The steamer then returned to the incline and brought away the balauce of the passengers. The school house at Seaside had a narrow escape from destruction by lire jesterday. Religious exercises were being held there and in some way the fire was commnuicated from the stove pipe to the roof. Wator was brought from tho postoflice and the Haines were extinguished after burn ing a hole about four feet square in the roof.

E. church Rev. G. W. Grannis preached an ex cellent sermon on thosubject "Safe, or in Danger." Tho edifice was crowded and the large audience wero deeply interested. The principal topic was that the love of God in the heart forms a deep and abiding strength which maintains one under all cir cumstances. He narrated with thrill ing earnestness an incident in his life when for a moment he felt as if he had lost all hope, and life seemed strangely dark, but at once his feel ings chapped for hope and trust again filled his heart, and the way was odco more bright and joyous.

Michell, who lives at tho Cen tral hotel, is very anxious a3 to the whereabouts of his daughter Nellie of whom he has heard nothing since Saturday evening. She is about thirteen years of age and lived in A. AY. TJtzinger's family for about four ears. For the last three months she has been living with Mrs. Vincent, near the Seaside cannery. She at tended the Court street school last week, and on Friday evening she went to Mrs. Vincent's and soon left She was seen on Saturday forenoon, about 11 o'clock about the swings at Alderbrook. Saturday evening it is said showas seen coming from tho direction of the Court street school, and since that time her father can find no trace of her. Mrs. Vincent scolded tho girl last week for something she had done which displeased Mrs. Vincent, and when tho girl left Friday night, she immediately informed tho girl's father. Ho, being unablo to find his daughter, notified Chief of Police Barry, aud although a lookout has been kept for her, her present where abouts is a mystery. She may bo hid ing with somo of her acquaintances, fearing her father's displeasure; or sho may have fallen in bad hands, or perhaps met with somo accident Whatever may be the matter her dis appearance tho cause of painful anxiety to her father, who requests that anyone who has knowledge of his daughter will let him know at the Central hotel or give the information to Chief Barry as soon as ixissible.

A change in one of the oldest and largest houses of Astoria has been ren dered necessary by tho death and will of the late Louis Wilson, senior partner of the firm of Wilson & Fisher. By the terms of Mr. Wilson's will his interest in tho late firm had to be closed out, and the administrators havo sold his interest to A. C. Fisher, brother of the surviving partner, who takes an equal interest in the firm of Fisher Bros. Captain Fisher has been long and favorably known to the Astoria public and his association with this old established business will be noted with pleasure by the many patrons of the old firm. A successful future is piedictod for tho now firm. An Opinion From Albnny. Both Astoria and Portland aro try ing to secure tho Willamette TJnivor sity. A $125,000 subsidy, it is said, will change its location. An institu tion of that kind should not have its location changed without a reason for it, and there its none at all in this case, except perhaps tho prospect of a big ger endowment McMinvillo college otters to go to Portland for $10,000 in laud and 40,000 in money. Bettor slay at home, both of you. Albany Democrat. Tho above speaks for itself, and will show tho peoplo of Astoria that active work is to bo done if the university is secured for this city. Iacrcased Mail Service. Commencing with to-morrow the mail service to the Nehalem will be twice a-week to and from this city, instead of onoo a week as formerly. The offices on the line from here aro Olney, Jewell, Medley andMishawaka. The distance is forty miles from hero, or eighty miles the round trip. This will bo an improvement which will bo highly appreciated by the settlers on that line. New residents are continu ally locating on the route. ..I m m It Will Meet Here. Will somebody who knows tell us where the Oregon Press Association will meet next year. One day's pro ceeding seemed to locate it at Salem and another fixed it at Astoria. Oold endale Sentinel. Certainly, brother, you shall havo the information. The Press Associa tion will meet here in Astoria, and you had better come here then and enjoy life at Oregon's grand seaport Furnished Seems fer House keeping I have six nicely furnished rooms to let for housekeeping, at 271 Second St, up stairs and down, at my fruit store.

