An English Samson.

There are many Delilahs, but only
one Samson, and he is performing at the
royal aquarium in London at present,
where his feats of strength are certainly
OF an original and marvellous character.
The spectator, as he watches, feels that
il is better to be friendly with such a
man, for with blow OF his fist he
breaks an iron chain that will bear a
pressure OF 5000 pounds. With his two
hands grasping short chain of $500
pounds ascertained pressure, he makes
a momentary effort and pulls the iron
chain to bits.

Origin of Kentucky Coloneis.

An explanation Of the profusion Of
coloncls in kentucky is to be found in
part in the governors privilege to ap-
point coionels on his staff ad libitum.
Governor Blackburn appointed sixty in
Louisville alone, with proportionable
numbers forethe back counties. 1t is
believed that no governor of Kentucky
ever had his entire staff together mt
one time. There is no public hall in
Kentucky big enough to hold 1T. The
Texas method is simpler still. You
have only to drink with the mayor to
be namod colopel on the spot.

A Simple Lamp Shade.

Since lamps play so important part
in the decoration of homes, ingenuity
has exerted itself to provide beautiful
shades for them. A very simple kind,
yet one that is effective and novel, is
made by covering plain yellow porce-
lain shade with a deep flounce of gath
cred lace. Around the top is tied II
half width of deep yellow surah, with
sewing silk fringe across the ends. 1t
is tied in simple yet generous bow
knot, whsch is spread out to cover one
half the shade. The same idea is
equally pretty carried out in old rose or
cardinal red.

What q POrterhOuse Steak Is.

Very few people who sit down to a
good breakfast OF 'porterhouse steal"
could tell, were they asked, what part
Of bullock this choice tidbit is cut
from. The "porterhouse" is that por-
ton of the beef either side Of the spine
beginning where the ribs end and ex-
tending along to where the hip-bone
begins. The tender-loin should form
a part Of the "porterhouse." This is
a narrow strip of succulent and ten
der flesh extending along and protect
ing the inner sides of the spinal col
umn. Its high price is due to its
choice quality, and the fact that in
the largest bullocks there are NOT
above ten to twelve pounds of tender
loins. The term ''porterhouse" is of
English derivation, and it has no
equivalent In either the German OF
French language, while, on the other
hand, tender-loin is known among the
Germans as "lummep and "fillet," by
which latter name it is known among
the French. The term ''porterhouse"
probably originated from the inns and
eating houses of England, also known
as porter and ale-houses. A custom
ary order was: "Give me a porter
and steak" and in time the name
"porterhouse" was probably given to
the choice pieces of steak as dis.
tinguished from the more ordinary
kinds.

Overland From California,

When the mail boat got down from
Portland yesterday afternoon the at
tention OF the writer was attracted by
the appearance Of two covered wagons
on the bow of the boat, and his inter
est aroused by learning that the Oc-
cupants had come overland from Cal
ifornia to Portland, and thence by
steamer to Astoria. Fourteen more
wagons are on the way from Califor-
MIA and will also arrive. This is a
new way or rather the revival of an
old way to reach this northwest nook
of our national domain, and if one is
in no hurry, very pleasant way.
The two wagons and their occu-
pants rolled on last evening as far as
Smiths Point, and the last seen OF
them they had gone into camp for
the night, on that picturesque spot
where meet the waters of Young's
river and the Columbia.

A Very Important Matter.

The MGnzGnttG came down yes
terday afternoon and docked at the
o. r. & n. coal bunkers. This after
noon she goes to sea, with a lot of
plunder, about 42 tons in all, of ma
terial and supplies for the light house
now building at Destruction Island.
This business of Juggling freight up
and down the river, and the coast be-
longs to the engineer department and
has no connection with the MG3lzG1l-
ita'S proper duties. The MdnzGnitd
is doing freight duty for the q. S. en-
gineer department, as the Shubrick
did before her, but there is an end to
all things, and now that Commodore
Griffin, the naval secretary of the
light house board has been out here,
there will be change.
The AsToRIAN has it from head,
quarters that Com. Griffin realizes
the loss Of time and neglect of her
own special work entailed upon the
Mdnzdnitd, every season by this
freight business, and Major Handbury
and he have agreed that the q. s. en-
gineer department is to have tender
for itself so soon as practicable.
AS in a good many other such i'm
provements and additions The As
ToRIAN takes little credit to itself il
aiding in this.
Now If the gentlemen in authority
will go little further and furnish {
tender for the Alaskan coast to give
the MdnzdnitG a little time to tend
to absolutely pressing business in
supplying buoys to the Oregon coast
harbors. they will be moving still
further in the right direction.
