The drawing will take place at Foard A Stokes' haU on January 14, at which time Wise's customers will be given a masquerade ball.- ' 1 . A rather amusing incident of the football game yesterday occurred when one of the spectators, a resident of this oltv. remarked to one of the timekeep ers during the intermission between halves, "The Astoria boys are pretty well winded." Tne Chemawa man rue fully replied,, "That fellow that runs doesn't appear to be winded.". The Chemawa man referred to George Bar ker and bis opinion was justified fully a few minutes after time wa.S called for the second half. , , ' t Telegraphic advices from San Fran cisco" convey-the intelligence of the arrival of the German ship Elfrleda at Santos, Brazil, with , her foretopsail sprung. The telegram states the nec essary repairs will occupy about 10 days. She Is a vessel of 1649 tons reg ister. In the opinion of a number of the marine fraternity along the beach, the skipper of the Elfrleda put Into the Brazilian port for a trivial reason, as the foretopsail being sprung is not re garded as a serious mishap at least one that would seriously handicap the ship in sailing out her voyage. She is consigned to Balfour, Gutherie & Co. It is apparent that Columbia's en oute fleet is fated for detention this season. The French bark La Bruy ere is at Port Los Angeles, where she was reported last week, with her rig ging damaged and three months over due. The Berengere was delayed by rough weather, as was the Ardencraig. The latter had her bridge torn away and other Injuries done. Few of the vessels have reached port without hav ing sustained some harm. The Chris tel was roughly treated by storms, and it is thought others now on the way have been buffeted about more or less as they are a long while out ' ; ' ' The British bark Andorlnha arrived at Portland , yesterday morning and went, to a berth at the old Martin dock She is to discharge ballast before starting, cargo., The bark comes to Balfour, Gutherie A Company and goes to the United Kingdom. She is a craft of 3187 Was, nd has a carrying capac ity of 6000 tons. Captain Nichols com mands her. The Andorlnha was the windjammer ; that came, very, nearly piling up on Clatsop Spit when trying to feach the river, and had it not been for 'the bar tug' 'Tatoosh, might now have been stranded there or probably wrecked. .. -; . (:; , ,. '.. When an excited spectator Interfer ed with and blocked the progress of George Barker" In yesterday's game, shutting off another touchdown, the crowd on the sidelines' was very much wrought up. y The hapless spectator, who doubtless sincerely regretted the Incident was roughly handled, the an gry enthusiasts all cuffing him as he struggled back from the field. During the game he wa repeatedly Jeered, but had only a pleasant smile for all the abuse that was heaped upon him. The crowd marveled at this, but when It became known that the man was deaf and dumb this Indifference was explained. ' . "In a1 new role" would be an appro priate heading for s paragraph that ap- pared in" last evening's Portland Jour nal, in an artideW "Queer Tips That Won tle Bace,". ,Tb jparagrapi was as follows: "The fact that on the day the Empress of Germany died a filly, the Empress Frederick, was running at Birmingham was surely a singular co incidence but hundreds Of superstitious folk. deemed the Empress' death on ill omen and refrained from hacking the filly, which, however, won easily. "The omission of a comma after tbe word died, in the second line, changed the sense of the article entirely and con fers a doubtful distinction upon the Empress. .'.: . ';, ' - i V ' ... Chairman Keating, of the Commer cial' Club athletic vcmmittee, received telegraphic message this afternoon from Ferry Queenan, saying the well known boxer would leave Vancouver, B. ,Q." tonight., for , Astojla. Htr will reach this city on Sunday. ' . A pleasant Christmas party was giv en by Mrs. Joe Brown to a number of her friends at her home on ' Seventh street last evening. The hostess was the recipient of many beautiful pres ents, among them being a handsome silver water set 1 presented by the boarders of the bouse.": "This gife par ticularly' pleased Mrs. Brown and she received it with many expressions of gratitude. " The evening was passed in the playing of delightful games, and the usual Christmas gaiety prevailed ; The guests were:- ' Mr. and "Mrs. George Hill, Mrs. James Phillips and little son of Portland, Mrs. Wilberg, Miss Olga Wllberg, Mrs. Rose Crlspen, Mr. and Mrs. Al Paldson,.

A Teabo, who played with Chemawa yesterday, Is one of the best baseball catchers In the northwest. : He said yesterday tie was anxious to play with the Commercial team next season, and arrangements will be made to bring him down, For a long time he caught Sam Morris, the famous Chemawa pitcher, and would be a valuable addi tion to the Commercial nine. The suc cess of the club's baseball and football teams has aroused great interest In athletics, and Commercial will now. go in for mateur sport. With the besl bowling team that ever represented Astoria, the club management hopes to make a record on the alley? this season, and hereafter will have teams out at practically all periods of the year. It Is probable a field will be pro vided In East Astoria for next season, so that It may be reached by car. Con sidering the Inconvenience of getting to A. F. C. park, the attendance at the football games this year has been very good.. . ,. '. ,. ... . 1 Two bad men, wanted at Vancouver, Wash., were : taken In ': Christmas eve by Officers Gamtnal and Thompson. Yesterday morning they left the city In the custody of Sheriff E. B. Bier secker of Clark county. ' The men are charged with having broken into and robbed the blacksmith shop of a rail road contractor with whom they were recently employed. The men are Mike Luison and Jens Guddal. A third party In the mlxup, Oscar Lirson, Is being held as a witness. The three men were engaged In cutting wood for the con tractor at a point five miles out of Van couver. When they had finished their work they were accompanied by the contractor to Vancouver, where they vere paid in full for their services The presumption was that the men left Vancouver for Portland, but In stead of doing this they are alleged to have retraced their steps and broken into the bWksmlth shop of their form er employer and removed therefrom many valuable tools. The tools were tikert to Portland and disposed of to a second hand dealer for the sum of J4".50 After locating his property the contrac tor began to hunt for the thieve sus picion having been fastened on the wood cutters. : He was assisted in this by Larson, who deposed that Luison and Guddal had compelled him to act as guard at the shop while they did the dirty work and later forced hiin to accompany them to Gobel. Here he gave them the. slip and returned to Portland. The two mer are supposed to have walked to this city, and known that they shipped their stuff by the steamer Hasealo. A description of them was sent to the local police. It was not long before they were spotted and their speedy arrest and deporta tion followed. A most substantial food for grocer and.

Two of Sherman's horses ran away this afternoon as they were being hitched to a wagon, and one of the horses was Killed during the run that followed.' The two animals started down Commercial street. The lines were foul and the horses were un able to run straight, with the result that they headed for the sidewalk and ran directly Into the door of the Na tional aloon. One of the animals had fallen d-'rtng the flight of the team, breaking the right ' bind leg at the ankle. The animal managed to run on three legs as far as the saloon, and after being brought to the street was fhot by Chief of Police Hallock.
