place have been examined with ref
erence to fitness for a pet-houe and
In all of their bearing eo that the
these will be submitted to lb council
council may make a good selection.
The committee will not make the
place contemplated public and It I
probable that the council will npt do
so either, a It would cause annoyance
from persona who may live In the
neighborhood of th plan? selected, If
the epidemic doe not make It appear
ance It I probable that the place se
lected will never be made known. The
place to be selected for a public dump
ing ground stands In the am po
sition. Neighbors would also And ob
jections to having the place selected
near them Two place are In view,
but It I probable that they will se
lect a place and have It corralled, a
the necessity demand such a place.
The plan have not been changed from
those originally suggested, that Is, to
select a low point at the end of some
street In an Isolated part of the city.
Richardson I the name of a typical
hobo locked up yesterday afternoon by
Officer Kimball. The hobo wa found
begging from house to house end the
officer took him over to the station
where he could be provided for. The
reason Richardson I worth mention
ing I the fact that be Is a remark
able specimen of the "Weary Willie,"
He not only shows It in appearance
but hla ttatementa hav been verified
by railroad men since hi arrest H
travel by rail but be doe not ride.
He la not eaxctly touring the world on
foot and la not trying to break any
record In mileage. He la a walker but
a very slow one. He spurns convey-
ance of every nature. He prefer the
railroad track to any other road. Way
back In the lust year of the last cen
tury Richardson started out from Halt
Lake City. With anall-llke speed he
followed the railroad track and made
a house to house canvaas for ' Viand -outs"
of any nature until he finally
reaches Ban Francisco. Here he found
a home, It la claimed, in the city Jail
until the authorltlea found It cheaper
to escort Richardson out of town. He
regretted leaving the place but they
would not keep him any longer. The
Hint railroad track he struck led
north and he followed It to Portland.
He put In a part of the old century
nd the new on thlaa Journey. At
Port In nd the rock pile appeared harsh
to this true lover of pedestrlanlam and
he struck another railroad track and
It led him to Astoria. The englneera
on the A. A C. R. R, trains have pasa.
ed him and met him from day to day
during the past month. He has made
a close canvas of every house between
Portland and Aatorla and It took a
long time to do It. He did not let one
escape and up to the time arrested It
if said that he had not missed a house
In Asotrla on hla route. He carries a
mall roll of blankets and slept In
barns and outhouees and on some oc
casion made his bed wilder large log
by the roadside. He preferred this to
walking over time in search of a house.
Ills honor. Judge Nelson, will pass on
Richardson's case Monday.

Cditor Morning Astorian: In your
paper bearing date of March IS, un
der the caption "iSon Kill HI Fath
er." appears a sentence, "the city phy
alcian's address wa not known to the
chief." Remarkable thing, aa there Is
only one family in Astoria bearing
that name, and on the telephone di
rectory I am credited with two num
bers, one at my office and one at my
residence. Consequently, Chief Hal
lock would have found no difficulty In
ringing me up, as I know he ha the
use of ONE hand at least, and the
operator In the central telephone of
fice are always ready and willing to
make a search. However, the chief may
be a very excitable man, and on hear
ing of such a crime may have been
upset, or yet doea not know that a
phone I a very quick way of finding
a residence. If the first malady Is up
on him he require a nerve tonic; If
the second, then the management of
the telephone will Inform him. But I
shall now Inform those who tried so
hard(?) to find me, that I wa In my
little bed at that early hour, and that
little cot bed occupies a room at 723
