at the corner of Commercial and Elev
enth streets has been purchased by
Dell Scully, who will hereafter conduct

about 5 o'clock last evening, and Mr.

business of Astoria.

At last night's meeting of the council
a petition wasTecelve,d from interested
property owners asking that an electric
light be placed at the corner of Twenty

mittee. There have been numerous re
quests for street lights during the past
few months, and members of the coun
cil have been Inclined to regard them
favorably. -
The police department for the past
two days has been on the lookout for
(wo crooks that blew in here from San
Francisco. Positive assurance was
given the force that the miscreants
were In the city, but careful vigilance
failed to reveal them. It is thought
that the men left the city yesterday
morning, but of this the officers can not
be sure. No attempt has been made to
turn a trick, and it is pretty certain
that the police will prevent the carry
ing out of any nefarious plans that
may have been on foot. ' ' .
It Is reported upon good authority
that a syndicate will be organized for
the purpose of purchasing the city hall
property, and Bteps toward that end
ave now under way. The parties inter
ested do not, for obvious reaslons, wish
their names mentioned for the present.
but as soon as the syndicate Is perfect
ed, a definite offer, with every possible
evidence of good faith, will be made to
the city council. ' , -
An election of officers was held by

Prs, Houston. They went as for east
ias New 'York, and from there went
south to Florida, thence to Cuba, and
hen to California. In San Jose they
saw Mrs. Houston's brother. Homer
Fletcher, who .is rapidly regaining his
health. When Mr. Fletcher left this
city for California it was supposed he
m as to undergo a dangerous operation,
jut the physician in charge of his case
concluded that It was hot necessary.
He will remain under the care of the

plaint emanates from Tillamook, the
conditions applying to cheese as well aa
