Some Notable Displays Made by Local
Merchants A Glance Into
The Stores.
Christmas is coming little; children,
old women, oungVomen, young men,
and everybody is looking forward to
it Christmas will be here on next
Thursday, and between midnight and
daj light of Thursday, Santa Claus
will fall down many cliimneys and
climb out again leaving presents for
little folks and big folks. It has been
said that the present will bo a dull
Christmas in Astoria. This is a mis
take Yesterday The AsTOKiAx's man
about town, took a walk about the
city, and what ho saw verifies the
statement that the coming Christmas
will be a merry one in Astoria.
Starting from the corner of Third
and Genevieve streets, the seeker after
Christmas ideas drifted into Griffin fc
Reed's place. Falling over a lot of
handsome Christmas cards the re
porter took a tack and fell into a
veritable Alladins palace of toys etc.
There were doll babies of all classes,
sizes and classes of servitude. Then
came imitations, in life like character,
if all the auimals that came from the
ark, including cats, dogs, elephants,
bulls, bears, birds, etc. Baby car
riages and chairs also filled consider
able space and when the visitor said
he wanted a present for an elderly per
son, he was ushered into another de
partment of the emporium. There
were seen handsome statuettes, plain
and fancy toilet sets, special nnmbers
of all the pictorial papers, and many
articles that would make handsome
Christmas presents too numerous to
mention.
Leaving Griffin and Reed's the re
porter turned the corner, and next
door to the old Fisher restaurant he
found what might bo termed an em
porium of sweetness. In tho windows,
and in the show cases, and on the
shelves was displayed one of the hand
somest collections of confections that
has been seen in this city for many
ye us. Overhead tho sign read
"Mikado," and inside the genial Nate
Bergman was found dealing out can
dies of rare quality. They were put
up in bon bon boxe3 of rich design,
and many a young lady will eat the
candy with relish and preserve the
box as a souvenir.
Turning another corner the reporter
stumbled over a trunk oh the side
walk, and looking up found himself in
front of tho famous Herman Wise's
place. Inside the windows, which
were handsomely dressed with wear
ing apparel, neckties and gentsf urnish-
msr coods etc, wero to be seen signs pi,:i ctnVp: n-innnror nf P R fifnirpj
statiug that the person buying S10 1 c, Cn. is on deek at the old stand.
rangements lor the receipt of a choice
lot of Christmas beef, pork, game, etc,
have been made, and a good treat is
in store for the firm's customers.
"Speaking about pictures," said an
old lady, "I had my daughter's pict
ure taken at Wheeler's gallery last
month and sent it home to her father.
He said it looked so lifelike and natural
that he just hngged and kissed it."
Mr. Wheeler of whom the-ladv speaks
in such high terms, is located at 120
Olney street near Third and is too
well known to need special recom
mendation. One of the prettiest windows on
Third street has been decorated by
Cooley Bros, of tho Columbia bakery,
and the store is also handsomely
dressed. Long strings of cornucopias
filled with sweets of all characters
and descriptions crowd the place,
while the handsome plate glass show
cases are loaded with raro confections.
Handsome bon bon boxes in all sorts
of styles and shapes are ready to be
filled and a messenger boy is in wait
ing to deliver them to any iorlion of
the city.
G. W. Smith, the well known watch
maker on Third street near Olney,
has dressed his window and show
case up exquisitely, and tho display of
gold and diamond jewelry he makes
would do credit to a large ciy. While
comparatively speaking a new comer
here, Mr. Smith is taking a front rank
and his prices and goods entitle him
to it
Tho little sucking pig and the big
turkey gobbler, together with some of
the finest dressed Americam beef that
Astoria people have seen since the
christening of the town will be found
on Tuesday and Wednesday next at
Christensen & Co., Second and Main
streets. Christensen & Co. do nothing
by halves, and when it is announced
that a Christmas display will be made
at their shop it is sufficient to guaran
tee that the exhibit will be as stated.
A. Y. Allen has one of the nicest
displays of groceries and Christmas
"fixings," as the man from Kansas
would say, that is shown up on the
street anywhere. All the mince meats,
together with Christmas confections
and other necessary adjuncts are
there and in addition to these a big
line ot poultry will be on hand.
The name of S. B. Crow is notorious,
and it needs but be added that he is
the celebrated photographer of As
toria. His placo of business is on
Third street, near the Central hotel,
and his work is of such excellence of
character that once seen it attracts
persons to it Life-like and attractive
are Mr. Crow's photographs, and if
you don't believe go and see him and
send a photograph back to your dear
old mother.
A young couple were heard on the
street yesterday discussing the possi
bilities of marriage They are en
gaged, and are to be married next
Christmas eve. The question was the
purchase of furniture, and it was with
that object that they went out to
gether. "Let's go here, let's go there,"
was the principal song of each. Fin
ally the two drifted into Charles Heil
born's place on Second street. There
they found everything in the way of
furniture and house-furnishing goods,
and at prices so reasonable that they
ordered a complete outfit, and now
will be married on Chistmas eve.

