Court Adjourns
The February term of the circuit

will be the June term, though Judge
McBride states that he expects to
return here sometime In May to set
various cases" for trial. It is prob
able that Judge McBride may appear
here at times in the future, though it
is understood that he has said there
is a possibility he may turn all of
the work In this county over to the
now Judge to be appointed. On the
other hand the more p'robable ar
rangement will be thaf one judge
would take the equity cases and the
other the law cases, or some such
division of the labor. The bill pro
viding for the new judge will not
become law until May 21 when the
appointment will probably be made
at once. . . ,

New Service Inaugurated
The Troy Laundry, of this city, is
just starting a new line of service,
which, if it met 1 1 with general ap
proval and patronage, will be made
one of the leading features of their
extensive business in this city and
section. The management proposes
to do rough-dry washing for families
at so much per pound, the rate mak
ing it easier for families to meet, and
gives perfect, service short of, the
ironing. It is the intention to push
this line of work to such a point as
shall warrant the enlargement of the
already big plant here. This is an
advantage that will be made of in
stantly by hundreds of families In
this section.
Calenders Win Suit
Judge McBride announced yester
day afternoon informally that he
would hand down a decision in the
suit 4 fthe Callcndcr Company
against the county In favor of the
company. This was an action brought
by the company to restrain the
county from imposing taxes on it,
on the grounds that it was a Wash
ington corporation, and the decision
wil) mean that the city and county
may not impose any taxes against
the company or collect the back
taxes already laid. The decision is
made on the grounds that inasmuch
as the company was chartered in
Washington, it necessarily has its
principal office there and is liable to
taxation there. Attorney Fulton ap
peared for the company. In circuit
court yesterday decree was given to
the plaintiff in the suit for divorce
brought by Phillinpa Funk vs. Geo.
C. Funk. In the case of J. A. Mont
gomery vs. R. M. Hall the demurrer
was sustained- In the case of the
Columbia River Packers' Associa
tion the plaintiff took judgment by
default. In the case of Samuel El
more vs. Elizabeth Bakka judgment
was given to the plaintiff by de
fault. Breaks In The Pipe
During the past week the pipe line
broke twice, each break being a
pretty bad one, and during the re
pairs on one the water in the reser
voir became quite low. By some it
is thought that the present pipe line,
though admittedly In fairly bad
hpe, might last a long time yet.
though naturally repairs, some of
them on an extensive scale, would be
expected. Arthur I. Adams, the en
gineer, whose familiarity with the
works is well known, once advised
the commissioners that . it would
never pay to put In a new pipe line
until the annual repairs , exceeded
$14,000. Thus far the annual repairs
have never exceeded $1000. Mr.
Adams' dictum would perhaps re
quire some explanation, but never
theless such was his judgment on the
matter. To construct an entirely
new pipe line would cost perhaps
$125,000.
Found Dynamite
A boy notified the police depart
ment yesterday that he had found a
box on the hilltop at Tenth and Irv
ing which he thought contained dy
namite. Officer Harry Rinn went to
investigate and found a box which
contained enough dynamite to blow
up half the town, there being nearly
50 sticks. The box was carried to the
Foard & Stokes hardware store and
left for safe keeping. This dynamite
had been apparently left there by the
contractor who has been working on
the job, and it must have Jeen there
from three weeks to as many months.
Whoever left it did so with a care
lessness that seems little short of
criminal, as it it a place where chil
dren are very likely to go, and that
some tots did not get hold of it and
blow themselves to Kingdom Come
is perhaps a matter of providential
good fortune more than anything
else. This is not the first time re
cently that contractors have care
lessly left dynamite behind them.
First Company Play
The boys of the First Company,
Coast Artillery, have made all ar
rangements to give a local play
called "The Captain and the Spy,"
a military drama in four acts, dealing
with incidents during the Spanish
war, The cast is made up from
members of the company and is put
on for the purpose of raising a little
money to better equip and fit up the
armory and ' company robms.. The
boys serve without pay, the State
furnishes enough money to pay arm
ory, rental, but every other item of
expense must be met by the com
pany members. Numerous articles
are needed to properly equip the
company and the treasury is rather
low, so this means has been decided
upon. Inasmuch as the membersof
the company serve without pay, and
in time of war would be called by
the government to go to the front,
the company thinks their means of
raising a little money is one that
should be helped and commended ,by
the public as much as possible. Be
sides the play is sure to be an ex
cellent one, and everyone that at
tends is sure to get his money's
worth. ' '

