Flag Presentation tiy tie Oil Boys In Bine, TO SCHOOL JUSTItlCT XO. XIXE. There was a novel and attractive scene yesterday in the city, which stirred the feelings of patriotism in the breast of even- beholder and par ticipant, and planted lessons of fidelity in the hearts of several hundred school children. The occasion was the presentation ! of a fine, large American flag to school number nine, at upper Astoria, by dishing Post No. 1-1. Grand Army of the Republic. Headed by the drum corps in full uniform, the members of the post marched from their hall on Second street at 2:30 r. m., to the Court street school, where about 1G0 children with their teachers, headed by Prof. M. L. Pratt, joined the line and the procession marched down the liill and on Third street to the Cedar street school. Nearly ;is many more children joined the ranks, there, and the entire procession marched to Upper Astoria and into the large yard of school number nine, where the teachers and scholars were drawn up in line to receive their visitors. Marching around the yard was con tinued until all were arranged in a hollow square. About 500 children, 23 veterans and nearly 203 ladies and gentlemen were present. Rev. G. W. Grannis officiated as master of cere monies, and at 3:40 i jr., introduced Rev. Dr. E. W. Garner, who offered a fervent and patriotic prayer. C. A. May, commander of the iost, was called on and presented the Hag to the school, giving the order for it to be raised. Promptly the flag was run up to the top of the pole which sur mounts the school building, and as it floated in the breeze, three cheers were given by all assembled, accompanied by the drum corps on their drums. Led by Prof. Pratt, the children sang the "Red, White and Blue," and the patriotic strains mounded well in the clear air of the ocean breeze blown inland. Rev. G. C. Hall was introduced and delivered an able address, principally symbolical, referring to the origin and signification ot the flag and its com ponent parts and colors. The thirteen stripes denoting the original thirteen colonies, who engaged in the war of the Revolution; the -12 stars in the blue field the present states of the Union; the red strips are suggestive of the baptism of blood in which the nation was born, while the pure white is indicative ot the Angel ot Peace, who now floats lovingly over the en tire land. He referred to the comrades of the Grand Army present, who had fol lowed the starry banner on man' a hard fought field, but now were living in peace at home, and in their name presented the flag to school No. 9. Though he spoke only seven minutes, it was an able and stiring address and elicited merited applause. Wm. H. Barker, one of the school directors responded in the name of the board, accepting the flag as a gift from the post and as a sacred trust to be kept by the school. Though born in foreign lands and with kindly mem ories of the land of his nativity, he considered America as his laud, and the stars and stripes as his flag, and his remarks were as truly patriotic as though to the manor born. Al though hi speech was brief, it was commendable, and received with applause. Prof. M. L. Pratt, principal of the Court street school, responded to the presentation of the flag, accepting it in the name of the school children of the state ot Oregon. He made a feel ing aud appropriate allusion to the veterans present, to whom and their comrades living and dead, the nation owes a debt of gratitude which can never be repaid. The public schools of our land are the bulwarlcs and citadels of liberty, and in the name ot the children, he pledged devotion to the flag. Miss Mary Lawrence, principal of the Cedar street school, then intro duced Miss Mollio Foster, who recited very creditably, John Greenleaf Whittier's stirring poem " Barbara Freitchie." Miss Hilma Erickson, a young miss ot about fourteen years of age, in a remarkably clear and distinct voice, with proper emphasis and in a manner far m advance of youthful declanners, recited an article on the American flag, as ably written as it w;is finely deliv ered, and was indeed one of the prin cipal features or the occasion. The applause given the young lady was well merited. Master George Barker recited the poem, "Nobly our flag floats o'er us to-day," in a creditable manner. Master Oliver Bell read a well writ ton essay on "The Stars and Stripes," which was of an historical nature aud appealed to patriotism. The pupils of school nine then sang as the closing ode, "Our Own Flag." Rev. G. W. Grannis desired a re spouse in the name of The Press, aud called on Major E. A. Weed, of The Astorian, who referred to the days of '61, when thousands of loyal men answered the call of the martyred President Lincoln and rallied to the support of the nation and the defense of the flag, among whom were many members of the press. He spoke of the beauty of the banner as seen by a wounded soldier coming from Libby prison, and urged fidelity to country on the part of the rising gen eration, now coming upon the stage of life to take the places of those who participated in the stirring scenes of '61 to '65, and who are fast passing away. The press is ever ready to uphold and sustain the public school as it is the cradle of liberty and I one of the fundamental principles of our national unity. Three cheers were then given for the flag and our country, and at 4:30 p. si. the lino of march was taken up, the visitors returned to their homes, and the national ensign waved in the breeze its parting salute, proudly and grandly. A SUDDEN DEATH1 J. F. Warren Expires Last Evenlae. J. F. "Warren, ot Knappa, died suddenly last evening from bleeding of the lungs. He -was apparently as well as usual yesterday afternoon, and while lying on the lounge at his logging camp reading the paper he began to bleed at the lungs, and before assistance could arrive he died.

