Hutchinson has returned to St. Johns after an absence since August ad at Duluth, Minn. Mrs. Otis Learned was called to her former home at Skamawa on account of the serious illness of her father this week. E. O. Magoon has purchased C, J. Miller's cigar stand adjoining the Review oflice and took possession the first of the week. Hail the size of peas were quite a novelty on the streets Monday even ing. January just showed us what she could do before she shuffled into history. J. W. Davis has disposed of his fine residence on Tyler street to a Mrs. Dnrton for $2,600. The deal was made by S. J. Dowucy, the busy real estate man. Mrs. Sullivan, wife of Frank Sul livan of the steamer Washington, was taken to the Good Samaritan hosnital Mondav. suffering from a severe attack of the grip. 0 Now is the time to work for St. Johns. The new year has opened with bright promises and it be hoves us one and all to do what we can to aid in the city's progress. After a month's confinement to his home with a severe attack of pneumonia, J. F. Gillmorc, the well known realty man, is once more able to attend to his duties as of yore. The basket ball game last Friday evening between the Jewish Boys' Brigade of Portland and the I ire- men's Athletic club resulted in n victory for the locals, the score being 26 to 12. Building permits for the month of January totalled more than three times as much as for January of last vcar. This shows that St. Johns is traveling at a pretty stiff rate just now. The family of Ed. Rawson, the inventor who has an establishment at the corner of Richmond and Jer sey streets, have arrived in St. Johns from Lewis ton, Idaho, and have taken up their quarters in the French block. Mrs. F. W. Valentine chaperoned a party of St. Johns girls to Wash- ougal Saturday night where they witnessed the basket ball game be tween the club of that place and the Firemen's Athletic club of this city. All report a most enjoyable time. Whether the groundhog saw his shadow Wednesday or not does not bother Oregon people very much, because that kind of an animal does not make this state his headquarters. There are plenty of hogs in the state but they do not travel under that title. T. H. Crook, a former well known resident of St. Johns, was in town Tuestlnv. He states that Mrs. Crook is now in San Francisco on an extended visit and that he soon expects to follow suit. Upon their return he plans to once more become a resident of this city. Mrs. Eva Raccv and daughter Miss Pansv of Teffersou. Oregon. are guests at the home of their old friend, Mrs. B. S. Hoover, this week. The two visitors arc in the millinerv business, and are accent ing the opportunity of spending a few days with their friend while laying in a stock of new spring goods at Portland. The ferry will once more be in operation in a couple of days. Sev eral needed repairs have been made and the boat is now in good con dition to ply for another year across the Willamette. Its resumption will be welcomed by many who have occasion to cross the river from time to time, Prnnertv owners in St. Tohns who are desirous of having the street improved in front of their property this year should get busy and cir culate a netition to this effect. If petitions are placed with council now they can be gotten in shape for action with the opening of spring. The Odd Fellows at their regular meeting last week presented C. H. Thayer with a handsome past grand collar as a token of their esteem for kirn and for bis long and faithful service in the order. He has filled every chair ia the lodge honorably and well. At the meeting Monday night, after the business had been speedily transacted, the lodge in a body . repaired to Woodburn, in company with the Peninsula lodge. A splendid time was had there and a grand feast helped things along amazingly. Mrs. J. B. Campbell, formerly of St Johns but now or Hillsboro, just returned home from Sntcm last Thursday, after being at the bed side of their sou for four weeks, who was ill with typhoid fever. Mrs. Ed. Stockton, who is so journing at Los Angeles, Cal., for a few weeks, reports Having a splendid time reveling in the snd sea waves and taking in the sights and scenes of that balmy clime.

The Randall Glee Club will he here again to furnish songs. All welcome. The Ladies- Home Missionary Society will hold their next meeting at the home of Mrs. Ludom, Feb. ii, and continue their study from the book, "From Darkness to Light," which was begun at the last meeting. This is intensely in teresting as well as instructive, and a treat none should miss, Friends of Mrs. D. L. Pace from Hood UIvlt. Portland nnd St. Johns, gave her a very pleasant urnrUo Wpftupsdnv evenltiir. the 1 - - 01 occasion being her fortieth birth day. Mrs. rage was tlie recipient 01 several vaiuauicBBU iisciui pres ents. The couipauy:didt full justice to tue reircsnmcms served uy Airs. D. II. Shay. fnnv "stiff Mpplrs wrre nrmslnned by "rubbering" for the comet in the heavens the past week or so. It was citiitc visible to a number of folks in St Johns. If the scientists had not called attention to its nrpRiMiro it would iipvit linvr been noticed. It was never very distinct, uui wiiii goou cyesigui aim n strong Imagination it was quite discerni ble. A large representation of the property owners along Fessendcn street met In the city hall last night and decided to pave that street with cement and lay concrete walks six feet wide its entire length from the east city limits to Bradford street, and to trestle it from there to the river. This will be the greatest improvement ever attempt ed in St. Johns and the property holders deserve the warmest praise for their enterprise and public- splritcduess. More concerning this great boost for at. Johns next week. Noyes Babbitt has opened a stock of gents' furnishing goods in the Noce building, next to the post- office. Mr. Babbitt, it will be re membered, is one of the Willamette river bridge sand hogs who became paralyzed while at work, and was cou fined to the hospital for many months. In spite of the fact that he is badly crippled as a result of his terrible experience, be believes he is still capable of making a liv ing for himself, and so has opened up a store in St. Johns as above stated. He fully deserves and we believe he will receive a generous share of the public patronage. He invites all to call in and luspect ins goods and prices. o After defeating and accidentally injuring Kid Welch at the wrest ling match in the rink Wednesday night, Strangler Smith very gener ously gave him back $26 of the side bet they had on the result, and a few of his friends chipped in and made up a neat little purse for the Kid. whose pluck was greatly admired by all. Mr. Smith took the defeated lad home with him on the early morning train and is now see ing that he gets the proper care. The intimation in one of the Port land papers that the patrons of the match were handed a "lemon" is without foundation and is re sented by many of the club mem bers. The statement that Mr. Welch was seen on the streets Thursday morning is also false. Come in and see our new Hue of mattresses. Salmond Bros.
