The overdue ahlp Lea AJcipues, l;l daya from Madagascar, ia repcrttd to be In the offing. The arrival off the river of the Britisher waa report ed try the captain of an Incoming ves sel, but statements with reference to Hie matter are conflicting. The pilots and bar tug people believe a mistake haa been made .and that It la anoth er vessel than the Lea Adelphes. Tba Britisher Is on tha overdue list and ja per cent reinsurance is quoted on her. She wsa reported to have reach ed the Heads on Saturday, and the report doubtless resulted In disaster to the San Francisco gamblers. The British ship RodUrurst, from Motlen- do. Is off the river, with a pilot on board. Not' satisfied with the good work already performed by Its tar tur. Wal lukv, Ujb O. It N. Co. has rtwt.led upon still further Increasing the effec tiveness of Its service at the mouth of the river.

Police Judge Nelson did a land of fice ' business yesterday afternoon, the amount received In fines and forfei ture exceeding 1300. John Doe and John tBrown. who had conducted themselves In a disorderly manner, each forfeited $10 ball. pd. Ohler waa arrested for fighting, but the case agalnat him waa dlsnvkved. Ohler waa standing on Astor street whn a roan Mimed Andrew Hawley struck Mm. Police Officer Phillips arrested both men. Hawley waa released on ball, but neglected to appear, and ihe ball was declared forfeited. Ed. Hunter, who has Juat returned from Manila, after an absence of two years, cele brated Washington's birthday by get ting drunk, and he was arrested. In view of the fact fWat the skate was a patriotic one,' and on account of the further fact that Hunter had been in Jail for mora than two days, judge Netson gave him his liberty. Armed with a raaor, a stranger un dertook to carve his way up r town from tha Bowery Sunday night. : Tha man was full of an Irritable quality of boose, and It is remarkable that he did not Inflict, serious, damage during his exciting march through the streets. He started at Astor and Seventh streeta, going up Eighth to Bond. Everyone who happened to be on the street waa assailed, but fortu nately all managed to get out of the way.;. Finally, near 'Bond and Eighth, some one seised a heavy club and felled the would-be murderer. The blow rendered the man unconscious, but fearing (hat he might atlll show flght,' the wlelder took another awlpe at him and put him completely out of business. When the fellow regained consciousness all the fight had left him, and he meekly followed frlenda who appeared on the scene. County Clerk Whertty stated yester day that the tax roll would probably be turned over to heriff Unvllti on Wednesday ' morning, at which time the work of collaotlng taxes will be commenced. : The law requires that tha roll shall be turned over to the sheriff by March 1, but Mr. (W'herity has been ruahlng matters , In order that the taxpayers may be given mora time In WMuh to settle and take advantage of the t per cent rebate allowed before Martfi IS. Already more tlmn (00 re mittances have been received at the sheriffs office, and the deputies have several daya' work ahead.. Of them afW receiving the roll. . Deputy Prat! states that 2500 notices were aent to out-of-town property owners, and tha rcmlttalces now being received coma from ifhem. It Is probable that the collection will proceed more rapidly this year than ever before. Last evening a very well attended farwweH meeting marked, the close of the somlons and services of the tenth annual meeting of the Swedish Lutii eran Columbia conference, at the First Lutheran church, East Astoria, Moat of tha brethren apoke brief words of farewell, embodying thanks for tba hospitable eltertalnment of the visiting delegates, and not forgetting the pa pers of Astoria for devoting muck valuable apace to the meetings. .The various visiting members of tha con ference ' expressed themselves ; favor ably of Astoria, and wished mob '. to have occasion for another vMt At aU tha services on Sunday tha Church could hardly accommodate all who at tended. Yesterday morning Rev, N. J. W. Nelson, of Moscow, waa com pelled to leave on account of a death In his pariMh. Part of the day was taken up with consideration of pastoral toplcs.ln private session, and (be rest to social Intercourse. The remaining brethren of the conference leave this morning for their various homes. At last nlght'a meeting of Fern chapter. Order of Eastern