Notice is hereby given that, on or about
July ], 1892, Light-ship will be moored
near the wreck of the steamer Escambia,
off the coast of California, near the en-
trance to San Francisco Bay, in six
fathoms of water. The vessel is schoon-
or rigged, with the words WRECK" on
each side in large white letters. A fred
,chite light will be shown from each
masthead.
The approximate position, as taken
from the charts Of the coast and Geodetic
Survey, is as follows: .......

THE port admiral complains that a
party of northern Indians have hauled
their canoe on the beach in front Of
Hancock's warehouse and have entrench-
cl them selves directly under the adm-
rails sail.loft, and he asks when are the
city officials to abate the nuisance. We
respectfully suggest to the city council
that the best thing they can do to ap-
point the port admiral with full power
to look after all northern canoes, and
direct the Inlians to camp where they
will not offend any one. As the port
admirars duty is connected exclusively
with shipping, he seems to be the prop
or person to look out for Indian canoes
DEATH OF A FAMOUS EDIToR.-Hon.
Frank Soule, for many years connected
with the Alta California, as editor in
chief, died in San Francisco on the 81
inst, at the ripe age of seventy-three
years. Mr.. Soule was born at Freeport,
Me-, in 1909, and was gradu-
ate of Bowdoin College, in Brunswick,
Me. In 1917 he edited the NeW Orleans
Mercury, which he successfully conduct
ed for two years, AMI in 1849 he went to
San Francisco, where he became one of
the editorial force of the Alta, with Ed
ward Gilbert, editor in chief. Since then
he has been identified with every public
movement for the public good and his
name is intimately connected with the
history of San Francisco, and the whole
State of California. His funeral was
largely attended by the members OF the
Masonic Order and the Society of Pio-
neers.
Our old friend, Capt. William Barker,
formerly of Dungeness, who has been
sojourning in Whitman county, has just
returned and today made us friendly
CALL Bill says that he has seen no
place since he left that equals or even
approaches Port Townsend in grandeur
OF scenery or magnificent prospects. He
says the reason why he returned is that
he wanted to breathe salt air once more
and have good square meal on clans.
Captain Barker has been at The Dales,
Walla Walla, Vancouver and Portland,
and he gives it as his candid opinion af-
ter mature and careful deliberation that
he has seen no store in his travels that
equals that of G. G. Bartlett & Co.'S.
Bill told us the story how the hornets
attacked him once at George Gerrish's
on Sequim Prairie but want of space
prevents our giving the story entire. 1t
will be sufficient to state that Bill heat
the hornets.
