A TnA1NwRECK,
The Engine and Nine Cars Thrown off
the Track.

the Track.
CASTLE Rock, Dec. 23.-Yester-
day at 5 80 p. M, freight No. 81, on the
Northern Pacific, ran into slide quar-
ter of mile north of Castle Rock, strik-
ing large stump, and throwing the en-
CINE and nine cars from the track. Five
cars are down fifteen foot bank, partly
in the river. Two cars foated away.
The engine lays on its side on the side
of the track. There were five tramps on
the train. Three got out. One Is badly
hurt, another has broken leg, and the
other, negro, is all o. K. Two are
supposed to be drowned and in the car
that foated away. The fireman, engi-
neer ond one brakeman were completely
buried under the wreck, but the entire
crew escaped serious injury. The cars
that are off the track are badly broken.
A wrecking crew arrived at l a. IN. this
morning, and by hard work will have
the track rebuilt SO that trains can pass
by at p. m. today. There were four
slides between Castle Rock an: Kelso.
that delayed the passenger train from
Portland about five hours in arriving
here last night. The rain yesterday was
a constant pour down along the section.

SAN Francisco, Dec. 24.-The flag
ship San Francisco will sail at noon on
Saturday next, unless contradictory or
ders are received. AS her orders are
sealed, her destination is a matter of
conjecture, but there is little doubt but
that she is bound for Chilli. 1t is ex-
pected that supplies and mail for the
steamship Charleston will be transferred
to that vessel, probably at Acapulco.

Lost in the Fog.

LONDON, Dec. 24.-The fog that set
tied down over the city Tuesday last still
hangs over it and everywhere it is as
black as night. Business is interrupted
and the money loss is serious as people
will not venture out even to make
Christmas purchases. The saddest feat
ure of the situation is the great loss of
life caused by persons losing their way
and wandering into rivers, canals and
ponds. Already seven bodies of unfortu-
mates who have fallen into the river and
drowned have been recovered. Four
other men and girls are reported missing
and there is scarcely any doubt they
perished as the others did.
A dispatch from Leeds this morning
states, that three men, while walking
beside. the canal, lost their way in the
fog and fell into the water and were
drowned. There has been several per-
sons killed on the railways.

special says: s'There are some facts
that point strongly to the probability of

ing recruits in squads of forty or fifty as
rapidly as possible to fill complete regi-
ments. ''In the far west and on the
Pacific, - General Schofield said: "There
are 10, 900 men available to send out of
the country, but no more could be spared
from the general army" Gun carriages
are being shipped to San Francisco, in
sections and guns will follow at an early
date. General Schofeld has been twice
summoned before the cabinet and has
given it as his opinion that if ten thous-
and men are sent out of the country, it
will be quite possible to fill their places
in the regular army at home by the tenn
porary enlistments from the militia. A
certain quota of the regulars equipped
for actual service at army posts are to be
called for from each state. In case the
10000 men transported to Chill should
not be enough, it is reported that the
president may call for 10000 volunteers
for one year.

The Administration I. weary.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 24.-It is stated
semi-offcially that the patience of the
administration is nearly exhausted re-
garding the Chilian situation. Secre-
tary Blaine is now at work on an Amer
lean view of the case, and, when fin
ished, the president will incorporate it
in special message to congress. The
case will be such that congress can
take but one view. There is no doubt
among the foreign legation here whose
opinions are of any consequence, that
the United States must hold Chilli re-
sponsible for the violence of its mob, or
fail to perform its duty under the inter-
national stipulations.

The Best Teapot.

The Chinese invariably use a
teaport Of porcelain or earthen-
ware. This is the only suitable
material to make tea in, and COM
mon brown teapot is to be pre-
ferred to silver for this purpose, as
the tannic acid of tea unites with
silver or any metal and invariably
corrodes it. This can be proved
by inspecting any metal teapot
long in use. Very dainty Japanese
teapots can now be bought for %
cents in blue and white Owali ware,
large enough for family of four.
If large teapot is desired, it costs
but little more After the tea is
made and served, such pot should
be emptied out at once, and washed
and wiped inside and out. instead
of being left, as it often is, in other
wise neat families, standing with
the tea grounds in it till the next
meal. 1t is as essential that a cot
fee-pot should be of stoneware or
china as u teaport.

One Virtue of Our Grandfathers.
Our grandfathers did one thing
better than we do--they knew how
to live in two rooms and save
money, while we live in ten, get
into debt, keep our noses to the
grindstone and at last burst all to
pieces like an over-inflated soap
hubble. 1t takes more courage for
an ambitious young man to live on
S 900 a year and keep clear OF en-
barrassments and temptations than
to hunt lions in Africa or tigers in
India. The stiff backbone which
enables fellow to endure ridicule
because he is poor, and do it cheer
fully,is the choicest donation which
Providence ever made to any man.

The Parent of Insomnia.

The parent of insomnia or wakeful- ness is ill nine cases out of ten a dys- peptic stomach. Good digestion gives sound sleep, indigestion interferes with it. The brain and stomach sympathiz- es. One of the prominent symptoms of a weak state of the gastric organs is a disturbance of the great nerve entrepot, the brain. Invigorate the stomach, and you restore equilibrium to the great cen tre. A most reliable medicine for the purpose is Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, which is far preferable to mineral seda lives and powerful narcotics which, though they may for time exert so- porific influence upon the braIn, soon cease to act, and invariably injure the tone of the stomach. The Bitters, on the contrary, restore activity to the op- erations of that all-important organ, and their benefcent influence is reflect ed in sound sleep and tranquil state of the nervous system. 4 wholesome inn petus is likewise given to the liver and bowels by it's use.

Paragraph 397, Sec. t7, clause 2 of the Revised States is as follows:
 To make and enforce such rules and regulations for the government of their body, the preservation of order and the transaction of business as may be nec- essary.
 In view of the experience of the past six months, we would advise the Board to pass a rule compelling the lower house to retire to it's own chamber, en- act such legislation as they in their wis dom thought best for the good and well fare of their small constituency, and send it up for concurrence or rejection. through some authorized and recognized channel. The machinery would then run smoother and there would be more accomplished in two days than is now done in a week.

The lower house of the Board of Su- pervisors have been very busy during the session just ended. They made a particularly hard fight to have the rate of taxation fixed at four cents, and would have done so, had it not been for the noble fight made by the COW boy member of the Board, R. c. Blassin- game. Their object in trying to fix this high rate of taxation was two fold The principal reason being that the Tax Col lector receives three and a half cents for collection, and this would have in- creased his perquisites by one-fourth. Another consideration was the political capital it would have afforded them in the general election next year. It is as- tonishing that one member of the Board failed to see through their object and was more than half inclined to aid and assist them in their little scheme.
