Deer chasing by steamboat.

The Portland Oregonian Of Dec. 10
says: "While the steamer Onenota was
on the way up to the Cascades yester-
day morning, and in the vicinity Of
Rooster Rock, Capt John Wolf, who was
at the wheel, observed deer some dis
tance out from the land making for the
opposite shore. He Immediately gave
several short decisive whistles, which
called out both crew and passengers,
and caused them to make inquiries as to
what the matter was. Captain John
pointed out the animal and bore
down toward it. Purser Ingalls, seized
his trusty rifle, and as the steamer came
near the frightened and struggling
animal, fired at it, But the shot failed
to take effect, and the deer swan away.
A small boat was quickly lowered, into
which the valiant collector of fares
leaped, accompanied by several of the
steamers crew. A lively chase followed,
resulting in the capture OF the dear. Az
| ter long and desperate struggle the an.
limal was brought to the steamer, when
| it was dispatched. The body was
brought to the city last evening as a tro-
ply OF the valor Of our friend Ingalls,,
and also Of the crew, who rendered val.
liable assistance in the capture of tine
animal. The deer was very large one,
and was in splendid condition."

A BOGUS BROTHER.
Arrest the ScOundreI-Let mo Guilt
edged Man Escape.


WASHINGTON, Dec. 30.-A day or two
since the Secretary of War received
from the commandant of the Benecia
Barracks, near San Francisco, the fol-
lowing:
"To Hon. W. W. Belknap, Sec
"a brother of the Hon. secre.
tary Chandler is here on inspection
duty, and desires to have armies fur
nished. shall provide them?"
The reception of the message some-
what surprised Secretary Belknap, who
could not imagine what peculiar kind OF
inspection the reported brother of Secre-
tary Chandler could be engaged in, which
would require arms. He accordingly
communicated at once with the Secre-
tary Of the Interior, sending him the fol-
lowing telegram:
"Hon. Zacharias Chandler, Secretary Of
the Interior:
"a man representing himself to be
your brother is at Benecia Barracks,
California, on inspection duty, and de-
sires to be furnished with arms. Shall
order him to he provided?
GSigned1 W. W. BELKNAP,

1t was not many minutes before the
following Characteristic reply was re-
ceived at the War Department.:
"Hon. W. w. Belknap, Secretary Of
81 haVe no brother. Arrest the
scoundreE Her no guilt-edged man es-
cape. [Signed] 2. CHANDLER,
"Secretary Interior"
Upon the receipt of this reply the Sec
retary of War at once telegraphed to
California to have the bogus brother ar
rested, but the bird had flown. Yester-
day the police got track of him, and al
once placed him in durance vile in San
Francisco, where he was captured.
| Intelligence of this was at once sen
to the Secretary of War, who made
haste to communicate the news to hit
brother Secretary, in the following
terms:
'sTo Hon Zachariah Chandler, Secretary
OF the Interior:
"Capt. James alias Can't, Middlese,

The San Francisco Chronicle OF Dec.
19.talks with characteristic confidence
thus: "In no year since California be.
came State has the prospect at this
season of the year been SO magnificent
for the farmers. Looking over the whole
State, there is one general expression
of satisfaction, from the northern to the
southern counties. The area of land un-
Ger cultivation is much larger than in
any previous year, A considerable area
has been reclaimed, and still larger
one rendered fertile by irrigation. Un-
less some unforeseen and unfortunate
change in the weather should take place
before harvest time, we shall be able
to pour into the markets of the
world from twenty to twenty
five per cent. more of the cereals than in
1884, in other words, we shall have to
sell from six hundred thousand to seven
hundred thousand tons of wheat. Un-
less the European markets. should be
specially unfavorable, this will bring
into the State an enormous amount of
money, that can not fail to place our
farmers fairly ON their feet and stimu-
late every branch Of business. Our
wine and wool crops will also add some
millions to the income Of the State for
the ensuing year. From presentappear-
1nces no State in the Union has brighter
prospects than California. 1t Is high
time that our farmers should have sea-
son of good luck to recompcnse them for,
some OF the losses and discoufagements
of the past"

That Circular.
NEW YORK, Dec. 3O.-A a erald spe-
rel from Washington says it is believed
that ths different European Govern
ments have expsrssssed themselves satis-
fed with the attitude Of the President
on the Cuban question, and ready to
send the support of their moral iaiisence
against Spain to impress uP@n
her the necessity Of immediately or as
soon as possible res toring peace in Cuba.
The Spanish property-owners OF Cuba
are weary Of the burdens of war, and are
now ready to assist the new Captain
General in measures looking toward re-
form in the administration and pa
citicatiop OF the troubles. There is at
present no reason to apprehend any diff
ficulues with Spain. There was time
previous to the publication Of the Presi-
dents Message, when some apprehen-
sion was felt that Spain would suddenly
take offense at the tone of that
document, and it was thought
proper to bring the feet in.
to condition for any emergency.
1t is evident, however, that the crisis
is passed, at least for the present. The
