A New Country.

The Historian, in the manner followi ne,
describes the country into which it is
proposed to build railroad, from
Seattle to Gray's Harbor:
The Yaquina, which came in last We'd
nesday night from an exploring expedl-
ton, brings news of several isolated and
self sustaining little communities OF in
dependent people who are living along
the Chehalis river for distance of seven
ty miles. 1t is, we are informed virgin
country, entirely PASTORAL in its sur
roundings and characteristics, and as
remote from the ordinary lines of travel
and communication as though it were
some lone island of the Pacific. TIE
land is of unequalled fertility, the tins
Der of sturdlest growth, and the re-
sources of the country give promise,
when developed, of causing this section
to be wealthy and prosperous in an
eminent degree. IT'S now some five or
six years ago since steamer first went
up the Chehalis, and we believe the
Yaquina is the largest craft that ever
visited those shores. This vessel, which
left Astoria about nine days ago, made
brief stay at Chehalis City at the en-
trance of Gray's Harbor, and then went
inland some sixty miles, finding a good
channel and safe landing as far as she
went; the eastern limit was reached at
Montesano, where there is twenty feet OF
water and an apparently safe channel ex-
tending up far into the interior. There
are no buoys, or anything else to indicate
the channel, but soundings taken show
no difficulty in navigating those waters
To some of the dwellers in that section
the sight of steamer was new sensa-
ton; many of the younger residents hav>
ing never seen steamboat before.
Though the cost OF running the Yaquina
(she having crew of sixteen mem will
not at present justify an attempt to
build Mp a trade with this section, yet
il is certain that a smaller steamer would
make handsome returns on the amount
invested by making regular trips up the
river. Tue people are mostly engaged
in farming, s.ock-raising and the pro-
ducts of the dairy. BY reason OF vicin"
age, location. and feasibility OF access,
| the trade OF that country of the future
belongs to Astoria, and little effort on
the part of those most interested can
easily secure it. IT'S country that will
| when once opened up, increase in wealth
| and population. From Hoquiam along
to Montesano, Sharon and other places,
| is o stretch of land that, when it be-
comes generally known, is open for set
tiers at the government price OF 81 20
per acre, will shortly be taken up. The
pioneers now living there are but the
ttsrof 1ouv rush 0f Uaves where soon shall
roll the human sea-"

The London Globe is anxious about
the condition of the English navy. 1t
says: I'm every essential which counts
toward fighting efficiency, the French
navy is ahead OF our own. They carry,
on the average, thicker armor and heavier
guns, their speed is higher, and they are
entirely armed with breech>loaders, the
type Of gun now universally recognized
az the NEST efficient for naval purposes.
Il does not, therefore, need any prefes-
sional knowledge to deduce from these
facts and figures the uncomfortable con-
clusion that France bids fair to have q
considerable stronger navy than our own
within q period which does not reach
far into the future. And should we be so
mad as to allow her to steal this advan-
taee. it will then be too late to remedy
the blunder. Ironclads take long time
in construction, even when all possible
expedition is used, and before our supre-
macy could be re established we might
have to deplore some grave maritime dis
aster, followed by the loss OF our inyalu-
able ocean carrying trade"

of success be "to be ready when the OPP

NORTHWEST ENTERPRISE a career OF
great usefulness and prosperity; for
nowhere on the surface of this planet,
will there be more prosperous section,

A fashionable young lady inquired at a
frst-class drJ goods store for nice silk
hose. The young clerk displayed the
articles, and the young lady examined
them narrowly, passed her hand down
one of them, and held them up to see
the length. Then she asked: "How
high do they Gomez" The clerk, not
thinking che meant to enquire the price,
blushed to his brows and stammered out:
"Well, really, miss, or madam think
about to the knees!" The lady's eyes
flashed fire as she cried out: "You are
the Ne plus ultra of clerks. didn't
know there could be such fool" and
cut she sailed.

A Brides Strange Freak.

Deadwood Letter in the Pioneer Press.
A very peculiar proceeding was re-
lated to me tonight affecting a gal
liant officer OF the army, brother of a
lieutenant at For. Meade, and one
out of which an interesting romance
might be woven. l do not care to
give the gentlemans name, but will
state that he is nephew of promi-
nent Union general of the rebellion
period and ex-member of Congress.
A year OF so ago he became enanored
with handsome and accomplished
Eastern lady, wooed and won her.
Their honeymoon was all that loving
hearts could make it, and their future
gave promise of great and continu-
Gus happiness. The lady was blessed
with more than ordinary musical tai
ent, but uncultivated, and to perfect
the divine art she was sent abroad by
her husband She visited the various
conservatoires OF the Continent and
finally located in Paris for two years
instruction. While there she was
reported as being very sick, and soon
afterward the terrible announcement
of he. death reached Lieutenant -
By cable. He at once directed that
the remains be embalmed aid re-
turned to America for burial, which
order was complied with but as the
gr;ef-stricken husband was unable to
go East he requested a friend in New
York to receive the casket and cause
its interment in Greenwood This
was done. Subsequently certain in
telligence reached the widower of
character that aroused his suspicious
and caused him 20 hasten to the b-au-
tiful cemetery overlooking the narbor
of New York, where the remains weIe
exhumed, the casket opened and found
to contain the decaying body of a
man. An investigation was at once
instituted and resulted in establish
ing the fact that the wife had eloped
with her music teacher, first causing
a report of her sickness and death to
be sent to her far away home, and in
corroboration of it had secured
corpse from Morgue, which was sent
as her own, with the result above
stated.

KUM rRoM OLD SHOES.

From the New York Post.
In the course of the investigation by
Mr.. Hills census deputies some siDgu-
lar industries were brought to light.
1t wss found, for instance that some
use was made Of old shoes, but exactly
what use was hard to find out. Large
numbers Of old shoes were sold by rag
pickers to certain men who disposed Of
them at good price. 1t is we'll known
that bits of old leather make the com
mercisl article known as Prussian blue
but only q few firms manufacture it,
and the new call for shoes was evident
Is for some other purpose. In New
York city and Brooklyn about three
million pairs of old shoes are thrown
away every yea-. Formerly old shoes
we're plentiful IN the cutters of certain
neighborhoods; now it appears that
they are sought after as choice prizes
In the rag picker's line. BY dint Of
persevering inquiry it was discovered
that the old shoes were used for three
purposes. ru5ts Gil suOcS uot OOhPict
ly worn out are patched, creased, and
after being otherwise regenerated, sold
to men who deal in such wares. Some
persons wear one shoe much more than
the other; these dealers 6ud mates for
shoes whose original mates are past
hope Secondly, the shoes not worth
patching up are cut into pieces; the
good bits are used for patching other
shoes, and the worthless bits, the soles
and cracked "uppers" are converted
into Jamaica rum BY process known
only TO the manufacturers. 1t is said
that they are boiled in pure spirits and
allowed to stand for few weeks, the
product far surprising the Jamaica
rum made with essences, burnt sugar
aud spirits A gentleman who doubt
ed the truth Of this story stopped re-
Gently at low grog shop in the neigh
bcrhood of the factory spoken Of and
inquired if they bad any rum from old
shoes. 'No' said the barkeeper we don't
keep it much nov; the druggists, who
want q pure article, all sell 1t, and the
price has gone up But We have had ir,
and We can get you some if ycu want
it," How many old shoes 90 to gal
Ion of rum could not be ascertained.
