AT THE. JErTY AND FIT. cANsY

General Manager L. B. Seeley, Of the c.
R. and P. S. N. Co., yesterday brought
to Astoria on the Telephone a party of
distinguished visitors whom he entertain
ed in his usual royal manner.
The party consisted OF Geo. D. Ruggles.

co; Governor McGraw, of Washington;
General Jno. H. Bryant, receiver of the
Seattle, Lake Shore and Eastern Railway,
of Seattle, a former newspaper mau OF

Of Washington, who came up from San
francisco and met the party here; Maj.
c. A. II. McCaulEy, quartermaster, u. S.

insnt attorney Of Butte, Mont; supt. He
gardt, OF the government jetty works,
and were met at Astoria by ex-Mayor M.
c. Crosby, ]. o. Hanthorn, and DR.. Null
link, and representatives of the press.
Immediately upon arrival of the Tele-
phone the entire party boarded the u.
S. engineers tug G.. H. Mendell, Capt.
Brown, and proceeded to the jetty. Here
Supt Hegardt, with his well known cour-
tesy, had a special train ready upon
which the visitors were conveyed TO the
end of the jetty and the work explalnd, to
them. The strangers were surprised at
the extent Of the enterprise and exper-
fenced a novel sensation in the passage
in a railroad train over the breakers of
the Pacific.
From the jetty the trip was made TO
Fort Candy where the party was re-
ceived by Capt Lomia and a salute of
II guns General Ruggles made an inspec-
tion of the fort and Its requirements in
the matter of increased fortihcatlons. To
an Astorian representative the general
stated that his department had made
great efforts for several years for the
necessary appropriations from congress
cor the Improvement of the posts on the
Pacific coast, and that there was q good
prospect now Of some action in the near
future.
An Inspiring sight greeted the visitors
to Astorla's great llarbor during the re-
turn trip from Fort Candy. The late
afternoon sun, as If in promise of future
greatness from the West, where the land
of the Orient shall pour its riches into
the great harbor of the Columbia, the
Pride Of Uncle Sam, vouchsafed q scene OF
splendor for his officers seldom If ever
equalled, even in Astoria, noted for its
gorgeous sunsets AS ball OF red fire,
through the hazy atmosphere, the sun
dropped into, the Illuminated sea, and so
read was the Illusion one held his breath
to hear the hiss of the water
Reaching the city the Telephone, which
was in waiting, conveyed the visitors
back to Portland. A sumptuous dinner
was served the guests by Steward Nc
Gillis and all expressed themselves In the
most emphatic manner of the good time
given them by the Telephone Company
and Its efficient officers.

ALONG THE WATER FRONT.
sUCH IS LIFE.

There was a grizzled fisher lad
Who sailed the ocean blue,
He wore pair of rubber pants
And a number twenty shoe;
net three hundred fathoms wide
And smile about as long,
He fished at slack of either tide
Singing the Norseman's song
There were Vikings thick as thick could
be
On this fisher lads ancestral tree.
There was a grlzzled fisher lad
When the tenth of August came
With hands as hard as Jumps of flint
And a weather-baaten frame,
Who stood and counted his well-earned
gold
Then smiled at the gingling tin
And wended his way to a beer saloon
In order to blow it in.
And the racket he made ON his annual
spree
I tell you, my friends, was a sight to
see.
There was a grlzzled fisher lad
Who lay in a maudlin sleep,
And dreamed he was back with his net
and boat
salllnS the Drlny ddep;
And many a memry of moonlight hauls
And Pacific sunsets too,
And glitt'ring fish and southerly squalls
His beer-soalked brainsweeps through;
But of golden sheckles there's never a
trace
When they rouse him up from his rest
ing place.
There was a grizzled fisher lad
Whose winter days were spent
In patching holes in his salmon twine
And mending many wrent,
And, as. he knitted, he vowed vow
That never again. he'd be

On an annual drunken spree:-
But alas he'll be up to the same old tricks
When they pay him off in ninaty-six

Company's steamer Columbia behaved

says the Call. Captain Bolles took her
twenty-five miles north on the coast to-

She registered fifteen knots during part
of the run. About 1000 horse power was
shown by her engines. Forty guests were
on board the steamer. Light refresh

There are eel fisheries on the st. Law
renee river, on the Canadian side, that

colonists, says the New York Sun. They
are the most productive eel fisheries in
the world, and are objects Of much curl
csity to tourists ON the st. Lawrence dur
ing the early fall season, when the fish
cries are in operation.

Captain Brown, of the Damson Hill,
which arrived in port yesterday was here
in 1877 as skipper of the ship Fill. 1t took
him on that occasion exactly 100 days
to get from Portland to the sea, and 81
days aftsr he had cleared from the GUS
tom house at this city. His long wait
was occasioned by the bad condition or
the mouth of the river, There was OF

The United States inspectors Of steam
vessels will have lively investigation on
their hands when they look into the mat
ter of the collision of the steamers Arago
and Homer at Coos bay. The captain of
the Arago says 1t was all the fault of
tthe Homer, which did not obey her own
signals. Monday the Homer arrived in
San francisco and Captain ]. F. Drisko
made "a report to show that the negli-
gence of the captain of the Arago caused
the collision. Captain Drisko says he
was in North Bend Coos Bay, at 2:30
D. m. Saturday when he sighted the Ara
go, slowed down and blew one whistle.
The Arago answered with one whistle,
but never changed her course until she
crossed the Homer's bow. When only
two ships lengths was between the ves-
sells the Arago blew the distress signel,
several short blasts, stopped and backed.
On the Homer the helm was put hard
to starboard. While doing so Drisko says
he tried to blow two blasts but the
string ON his whistle parted. He then
waved his hands to show the direction
he was going and stopped his port en-
gine. Captain Drisko says the handling
of the Arago naturally threw her stern
to port as she backed. The tide being on
the ebb threw her directly across the
channel. Then came the collision open
ing a hole in the Homer's starboard side
abaft the bridge Captain Drisko has the
statement of a disinterested witness to
corroborate his own that the Arago did
not go to starboard as her whistle indi-
Gated, and that she caused the collision
by stopping and backing at the wrong
time.
