"When the portals of the temple of jus

resulted in the assault by Ja3per, who

BtraiED TucAsunn. A family from Mis

of them, a boy of twelve years, was taken
seriously ill. Last week ho disclosed the
fact that two years ago ho accidentally
discovered at their Missouri home a ket
tle containing forty nine large gold
pieces and n quantitj' of silver and old
rotten notes. Ho had kept his discovery
a secret, returning the kettle to the hid
ing place. It seems the boy, with unusual
foresight, was bearding the treasure up
for future use and could not help casting
out vague hints that he knew where ho
could get all tho money he wanted when
ne was a man, mnts to which no impor
tance was attached at the time, but which
now confirm the boy's story. Tho boy's
iiiness nas taiccn a lavorable turn and
his recovery is only a matter of time,
when his father will return with him to
Miasouri and unearth the buried treasure.
Gkacc CnuEcu School. The school

and singing of Christmas carols; a

With a heart for any fate.

Oil and Vikegak. "What I don't
like,' said the steady boarder at tho din
ner table yesterday, "is to order tender
loin stake and get something else. Now,
when I was runnine a restaurant in Port'
laud n few years ago I made quite a ref
utation for tender meat, audi don't mind
telling you in confidence how I fixed
things. You see there's only a few pounds
of tenderloin steak in the whole beef, and
you can't give everyone that calls for it
a genuine tenderloin without crowding
matters a little. I used to get common
sound steak and pickle it over nieht in
oil and vinegar. That softens the fibres
and mates the meat tender, when tho
moat is proporh tooked vou can't tell tho
difference, and if tho cook understands
hov to trim and serve it, and you look
out xo Keep your Knives ground fiharp,
you can bet on havine tenderloin steaks

difference. Will I have a cigar? "Well,

The common council of the city of As
toria held a special meeting last evening.
Present, Mayor Halm, Councilmen Case,
Cooper, Johns, Hume and Trenchard.
Mr. Case suggested that the council
proceed to the election of a councilman
to fill the vacancy occurring by the re
moval of Councilman Carruthers from
the First ward.
A communication from the citizens of
the First ward, recommending M. J. Kin
ney for councilman, was read. Mr.
Trenchard nominated Mr. M. J. Kinney
and he was elected by a unanimous vote.
The following bills were presonted and
ordered paid: Mrs. P. Qmnn, 25.20; I.
W. Case, 4-r0: Jackins fc Parks. .$t2-'K);
A. V. Allen. $2.20; Thof. Logan, $7f: G.
F. Parker, $100.
The bills of judges and clerks of elec
tion and special poKce wero also ordered
paid.
Bill for drawing map of the cemetery
for $100, was brought up by Councilman
Trenchard, who stated that the contract
for the man was SIS, if the drawer did tho
surveying, otherwise $2S, and he could
not understand how the bill should
be $100, when tho committee had
made no such bargain, and bo
recommended that the bill be
re-referred to the committee on public
property. Mayor Halm stated that this
was tho proper course, as tho council had
no use for $15 worth of map, and it
wouldn't do to slice off that amount.
Councilman Johns stated that he had
been over the cemetery grounds, and a
person looking at the grounds in their
present condition and the map would be
unable to recognize it.
lhe proposition made by the Columbia
Water Comnauv whs next broucht no:
tliere being no communication in writing,
themayor stated that if the committee
desired to confer with Mr. Thompson or
their agent, there being no proposition
before the council from that company
iue council couiu not consider it.
Tho matter of the suspension of Thos.
Hunter was next brought up. A commu
nication from Clark Loughrey to the
effect that he suspended Mr. Hunter, as
there was no more work to do outsido of
what he and tho two officers could attend
to, was read.
Ihe mayor stated that the chief of po
lice had no power to suspend an officer
except for the causes mentioned in the
charter, neglect of duty, etc. On iuo
tion the matter was referred to tho com
mittee on health and police.
Tho following ordinances were passed:
An ordinance extending the time of the
improvement of Hamilton street until
tho SOth day of April, 1S34, read third
time under suspension of the rules and
passed.
An ordinance providing for the time
and manner of improving Genevieve
street, read third time and passed.
Un motion council adjourned.
The Fire YiMtnlay.
"When the few and feeble notes of the
fire alann sounded faintly at noonj'ester-
day, JUT men took hasty positions on
Squemoqua street at its junction with
Main, while 211 more stood on the last
uaiued thoroughfare to see tlic depart
ment get to work. Others whose noon
day meal was interrupted hastened to ad
jacent roofs, and one man in the exuber
ance of an impatient disposition,chmbcd
a flag-staff and yelled "fire!" Several oth
ers made the same remark, which added
to the manifest interest. A shaky-looking
chimney in ihe rear of a frame building
on the west side of Main street was ihe
center of attraction. Thin wreuths of
smoke were issuing from tho ventilated
bricks and tho general impression wjih
thut the red demon was concealed therein.
This impression was intensified by tho
lurther proseuca of a puu of smoke
from that particular portion of the roof
whore the bricks emerge, as it were, from
the surrounding shingles. JJy this time
Alert H. fc L. No. 1 had arrived and was
busilv engaged in chopping away some
of the shingles to admit of water being
thrown in from the leather buckets that
were filled and handed up bv other mem
bors of tho company, llescuo No. 2 laid
pipe, and at u subsequent stage of the
conflagration threw n stroani. Astoria
No. 1 stationed their hoso cart on Benton
street and utilized the stream from their
engine in giving that portion of tho ap
paratus a bath. By this time it was de
cided that there was no real danger from
the devouring element, and the order to
take up being given, the procession
moved. Damages, $7.75: insured.
Closini; Exercises at Cedar Street School.
The usual programme of school duties
at Cedar street school was pleasantly
varied yesterday afternoon by the ren
dition of an attractive programme by tho
pupils. Tho principal's room was well
filled with pupils and visitors who evinc
ed tho greatest pleasure at ihe evident
progress mads by the children. Follow

ihe above, interspersed with songs and

a manner that would do credit to older
heads and well illustrated the careful
training bestowed upon the pupils by tho
teachers.
At the close of the exercises Rev. "Wrn.
Boberts in a few well chosen remarks
called attention to tho desirability of
correctly learning to speak English. Miss
Lawrence, the principal, then announced
a vacation till Wednesday, January 2.

