With the new arrangement a station will be established at Perkin’s saw mill and the stations at Fairdale and the 1 Summit House will be abandoned.

The steam lumber schooner Sequoia, which loaded at the Truckee saw mill met with an accident on Sunday when trying to get out. She stuck on the bar and had to throw overboard 100,000 feet of lumber before she could get off, when she returned to Hobsonville and left the next day. The captain ofthe schooner was a stranger to this port anil in crossing out got out of the channel- Captain Loll, of the steamer Geo R Vos burg, offered to pilot the schooner out for $50, but the captain refused to pay that sum and decided to go it alone. She was drawing 13 feet of water, and with the stage of water that day could have crossed out without grounding had the captain taken the right channel or allow ed the tug to pilot her out. The Sequoia has put into Astoria, with her rudder damaged and the vessel leaking. Her master, Captain Wilkie, is awaiting in structions from her owners as to what to do. He wants to go to Puget Sound to go on a dry dock, but will need an ex tra pump and a tug boat to escort him.

It looks as though the jumping off place of the Northwest is falling back on McMinnville for star actors for this year’s celebration in this city. * * * Someone set the report about that the wind would blow off the top stories of the new school building. All that is nec essary to say to refute that is this : There are fools yet in the world who are talk ing through their hat or they lack good common sense when they circulate such foolish reports, * * * Never put vour head into a vapor bath — .vhereit should be stickingout and not in—to take the sun burn out of your face before you ascertain from Clark how the blam'd thing works on the stomach, for there is danger of an eruption like a bad fit of sea sickness. This is too much of a good joke for only a few to have some fun oyer. * » * For the protection of the general pub lie, the H eadlight would advise those who have property to sell to keep their eyes peeled as to what they are signing before they put their names to an option or a deed, for there appears to lie blanks in use, most of which are o.k., but there are others which are tricky, if you get tricked after reading this don’t I* a squealer. * * * It will be noticed that the city council has passed an ordinance making it neces sary for those who give shows to take out a license and has repealed the ordi- dance which was passed to sock it to the Quaker doctors. Is it not time for them to return and catch the suckers and then gooff with $5000 or $6<MH) jingling in their jeans and with a knowing wink in their eve that the people in Tillamook could be work dead easy with jaw bone and hot air. * * » Carbolic Compound The saw mill me 1 are up a »aitist t’ e shipping problem good and hard ; gain This is too bad, when there is such a de mand for lumlxr at good pre s.
