B. Field will leave for Tillamook next Saturday. A largo fire is reported in the timber back of St Helens. The roadfroni llivaco to Seavieiv is reported in good condition. The Sea View house is now open for visitors.

The Astoria and Winnemucca railroad company will hold their annual meeting in this city on the 5th of next month. The Rogers all-star dramatic company will open at Liberty Hall for a brief season, beginning next Monday, the 2oth insl. J. G.

This time it Mas on Main street. The Gen. 3fila will leave for Gray's harbor at o'clock this morning.

Read the revised edition of the I. S. X. Co's lime table! Boat Xo. 0, of the Scandinavian Packing company, is missing since the 7th and fears are entertained for the safety of the crew.

The State of California is due this luorniug. She hus the usual largo freight and passenger list. On board is $25,000 worth of opium. F. V.

Stechhan writes us that he will play Courtright Hawkins minstrels in Astoria, immediately after their Portland engagement is filled. The first through tram from St. Paul over the Northern Pacific arrived at Helena, M. at 8:30 i m. last Saturday.

Time from St. Paul sixty hours. The latest railroad yarn is that "an advertisement will soon appear for ties." It comes from the same sourco as similar canards and is wholly without foundation. Further additions have been made to tho Oregon state militia, and in case the Franco-Chinese war ox-tends to this Bide of the Pacific we are not entirely defenseless. Hanson Bros, have been awarded the contract for the mill work, fittings of tho new schoolhouBo for There were two othor bids from Portland firms, one for the other, SG.391.

Mr. Alfred Tozier, and Mr. Slinson, two "typos," are in tho city, representatives to the 1. O. G.

T. lodge. Mr. Slinson has one of tho finest job offices in the state. Mr.

Tozier is about to start a newspaper iu Chehalia, V. T. A movement is on foot to get up steam engine contest on the Fourth; hose carts to run 200 yards, engines 100 yards, and throw water, and maybe one other contest have a little firemen's tournament of our own as it were. It is probable the contest will be made. A grand ball in the evening is also among the probabilities.

Those of the delegates who came down to the grand lodgo 1. O. G. yesterday afternoon, improved the opportunity a leisure afternoon afforded by chartering the Gen. Miles, and taking a trip down to the bar.

The water was rough, a little too rough for some of them, but they enjoyed the homeward trip, and had a ood time. At the Vancouver printer's picnic last Saturday, Jerry Coldwell, of the Oregonian, was awarded the prize for the most popular reporter. Carlisle, of the Iolari.s, was voted the most popular editor. Wm. Alexander, and G.

R. Washburae re moved the confectionery, the one for being the handsomest, and the other the raot industrious printer. Tho annual sesion of the grand lodge of Oregon, I. O. G.

begins in tho Pythian hall in this city at ten o'clock this morning. Eighty-five delegates came down yesterday anl an additional number are oxpected today. The order is evidently in a flourishing condition, and those of the delegates whom wo have seen are evidently gentlemen and ladies of culture. Yesterday was a breezy day upon tho water. Opposite the city the white caps broke in ceaseless flow upon the emerald crests of tho waves, and down at the cape the wind blew great guns from tho west.

The sky was cloudless and of that matchiess violet hue, so admired by visitors. The. sun shone warm in shady nooks. Aloag the water front the wind whistled in shrill treble among the rig of the vessels. Going Ahead Mr.

H. G. Hurlburt who is in charge of the Astoria railroad survey, was in the city yesterday. His party is now on the twenty-six miles south and east cf the city. They expect to strike tho Nchalem this week.

Progress is alow for two reasens: the party makes a thorough survey of the country as they go, and are running the garade for the road bed on which the iron tie of civilization shall run. Tho character of tho country they traverse is also totally incompatible with rapid progress. "I tell you," says Mr. Hurlbnr.1, who is a man of large experience, "it is a wonderful country for timber. Sometimes, however, when we have our instruments on our back, and are trying to make camp, we wish it wasn't quite so wonderful.

