The prin cipal business was the consideration of road matter. A contract was awarded to James Boyle to improve the road In district No. S for the sum of IJ20. A contract wa awarded to J. P. Ryan to Improve a portion of the road In the same district for themm of 1260. The road master was Instructed to Inspect the work recently completed on the upper Necanlcura road. An order wa mad that the monthly allowance of provision and money, heretofore allowed to the paupers ot tne county be discontinued after Decem ber SI, and ordering all desiring to re ceive aid or relief from the county to appear before the court at the Janu ary term. The monthly report of Roadmaster Frye was read. It showed thut the county saw mill at Jewell was ren.ly for operations: that the portion of road damaged recently had been repaired. On the petition from resident of Svensen for building a new road, the roadmaster said the construction of one of the proposed roads would necessl tate the constructs ot 1-4 mile of trestle across the ttdelanda as well as a bridge but the road can be reopened on the old survey by the construction of 400 feet of trestle and the building of a BO -foot bridge.

Miss Helen Hartley, as Mrs. Wilding. Is a very effective actress who does not descend to bathos In handling pathetic situations. Her work Was very good. Herbert Ashton as the designing butler threw rather more fervor into his part than might have been appropriae, but proved a very effective foil for Mr. Keane' s suave incisiveness.

Two Boys Run Away From Horn. A telephone message wa received In Astoria yesterday by Chief Hallock. asking him to look out for two runnu- way boys from Chinook who had left their homes. Their name were Al White and Will Alexander. The pa rents of the boys were very much wor ried over their disappearance and dill gen search was made for them all day. It was ascertained that instead of com ing to Astoria the boys went north, and had slept in a barn on Bear river the night before. No cause is assigned why the boys left home. After the tilt between the govern ment signal service bureau and the al manac prophets Is over, the public will continue to Judge the value of the prophecies by the state of the wealth. i HOTEL ARRIVALS.
