Fifty Rare Views
Coe, the well known artist of As
toria, got a longing for the "briny"
the other day and deliberately shipped
out on the motor schooner Delia
Catpain Robert Jones, master, for a
voyage down the coast; incidentally,
he took along one of his best view
cameras, and while he was resting up
from his labors at slushing down
decks, swabbing paint work, furling
the rudder-post, stowing the, yard-
arms, cat-hauling
hand-painting the chainbin, he took
about 50 of the most beautiful coast
views ever seen in this city. The
movements of the Delia, in her coast
runs, carry her into nooks behind and
alongside" and around the magnificent
rocks along the Oregon coast line
that few other vessels or people ever
get to, and the results, as depicted in
Mr. Coe s work, are surpassingly fine.
Captain Bob Jones has a full set of
them now; and he would abandon the
Delia anytime, if he could but swim
ashore and save the lot. Both gen-'
tlemen are rightfully proud of
collection..

ASTORIA THEATRE.
What the Evening Bulletin of
Walla Walla, Wash., says:
"That the play given at the Key
lor Grand last night by the Clama
players pleased the audience was
evinced by the applause accorded the
characters who assumed the male and
female heroic parts, the lausrhter
elicited by the work of the comedians
and the hisses received by the vilflaa
on his every appearance. .
The specialties both varied and
meritorious broke the monotony so
apparent in the interim between acts.
the usually more aooarent on a snmmr'
night." ; .
The Claman Company will appear
at the Astoria Theatre tonight in the
old time rural drama "On The Fron
tier." -
