TERSE TiLESJFJIE O Deedi Non Est While there the usual number of Instruments filed for record at the County Clerk's office yesterday, there were no deed among them; a rare occurrence in this county teat of Clatsop. Court Procedure Yesterday The attention of the Honorable Circuit Court was engaged all of yei tcrday in hearing the testimony for the litiguntt In the case of Joieph Turner vi. Dion Turner, for divorce Mrs. Turner it contesting the Untie very sharply and ha filed counter tuit. The caic will probably be cloned today. ' In Aitoria Temporarily Prof. Victor La Call, the portrait painter, of Portland, whose fine pic ture of Mayor Herman Wine and of Hit Grace, Archbishop Christie, were on exhibition her recently, li in the city, and will locate here for the en suing month, to prosecute tome new work on which he lias been engaged. M. La Gall is a pupil of Dougcreaux, of Jaris, and a pleasant gentleman withal. such payment to six tickets for the first year, to be used during that time lit either of the concert! given in that period. If the holder shall use six tickets for the first of the entertain ments, then he or she will have to purchase more in order to, attend the second. ' Only six tickets are available, whensoever in the year they may be used. CutThliOut The following sjmple facts that everyone in Astoria should know, but which no one seems to just at the time when lie wants to most, are printed in order to ward off the re peated Imitiirlcs in this behalf ad dressed to the reporters of this paper, and which even they cannot answer without looking it up each time: The Astoria precincts are bounded as fol lows: First, Smith's Point to Second strret; Second street to Seventh: Third, Seventh street to Tenth: Fourth, Tenth street to Fourteenth; Fifth, Fourteenth to Twenty-first; Sixth, Twcnty-first to Thirty-fifth; Seventh, Thirty-fifth to the Eastern limit of the city. I1V But Not Dangerously Inquiry at the office of Collector of Customs Carnshan yesterday as to the real condition of Chief Deputy j Collector Frank L. Parker, , elicited I the fact that while Mr. Parker 1s a very sick man, he is not in any imine s diate danger, despite the severe na ture of his malady, typhoid-pneumonia; and that with'' quiet , and good care, there is no reason why he should not emerge happily from the affliction' in due time. There has been a good deal of uneasiness among his friends hereabout. Sold Under Attachment The furniture and fixtures of the famous old Louvre saloon were sold under the hammer by Sheriff Pomc roy yesterday afternoon, to satisfy " the claim of Charles Wirkala, who holds a judgment against the ( place and' its proprietor, Victor Lindbeck. The result of the sale was $753.50, and the property was practically . slaught ered in comparison with original values; but it met the demands of the judgment held and the costs of the process in attachment. An Error Corrected Thif paper, in its account of the Philharmonic society meeting, yes terday morning, said that the five dollar initial contribution of the mem bers entitled each of them to tickets to the six concerts proposed to be given by the society. But it seems this was an error. The society it seems but two concerts a year) and the five dollar payment entitled those making Mora From Arkansas A. V. AlleifTof this city, who is travelling in the South this winter, laid down his Morning Astorian in a famous Southern resort the other day. and when his back was turned, one of the hotel employes picked it up and began exploring it for all it was worth. The result of his exploration was demonstrated yesterday, at the office of the Chicago Dentists, here, where a letter was received from this hotel man, asking them if they "could build him a set of teeth with out Ms coming on here for the fit tinir". or words to that effect; the Chicago people at once advised him that they could do the work on the "long-distance" if he would send them a working plan of his mouth, or words of similar import The merit of the story lying in the far call of a good adjin a live paper. Landed in Jail Here . Sheriff M. R. Pomeroy returned to this city from Portland on the noon express yesterday, having in his custody Henry Blunk, the man who is charged with seduction, and entic ing from home a minor girl, both daughters of Mr. and Mrs. G. L. Mil lard, of Seaside, an account of which facts were published at length in these columns yesterday. The man wa placed in jail at once, and will probably be brought directly into the circuit court, without the preliminary processes and examination in justice court. Prosecuting Attorney J. C, McCue yesterday said this would be his plan of procedure and he will file information direct, in the upper court today, if possible. Blunk makes alt sorts of pleas in abatement of his alleged nefarious conduct as is the case when the coil of the law calls for every concievable excuse; but whether they will avail him at the bar, is yet to be seen. He is a large, not bad looking man, of about 38 years of age, He is exceedingly anxious to make good the marriage he neglected to run away with the child-sister of his bride-to-be. His case will probably take tangible legal hhape today. Here From Tanana James Galbraith, well, known in this city, ex-enginccr on the steamer Tclcirraph, but now following . his profession up around Tanana, Alaska, is in the city on a quest of business and pleasure combined, in the latter ohase of which, his friends are shar ing gladly. He will leave on his re turn trip to the north tomorrow morning.

The Real Effect As an illustration of the effect a good newspaper has thousands of miles from home, the Astorian is pleased to cite the case of Wm. Burr, now in this city in quest of a home and business, and other essential things for a family of five. Sometime ago, at Hot Springs, Arkansas, Mr. Burr picked up a stray copy of the Astorian of this city, and a careful perusal of its columns, induced him to come on here; and here he is and with a sense of gladness for the conv ing, Astoria is also glad, and the Astorian hopes his' good fortune may be uninterrupted.
