County Clerk Wherlty Is In receipt of a certified copy of a Joint resolution pased by the legislature to allow Clat sop county a credit of $2594.64 on the state tuxes of 1S92 on acount of an overcharge having been made. The cmllt Is not to be given until the bal ance of the tax still due the state and amounting to about $2400 Is paid. A report from The Dalles says the government has employed Taylor Hill. the well-known stockman of Crook county, to purchase 1000 horses, with qualifications suitable for use In the United States cavalry. This order will create quite a market for good horses end will add much stimulus to the al ready rising prices of horses. The regular monthly meeting of the Astoria Progressive Commercial Asso ciation will be held at Its rooms In the chamber of commerce building' this evening. Matters of great Importance to this city are to be discussed and It Is the desire of the committees who have reporta to make that every mem ber who possibly can will attend. Harry McDowell, formerly a resident, of Astoria, was found dead In hl bed yesterday at Chinook, where he hsa been employed for aome time. Heart (linens la supposed to have been the cause of his auddn death. He was forty years of age, a native of Boston, Mas., and has been on this coast for several years. He had no relatives In thla part of the country a far ax known. The Alaskan steamer City of Seattle, which ha been undergoing repairs for the past two weeks, Is practically fin ished and will sail North next Sunday night for Kkagwuy and Lynn canal and the steamer will undoubtedly have a full passenger and cargo list, as us ual. Th'-' word tme on U'V Hkagway route Is held by the City of Senile which has covered the dlstunce In a III tie over thrie days, making a round trip In seven days. The prospect fir the ncorporatio:i of the village of Seaside Is enc .uraglr.g A bill his b-en introduced In the as sembly by President Fulton and In th houM by Mr. Hahn. As the people of Seaside are anxious that their town i hull bo Incorporated at the present session of the legislature, the members of the Clutsop delegation will see to It (hut the bill gits hrough both houses, Tlie bill will doubtless I reported dur Ing the present week. The city board of cu..lixution wa In session yesterday uftemoori to pss upon the assessments made for the Im provement of Commercial, Kl'-vcnth and Seventeenth streets. Objection to th Seventeenth assessment were submitted by Jas. W.. John W. and l. H. Welch and an objection to the Eleventh street assessment was made by J. K. Fcrgu son, 'J. Wlngute, J, W.

The attempt will be mad during the high tld.-s of next week and If It is not succsstul then the men will be discharged and another attempt will be made during the high tide of next month. It Is slated positively that President Mohler, of the Oregon Railroad and Navigation Company, acting for the Union Pacific, has bought the North ern Pacific Interest In the old graded right of way between Portland and Tacoma, which was owned Jointly with the Oreat Northern. The sale was made originally to L. Oerllnger. of the Portland, Vancouver & Yakima Hue, and by Oerllnger was transferred to Mohler. The entrance of the Union Pa clflc to Puget sound over Its own tracks will make a connection direct with San Francisco and will leave this territory on the line of another transcontinental road. A musical performance of rare merit is assured In the appearance here to morrow afternoon of Paloma and Kar la Schram, the child pianists, who have played to delighted audiences In all the principal cities of the country, and are now making a tour under the manage ment of their father. These Infant pro digles are known as musicians of the highest order from the Atlantic to the Pacific, and their appearance here, as has Invariably been the case elsewhere, cannot fall to draw a large audience, This rare musical treat promised to Astoria people Is due to the efforts of the Women's Club, under whose auspices the performance Is to be given. The program will open at 2:30 at Hanthorn's hall. Admission, 60 cents; children un lor twelve, 25 cents.

Is five months ago today sl-ce the big German ship Petep Rlckmers call ed fnmi Hong Kong f.,r this p'.rt. The passage I ordinarily made In about fifty days, so that the big ship might be considered over three months over due. The fact that reinsurance Is not being paid on her Is becaune she de parted from the usu il route across the Pacific, and struck off down the China was. Just why the master chose this route Is uncertain, but it Is sjpp'S d to be on account of unfavorable winds that blow over the North Pacific at the season of the year when the I!ick mers was getting away from the Ori tnt. Five government transports have within the past fortnight assembled In the harbor of Seattle to receive or ders. Of these at least four have been, or will be shortly, leleised from the further service In the quartermaster's department. The action of the war de partment In dlsp-naing with the .t vlces of these vessels portends a radi cal departure in the method of ship ping supplies from the S iund for the army In the Philippines. It is unof ficially staled that except in the ca-e of animal transports, the quartermas ter's department will hereafter rely on established lines of sUam.'rs p'ying between Seattle and Manila in for warding forage, lumber and other army stores to the far East. A very pretty home wedding took tdace at the residence of the ' bride's motjr, Mrs. E. Layton, 3S0 Seven teenth street, Thursday afternoon, when Miss Lorene Engle Layton. of Port land, and Mr. Elmer C. Smith, of this citv. were -united in marriage by Rev. W. S. Short, of the Episcopal church. The bride and groom entered the par lors to the strains of Lohengrin's Brid al Chorus, played by Miss Charlotte Layton, sister of the bride. The bride wore a becoming gown of white or eandie and carried a boquet of bride's nwes. After the ceremony a dainty lunch was served. Mr. and Mrs. Smith will be at home at 380 Seventeenth street after February 22. Astoria peo ple will welcome Mrs, Smith to her new home and extend heartiest con gratulations to the happy pair. Mr. Smith has for several months occupied the position of cashier for the O. R. & N. Co. in this city, and if his suc cess In that capacity as a very genial, efficient and popular official is an Index to the future, we bespeak for the pret ty bride a worthy husband. WHAT OCR FLAG STANDS FOR. Wherever the American flag Is raised in token of sovereignty. It stands for liberty. Independence and equality, What our flag is to the nation, Hostel ler's Stomach Bitters Is to the Individ ual, Inasmuch as It not omy gives you freedom from your ailments but pro tects your system in such a manner that they cannot return. When your stomach gets out of order, causing you to belch after eating, or when you are so nervous that you toss about all night, unable to sleep, you should cer tainly try It, because It will strengthen your stomach, steady your nerves, and Induce sound healthy sleep, and for In digestion, constipation and biliousness, there Is nothing to equal It. Rheuma tism is also counteracted by Its direct action on the kidneys. UP-TO-DATE COAL CARRIER. The I. L.
