copal church here yesterday, and is ex-
pected to be in New Tacoma next Sun
day.
SUPREME Court will convene for
short time this week, for the purpose of

NOTE the change in Mr.. Jas. Jones
advertisement. His business is enlarg-
ing, so that he now includes rifles, cart
ridges, shells, powder, shot, wads, caps,
etc, in fact almost anything sportsman
wants.
PEOPLE use great deal of small fruit
hereabouts. Ocean steamers arrive every
ten days, and sometimes oftener, always
bringing large quantities for our retail
dealers, yet the supply always gives out
between arrivals.
BY the steamer Elder which left here

Mrs. r. L. Oaten. The Mississippi also
sailed same day from there with passen-

IT has come to our ears that Capt
Rufus Calhoun might be induced to run
for sheriff in this county, provided the
republican nomination were rendered
him. The Captain is an old line repub-
lican, man of strong, unbending will,
accustomed to making things "go," and
he has been a resident of Jefferson coun-
ty some sixteen years, We had no idea
he could be induced to retire from his
favorite avocation, but this whisper
comes from good authority. II he would
really look favorably upon proposition
| to settle down to the duties of lands
man, we do not hesitate to say that his
claims upon the republican party and
upon the citizens Of this county, in con-
nection with the position mentioned, are
of the strongest character.
JUDGE SWAN has received from Alex
O. Anderson, inspector OF fisheries in b.

pear the following: Fishing" (sea and

Fish culture" natural history" His

Money prizes" Essays" &c. Enough
local interest has been manifested al
ready to insure creditable showing for
the province OF British Columbia, and
Judge Swans we'll known familiarity
with the subject, as also his connection
with tho U. S. Fish Commission, have
led to an appeal to him for such assist
ance as he will generously offer.