You are going ahead as best you can, with a pathway sort of half way cleared of brush which stands as thick as hair on a dog's bick, and here, right in the way, is a fallen monarch twelve feet through, blocking up climb up, and it's like going up the roof of a house, and when you slide down tho other side, there arc a couple more such prostrate giants right ahead. True, you can get around them, but to slash and cut your way through two hundred feet of underbrush to get around is a little hko that Yakima man I read about in your paper the other day who traveled up Gfty miles to a ferry, and then walked down fifty miles on the other side to a point opposite where he started." The party is making a good showing. There is a splendid country for tho road to go through, and the resources are practically inexhaustible. Mr. Hurlburt reports the grade on both sides of the summit to bo one hundred feet to the mile.

We shall next hear from them on the Neha-lem. It is the opinion of ths writer Mr. Hurlburt and hU pirty can a better grade than "a hundred to the mile" over the summit. that find feet The mountain is reported to bo 1,100 feet high, and it certainly need not require such a grade to curry a road over a comparatively slight elevation. Should be Attended to.

Astoria, June 18, 1883. Ei. Astekiax: Please inform us who attends to stale and ill smelling rotten salmon and sturgeon on the beach, and particularly at the corner of Mum and Conconily street. TAXI'AVKKS. We believe the committee on health and polico are the authorities who should abate tho nuisance complained of.

It is usual to hire a man whose duty is to keep tho beach clean and free from the unpleasant Eights and smells that at present assail tho senses. Probably this will bo a sufficient reminder. Suicide. The dead body of Henry Plath was found on the bank of Young's river last Sunday by one of his neighbors, and was buried yesterday morning. Some time ago ho gave evidence of incipient insanity, and about the 10th of this month he left note in his cabin, saying that he intended to drown himself.

Nothing was seen of tho unfortunate man until his remains wero found. Under the circumstances Coroner Franklin did not consider it necessary to hold an inquest. A. T. Brakke who for tho patt six years has been prominently identified with Columbia river canning interests, will leave for Seattle about tho 1st of next month, at which point he intends going into business.

Mr. Brakke managed W. T. Coleman Co's Astoria business for nearly two years and will no doubt, be eminently successful in his new homo. His con-templated business is one in which he had seven years eastern experience.

At the Main street wharf is a battered old photograph, the sight of which brings up a good many recollections in the minds of "old-timers" who see it. It is a picture of five bar pilots, Capts. J. G. Hustler, M.

Rogers, A. Crosby, A. C. Farnsworth, and Chas. Edwards.

It was taken in 1855, when the old pilot schooner California was the sole dependence of mariners who entered and departed from the Columbia river. The three latter have joined the silent majority; the first two are still among us hale and hearty. A putative citizen whose name nnd nature are apparently contradictory, attracted considerable attention at the fire last Sunday morning by informing all and sundry that if they put a stream of water on tho building ho would sue them. He seems to have peculiar ideas about these matters. According to this, when a fire breaks out, and the town is threatened with fearful destruction, the fire companies mnst not stir a foot nor lift a finger iu an attempt to put it out till the owner of the property is found, and his consent obtained.

C. Brown, Sec'y. Fashion in Hosiery. "Fashion," says wicked Clara Bell, "has turned a jrcat man of us into blacklegs. Inky is the hue of the most fashionable hosiery.

Rows of black stockings fairly puts parts of tho stores into mourning. Tho flop of a skirt discloses an ankle in silhouotto against a background of white muslin. Even inartistic obsorvers arc constant ly making studies in black and white. And, truth to tell, these pictures are successes in outline drawings. They are true to the most attractive configurations of human anatomy, and, besides that, are instinct with life and motion.

It is equal to a shadow pantomime to see an attractive girl raise her dress well out of the mud on the sido toward the spectators and leave it down on the other, while she races for a street car. There you get the lively movements of her pace thrown out sharply by her black stockings against the white dimity. That Francisco photographer who made a hit by picturing tho gait of a horse, is going to open a gnllory here in New York, with the intention of bringing hi3 row of cameras to bear upon all sorts of animals and thing iu motion. It struck me that the gait of a girl would be an interesting object for him to experiment on. Think of theinfinite variety.

Conceive tho wide range from grace to awkwardness. Girls walk so differently, and run with such original individuality, that no two pictures would be alike. There are soma who tread like queens, with straight ankle3 and toes turned out. There aro others whose knees interfere and whose feet are lifted over each other at every step. Then what a field for that kind of photography the ballroom would afford.

A quadrillo would afford more curiosities of gait than all the trotting and running horses in the world, and as for the racket waltz my imagination fails and my pen is paralyzed by the bare suggestion."
