Sam Maddock and Fred Opitz had a narrow escape from drowning ju Elk creek by the capsiz ing of their canoe while crossing that stream. They had on at tho time, heavy overcoats and gum boots and whon they got ashore they were more dead than alive and considered it a miracle that they were saved from a watery grave.

Ciapp, Pot Hand. Everybody invited. Thieves are again at work in this city and sometime between midnight and 5 o'clock yesterday morning the car house of the street railway com pany, in Upper town was entered and the cash boxes in two of the cars broken open. Jut how much the thieves secured is not known, but as near as can be estimated by Supt. Newcll, something like $12 iu dimes and nickels were taken. The watch man in the sheds heard nothing of the robbers and it is probable that at the limo when the thieves wero at work he was in the office. Ho would not have been attracted by the noise as the stamping ot the horses in the shed would drown it- The holiday number ot the West Shore is an elegant specimen of color printing.

Francisco ou the steamer State of California yesterday -vras Mont Hawthorn of tbis city. Ir. Hawthorn has been located in the far north for several months past, being in the employ of the Aleutian Islands Fish r ,.,. . , , . , g k aiming company, at Xarluk. ' He left Srm "FYmifMcvi Innl lef loof but ou arrival found that the coiu- if Sc.fhme8Si hous,0 an,. ollier , SJVT1 "2 ,n "?," i sequence the men had to put up with sucu accommodations as they could And. During the summer six deaths occurred, one of tho men being the foreman of the company, Jens Thomp son, and the other five Chinese. Tho adventures of Mr. Hawthorn ho took pas- lato in Hbvcm- that met with Cane Flatten' Dec 2nd and 3rd, particulars of which appeared in tho telegraphic columns of The Astoktax. In connection with the storm and an incident that preceeded it tho gentleman tells a very graphic story. In addition to himself and other passengers, there were on board the vessel, about 100 Chinese and a large number of Ital ians. When a fow days out from Kar- IllV onf oC the pagans d I rdcr to sav? t body lhrovvu werboard, one luk, one of the Pagans died, and in from being one or tue crew undertook to preserve it in salt until San Francisco was reached. Under this promise the Chinese on board raised a purso of SCO. The em balming so far as salting tho body down was concerned was a success, but the barrel in which it was stowed was too small and a portion of the cadaver Protruded over tho rim. One of the sailors whose watch had been below when tho embalming had Iiceu .dnpi camo on deck the next morai"y ana. leu over tue barrel, When he found it contained a dead uniucse ne seized an ax and literally hacked tho body to pieces, realizing what he had done and fearing tho wrath of the dead man's countrymen, ho heaved the barrel and body to gether with the dismembered limbs iutP the sea. TIils wa3 on the morning of Novem- err 2ith and when the Chinese discov ered the body was gone thev set un a j great hue ;ind cry and made all sorts of dire forebodings and predictions. Nothing of interest occurred until November 2, when a hurricane from tho northwest struck the vessel. Mr. Hawthorne says in .speaking of the hurricane: "It came on about 8 o'clock I in the evening. Huge seas swept over tue decks and mashed tho bulwarks. Another largo wave splintered the heel and ten sailors steered tho bark with tackle and the captain made a w-heel of stranded ropes. All tho sails "were torn to shreds. The frightened Chinese huddled together like so many sheep. Tho Italians refused io work and were caught in the act of trying to launch a small boat." - Yesterday the Y. M. C.

Huntington as president of the Southern Pacific contemplates and has mapped out a great transcon tinental system with Astoria as its chief basis. The lino proposed is one that is declared by railroad men to be strictly within the territory of the Southern; and beyond cavil greatly to their interest to build. It is a line to run from Astoria to Albany where it will connect with the Oregon Paci fic, which is now in the hands of a re ceiver and will soon be taken in by Mr. Huntington. Following this line across the Cascades and through the magnificent intervening valleys to the Snake it will continue up that stream ou the west and south along a fertile region to Ogden whero it will tap all tho railroads running in every direc tion over the "United States and will afford the shortest route and the best grado to a seaport in all the north western country. Except in crossing the Cascades it will be a one rer cent grade even if some tunneling has to be done, although it is said that be tween Astoria and Albany the hills, along the sea coast offer, with very little winding and without any tuu nehng, only a ouo per cent grade as made by Dame Nature. This situation therefore seems to promise an early solution of the As toria railroad problem since both in terest and policy unite to urge the Southern to come hero for n great northwestern seanort The nlan is said also to embrace, incidentally, a branch line from a point near Silver ton via Portland to tho Sound. Let Astoria get ready with her half million subsidy, and, if only the situa tion forces tho Southern here, she can play into tho hands of the Union Pa ciflc by inciting a road through tho Xehalem or over to Hunter's Lauding. Let us lo up and doing. He Is Coraln;. (?) It was reported last eveniug that William Beid would be down this morning with tho intent to purchase the A. & S. C. bonds which are to be sold by L W.

One of the Greatest Cures Ever Performed by the Cuticura Remedies. At the ace of three months a rash (which afterwards turned lo be eczema or salt rheum) made its appearance on my face. Physician after physician was called. None of them did me any good at all. but made me worse. The disease continued unabated ; i lreau to ray aims aua legs, uu i was lata up entirely, ana Irom continually sitting on tho floor on a pillow, my limbs contracted fo that I lost all control of them and was utterly helpless. Sly mother would have to lift me out and Into bed. I could get around the house on my hands and feet, but I could not get my clothes on at all, and had to wear a sort of dressing gown. My halrhadaltmatteddown or fallen off, and my hcad.faco and ears were :i!j c.ib. The disease continued In this manner until I was seventeen years old, ni il olo day In January, 1879. I read jm ac count in ihe 'tribune of your Cuticoua KciiKDiKs. It described my case so exact ly that I thought, as a last resort, to give ihcin a trial. Wren I first applied them I was all raw and bleeding, from scratching myself.but I went asleep almost immediate 1 v. something I bad not done for years, the effect wis so soothing. In about two weeks I could Mand strali;nt but not walk, I was oeak; but my sores wero nearly well. As i car as I can judge, the Cuticura IlKMKDrFScurrd me In ab.iut six to eight weeks, ami up to this date (i, c.from Janiu r j . 18T9, tu January. 18S7) Ihave not been sick in any way. or have had the least signs of tho diseaj-e reappearing on me.
