The rainfall so far this year has been extraordinarily light for corre sponding seasons. Weather Observer Powell's record show only 0.92 Inches for January, and up to 7 a. in. yester day tha rainfall for this month was only .15. There Is plenty of time, how ever, for February to make up defi ciencies. ' The quarantine which was imposed upon Miss Eva. Todd of the Adair school by Dr. Pllklugton under the im pression that the young woman was suffering from a light attack of scarle- Una, was removed yesterday, und Mis Todd will tie able to return to her school at once. Her health wu never better, she Oilnks, than during the period of her Illness. The. A st or Inn hns been complimented for the stand It has taken against the slreet corner loafer nuisance. The young men that were accustomed to congregate ttiere anA annoy ladies passing, have cheerfully accepted the advice given. It may also be stateO in this connection, that the young kid have ceaaed their depredations, for ahlch l ho public will be thankful. Councilman Hansen ha the resolu tion prepared for the Improvement ot Exchange street from Seventeenth to the Clatsop mill and will Introduce It at the next meeting or the council. This Is one reason why trie council did not take any action on the communi cation from the water committee, com plaining about the storage of lum ber on tha street, which Is In an unsafe condition. ' The Greek cilsens of Astoria and frlenda of J. Kahagos, who died at the hospital Saturday,' circulated a ub- scrlptlou paper and raised 4S to give him a decent burlut. Antone Theadora circulated the list. Some of the Greek realdents are very much Incensed against Jos. Falangos of Clifton be cause he refused to contribute any thing. They are also very grateful to the good jieople of Astoria who con tributed, , John Doe, a unlive of Ireland, wa arraigned In the police court yester day upon a charge of being drunk. Deputy City Attorney Frank Spittle appeared for the city and George Ka- both and Leandor Lebeck for the de fendant. Kaboth argued that It was no crime for an Irishman to get drunk during China New Tear, and the court sustained the demurrer and discharged the defendant. The harbor was, somewhat rough when the schooner Mable Gale came In fromi ouQBlde ystduy morning and the cook, while executing a pas seul with a kettle of water In his hands fell and badly sprained an ankle. Duff, sau plums, and tea will be about ah for the crew of the Mable Gale for a few days unless, there Is a born chef aboard who only needs an opportunity to develop genius. The wires into the city were more or less disabled yesterday on account of damage wrought by the wind. , At the bar thb velocity of the wind was 41 miles an hour at one time, and the gala waa strong for far up the river. Part of the wires failed In the vicinity of Clatskante, but a linemen are station, ed at that place the trouble waa ot short duration. Other trouble was more difficult of access.

The Hansen resolution, written by Tony Smith, was picked before it was ripe. A pyrotechnic display of oratory railroaded the Hansen resolution through the council. When waa Perry Trullinger appoint ed deputy superintendent of streets? Councilman Belland wants to know about Burns' pets and the democratic graft. The democratic mule has had an other uttack of cirrhosis. He-haw. Four deputy superintendents of streets Is three too many according to the charter. The Tuttle charter bill does not pro vide for the employment of democrat io pets to superintend constructions of streets when no streets are being constructed. Kind of a aide graft When the Tucile charter becomes a law there won't be a many democratic pet sucking the public teat . The Portland grand Jury ha adopt ed a new rule. The first order of buslnesa each morning Is to call the roll ot the Cnited State senate. No statement ha yet appeared with the hardihood to propose to break up the plumbers' trust. Cnder 'the Colorado rules the candi date who haa received the smallest number of fraudulent votes la entitled to the office. With Colonel Bryan applauding President Roosevelt and Grover Cleve land preaching -to the Young Men' Christian Association, we are not sur prised that John Sharp Williams wants to throw up the leadership of the dem ocratic party. There are rumor, in town that a coterie of gamblers who formerly op. erated in Portland, but who were com pelled to close by Sheriff Word, la figuring on starting a pool room and bucket shop In Astoria if they can se cure satisfactory rates from the tele graph company. It la certain that the sports tn Portland would like chances to "get down" on a good thing at the tracks, and they think since Astoria Is a wide open town their best chance is here. . The gasoline fleet about the harbor will be considerably larger this year than ever before, and the fishermen expect to keen the small fivlght steam ers lined up pretty well In the matter of rates. A large number of the fish ing boats are now equipped with pow er, and there will be nearly a score more by the time the aeaaon opens. At thl time a number of the fishermen are carrying supplies for their breth ren, and the dock owner at Chinook who recently put up rate got a hard iar when the fishing fleet began to bring barges along shore and flouted the dock altogether.
