GIF HAS NO REMORSE MARKS GOOD AUCTIONEER OF ACCUMULATED ARTICLES. Police Department Cleans Up Several Hundred Dollars on Sale of , Confiscated Goods. Headed by Chief Gritzmacher, the po lice held their annual auction yesterday afternoon to dispose of the odds and ends tiiat accumulated unclaimed at the station during the past 12 months. More than 100 revolvers, - 60 suit-cases, 20 bundles of miscellaneous luggage, a dozen or more telescopes, all manner of satchels, several trunks and 10 bicycles, were auctioned ' off in front of the station. The buying lasted practically all of the afternoon, and everything salable was gotten rid of. Good firearms, secured from different prisoners during the year, went at ridic ulously low figures. No matter what the purchase, everybody In the crowd of buyers tried to appear satisfied and most of them were. It was the contents of the trunks, satchels and telescopes that the buyers were taking chances on, but their frequent misfortune in failing to land a 'fat prize' never seemed to make them backward about comtrg in "strong" on something else. The Chief proved a remarkably clever auctioneer and had no remorse at all when he sold some unlucky farm-hand from Oregon City an old broken trunk packed with old love-letters and feminine fin.ery. One man was lucky enough to secure a box of hat pins in a satchel that lie had bid J1.50 for. The same person -came back again and bid on a tel escope which, when opened, was found to contain about a dozen empty whisky flasks and five or six empty beer bot tles, lie bid as high as a dollar on this telescope, but a man standing next to him, who hailed from Astoria, went 25 cents higher and got the prize. Blankets and quilts went at from 10 cents to $1 a bundle. Bicycles sold every where from $2 to $5, and the revolvers, which were of every make and size, brought 75 cents to a dollar each. They were sold three at a time, the first set going at $5. Some sets wenr as low as $2. In ail, the department Is believed to have cleared up several hundred dollars.

ABERDEEN SEES RAILROAD BELIEVES MILWAUKEE HEADED FOR GRAYS HARBOR, , Right of "Way" Suits Filed and Sur veyors In Field Near Montesano. ABEEDEES, "Wash.. June 23. (Special.) Speculative rumors relative to the build ing of a railroad to Grays Harbor are again in circulation and are eagerly grasped at In the hope that some of them may be true. Following up the action taken last year to condemn land for right of way by the Grays Harbor & Puget Sound Railroad Company, this corpora tion, or rather its successors, the Union Pacific and St. Paul Company, are con tinuing the action necessary to fully con trol the right of way, which was laid out last year. J. B. Bridges, who did the work for the Grays Harbor & Puget Sound Company last year, has taken action in nine addi tional suits, and notice of such action was filed in Montesano yesterday after noon. Mr. Bridges is acting as an attor ney for the company that is ostensibly the Grays Harbor & Puget Sound Rail road, by which this branch of the road will be known, whether built by the Union Pacific or the St. Paul corporation. The residents of the little village of Melbourne, up the Chehalis River, are all excitement over the probable building of the. road through that place. For sev eral days two surveyors and others have been in Melbourne getting options on lands supposed to be for the right of way, and all their movements point in that di rection. It is reported that some of the men surveying and also the engineers admitted that there would be a railroad through that section by lfl09 at the latest, and that the work would be started, if not this Fall, early In 1909. The right of way has been purchased through the old Beaver place, near Preacher Slough, between Melbourne and Cosmopolis. NATURAL GAS AT ASTORIA While Drilling Jor Oil, Good Flow Is Encountered. For the past year a company has been at work on a prospect well on the Nelson place, on Grays Bay, opposite Astoria. There were surface Indications of oil In that vicinity and now it is reported that at a depth of 300 feet a good flow of nat ural gas has been encountered. Ex perienced drillers are at work on the hole, starting with 13-inch casing, which is to be reduced as the work progresses. The drill has struck a shale stratum which is said to contain first-class oil indications and the management of the company express confidence that petro leum in paying quantities will be found before the hole goes much deeper. It the gas flow continues to the extent now promised, it will be utilised to run the engine. The company has secured a lease on 10,00) acres of land, which is to be tested by sinking wells in dif ferent localities. Academy Adds Music Course. PENDLETON, Or., June 23. (Spe cial.) A new course, -that of vocal music, has been added to the music department of the Pendleton Academy. Mrs. Anna Selkirk Norton, prominent In Northwest music circles, has accept ed the position as teacher In this de partment and will divide her time be tween the local institution and the Fischer School of Music of "Walla Walla. A new instructor will also be at the head of the instrumental course, she being Miss Harriet Young, of La Grande, a graduate of the Whitman College Conservatory of Music. The academy has Just closed a very suc cessful year's work. President W. H. Bleakney and the other members of the faculty were all re-elected for the en suing year. Rejuvln aids digestion.

Temporary tracks are being laid in several portions of Central East Port land to be used by the gravel taains of the Pacific Bridge Company in its con tracts to fill streets and the low lands in the warehouse district between Union avenue and East Water street. An extensive trestle Is being built on East Taylor street between East Water street and Union avenue for the main line to carry the gravel trains direct from the gravel docks at the foot of East Taylor street. Eventually a track will be extended eastward from Union avenue on East Taylor in order to reach the several streets which are to be filled this year." Another trestle is now being built on East Third street between East Taylor and East Aider streets to carry the gravel cars which will fill up East Third street solidly to grade. These trestles will carry the dump-cars and will not interfere with the operation of streetcars. The main filling contract is between Union avenue and East Water street, Belmont and Hawthorne avenues, and will take two years to complete. This work will require more than 1,500.000 cubic yards of material, all of which will be scoopod from the bottom of the Willamette River, between the Morri son and Madison bridges. The company has completed its dock at the foot of East Taylor street, and equipped It with power hoists to transfer the gravel from river barges to the gravel cars. It is not probable that filling operations on the East Side will std"p now until every street and every "block In the warehouse district has been filled. In addition to the temporary tracks west of Union avenue, a track has been laid on East Seventh street from East Morrison to Belmont, on Belmont to East Tenth, and back to East Morrison street .to carry the Sun- nyside and Mount Tabor cars while fills are being made in East Morrison street east, of Seventh. Threatens to Kill Landlord. ALBANY. Or.. June 23. (Special.) "I'll blow his head off with a shotgun the first time I see him." C. C. Miles Is alleged to have used this language referring to W. S. Paul, a well-known man residing nine miles northeast of Albany. A warrant for his arrest on a charge of threatening to kill was is sued from Justice Porter's court here this afternoon. Miles lives on Paul's farm and the trouble grew out of this tenancy. California Men Buy Sawmill. MARSH FIELD, Or., June 23. (Spe cial.)
