
others at a contract price of $120,000,
but including additions and changes
thcessel when completed had cost
$150,000.
Some of the dimensions will give a
good idea of her size, and are as fol fel fol
eows: length over all, 273 feet, six
inches; length on water line 258 feet,
10 inches; breadth moulded, 42 feet;
depth moulded, 25 feet 1 inch; depth
of hold 23 feet, li inches. Gross ton
nage, 1,999 tons; register tonnage,
1,899 tons; tonnage under deck, 1,855
tons; cubical capacity for cargo, 159,
400 cubic feet; displacement on 22 feet
draft, 4,610 tons; dead weight on 22
feet draft, 3,205 tons.
As for sails, she carries 21 square
sails aud 9 fore and aft sails, or 30 in
all, winch embraco a total of 13,000
square yards of canvas. There are
two engines which arc used for hoist
ing anchors, washing decks, pumping,
making sail and for various other pnr
poes. There is a water tank for carrying
fresh water, which holds the enor
mous quantity of 8,000 gallons, and
there is also a condenser which will
convert salt water into good fresh
water if needed. There are several
pumps or the very best make and
design. Iu case of emergency, she
carries two life boats, a long boat and
a Whitehall boat, with oars, sails and
all necessary paraphernalia. A line
steering gear is provided and also a
patent brake, which makes work at
tho wheel comparatively easy.
The vessel is manned as follew3: L.
H. Franck, captain; John McKay, first
mate; Chas. Lawrey, second mate; two
boatswains, n steward, cook, .carpenter
and twenty seamen.
The reporter was kindly invited into
the elegantly-built and finely-furnished
cabin and there had the pleasure of
meeting Mrs. Franck, a very pleasant
and agreeable lady, the daughter of a
sea captaiu with whom she has mado
many voyages. She came across
the continent about a year
ago and Wtos married to Captain
Franck iu Portland. then on
the C. is. Bement she sailed with
him from here to Liverpool,
thence to New York and then
hero from the latter port, which they
left November 17th, making no stop
on the way. The voyage has been
quite pleasant, the roughest weather
having been encountered off this
coast.
Mrs. Franck had a fine organ
plenty of books and faucy work for
amusement and is perfectly at home
on ship board, having no desire to
come on shore, even after her long
voyage. Neatness and good order
characterize the ship, and so staunch
and strong is she that the owners do
not even have any insurance.
After being lightened of part of her
cargo so that she can safely go up the
Columbia, the ship will proceed to
Portland and unload.
A prominent feature of the ship and
an index of her nationality is her figure
head, a large American eagle hand
somely gilded, and looks as natural as
if the bird was actually flying.
Alaska Takes Thousands of 3Ien.
The departures for tho Alaska can
neries, of steamers and other vessels
bearing large quantities ot materials
and great numbers of men, from now
on for the next two weeks will be
very large. At least 2,500 sailors and
fishermen besides thousands of can-
nerymen, will be required for the
Alaska business, and now that the
surplus of coast sailors has been
worked off the steamers and other
vessels engaged in ordinary traffic, are
beginning to experiece tho inconven
ience of a scarcity of men. The
whole water front is affected by the
loading and preparations for depart
ure of these Alaska craft, but there is
no belief expressed that this condition
of affairs will cause any further
advance in sailor's wages. ', F.

'Sixteen years ago," saidS.D. Adair
yesterday, "the first vessel that ever
loaded its entire cargo at Astoria, was
chartered by Dr. Aug. C. Kinney, and
loaded at the Farmer's dock. It was a
great event for the town, as you may
well suppose, and wo Astorians felt
very much pleased. My father, Gen.
John Adair, said: 'Sam, make out a
deed for a town lot and mako a pres
ent of it to the captain.' The vessel's
name was the Vermont, and tho cap
tain's namp was Richardson. I made
out the deed for a lot in upper Asto
ria, and gave it to the captain, who
thnnked me very heartily, aud said ho
would keep the deed safely. I never
heard from him or tho deed till yester
day, when I got a letter from him. He
is in the hardware business iu San
Diego, Cal., and writes that inasmuch
as his taxes this year aro double what
they have been any former year, he
wants to know what I think his lot is
now worth. I wrote in rcplv, that I
thought it would be cheap at eight
hundred dollars.'

About You !
Ever so many years ago when
bustles were still an unknown
quantity, and the dudes of that
day knew naught of cigarottes
and making love, there was no
such a thing as style, or what
style there was one could easily
condense into a bandana hand
kerchief, consequently thestore
kecpers or that day had an easy
time of it. A few dozens of san
dals and some fig leaves was
their only stock in trade, and
thej never bothered their an
cient heads about advertising
the latest styles of fig leaves.
However, things are different
now. The most successful mer
chant of to-day is the one who
knows how to advertise and how
to secure the handsomest goods,
backed up by reasonable prices,
