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;

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

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.

ohase of which, his friends are shar
ing gladly. He will leave on his re
turn trip to the north tomorrow
morning.
Making Things Snug
The fire boys at Chemical No.l,

days making things snug and com
fortable and convenient, and general
ly enhancing the looks of their re
spective posts and quarters; and they
are doing some good, sound work in
a workmanlike manner, which goes to
show that fire-fighting is nt the limit
of their accomplishments.

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.
St Patrick'e Eve
The young and the old, in fact "all
hands," of St Mary's Catholic parish,
in this city, are bending their energies
to pull off a delightful entertainment
in this city on St Patrick's eve. The
date has been set for the earlier even
ing, because most every member of
the church wants to go to the Portland
festivities on the day itself, when, and
where, Rev. "Father Yorke, the fa
mous San Francisco orator is to hold
forth. .

spread in the Chinese restaurant of

at which were seated a happy crowd
of 12 to each table, and the viands
piled thereon were tempting to the
Celestial appetite, and rapidly dis
posed of. The host of the evening
was busy among his guests, accepting
their congratulations, and incidentally
seeing to the fact that their desires
were gratified. General good feeling
prevailed throughout the repast and
when the tables were cleared, a pro
cession was formed which proceeded,
according to the Chinese custom, to
the home of the bride and groom
where they were introduced to the
blushing and happy wife. This after
noon a lunch will be served to the
Chinese ladies of Astoria which will
be presided over by Mrs. Ah Joe, and
on which occasion she will be intro

her nationality in Astoria.

ber of the rm of The Hop Hing Lung
Company, of this city, and Mrs. Joe
were married in Oakland, CaL, on

city was thoroughly enjoyed, and the
couple came to Astoria, where they
will make their home, Ah Joe having
many business interests here, j
