citizen, and it bore the dual signa
tures of Mr. Benson in his capacities
as Governor and Secretary of State;
being signed by "Frank W. Benson,
Governor," and attested by "Frank
V. Benson, Secretary of State." It
is quite a rarity Jn Oregon, and the
holder of it intends to keep it as a
souvenir of the extraordinary condi
tion that once existed in Oregon.
To Review the Case
A writ of review was taken yester
day in the case of the city of War
rcnton vs. Fred N., Broemser who

Business Picking Up
Wlfcn the O. R. & N. steamer
N'ahcotta, Captain Parker, docked at
the O. R. & N. yesterday afternoon,
hc had on board 600 sacks of oys
ter for San Francisco delivery, which
will go out on the Rose City- Captain
Parker ssys that after the great
earthquake and fire in San Francisco,
the trade in oysters from here drop
ped off notably, some weeks but two
or 300 sacks going out; but now the
business has resumed almost normal
conditions and is steadily Increasing
each week.
Mill la Prospering
While the lumber business Is quiet
and mills generally over the country
are not running full blast, it is said
that the Clatsop mills were never in
more prosperous condition than now.
In fact, it is said, they are doing ex
ceedingly well- A few years ago the
Cl.ntop mills went into the sash and
door business, and while at first this
did not succeed well, it has lately
picked up to a wonderful degree and
the mill has more orders than it can
handle. If the accounts told of this
mill's business are .all true it really is
doing a very fine business, and As
toria will be glad to know that one
of its big industries is getting along
so prosperously.
Store of Hia Own
O- G. Campbell, who for the past
several years has been the prescrip
ts clerk in the Rogers pharmacy,
will open a drug store of his own in
Seattle and today Mr. and Mrs
Campbell will leave for the northern
city. Their many friends here will
regret to see them leave, though na
turally glad that Mr. Campbell is to
start out in business for himself. His
Seattle store will be at 4559 Califor
nia avenue, and they invite their As
toria friends to "remember the num
ber" and call to see them while up
there.
Fire Drill-
There was fire drill at the High
School yesterday, and the 400 pupils
inarched out at the sound of the gong
in quick order. They made excellent
time. All of the schools regularily
hold these fire drills and 'doubtless
the training would prove of the high
est value in the event that a fire ever
actually broke out, for the drills train
the children to go out in perfect or
der instead of making a mad rush
and it is the panicky rushes that
usually cause the worst trouble. When
the gongs ring in the schools they
naturally cause excitement, for it is
never known by the teachers and
pupils whether there is really a fire
or not, but the pupils immediately
drop their books and without an in
stant's hesitation form Into line
and march out.
The Company Play
"The Captain and the Spy given
by the First Company at the Astoria
Theatre, drew another good "house
last night, and in the audience were
upwards of 150 of the regulars from
Fort Stevens, who had come up es
pecially for the purpose of attending
the drama. The local company boys
were greatly pleased at the compli
ment paid them by the visiting sol
diers. The attendance last night was
fully equal to that of the first night,
and the play went off more smoothly
the second night. The orchestral
music was furnished by the Columbia
orchestra and they gave fine satisfac
tion and the Company boys feel
grateful to them for their fine serv
ices. The players have been congrat
ulated by many for the excellent pre
sentation of their play, and besides
the fun and excitement they have had
out of it, they will come out ahead
with perhaps upwards of $100 which
will be used in purchasing necessaries
for the armory.

