The Astorian is not prepared to state just what plans have been made for the handling of the umbrellas that ma be brought to the halt. 4 .1 mi in - A Those Canvisbick Ducks There is a funny little yarn going the rounds inent i pair of plump canvasbaek ducks, sent down on the steamer Lnrline on Monday - night by an up-river friend of a certain well known jurist of this city; and which by mischance, drifted into the apartment of a popular traveling man at the Hotel Northern, by. the same name is the original donee, ind who concluded that some kind friend had been peculiarly solicitous for his comfort, and promptly took the birds over the Imperial restaurant and had them deliciously cooked, subsequent ly enjoying them to the last frag ment, On his return to bis rooms, a telephone call informed him that he hid eaten another man's ducks, and pained as the drummer was at the in- advertance, he was compelled to ad mit the impossibility of making good on the error, and the incident closed with hi departure the next morning. The Saloon Men- It was stated yesterday by one of the saloonkeepers in the restricted district that of 19 certain saloon keepers there 12 are not - for Mr. Smith for the mayoralty, but are for the . Republican ticket. The state ment made by certain of Mr. Smith's followers that out of the 47 saloons in the city at present, 31 are for the Democrat nominee met with vigor ous protest yesterday. First of all it was denied that the saloons are lined v.p for the Democrat, leader, and moreover it was stated that the saloon men are not mixing in -with politics in any -effort to bring about an open town. The intelligent men seem to recognize the fact that this would be storing up a wrath to come. It looks as if the saloonmcn are go ing to vote just as other intelligent citizens and property owners do, each lifter his own convictions. 1 We carry Gunthers Dairy Milk Chocolates 50c PER POUND ; Sold in any quantity from five cents up.

WARREN FILES A COM MUNICATION IN RELATION THE TO IRVING SLIDE, I'ornwu announcement was served upon the city council yesterday by F, L. Warren that he will hold the city liable for the damages resulting to his property from the Irving slide. ,. - , This statement was filed with the city auditor and will be presented to the council at the next meeting of that body. Mr. Warren states that a part of his property has already been "ruined," ind that there is danger that the other lot and the house upon it will also be ruined, The communication is as follows: "I desire to again call your atten tion to the fill on Irving avenue in front of and adjacent to lot 12. block 23, and in front of and adjacent to DIock Z4, all in Shively's Astoria. As you are aware, I am the owner of the above-described property. I he whole of said block 24 has been entirely ruined, caused by the unskilful, careless and negligent manner of making such improvement and the careless, negligent and un skilful manner of making said fill. Lot 12 in said block 23 has been damaged in many thousands of dol lars, and unjess immediate precau tions are taken in a skilful and care ful manner this lot will also be en tirely ruined together with the build ing on it. "I therefore take this opportunity to again notify you that I shall hold the city of Astoria responsible for all damages to said property heretofore occurring, as well as all damages tnereto that may herafter occur. I trust you will take all necessary means to prevent further damage. This communication . from Mt Warren was written on the letter paper of Fulton Bros., the attorneys, ho evidently ire acting for Mr. Warren'i interests in the matter. udging from the statements of city officials and members of the council nothing further is likely to be done on any great scale to prevent dam' age by the slide, except as one or trto men may be kept there to keep the sluices from filling up. While the council has several times evinced a desire to give aid in the trouble, no clear way to do so seems to have presented itself. That the Warren communication ..indicates litigation seems probable, and if the . state ments of other property owriers may be accepted as true, they also-ire contemplating the same litigious step. ; Probate Court- In probate court yesterday in the matter of the estate of Abram Kal tunki an order was made fixing the time for hearing of the final account ing by the administrator, Walter Kallunki, on , December 28., Final hearing in the estate of Henrik Pat ree was also set for December 28. In the matter of the estate of Daniel Cronk an order was made approving the final account of the administra tor, A. E. Cann, and ordering the estate settled.' The same order was also made in the estate of Fannie C. Cronk, of which A. E. Cann was also administrator. Mr. Cann was ' dis charged as administrator in both these matters, his duties having end ed. In the estate of James E. Camp bell, Sam E. Harris, administrator, an order was made approving the final accounting, settling the estate and discharging the administrator. In the estate of B. C Byrd an order was made fixing the time for the hearing of the final accounting. Athletic Club V ( At a special meeting; of the Ath letic club directors last night the question of the eligibility of some four or five applcants was consider ed, and it. is understood that a cer tain few have been considered, and it is understood that a certain few have been rejected for reasons that were deemed proper. The meeting of the dirctors was held with Mr. Prael, in the office of the Astoria Box Com pany. The directors ' appoved , the purchase of the billiard and pool tables made by the committee on furnishings, and also of the purchase of the corpets and other furnishings. So deep has been the interest taken in the establishment of the club by many citizens that on every side have been heard words of encourage ment, and many have even gladly donated money. It was stated last night by one of the directors that the aggregate sum of $750 has been donated, a considerable portion of which came in $50 checks. Much of this came from people who will not personally use the athletic club, but who felt that an institution which meant so much for the youth of the city should be encouraged. PERSONAIMENTION F. R.