SAJiTA CLAUS AT WORK.
The Hint: of Christmas In Jolly Good
Humor.
"Come in," said a cheery voice.
A knock nt the door marked "Privato
office of Santa Claus" had elicited this
hearty response.
The visitor entered tho room. Good old
Santa Claus stood in his shirt sleeves
mixing lather.
"Y'hy, what are you going to do?"
was the spontaneous query of the visi
tor.
"Shave f was the laconic reply. j
The direful consequences that would!
arise from such an act had not entered !
the mind of tho good old saint, who;
wouia never oe recognized asaama ciaus
without his busby hair and lace mil of
whiskers.
"For mercy's sake, don't do it,' pleaded
tho excited caller. "You will lose your
identity if you do. Think how many,
many years you uavo presenreu juss mat
little red nose to view."
'1 don't count by years, nut by Christ
mas tides," replied Santa Claus. "but I
will spare tho whiskers if you think that
iny changed face would frighten the chil
dren on Christmas eve." And a kindly
look that boded well for the little ones
came into his eyes.
"So vou want to interview me. eh ?"
chuckled Saute. "Just conic iuto my"
store and see what I have for your jx-o-ple,"
and he led the way into a vast room,
which seemed to be all out-doors, so big
was it. An army of assistants were hard
at work on their labor of love. "For it's
only a few day's more," chirped Santa.
And the hammers flew and tho saws
whizzed and the forges scattered sparks
of gold, ihe candy-makers moulded
their wares into tempting shapes, and
the doll-makers bent to their task of
making 2f,0,000,l.OO spuiking dolls.
The workmen didnotsbirK wbenftamn
Claus was awayJjut his presence gavo
them new vigor, and the amount of work
they did was astonishing. Presents for
babes, for little boys and little girls, for
larger children, for young men and .mai
dens., for staid married folks, and for the
childhood of old age, wero stacked up in
huge piles, covering acres of ground,
seemingly in confusion; but they were j
not, all 'being ready for the cunning
hands of tho packers.
Then bauta escorted his visitor to his
public office, where his clerks wero dash
ing away at corespondenco and filling up
great books with the names of children
and tho description of presents. Every
laud and ever tongue were represented,
but it was noticed that tho American de
partment was the largest, and its clerks
wero the busiest of the lot. The tele
phone, which connected with the branch
office, was ringing all tho time.
"Come and listen to tho reports," said
Santa-to tho visitor, as he grasped tho
transmitter and placed it to his ear, say
ing "Hello," in a very natural manner.
"Hello! This is headquarters. Yes.
Santa."
This reply seemed to stagg6r the man
at tho otner end, ns tho saint rarely an
swers any of tho hundred telephones.
"Go ahead," resumed Santa, "give me
a full report. Who? Little Jimmy Green,
ha, ha! Been a bad bay, eh? Pulled tho
head off the doll 1 gave his sister lost
Christmas. That's bad. Did you ask if
he should bo forgotten this Christmas on
account of it? Well, I should say not.
Do you think I want to lose my reputa
tion? Pll givo him a toy pistol. Hold
on a minute, I'm called at tho Berlin tel
ephone.
Hanging up the ear-trumpst Santa
Claus tripped to tho telephone marked
JJerliu. '
"You must excuse me,"' said the kind
old man to his caller, "but I am called up
by influential men now and then, who
are real!' my agents. Just before yon
came I had a nice chat with Emperor
William, of Germany, who asked mo to
tako caro of the German children in
America."
The popular saint then resumed the
telephone. The anent was telling him a
long story which interested Santa very
much, as his exclamations attested. Af
ter ho had finished, the listener turned
to his guest rnd said:
"My trusty man on the Pacific coast
has been talking on a subject that pains
me every year at this happy season. It
is impossible for me to visit every child,
and it grieves mo to think of the many
little worn stockings that oro hung up in
my namo in which the trusting wearers
hud nothing but disappointment on
Christmas Day, tho one day of all the
year in which such a thing should not
exist. .Now, I cannot tend to everything,,
and really, I wish when you get back to"
Sour office you would inform my able
and of assistants that I shall depend on
them to look out for many oi tho child
ren in your city, even if they do no more
than to fill them to the necks with
goodie?. Here is a list of the persons to
whom I allude."
This list contains .the names of many
rich men and women which if published
would create a sensation, and many who
have given in secret would gain a rep
utation far different from tho ono they
now enjoy.
"Why, isanta, exclaimed the visitor,
'do you really mean that these persons
delight to please child life, and will bo
wining io assist you mis iurisininsr
"I assuredly do." replied the good old
saint, with a tear of gratitude in his eye,
my coming was eagerly looked for by
them when thov were vounp. and tho onlv
way in which they can revive those pleas
ant memories is through the grateful
hearts of other children, made so by their
beneficence."
Just then the St. Petersburg telephone
rang out loudly for Santa Clans, tho Lon
don telephone joined in, and then as if
by a concerted signal all tho bells in tho
room chimed merrily. In the midst of
which musio tho visitor took his de
parture.