A walk of about three minutes up the hill on the lino of the old military road at TJppertown, brings one to a bench of nearly level ground, on and about which are several tasty resi dences and the extensive buildings oc cupied by John Kopp's ico factory and brewing works. The ice factory' has a capacity of two tons of ice per day, which at present is more than suffi cient to supply the local demand. The ice is taken from the freezer in blocks of about 200 pounds weight Mr. Kopp incidently brews from 600 to 700 barrels of the best beer a month, with which ho supplies most of the trade in this city besides furnishing considerable to supply the trade on the other side of the river. Aforty-horso-power engine is used to drive the machinery, and ten men and three wagons are kept busy delivering the manufactured product, besides that a team is employed hauling wood that makes tho fire that help3 to freeze the ice. The ice machine also chills the air in the cellars in which the hugo tanks of beer aro kept to age. There are ten or moro men employed about tho establishment to which over $700 in wage3 is paid per month. NATURAL GAS. It CoflM Easily Be OHainel at farrcnloD, A COMPASY TO JtE ORG ASIA ED, Ever since the discovery of natural gas at Wnrrentou, and the cessation of work in boring, several prominent gentlemen in this city have been dis cussing tho matter. It is plainly ap parent that natural gas exists there aud it is believed that if a pipo were put down the flow of gas would soon bo sufficient to make it available for fuel and lightiug. Singularly enough, the men iu that vicinity who aro well able to under take tho work, and who would be greatly benefited financially if it should prove successful, are wholly indifieront in the matter, whilo those who aro deeply interested and are de sirous of developing tho flow of gas, are not able to stand the expense. There is scarcely a city in the coun try where if natural gas wero found in such close proximity as it has been to this city, but what an abundance of capital would be offered to develop the well and ascertain if gas could be had in paying quantities, especially when the prospect was so excellent as it has been iu this case. Owing to the seeming reluctance of residents in the vicinity to engage in the work, several energetic men of this city are proposing to organize a company and renew operations at or near tho place where the gas was dis covered two or three months ago. It is believed that a company can be formed and operations commenced at a comparatively small expense on each member, and even if no great success was attained, the cost of the experiment would not be felt On the other hand, if, as is'believed, gas can be found in paying quantities, the in vestment would prove a good one for all who are fortunate enough to be members of the company. 31 A RISK NEWS -AND NOTES. Thesteamer Argonaut arrived down from Portland yesterday and went on the beach to receive a new propeller. The Argonaut is now the property of the Union Pacific company, with head quarters in Portland. The steamer Geo. w. Elder, Capt Patterson, left up for Portland yester day, after unloading 211 tons of coal and 7,000 cases of salmon from Alaska for Elmoro & Sanborn, Aberdeen Packing Company and Morgan & Sherman. The steamer Lurline lust Saturday, while towing a bargo from Vancouver, collided with the railroad bridge, smashing forty feet of her guards. Also while passing the new Madison street bridge sho ran into a pile, break ing it short off. Tho British ship Angcrona, 1,218 tons register, Capt Hard wick, 62 dajs from Sydney, N. S.

