Mr.. John Wallace, a prominent fish
shipper at Kalama. Wash, gives, in
Ice and Refrigeration, some interest
ing facts in relation to the rail ship
ment of frozen fish, which may be OF
general value As our readers well
know, large quantity of frozen salm-
on finds it's way from the freezing
plants at the fisheries to the East. In
shipping the trade recognizes the fact
that fish frozen solid will in part re-
frigerate themselves. They therefore
pack them tightly in boxes and load
into refrigerator cars. These cars are
first reduced to as low a temperature
as practicable, and then the floor Is
covered with several inches Of chilled
sawdust. The boxes OF fish are then
loaded in, leaving a space of several
inches between the sides, ends, and
top of the car, which also is filed with
cold sawdust. Then the car Is closed
and sealed. No ice is placed in the
tanks Of the car, but it has been found
by quite extensive experience that tsh
so packed for shipment reach their
destination in perfect condition in
reasonably warm weather without ice,
and that, too. after a passage OF
fifteen to eighteen days. The saving
effected is the first cost Of the ice;
then cost of freight on the ice, and
also a gain of 1900 pounds of fish In
lieu of that much weight of ice, which
by the practice of the N. P. road is
allowed free.

Astorian building, upstairs. First
class work at reasonable rates.

The catch of salmon was lighter per
boat yesterday than for some days
past, fact due to the greater number
of boats that had been out the pre-
vious night. The average catch, as far
as could be learned, was five fish, av-
ering about twenty-five pounds, per
boat.
The steamer Harvest Queen went
down to Kinneys cannery yesterday
afternoon and took aboard some 300
cases. At this cannery there were
about 600 fish received. From these, 200
cases were packed. The Cutting Pack
ing Co., put up about 100 cases, and
Elmore's about similar amount. The
feeling among the Gamers has i'm
proved but little, and unless there is a
decided change in the tone of the mar
ket, the outlook for money making is
very poor.

One of Astoria's prominent surgeons
was discussing the disappointments of
life with some friends at the Occident,
II believe i am very unlucky," he
said. Last summer a charming young
lady was brought to my office suf-
fering from dislocated ankle, which
had been treated unskilfully. At first
1 feared amputaion would be neces-
sary She was wasted to a skeleton.
However, 1 was luckily able to save
the foot, which returned to its normal
position. She and her mother called
on me recently She looked perfectly
bewitching in her spring suit, and she
danced merrily about my Office to show
me her ankle was strong. Besides
the eternal gratitude of mamma and
myself and the check father has
given you, you deserve something
more she said, something that most
men would risk their necks to gain!
Then, leaning impulsively forward, she
said: You deserve a kiss!
Mamma, kiss him! and before
1 could recover heard. her tantallzing
laughter half a block away

CORRESPONDENCE


The following communication, which
was received last night, will be found
self explanatory:
Editor Of The Astorian:
Referring to the article appearing
in yesterdays Examiner regarding
charges said to have been preferred
against Rev. r. b. Dilworth. the ses-
sion of the Presbyterian church feel
called upon to correct several exag-
gerated statements contained in that
article. In the first place no charges
have been officially preferred against
him, neither has he been arraigned to
answer any charges.
The meeting referred to in the Ex-
aminer was held for the purpose Of
investigating certain reports emanat-
ing from a member of the church. The
session is Of the opinion from informa-
ton thsn and afterwards obtaHned,
that the reports would by no means
bear the construction that has been
uncharitably placed upon them, but
the matter will probably be investi-
gated hereafter by the Presbytery, as
Mr.. Dilworth desires.
1t is, perhaps, due to Mr.. Dilworth
to say that the announcement of his
resignation as pastor of the church
last Sabbath morning, was not made,
as has been reported. by request Of
the session. =

4 New Resort.

A NJ Dean, of Pittspurg, has pur.
chased OF tue heirs the Ley Estate
near Ices Ferry and will at once
commence the erection of large
modern hotel on the site of the pres
ent Ley House The building will
be built of stone and contain about
fifty rooms. The location is one of
the most picturesque in the Cheat
mountains famous for their beautiful
scenery. Hundreds of Pittsburg and
other Pennsylvania people take their
annual outing in this vicinity and
more would come if there were bet
ter accommodations. The new hotel
will have all the modern convenien-
cies of mountain resorts and will fill
a long felt want. All Of the heirs
except George Robinson sold their
interests in the Ley estate and Mr..
Robinson will remain and care for
the hotel during the winter. AS
there is plenty of game in the vicini-
ty the resort will be a popular one
for sportsmen during the hunting
season as well as for Summer pleas
ure seakers.

A MYSTERIOUS Animal.

For some days past some sort of
animal has been seen about the
slaughter house near the mouth Of
Smith creek in Greene county. A
Mr. Goodwin says he and his wife
saw it the other day feeding with
the hogs in the slaughter pen on the
offals. 1t is about the size of a good
sized dog, gray in color, rather heavy
foreparts, long body tapering to the
hips: it has tail long and bushy at
the end 1t has a slim head and
pointed nose. The other day Mr.
Naples hounds were put on its
trail. The dogs run it to near Levi
Ketchem's, where the animal and
the dogs had a battle as the dogs
came back with bleeding ears and
legs. From the description given
by Mr.. Goodwin of the animal
it resembles the gray wolf 1t may
have escaped from a show, and
an effort ought to be made to cap
ture il alive Monday number of
persons were out hunting for it.

A WOman's Apt Reply to Mr.. Cleveland,

1t was during Cleveland's first in
cumbency. The daughter of lawyer
prominent In a neighboring Kansas
town had married an officer who
few months after the ceremony had
been detailed to a remote post The
young wife who had enjoyed sort of
belleship in the semi-metroplitan
community in which she had been
reared, felt as if she were about to be
buried alive. Encouraged by her hus-
band and father, she repaired to Wash
ington to seek reprieve at headquart-
ers.
"Fort Riley? Why, that's pretty
good detail, ism, it2" aked the Presi-
dent, to whom the lady had stated her
case.
"No, sir; it doesn't suit me at all y
shouldn't we try to be satisfied
where we are?'' continued the chef
magistrate, with patronizing smile.
"You might have been satisfied
with being Sheriff at Buffalo, but you
wanted to be the President of the
United States" came the pert retort.
Mr.. Cleveland arose with the same
patriarchal smile on his face, but the
lieutenant's wife Is still at Fort Riley,

Sixty Million Bushels of Wheat-A
Bushel for Every Inhabitant of the
United States. The Kansas Crop of


Never in the history of Kansas has
that state had such bountiful crops as
this year The farmers cannot get
enough hands to harvest the great
crop, and the Santa Fe Railroad has
made special rates from Kansas City
and other Missouri River towns, to
induce harvest hands to go into the
state. The wheat crop of the state
will be from sixty to sixty-fve million
bushels, and the quality is high,
The grass crop is made, and is a very
large one; the early potatoes, rye,
barley and oats crops are made, and
are all large. The weather has been
propitious for corn, and it is the
cleanest best looking corn to be found
in the country today. Cheap rates
will be made from Chicago, st.
Louis and all points on the Santa Fe
east of the Missouri River, to all Kan
sas points, on August 80 and Septem-
Der 81, and these excursions will give
a chance for eastern farmers to see
what the great Sunhower State can do.
