Astpria excursionists. The train from
Astoria reaching Portland late, it was
noon before ttie steamer could leave that
city. Hut a few stops, however were
made coming up, nnd the trip was de
lightful. Everyone seems pleased with
the trip and especially with the treat
ment received at the hands of the
Astorians, who displayed their friend

manner in which they entertained her
citizens. - Although it rained slightly
dining the day, it failed to spoil the
pleasure of the trip. An extended report
will be given in tomorrow's issue.
Time and again has Tun Chko.viu.e
called attention to the need of a society
for the prevention of cruelty to animals,
and still have we need for harping on
the same question. At intervals during
the past few months the Indians from
Yakima and other places have been
bringing in large bands of horEes for
shipment to the Linnton cannery,, und
necessarily there will be among them
a number of colts. These the cannery
refuses to accept, and being of no use to
the Indians they proceed to get rid of
them in any manner possible or leave
them starving. This was a splendid op
portunity for the small boy to get a
pony, and many ol them were given
awny throughout the city. Had the boys
fed them and treated them kindly, no
complaint would be made; but instead
they were dragged about tho streets by
ropes in a cruel manner, nnd most of
them seemed to receive no feed what
ever. A day or two since several of
these colts were seen wandering about
near the garrison, the most pitable look
ing creatures imaginable, seemingly
dying of starvation. This state ol allaiis
should not he allowed in a Christian
community. If the animal? are of no
worth, let them bo put out of their
misery by an officer and not allowed to
drag themselves about in a dying con
dition.

If over there was a clasn of people who
nro .thoroughly annoyed by the ever
present write up fiend, solicitor, and all
around "bilk," It is newspaper people,
and yet most newspaper men realize
that these fakea are by far the most suc
cessful in persuading even our best busi
ness men into biting at tho advertising
fchome, tho write-up, and like utterly
UEeless advertising, nnd thereforo often
employ them. One good ad. in the
daily will be equal in value to a dozen of
such "farces," and yet they continue to
be tho "drawing card."
Yesterday Tiik Giiro.vicm: received
the following from a Grants I'ass news

solicitor, with the result which ho here

A T.ubor Saver.
Mr. Eugene Hrown, of Colfax, Wash.,
has invented a machine for piling Backs
of grain in warehouses and on platforms,
which seems to fill a "long-felt" want.
The machine consists of a portable
elevator operated with a gasolene engine
or electric power as circumstances may
dictate. The elevator is so made that it
can be raised or lowered as may be
needed without stopping the machine
for that purpose. An exhibition of this
machine was had during last week on 1
Montgomery dock No. 2, Portland,
operated by the Mutual Warehouse Co.
Quite a number of people, including
some experts in handling grain on the
city docks, were present to witness the
working of the new machine. It was
operated by a one-horse power dynamo,
as the dock is operated by electric power
exclusively. The machine performed its
work smoothly and efficiently, lifting
sack after sack to varying heights with
ease and precision, It worked at the
rate of ten sacks per minute, as many as
the man on top of the pile can take caie
of, but its capacity can bo incroaced if
desired by adding one or more additional
carriers. This ingenious appliance prom-
! ises to be a areat saver of time, muscle
and expense, especially to interior ware
houses where the necessity of piling
grain high is greater than elsewhere,
and it is predicted that it will soon come
into general use.
