In cae of a fire occurring to-day, Astoria, No. 1 would not respond, as tlie engine will be out of service while necessary repairs are being made. There was a break iu telegraphic communication with Portland yester day, the line being down most of the day, but it w;is iu working order in the evening. lviver travel is steadily improving. Every loat is full of passengers each wav, aud the supply of state rooms and lK'rths is every night inadequate for the demaud.

Seldom has thero been a season in which the seals have gone so far up the nver as the present one. They go almost to the mouth of the Willamette, and are greatly destructive of salmon. It is not so much what they eat as what they wantonly kill and mutilate that makes them so destructive. A barge load of cars laden with rails aud spikes for tha Astoria aud South Coast railway came down from Port land yesterday morning, and was towed to Warren ton where the cars were run oft the barge on the track of the railroad, and will be at once des patched to the front, where track lay ing is progressing rapidly. Among other improvements at the opera house is one the value of which will Ikj recognized by every one. A large door will be placed on the Wash ington street side, at the bottom of the gallery stairs, as additional means of exit for gallery occupants. There will then be four exits, and however crowded, the hall can bo emptied in a very -,hort time.

Says the Oregon ian of the Gth: Major Hanbury yesterday received a communication from Hinkle quarry, near Washougal, where the rock for tlie jetty is quarried, stating that the Columbia is rising an inch au hour there. If it comes up high enough to put a stop to work in the quarry, there will be no more work for the jetty for awhile, unless some other quarry can be nsed temporarily. The members of the A. O.

HUNTINGTON'S PROPOSITION, ReceiyeOy the Board of Directors Yesterflay. ! ST II. I lailTI'Olt H'A It It: ItEEJXJTH. When C. P. Huntington, the pres ident of the Southern Pacific railroad company left Portland on the 30th of last mouth, he told the Astoria delega tion which had been conferring with j him that he would send thcra an exact and runn.il proiosilion immediately upuii hi- K'limi to San Francisco. He has kept his word. He got back to San Francisco May 1 2, and immediately upon his arrival wrote and signed n proposition which was received here yesterday morning. It is this. The city of Astoria is to make such financial arrangements as shall guaran tee him on the completion of a standard gauge railroad from the city of Astoria to transcontinental con nection with the Southern Pacific lines, in this state, the sum of $200, 000. Further: all the road now built under any contract the Astoria and South Coast railway company,nov have shall be turned over to him, including the completed road to the Seaside; the property r,o turned over to him to be entirely free fiom all indebtedness. Further that the terminal facilities heretofore devoted to the company under certain conditions, and all the owniugs or holdings or the Astoria and South Coast Kail way Co., includ ing all its property or any nature to be included in the transfer. All the transfer to be made forth with, and the $200,000 to be paid uiou the completion of the road, as agreed by him. The board of directors had a meet ing last night, at which were present Messrs. Page, Fulton, Case, Conn, Kinney and Taylor. The prop osition was read and discussed. No definite action was taken on it for the reason that it is a matter that does not rest with the board of directors; it is for the people, the citizens, those in terested in the advancement of Astoria and the success of the enterprise, to say. All the directors can do, so far as'the $200,000 subsidy is concerned, is to counsel, advise, aid and suggest They can take the lead in the matter of committees, etc.. empowered to raise the amount. Mr. Huntington in a letter accom panying the proposition asks immedi ate consideration -of it, and that he be promptly notified of the result He means business. It will be noticed that his first act upon arriving in San Francisco, irrespective of the vast business interests awaiting his presence was to send his prop osition to Astoria. This matter is a pet project of Ids, aud to have him enlisted on our side in this matter is of vast importance. The $200,000 can and should be pledged before sundown. This is a matter for the property holders to act on, aud at once; $20 on the value of every lot on this peninsula and here abouts would more than represent the amount specified. There is no ''gift," about this thing, unless what one gives to himself may be construed as a gratuity. It is sim ply the embracing of a great and ad vantageous opiortunity. PEILSOXAIj .mention. W. S. Geary returns to Portland this morning. Joe Bergman is suffering with blood poisoning in his right hand. Miss Ola Gillespie, Pacific county's school superintendent, was in the city yesterday. Mrs. J. A. McCollum, of Knappa, came down yesterday with her little son who is quite ill, and has placed him under the doctor's care. By the receut death of a relative in the old country Mrs. Forsberg falls heir to a large and valuable property. She contemplates a trip to Europe this summer. A Murh Needed Improvement. The following petition is in circula tion and should receive the signature of even' voter and taxpayer in the city and vicinity. It speaks for itself: To the Honorable the Postmaster General of the United States, Washington, I). C. We, the undersigned, residents in the vicinity of Astoria, Skipauon aud Seaside, all in Clatsop county, Oregon, respectfully represent, that the several localities are rapidly increasing in population, and that the necessities of our social and business relations with each other and the county at large, de mand verv material increase in mail facilities: that during the summer sea son, especially, thousands of people visit and reside for the beason at the places named; that a standard gauge railroad is nearly completed between the extreme points. We, therefore, respectfullv petition that a daily mail service be at once es tablished between Astoria and Skip anon in Clatsop county, Oregon. Curious Date Fiirurin:;. A gentleman was showing a curious thing in the court house yesterday showing how to tell the day of the week of any date. He gave the fol lowing formula, which can be tried by any ene: Take the last two figures of the year, add a quarter of this, dis regarding the fraction; add the date of the month and to this add the figures in the following list, one fig ure standing for each month, 3-G-6-24 0-2-5-1-3-G-L Divide the sum by seven and the remainder will give the number of the day in the week, and when there is no remainder the day will be Saturday. As an example take, March 19. 1890. Take 90, add 22, add 19, add 6, This gives 137, which divided by 7 leaves a remainder of 4, which is the number ot the day, or Wednesday. Or, again take vesterday, May 6th. Take 90 add 22, add 6, add 4 122. Divide by 7 it leaves a remainder of 3, which is the number of the day of the week, Tuesday. Memorial Day. ltev. G. "W. Grannis went to Fort Stevens yesterday, as a committee from Cnshing Post, No. 14, G. A. R., and saw Mr. Hegardt, assistant en gineer, in charge of the work on the jetty, who will kindly place at the dis posal of the veterans one ot the large barges, and the Qeorgc H. Mendel will tow it to th6 fort, on the morning of memorial day, May 30 th. The ex ercises will take place at the fort, but full particulars of the program and time of departure from hero will be announced in due time, as soon as the committee liave perfected their ar rangements.

