MANAGER WHYTE OF THE
CHAMBER OF COMMERCE IS
ENTHUSIASTIC OVER OUT
LOOK FOR THE FUTURE,
The regular meeting of the
Chamber of Commerce will take place
tomorrow night at 8 o'clock. Since
the last meeting the directors for the
new electric railroad to Seaside and
Tillamook have been elected and sur
veying of the line has begun. The
long-talked of oil and gas boring
proposition has been bought to a
point where beginning of dirlling may
be announced on almost any day and
the Chautauqua proposition has been
successfully financed so that with
next year it may be expected that
the largest Chautauqua Association
in the Northwest will be a thing of
reality in Clatsop county. The ma
chinery for the brick plant is due any
time and considerable discussion may
be expected upon the seawall propo
sition. The Astoria Military Company
is now organized and something will
probably be heard about this excep
tionally brilliant enterprise which has
been so intelligently conducted by
City Attorney Abercrombie.
Then it might be mentioned that
while Astoria has not yet succeeded
in achieving the so-called, much-
mooted common point rate on wheat,

JUMPS INTO THE COLUMBIA
AFTER HIM.
"Jack' McDonald, one of the
members of the Georgia Harper
theatrical company now playing at
the Astoria theatre, accidently fell
from the Callender dock shortly be
fore 6 o'clock last evening and nar
rowly escaped death in the surging
currents of the Columbia. Glenn
Harper, one of the proprietors of the
company, was with him at the time,
and immediately jumped in after Mc
Donald, who is unable to swim.
As McDonald struck the water he
sank deep out of sight. For the sec
ond time he sank, just as Harper was
neanng him. Meantime the two men
in the water had been seen by others
about the docks and someone threw
out a rope, which both men managed
to get hold of, and in a few moments
McDonald and Harper were both
drawn to safety.
How McDonald fell off the dock is
not very clear, and it all happened so
quickly that neither McDonald or
anyone else seems to know jtist how
the accident occurred. The Georgia
Harper company had "Ten Nights in

LAST HONORS FOR
THE DEAD .
BEAUTIFUL RITUAL READ
OVER THE BODY OF THE
LATE P. L. CHERRY AT THE
GRACE CHURCH.
PERSONAL MENTION
During the hours between 10 a. m.
and 2 p. m. yesterday a great many
friends of the late P. L. Cherry
called at the family home on Fif
teenth street to take a last look at
the face of the honored dead, and to
pay their respects to the family, the
list embracing representatives of all
the leading families and business
houses of the city.
At 5 o'clock in the afternoon the
funeral cortege moved "from the
house to Grace church, where the
solemn and beautiful ritual of the
dead was read by the rector, Rev. W.
and 1 Seymour Short, assisted by Rev.
in; John Warren, rector of Holy Inno
j cents' chapel. The pall-bearers chos

THE ASTORIA & COLUMBIA
RAILWAY SETS A FINE EX
AMPLE THAT STEAMERS
MIGHT NOW FOLLOW.
Yesterday City Agent G. B. John
son, of the Astoria & Columbia
River Railroad Company, received a
communication from Superintendent
John McGuire at Portland, advising
him that orders had been issued from
Mr. McGuire's office to all engineers
and hostlers of the company, to
cease blowing all engine whistles in
rough this city, from the
at the eastern end of
d the Tallant-Grant can
nery on the west; but that the bell
on the engines must be kept ringing
constantly all the way through the
city.
The only exception allowed in the
new whistling order, is that the engi
neers will use them at any and all
times when it is essential to save life
or property.
This is a ready and appreciated
concession by the company to the re
cent expression in this city against
the constant whistling in that service,
and will not lack ready acknowledg
ment on all sides. It is to be hoped
the friendly and prompt action of the
A. & C. will be emulated by the
steamer companies whose boats are
really responsible for the most of the
unnecessary uproar along the water
front. The call whistles from the
docks may easily be dispensed with,
and if some passengers are unlucky
enough to lose their steamers a time
or two, it will enforce z closer ob
servance of the schedules, and save a
wonderful lot of public annoyance in
the city, day and night.
ORNAMENT OF NATURE
These signs, and the thoughts that
they excite in us, make the American
girl of this hour seem more than com
monly like an adventurer in unchart
ed seas, bound for a port set down in
papers that have as yet an unbroken
seal, and whose course our utmost
love and best experience can no more
than imperfectly anticipate and safe
guard. And that gives us the more
sympathy with her reluctance to be
haped on the lines of any existing
pattern, and makes us more attentive
and indulgent to promptings and re
fusals and aspirations that may have
back of them intuitions that are wiser
than any premonitions of ours. The
most we can do for her is to provide
that her preparation and equipment
shall be the 'soundest and most thor
ough that can be given her. It is a
matter of faith that she will do for
the world what her mother did before
her; aye, and something more; but
she will do it, somewhat differently;
in her own way, and not precisely as
her mother did. One would think,
to see her out of doors, that she was
all for sport, and found the main
spring of existence in the chase after
pleausre. Surely in that aspect she
delightful to regard, the most
pleasing and inspiring of all the orna
ments upon the face of nature. To
adorn creation being one important
thing that she is here for, there can
be nothing but grateful approval of
her spirited discharge of that duty

Republican Leaders Believe That the
Democrats Will Make Little
Effort in the East.
HOT SPRINGS, July 11. -That
the campiagn is to be conducted
hiefly in the west is conceded by
Republican leaders who have been
here since the Democratic Conven
tion concluded. Elmore Dover, sec
retary of the Republican National
Committee, said that the selection by
Democrats of a vice-presidential can
didate from the west and several
planks of the platform plainly indi
cated to him that the Democrats do
not intend to make a general effort
for electoral vote in some parts of the
east. Treasurer George R. Sheldon

, MAY BE MURDER. -
SAX FRANCISCO, July 11.
VVorking on the theory that John
Buchnefr, a 14-ycar-old lad whose
body was found buried in a bin of
garbage at the sanitary reduction
works last night, was murdered, and
the body thrown into the bin to con
ceal evidences of the crime, the police
today placed August Delmonte, an
employe of the plant, under arrest
pending further investigation. A post
mortem examination showed the boy
came to his death from a wound in
the head such as might have come
from a prong of a rake or small cali
bre bullet. No bullet was found how
ever. The police are working on the
theory that the boy was playing in
the ibn and when ordered away did
something to anger some employee
who struck him in the head.

THE COAL QUESTION
NEW YORK, July 11. If the con
sumption of anthracite coal contin
ues at the same rate at which it has
been going on for the last several
years it is estimated that the supply
will be entirely exhausted in the year
2055 says Edward W. Parker of the
United States Geological Survey. He
adds that by that time acording to
the records up to date the U. S. will
be using more than two billion tons
a year 2,300,000,000 to be nearer exact.
The aevrage annual production dur
ing the decade from 1916 to. 1925 will
be about 600,000,000 tons. The total
production in 1907 was 480,450,042
tons.
