A MARINE CoMBAr.-Jules Menotti
and two companions, while returning
yesterday from a fishing excursion.
were witnesses of a scene not often
noticed by the travellers of our spacious
bay. This was q marine combat which
took place in the reach between Sauce
Tito and Angel Island, the contestants
being swordfish and large fish resem-
bling whale. The large fish or whale
was drstseen rounding the eastern corn
er of the Island, followed by its enemy.
which frequently rose from the water
snd allowed Mr.. Menotti and his COM
panions full view of its proportions.
1t was evidently Xiphais or swordfish,
the body round, the head long, the up
per jaw terminating in long beak in
the form Of sword. The ctheE fish
resembled the norwhale. but as it rarely
rose above the water. its character could
not be clearly ascsrtained. The sword
fish charged it with great impetuosity,
the big fish striking back with its tail
and the water in their track was dyed
with blood. At one time they passed
within six fathoms o. the plunger, caus-
ing Mr.. Mentti and his friends no little
uneasiness. When last seen the fish
were steering toward San Quentin. still
fighting. Sword-fi are not common
in these waters, though in 1854 the ship
Flying Fish. Captain Nicholas, was
struck by one while crossing the bar as
she entered the harbor.-S. p. Bulletin.

DISAPPEARANCE OF OAK TIMBER
From statistics recently published it
appears that oak timber especially is
disappearing from Europe, although
half of the area of Sweden, fourth
of Norway. one-sixth of Switzerland,
and 780, 600 square miles in Russia are
said to be yet in forest. The consump-
ton Of oak in France has doubled dur
ing the last fifty years; she requires 49,
000, 600 cubic feet yearly for wine casks
alone, 10000 for building purposes.
COZ, 900 for.her feet, and 15O.OOO cubic
feet for railway carriages; s8OO. 900
worth of staves were imported in 1852;
95, 600, 900 worth are now needed.
Since losing Alsace and Lorraine,
France contains $50. 700. 900 acres; TO-
OO0, 900 acres of this surface is covered
with forest. Holland and Belgium are
nearly denuded Of timber, and are large
importers. North Germany is rich in
forest, but within half a century has
commenced to cut down young trees.
Austria has sold her forests since rail-
ways have been introduced. In Italy
No forests remain. Spain and Greece
are almost woodless. The southern
coast of the Mediterranean is almost
forsstless.-N. Y. Post,

miles. He stopped along the streets, to
wipe off the perspiration and to talk

his heavy burden. at the barn, his cayuse
was waiting at the door for entrances.
But you must not joke with Sam about
that little matter. We think he carried
q burden heavy enough Monday.

A. T. STEwART.-A. T. Stewart, who
has such large interests in Saratoga. is
bound to make all he can there, and
has just opened dry goods store. A
letter to the Troy Times tells this little
story:
For instance guarantee the
truth Of what I say-a lsdy. in looking
over parasols in the establishment re-
gently, was .atisfed with only one, and
that had already been sold. She express
cd regret and started for the door say
ing she did not care for any other style
Of sunshade. As she left, even before
her buck was turned, Mr.. Stewart quick
ly signalled to the clerk who had been
waiting on her. The young man sprang
to obey that magnetic forefnger.
"What did she want?"
"a parasol, SIR"
"And couldI. t you suit her?"
''No, sir. She wanted one that Mrs.
l. had already ordered-the only one Of
the kind in the store"
Call her back quickly"
The clerk hastened to the door. for
the conversation had lasted but three
seconds, aud requested the ladies to
wait for moment. A. T. himself came
forward with short, nervous steps. and
said, ''If you will call tomorrow morn
ing, We will give you the parasol you
ask for, without fail" " The same morn
ing q telegram ordered supply from
New York. Before the store opened
in the morning the lady's order vas fill
ed. This is the kind of man A. T.
Stewart is. and this is the secret of his
success and of his fortune.

PREMATURE. The announce
ment in the Tribune of last even
ing that the City of Panama was
certainly coming here and would
take down some 1900 tons of
Seattle coal, was rather prema-
ture. No such news has been
received here and it is still as
uncertain as ever. The facts
are these: on receipt of her tel
egram asking for coal, letter
was sent to Victoria informing
her agents that she could be fur
nished with 300 or 400 tons OF
Talbot coal for her own use and
a DOWNRIGHT of 1900 tons OF
Seattle coal. No answer has
yet been returned to this propo-
sition and it is doubtful whether
it will be accepted, as it is coal
for her own consumption that
she wants and not freight. The
City Of Panama arrived in Vic
torla at noon. The Talbot Com
pany have 400 tons in their bun
kers, ready for her if she comes
here.

