The Astoria Hog Factory Company la
alive to the prosperous conditions which
are umiui'silonably dawning for Astoria
and have In view tbe Immediate con
struction of a large box factory to re
place the buildings at present occupied
and which have become utterly Inade
quate for It large and rapidly Increas
ing business. The new structure will
be equipped w ith the very latest of new
and Improved machinery, Including.
Including planer and cut-off and band
saws. It Is the purpose of the com
pany, as well, to erect a commodious
dry lious", and purchase an additional
engine of commensurate horse power
for a vaa'.ly Increased output of the
product handled. The buildings' are to
b. constructed close to the property of
the street railway company and ar
rangements are making for a awitch to
connect the factory with the A. A C.
railroad, which will provide special
facilities for the eastern lumber bus

yesterday from Glasgow, Scotland, to
take command of the British ship Gar
net Hill. The pres-tit captain of the
Gurnet Hill has been III for some time

though lingering, Is not considered dan
gerous. The GarnetHIII has been a
reguUr trader between the Columbia
river and the Orient for the post three
years. On her last outward bound
voyage with railroad lies the Garnet
Hill encountered a . typhoon which
nearly sent her to the bottom. Luck
seemed to have been against her, as on
her prevlotia voyage from the Orient
to the Columbia rlverjlshe waa several
day overdue. She had" no better luck
on the Columbia river than on the
ocean. On her last trip down from
Portland she grounded at the mouth of
the Willamette and stayed there stuck
fast for two weeks.- She was floated by
the itatng tides but It Is now said she
was badly strained and leaked after
b-lng towed to sea. She continued
leaking during her voyage to the Orient
The Garnet Hill la awaiting orders here
and will probably be chartered to load

The Cedar street school ha lately
been the scene of repeated acts of

Some of these depredations have been
of a most serious character, window
lights having been broken, maps, blinds
A d doors nmeased with Ink, besides
oiher mls:hlef of most annoying char
acter. The school board'. has been
quietly at work foraome time, through
tl.e pollee department, endeavoring to
f :rret out the guilty parties. It Is be
ll ved that they hav. been detected,
and at a meeting of the board held last
evening1 It waa decided to Institute pros
ecution against the suspected culprits.
They are boys of mostly good families
and It Is a source of much regret to the
school board that It seems necessary
to make examplea of them. Warrants
will be Issued today for the arrest of
Wallace McCrosky, Cruse Larsen.
Frank Hansen, Dlck,.Pealy, Jamie
Robb, Lawrence Cosmo, Felix Cosmo,
