" The independent steamers running out of the Columbia river are said to be making great Inroads Into the traf fic of the O. It. A N.

A general Invitation Is extended. Some time since the Chamber of Commerce asked the Lewis and Clark commission to erect a monument at the old. salt calm. Secretary Olltner has replied, saying It would be im possible for the commission to do this, as under the law the money handled by the commission must be used ' for displaying Oregon's resources to the world. All efforts to secure funds with which to erect a monument at or near some of the historic spots In this county have failed, as was, perhaps, to have been expected. i-' Carlyle, whose guesses at truth were more accurate than those of most men, said: 'The fraction of life can be Increased In value, not so much by Increasing your enumerator as by lessening your denominator," And the value of your advertising ap propriation may be Increased, not so much by Increasing the number of me diums used as by Increasing the space used in t good mediums. There are many good things which might be ad vertised to better advantage than they are. Tom Richardson, manager of the Portland Commercial club, had written the Chamber of Commerce asking that a list of Clatsop county property owners residing elsewhere be. sent him. Mr. Richardson wants to get such landholders who live In other states to petition their ' congressmen , to use their efforts in behalf of Improvement Correct ClothesfirNen I cannot help forming some opin ion of a man's sense and charac ter from his dress ; and I believe most people do as well as myself. .

The Injury resulted during prac tice lust Sunday, when Stockton wrenched his leg.'. He will be laid up for a month, at least, and his loss to the team will be keenly felt. The football team Is to give a minstrel show to assist In paying for the new suits, and a committee consisting of Joseph Orlbler, C. H. Abercromble and P. B. Sovey has been appointed to ar range for the event. An official report of the work of the bar dredge Chinook during the month of September has been received. It shows that the dredge worked 14 days. although there was some fog on six of the U days. There were five Sundays and holidays during the month, three days were required to coat, and fog prevented dredging operations on six days. During the months of May, June, July, August and September the Chinook removed 123,171 cubic yards of sand from the bar, The character of the material excavated Is stated to have been fine sand. At the meeting of the Portland Chamber of Commerce yesterday, the navlgntlon committee rendered a re port" showing that the storms had washed away or made worthless 4000 feet of piling at the Columbia river bar Jetty, with recommendation that measures be taken with the Oregon and Washington congressional delega tions to have ah appropriation made with the river and harbor bill early In the next session, of congress to make repairs and complete the work In time to prevent further loss to the government and damage to the Jetty. The, report was adopted. 1 Joseph Harberger, who was arrested Monday evening on a charge of seduc tlon, was yesterday married to the complainant, Miss Mollle Anderson. It was stated last evening that Har berger had left the city after the cere? mony" was performed. In yesterday's AstoHah It wa stated that the com plalnant was known as the "queen of Skamokawa." It has been suggested that the designation of the woman may be -i misunderstood at Skamokawa, which annually elects a queen for Its regatta, The designation was In no way: Intended to reflect upon any young woman living at Skamokawa. While Miss Anderson Is said to have come here from Oystervllle, Wash, she was frequently referred to after Horber ger's arrest as the "queen of Skamok awa," which was an expression-coined by local men of her acquaintance. Progressive euchre and whist, play ed for prises, were denounced last night by Rev. Ray Palmer. , who preached at the Baptist church, taking tor his subject. "The Devil's Banquet." The, speaker was greeted by a large audience. Mr. Palmer likewise de nounced dancing, and quoted municipal authorities to show that the pastime has a decidedly immoral tendency. "As we enter the banquet hull of Sa tan." said Mr. Palmer, "we find the card table, the dance, the saloon, the gambling den, all apartments of the devil's banquet house." He arraigned progressive euchre and', whist when played for prizes, and declared that all who participated in such games are gamblers under the law. "An Illinois grand Jury," said the speaker, "warn ed the society women they would be arrested If they did not stop It." Mr. Palmer declared that the public dance hall was a straight road to perdition, of the fallen women of the American and quoted the chief of police of New fork as having said that 70 per cent metropolis took their first step down ward at the public ball. The sermon was largely an arraignment of popular forms of amusement. Tonight the subject of Mr. Palmer's sermon will be, "The Banquet of Jesus Christ." The public Is Invited to hear the ser mon. , .
