Rob Tobacco Store
J. Pcntilla's tobacco store at 265
Taylor avenue was entered last Wed
nesday by a party of thieves who
carried away a Mcrchaum pipe, some
cigars and betwen 40 and 50 dollars
in small change from the cash draw
er. The robbers gained entrance to
the store from beneath the wharf by
forcing a small opening that was in
the floor, enlarging it enough to ad
mit the body of a man. The robbers
easily escaped with their plunder
without leaving the slightest trace or
clue to who they might be. The case
has been reported to the police with
a description of the pipe which is the
only article taken that may lead to
the discovery of the principles.
Brings Suit On Astoria
Suit has been filed by the attor
neys of Mrs. Annie Anderson of Port
land in the United States Court of
that city" against the City of Astoria
for $20,000 for personal damages she
sustained in this city during the re
gatta in 1907. Mrs. Anderson claims
that while in Astoria she slipped on
the apron on the railroad track, in
juring her hip that she says will dis
able her for life. There is a question
yet to be decided who is liable for
her injuries, whether it is the railroad
or city. But she has brought suit on
the city alone. Mrs. Anderson is
of foreign birth and has never been
naturalized, consequently she had to
bring the matter up before the United
States court.

Up To The Authorities
The insistent and utterly needless
whistling, by the steamer Shoshone
in this harbor yesterday morning, is
a sample of the imposition thrust on
the people of this city, day and 'night,
by the masters of steam vessels, and
is a case in point for the authorities
to work upon, if there is any law for
relief at hand. She was tied up at the
Callenred dock, ready to sail at 3
o'clock, but at that hour, her crew be
ing absent ou a drinking bout in the
lower levels, she turned her cyrene
loose and kept it howling for 25 min
utes withont' a break, to the discom
fort of everybody from the Tongue
to Smith's Point, the well ,the sick,
the nervous, voting and old. It is
time some protection was afforded
against this kind of thing.
