THEY CAME FROM FAR AX.ASKA. There was a high old time in a Chi nese tenement house on Second street between Benton and Lafayette streets last evening, the occasion being the celebration of a marriage between a Chinese and an Alaska Indian woman. Following the ceremony, which was performed by Rev. Dr. Garner, of this city, the Pagan and his squaw Jbride together witk a host of Chinese friends gathered around a banquet table laden with sharks fins, birds nests soup and other delicacies dear to the Pagan heart. A cheap brand ofwine'was also liberally dispensed. Several Chineeo women graced the scene and. sang solos to the accom paniment of Chinese fiddles and torn toms. The bride was the center ot at traction and as the groom looked upon her portly body and gazed at her brown and greasy face he appeared supremely happy. The uniting of Man Wai and Miss Annie Johnson in in accordance with the cus toms of tho church was simply to legally; seal a union that has existed -between tho couple for many months past Mou is by occupation a coolrand all last season was employed afc Ft Wrangle.

An ugly story preceeded the arrival of the couple, being telegraphed from Port Townsend. It was to tho effect that Mou had bartered his compan ion on the trip down and reaped a golden harvest. This story is denied by Mou and his friends. ANOTHER STOU5I AT 5EA. Itonjrh Weather Will Prevnil ("oast.

The schooner Letitia is loading lumber at the Clatsop mill for San Francisco. The steamer Qen. Miles arnved yesterday from Sboal water bay and left up the river after a short stop. The schooner John F.Miller will sail from San Francisco for this port in a few days to lead Jumber at the Clatsop mills for that city. The ship City of Philadelphia concluded lightering between 800 and 900 tons of freight yesterday and will go up the river as soon as she can get a low. The British ship Cily of Carlisle arrived off the bar last evening and a pilot was put aboard. She will come up tho rivor to-day. The Carlisle is from Australia, and, it is thought, has a cargo of coal. The German four-masted bark Renee Kichmers entered at tho cus tom house yesterday. She will finish taking in cargo hero and now has on board 16,004 sacks of wheat, valued at 29,000; and 2G.286K sacks of flour, valued at $19,943. The British ship Mistley Flail, D. Evans master, arrived in late last even ing, 110 das from Bio de Janeiro. She is a vessel of 1772 tons register and is in ballast to load wheat for the United Kingdom. Tho voyage around tho horn was a very tempestuous and lengthy one, tho vessel meeting with baffling winds and a series of gales, but met with no mishaps. An To tho Sheriff Boarding Prisoners. It has been stated bv tha finlpm Statesman that tho law in this state governing sheriffs in their charges for boardincr prisoners. nroterlv inter preted allowed a sheriff 5 a week for each of four prisoners, and when the number exceeded four ho should be allowed S3 each for each additional prisoner above four. According to that ho would receivo S20 for four prisoners, 823 for five, 2G for six. The section of law governing tho case reads as (oilews: Section 2341. A sheriff shall bo en titled to receive $5 a week for keeping and boarding any person arrested upon a civil or criminal Tirocflas. in thn nnmitv jail, and a proportionate part thereof for any fraction of a week, provided that, if ut any iimo ine numoer oi persons con fined on criminal process in such jail shall exceed four, then the sheriff shall receive $3 per week for boarding and keeping each one of said prisoners dnring the period such prisoners shall remain in custody. The ordinary interpretation of Eng lish language would seem to make it plain that the sheriff is allowed S3 for eachprisonerwhen the number does not exceed four, but when it exceeds four ho will only get S3 each for the num ber he has in custody. So, for four prisoners ho would bo allowed $20 per week, while for five he would only be S15 per week. Sheriff Smidt sas that the latter mode of interpretation of the law is the one that is applied to the estimation of his bills, whether it it be reasonable or otherwise.

