Information from Portland announces
that the steamer City of Quincy, having
been purchased by parties on the Sound,
Is now being overhauled at the Williams
cite Iron Works, preparatory to starting
for tn Sound the latter part of the week.
The Quincy is stern wheeler about the
size of the Zephyr, and formerly ran on
the upper Willamette in what was known
as the Independent line of steamers.
Just where she will ply we are unin-
formed, but rumor has it she will be
placed on the route between Seattle and
Laconner, connecting with the Susie and
Daisy belonging to II. Olney g. Co.
Capt. Blackinton, of Guemes island,
returned by the Welcome Monday night
from Seattle, where he went last week
for the purpose of having small schoon-
er made. He'was unsuccessful in his eff
forts IN that direction, however, having
found all the ship carpenters SO busy that
they refused to take further contracts.
Therefore Mr.. Blackinton has given up
the idea OF building his boat for the pres
ent. While it is gratifying 10 learn that
the ship building business is booming to
snch IN extent. it cannot help hut prove a
serious drawback to those desiring to
build Immediately.
On Tuesday last, while Shade Woo
ten was ut Laconner with his sloop Nip
and Tuck, the steamer Welcome, in swing>
ing around, accidentally struck the sloop,
staving in her gunwale and damaging her
otherwise to the extent of SIS or 800.
Mr.. Wooten arrived home on Wednesday
morning with his sloop in a leaky condi-
ton. Unless the matter is compromised,
it is probable that suit will be instituted
by Mr.. Wooten to recover damages from
the steamboat company.
AS soon as the north fork of the Ska
get can be opened it is the intention to
run the new steamer James Mcknight to
Laconner twice week, and make cor nec-
ton with steamers for Seattle. The esti-
mated cost of opening the north fork will
be about $3.50, which it is believed can be
raised by voluntary subscriptions.
Austin s. Gilman, surveyors, from Sc
attic, passed here Monday evening on
their way to Whatcom, where they 60 to
survey the town site in the interest of the
colony people. Tie new town site will be
located about half mile north oi the
mill, on comparatively open ground.
We are fairly overwhelmed with
beautiful flowers, sent US by friends on
Fidalgo and neighbcring islands. This
week we are indebted to Mrs. T. B. Man,
gan and William Gray for choice COLI
lection of roses, fox>gloves, etc.
The summer cottage 1T Anacortes Of
Capt. e. d. Hill. OF Seattle, is undergo
ing extensive repairs, preparatory to its
occupancy by the family during the sum-