A HaMsoinc City in the Bocly " Mountains. -L2f SEES IJ2T AS ASIORIAS. HeiiExa, Mont., Sept 10, '90. Editor Astekiax: About a thou sand miles northeast of Astoria, in a spur of the main Bocky Mountain range perched on a granite crag, is this mining town of 20,000 people. To an Astorian there is mnch of interest The first impression is one of surprise at finding tho familiar name "Lewis and ClarkeV in so many places, as that is the name of tho county in which Helena is situated. This place is to Montana what Den ver is to Colerado: its capital and fin est city. When u Montana man makes a lot of nnuey in mine3 or cattle or sheep he comes to Helena and builds a fiue house i a which to enjoy life and talk over frontier days with his friends. It seems singular to see 50,000 and 100,000 residences overlooking gulches, or perched on the side of a grim mountaiu, but there are scorei of such mansions here, and tho prin cipal streets aro lined with massive structures in which considerable busi ness is done. I am principally impressed with the character of the place, or, rather, of its people. They are not Pacific Coasters, nor are they Eastern. The two classes meet here and amalgamate. Tho result is a sort of cross in the usual conditions of life in most respects, the characteristics of tho coast predomi nating. Some phases of evcr3-day life seem funny. At tiie hotel, 1 uotice when men begin dinner they make a grab at the cake dish and munch jelly cake with their soup, aud cream puffs with their 13s1l Tho old style of "fwclvc o'clock dinner ' and ''six o'clock sup- iicr" obtained, even at the principal loteh", pie is f nrnished forth at break fast and fish is provided for supper. In tho street cars peoplo seek the suuny sido of the car, and, as in San Francisco, everyone who goes out iu the evening takes an overcoat or wrap. Everything is run ''wide open." Thero aro at least a dozen big gam bling houses on the principal streets, with crowds of players, and over the doors the sign, "Licensed Gambling House." Most of tho games are played with a limit, which is some times taken oft. The authorities say that people will gamble anyhow, and the city might as well derive somo benefit from it The result is that there is almost as much gambling hero as thero is in Astoria. Prominently displayed is a notice signed by tho mayor warning "all thieves, thugs, assassins and house burners"' that if they don't leave town they will be summarily dealt with. In tho absence of more specific kuowledge it looks as though the matter de pended on the mayor's personal ac quaintance with those undesirable residents as there is nothing in the absence of positive proof to determine who those folks are. There are seven banks with SOO,000 capital, nine big brick churches, four very fine public schools, three private schools, all with the American flag floating above them, and a number of large mercantile establishments. President Harrison's sou has the biggest and best daily newspaper the Journal, in whose office I am writing this letter. The Journal company issuo three papers, and carry on a wholesale paper aud stationery business. Prominent business men say there is no "boom" here; that tho city's rapid growth is due to its position and natural advantages. Still it looks a little forced, and due largeh to tho influx of earned money from other parts of the state here seeking invest ment Last year Montana was first iu the amount of copper mined, second in gold and second m silver, of any state or territory in the union. There are several valuable miues in the vicinity and millionaires are as plenty as in Portland. The travel each way is something tremendous. The trains are all full, with passengers perched on the wood box. On my way from S)okaue Falls I was particularly impressed with two fellow-travelers one of them was a typical cowboy, in the seat next me, the other was an English clergy man, who shared my section and who graciously expressed his thanks when I gave up tho lower berth to him. Two more dissimilar types of civiliza tion could scarcely bo got together. The cowboy was dressed after the manner of his tribe, aud from tho sombrero down to his pistol belt and small, neatly booted feet, was got up according to tho correct caper in cow boy circles. His speech was full of strange oaths,suppresscd but emphatic, and ho but illy disguised his feelings of disgust at the tameness of his sur roundings and our evident lack cf ap preciation of his explanation of the best sj'stem of cutting out a maverick from the herd. Tho English divine, was a man of 70 years, who, as he explained to mo in most courtly phrase, was ono of the prebendaries in Canterbury ca thedral. Whilo the cowboy was talk ing cattle the dean was tolling mo of the recent discovery of his colleagues of the bones of St Thomas, a Becket, who was martyred in 1178. A saint who was translated to glory 700 years ago had little interest