The Cnlan Taoinc railroad makes good rhowing In Its annual statement. It not only earned enough last year to pay the Interest on Its bonds, which amounts, In round numbers, to $10,000, 000, but It has a surplus besides of about 12,100,000. This sum would pay two and one-half per cent Interest on the stock of the road, which Is about $60,000,000. The company has nearly $4,000,000 In cash on hand, and Is re ported to be In condition to lend money In Boston. No wonder that the pro ceedings at the annual meeting were entirely harmonious. The stockholders very prudently re-elected Mr. S. H. H Clark as president, and placed George Gould In the place held by his father. Sidney Dillon Ripley likewise takes the place which the former president of the road held in the board of directors, The success of the Union Pacific Is due to good management and economy, as well as to the general growth of its business. Its gross earnings, which were $17,837,061, in 1884, had -increased to $20,438,208 in 1890. It may be as sume that these were considerably aug mented last year, although the wheat trafllo was not as brisk as In 1891, when It was stimulated by high prices abroad The Union Is clearly In a good post tion to build the proposed Astoria ex tension. It could not use its surplus to better advantage. By building from here to Portland it would make the business of the Columbia river a source of profit Instead of loss. It would ro- gain at once much of the trafllo that it has lost. Moreover, it would give an impulse to wheat growing that would be felt throughout the Inland Empire. The company would likewise promote the settlement of the country along the projected line and enable Astoria to develop the maritime and other re sources connected with this richly en dowed region. There Is soemthlng irresistibly ab Burd in the Union Faclflo and other trunk lines halting at Portland While the Pacific ocean with Its wonderful commercial possibilities Is so near at hand. There is no such absurdity In the whole railroad system of the United States and Mexico, A year hence peo ple will be araaxed that the induce ments which this region offers to rail roads were so long overlooked. N. E. Stevens, a painter residing at Astoria, says yesterday's Oregonlan, paid a visit to Portland Wednesday, and the ltme he had was enjoyable while his money lasted. When this was gone he came to his senses, and as usual In such cases, he made a com plaint at police headquarters that he had been robbed. He said that he "picked up" with a box rustler In the People's theatre and bought her a bot tie of beer, paying for It $1. Then he gave her two dollars more, and she left the room. That was the last he saw ot hor. The oflloers, however, could not render him any assistance, and he was left to "rustle" up money enough to get out of town with. Ryan A Co.

Whenever an entertainment Is got up in Astoria with a worthy object In view, success is invariable, and the fancy fair lost evening given by the ladles of the library, was no exception to the rule. The evening was not far advanced before the library room was comfortably filled, and before long lit tie more than standing room remained. With the exception of one of the win dows, which was decorated with bunt' ing, ferns and flowers, no effort was made to embellish the hall, all the beautiful flowers which had been se cured finding a ready sale among those who attended. Miss Powell and Miss Brodle presided at the candy table, and proved then selves admirably adapted for disposing of the confections. The flower table was beautifully dec orated with all kinds of cut .flowers, whose fragrance filled the air. Miss Emma Sayre, Miss Nora Nlckersou, Miss Alice Wood, and Miss Katie Mc kea presided over this branch. Mrs. A. L. Fulton, Mrs. P. L. Cherry, Mrs. J. T. Ross. Mrs. P. A. Stokes, and Miss Dora Badollet found ready sale for every one of the handsome ein rtfoidered articles In their charge, and the tea Uble, which was also well pat ronised, was presided over by Mrs. O. Wlmrata, Mrs. J. T. Rogers, Mrs. S. Elmore, and Master George Cherry. The kodak views shown by Mr. Phil Oook were a source of much enjoyment, and the duties of Mr. J. R. Rathom as narrator were discharged In a style which lent considerably to the success of this part of the program. The proceeds of the affair were $55.25, and the ladles express themselves as highly pleased. WHAT THEY ARE GOOD FOR. Brandrvsth's Pills Are the Beet Medi cine Known.

II . a line looking and apparently healthy man, was observed to stagger while walking on Fifth Avenue this afternoon, ana alter taxing one or iwo un certain steps fell to the sidewalk. When picked up he was dead. A physician ex amined tue uoay.ana prouuuureu mutoimhw the cause of death. A peculiarly sad feature of the case is that Mr. II was on hit way to Maine, to settle in the home of his boyhood. He had passed the previous ten years in the western mining country, and had massed a fortune. If YOU have any of the symptoms given in the foliowingtestimoniuU you should lose no time in seeking relief. From John L. Roberts, Slatington, Pa.: "I have suffered with palpitation, irregular puhst, fainting and mothering tpelU, pain in thouldert, tide, and ami for over forty year. For twelve years have been treated without avail by prominent physicians in my neigh borhood and in New York. Growing con stantly worse, smothering spells followed one another, bo my life was often in danger and I needed constant care. As my son had been cured by Dr. Mtiti New Heart Cure, he sent me three bottles, me nrst aose gave me instant relief. Before using the last bottle I was completely cured. Although seventy five years old I feel twenty years younger. l C IMIIU Illy CUIC iu w annuo, a ,,i,tw.w.
