glances with similar ones.

"Oh, do not speak to me here !" she
demonstrated in the same language.

only tell me where you are" he
She mentioned the name of their
hotel, and then seeing her evident
agitation, he considerably left the
car.
Minnie entered her parents room
with brilliant eyes and cheeks.
Il have seen Arthur" she cried ex-
ultantly, land he is just splendid :"
You seem to have fallen in love
with your husband, my dear" her
mother replied laughingly. "Where
did you see him ?"
I'm the car, and he may be here at
any minute. l must go and make my
self look pretty"
Then she hurried away, singing a
happy song.
Mrs. Tracy readily agreed with her
daughter when Arthur made his ap-
pearance soon afterward.
You have grown into the finest
looking fellow have seen for some
time" was the 1attering greeting of
his father in-law.
Il hope Minnie agrees with YOU" he
replied. How lovely she is !S
1T seems to be case of mutual ad-
imiration," Mr.. Tracy said. "And
here she comes to speak for herself.

stood perfectly still, but with eyes full |
OF JOY and wondering admiration.
They took the hint.
When Arthur introduced his Young |
wife to his family the second time. he |
was anything but shame-faced. He
looked as proud and happy as she was
sweet and tender and smiling. And |
the wishes and hopes of their parents
and friends seemed likely now to be
fully realized.

Tho Salmon Pack of 1892.

ASTORIA, Or, Nov. 1L-Elmore, Sanborn q Co.
have issued their annual report regarding the
Coast salmon canneries. II says the run this
year has been Unexpectedly large. Last year it
was almost a total failure. The season was at
its best about October 25 all along the coast
from the Umpqua to Gray's harbor. The run
prior to that was very small and discouraging.
Supplies and material on hand for canning sal
mon seemed overabundant, and it was deemed
probable that much canning material would be
laid over until next year. When the large run
did come it soon exhausted the canning sup
plies, which were intended for about half an
average pack. in expectation that further sup
plies could be obtained gradually if necessary.
Much difficulty was found henceforth, on ac-
count of rough weather. in obtaining needful
canning supplies, and as a result most Of the
immense influx of salmon could not be turned
to account. The pack 10 estimated up to the
present as follows:
