A Warm Send-Off There was a very pleasant time last evening at' the Memorial Lutheran church, when the friends of that faith tendered a farewell reception to Rev. P. J. O'Connell, who is to leave this morning for his distant home in Braddock, Pennsylvania. Mr, O'Con lull has been here for several week and has enjoyed his stay very much as have those who had the good for tune to meet the up-to-date Eastern pastor.

A Jolly Good Time- John II. Gunderson, assistant engi neer on the lighthouse tender Heath er, was the recipient of a pleasant surprise party given at the residence of Henry Jones, in Uppertown, last night.

One of the pretty features of the function was the presentation to Mr. Gunder son, of a beautiful gold watch which was. highly appreciated by him, "Shorty" Gunderson, as he is called, is a well known figure on the streets fif Astoria. When the Heather is in port he being the tallest man in town, six feet 6 inches, being his height. Astoria Boy Weds The pleasant intelligence reached this city yesterday, oj the marriage, on Saturday last, September Sth, at Corvallis, Oregon, of Mr. Philip Gcarhart, of this city and county, and Miss Nellie Marvin, at the home of the bride's parents, in that seat of learning.

Lena St. Clair, as the name of the woman who was struck in the face by! a Japanese on Japanese on Commercial street Monday afternoon turns out to be. kept things as busy as a '.hree-ringed circus during her first 24 hours in I Astoria, In police court yesterday) afternoon, at the conclusion of the case against the Japanese and of an other charge preferred against her she was told by Police Judge Ander son that it would be highly desirable if she would leave the city and would not stand on the order of her going. "I will go," she said, much in the) tone of one who meant to go no mat-! ter what others might do to prevent her leave-taking. The Jap was found guilty. He testified in his own behalf that he had only struck her after she had struck him, and he explained that he was following her because she had refused to pay for a meal in the res taurant. Mayor Wise and Police Officer Belcher gave the principal testimony in the matter, Mrs. St. Clair had little to say. "I didn't pay for the meal," she said, "because it was rotten. I threw it out in the street." Judge Anderson explained to the Japanese, that while he was justified in endeavoring to secure the money for her meal in a peaceable manner, that nothing justified him in striking the woman, and a fine of $20 was imposed. After the affair with the Japanese on Commercial street the woman wandered about town, apparently studying its manners and its people. During the 24 hours that she was thus engaged she "struck" Judge Tren- chard, Justice of the Peace Goodman and a dozen others for money; was found idling away an hour in a "joint" near the waterfront; had trouble in the "Big Swede's" place; was accused of trying to tap the till in Luukinen & Harrison's 'store, and was accused of stealing some men's underclothing at the depot. What other things she did or tried to do are not known. "It seems, said fudge Anderson, "it seems as if Astoria is not fast enough ! for you; you require a larger and, swifter sphere in which to operate, 1 and therefore it may be well that you do go, providing that you go quite j soon." That the woman is not quite herself seems probable. She is middle-aged and seems to wear a certain air of re- spectability. The affair with the Jap- anese attracted much attention, 'and while all agreed that the woman was entirely in the wrong, still there was nothing to extenuate the Jap's action in striking her. It was a busy day in the police Never in the history of Astoria have you bought meat as cheap as this. Keep patronizing put the price down.

She is the woman who was arrested a couple of months ago when there was a. bloody fight over her at her place on Third near the waterfront Then a man by the name of Tervi stabbed Matt Walquist. Lale Monday night Polcie Officer -Linville heard trouble in the Mattson place. He was told that there had been fighting and quar reling. He found the woman maudlin drunk. He arrested her and two men, while one man escaped. With the aid of citizens the woman was taken to the station. "Were you drunk?" she was . asked by Captain Abercrombie, the city attorney, "What, me " drunk? Huh, I only nad a couple of glasses of beer," she replied. "Thirty days or $60," said the judge, at the conclusion of a pretty stiff talk to her. One of the men ar- rested in her place was also fined, while the other was out on bail, and his bail money was declared forfeited. There -Acre half a dozen "drunks," who also were fined.