THE ASTORIA IDEA OF
THE BOARD'S BLUfl
AN INTELLIGENT FISHERMAN
TELLS WHAT HE AND HIS
BRETHREN WILL DO.
In conversation with a very intelli
gent fisherman of this city, yesterday
a reporter for the Astorlan was given
to understand in terms that were not
at all equivocal, that "the fishermen
at this end of the Columbia River are
unanimously against the recent action
of the State Board of Fish Commis
nioners in receding from its order
closing the Willamette and Clacka
mas rivers, for a number of reasons,
chief of which are; that it is a piece
of very bad faith to the Washington
lUhcrmen, whose representatives
joined heartily in the inter-state
agreement for joint legislative action
looking to a rational and mutual clos
ed season on the Columbia and its
tributaries; a specific and deliberate
discrimination against the fishermen
on both sides the greater river; a
sign of official weakness in being
drawn into such a lapse from Us
plain duty under the law; an official
blow to the industry generally, in
that a special privilege is granted a
certain section and certain people,
when the actual desire of the major
ity in both states was for a full clos-
ed season for all concerned; that the
real object of the closed season is
vitiated entirely by permitting the
salmon to pass all points on the low
er river, only to be caught, killed and
marketed on the upper reaches and
streams; and lastly, that it lays the
new joint-law open to radical mis
construction, evasion, and deliberate
voidance by the fishermen down this
way, who will probably not hesitate to
fish freely and openly during the
period that has been conceded to the
fishermen on the upper rivers. We
believe we may go ahead and fish
here for that time; and that no jury
can be found in tbia county that will
convict us of a violation of the law,
which has been practically annulled
by the very authority that was creat
ed to enforce and conserve it.
Saloon Ordinance-
Councilman Curtis has prepared
another ordinance in relation to the
saloons which he intends to introduce
in the council in lieu of the one
vetoed by Mayor Smith. The new
ordinance also seems to be subject
to criticism, though the haste with
which Mr. Curtis drafted it may ex
plain why it is not a perfected meas
ure. Judging from the remarks made
by several councilmen there is now a
manifest reluctance to rush into any
matter of this kind, and probably if
any such ordinance is passed it will
only be after it has been studied
carefully by a committee and all of
the legal aspects of the matter gone
into very thoroughly. If it be true,
as surmised by some, that the statute
in relation to Sunday closing is a
dead letter, then it would be possible
for the council to adopt an ordinance
which would provide for Sunday clos
ing on only part of the day, and it is
known that such a comparative clos
ing would please many. It is sug
gested that a closing from 2 o'clock
Sunday morning to say 4 o'clock
Sunday afternoon might be accept
able to many. At all events it is
probable the council is not going to
sit meekly by and have some ordi
nance, which may be very good, or
may be very bad, rushed through.
A Cleaner That Cleans.
W. H. Fellman, the well known
furniture man, is at the head of the
carpet cleaning industry in Astoria,
because he possesses the ' best and
only Vacuum carpet cleaner in the
city. He will send it to any house,
on demand, at moderate rates, and
clean your carpets on the floor, with
out an atom of dust appearing any
where in the process, and to the sav
ing of household drudgery in this
line, for the women of the homes. It
is the cleaner that cleans, and oper
ates quickly, silently, and admirably.
Drop in and leave your order.
The Man Who Eats.
The man who eats does so with
the expectation of being satisfied. To
this end he seeks the best possible
place to gratify his normal appetite at
most rational expense. These things
account for the steady stream of
people to and from the portals of the
Palace Restaurant in this city. The
reputation of the Palace Is founded
immoveably upon the certainty and
amplitude of the service it renders to
every purse, and appetite, big and
little. Open day and night. Com
mercial streets, opposite the Page
building.

"The soul and the body are si in

TRAVELS OF A PIN
Took Long Journey Through A Wo
man's Body.
CINCINNATI,March 26.-After
traveling for four months through
the body of Mrs. Oakla Bay Jennings
piercing the walls of the stomach and
penetrating the lungs, aglass headed
steel pin accidentally swallowed by
Mrs. Jennings, again made its appear
ance in her mouth and has been ex
tracted. Mrs. Jennings was walking
along the street one day about four
months ago when she swallowed the
pin. Within a few days her lungs
became affected and she was attack
ed with severe coughing spells. Her
condition grew worse and within the
past several weeks she almost lost
her voice. Wednesday night she was
seized with a severe choking attack,
threw up her hands and called to her
husband for assistance. The woman
put her hand to her mouth and ex
tracted the pin from the soft palate,
from which one end of it projected.
The pin had made a complete circle
in the woman's body. It had become
very rusty and a hard substance had
accumulated on it, making it almost
twice as large as it originally had
been.
, Mrs. Jennings experienced instant
relief upon its extraction and is
hopefully looking forward to comp
lete recovery. .
