The steamshlj? servtca between As toria and Portland and San Francisco Is to be better this winter than ever befbre. The O. R. & N. Co. has healthy opposition at present lit the . smaller vessel plying between the Golden Gate and the, Columbia, and the Russell Rogers line is to add another boat to Its present service. This company now operates the Aurella, which has been doing a landofflce business. The Ho mer, well known along the coast, has been chartered , by the company, and will be placed on the route October 1. It Is the purpose of the line to main tain a weekly service, and If the plans carry one of the two steamers will leave Astoria every . Sunday. The smaller lines have not carried as many passengers aa they had hoped to car ry, for the reason tnat there was no regular schedule maintained. How ever, when the public becomes con vinced that steamers will depart on schedule time, passenger traffic will In crease, the owners believe. Many As toria and Portland merchants have agreed to patronize the Russell-Rogers nine, the business of which has grown too great for the Aurella to handle. Twelve of the Commercial football playera were out for practice last night a( the gymnasium. In the front line were Roxy Graham, Sutton, Gammal, Bay, Haeckel, Blair and Johnson, while In the back field were Abercrombie, Tallant and Painter, with Stockton at quarterback. Coach Abercrombie Is anxious to, secure a heavy back field for the Multnomah game. Graham played right half last season and waa a most efficient little man, but if mat ters can be so arranged as to supplant him with t heavier matt forth big games and put blm In the front line the organisation will be strengthened. Both Tsllant and Painter are big men and, with Abercrombie at fullback, will provide Just such a back field as Is de sired. Graham makes a great end. He Is fast and absolutely sure. He never fumbles, which Is one of the greatest points In the game. Painter has here tofore played In the line, and he Is not anxious to go Into the back field.' How ever, he has tbe weight anj will be permitted to try himself at right half against the soldiers tomorrow. Hunt will be out for practice next week. He belongs In the front line. The men practiced signals for more than an hour last night They are playing fast snappy ball, and If Indications can be relied upon will give a good account of themselves this season.
