The steamers Nellie and Daisy are

The w. X. Merwin will take the Daisy's
place on the route during the coming

Steamer Bob irving has fallen into a
good line Of trade. She is taking down

MILL RUNNING.-The ne sawmill at
Port Ludlow is now running, and has
been for fortnight or so past. cutting
the first lumber cut there for five years.
Only about halt the machinery intended
for this mill has been put in, and its Ca
pacity is not, therefore, as great as most
persons thought it would be. The ship
Sycamore has already been loaded from
lumber cut in this mill, and the bark
Hope is now loading. The wharf and
mill are all Lit up after dark by electric
lights. A new attachment of this mill is
what is called "nieger," and consists
of heavy timber armed with spikes,
which, at given signal, rises under the
carriage and seizes the log upon the oar
ria2e and turns it over, job done in
other mills by means of chain. Old
lumbermen are loud in their praise of
Port Ludlow as a mill site, and also Of
the mill there as lumber factory.

The EPISCOPAL HosprTAL.-The build
ing Of the Episcopal Hospital at this
place, projected last summer, was post
poned to 1884, when, with greater prepa-
rations, it was thought u job in every
way more satisfactory would be done.
The efforts already put forth have re-
suited in pecuniary help to the extent
of $4,000 and in a subscription paper
with promises to pay amounting to
$5O0O more. -Four han some lots have
been bought outright. The Biakely
Mill Company gave 1900 feet of lum-
Der and the Tao0ma Mill Company 900
feet of flooring. Henry Willard gave
$50 in money; $500 we're raised by the
ladies of the church in entertainments
and $500 by subscription. Altogether
the matter 10 in good shape for vigorous
work another year.

UNION PACIFIC ExrENsIoNs.-Notwith
standing the construction of the Utah
Il Northern, the Oregon Short Line aud
other branch roads. the earnings of The
Union Pacific ara no greater than they
we're two years ago, and not so great as
they were one year ago. These branches
of the Union Pacific in no case are suf-
ficiently extended. but On the contrary
leave the main line in as unfinished and
helpless a condition as it was before.
The Union Pacific at no point reaches
any one Of the large cities of the cOun-
try, coming nearest to doing so at
Omaha, a town of small trade and no
general interest. The old Northern Pa
cific management put forth its efforts
in the same general direction, beginning
nowhere, ending sowhere, aud making
dismal failure. The new Northern
Pacific is reaching for the trade of all
the great centbrs it can possibly secure,
and the Union Pacific will have to do
the same, or be badly distanced in the
race by its further seeing competitors.
1t will be surprising indeed, il this COM
pany does not make bold strike for
the Pacific in 1884.

EIGHT YEARS CHANGES the
old wagon of the New England Hotel
yesterday reminded US o: times in 1875
and 1876. Then the house was two
story. 30x60-feet building; George
Walsh was its porter and runner and
carried by hand, or ON wheelbarrow,
the baggage of travellers from the
steamer to the hotel. The house was
heightened 30 feet soon after, and the
wagon referred to bought. That and
the Occidental wagon, of about the
8 .me style, we're then the only two hotel
wagons on the Sound. Two years ago
the house was increased to 60 feet in
width, 10 feet in depth, three stories
high in front and four in back, and
thea the present coach was put on the
street. The onward progress of this
hotel has been no less marked than that
OF any business establishment on the
coast.
