A largo number of Astorlans go down on tlio Columbia today. Fishermen are now busily engaged In stretching lines and overhauling nets lor the coming season. Deputy County, Clerk Dickenson's good angel kept him from being made a plaster cast yesterday. The recording angel never "strikes a balance on his books by what Is said of a man on his gravestone. Several true bills were returned by busy collectors yesterday after having first been receipted and paid for. Smelts are arriving In the city mar kets In large quantities most of them coming from the mouth of the Cowlitz river.

"The Clue Jay Club,"says an even ing paper, "has received a nlnvltatlon to go to Washington and attend the inaugural ceremonies." A special (col lect) telegram has been sent to Mr. Cleveland, Informing him that as soon as the president of the club turns up, the invitation will be accepted. It has been found necessary to change the shield of the Blue Jay Club. In future its colors will show a dollar bill encircle a visionary watch, a pic ture of Spagolettl Frutt In the corner remarking: "I told you so," and on the reverse side the first three bars of that touching musical composition "Far, Far Away." The members of the Y. W. C. T .. ,-o(ofnl and 'desire to are vcijr 6""""1' press their sincere appreatlon of the kindness of the ladies and gentlemen who spent their time and talents In helping to make the Colonial Levee a euccess. They wish particularly to thank Columbia and Uncle Sam, and Martha and George Washington. Judge McBride's opinion of the Evangelical Lutheran vs. Lutheran Evangelical discussion that Is now en gaging the attention of the court, is ovlrtontlv that it is a case of "tweedle- rlnm and tweedledee." , By the way. the original meaning of the word "con to " herd of beasts, or gicgmiuii - other animals, gathered together In one place.

In less hn n minute after he had vacated his seat a large section of plastering fell from the ceiling, and covered the whole of his table, burying the papers i o mnsa of debris and filling the rnnm with dust. Mr. Dickinson feels vitr in luck in eettincr off with JlllllOV.1- ----- nothing worse than a sneezing fit.

He had been over to Tansy Point to note the progress of tho survey his crew are making In that vlclntfy, and started to return by the Fort Stev ens road. He had gone about eighty rods when he met a small drove of cat tle, headed by an apparently Inoffens ive bull. While not afraid of cattle as a general thing he feels fully as safe if there is a fence between them. But in this case there was no fence. The road runs along a ridge, on one side open, level ground, and on the other descend ing Into a swamp. He thought he was entitled to the road, and o- manifest it let out a few Comanche yells, accom panied by the usual contortions and hideous grimaces, which appeared to frighten the wild eyed cows as they turned out into the open. Not so the bull, however, who stood his ground ap parently not fully comprehending Harrv's wishes. To emphasise it, Har ry picked up a small stick and threw it, striking the bull on the nose. Fatal mistake, for with a blood curdling roar, the animal lowered his head and charged him. With an equally neart rendine yell. Harry plunged Into the swamp where he stayed for three hours flirhtlne brush and climbing logs ana trees to ascertain the position of his pursuer, until he finally escaped. But for this mishap he would have maae the trip in twenty minutes; could have caught the boat for home and saved his family much uneasiness. He is now convalescent. Tho tirenlt Court.
