A. arc as bright a set as he ever went against, especially when they have things all their own way, as they have in this instance a condition no one, from Portland to The Dalles, seemed to think of 'questioning, let alone deny ing. ' .. ' ' Theater Go Jed ' The 'Automatic Theater, the little moving picture place on the north hide of Commercial street near Four teenth, was closed last night, and, ac cording to Sheriff M. A. Pomeroy, it was closed by him on an attachment sued by Charles J. Bcrtleson. The proprietor of the Automatic is H. Gustavcson, a young Astoria man. The attachment suit is said to be for a small sum of money which Bcrtle son had loaned to him to aid in car rying on the enterprise. The location of the enterprise wa not of the very bet, and apparently the receipts have consequently been small. Whether Mr. Gustavcson will try to continue in business is not known. An Excellent Concert , The National Hall was crowded last night at the concert given by Mile. Sigrid Westerlind, and the au dience was captivated by the beautiful voice of the singer. 'Mile. Wester lind sang in both Swedish and Eng lish and the encores were many, there being eight or nine encores during the evening. Miss Ester Sundquist, the Astoria young lady whose beau tiful renderings on the violin have already attracted attention, gave sev eral violin selections during the con cert. Mile. Westerlind's voice was pronounced splendid. Mrs. Charles H. Abcrcrombie assisted Mile. Wes terlind and added additional laurels to her reputation as a musician. Eighth Grade Exams Eighth grade examinations, in ac cordance with a plan carried on' all over the State, were held in four of the districts in the county lastweek in the Albert, Melville, Hammond and Seaside districts. Pupils who pass these examinations may enter the accredited high schools without further examinations. The papers in the tests held in these fo.itr districts have been sent to Miss Warren, the supeeintendent, and she will appoint an examining board to pass upon them. There were ten pupils tried, and later the names of those who took the examinations With success will be published. , Those who pass are then entitled to enter the Astoria high school, though apparently the question oftuition under the new law is not quite clear. Inter-Farm Telephones Word was received in thi3 city yesterday of a big business meeting of the Clatsop Plains Farmers' Tele phone Company, at which time the stockholders elected Mrs. cGorgia Pennington (in whose grocery at Morrison's Station the election was held) as president of the company for the ensuing year. Mrs. Pennington is engaged in the millinery business ALEX TAGG Ice Cream 25c qt. "Fresh Chocolates Candies, etc Made fresb every day In 001 own factory, 843 Commercial Street GRAND JURY MUST BE CALLED BY JUDGE VET THERE SEEMS LITTLE TO PRESENT FOR CONSIDERA TION, IT IS SAID In accun ai,cc with the new law, one of the firM acts of Judge McBride after coping the September term of the. circuit court tomorrow will be to make the drawing for a grand jury. The calling of a grand jury is im perative under the new law, but whether there will be must to pre sent for its consideration is not yet known. ' ' '?;' '-.. .' " There will be a few. minor criminal cases for its members to consider, and as the matter is understood it is like ly the fisheries cases will also go be fore the jury. " As far as is known there is no movement in the city to call the at tention of any particular thing to the grand jury, unless the same man who wrote the anonymous letter to the county court steps forward and docs some talking on his own account. This anonymous contribution simply stated that the accounts of the county caurt would b placed before the grand jury, though this matter seems to be .more or less of a joke. While the court is supposed to open tomor row morning it is prbable that it will be afternoon before Judge McBride is prepared to commence proceed ings. He is expected to arrive on the noon train tomorrow. After the drawing for, a grand jury the judge will appoint a foreman and will give hisinstructions. , While it is known that there is some gambling going on in Astoria, and that there is an almost open vio lation of the Sunday closing law, yet unless interested persons make a de mand for an investigation it is hardly probable that one will be made, it is said. As long as the laws are enforced in a reasonably strict way the ma jority of the people seem to be fairly well satisfied.

Warrenton is the "central" for the system, and it is being extended daily, to the great convenience of all concerned down that way, the service itself being ex cellently clear and strong over the wires. Off For College The vacation is over, not alone for the children who attend the public schools, but also for the young folks who are attending colleges or uni versities in other places.

REPUBLICANS MEET (Continued from page 1) only the slightest interest in politics and that very few of them have any active or intelligent; interest in the present campaign, great as is its im portance. One reason alleged for this lack cf interest on the part of the young men in the direct primary law. ' ! ; :rVK Attention was called to the corrupt practice act adopted by the last Leg Waul re. This prohibits all forms of biibcry and influencing of votes. All contributions must be accounted for with" the county clerk. Laws hedge iu everything now.
