put few leading questions to Shipherd this week,
and TO require him to answer them. He has, thus

own way. He has been given wide latitude, vol
unteering such Information, opinions and impress

The auroral display last night was one OF

widened, and after awhile great shafts OF whites

what seemed to be huge cloud OF fire made its
appearance, the effect OF which was sngutarly

across the face OF the heayg rs from north 10
south, producing an effect much like that given
out in summer time by she reflection OF vivid
flashes OF lightning behind mlS5aS OF cl0uiS An
hour or so after the first appearance the bright
arch seemed 10 be shattered to fragments by
some unseen power. and the whole northern sky
was beautifully marked by fecks OF brill ant
light varying In S.Ze and brilliancy. The display
was greatly enjoyed throughout by those for
tunate enough to see it, and, according to the
telegraph, 1t was observable in many parts of the
country.

VANCOUVER GRANITE. Joseph Sherwin,
architect, of Portland, went cut on Tuesday
evening of last week and examined the
granite outcroppings on the land of Mr.. C.
H. Whitney, north of town. He expressed
the opinion there is a good ledge of it, and
it is of excellent quality for building pur-
poses, possessing the right degree of hard
ness and having clean straight fracture.
This ledge is within mile and half of the
river, and could be very easily developed.
1t is also the nearest available quarry to
Portland. We hope to see. it developed
soon.

The coasting steamer Ydquina ar
rived in Portland Thursday, from San
Juan Island, with cargo of lime. At
Z A. NJ. the lime was discovered on
fire. An attempt was made to eXtin-
guish the fire by smothering with
sand, but in the afternoon the vessel
burst into flames and was cut adrift.
The Lurline towed her on the east
side, where she burned to the waters
edge. The loss is over $4,000, with
out insurance.

The republicans of Pennsylvania
have begun some vigorous kicking
against boss rule and the demands OF
the stalwarts. They have nominated
full independent ticket, and now
things promise the downfall of the
Cameron wing of the republican party.
The New York Times says: "This
contest has significance broader than
the Cameron and anti-Cameron fight
wider even than the field of Penn
sylvania politics. 1t is fresh en-
bodiment of the tendency which shows
itself in various parts of the Union,
and displays increased vigor at every
exhibition Of its character and force.
1t is a protest against a system of pol
tiles which derives it's life blood from
the "spoils system" Of disposing of
public offices, and it must perforce
take in the civil service reform move
ment. 1t is preparing for that move
ment which shall give it power to de-
feat parties until it can control them.
Another significant thing is that the
current of this movement which is
breaking into new channels, is des-
tined to find the present national ad-
ministration in its way wherever it
appears.