II MOLDEfJ'S CAREER
01 OF UK"
FUNERAL OBSEQUIES OCCUR
HERE TOMORROW MORN
INO AT 10:30.
The sad news of the death, In
Portland, of Ebenerer C Holdtn, in
yesterday's Morning Astorina, caused
widespread grief in the great circle
of friends who had cherished him for
long years as one of the best and
most upright of Astoria's citizens.
Everybody who knew him and they
are legioa hereabout, were busy all
of yesterday exchanging expressions
of profound regret at the news, and
recalling all the clever and kindly in
cidents that marked their several and
peculiar relations with him during
all the years he dwelt here.
All that was mortal of Mr. Holden
will arrive in this city today, and
the funeral ceremonies will take
place tomorrow morning at. 10:30
o'clock at the First Presbyterian
church, Rev. W. S. Gilbert, pastor,
officiating. The members of Temple
Lodge No. 7, A. F. & A. M. of this
cM, will conduct the ceremonies at
the grave-side and Interment will be
had at Ocean View cemetery. The
funeral party will take the noon
train to Ocean View.
He leaves to grieve his loss, his
widow, Mrs, E. R. Holden, and four
daughters, as follows: Mrs. Charles
H. Callender, of this city; Mrs.
Mary E. Strong, of Portland; Mrs;
A. W. McKenzie, of Spokane, and
Mrs. C. M. Brink, of Portland. Two
of the children born to Mr. and Mrs.
Holden died some years ago. His
stricken widow was Miss Emma
Rudd, of Sierra City, Cal., to whom
he was wedded in 1853.
Mr, Holden was an ardent and
profoundly read Mason; and for 22
years he served Temple Lodge in
this city as its secretary; ,and It Is
said that his records,, as such officer
(as well j,s those of his like service
in tne Astoria cnamDer pt com
merce, for many years), were exquis
ite models of inscription and beau
tiful orderliness and are among the
most complete in detail of any In the
country.
Mr. Holden was in his 85th year,
having been born at Slinford, in
Sussex, England, on the 17th of Sep
tember, 1824. And, according to the
biographical records maintained by
the Oregon Historical Society of
which he was an ardent and long
time member, he was apprenticed, at
the age of eight years, to the Christ
Hospital, of London, for six years.
He was apprenticed out from there
to a firm of booksellers, Simpkin,
Marshall & Company, , staying with
them until 1844, when he became a
school teacher in one of the country
towns of Staffordshire, and three
years later came to America, going
first to Cincinnati, Ohio, and later to
Buffalo, New York.
In May of 1849 he joined a party
bound for the Pacific Coast and
after reaching Walla Walla where
the teams of the party failed them,
he,' with others, footed it into Oregon
City, where he arrived in the early
fall of that year. He afterward min
ed on the Yuba river in California,
arid later went to' Hong Kong, as
supercargo on a trans-Pacific ship,
and remained there until 1853. Re
turning to San Francisco, he 'went
into the hotel business (after mining
until 1859, and then his health forc
ed him to find a climate more con
genial and this he sought at Vic
toria, B. C, where he also kept a
hotel and returned to Oregon in
1868. He took up logging and lum
bering and in 1872 put his earnings
in the hotel business again, this time
at Oregon City, and one vear later
came to Astoria, where he resided
until very shortly before his final ill
ness beset him, when he went to the
horn of his daughter, Mrs. Strong
at Portland, and there he breath
ed his last, honored of all men and
leaving behind him the record of a
high manliness that is a splendid
model for all who may become fa
miliar with it. He was always an
upright and just man in business and
methodical and earnest in all he had
to do, careful and conscientious to
the last degree, and a fine, true citi
zen in every sense of that term. He
will' be sincerely mourned in this
city for many a day ' and year to
come, and every time his memory is
recalled, it will be to honor him, as
he honored his friends and his home-
motion that another judge be sub
mitted in the stead of Judge Easter
brook, on the ground that he waa
the husband of the presumably in
jured party, but the motion was de
nied. Attorney Eakin appeared for
the prosecution. After the fine was
imposed Attorney Brbwnell gave no
tice that he would carry the case to
the circuit court on a writ of review,
alleging that the complaint does not
set forth any crime.
B. H. Jagerstrora of Tacoma waa
among the business tourists noted ia
this city yesterday.
John Cordano came down from the
metropolis yesterday on a matter of
business, and will spend Sunday
with Astoria friend. .
