Tbc bar-bound Beet was broken up
yesterday by the coming of fair
weather and a more complacent bar

erics of storms. : The Wallula took
the barkentine Benecia to sea and
sent her on , her way , to Gnaymas,
Mexico; while the schooner Taurus
went out on the lines of the Ta

the schooner W. H. Talbot, are still
in port and will likely take their
offings today.

The Astoria High School and
Owapunpun football teams will
clash this afternoon. That the game
will be fairly even and hotly con
tested, is an assured fact The
Owapunpun team is composed of
Okl and rxnenenced olavera. and
outweighs the High School boys, 10
or 15 Dotinds to the man. ,
Several wairrni wer mate vqtr
day with odds of 2 to I in favor of
tne uwapunpun team.
Thus it is seen that the High
School is seriously weakened, but
the student supporters and friends
hope for the best and as the Hikh
School team has the reputation of
being "last ditch fighters," never
giving up until the whistle blows,
they hope to add another victory to
their list. The line-up is as follows;

That the eame todav will be a
good one is virtually assured, anJ
the two teams ought to be fairly
eventv matched. At the last nme
on the grounds up on the heights the
crowd was not large, not one-tntrd
as big as it should have been, and
it is Interesting even to those who
do not understand all the fine
points, and the , Thanksgiving day

jofly one as welt as a big one. ''

The dance in the Athletic club
hall last nicht was a ver nrettv
affair, and was attended by many of
tne wen Known people ot the city.
That afT had a iollv Good time was
evidenced by the spirit of merri
ment and activity in the air, and the
test with which the dancers entered
into the pleasures of the waits and
lancers and two-step.
It was the first dance ta he (riven
in the new hall, and in every way the
event seemed to be a fine success.
While the crowd was not as laree as
the management had anticipated.
nevertheless it was comfortably
large and Just numerous enough so
tnar. mere was room for an,. The
new hall looks mute orettv. It is
stained in oil, with high ceiling, and
the bisr windows oermit an excellent
ventilation. The orchestra has a

The moneys spent by the city
ounril on the fire deoartment dur
ing the past ten or eleven months
seem to present a subject worthy of
consideration.
At the commencement of the
fiscal year, on January I last, the
apportionment of the fire depart
ment was $12,160. This was tlx sum
set forth in the budget as being pre
sumably amply lullicient to meet the
expenses of the department for the
ensuing year.
Yet the actual exncnuei for the
vear have been far nrrater already.
It may be roughly but fairly accu
rately estimated that the expennes
for the year will total upwards of
$17,000. nearly $5000 more than the
apportionment.
The figures are as follows, as far
as obtainable to date;
Expended during first quar
ter $ 3.866 99
Second quarter 2.447.00
Third quarter 4,517.75
(Estimated to date), fourth
quarter 4.183,72
Estimated for coming
month of December 2,000.00
Total
.$17,016.36
Anyone wishing to see Swinton will be taken over the ground
in the Columbia Trust Company's Automobile from their office
in the Couch Building in Portland, Ore.
Remember there is not many lots left unsold in Swinton now.
So don't delay.

These figures are accurate and
official, save as to the estimated ones
of this last and incomplete quarter,
but the estimates made are founded
upon certain details that make a
fairly accurate forecast possible. It
is probable that at the end of the
vear the above figures will be found
to be virtually correct, at least with
in flUU or thereabouts.
Hence it anoears that there is to
be an excess of the apportionment of
nearly 55(100.
As far as can be ascertained there
have been no unusual or cxtraordi
miry expense during the year, out
side of repairs, at least none that
were presumably not foreseen. There
have of course been no great fires.
No detailed explanation has been
made to the public in relation to
this 'extraordinarv exoenie.
The object of this article is not to
indicate that there has been money
squandered. It may be that proper
explanation can be offered. It may
be that condtions warrant the ex
cessive expenditure. But the figures
are presented as one good Illustra
tion of the way the city's money
goes Unquestionably the taxoavers
would like to know why this has
happened.
Pernani a business administration
run on strictly business line, would
be able to keep this exoense. and
others like it. down. Meantime the
fire department is "broke", and has
been for a month or more past.
