BURNING or Eorp's BsEwERI.
Loss Between $4,000 and $4,000,

At 11:30 o'clock last night the clang
of the fire bell filled the streets with a
throng of excited people. Great
masses of flame shooting up in the air
from the eastern end of the city
showed that a fire of some magni-
tude had gained considerable head
way.
The department was out with its
usual promptitude. Rescue No. 2,
the hooks and 1000 feet of hose were
sent to the scene of the fire. Astoria
No. Ones were stationed at the corner
of West 8th street.
The fire burned with great fierce
ness, but the department, after arriv-
ing was able to do some service, the
Silsby being stationed at Badoller &
Co.'s cannery, and hose stretched to
the scene of the fire which was in Jno.
Kopp's North Pacific brewery.
The brewery and outbuildings were
completely destroyed, nothing being
saved but one of the tanks. Mr.. Kopp
estimates his loss at between $4,000
and $4,000. There was $2,500 insur-
ance on the building in the Northwest
ern Fire and Marine, Of Portland, and
the London & Lancashire.
The origin of the fire is q mystery.
Mrs. Kopp was the first one to see the
fire, which was then blazing up in the
blacksmith shop. The men had been
at work, as uual, in the brewery yes
terday, but no one had been in the
premises for several hours before the
| fire started.
Mr.. Kopp's dwelling house, short
distance northeast of the brewery had
q narrow escape, but by the strenuous
efforts of neighbors and friends it was
saved from destruction.
The Western Amateur band, of
which Mr.. Kopp is prominent mem
Der, had gone up in the early part of
the evening, and after serenade at the
house, presented him with handsome
silver tuba costing 1856, the present
of several of his Astoria friends. After a
parting tune the band boys left, and
were returning home, having got as far
as John A Devlin's cannery, when the
cry of fire" caused them to retrace
their steps, when to their horror they
found that the brewery was on fire.
This was half an hour after they had
left the house, at which place the
presentation had been made.
Much sympathy and regret was ex-
pressed for the hard working pro-
prietor.
About four years ago he began bust
ness and by close attention had built
up quite business. In an interview
he expressed uncertainty as to wheth-
er he would rebuild, but it is probable
that he will, as he has a large city
trade.
Coming just at this season of the
year makes it all the more disastrous,
but the same pluck and perseverance
that he has displayed, hitherto, will
succeed in rebuilding on the former
site.

TIMBER CLAIM TROUBLES.
Alleged Crookedness on the Part Of LoeatOrs

The Washington and Columbia
county papers are kicking up row
about indiscriminate location of
would-be purchasers of timber land in
those localities.
Talking of two 'locators," the Dem
ocrdt says:
We are confident that they have pre-
tended to locate men on land they
never saw. For instance: Scott Cor
nelius, son of Col. Cornelius, went
with one of their men to take a tim
ber claim. He was shown a certain
piece of land and told that he could
take it up. He requested to be shown
the different forties, but was told that
was not necessary. "Where," he ask
ed, sis the corner of this land!'
Here" said the alleged surveyor, as
he walked up to hitherto unmarked
tree and notched it with his hatchet.
Such rapid surveying was surprise
to Mr.. Cornelius, and he concluded he
would not take any land that came SO
easy. We can, if necessary, produce
numerous affidayits In regard to the
peculiar" operations of Stone & De-
Wolf, but probably the two following
will suffice:

Proposed Monument to Horace Greeley

The editor of this paper is in receipt
of an invitation to subscribe money
to help build monument to Horace
Greeley. The monument, of course,
is to be placed in New York City.
The idea is a good one, and if the
New York folks will build a monu-
ment to his memory it will be a just
and graceful commemoration.
But Horace is dead. He doesn't
really need monument. We are at
present trying to build a monument
in the shape of home for our family,
so that when six feet by two is all that
this little COB Of earth amounts to for
the undersigned, they will be provided
for.
That is pretty good sort of a mon.
ument, in our opinion.
If the New York folks will chip in
and help build our monument we will
do the fair thing and help build one
to Horace. That's fair.
New York City is the greediest and
most sordid community in existence.
1t wants everything at the expense of
the rest of the Union. 1t even tried
to take the Centennial celebration
away from Philadelphia; it envies
Boston Its Bunker Hill monument,
and Virginia its Mt. Vernon. Whether
it is General Grant, who came from
the west, or Horace Greeley, who
came from New Hampshire, or Boss
Tweed, who came from Connecticut,
that city always wants to collect
money for monuments" that are never
built, and the money goes God knows
where.
Horace Greeley, the great whole
souled journalist, has a great monu-
ment in the respect and admiration OF
a hundred thousand newspaper men
all over the Union, and fairer shrines
and filter memories thus stand conse-
Grated to his memory in their hearts
than can be represented by any block
of stone to ornament that foreign, sor-
did city on the island of Manhattan.

STATE OF OREGON,

I. Ward B. Swope, being first duly
sworn, say that on or about the 18th
day of April, 1889, I accompanied Mr..
G. P. Christian to Salmon Berry creek
in the Nehalem country, to locate up
on timber claim. We met Mr.. Stone
at his camp and he promised to secure
me such location. We went in by a
trail which he said passed through the
southeast corner of section "a, in
township 4 north, range 5 west. 1
asked him if he would keep the claim
for me until I had time to visit each
forty Of the quarter-section. He said
that was not necessary, and that my
wife could go to Oregon City and file
on the land without seeing it. Then
he gave me the above numbers and 1
returned to Hillsboro. 1 have since
been thorougly convinced that l was
not within several miles of the land
described, and 1 have reason to be-
lief that the numbers given me have
been proved up on as homestead.

By J. A. CAMPBELL, Deputy.

On the same subject the Mist SAYS:
The latest and most glaring case of
fraud is that OF timber claim being
filed on the homesteads of s. B.
Shelley and John Taylor, who have
fine river bottom ranches, two miles
above Vernonia, and have lived on
them for several years past, and their
notices for final proof are now being
published In this paper. It was only
by chance that they discovered that a
timber claim had been filed on their
lands for the notice had been sent by
register Burney, of the Oregon City
land office, to a Washington county
paper for publication. Had they not
seen it the fellow would have gone
ahead and perfected his timber claim
and when they come to prove up they
would have been confronted with the
fact that a prior proof had been made
to their land, and they would have
had to enter contest suit and be put
TO more expense than the land is
worth. Those are not the only cases
for we have been reliably informed
of several more instances where
doule filings have been made. 1t was
but lately that q timber claim was
located ON the homestead Of Thos.
Wilkes, ex-county surveyor of this
county, on the upper Nehalem, and
upon which Mr.. Wilkes made, final
proof over year ago. The Nehalem
settlers are becoming aroused and
some "locator" is liable to get severe.
ly handled, for they have it. hard
enough at the best to get their homes,
without fighting contest suit.

The British ship Flying Venus,
seventy-four days from Melbourne,
which recently arrived in Port Towns
end from Australia, recalls to mind
an anecdote of early history con-
cerning that vessel. On this ship, be-
fore the mast in the forecastle, for
eight months, there was woman who
performed the same laborious duty
that was expected from other members
of the crew. It was the vessels
maiden voyage from Scotland out
to the colonies, Just after she was
launched. There was beautiful girl,
Scotch lass, whose lover was one OF
the foremast hands, and who realized
that many years must necessarily pass
ere she would meet her intended
again. She was of a good family and
her parents objected to the union.
The maiden donned a sailors suit
and shipped before the mast, where
her lover beheld her after they had
gone to sea, logged out in mems
clothes. After they arrived in Aus
trslia they were married.
