The suspicion at first felt that tho Mlrlko nt tho Tonguo Point Lumbering Company' Mill wan secretly organiz ed by Portland agitator and tho fore runner of other' strikes In the mill her ha died out. Not have there bon no other disturbances but there have been no signs of discontent ahown. The atrlko at Iho Tonguo Point Mill remain without new feature.

Police Court KJ. Do we while In an intoxicated condition stole a ten pound packiigu of chewing tobacco from the l.urlliui wharf yesterday forenoon, and at the time of his arrest by Chief (litminel wui using It for a pillow. Ills case will come up In police court today. Another case that will probab ly romo up today Is that of a big Mcandlnavlan who made himself beard while Incarcerated In the city Bastilo to every passerby yesterday, by sing ing, shouting and exhorting by turns. This fellow was found drunk on Four teenth street between Bond and Com mercial itbout 11 o'clock yeatordiay forenoon, so dead to the world aa evi dently to need tho services of a wagon to get himself to jail. A wagon waa secured und the big body of the pris oner hoisted In by tho Joint effort of Chief Oummol, Policeman Oberg and tho city constable. H wan too full to even protest as they heaved him Into tho wagon bod, Inn Midcnly to the astonishment of the bystanders, ho came to life and spring' lug up, wont over the side of tho wag on llko a cat. The officers wore Htag geieil by the Huddcnnesn of the man euver, but Chief (iammal made a grab und recaptured him. Ho seemed to rue an Inclination towards noisiness which all tho discouragement by tho wlhch ull the discouragement given by tho police officer could not abate, and yesterday afternoon gave a very Komi Imitation of a protracted back woods revival. All Want the Best When ono goes In search of amusement of a cortuln kind, ns, for Instance, a fine line of moving pictures, ho wants' the bet and latest and will not be satisfied with thread-bore and common presen tations. In this line, the films now on at tho Waldorf aro said to be among the real artistic work of that kind pro grummed In this western country. In all there are six of these realistic strings and all are living portrayals of tho leading events of history, such as tho "Bennington at San Diego;" tho "Trtnnsfor of Paul Jones;" tho "Two Champion Wrestling Matches of the World;" the "Slums of Paris;" "Monslour Bcaucalro, or the Gentle man Frlond;" and others of equal and rcmarkablo fidelity, make up a series of entertaining Items not to bo dls counted in this city.

V, Kuet- ' trior, of the A. & C. in Porliund, dur ing the past few day, la perhap re sponsible for tho following, taken from yeterduy'a Oregonlan: "The first step In merging tho Aa torla k Columbia Hlvor Railroad Into the northern Pacific system, haa been mode public.

Walker, who Is auditor at present. Tho busi ness Is now carried on In the offices of Mr. Talbot, vIco-pioBldent and gen oral manager of the two companies." Done in Circuit Court Yesterday was one of the quietest day of the term In the circuit court, the prin clpal order being made, waa that of Judgo McBride, granting a writ of hrtboa corpu In the case of Robert Wilbur, a minor, brought by his best friend, (and brother) Jullu Wilbur, The writ waa asked for to get young Wilbur from the custody of the muni cipal police, who had him under arrest upon a charge of larceny of money from one Harrison, and who declined to permit him to bo Interviewed, un der Instruction of Deputy District At torney J. C. McCue, The party desir ing to Interview him happened to be O. C. Fulton, who bad been retained iut young Wilbur's attorney, and t was not expected by Mr. McCue that his directions would be quite so lt orally obeyed as to exclude such a caller; and there Is some little feel Ing abroad about the matter, but all Is susceptible of explanation, and the writ will be argued tls morning with out reference to the misunderstand ing of yesterday. A Magnificient Sight Late on the night of Monday there was an unusu al and brilliant spectacle from tho hills of Astoria. Nothing less than a clearly defined display of the Aurora Borealls. The lines of direction were true, as the magnetic pale, in Boothia laud, bears from this city, and that was N. E. by K. (The principal figures were great whilto fans of light radiating from the perpendicular shaft of light; the central, upright ray being distinc tly marked with vivid pink edges Ono great beam of light, pallid and translucent, was particularly notlce nblo by reason of tho piercing bril liancy of a star behind it. This was reported to tho office of the Astorlan but when a reporter was sent out to "interview" tho northern lights, they had apiiarently, gone out. Protest Against As8essmont--A com municatlon to the city council signed by A. B. Jones was filed at the City Audi tor's olllce. This hi a protest against tho assessment of the property owned by Mr. Jones, for a sewer on 37th street declaring that the sewer is from 6 to 10 feet higher than his property and therefore useless to th property. The protest states tha his failure of his appearance before the board of equal ization was due to his Ignorance of the fact that his property was within tho assessed district. Changing Its Face Five months ago the view of the Washington shores from the city front here, was con spicuous for the almost unbroken lino of verdant hills, unscarved by cliffs or treeless spaces; and today It is prominent for the long, frequent and disfiguring stretches of raw cliff-sldos wrought by tho blasting for the new railway lines of the I. R. & N. road. The view is not one whit improved by it, either. Gently move the bowels and at the same time stops the cough. Bee's Laxative Cough Syrup. Contains Hon ey and Tar, ' No opiates.

Is in Astoria i An Important Visitor Rumor was busy yesterday, in this city, with hints : of the Intended coming to Astoria of President Levey, of the Portland and Seattle Railroad Company, who, witU a party or Mortnern racinc omciais, will make a detailed Inspection of this line from Gohle to Seaside. They will probablyj be through today, though there la nothing patent to found any particulars upon, and the rumor is given for what it is worth, along with the other statement that the engine upon which Superintendent John Mc Gulre left this city at 1 o'clock yester day afternoon, will haul the distin guished visitors over the route; En glneer Church being on the foot-hoard. " I Clash Out On The Lino Parties' Just In from tho Jewell country and westward of It, yesterday, announced, that there was a palpable clash be-, tween the surveying outfits of Nor-: them Pacific, (A. & C), and the Ly- tie (Harriman) people out on the Ne- halem, on Monday last,. The Harrl-I man bunch left the field and made a bee-line for Clatskanle, and will pro-1 bably go to headquarters for further. Instruction. No one seems to know the right or wrong of the uproar, but that it was serious enough to be no- tloeable goes without saying, and the presumption Is the A. & C. force wasj strictly In the right since the others,' abandoned the line.