[FRoM DAILY OF SATURDAY.

CRY OF PANAMA.-The steam
ship City of Panama, Capt. w.
B. Seabury, arrived here at Al
o'clock this morning. She is an
iron screw-steamer, brigantine
rugged, was built at Chester, Pa,
registers 1890 tons and has a
carrying capacity of 1900 tons.
She is 24O feet long, "a feet beam
and 25 feet depth of hold. Her
engines are OF the compound
type and can be run to 1000
horsepower. She is by long
odds the handsomest and largest
vessel that ever entered a port
on this coast north of San Fran
cisco. We learned from her Of
ticers that it is the intention of
the Company to put her on the
route between here and San
Francisco. This is the third
large ocean steamer that has
laid at the wharf in this city
during the past ten days. She
went up to Tacoma this morn
ing, but will return and take on
board sufficient coal from the
Talbot bunkers to take her down
and back, and a down freight of
800 tons of Seattle coal. The
following is the list of passeng-
ers who landed here:
Mrs Wilson, s Davis, Mrs
Webster, N d Rodgers, Mrs
Headrick and E C Headrlck.

ers: H F Band and wife, T W

RACE.-At the Seattle race

Confidence and Tom Merry mile

money but IS simply a square
race to see which is the best

New PAPER.-We have receiv-
ed the first number of the Morn
ing Echo, the new daily publish
ed in Olympia by Mr.. F. Cook.
It is neat little four-column
folio and is well printed, but it
does not seem to have a very
extensive advertising patronage.
We wish Mr.. Cook all success in
his new enterprise.

SCHOONER LAUNcHED.-The new
schooner that was built on the
beach at Plummer's Point, by
Mr.. W. H. Coffelt and others,
was launched last night at high
tide. No name has yet been
given her. She is AZ feet in
keel, Is feet beam, and 4 feet
depth of hold, and will probably
register % tons. She has not
yet been measured or inspected,
though it was so stated by a
contemporary. She is to be put
on no regular route.

CHINESE Row.-There was "a
lively row among the Chinese
in a wash house in the south
end of town last night. It was
quieted by the arrest Of Uh Lee,
the principal disturber, who was
brought before Justice Scott and
required to pay fine Of S. and
costs for assault and battery.

DEATH.-We regret to learn
by the Dalles Mountaineer of
the death of Hon. o. Humason,
a prominent lawyer of Eastern
Oregon, on Wednesday, the 9th
inst. Judge Humason was one
of the pioneers ofthis coast, hav-
ing moved to Oregon in 1851,
and has many friends resident
on the Sound and elsewhere in
the Territory. The immediate
cause of his death was the rup-
ture of blood vessel, caused by
excessive vomiting.
, 1875-09-23

~ It is insinuated that the
unusual peacefulness and quiet
ness now pervading our town is
due to the fact that the greater
portion of our lawyers are now
at Port Townsend, attending
Court.

BARKENTINE HARRIsoN.-The
barkentine Harrison took on a
load of some 300 tons Of Renton
coal and a number of cotton
wood bolts and hauled down to
the Seattle coal wharf last night
to finish her load. She takes
the place Of the bark Antioch,
which sailed last night for San
Francisco.

LIVELY MAIDrNs.-There were two
Madison avenue girls-real beauties.
They were talking beneath the trees in
Clarendon Park, and we were sitting in
dishabills at our window overhead,
eavesdropping. "Eavesdropping?"
Yes, gentle reader, for that is the privi-
lege of the knights of the quill. They
are not As other men. Tho sanctity Of
quiet tete-a-tetes is not sacred to them.
They are bound by the oaths of their
profession to tell all they can find out
CT everybody's business, and the more
unacrupulous they are ef getting hold of
something to tell. the more worthy are
they to enter the scribbler's heaven.
One of the young ladies Aforesaid vas

gayest little maiden I ever saw. It

"Nell," said she. "I am going home

"Going homo tomorrow! What for,

Because I can't behave myself
"Well, out with it, Jennie; what have
