We are agents for the Packard and Brown Shoes COAST, BAR AND RIVER NEWS OF THE HOUR CRAFT ARRIVING AND DEPARTING IN AND FROM ASTORIA -AND THEIR MASTERS, MEN AND MESSAGES The report that a loaded American three-masted ship was outside yester day afternoon, has given rise to the belief that it is the salmon ship Ber lin, with the Warren pack on board, and bound for Goble. If it is the Berlin she, made it in good time from Nushagak, having left there on the 24th of August, or just IS days out, which may have been done with strong and steady winds. Should it prove to be her, the last of the Columbia-Alaska fleet will have arrived home. The French bark Cornil Bart arriv ed in yesterday from Hobart, and is anchored off the Tongue. She went out from this port, in ballast , last spring and sailed .to Tasmania, and New Caledonia, and back, in ballast, the same she took out; searching for cargo, and making more money un der the French bounty system for miles traversed, than if she had found a charter.

STRAY BULLET ENTERS DUSEN HOI MISSIVE SHATTERS KITCHEN WINDOW AND MIGHT JUST AS WELL HAVE KILLED " SOME ONE. A bullet tired by some unknown person shattered a window in the home of H, U. Van Duscn. at 536 Harrison a venire, at an early hour yesreruay morning, mat it. was n A . 1 ft. stray bullet is quite probable, of course, but none the less n might have done serious damage. The police were notified of the episode but their efforts to ascertain who it was that fired the shot were unavailing. , t about 7:30 o'clock yesterday morning Mr. Van Dusen was silting in a chair reading the morning paper, when he suddenly heard a sound as of shattering glass. He hastily arose and made an investigation, and in the kitchen found a window that had been perforated and more or less shatter ed by a bullet. He went' out - and looked around the neighborhood from whence the missive must have come, but could not find anybody who had heard a shot or knew anything about the matter. Returning to the house Mr. Van Dusen again sat down in the chair where he had been when the shot was tired, and a mtiment later Mrs. Van Dusen saw something on a sofa which attracted her attention. It proved to be a bullet, more or less flattened out of shape. How the bullet found its way to the sofa is a mytsery to Mr. Van Duscn, It must, apparently, have struck the very chair in which he was sitting, and to reach pthe chair it must have passed through three doors. Evidently k had been deflected in its course until finally. triking some resisting surface, it dropped or bounded onto the lounge. The occurrence seems to be simply another of the many cases of care less shooting that is but too prevalent in and around Astoria. Some boy may have fired the shot, and it is known that boys are in the habit of discharging fire-arms within the city limits. Or the shot may have come from laborers who were working up on the heights at the time. In the hope that the miscreant who fired the shot may be discovered, or that the action may have some deterrent effect upon others in the future, Mr. Van Dusen said last evening that he will give a reward of $10 for proof( of the identity of the person. It is probable that this sum would be doubled by others in the neighborhood, who feel alarm over the matter of flying bul lets. It was only recently that some Italian laborers fired several shots directly at Mr. and Mrs. Walter Ri(k-halgh as they were taking a walk near the City Park. FARMER IS ACCUSED OF USING REVOLVER JOHN A. EKSTROM SECURES A WARRANT FOR ARREST OF FRED HARTMAN. A warrant was sworn out in the justice court yesterday afternoon against Fred Hartman, a prominent farmer out near Svenson, charging him with assault with a deadly wea pon, ihe complaint was maue ty John A. Ekstrom, also a well-known farmer of that district, and it is un derstood that behind the formal com plaint lies a charge that Hartman shot at Kkstrom's sorr with a revolver. ' The two men have been in trouble before and once before Hartman had Ekstrom arrested. The trouble seems to have arisen over the opening of the new county road there, and incident ally over the question of fences and cattle that stray. . ; . Hartman is said to be now in Port land, where he also, has interests, and no attempt will be made to serve the warrant until his return. The men are neighbors, - TEA The greatest tea-drinkers are full -bottom Dutch men. There isn't much nervous prostration in Holland. T.nr trocar ntnrai 7 nt Beam I ytt 4mt .

Civic League In Session There was an interesting session of the Astoria Civic Improvement League at the parlors of the First Presbyterian church last evening, when a goodly number of the large ' membership answered the call .sent , out. By some nusuiiderstaiidinir. it was supposed that last evening was the date fixed by the constitution for the annual election of officers; but upon discovery of the error, the meet ing resolved itself into an , informal group of interested Astoria citizens, and proceeded to discuss men and,( things and dates and prospective ; engagements, political, social, civic, . all with a tendency to more distinc tivc treatment f at the meeting called f for two weeks hence.
