A Pleaaant Suggestion A group of old fire fighting veterans were discussing the lively days an4 duties of the volunteer period in As toria, yesterday, and in course of con versation it was intimated that at least 50 of that personnel still lived in, and in touch with, Astoria, and that it might be an appreciated cour tesy if the Regatta Committee in vitcd them to a roster and rally dur ing the coming Regatta, with what of the ancient apparatus can be sum moned and in the old hats and shirts of the days when "de boys" ran "wid der rhasheen;". Old Captain 111 Capt. Robert Mills the well known steamboat man, and captain of the four-masted British bark Kclburn, is reported to be quite ill at St. Vincent's hospital at Portland. The captain about a 'month ago left St. Mary's hospital in thia city, apparently re covered from an attack of gout. Lat er he went to Portland where he was again taken down to such an extent that he was removed to the hospital where he is now in a critical condi tion. The Kelburn is now loading lumber for London at the Linton mill, and is scheduled to sail in about three weeks. Military Orders First Lieutenant G. . Farnsworth, now stationed at Fort.Hamilton,tNew ,York, has been ordered to Fort Stevens, to relieve First Lieutenant B. H. Kcrfoot, who will leave on August 1st for New York City, this being the latter's third assignment to the New York military field, once at Fort Wadsworth, and again on ' re cruiting duly here. Col. W. B. Hom er, now of the Coast Artillery in the East, who was assigned to command of the Forts at the mouth of the Co lumbia, will be retired on November 15th, next, has been granted four months' leave of absence, which makes it certain he will not come to this post for duty.

One Piano Number With Each $5.00 Sale Long Run, No Fire At 4:15 o'clock yesterday evening, an alarm of fire was rung in to head quarters and on the instant three sets of apparatus were flying westward through the city to No. 216 Alameda street, the home of Victor Heinonen, fisherman, where a smoking chim ney was all that needed attention. The department is always particularly eager about a Uniontown alarm, on on account of the prevalent winds out there, its remoteness from the main fire stations and the congested condi tions of the home sites and streets of that part of the city; and every run that is made there, emphasizes the sheer need of a full station and ap paratus right there, which would not only protect that section, but assist in fires well to the eastward of it. It is a long flight for the teams even from Hose No, 1 and Chemical No. 1. Chinook's Phones ' ' We are to have telephone service galore in Chinook, all along the beach and to the outside world, says the Chinook Observer. The services here tofore has been more or less on the BUM, but that condition is no more. S. J. Baseel, who owns the local line, has put cross-arms on his poles and will have three phone divisions. He will install a switch board and give prompt service to Ft. Columbia, Mc Gowan, Astoria, and over long dist ance to Portland andelsewhere. J. A. Howerton was in town this week. The poles carrying his line to the depot and up to Megler are to be put up immediately and he proposes to put phones in town wherever he can. The Howerton system has its head quarters in the store of Dan Williams, where a switchboard was installed Wednesday. The Baseel system has headquarters in Baseel's store, where the switchboard is to be placed and arrangements made to operate the phones day and night.

Warren, superintendent of schools, said yesterday that there are eleven schools in the country now in ses sion. One or more of them closed down for a few weeks during' the haying season but will open again for the summer. The summer schools are gradually being done away with, as the roads are being bettered to such an extent that winter schools are readily possible. In the Big Slough district the children have to go to school in boats, however, at least some of them do, and there the winter time is not very propitious for the little folks.
