on the high gate which atnnds at the
entrance to the alleyway, running be
tween the warehouse of F F.lniorc Si
Company, on water street, the big gate
became loosened from ita hinges, and
fell on top of the two tota, o that the

broken, and the Howard boy'n head was
merely cut. Mr. Blaochard, who re

In Police Court. Gus Monaeman an
netted that he wa not drunk when
arrented yenterday morning by Ofllcer
Wilson and denied that he had used any
language reflecting on the general in
efficiency of the Astoria police force,
nnd Officer Wilson in particular. The
officer however asserted junt n positive
ly that Mooemnn bad used insulting
language, toward him and after hearing
both sides to the matter, Judge' Ander
son dismissed the case, with n warning
to Mooseman that in the future his
language should be such aa to keep him
out of jail. Mooseman admitted he had
been drinking, but was not drunk. The
court in the course of his remarks em
phasized the fact that tho average per
son did not treat officers of the law
with due respect, nnd said that he
would give all persona guilty of insult
ing remarks to an officer, the limit. Be
cause there seemed to be doubt as to
the extent of Moosemnn'a offense, the
mutter was passed over. Mat Matson,
Hannah Dickson, and Belle Falsnig all
accused with drunkenness, forfeited
their bail to the city, by their non-ap
pearance in court.

THE BEST $5 HAT IN THE
WORLD.
It is the fashion nowadays for every mother's son of a clothing dealer to
claim that "HE" is the only favored one who carries the "BEST" clothes.
Do you, Mr. Customer, believe that ONE factory, makes all the good
clothes in America.
Indeed, some factories who were the ones, but a few years ago, bare de
generated and new men, young men, men of nerve, of ambition and of pride
have grasped the reins and the M and S or the X and Y Brands of former
years, are passed NOW!
Today, new people are to the fore, tomorrow too will be brushed aside, by
younger, more vigorous men with newer ideas and so the world hss," does and
ever will, move on.
The question thererore Is: which one of your local clothiers is the most
aggressive, the most up-to-date one; who is it that will take up new ideas,
new makes FIRST?
When you have answered that question, then you can safely decide as to
who "DOES" come nearest to that ideal.
"Don't judge a firm by its pretensions."
"Judge a clothier as you would a preacher."
"A doctor, a lawyer, a mechanic, etc."
"Judge every man or firm hy the

To Move McClure School. In con
formity with the tenor of the communi
cation made to the taxpayers of the
Astoria school ditrict by the president
of the board of directors, Judge F. J.
Taylor, acting on behulf of the board,
and read in full ut the meeting of
Tuesday evening, the directors met yes
terday attention and made an order
covering the matter of the removal and
remodelling of the McClure school
building. The building committee of
the school board, Messrs. J. W. Welch
and J. A. Kakin, were instructed to
have plann and specifications drawn pro
viding for the removal of the building
fifty feet to the southward and twelve
feet to the westward and for the rais
ing of the building so as to permit the
installation of four more rooms, two of
which later will le made of the base
ment play room now existent; and so
soon a the committee and the architect
shall report the work back to the board
the work will lie commenced and dis
posed of with all the despatch possible.
The work will cost in the neighborhood
of $10,000, but will be wholly compen
satory, and i. imperatively necessary.
One peculiarly fortunate feature of the
completion of thi work is the facilitat
ing tlK abandonment of the Olney
school building, which is much too close
upon the "dead line" of the forbidden
district of the city for the moral health
of the children, and the personal com
fort of the staff that teaches there.
The Good Old Way. A reporter of
the Astorian was shown a note of hand
yesterday that has a bit of a story at
tached to it. that will la-ar recital from
the fact that it demonstrates the
splendid gift of per-onal confidence that
exists between men in this age of ex
acting business ntle: Five years ago
a certain gcxsl citizen of this county had
occasion to ltorrow the sum of ?500.
and sought it of a friend and neighbor;
Clothes Bought at Herman Wises Store pressed Free
WHAT IS
TEffiBEST CLOTHING
the friend had it on hand and loaned
it gladly, taking the note, of the borrow
er, for one ymr, with six per cent inter
est; and before the ink was dry, the
loancr handed the evidence of debt
bock to the borrower with the state
ment that be did not want, nor need
the note, that be trusted him implicity
and he did not care to put a bridle on
his confidence in a friend. The borrow
er took it for a year, paid the inter
est, tendered the principal, and wa
told Ut use it as long as he had any
possible rraxon for doing so Year by
year, for four more years, the promisor
paid the interest and tendered the prin
cipal, annually, only to have the full
sum thrust buck upon him for further
use; and only a short while ago, when
the vagaries of time made it expidient
for the man who owed it to leave the
section in which they had both lived so
long, was the full and final sum of
principal and interest paid in settlement
of the note that had never changed
hand. Odd, but as true of gospel.
