Not in fifteen years Las so little new
web or twine of any kind been bought
on the river as this season. Nearly all
old web will be used this year. In one
sense it will be a saviner, as the outlay
in that direction is something consid censid
erable: the question, however, being,
will the old gear last the season
through?
The atokiax guarantees to its :uhi r
user ihe larret circulation of any nevs t

thousand dollars has already been

The surest sign of the attention

the railroad world is the extraordinary
increase in the circulation of Tun

Astorian'.s outside circulation is al

it was the preceding mouth, but from
the legislature in territorial days, was
a member or the commission on In
dian claims, and was at one time
county judge of this county.
He belonged to a geueralion that
preceded the present, and lived mostly
in the past.
Up to almost the last weeks of his
life lie preserved all his faculties un
impaired, and was never happier than
when in the society of his friends.
He died of no disease or complaint
It seemed as though Nature had
wound him up to run for eighty years,
but ran on for nearly five years more,
until the weary wheels of life at last
stood still.

ArliMic Needlework.
A visit to room 33, in the Occident
hotel yesterday, proved to be very at
tractive, for there are to be found
many elegant specimens of embroidery
on velveU plush, satin aud silk. Miss
Belle Vail has the best of credentials
as to her ability and experience in
executing and teaching embroidery.
But to an observing person, a glance
at the skillful designs so elegautly
wrought, no credentials or testimo
nials are needed. Lovers of art and
ladies and gentlemen of culture aud
refinemeut will see many articles to
admire, by calling as above. Useful
and fancy articles for personal con
venience and home adornment
are there in great profusion.
Nearly every rare and beautiful flower
is shown in needle work, and with a
fidelity to nature in shape and color
which stamps the lady jis a skillful
artist of exquisite taste. The beauti
ful samples are courteously shown
whether one wishes to pnrchase, to
take lessons, or simply to look at them,
and all who admire fine art work will
do well to call.

George T. Allan of Cathlamet, is
probably the oldest living white man
in Washington and Oregon. He came
to Vancouver in 1829, which was then
a part of Oregon. The changes he has
seen wrought in the transformation of
the two new states, from a lonely
wilderness to populous statehoods ia
indeed wonderful. Mr. Allan says
that in 1887 he wrote to a Frenchman
by the name of Gunieau. who lived at
Umpqua, whom he knew was an early
pioneer, as King mm wnen ne came to
Oregon, he replied in 1820, which

"What do you think of a railroad
using ebony and mahogany for bridge
timber':" remarked Mr. O. Paget yes
terday. "It seems strange, yet it is a
fact I have just received a letter
from a friend of mine in Mexico, and
he writes me that the Monterey and
Mexican Gulf railway is using these
woods in the construction of its
bridges and that the stations are be
ing built of black marble. The coun
try through which this road runs
abouuds in those kinds of woods,
whereas the commoner kinds usually
used in constructing bridges are
wholly wanting. The railroads or
Mexico, he writes me, import large
quantities of limber from Tcx:is, and
last year the Mexican Central paid
1,500,000 for Texas lumber." -Ual-cestoii

will easily detect the men of.
original ideas; the meiv who
push themselves and the town
they live in ahead; men who
arc a credit to their profession

in: but you are also sure to find
the imitators, those who are
at the rear end of the proces

an original, bright act. If let

Joy's Vegetable Sarsaparilla, and in nine
rases out of every ten it is effecting specifio
cures. But word comes to us occasionally of
people who report that it operates too freely

that they aro not following thc rented in

it acts too freely reduce the dose, never tak

der thoso conditions it is an absolute cure for
indigestion, dyspepsia, sick, headaches, con
stipation, faeo eruptions and liver and kid

possibly cure so many ailments. But tho
reason is clear. All those troubles arc thc
legitimate result of Improper liver and kid

Blowing Out the Moon.
The literaluess of children maybe
offered in excuse for their want of
reverence. Near my lodging lives a
doctor whose gate i3 illuminated at
night by means of a large oil lamp.
One day it burned until noon, through
the forgetfulness of its owner, whose
wife laughed at him for his negligence.
My landlady's son, a thoughtful 5-year-old,
was much impressed by the
circumstance. Subsequently, " one
winter morning after sunrise, the
youngster beheld tho moon shining
dimly in the western sky. Having
never before seen both orbs at the
same time he was greatly surprised
and remarked gravely to his mether:
"I guess God's wife has got the
laugh on him this time."
"Why, my son, what do you mean?"
asked the horrified mother.
He's as bad as Dr. IJ ."cried
the excited boy. "He's forgot to blow
out his moon." Lewiston Journal.
