Season of Pleasure j
Manager Hanlin, of the Astoria J
opera house is contributing liberally
to the pleasure of amusement-loving
Astoria these days, and popular ap
preciation thereof finds expression in
the counter exhibit of big audiences
at the show-house, Sunday night the
theatre was filled to the doors with
an audience that manifested its gen
uine pleasure in the great play, "A
Ryoal Slave," than which nothing
finer has been presented here in a
long time. On Sunday night next,
March 22, the jolly San Francisco
Opera Company will occupy the
boards at the Astoria, in the "Toy
maker," an event that should bring
out an overflow house and probably
will.
In New Hands (
The business heretofore conducted
at Warrenton by Moores Brothers,
has passed by purchase into the
hands of G. Clifford Barlow, who
will conduct it in the future in con
nectiqn with the telephone exchange
at that snug little city. He carries
a full stock of general merchandise
and hopes to do his share of the
commerce of that bailiwick, and no
doubt will. 1
Tha Record Rains
The rainfall of Friday, Saturday
and Sunday, last, in this city, were
the most copious of the', season of
1907-8. On Friday the fall was ex
actly 4. inches; on , Saturday, 1.5
inches; and on Sunday, 3.1 inches;
Making a grand total, from midnight
on Thursday, to Sunday at high noon,
a period of 60 hours, of 8.6 inches;
which beats the record hereabout
for many a long year.
Well Known in Astoria
Hon. William R. McGarry, the
Portland attorney who is before the
people of Multnomah as a candidate
for the circuit judgeship in depart
ment No. 1 there, arrived in this city

ed a fine and warmly appreciated ad
dress at St. Mary's hall, on the life
and character of St. Patrick, the pa
tron saint of Ireland; which said ad

will be best remembered here as the
man, who, in 1892, saved the lives of
Mr. and Mrs. George Hazen, at
Clatsop Beach, as that brave couple
were endeavoring to save the life of
their ft 'end and hostess, Mrs. Jennie
Parker, wife of P. W. Parker, the then