Star, the lodge waa presented with an historic gavel of value by the past matron, Laura M. Louneberry. The gavel ia made of oak from the ship Silvia de Grasse, the wreck of which haa for many years constituted an Impediment to navigation above the city. The gavel waa made by ex-Flah Commis sioner Reed. It la neatly bound with brass and copper, a plate bearing the following inscription: ''Presented to Fern chapter No. 38. O. E. 8., by Past Matron Laura M. Louneberry. Febru ary 24, 1902." On brass bands that encircle the gavel are the words "Sil via de O raise, wrecked August 23, 1S4." The oak from which the gavel waa made wa full of brass nails, which wert removed to the gavel could be turned and then replaced. The gavel Is really a work of art and la relic of an historic wreck. The spelling of the name "Silvia" Is taken from the old 'customs records. Plans for the rebuilding of the Clat sop mills are atlll In the course of prepe ration. The work of preparing the plans Is very extensive and It will be some time before the architects are ready to submit them. The new mill will have a 10-hour capacity of about 100,000 feet, but more men will be employed than can be found in any of the larger export mills of the North Pacific coast Tha company will confine Its opera tln prmrlrift"y to the manufacture of fine lumber for the local and Eastern trade. The Austral ian market which now demands all the clear apruce thai can be spared, will continue to receive much of the output. By August 1 the new mills will be cutting lumber. The company baa made several big Eastern ship ments of late and half a dosen oars are tKtoked to go out this week.' The box buslneaa is quiet Just at present although 30 men are employed In that department The rebuilding of tha mills entail the expenditure of a large sum of money. Rev. Henry Marcotte, pastor of the First Presbyterian church of thla city. Is In receipt of a call asking him to accept the pastorate of the Presbyter Ian church at Moscow, Idaho. A meet ing of the congregation of the Astoria church has been called for tomorrow night, when Mr. Marcotte'a request that the congregation unite with him In asking the Presbytery to, dissolve his present pastoral! relationship will be considered., Whether or not Mr. Marcotte will remove from this city will be definitely decided at tomorrow night's meeting of his congieRa'.'cn. Moscow offers an excellent field for the popular young pastor, aa the state university la located there. Mr. Mar cotte haa become very much attach ed to the local church and views with regret hla probable removal from As toria. "Th?re Is Just one thing I would sooner do than go to Moscow," said Mr. Marcotte yesterday afternoon, I'and that is remain In Astoria and build a new church. Astoria lias be come very dear to me, and. while Mos cow will offer it wider field for work, I confess 1 am not very anxious to make the change." It Is just possible the congregation wiU take steps to have Mr. Marcotte retained here, aa he has been most successful since as suming charge of the Astoria church. The work of extendi) the street car system to Bast and West Astoria haa been commenced. Testerday tiec were distributed along the routes, and In West Astoria preparations for lay ing track have been begun. The West Astoria Una will be extended over Bond atreet. It waa originally the plan to extend along Astor, but ef forts to improve that thoroughfare have been Impeded. The Astoria EJeo trlo Company now owns the old West Shore Mills Company property and doubtless could get the street Im proved If It were deemed advisable,' but it haa been decided that ihe Bond- street extension will be more expedi ent Superintendent Coolldga aaye no difficulty -will be experienced in run ning cars up the ateep ' grade tw blocks below First street The Eaat Astoria extension will 4e made along the alleyway .running et from Mc Gregor's mill. It Is not at all Improb able that the company will soon aban don the present East End route eaai of the claim line, but the change fylll not be made at present Aaked how long It would take to make the ex tension, Mr. Cootldge said he could not tell until after the beginning of work. Weather conditions and the efficiency of the crews will have much to do with It Plana for betterment of the electric lighting plant have not yet been made publle. personal mmm WIMapt Summer, of Tacoma, la at the Occident E.
