Suffering of a Lees I Party en Weedy lelnd. Jack Johnson, Frank Cook, Bob Mc Laln and Lem House returned from snip hunt to Woody Island, having been gone three daya They tell a thrilling story of hardship and disaster. Johnson broke his life preserver which he carried In a side pocket, and then there wasn't enough to go around, and th party suffered the pangs of an ex cruciating thirst Cook turned so blue with the cold that his dog wouldn't recognize him, and the only bright spot on the whole trip was when McLean ran down a lame duck on the beach and killed It with a single blow with his gun bar rels. House says he "got a rail," but the others say he refers to a fence rail that broke and poked him In the dia phragm. They got no snipe, at least nobody saw any of them, and local Nlmrods have decided to wait until next season before going after Jacks. The party report ducks scarce, but the market hunter are making a fair living yet. FIRST VICTIM. Yeung Man Arrested for Snowballing Women en Street With the first snow of the season yesterday, heedless boys and young men made life miserable for each other on Commercial street, and then turned their attention to passing pedestrian. Men succeeded in weathering the storm all right, but considerable annoyance was occasioned passing ladles and girls, until finally a man riding with his wife was made a target and promptly hunt ed a policeman down and had one young man, named Lowell, arrested The effect waa wholesome and women and girls were not further molested. It was suggested that if the snow continues, and there is no abatement In the fusillade, that the mayor be given 10 feet start from the firing line, policemen none at all and that 20 yards "law" be allowed newspaper men, who are too dissipated to run, anyway.

The county court will meet next Wednesday at which time the tax levy will be mode. Teh levy will be about the same as lust year, although the bill authorising the county court to levy a tax of 5 mills for county court house purposes is now a law. It Is not thought that a 5-mUl tax will be levied for the first year. The desire of the" county court is to keep the taxes about the same ns at present, and Increase the court house levy hs fust ns other levies for the Nehalem road and Lewis and Clark bridge expire. .The levy will probably run for about 15 year a but will be so small as not to be felt by the tax-puyers.

A pathetic case that has come to the attention of the sheriff Is that of a young girl In one of the red light dance halls. She came here a few weeks ago, having left her home in Portland, and went Into the dive. Her mother searched for her. and finally located her with the assltance of the sheriff The sheriff took the girl to his office and allowed the mother to talk to her, The girl finally consented to return to her home, and went back to Portland, but a few days later she returned to Astoria, and now the mother is her again trying to get her to go home.
