Welch and wife returned homo yes-
i terdny from a two months' visit to the

resentative of the Odd Fellows of
Oregon to represent that organization

and they are both glad to be back here
once more.

Trial by Jury The largest and most
enthusiastic audience ever assembled
In the Star theater greeted tbe "Trial
by Jury" operetta last night To say
that the audience enjoyed the enter
tainment and that It waa well pre
sented would be superfluous. To enu
merate the different characters or eu
logize any one of them, would be to
Include each and every one that par
ticipated. Sufficient to say, It waa
one of the best and most ably pre
sented entertainments ever given by
local talent in Astoria, So well did
each one take their respective roles
tbat to a stranger It would be difficult
to distinguish them from profession
als. Tbe Trial by Jury will be re
peated again tonight and those who
did not witness it last night should
avail themselves of the opportunity.
It Is deservedly worthy of special men
tion and should receive the patronage
of the amusement loving public.

inent grocerymen, on Twelfth street,

of Mr. Johnson, through whose effort
was due the pronounced success of
the old firm of Johnson Bros. The
new firm starts out with a most sub
stantial business and liberal patron
age, which no doubt will be continued
to the new firm, If merit and square
dealing is a criterion.