THE CRYSTAL SLIPPER, A Gorgeous Spectacnlar ProflncHon f onderfQlly Attracfe CROWDED no USES EVERY SIGHT On "Wednesday evening last there opened at the iTarquam Grand in Portland, one of tho most brilliant spectacular extravaganzas ever pro duced in that city, entitled the "Crys tal Slipper, or Princo Pettiwitz and Little Cinderella." Every evening the vast house is crowded to its ut most capacity, and seats are sold sev eral days in advance. The play is re plete with fun, and intensely interest ing situations. The ballet and chorus girls are mostly beautiful in face and form, especially when arrayed in dazzling costumes, scanty and unique, and m the ballet many now features are presented. Miss Louise Montague as the "Prince" is perfection personified in face, form and voice, sharing well the honors with the charming little Miss Ida Mull, as "Cinderella," who is the smallest lady in the entire company, a child in height, but a perfect wpman in form, with a beautiful childish face, and a voice of wonderful power and sweetness, making her a great favorito with the audience, admired by tho men and beloved by the women. Tho transformation scenes are mar vels of stage mechanism, especially the closing one which has many changes, each opening up more grand ly beautiful, and producing at last a veritable vision of enchanted fairy land. To-morrow night it is given for the last time, giving place on Monday evening to the splendid melodrama "The Stowaway," which will hold the boards for a week. Edwin Foy as "Yosemite," the baron's valet, and W. S. Dabollas "Baron de Boulevard" sustain the comic side of tho piece and are exceedingly mirth provoking, and remarkably original in their ef forts. Manager Friedlander has more than delighted his immense audiences with the "Crystal Slipper," and not only Portland, but from all tho citiss for a long distance, many people have come to witness the brilliant niece. As- torians in largo numbers have at tended. Tho costumes worn are cost ly and elaborate, and tho mounting of tne piece is superb. Cinderella s chariot is drawn by four beautiful littlo ponies, and tho team turns around on'the stage in regular style. Many features of great interest are introduced, which should bo seen to bo appreciated. DR. P&ENTIOE. Eye, Hea.d and Nervous Diseases, At Occident Hotel, Astoria, On "Future Date, For a Few Days Only. FREE. Dr. Prentice Will Cure the First Cane Of Cr&a-Eyes and Epileptic Fits -Free On the Day of JIU Arrival in Astoria. A man well known in this community writes the following interesting letter: "1 was chopping a stnmp four weeks ago, when a living chip struck me in the eye; for a short time 1 was entirely blind, 'llien partial sight returned again. I nurtured hope and continrifcd to treat it at home, until ten das ago, when 1 began to abandon hope of ever seeing perfectly again, unless some thing more than ordinary was done. 1 then connciled two of the leading Oculists of Portland, who told me one eje would have to be cut out to save the other. It did not exactly suit me to have my 03 e cut out, and so I sought other council. I went to Dr. Prentice, the Oculist, then at Portland, and he laughed at tho idea of its being neces sary to cut my cj e out; I joinc d m ihf laugh, for it was on my side. 1 hae been free from pain since the first day's visit to Dr. Prentice, and im proved steadily, and am now en'.irelv well again. I feel bafe in saj ing that it Dr. Prentice cannot cure a case he will always say so Tjios. 11. Fos, Uray'o River, Wash. A Touching Scene Witnessed By a Portland fientlejnan. One week ago we recehed an invita tion to witness a delicate surgical oper ation on an eye. he patient was the 17-j ear-old daughter of Harrison Ilaj For three years she had been blind 111 both 03 es with a cataract, and was obliged to grope her way about in total darkness The patient, without takiug chloroform, submitted to the following operatien: bhewasnow readvforthc surgical part of the work, and we Mood in breathless anxiety m Dr. Prentice placed the point or his knife at the side of the esebal , carefully touched the point of the cornea, then the blade entered the 03 c; we saw It pass through the eye in front of the pupil and then come out at tho opposite side. It was then drawn upward, and a cut made of about one-third of tho circumference of the ball. Another instrument was then passed in back of the pupil, and almost on the instant the girl said: "Oh, Dr. Prentice 1 can see you." This was spoken in tones well calculated to bring tears to one's eyes. From the time the knife touched the es'e unlil the patient could see, it was just one min ute. She was allowed to see those about her for a moment then the 030 was closed and bandaged. In just one week after the operation she came into our office and was able to read our paper. She also wrote a letter home, saying; "Dear parents, 1 can sec and am happj." Mr. Jerome W. Campbell. General Superintendent nf the Willamette Bridge Railway Co , saw this operation.
