The Western Uuion telegraph
line was still down yesterday.

Never put off for the morrow
what you can do to-day, was fully IL
iustrated yesterday evening 10 the
eyes of our reporter, who witnessed a
saving match between a young Swede
and hls bride OF three months. 1t
appears that a pile, which had no re-
gard for its future, had drifted upon
the banks of an upper town claim.
The impecunious spouse, who is party
of the first part in this narrative, wit
messed this stranding, and calling his
willing partner, hastened to take ad-
vantage of the wreck, winch would
voluntarily reduce the grand total Of
his winters wood bill. The cross-cut
saw was brought into immediate use,
the husband, like all mankind, taking
the highest position the beach afford
ed, while the beautiful bride came
down on her patellas to attend TO heI
end of the business. After witnessing
the above our reporter concluded
there was no excuse for any young
man to 90 west and not get married.

The Commercial Reporter man
SAYS it matters little TO him what our
opinion is or where expressed; that
we have become SO sour that We are
ever digging away at some one. And
then concludes that "the pilotage and
towage system must be looked into,
the sooner the better for all con-
cerned;" etc. 1t is not the intention
of The AsTORIAN to draw invidiOus
comparisons, nor invoke hostile criti-
cism from any source, but from the
terms of rapture with which the Re-
porter man cracks, like an egg shell,
the pilotage and towage system, We
are left standing in awe Of him. Per
haps we'd better let him alone, for
fear that he may prematurely tennin-
ate the universe. 1t was a mere acci-
dent that we chanced to see his last
effusion-a man having brought his
paper into our Office with a piece of
smoked sturgeon wrapped mp in it,
which we confess was the best thing
we have seen in that sheet for long
time. No anecdote nor song is 50
soothing as smoked sturgeon in the
Commercial Reporter.

Referring 10 the sudden and un-

proceed to Scotland as intended, as
the narrow gauge roads had been
virtually placed in the hands Of the
Oregon Railway and Navigation COM
pany through the instrumentality of
ATr. J. b. Montgomery, late con-
tractor on the roads. Whether the
lease can hold is seriously questioned,
as there are some considerations that
require settlement before the final dis
posal OF the roads. Ia any event II is
thought by many that the roads will

it would be difficult to break existing

Though lost to sight to memory
dear" Who is there that has not,
curing his or her life. walked quietly
and reverently through the City vi
the Dead, the last resting place where
mortals are laid who have gone to that
bonrne from which no traveller ever
yet returned. and seen those words
engraved upon the marble slab erected
over the grave Of some one who
might have been beloved by many,
great in the worlds eyes, benefactor
it may be while living, friend tn the
poor perhaps, and for these or other
reasons, 1t might bc this inscription

who has not seen Just such epitaphs
over a grave, where weeds, instead Of
flowers and evergreens are growing.
The slab 4 broken one, the name
effaced, and apparently the occupant
of the tomb forgotten, and in the
language Of Rip Van Winkle: How
soon we are forgotten when we are
gone. These thoughts were brought
to mind yesterday while passing a
funeral cortege. The whole process
sion was composed Of two horses,

enclosed Ia the coffin, in the rear on
foot followed a minister and -four other
men. This poor unfortunate fisher
man lost his life in the perils Of his
vocation, and deserved more fitting
tribute OF respect. If we care for
them while living, let us show some
respect for them while dead.

Bacon and Bears.

A farmers wife. says the Virginia
Enterprise, was preparing dinner, in
the absence of her husband, when the
savOry Odor OF the bacon was scented
by couple of young bears, and enticed
them to follow the direction from which
it came. They kept the scent until it
drew them even into the house.
The lady of the house secured tho
cubs, and her knowledge of bears led
her to think that these young ones had
strayed from their maternal parent.
which would soon follow the trail and
hunt them up. 1t was but few Ln'-
ments before the old shc-bear came in
sight,-an enormous black bruin. The
woman drew down from its rack the
old true, tried and trusty mountain
rife, that had perhaps served on SINH
lar missions many times before. and
fastening the door, she made loop
hole of the window and waited the APP
proach of her bearship. She did not
wait long, and fired, the ball taking ef-
feet, but not proving fatal.
The report of the rifle drew her labor
ing husband from his work. who, COM
ing near the house, was chased several
hundred yards by the bear. which then
gave up pursuit and returned in quest
Of her young. The plucky back-wootis-
mans wife had in the meantime re-
loaded the rifle. and with the second
shot the old she-bear was killed. The
cubs. we are told, sold at Independence
for twenty-six dollars. and the skin of
the bear. which was very large, brought
the sum of eight dollars at the same
place.
