pupils graduating from the grammar
school earn year Is between 0 and 70,
while the number of ttlsh srhool grad
uates Is only about 10, This Is not o
favorable showing, but os muny stu
dents go sway to college after gradu
ating from the grammar school the
high school attendance Is reduced ma
terially. The high school Is attended

, . . .
As will be seen" from a notice p-
pearlng elsewhere in The Astorlan this
morning, studies will not be begun at
the Adair school until, a week from
tomorrow. It has been found Impos
slhle to make repairs to the building
irid the postponement was necessary.
However, all pupils are requested to
retiort there tomorrow morning for en
rollment, v.." '
To take the place of the Italian hand
which proved such a success at the
Star Manager Oevurta haa secured two
of the sweetest singers and most re
nowned sensational dsncers on the
American vaudeville stage. They will
appear at today's matinee and at to
night's shows. Star Patrons are assured
t a rare treat In the appearance of
Miss Winifred Lamar, the famous
soubrette, .and Mist Helen Trenvllle,'
the sweet soprano, , );
Henry Welnhard's condition does not
chant t for the better, and little hope Is
entertained for his recovery, He has
been confined to his bed for tbo past
two weeks at hit home, 21 North Thir
teenth street, but no serlout results
were feared by hit relatives, as he had
several severe spells within the past
year and gotten over them. The mal
ady from which he suffers Is a form
of rheumatism, though this Is aggra
vated by a general decline resulting
from advanced years, as Mr, Welnhard
is now psst 74.' Dr. A, B. Nichols, who
Is In attendance, said: "Mr. Weln
hard's condition Is very serious. H
may live for two weks, and he may die
at any time." ' ' ,
School Clerk E. Z. Ferguson gives
notice to patrons of the Adair school
that owing to the unfinished condition
of the building It will be Impossible
to hold School during the coming
week, The pupils are requested to as
semble at their rooms, however, on to
morrow morning to be registered, after
which they will be dismissed until the
following Monday, September 20.
Mr, EL C. Holden yesterday cele
brated his 80th birth 'In y anniversary.
He has bean a resident of Astoria for
30 years and long one of Its most prom
inent men commercially. For many
years he was secretary of the Chamber
of Commerce, but stepped down a year
ago. Mr- Holden Is enjoying fairly good
health, and during , the recent fine
weather has spent ' much of his time
nut of dours. Muny of his friends yes
terday called to congratulate him upon
the ocpiimIoii. of his blrthiliiy celebra
tion. .
It on the stage. He looks funny and
acts funny, and his fun Is Irresistibly
contagious, Scott hat somt new tongs
for thi week. At usual they will be
illustrated with projected pictures. Then
there will be Stanley Scanlon. They
play on funny and strange Instruments
of all sorts, The melody they manu
facture Is of the real brand and they nl
ways please. Winifred Lamar Is i
clever little girl. She sings and she
dances and she does some contortion
work. They like her wherever the
goet, The marvellous Kingdom, In i
novelty bicycle act will give a per
romance different from anything In
the trick bicycle line ever seen here,
and one that will astound all beholders.
The things Kingdom can't do with
wheel are not worth mentioning. His
is truly a glttedged performance. A
new lot of pictures will be shown on
the bioscope. Astorians generally have
acquired the Star habit The patronage
of the cosy theater hat steadily grown
since the first week, which shows that
the people appreciate and will patronize
good, clean, clever vaudeville. V
PERSONAL MENTION.
Columbia river bar pilots will make
eh effort to Induce the commanJer of
the KuHnlun crulxer Korea to come Into
this port should the war vernal show
up off the Columbia. The Korea is
supposed to be hovering around some
where off the north Pacific coast, and
there Is good reason to believe that she
will not go Into Victoria, but put In
at an American port. The pilots feel
that one Russian warship Is enough,for
San Francisco, so If the Korea shows
up she will be Invited into Astoria. The
chances are she wilt be a regatta at
traction next year If she comes here.
Today's football game will be of im
portance as giving enthusiasts a line
on the various men. The field will be
fast and the game ought to be exciting.
The Commercial team will line up about
as follows: Center, Bay; guards, Gam-
mal and Haeckel; tackles, Blair anJ
Sutton; ends, Graham and Johnson:
quarterback, Stockton; fullback, Aber-
cromble: halfbacks, Tatlant and Paint
er. The line up of the Forf Stevens
team hat not been learned, but It la
understood the soldiers are determined
to win. The game will be called at I
o'clock and It Is expected a big crowd
will be out . v
