IHILV INTELLIGENCER, Wednesday, March 27, 1878. COAST SURVEYORS Mov» J».MS - Captaiu Ellicott has his litr • *teain launch and boats on Crawford A: Har rington's wharf repaired and over hauled. He has also chartered the "loop Sappho, and wiil commence sur veying about the first of April. His operations will l>e on the inlet* of the upper Sound, near Olympia. Lieuten ant Cutts, in command of the ( oast Survey schooner Yukon, will commence about the first of May where he left off la«t summer, and operate towards the upper end of the Sound. Captain Gil l»ert will commence about the first of May, and his operations will be on Hood's Canal. The steam launch that Mr. Mitchell is now building is for Captain Gilbert, and will l»e ready by the first of May. Captain Lawson, with the Fauntleroy, will doubtless operate down the straits. Most of the surveying parties operating on the Pu g«:t Sound waters are naval officers de tailed for that purpose. Captains Gil bert and Lawson, we !>elicve, are the only Coast Survey officers who will ojcrate this summer. MKH. HORTON'S FUNERAL. —The fu n"rttl of Mrs. Dexter Horton, yester day, was, perhaps, the nrst largely attended of any occurring in this city for a lo tg time. The nervices were held at the family residence, and were conducted by the Kevs. Bagley, Whit worth and Ellis. The Sunday school clas* that slie taught, sung several hymns, and Miss Etta Whitworth sung very beautifully her favorite SOUL'. •'Only remembered by what I've done The body was conveyed to the old cein otry, and buried in the D. Horton fam ily lot. Thus has passed away one of our society's best exemplars: a truly de voted and unostentatious worker in the cause of humanity, and a nn.st estima ble pattern of Christian worth—one who adorned every sphere in which she moved, and her influence for good in our community will be felt, long years after the sod has turned to mould übove her grave. CATT. JACK'S COMBINATION.—AS will be seen by our advertising columns thin morning, Captain Jack Crawford, supported by "Miss Rena," the charm ing soubrette and great combination company, will be here on Friday, the 21>tb iust., und will nppear on that and Saturday evenings in Yesler's Hall in . two powerful border dramas, entitled j "The Plains: or the Trials of Death Valley," and "('apt. Jack: ortho Life on i the Border." We bespeak them a good house. This troupe will play only at Port Gamble and Victoria below here on the Sound; so that the best oppor tunity for the people of Ports lUakcly, j Madison, and Milton, as well as for those of Newcastle, Kenton and the surrounding country will be to come to [ Seattle for Friday or Saturday evening. From the reputation of the company uud its star actors, we judge it will be j well worth attending. THE COMMKKCIAI, STREET GRADE. —The condition of tbo lower end of Commercial street, from Washington down to the depot, has IKHUI all wiuter a discredit to tho city. From Main to King it is even now scarcely passable. The saw-dust turnpike has only made the natural clay mud the softer and j deeper. It is gratifying to sec the j work of improvement going on at last in that direction. It would, however, he a betterment, for tilling the lower ground, to remove at least a foot or so off the top of the bump or kuoll below Main streot, in the vicinity of the new hotel, instead of bringing all from a distance. Nothing can add more to j tbo prosperity of business houses along this portion of Commercial street than to have this thoroughfare put in a thoroughly serviceable condition. MUCH NEEDED. —Messrs. Ross and Minkl er are having the iron work cast and finished for a sash or up and down sawmill executed at the North Pacific Iron Works iu this city. The mill will huilt about thirty miles above the jam on the Skagit river, and be run by wster. The location is a tiue one for such % mill. The power is enough for more than ten times the capacity of this one. The way tho settlers are go ing iu to this Upper Skagit, a sawmill, for tho manufacture of lumber, will be hailed with great pleasure by those able to build something l>otter than a log cabin. Mr. Minkler, who was iu town a lew days ago, says the right kind of settlers are taking up lands in that section, and a small steam-mill is touch needed. STEAMER MOVEMENTS. —The steamer Politkofaky was here yesterday, and received a lot of hay and some work oxen for Mr. linpett's logging camp, and left for Port Madison some time during the night. The Weuat came down from White river yesterday after noon with a load of hay. The IWrylnMit Success towed a scow with *2BO M shingles to Port Hlakelv. The North Pacific arrived from Victoria early yesterday afternoon, and left soon afu-r for Tacoms. IN KUNNI.NO OKDEK. —The L<»como tive Bode will be runumg again to-day. The damage was but slight. The break in the road was repaired and trains ruumug over it yesterday. It was not the breaking of auy trestle-work, but tiie foundation of a new filling at the vod of trestle No. two that gave way. MINING EXCITEMENT.— Victoria, in c<>uimnn with ell British Columbia, is eierc s=id ju-t now over the Huartz question. A Victorian Ih< late ly contracted with parties iu San Fran co fir the construction of an im proved 20-stamp quart/, mill and a Bl*ke rock-crusher ; price, $25,000. A New Pest.—Though the cater pillar nuisance has somewhat nbated, ° u r orchaidists and gardeners this Spring appear to l*» annoyed by a new pl*giie, iu the shape of » little bird that nip« the blossoms off the cherry trees. At this nefarious work they •ecui to be as industrious as if engaged ro some benetioial employment. DOMESTIC INFELICITY. The Mail J records the ca s c of a lady in Whatcom county who, getting tired ot the un eventful life of A C RA nj-r's wife on the I y Ivan short -«»f tli« Noot«iek, suddenly left her qui't abode on that -tream, ;i!:d the companionship ot her di*conso late husband, riding astraddle on a cay use to the town of Whatcom, and tliencc leaving for parts unknown, i'he husband followed post ha-te, but, un fortunately, too late to overtake the ( recreant one. After giving vent to his grief and disappointment in a flood of tears, he took the l>»at for Seattle, and thence by the Panama for San Fran cisco, whence they lately came, in the hope to find her there. It is surmised, however, that she has adroitly dodged him, and will put in a re-appearance shortly somewhere on the Sound. NEW CANNERIES. Messrs. Sher wood, Farwell and party are making a thorough investigation of the most available salmon fishing station* here abouts preparatory to their contempla ted extensive operations in that line the coming season. Our people wish thera all possible success. There are millions in the salmon business on Pu get Sound, and we hope these men will realize abundantly on their enterprise. —li. H. Mai1. ....

The Waitsburg school has two teachers and 90 pupils... .Says a writer iu the Uazette: "Lumber scarce in town; not enough to make a batten door. Some one start a lumber yard here ; it will pay." Noit'rn PACIFIC IHOX WORKS. —At this foundry they have a lot of castings about completed for the Paget Mill Co.s* furnace. There are fronts for six boilers aud some other castings weigh ing about four Urns, the mill company saying, when giving the order, that they would send a steamer for it. It is supposed these castings are for the Utsalady mill. STEAM DRCM AND PIPE.— The large steam drum tor the Port Blakely Mill Company, made in this city, is com pleted. The same company will have made here this week about 140 feet of 8-inch steam pipe from boiler iron.