Joseph Hobenr. president of the Stale Sunday School Convention, is very desirous of organizing a num ber more county Sunday school unions before the session of the national union, which is to be held in Chicago in July. Until yesterday only four counties m this state had organized. but this one here last evening makes j five in the state at present. In many I states they are in every county, andt Ivev. Hoberg desires Oregon to be well represeuteu m tins respect, conse quently he is working earnestly to ac complish the desired result A Fraser river fisherman litis found some specimens of the lamprey eel on salmon caught by him in the river. The lamprey is a denizen ot salt water, bnt often ascends streams in the spring for the purpose ot spawn ing. They live by sucking the blood ot other fishes, and one of the lampreys when found, had bored quite a distance in the salmon on which it wa3 feeding. The only bid received by Lieut. Van Dusen for tho removal of the two rilled guns and barbette carriages from the TJ. P. dock to Fort Canby, was from tho steamer 0. K. for $250, but ho considers tho price too high. He will trv and havo the steamer 3Ian zanita transfer the guns, as she has every facility for liandling such heavy pieces in good style. Elsewhero appears a table of con siderable interest to candidates and others. So many havo asked for a look at the files ot Trre Astobiax for June, '88, mat tho voto by precincts at tho Juno election in that year is published for general information. People who havo temporary access to guns aud pistols should be careful how they fire mem in the suburbs of the city. Some people object to hear ing shot andbullets whizzing by their ears and their objections in this regard should be respected. Seaside Lodge, No. 12, A. O. TJ. W., expects a rousing meeting to-night, with-a full attendance and mo initiation of a number of new members. Ballot ing for candidates proposed last week, will occupy quite a portion of tho session. Last week IJriday evening, Mrs. Nellie Thompson went up on tho steamer to visit her children in Port land, who were said to be sightly ill The sad tidings reached here yester day of the death of both of them.

Six months have elapsed since the present officers of tho Rescue club were elected, aud that they have been faithful to the interests of "the organi zation, is apparent from a perusal of their financial reports, which will be presented at the meeting to-night, when the regular semi-annual election ot officers will take place. At the beginning of the present term, November 1G, 1889, there was a balance of S3.9S on hand. Since that time the receipts from rent of hall to other parties, contributions, donations, and from entertainments, have been 8158.93, and this sum added to the former balance on hand, makes a total of $162.93, as the receipts of the term. The disbursements in that time have been as follews: rent S120, janitor's services $18, gas $21.25, and wood S2.50, making $161.75, and leaving $1.18 in the treasury. Not a very large sum, it is true, bnt still when it is considered that the meetings are free, that the club Ls entirely out ot debt, ana tliat the only use for finances is simply to meet tho expenses, it is certainly a good showing wD-f' 9 2J.
