It Did Good Work.-When Dell Scully
got out those "sidewalk fbdilng cards
of his. he little thought of tbe good one
of them would do in this queer old world.
A stranger came to Astoria last fall, and
naturally took a liking to Dill; loafed
around the simp a good deal, fished
through the sidewalk, and. incidentally
despatched a numlier of the card to
friends about the country, not forgetting
aonie indistinctly rememWed school
boy chumt in the old home at Danville,
Indiana. One of them reached a young
man there and he immediately showed
it to a sister of the Astoria visitor, who
had not seen, nor heard from, her
brother for 27 years. She wrote in
stantly to Mr. Scully, telling him of the
card, and asking for express informa
tion of her brother and to be put In
communication with him. The man,
whoe name was Poe Cay lor, bad left
town, however, and Dell was not able
to do much, except assure the anxious
sister that he would do what he could
to find him. And he tried hard, with with
out avail, until yesterday, when Mr.
Cay lor returned to this city and was
shown his eister'a letter. He was de
lighted to get the message and at once
communicated with her by wire to the
great happnest of all concerned. So
much for the trifles that make up what
is sometimes called "life."

The Astoria CbarUr Commission mt
hist night in the council chambr of
the city hall with 14 members present.
Most of the lime waa consumed in the
discussion of the time at which tbe city
election should be held, there being a
variety of opinion. The general aenae
of the commission however seems to be
in favor of separating the time of hold
Ing the municipal election aa much aa
possible from the county and etatl
election; the idea being that by' so
doing political influence will be done
away with to a greater degree than if
all the election were held at the aame
time.
The next meeting will likely aee the
time definitely fixed for the municipal
election.' Thi will probably provide for
election every two year, the first elec
tion under the new charter to be held
in December of Wm. Jf thit should b
done if would nm-essiute that those
ofTlecre whoe terms expire in 1007, hold
over one more year, and those chMen at
the election In the Fall for a two-year
term, go out of of lice a year before their
time expire. From the discussion it
developed that no matter how the time
was fixed, tome of the term of office
would lie cut short and othert length
ened. A resolution waa passed providing that
whenever any memlieit of the commis
sion missed three consecutive meeting
without a valid excuse, hi name abould
be dropped from the commission and
another man chosen to fill the vacancy
caused thereby.
Wheelbarrow Patrol Wagon. The lat
est thing in patrol wagons ia a wheel
barrow. The new innovation in this
line was introduced early yesterday
morning by Officer- Houghton, who in
lieu of other mean of , transportation
borrowed a wheelbarrow and carted a
drunken negro by the name of Dan God
frey to the city bastile, , This method,
while effective, Houghton aaya, is not by
any meant awift, and the need of a good
up-to-date municipal "hurry-up" wagon
is atrongly felt by the police depart
ment Godfrey waa fined the aura of
10 by Judge Anderson for his conduct
and will probably spend the time for
the next five days behind municipal
bars. Kwald Zimmerman, charged with
resisting arrest was found guilty on a
hearing in the police court and fined $13
which turn he paid. ,
Eclipse of Moon Astorians who hap
pen to protract their evenings Friday
until the early houra of Saturday will
have the pleasure of seeing the moon
suffer a total eclipse. The affair ia as
sured the utmost promptness, whether
the audience ia present or not The hour
set for the eclipse from the Astoria view
point ia 3 A. M. August 19 the sun will
go into the shadow for a portion of
Pacific Coast residents, but those favor
ed with the spectacle are confined to the
Alaska country. There will be no per
ceptible eclipse for the people of Astoria.
Is Demented. Olof Peterson, ex
municipal dog catcher, is now residing
in the city jiL having been placed there
by the local authorities because of his
mental condition, which is not of the
strongest. He will doubtless be ex
amined by the county authorities as to
his sanity. 'Excessive use of "dope" is
said to have brought about this condi
tion.
Certificates Filed. Yesterday certifi
cntes of the completion of the improve
ment of Tenth street between Commer

Almost everyone has read the beauti

written by the greatest of French
novelists. Some of us, perhaps, have
