A floral "wish-bone' is the appropriata

the young magician deliberately ate it.
Then for a space of two minutes he
threw himself into violent contortions.
The candy failing to appear, he said to
the expectant spectator, with an air of
great disappointment: 'I believe I've
forgotten the rest of it.'
Assorted Cvuao The Geo. S. Homer
cleared for New York yesterday. She is
the first auxiliary steam vessel that ever
cleared from the Columbia river, one of
the few vessels that clear from this port
for New York, takes the first shipment of

lumbia river bar, has a very valuable car
go, carries more than tho usual assort
ment, and in various other waj-s is dis
similar to the ordinary clearances. Her
entire cargo is worth about Ju.uuu.
Poet Obford Rocks. In answer to a
question as to the whereabouts of tho
Victoria, Captain Gage of the Bcdu, said
yesterday afternoon, I passed where
she struck at nine yesterday morning.
but couldn't make her out from where I
was. The rock on which she struck, is as
near as I could judge,about two miles from
the southernmost point of Port Orford
reef, and bears S W by "W from that reef.
It seoms to me as though it was only in
heavy weather that the sea breaks over
it.1 "That may be one reason why it was
not observed before, as in stormy weather
a vessel would naturally keep well out m
the oaing.
Oreook TiuxscoKTrxENTAL. A special
dispatch from New York to the Pioneer
Press says: It is stated on excellent au
thority that, although the matter has not
been officially announced by the direc
tors, the report that the next Oregon
Transcontinental dividend will be passed
is probably true. If not passed the divi
dend will be reduced. The officers of the
company refuse to talk on the subject,
which lends weight to th& assertion.
It is accepted as a feet on the
street, and is in great part tho cause of
tuo heavy decline m the Villard proper
ties. This has been used by the shorts to
extricate themselves from a tight pinch.
Tho mystery surrounding the Villard
properties is as great as ever, and must
do removed, to some extent, at least, be
fore any degree of confidence can be re
stored. Uregonian.

ing's Astoriak, there was a meeting of

A Model Itnlldlnc in Every Kenjiwt.
Alout i year ago it became manifest to
the citizens and taxpayers of district No,
1, that the school facilities of the dis
trict were totally inadequate io its grow
ing wants. The Astoriak took the
ground that the present needs no less
than the future demands of the district
made necessary a building that would be
fully up to the necessities of that portion
of our growing city. This iden prevailed,
and when the preliminary steps were
taken it was with the uudeistanding that
the proposed building would le in every
way a credit to the city, and in keeping
with the educational wants of those who
are some dnv to take our places.
Plans and specihcations were submit
ted to the board ot directors, but owinc
to the great difficulty experienced in pro
curing material, it was decided that the
season was too far advanced to nttempt
anything till March or April. According-
iy,iasi spring piaus were again cuneu ior,
and it was finally decided to have the
bnildinc done bv dav s work, that being.
on the whole, a sure guarantee that the
work would be done m n manner that m
sured its permanence. Tho spacious
premises on the southwest corner Court
and lieiiton streets were selected as me
site of the building, and after the nec-
essarv !radiu(i had bean done the brick
walls of the foundation were laid to a
height of eleven feet. To Mr. J. S. V ms-
iow was civen xue suiwniiieiiueiice oi
construction, and how well and faith
fully he has discharged the trust a visit
to the building will abundantly prove.
As it now stands awaiting the finishing
touches, it is the mo.t conspicuous build
ing in the city, or in fact, on the Colum
bia river, as of right it should be and i3
Tin: liXEST school norsE
in the Northwest. Built on one of the hill
side terraces among many private resi
dences that overlook the business por
tion of the city it is the first object on
which the eye rests as one approaches the
city. It has a frontage of S7 feet 8
inches on Uourt street, and J ieet on
Benton street. Entering the building
one notices the solidity with which cvery-
tbmc is constructed, and the care evinc
ed in procuring the newest contrivances
for comfort as well as the skill demon
strated in putting those appliances in
place. The brick basement is divided in
two parts. That portion lacing on lyourt
street is furthersubdivided by a hall into
two well-lighted school rooms, suitable
for primary pupils, for recitation rooms,
or for an indoor play ground as the needs
of the pupils iun- require. The rear half
of tho basement is devoted to heating
and ventilation. Two large brick furnaces
supplied by H. B. Chase furnish by,
means of huge tin pipes hot air to the
rooms above, and by an ingenious
arrangement of registers on the first floor
hall, the cold air is carried down into the
furnaces, there to be heated and ascend
to the different rooms, where further con
trivance combines to make the foul air
pass out of the rooms through a venti
lator, the final passage of the air being
through a well constructed ventilator in
tho tower. Pnssine to the first floor the
architectural beauty of tho stairs, built
by h,. and J. A. Martin, is noticeable, and
traversing a spacious hall lour well light
ed rooms are presented to view. Each
room is provided with registers,
speaking tubes, ventilators, patent
single desks, patent blackboards built
mio me wans, spacious anu weu-warmeu
closets for lunch baskets, coats, shawls,
hats, etc., and has six large windows
from which a magnificent view is observ
able. The basement rooms arc "55 feet
square, the other looms are 23 feet 4
inches by .11 feet, and have nigh and
finely finished ceilings. On tho next floor
above are four rooms similar in size and
finish to those below, furnished m accord
ance with tho requirements of tho larger
pupils. The northeast room on this floor
is intended for the use of the principal
and is connected by a row of speaking
tube annunciators with even' part ol the
building.
A GENERAL AIR OI" COMFORT
pervades the whole building and it seems
tho design ot tho constructors that as lar
as surroundings go tho remembrance of
the days of study passed therein shall
always bo a pleasant one to the rising
generation.
Ascending from the principal s room
the library is the next point of attrac
tion. The rear portion of this floor is
devoted to Hues and to two iron tanks,
The complete system of water
pipes that run through the
buildincr. nlaced therein bv Rnd
dock &. Wheeler, and now ready to be
connected with the city mains are here
connected with . additional safeguard
against fire, as in that event those tanks
could Hood the particular locality where
the nre might be discovered at extremely
short notice. Above this room is the
tower, from which floats the American
flag, fit emblem of our country's hope
and pride as it waves abov6 an American
schoolhouse, wherein are taught Amen
can ideas.
The frame of the building Ls of Oregon
fir, furnished by Mr. J. C. Trullinger. the
finish and mouldings are of cedar from
Hansen Bros, factory, the tin work was
done bv E. R. Hawes, the masonry and
plastering by Wm. Tarrant, painting bv
u. n. btockton. and the work m all its
departments reflects credit upon its de
signers.
Mr. "Wiuslow thinks that he will be able
to hand the keys to the directors about
New Years; it is tho intention to legin
school there next Monday, tho work re
maining to be done being little more
than finishing up and removing the de
bris.
To-I)a)V Election.

