McKenaie, for a Jong time one of the familiar figures on the streets of Astoria died at St Mary's Hospital last night at 11:18 after having sunercd a atroKe or -parlysia earlier in the evening He was taken to the hos pital shortly after' ft p, m. in a dying condition with his right side completely paralysed and failed rapidly from then on until the end, Ho was given all the medical attention possihl9 but owing to his weakened condition due to Intemper ate habits it was of no avail. Mc Keiuie was an expert accountant and possessed a most brilliant mind, until it became clouded by his indiscretions and in his career in Astoria he had worked for several of the prominent business firms of the city, It Is aid that he lias a sister and a brother, Dr. McKenr,ie, living in Portland and also haa relatives in New York, He was a native of New York and waa 68 years of age at the time of. his death. .

"I've guarded every possible exit from the-town but one. Jack," said the sheriff to the constable on Thursday night, wsq it's up to you to look after the cemetery road and don't you let Anyone by." "Right," says Jack, "you leave it to me, if he comes that way TH nb him." So Jack with much groaning and sweating .and uncouth language, born of Lancashire dialect and crossed with American slalig, panted up the long pull to Lexington and Fifteenth. Here, with another to bear him company, he ensionced 'him self in the wet and dripping bushes by the roadside, ratience is Jack's virtue so although the rain came down in tor rents and the night was dark and fear some, what did Jack care. His shirt could be no wetter. Had not the healthy sweat of the born athlete already stuck that article close to his rosy skin. Was there not a noble deed to be accomplish. Had he not In anticipation the capture of an untamed Englishman alone and unaided except for the big man by his side was not this night to be the crowning glory of his tenure of office. But still the rain came down wet, miserably wet but what did brave Jack caret "Hark," psstl I hear a step," whispered the sh the other man. "NTot a word." says Jack, "this is my meat. Alone, unaided, I will do this thing." And Jack, stealthily drew his trusty gun. "Listen 1 they approach sh" The tfootsteps drew nearer. "It is he,'1 says Jack and ! out ; of the buses he sprang. "Hands up!" clear and resonant, sounded Jacks command on the clear frosty or rather miserably damp air "Stand and deliver," Then confronting Jack were two .undoubted criminals "Aha I no hat! no coat; in their shirtsleeves it must be he." And straightway with gun uplifted he search ed them carefully and long. "Have you had a shave!" Jack asks feeling care fully at .their chins. The escaped man had three weeks' beard! "How tall are you?" '.'Six feet three.' "Can it be that I am mistaken t Come to this elec trio light and let me examine you more closely." Th prisoner was but 4 foot 8. "Aha I You are not the man! Neither of you is the man! But Boftt Not a word! Never let it be known that Jack , .i -.' ", .. Of'1'1 Boys' clothing that looks well Good! Boys' clothing that wears well Good!

It is well to note that Sheriff Pome roy was 'at this time guarding the track at the west end of town!.,! Inhospitable ' ' ' .v , The steamer J. Kellogg brought 200 people to Astoria Saturday. It wat an excursion of the supporters of the Kelso baseball team who had a date with the Astoria nine. The Kelso team also brought a band with them and doubtless had a nod time coming down. But there was nof a soul to meet -(hem. Not one of the Astoria Bohemians, not even the manager turned up on the wharf to meet the Kelso crowd. This does not seem to ha ve been exactly the right thing to have left undone,, Every body knew the excursion was coming.
