The Electric has not yot returned from
her Puget Island towing work.
One carload of salmon was shipped to
Pea Moines, Iowa, aboard the Uatzert
last night.
The Harrison leaves out for Tillamook
this morning early. She shipped some
new deck hands yesterday.
The signal will be down from Portland
on Saturday and after taking on a mis
cellaneous cargo here will return to Van
couver. The Fanehon, on her trip across the
river yesterday, was well hidden from
sight by a large Estey organ and a quan
tity of miscellaneous etores.
The government steamer Lincoln took
care of the Mendell's barges yesterday
and made some good sized tows. The
Mendell continued her sounding work at
the mouth of the river.
The steamer Oregon arrived In from
San Francisco yesterday afternoon and
left up the river for Portland at 6
o'clock. She had eight pass.-ngers and a
small quantity of miscellaneous freight
for this city.
The little fishing schooner Francine re
turned to port yesterday morning with a
ton of fine halibut In her hold. Ciptaln
Olsen reports fishing as only fair at pres
ent. His principal hauls were mad- In
the vicinity of the mouth of the river.
Messrs. Cilrns an! Clafke expect their
lines and tackle down the river today for
their new seining outfit. They have
selected an excellent location Inside the
Jetty and adjoining Oliver's grounds.
They expect to start active operations by
Saturday.
Riports from all sources yesterday In
dicate that the run of chlnooks is
steadily Increasing and the gill netters
at the mouth of the river have been reap
ing a rich harvest since Monday. The
weather on the' fishing grounds continues
good, and fully 80 per cent of the boats
are taking advantage of It.
As the water in the river begins to
pale the seiners are beginning to get to
work again, and by Saturday It Is ex
pected that all will be fishing steadily.
Oliver is doing better than any other
seiner on the river. On Tuesday ho de
livered two tons of salmon, and yesterday
he caught 3,500 pounds. Among these
were only 100 pounds of bluebacks. Steel
heads are beginning to put In an appear
ance and this variety of fish is likely
to increase in number gradually from
this time to the end of the season.
Alaska is to get a little benefit out of
the late Trilby craze, according to the
P. I. It's an HI wind that blows nobody
good. The Seattle paper says: "The
new ten-ton schooner Trilby will sail for
Cook's Inlet, Alaska, in about ten days,
H. Schwartz and John Cavanaugh, her
owners, having some mining prospects
there which they will work for at least .
a year. Civil Engineer W. Maurice will
go also to try to find a. pass across the
Alaska mountain range, w-st of the inlet,
into the Kusoqulm valley, which has
never been fully explored."
The Post Intelligencer of Tuesday siys
that the first Installment of the machin
ery and paran'iernal.a needed for dredg
ing out the waterway and canal, In the
shppe of a monster Uowers' dredger and
thirty-two scows and pontoons, m king
up a tow of a little over a quarter of a
mile In length, has arrived in Seattle. The
dredger In the tow is 4oo feet ior.g and
thirty-five feet wide, and the largest
ever In Puget sound. It Is a hydraulic
suction dredger, using a rotary exca.
vator, drawing the material up by a
centrifugal pump and forcing It through
a line of pipe -to whatever point miy
be desired to deposlte the mat
ter excavated. The company owns a sim
ilar but larger dredger, which Is now at
Portland, but is expected to he taken to
the sound within the next six weeks.
T3oth dredgers have done much work on
the coast, the larger one having been
used In San Diego harbor, and brought up
the coast safely boxed up. When so
boxed up these dredgers are able to
weather the heaviest storms.
The sealing fleet that went froni this
coast early In the year let Japanese
waters has fallen upon evil days, ami
misfortunes seem to be crowding thick
and fast on the various schooners that
ventured so far westward. The Emma
Louise. vkh Captain Alexander Mc-Leyj
in command, called at Hakodate with six
of a crew of dismasted Japanese
schooner on board. The rescued men
said their vessel was wrecked about 300
miles off the land and that they had
remained by the dismantled hull until
picked up. For ten days they had been
without food and water. Captala Mc
Lean set fire to the derelict schooner and
remained by her until she sank, so as
to prevent her being a danger to other
vessels. The Emma Louise reported los
ing tlyee of her boats while galling. One
of them was afterwards picked up by
the Therese, another was reported as
being safe " on the schooner Bonanza,
but the crew of the third had not been
heard from when the Be'.glc sailed and It
was thought that they had been lost.
The Josephine, an American schooner,
called at Hakodate to repair a leak. One
of her seams on the port side opened out
while her boats were out, and they had
to be hurriedly called In and the vessel
headed for land, fearing that the leak
would be more dangerous than it proved
to be when the schooner was put on the
ways. Three men belonging to the
schooner Eppinger were cast ashore about
twenty-five miles south of Aomorl, and
they were sent to Hakodate. They said
they became separated from the
schooner In a fog while hunting, and they
were four days in the boat before they
made land.

CULTURE OF CURRANTS IN GREECE
The Garden and Field of Adelaide,
South Australia, says in a recent is
sue: "Our correspondent informs us that
currant vines are always planted out (n
separate blocks, laway from othea
varieties of vines and never in the prox
imity of .fruit trees, and more esp;clally
olive trees, as the latter have been found
to interfere materially with the growth
and yield of. the vines. The vines
which are generally planted about five
feet apart each way, are trained as low
bushes and never trelllsed. The vine
yards are manured every three or four
years with sheep or goat manure. The
yield Is also augmented by the annual
practice of rlng-barklng the stem; this
operation weakens the vines considerably
and ends by killing them.
The vines generally begin to bear at the
eighth year, the maximum results being
obtained between the twelfth and the
twenty-fifth year.
The average yield of the vineyard
varies greatly with the nature of the
soil. Moist, low lying flats are said to
yield heavier crops, but the finest cur
rants proceed from rising ground and
hill slopes. It Is estimated that three to
four pounds of fresh fruit yield . one
pounds of dried currants. It would ap
pear that from 21 to 2J cwt. of dried cur
rants are taken from an acre of good
average land. The low lying flats of
Pyrgos often yield 43 cwt. of dried fruitt
the vineyards of Patras and Corinth
from 21 to 36; whilst those of Vostlzza,
whence proceed the finest currants, very
nearly yield 36 cwt. of dried currants.
It Is Mated that the currants remain on
the drying floors from eight to ten
days.
' The C03t of cultivation seems to be
very great for a country enjoying cheap
labor, rising as It does, according to tht,
provinces, from 6 to 10 per acre. Th
value of an acre of currant vines Is
said to vary from 93 to 128. In the
Vostlzza district they often fetch from
210 to" 288 per acre."
