Dev lin, Is being retouched preparatory to be ing submitted to the Council and finally to the people o that new city. The t barter committee was fortunate In se curing Mr. Devlin's aid in framing the (barter, as he has accurMe and full knowledge of the wants of a municipal government Insofar as he assisted in drafting the Portland charter. The com mittee Is gratified that the work Is so noar completed that the charter may soon be submitted. At a meeting of the com mittee a few evenings ago with Mr. Dev lin and several interested citizens, some of the provisions were gone over and bevoral changes agreed upon. On the whole. It is considered probable that the charter will be adopted with but a few changes here and there. "When submitted to the public there will probably be ob jections to some clauses. It is expected that the Council will hold a special meet ing to consider the charter. "Under the now charter the first election of city officers of St. Johns will be held the first Monday in April, 1903. Petition for School. Addition. A pe tion to the Board of Education has been circulated in Upper Alblna asking that an addition to the Williams-Avenue School be built during the coming vaca tion.

There are 17 rooms at present, occu pied with about 900 pupils, two outside rlasssrooms being on the school ground. In a short time a public meeting will be held in the neighborhood to show the de sire of the people. "Work of Vandax. "Windows of the Scandinavian Church, on East Grant and Tenth streets, were broken by young vandals one night last week. The loss Is very severe, as most of the windows broken were art glass and costly. A police officer has boon detailed to Inves tigate the outrage and he has obtained the names of several boys supposed to be implicated. It is considered probable thttt the offenders will be arrested. This church was recently completed at large expense and the pastor and congregation are indignant that it should thus be marred. Mili, "Wheels Turn. The machinery of the new flour mill of the Jobes Mill Company, In St. Johns, was started up Thursday, for the first time, to warm up the bearings.

Although to day marks the end of the time allowed for the consideration of the differences existing between the Franklin as sociation and the Job printers in Portland, there seems to be but little chance of a settlement today. The printers still hold to their original demand for an eight-hour day, while the association shows no apparent Inclination to recede from Its proposition of a nine hour day. The question of hours seems to be the only difficulty, but unless this can be adjusted It is said that the print ers will walk out. The rumor of a lock out appears to lack confirmation, and the officials of the association disclaim any thought of taking such a step. Elect New Officers. At the annual business meeting of the Grace M. E. Sunday school, held last night, the fol lowing officers were elected to serve dur ing 1903: Miss Carrie A. Holbrook, super intendent; Walter J.

With the abatement of the storm off the mouth of the Columbia the destruc tion of the Jettv suDcrstrueture hp- comes more evident. While the stone work, as far as can be seen at this time, is undamaged, practically all of the trestle and track work has been swept away. It has not been learned definitely yet Just how much of the track nnd trnstlft is left, but there Is very little of it anu it is aouuLiui u uus will stand much lontrer now. The weather officials renort that there is but 500 toM. of last year's trestle work left, while Major vv. i. iangnit nas received reports that there is at least 2500 feet left stand ings It is ltnown, however-, that over 4000 feet was carried away in the storm of Thursday night. As soon as the weather permits an investigation of the jetty will be made by the United States Engineer's denartmnnt with fh object of ascertaining- the extent of the ioss ana jusi wnat ropairs will be needed. It is the opinion of the department officials that it will take at least two months or more to repair the damage done by the recent storms. This will be a serious setback to the extension work planned for next vonr. sin.n ii the track and trestle washed out must ne repiaceu before actual extension worK on me jetty can begin.

The United States Engineer's office yesterday, issued an advertisement for bids for furnishing and delivering stone foretty construction during the coming year. Bids will be received until 11 A. M., January 31, 1905. While the quantity of stone to be furnished Is dependent upon the ap propriation received from Congress, It is thought that at least 600,000 tons will be required, and bidders are asked to figure on this amount as an approximate basis. Delivery of the stone Is to be made either by rail or water at Fort Stevens, Or., and should begin by April 1, 1905. WHERE TO DENE.