Vauglin ascertained that directly op posite Astoria on the Washington side of the river, was a tract of 15G acres which was government land, and had never been taken up. He accordingly filed a homestead claim on it, aud yesterday went there with his wife, accompanied by his brother H. S. Vaughn aud the wife of the latter. They took with them lumber for a house, their household goods and pro visions, and a cow, as well as a very large boat and a tent. They will pitch their tent and use it for a few days until they can erect their house. The steamer Volga took them up from Ilwaco yesterday, and all the above enumerated articles. Stopping ff the rude, rocky and timbered shore, the steamer made fast to some fish net piles out in the stream, as there was no place to land at the shore. The household goods were taken on shore in the large boat by the men in two loads, the lum ber was dumped overboard, fastened by ropes to the piles, from which they which they will tow it to the iand, and the cow pushed off the steamer in the water. A rope had been previously at tached to her horns aud the other end held in the boat, so tho animal headed for the shore. Dropping the rope from the loat, she kept swimming, and soon reached "the "United States," as Bill Nye sajs. At the place where these energetic people were left, there is but a narrow beach at the foot of a high blufT, densely wooded; but it is said that le hind the bluff is a tableland or mesa coutaiyg twenty-five or thirty acres of arable land, while the balance is heavy timber. To see these people land in such a manner and at such a place is suggestive of Mrs. Hemans' beautiful poem, "Landing of the Pilgrims," for it is indeed "a stem and rock-bound coast" As they have energy enough to undertake to make a home in such a locality, there is no doubt but what they will succeed.

A hundred papers are daily tossed on tho editorial desk, and as the wrappers are opened, the difference in odors is perceptible. One comes with dust in the wrapper.aud a pungent sagetrush smell: it is from the arid plains of eastern Oregon; another always smells as though red pepper Chili Colorados- had been sprinkled on the wrapper: a third has that up- all-night-hot-steaming smell that speaks of hurried folding at 3:45 a. m. And one the only one of the lot always has the scent of cologne. When th.it exchange is toni open there always emanates the delicate odor of colegne: the mailing clerk in that office is aesthetic iu his or her tastes. Another wrapper always smells of sour paste and crushed cockroaches, and in the office from whence comes still an other they use glue, and so it goes. The Columbia River Kising. A correspondent of The Astoriax at Lower Cascades, Washington, has kept a correct record of the rise of tho river and sends a full statement, from which the following is given, showing the various dates, while the figures indicate the height of the water above low water mark at each date given: April 22d, 7 feet, 4 inches; 23d, 8 feet, 2 inches; 24th, 8 feet, 8 inches; 25th, 9 feet, 6 inches; 26th, 10 feet, 4 inches; 27th, 10 feet, 8 inches; 28th, 11 feet, 3 inches; 29th, 11 feet, 10 inches; 30th, 12 feet, 6 inches; May 1st, 13 feet, 6 inches; 2d, 14 feet, 6 inches; 3d, 15 feet, 10 inches; 4th, 17 feet, 4 inches. In that vicinity there is still some snow lingering, but the present warm days will soon turn it into water, and add it to that already in the river.

Strauge Phenomenon iu llivcr. the Columbia A traveling mountain is found at the Cascades of the Columbia. It is a triple-peaked mas3 of dark brown basalt, six or eight miles in length where it fronts the river, and rises to a height ot almost 2,000 feet above the water. That it is in motion is the last thought which would be likely lo sug gest itself lo the mind or anyone pass iug it; yet it is a well-established fact that this entire mountain is mov ing slowly but steadily down the river as it it had a deliberate purpose some time in the future to dam the Columbia and form a great lake from the Cascades to The Dalles. The Indian traditions indicate im mense movements of the mountains hereabouts, loug before white men came to Oregon, and the early settlers, immigrants many ot them from New England, gave " the above-described mountainous ridge tho name of "traveling mountain," or ''sliding mountain." In its forward aud downward move ment the forests along the base of the ridge have become submerged in the river. Large tree htubs can be seen standing deep in the water on this shore. The railway engineers aud the trackmen find that the line of the railroad which skirts tho foot of the mountain is being continually forced out ot place. At certain points the road bed and rails have been pushed eight or ten feet out of line in the course of a few years. Geologists attribute this strange phenomenon to the fact that the basalt, which constitutes the bulk of the mountain, rests on a suljstratum of conglomerate, or of soft sandstone, which tho deep, swift current ot the mighty river is constantly wearing away; or that this softer snbrock is of itself yielding, at great depths, to the enormous weight of the harder material above. Dyspepsia, indigestion, sick headache and that tired feeling are cured by Hood's Sarsaparilla, which tones the stomach, promotes healthy digestion, creates an appetite, cures sick headache and builds up the whole system.