for the cow boy, and tho glowing interest mani fested by tho Episcopalian divine in the finding of the long lost shrine, found no affirmativo response on tho countenjince of the cowboy, who was announcing tho prospective program of anticipated pleasure of his visit to Helena. Tho clergyman was traveling to seo the country. Ho told me that for half a century it had been his wish td see tho United States, and that every-j thing filled him with astonishment Ho performed ono feat that cer tainly filled mo with astonishment Shortly after breakfast he removed his gold-bowed eye-glasses and pro duced from his traveling bag a razor, strop, shaving brush and mug. Then this venerable man went to the end of tho car and calmly putting an edge on the shining razor, serenely lathered his cheeks and chin, aud with the tram swaying along at tho rate of thirty miles an hour, and whisking around curves and over dizzy tres tles, the divino placidly shaved him self. He did it neatly, too, and as a matter of course, and as though shav ing himself on mountain railroad trains was an every-uay occurrence with him. I admired hi3 nerve, but would go without shaving a month before fol lowing his hazardous example. I don't believe even the cowboy would doit For an ordinary man the feat would appear unusual, but for a staid and venerable dean of Canterbury Cathedral the performance seemed J amazing. After he had put the shaving outfit back in hi3 valiso I began asking him questions about English clerical life and the daily routine of duty in an English cathedral, and learned more than I suppose possible any other way unless I took a pilgrimage to Canter bury. If I ever do my traveling com panion guarantees to do the honors. J. F. H. DEATH OF A XOTED MAX. Dr. (Jeo. B. Chlselln, a Famous Confederate. Dies In ew York. Dr. George B. Chiseliu, tho famous traveler and diplomat of tho Sonthem Confederacy, died at the Gilsey house iu New York on Thursday. When Mason and Slidell wero dispatched to Great Britain, Chiselin was sent after them by way of Canada, as an emer gency man. He was tho only ambas sador to reach the English shores, and he was also the first one of the Con federacy to warn Davis that his contest was a hopeless one. Be turning to the United States ho was one of the first to develop its mining resources. He onened ud mines sonth of Tinn's- ville. Ivy., and afterwards, selling a portion of his interest to Henry Gray & Co., ol Louisville, joined Henry xueiggs in uaiiao. no was associated with Meiggs in his Peruvian mining and railroad enterprises until 1885, when Chiselin onerated in P.ieirie coast mines. His will, it is understood, transfers his interest to his two chil dren. Hone Vernon Chiselin. of Ari zona, and his son Dixie, of St. Louis. His body will bo sent on to Kentucky lor ounai.

A Good Heart. A waif of a boy was eating a stale half-loaf on the street coiner yester day, with the air of a starveling, says the Detroit Free Press, when a stray dog came along aud crouched at his feet ' The hungry look remained in tho boy's eyes, but he glanced down at the vagabond dog aud said in a friendly way: "Wot yon want? This ain't no bone. Git!" The dog moved off a little, and again it crouched and looked wistfully at tho food "Say, do yer want this wuss nor I do?" asked tho waif. "Speak, can't yer?" Tho dog gavo a quick bark, and the boy threw him the rest of tho loaf. "Nuff said," he remarked, as he watched him eat ravenously. "I ain't the feller to see a pard in trouble." And the boy went off one way and tho dog he had befriended another, both tho better for tho encounter. A mortgage was raised from a poor woman's house at Plainfield, N. J., by watermelon seeds. The guests of a summer hotel paid 50 cents apiece for the privilege of guessing the number of seeds in a watermelon, and tho proceeds were devoted to the widow. Edward Eggleston, the author of the "Hoosier Schoolmaster," has an other story of "Western life. His pen has served him well. His income from his books amounts to about $8,000 a year. A BUSINESS PKOPOSITIOIf. A City Lady Who Required 1'roef Before BelleTlng. There recently appeared in the San Fran cisco Call, Chronicle, anil Examiner, a propo sition hitherto unheard of. It was an advertisement In which the Edwin W. Joy Company, in proof of the curative properties of Joy's Vegetable Sarsaparilla, offered to submit it to the terrific test of "no cure no pay." Many aocepted, and their experiences arc so convincing as to be almost beyond belief. Here Is another, written under dato January G, 1830: Deui Sies: I accepted your offer to test the merits of your vegetable remedy In sick headaches, and called forabottle and got it I Mad been troubled for n lonp time, and had tried nearly ecrythinfr. with little or no effect; bHt Joy's Vegetable Sarsaparilla acted almost like maijic, and the first bottlo relieved me from one of the worst cases of sick headache one ever had.
