The newspapers in Portland seem
unable to suppress the small pox in
that city, but receipt is published
which is warranted to cure the worst
case in three days. It is simply to
dissolve cream of tartar in a pint of
hot water, and drink at intervals
when cold. It would be easy to try
il one had the disease, but as the
authorities are on the alert to pre-
vent the disease locating in this city
it is to be hoped no Astorian will
have the opportunity of testing the
efficacy of the remedy.

An Explanation.

What is this nervous trouble" with
which 30 many seem now to be az
hicted? II you will remember few
years ago the word Malaria was COM
paratively unknown,Cto-day it is as
common as any word in the English
language, yet this word covers only
the meaning Of another word used by
our forefathers in times past. So il
is with nervous diseases, as they and
Malaria are intended Ito cover what
our grandfathers called Billiousness,
and all are caused by troubles that
arise from a diseased condition of the
Liver which in performing its funo-
tions finding it cannot dispose of the
bile through tie ordinary channel is
compelled to pass it of through the
system, causing nervous troubles,
Malaria, Bilious Fever, etc. You
who are suffering can well appreciate
a cure. We recommend Green's Au-
gust Flower Its cures are mar.
yelous.

The board of o. s. engineers who
have returned to Portland from their
Investigation at Yaquina bay think,
says the Oregonia1,, that while va
quina bay will never compare with
the Columbia or the Sound, it is con-
sidered by the gentlemen of the
board as capable Of being made into
reasonably good harbor, and the
more harbors there are along the
coast the better. While Yaquina
may be made available for vessels
drawing twelve to fifteen feet, it
seems hardly probable that it will
ever be suited for deep draught ves-
sells, as the rock off the entrance is
too near the surface. However. it
may be possible to get q fifteen-foot
channel at low water, and as the tide
rises about seven feet, quite large
ships may in the future enter the
bay in safety.

According to instruction from the
council at their last meeting, the board
OF health met yesterday, to consider
means to prevent the spread to this
city Of smallpox, which Is now preva-
lent in Portland, and other inland
cities. The matter was discussed and
it was decided that the pest house
and premises be put in order. The
board meet again to-day to determine
what further steps may be advisable.
We have no smallpox here now, but
nevertheless everyone should see that
their premises are clean of all filth or
decaying matter that invites disease,
remembering the old adsge that ian
ounce Of prevention is worth pound

Emma Abbott in ''Faust" To- Morrow Nigh.

Expectation is running high in the
promise Of visit from the popular
Emma Abbott opera company, and
particularly 80 since it has been an.
nounced that Gounod's grand and
immortal opera. Faust" would be
presented, with Emma Abbott in her
ideal impersonation of Marguerite"
the loving and trusting heroine of
Goethe's work. The Abbott company
are especially adapted to the presen-
tation of this opera, and Miss Abbott
will be heard in one of her best roles,
and Miss Annandale, the superb
contralto will have a charming part
as Siebel. VIM. Broderick, the ma
jestic basso, Senior Micheleua, the
silver voiced tenor and the entire
company will be heard in the cast. It
will be the grandest musical event
ever given in this city. OF Emma
Abbott's voice the San Francisco
Argondut says:
Emma Abbott's voice is one of
those high sopranos effective in furi-
ture, abe is an excellent musician,
her pitch is accurate, her attack sure.
Her execution is brilliant and deli
cate and she sings with all her might,
it is true, but with ease. Her tones
are pure and clear, and she is pretty
sure to conquer her audience at the
close of her arias.
The ensemble of her company is ex-
cellent as all the papers and the pop
ulation have been saying all week.

The Astoria and Albany Railroad.


A gentleman from Salem says that
the board of trade met at Salem Sat-
urday to discuss the Astoria railroad
matter. Judge Baker, OF Astoria,
was up to see them. He said that
contracts were being let for clearing
the right of way for about 20 miles.
He said that they would have no
trouble in raising money to put the
road through, The Salem people are
doing all they can to get the road to
come there. They will, il is said, offer
a big bonus if necessary. When the
time comes for putting the road
through, Albany is likely to hold the
winning card-the importance in po-
sition arising from the junction of the
Southern Pacific and Oregon Pacific
roads.-Albany Herald.
