Their first part waa splendid, their olio phenome nai, ana the arterplece which con cluded the performance, artistically ludicrous. Their musicians and their music was first-class, their costumes and stage settings elegant to magnifi cence, and taking tt all around, it Is a show which gives more for the money than any we have seen recently, and we wisn mem me success they are meeting with, which they so well merit."

I Even though the water commission fulled to do Its duty by the taxpayers and the pt-ople of Astoria, there was no disposition on the part of the city council to ''fall down" at the regular meeting of the, municipal body last nltfht. The members of the city council who had ben previously stamped as friends of the West Shore Mills corporation wero expected to spring a motion grant Ing the electric company a contract for IlKhting the city streets for at least one year, but It was apparent long be, fore the meeting convened, that there was little disposition on the part of a majority of the councilman to al low the city to be held up for the bene' fit of a private corporation. Summed up, the situation amounts to this: Councllmen Scherneckau Brlx, Goddsrd, Agr?n and Parker are championing the Interests of the peo pie. It cannot be said that L'tzlnger and Cook are disposed to stand against the people at the present time, as It Is believed that they now realize that the public is overwb.'lmingly against the letting of a contract which will compel light consumers to pay exor bitant rates for private and public il lumination. The council transacted Its official business under the flickering light of one coal-oil lamp and eight candles- Clerk Nelson had the advantage, while the handsome features of Councilman Cook, Goddard, Brix and Scherneckau were slightly revealed' by the light of candles. The other members of the council failed to bring their snuffers along and their presence was manifest only through their voices. A communication, under date of June 6, from the water commission, stated that It was not deemed opportune at this time for the commission to In suit an electric lighting plant The communication was laid upon the table without discussion. Surveyor Tee filed specifications for the Improvement of Fifteenth street from the south line of Exchange street to the north line of Irving avenue. An ordinance waa Introduced for the Improvement of the west line of Thirty first street to a point fifty feet west thereof, but on motion of Chairman Utxinger, of the street committee, the ordinance waa withdrawn. A petition for the Improvement of Thirty-fourth street from Franklin avenue to Harrison avenue was refer red to the street committee, A request that further time be granted for the completion of the work' was favorably acted upon. Upon motion of Councilman Utxln ger the contractors In charge of the Improvement of Commercial street from Fourteenth to Seventeenth were granted further time to complete the work. A resolution by Utxlnger was car ried that the city surveyor be asked to report the most practical grade from Franklin avenue to Thirty-fourth street.

At the Methodist church, the pastor, Rev. Isaac Peart, preached upon the text, "Wherefore, we receiving a king dom which cannot be moved, let us have grace whereby we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear." Hebrews, XII, 28. He said In part: "The value of a thlpg depends largely upon Its durability. We have received a kingdom which cannot be moved, eternal In the heavens. Earthly kingdoms, though like mountains of strength, have passed away. Egypt, Babylon, Persia, Greece and Rome, all have passed into oblivion. It irems the law of God that the natural Is to per ish, but. there Is to be one king dom which cannot be moved. Five hundred and fifty years before Christ, a kingdom was prophesied which should extend ovr the whole earth and last forever the Kingdom of J; sus Christ, a spiritual kingdom. To night, in actuality, It resu-hes to the very ends of the earth. The gates of hell hove not own able to prevail against It. From the time of Nero to the present day the sworl, the dagger, wild animals and 1re have been em ployed against It, but It Still HVei Im movable and stronger than ever before. Therefore we may have grace whereby we may serve God. The man who shouts for the Burs and Stripes, but stays at home, do? not uphold the honor of his country In time of war. but the destinies of the country de pend upon the man who goes Into the battlefield and gives his personal ser vice thrc. Bo In the Christian war. Having received this immovable king Join let us serve God, laboring for the extension and expansion of His sway." At the Presbyterian church the pas tor, Bev, Henry Marcotte, reproduced, by special request, his serm:n on "D'-ad Files," taking as his text Etcl. X. I. "Dead flies cause the ointment of the apothecary to send forth a sitink Ing savor, so does a folly him that is in reputation for wisdom and honor." In ancient times ointment was much more used than it i today, and was often very expensive, and in Oriental lands is now, as It was then, a refreshing and delightsome thing. A fly at Its best Is a troublesome and noisome thing, and when dead, forms an offensive source of corruption, so that the Jar of ointment would be un fit for use. So It is in life. The Duke of Marlborough was a famous gener al and great diplomat, but his life was ruined by his treacherous and miserly habits. Only a little fly, but enough to make the ointment worth less. The pot of ointment 3 there, but the fly had robbed It of its val ue. How lamentable It is that the great influence of so many men is spoiled by faults often venal. But the fly can be removed. It Is not neces sary to throw away the entlr ;ot of ointment. The little habits which tend to make our !ives Ineffective may be eradicated and our lives purlfl so that the' capabilities we possess may produce their proper fruitage." WILL HAVE A BIG PARADE. Ccmnittee Arranging for a Big Pag eant on the Fourth. The Fourth of July committee devot ed most of its time at Its meeting last evening to arranging details for the parade to take place on the afternoon of the Fourth. W. J. Ingalls, August Llbkc and William Larsen were ap pointed to get up a division for the parade from the Lewis and Clark.

Recent statistics prove that the aver age health and length of life of human beings- have grown stronger and longer with the years. In the fifteenth cen tury, there was not to be found a man or woman over sixty years of age. It Is clearly demonstrated that the change for the better has been brought about by modern ideas and methods. One of the agents which has been most in strumental In preserving life Is Hostet ter's Stomath Bitters. Thousands have died from stomach and digestive dlsor ders, who might have survived had they resorted to the Bitters. Xt Is the greatest of known tonics for stomach and digestive organs. It cures dys pepsia. Indigestion and constipation, and lias done so for the past fifty years. There Is nothing to equal tt. OSTEOPATHY. Astoria Oregon MRS. C. J. RAMSEY. D. O.
