Us Laid out by h. f. l. Logan The Coming Seaside Resort of Oregon T As Laid Out by H, F. L LOGAN TTTl im drHT'W r ri . I r JJUJ&V4A AxoTunR candidate for notoriety is Davis Dalton, an Englishman, ho proposes to sivini a distance of twenty miles for a purse of fifty pounds ster ling. It is a long distance to swim for the sum of $250, but people can be found who will undertake almost any foolhardly feat for money or notoriety. Seattle was visited by another fire yesterday. The blaze was a fierce one and bafllcd the efforts of the fire men, but fortunately it was in a locality remote from the city and the town es caped a repetition of the great blaze or a year ago. Seattle may not be fire fated like Clara Morris, but all the same the fire bell rings there with alarming frequency. IxsAxrrr fcometinies causes its vic tims to commit such horrid acts as to almost cnrdle one's blood. This is exemplified in the telegrams on the first page where an account is given from Minneapolis of a fearful tragedy j committed by an insane man, who , killed lus wife and five children with an axe, and then commenced to cat the arm of one of the dead children. Tiie secretary of war is to appoint at once a board of army oilicers whose duty it will be to select a site for an ordnance foundry on the Pacific const, where cannon for forts and vessels will be manufactured. How would Astoria suit the board? Its location is mort excellent, and its har Imt facilities cannot be excelled. The board is respectfully invited to consider the advantages Astoria can offer. - Tun AsroniAX acknowledges re ceipt of a a complimentary season ticket to the North Pacific Industrial Exposition to Ik? held in Portland, from .SepJe.nl)er 25th to October 25th, and wiH endeavor to le represented on the occasion. According to the larpe nnmlicr of entries and the de mands Tor space, it is safe to prediet that the fair will be an immense sne cS and in every way superior To the .splendid one held last year. These tfnthoringK are of incalculable benefit to this entire coast. Tna action of the commander of a French man-of-war in shelling a na tive village in the New Hebrides is Icn to severe criticism. It is true tli.it the natives murdered a portion of the crew or a German ship, who went ashore to coerce the natives into goiug to Sydney to take the places or striking dock laborers, and the dis union intimates Hint, llio nnrn?. ,, saved to take the islanders by force. rue proper course for the French of ficer to pursue, it appears, would have brcutobave investigated the matter ami punish the murderers, and just !tow he can justify the wholesale slaughter that his guns caused is not apparent Possunvr there is a point to be con sidered which has been overlooked by many, who urge litigation in order to prevent William Hcid from acquiring the virtual possession of the Astoria and South Coast railroad as a whole. It may be that lteid trill succeed in disposing of the bonds, and if he does. the railroad will undoubtedly be corn iced, and Astoria will have through railroad connection. The point alluded to is this: just as soon as any legalsteps are taken, just so surely are the entire wheels blocked and the bonds cannot possibly be disposed or, and consequently the railroad will not be built for two or three years, as Iteid would surely contest any claim attempted to be enforced by a civil action brought against him. The city wants the rail road, it needs and must have railroad connection if it ever expects to occupy any prominent position as a seaport for which it is by naturalsurrouudinirs so eminently qualified. It might therefore be better that cool judgment bo exercised, and that an amicable adjustment be effected with Pveid, that no lwr may be interposed towards disposing of the bonds. The railroad must be constructed, no matter who builds it. "Poor Jranima." 2ot many things in the life of a bov Pccm more important to him than Ids first getting into trousers. It is to be donbtod, indeed, if he is likely to find much of his after life that will give a joy so keen and unmixed; and when Master .Tamie. having reached the ma ture age of "most five," as ho puts it, vas given his first pair of knicker bockers, the whole family were nat urally called upon to rejoice with him. It was arter Ins first transports of joy were over, and he was able to speak oT the great event with calmness, that Jamie canio to his mother, and after tarading up and down before her two or three limes, said, in a tone of per fect satisfactien: 0 mamma, pants make me feel so hke somebody! Don't I look real grown rrp, mamma?' His mother smilingly told him that ho certainly did, and that she could not ivl that he was her baby any more. Didn't it make you feel grown up, mamma," Jamie began, "when yon He slopped short. It had evidently come to his mind that his mother had never known this deep delight which so filled his sonl. He looked at her a moment, an expression of the deepest pity coming over his face, and then he took her hand in both of his and laid it Agrainst his cheek. JPoor mammaP ho said softlv, Poor mamma! If vou'd been my Mitie Rid, Td have let you wear pants jit the same as if you'd been a boy." ROBB & PARKER, General Agents, - - WHAT WOMEN LIKE. They like men who believe in wo men. They like their opinions to be thought of some value. They like a man who can be strong as a lion when trouble comes, and yet, if one is" nervous and tired, can button up a shoe and do it with an amount of consideration that is a mental and physical bracer-up. They liko a man who can take hold of the baby, convince it of his power and get it to sleep after they have been worrying with it, and walking with it uutil their eyes are tired and they feel as if they had no brains. They like a man who is interested in their new dresses, who can give an opinion on a fit, and who is properly indignant at any article written against women. The- like a man who knows their innocent weaknesses and caters to them; who will bring them a box of candy, the last new magazine, or the latest puzzle sold on the street, that will do more than its duty in enter taining everybody for the whole even ing. They like a man who is the master of the situation that is, who has brains enough to help a woman to decide what is the best thing to do under the circumstances, and who has wit enough to realize, when one of the fairer sex is slightly stubborn, that persuasion is more powerful than all the arguments in the world. They like a man who likes them don't scorn their opinions, who be lieves in their good t;iste, who has confidence in their truth, and who, bast or all, knows that the love prom ised, is given him. Thai's the sort of a man a woman likes, nnd her ver sigh of satisfaction, as his virtues are mentioned, is a little prayer that says: 4God bless him." Lat lies' Jfome Journal.
