Morrison OF the American ship In
diana from New York with railroad
iron, told me that he arrived off the
bar October 18th, and beat about
outside for five days before pilot
boarded him, not daring to venture
in. In searching for pilot he made
the breakers four times, and when
he finally got across he was compell-
ed to come to anchor in Bakers Bay
and there remain seventeen days
waiting for tow. He arrived in AS
toria November 18th, which was
twenty-five days after he came in

The Storm at Chicago.

Chicago, March 4.-Nothing approach
ing the snow starm, which began last
Wednesday evening and which still con-
tinues in somewhat modified form, has
ever occurred in this region. A fierce
gale has been blowing most of the time
and the snow has drifted in every direc-
tion. Outdoor traffidof all kinds has been
almost suspended in consequence of
the inability of teams to pass
through the drifted heaps. The
street car companies estimate their loss
at $4,000, and rs their energies seem to
have been concentrated in piling snow in
front of shops and houses on either side
of the streets, their estimate is probably
correct. All through the northwest the
snow fall has been unprecedently heavy
and indications are that railway traffic
will be seriously interfered with for
some time to come. Trains
this morning, however, are making
q little time. In the country around
Chicago the fences and all traces of roads
have entirely disappeared and the drifts
in many places, are over six feet high.
In the Chicago postoffice over two hun
dred tons of mail matter has accummu-
lated, and to add to our discomfort Q
milk famine is upon us, rs the entire sup.
ply from the north has been cut off.

the duty OF congress, respecting the
utmost conscientious convictions and re.
ligious rights OF every citizen, to sup.
press within its jurisdiction oil criminal
practices, and especially of that class
which destroys family relations and en-
dangers social order. Nor can any
ecclesiastical organization be safely per-
mitted to usurp in the smallest degree

The civil service can never be placed
on satisfactory basis until it is regula.
ted by law for the good of the service

are entrusted with the appointing power,
against the obstruction to public bust.

Chicago. March 3-At the Grand Opera
house last night, where the Voyagers i'll
the South Seas is running, an incident
occurred which caused considerable sur
prise and amusement. The story had
run along to the point when Jimmie
Grant and Miss Rachael Noah are discov-
cred in the last stages Of pathos and the
cold, heavy, villain Burke. Mr.. Jordan,
suddenly comes upon the scene, and
finding little Jimmie in feeble coudi-
ton. at once proceeds to pick him up.
Burke uses hatchet to accomplish his
purpose, and just as he had the instrn-
ment raised, man was seen to
raise in the second circle, who shouted:
Hold on" The words were no sooner
uttered than he pulled off his coat and
rushed to the box, and climbing over
dropped into the lower box, breaking the
rail in his descent. and making an ugly
cash in his forehead This accident
stopped his progress, but in an instant
he gathered himself together. leapcd up
on the stage, seized the bloodthirsty
Burke by the throat and exclaimed:
"Damn you, you shan't touch that boy
while 1 am here. This amt square
deal" Burke tried to say in stage
whisper, 'its all right; get off the stage"
"No! exclaimed the brawny man from
Colorado. "Damn your eyes 1 would not
trust you" From astonishment the au-
dience had passed into an uproar. They
laughed, cheered and yelled at the scene,
but the riot did not interfere with the
purpose of the chivalrous gentleman
from Colorado. He frightened his hold
on poor Burke's throat, and probably
would have finished him had not some
stage hands rushed on and with much
difficulty dragged him off. On reaching
the street he was told that the people on
the stage were merely fooling. He ex-
planned that he had fallen asleep and
woke up just as little Jimmie was about
to be slaughtered, and forgetting where
he was, had in accordance with the Gus
tom in Colorado. sided with the weakest
in the fight. He apologized for his con-
duct and was allowed to take his seat in
the attic. Again his appearance was the
signal for burst of applause, and when
that subsided Burke was allowed to pro.
ceed with his hellish plot.

Fighting Fire with Fire.

Said an old miner to me, az together we
sat under broad-spreading pinon after
hard climb up the mountain-side When
man once gets the love of alcoholic drink
fastened upon him he will take down any
thing that will quench the fire. One year /
was put in charge of mine near Ruby. So
many of the men were given to drink that
foresaw at once that there would be trouble
unless stop was put to their indulgng,
and so drew the lines tight and discarded
liquor of all kinds from the camp. There
was one Nate Rathbone, or "Old Nate" as
the boys called him, who from the first
chafed considerably under the strict regimen,
but as day after day slipped by without his
breaking over the rules ! lost sight of what
an Incorporate fellow he had been and
ceased to watch him.
After had things pretty well, seemingly,
under control, | had occasion one day 10 90

from the first, was not at all to his liking.

THE OLD FAIR sToRY--A SONG.

A mother kissed her baby,
Rocking II to rest
And gently clasped within her arms,
II nestled in her breast.
The old fair story,
Set round in glory,
Wherever life Ia found;
For oh It's love. It's love, they say,
That makes the world go round.
A fair faced boy and maiden
Passed through the yellow wheat
And their hands were clasped together,
And the flowers grew at their feet.
The old fair story,
Get round in glory,
Wherever life ia found;
For oh It's love, it's love, they say,
That makes the world 20 round.
An old man and a wfinkled wife,
Amid the fair spring weather;
We've shared our sorrows and our Joys,
God grant we die together"
The old fair story,
Set round in glory,
Wherever life Ia found;
For oh it's love, it's love they say.
That makes the world 20 round.

THAT LOAN"
What Council Did Authorize the Com
mittee to do and WHAT 1t Has Done.

What Council Did Authorize the Com
mittee to do and WHAT it Has Done.
Since last Friday evening several peo-
pie have been seriously agltatlng them
selves over the tact that Council author
lied the Finance Committee To negotiate
the payment oil claims amounting 10
about $4,000. These same people have
INDUCED in newspaper communications,
wanting to know whether the voice OF
the people was not TO be Obeyed? The
loan ordinance had been rejected by the
all-poweriul ballot, and now here was
Council calmly going into the business
Of negotiating loan, which, while it was
not quite so large as the one proposed
vet SIS, 900 was large sum, too large in
fact and should not be allowed. Thus
ran on, correspondent and doubtless
there is more TO follow.
One of the REGISTER travellers met W.
b. Simpson, Esq, on the street yester-
day and asked him ii there really was
any cause for all the rumpus raised. At
the meeting OF Council when the FL
nance Committee was instructed to
make said arrangements, everything
seemed to be all right and the reporter
wondered what was the trouble.
Mr.. simpson replied in the negative
very decidedly; he is the chairman OF
that committee and lie explained the
affair in this manner. There was note
due amounting to 81 ,4S0.62 and it was
the plan and idea OF Council TO make
some arrangements TO provide for this
as well as for the pay roll Of employees
for February.
Last Saturday evening the Finance
Committee had a meeting and az that
time instructed the chairman to pay on
said due note, S4SO 81 ami give for the
balances four months note for 81 10000
bearing interest at per cent.
The city pay roll amounting TO about
- 900 was looked alter by negOtiatinga
Temporary loan with the bank for that
amount. This amount very likely will be
paid or covered by the latter end OF the
week by collections turned in by the
City Collector.
1t is thus seen that there is no ne
cessity for trouble or anxiety on the
part Of the citizens The large note,
instead of being increased, has been
reduced and the temporary loan is not
on uausual affair by any means.
