Yesterday was given over by the assembled teachers of the State who had been in attendance upon the Clatsop county institute to the spe cific jssces and Interests of the school officers' meeting, which was presided over by State Superintendent J. H Ackerman. The day was fruitful and crammed with element of instruction and concern with which men and women in that official relation have most to do, and nothing was lost of the advantage offered. Professor Alderman dealt with the subject . of "The Greatest Present Needs of the County School," and after clearly stating bis deductions, took part in an elaborate discussion with his colleagues, Professor Ack erman, Aiders and Moore. ' "The Relation of the School Board to the Teacher" was presented by Prof. Herman Ahleis. and his con clusions were ordered re-produced in the Oregon Teachers' Monthly, by those who felt thai it deserved wider notice. The subject of "Keeping Good Teachers," was presented and handled by Mr. Ackerman in his usual thor ough and entertaining way, and was formally discussed by Thomas Bush, and Superintendent Clarke, of this county. Other pertinent and engross ing matters were dealt with during the hours of the session, all of which were treated exhaustively and inter estingly; and the session closed with the unanimous conviction that it had been of decided benefit to all present, and to schools of the State as well, as all such congresses are. At a meeting of the Clatsop County School Board Convention, held in Astoria ,on Saturday, April 25, 2908, the following resolution was intro duced and adopted by a unanimous vote: 4 "Whereas, There has been much difficulty in the past in keeping cor rect records of the receipts and dis bursements of the various school districts of the State of Oregon by the various clerks of said districts, and, whereas, the county treasurer Is much more competent to keep such accounts, "Therefore, Be it resolved, that the members of the Clatsop County School Board Convention, held at Astoria, on Saturday, April 25, 1908, do hereby memorialize the Legisla ture of the State of Oregon, which is to convene in January, 1909, to pass a law relieving the school district clerks in districts of , the second and third class from being custodians of the district funds and making the county treasurer the custodian of all such funds. "And be it further resolved. That a copy of these resolutions be fur nished to the daily papers of the City of Astoria, and that a copy be sent to each of the Clatsop county represen tatives to the Legislature of Oregon." Fifteen officers were present and eighteen teachers. Pipe Organ Recital The St. Agnes Guild will give a ripe Organ Recital at Grace Episco pal Church, on Wednesday evening, April 29th.

Off For San Francisco City Treasurer Thomas Dcaleywill leave today for the California metro polis where he will join Chief Gam mal in the delights incident to the coming of the great white ships, and after a season of pleasure there, they will return to Astoria, via Victoria and the British possessions. During his outing Captain Dealey will visit his daughter who dwells near Sacra mento, in the Golden State. A Season of Pleasure The cultured .people of Astoria and all who delight in the highest type of adroit and accomplished entertain ment, will have one of the genuine opportunities that offer but rarely. On Wednesday evening next, at the First Methodist Church, in this city, Wil liam Lee Greenleaf, the impersonator, par excellence, of the American rostrum, will give his fall series of delightful monologues, than which there is no more charming entertain ment on this continent today. The treat is under the auspices of the While the. joint conference plans, and joint committee work, mapped out by the Business Men and the Civic League,, of this city, looking to an agreement a between the local optionists and the saloonmen, pro. viding for the closing of the saloons on Sunday, and the withdrawal of the local option petitions, for both "wet" and ''ftry" campaigns, have all fallen to the ground because the saloonmen could not accept all four of the pro posals submitted by the Civic League, there is yet a very fair chance that the issues may; be amicably adjusted, and considerable gained for all con cerned, if there is no dictatorial work done by either side for a few days. The saloonmen have held a meet ing of their own, and it is reported they have entered into a specific agreement and signified their purpose to sec to it that those refusing to join the compact are allowed no lee way for transcending the general rule, without distinct trouble. And if this attitude is taken by them, it is presumed that the League people will meet the situation by pulling dowli the petitions for local option in pre cinct Nos. 2, 3, 4 and 5; and at the same time, the common interest will be served by the withdrawal of the petitions