of all lines or travel on the northwest

of the officers in every county in
Oregon, Washington, Idaho and Mon
tana. A paper in Pittsburg, Pennsylvaia,
in rofcring to Mr. Reed, of this city,
who was recently there, says: "Mr.
Reed is an old resident of the first

Ono of tho prominent merchants of
this city keeps his books and papers
in his "safe but no money. On the
front of the safe hangs a cird on
which is inscribed "This safe is not

open, as he says he does not want the
burglars to spoil his safe by blowing
it open with powder, when they can

thing he wants. There is collected
everything in tho shape of wearing
apparel, from a pair of gum boots up
to a mackintosh, and when it comes
to neckties, gloves, handkerchiefs,
dress suits and plain, ordinary, every
day goods, there is no store in the
city that can excel tho stock of Dan

the many articles in the way of tools
and implements of various lands which
are used around the house or farm,
can be found at M. C. Crosby's exten

everything in the line and many arti

An honest man is said to bo tho
noblest work of God, and it is equally
true that a well-dressed man is a beau
tiful sight and is generally the work
of an artistic tailor. Among the tail

and what he don't know about fitting
a man to perfection is not worth

The Christmas display made by
Thompson & Ross, at their store on
Second street near Olney, will be ex
celled by none. On one side will be a
show of fine groceries, teas, fruits, etc.,
and on the other a Christmas exhibi
tion of dressed beef. It will bo done
up in true English fashion, and a visit
to their store Wednesday will show
that Americans as well as British can
make a meat show. In addition to
ments thero will be a splendid display
of turkeys and game of all sorts.
Finlayson, the tailor has not been
long in Astoria but he has been here
long enough to convince most of the
residents that ho brought with him
the finest line of imported cloths that
was ever brought to this city.

It has been an adage for a long time
in Astoria that if you want a good
cigar, go to Charley OJseu's. Every
body knows that Charley's place i3 on
Third street near Olney, and every
body knows that the reading room in
the rear of tho store is supplied with
the latest periodicals. In addition to
tho choicest brands of cigars, Mr.
Olsen has this year laid in a fine liuo
ot meerschaum goods, including pipes,
cigar and cigarette holders. Besides
he has a large assortment of fancy
goods, such as match safes etc
The advent of tho safe blowers that
robbed Parker & Hansen's store here
a few days ago it seems has stimulated
all the local Dick Turpins and others
to get in and do business. Following
the safe robbery, tho cash boxes in
two street cars were rifled and now
comes Vincent Zarich, a young man
living in TJppertown, who yesterday
complained to the police that he had
been "stood up" on the roadway Fri
day night and robbed of 860 in
money.
Mr. Zarich's story is that as he was
winding bis way homeward about
midnight Friday, he overtook a couple
of men near the Clatsop mill. They,
according to Zarich's story, appeared
to be very drunk, and were staggering
from ono side of the road to the other.
One was a tall man and the other
short. As Zarich passed them the tall
man put the garrote on him and
tho short man presented a revolver to
his head. Then Zarich noticed that
both the footpads were masked and
were not intoxicated in the least As
the tall man held him the smaller
went through his pockets and "lifted"
three 20 gold pieces. The victim
had on his person a handsome gold
watch and chain and a diamond ring,
but the highwaymen didn't molest
these, satisfying themselves with tak
ing the money.
Mr. Zarich can give no accurate
description of the footpads, or in fact
one such as will give the police tho
slightest clue Some uncharitable
citizens intimate that Mr. Zarich is
working in the interest of more street
lights for Upper Astoria. Be this as
it may, the gentleman maintains that
he saw a revolver and is just 60
poorer than when ho started home

Across the street from Carnahan's
an elegant display in two large win
dows greet the eye of the passer by.
Tho display is made by Strauss & Co.
of the New York Novelty store, and
this is sufficient to insure its great
ness. On Third street one of the most at
tractive windows is that of C. H.
Cooper, who occupies the entire
lower floor of the Pythian Castle On
one side is displayed one of the finest
lines of gent s f uraishing goods, includ
ing boots, shoes, umbrellas, overcoats,
neckties, etc, in tho city. On the
other side is a window draped with
fans and finery that gladdens the
heart and eyes of all the ladies that
pass by and they all stop and look.
Mr. Cooper's window draper
is to be congratulated, but the
outside show does not give an
inkling of what is to be seen within.