city charter, there will be an election in
this city to-day for the purpose of elect

From the Astoria Chamber of Commerce.
At a recent meeting of the Astoria
chamber of commerce the following me
morial was ordered sent to Congressman
George to be laid before the house of rep
resentatives ;
To the Honorable the Senate and House of
Representatives of tlie United States of
America in Congress assembled:
Your memorialists, the Astoria cham
ber ol commerce of Astoria, Oregon, re
spectfully represent to your honorable
body:
That tho very large and rapidly increas
ing liusiness oi doiu passenger anu ireigut
traffic, by steamships and sailing vessels.
between the Columbia river and other
ports of the world, demands that the life
saving service at the mouth of the Co
lumbia river and along the Pacific coast
be increased to meet the requirement? of
the increasing commerce, and that lull
crews bo maintained throughout the en
tire year at the more important stations.
including the mouth of said Columbia
river.
That the life-saving station now at the
mouth of the Columbia river is manned
by a crew during a portion of said j'ear
onl3 for the reason that the appropria
tions heretofore made by congress for the
support and maintenance of the life-saving
service have been insufficient to allow
of a crew being kept more than six
months of each year.
Therefore-, vonr memorialists wav thnt
your honorable body will make addi
tional and adequate appropriations for
increasing the number of life-saving sta
tions on the Pacific coast, and for the
keeping of crews at the more important
stations; and as in duty bound your me
morialists will ever pray. etc.

Something for Astoria to Think Or.
The secretary read a letter from R.
Peterson of Gray's harbor, calling atten
tion to the lack of transportation facili
ties between Portland and that section,
and suggesting that the trade of Pacific
and Chenalis counties is well worth tho
attempt of merchants. In this connec
tion it was stated that a recent incorpor
ation proposed to build a narrow gauge
railroad from Ilwaco, and to place steam
ers on Shoalwater bay and Gray's harbor.
Now that steam connection by sea is sus
pended for tho winter, the necessity of
land service is keenly felt. Members of
the board exhibited much interest, and
expressed their willingness to assist the
corporation by taking stock. Portland