designed to "open up" pre cincts Nos 6 and 7, this to be urged by all parties at interest . The terms of the new agreement formulated by the saloonmen, and upon which they propose to stand, I have not yet been given out, as there were a number of men in that busi ness yet to be seen in that relation; but it will be made known tomorrow and receive due publicity when ready for it ' It is Said that a petition has been variously signed asking the common qouncil of this city to meet in special session tomorrow night, for the ex press purpose of considering and passing an ordinance prescribing the number of saloons to be permitted in this city, and fixing the district to which the embargo applies, for a given length of time. The details are not yet all agreed upon; but what ever they may be, the proposition is in direct interest of the city and all factional elements now contending for popular expression. And it is certain the saloonmen and the local optionists will both benefit by the plans afoot to hedge against an ex pansion of the business. W. E. Schimpff stated, at this office, last night,, that he had been direct communication with the State Brew ers' Association at Portland, and was qualified to make the declaration, as coming from that particular body that the Astoria saloonman who breaks the Sunday closing law will be denied the right to purchase beer from the allied members of that association; and further, that the Washington as sociation of beer men would stand pat on the1 steps that may be taken by the Oregon factors. Epworth League, and will doubtless be heavily patronized. , With The Injured- Word reached here yesterday af ternoon that the sufferesrs from the late unfortunate disaster on the jetty- trestle, were all improving steadily, and that Anders Hansen, who bore the worst of the hurts, while having been in dubious shape for several days past, was, at the time the message was sent, getting along finely and no more uneasiness was felt about him.

Twelve hun dred pupils of the Edward Jenner Public School fled panic stricken to the streets yesterday when a report spread through the building that three members of the "Black Hand Society" had placed a nitro glycerine bomb in the basement which, was timed to go off at two o'clock! Although 12 teachers in the 25 rooms made every effort to form fire drill lines and to quiet the frantic children they rushed pell mell down the three flights of stairs trampling over one another in their frenzy to get out of the school house. Several of the smaller child ren narrowly escaped serious injury in the rush for the doors leading to the streets. Parents who hurried to the school house to rescue their children from the buildings added to the confusion. It was only through the efforts of the teachers and the bravery of engineer Frank Smith and, Janitor Leonard Moore, who stood at the main en trance of the building picking up those who were knocked down in the rush for exits that no one was injured fatally in the panic. - Four hours after" the building had been cleared of the boys and girls frightened parents crowded the streets around the structure awaiting for news concerning the explosion and threatening vengence on the Black Hand Society. Not until as squads of police arrived in response to a call of Principal Lane was the crowd dispersed, V" ! - 1 1 H 'if, I prevents men from looking company they keep, by the by their actions. by the way they WEAR; not week or first month, but all Reducing the Waist Line in Both Sexes. Men and women with heavy, pen dulous abdomens who wish to reduce them quickly and safely are usually advised to go in for certain tiresome twisting and bending exercises that, as a matter of fact, they should care fully avoid as being dangerous rather than beneficial. A far better plan is to use the fol lowing three simple household reme dies which can be obtained of any druggist at small cost, viz.: 1 oz. Mar mola, 1 oz. Fluid Extract Cascara Aromatic, and 31 ozs. Syrup Simplex. These are mixed together at home and taken a teaspoonful after meals and at bedtime. These three make a mixture that is not only perfectly harmless, but ac tually quite beneficial to the system, regulating the digestion, purifying the blood, and clearing the complexion of pimples and blotches. Its chief and surprising benefit is in the- rapid, natural manner in which it reduces the fat person to the normal, beauti ful lines of a fine physique, it having been known to cause the reabsorption of as much as a pound of fat a day. Moreover, it does it symmetrically, $o that no wrinkles or flabby skin arc left behind. Strange to say neither dieting nor exercise are advised when this simple home recipe is being used, for it will produce results independ ently of either and so the patient is instructed to eat whatever he or she fancies and is also permitted to take things easy.
