The period of gum boots has not yet left us. . The new list of questions for our school competition is published this morning. Mrs. M. C. Wire addressed a large audience at the M.

Ross, of Westport Is at the Astor House with a broken leg, sus tained through injuries received by falling thruugh a sidewalk at that town on Sunday. The store of William Olsen, owner of the smuggling steamer Louis Olsen, was closed down on Saturday by his creditors. Olsen Is In San Francisco awaiting trial for smuggling. The fire bell rang out on Sunday night for a blaze in the attic of the residence occupied by James McCarty, below Foster's Exchange. The depart ment got out quickly and soon had the fire under control. The loss is es timated at only about $70. The entertainment given by the la dles' societies of the Norwegian Evan gelical Lutheran church on Saturday night was a success In every- way. There was a very large attendance, and the program was carried out in a most excellent manner. A correspondent says that the "re pairs" lately ordered by the city coun cil to the now famous corduroy road near Krosel's consisted of hewing off a basket of chips. A petition Is now In circulation asking the council to remove the corduroy or cover it with sand rock. There will be preaching tonight at the Methodist church at 7:30, and the meetings will be continued each even ing this week with the exception of Saturday. Rev. J. H. Wood, the Evan gelist is expected on Saturday to as sist at the services which will be held after that date.

Who can answer the questions pro pounded by Herman Wise in his ads? Several school students mailed their answers to the question competition from Alderbrook and Sklpanon on Sat urday. Of course these arrived too late to enter. In future will the writers please post their communicaitions earlier, or have them delivered by hand at this office. .The Contests close sharp at noon every Saturday, and af ter that hour no repUea'are considered. Do not be deceived with cheap pictures, but get your work done at Crow's gallery and, you will not regret It. Miss Austa Llndsetln, of North Da kota, writes to The Astorian as fol lows: "If you can give me any infor mation concerning the whereabouts of Miss Josie Schistad. I will be greatly obliged. When we heard from her last she was in Astoria. That Is about two years ago. She was then staying with her brother, Mr. Peter Schistad, and since then we have lost all trace of her." - '. vn 1 . nno XT ft ColumDia xenuer uuiuimiij Willi give a bal April 8th, at Columbia tannery. All Invited. A most valuable contribution to tne World's Fair from this state has been made by Professor H. S. Lyman. It is a twelve thousand word essay en titled "A Sketch of Oregon History," and is written in a masterly and ex cellent manner. Mr. Lyman's quali fications for the authorship of such a pamphlet need not be spoken of to the people of this city. He is perfectly fa miliar -with the subject, and' knows ,vrv inch of Oregon and everything connected with her rise from insig nificance to wealth and power. E W.

He found him lying on the bed stupifled with the laudanum bottle by his side. ur. wes was at once called In, and administered emetics and hypodermic injections, till he brought the sufferer partially to his senses. He was then transferred to the city Jail in a very low state, and during the greater part of the night he was compelled to take violent exercise to JEFF'S, Tie Only Restaurant. work the poison out of his system. At 2 o'clock this" 'morning he was out of danger. Soon after going to Tetro's house, Henderson told him the address of some friends in the East, saying that something might happen to htm. Ryan & Co. 537, Third street, have Just received a full line of 1803 patterns In wall paper, and comprising all the latest designs and shades, at the low est prices. Call and see them. The board of pilot commissioners held their first meeting 'yesterday. John Fox' was elected president and a. C Fulton1 secretary. The pilot schooner was ordered In from the bar and when she arrives an Investigation will be made. ' It was decided to hold the commissioners' meetings at the of fice of Robb & Parker. D. J. McVicar'g license as a bar pilot was renewed. Secretary Robb was Instructed to serve notice on Pilots L. S. Staples, H. A. Mathews, T. F. Nell and Cy Harrlman, as follows: Resolved, That the president of the board, on the behalf of the board, hav ing' filed complaint against the above named pilots for failure to obey and perform the orders of the board Is sued on March 2d, 1893, that notice be immediately served on the above men tioned pilots by the secretary of the board requiring them to appear and an swer said complaint within two days from date of service of notice of com plaint. . , The meeting then adjourned till 1 o'clock this afternoon, when a secre tary will be appointed. Mr.s M. McKenzie, corner Main and Third streets, invites the ladles of As toria to call on Wednesday and Thurs day of this week, to her opening of spring and summer millinery. Last night, says the Oregonlan, Eu gene Shelby, manager of Wells, Fargo & Company's express business in this city, and I. Gumbert, a fish dealer, were arrested upon a warrant Bworn out In Justice Wood's court. Tha complaint was made by H. D. McGulre, state flsh and game warden, who charges that the two defendants have violated the game laws. Specifically, Mr. Shel by is charged with accepting, and Mr. Gumbert offering for transportation, fresh salmon. This Is the outcome of the decision of the express company to handle salmon caught In Southern Or egon, where the season is now open, notwithstanding It Is against the law to handle flsh caught in the Columbia river. A hearing will be had before Justice Wood tomorrow, and as there is a desire on all sides to have the law tested, the case will be carried up to the supreme court, The stand taken by Mr. McGulre Is indorsed by the Oregon Sportsmen's Club, who are urging him to push the matter. He has also received an opinion from Attorney-General Chamberlain, which Is in line with his policy. The difference between this opinion and the one ren dered by the attorney-general a year ago, Is on the question of season. The law provided at that time for a "closed season." Now it distinctly says "closed season." Consequently he be lieves that this applies to all parts of the state, and that as there is a closed season in Portland now, no salmon can be handled here. It Is purely a matter of the construction of the law, and the arrests made were in friendly spirit. It has been agreed to rush the matter through as quickly as consistent, s that for once 'and all the question can be decided. The finder will be rewarded by re turning to this office a small opal ring and no questions will be asked. It is the gift of a decseased father to his daughter, and is valued for its assocl tions.

Used in Millions of Home i 40 Years the Standard Chamber of Commerce Meet. Regular meeting, of the. chamber of commerce was held last evening, Mr. WIngate presiding, E. C. Holden sec retary. The following communication from Mr. W. A. Story, of the Portland Chamber of Commerce was read: "Owing to the fact that the appro priation made by the legislature for the exhibition of Oregon produce at the World's Fair was too small to permit the commission to Issue a suit able publication in quantities demand ed for the occasion, a work to be published under the auspices of the Portland Chamber of Commerce was Indorsed by the World's Fair com missioners. This work will be descrip tive of the natural resources, advant ages and general Industries of this state. Each section of the state will be represented in an Impartial man mer, as each section will be asked to support the work in orctauthat a large number of the books mayTJie Issued. The work will be beautifully Illustrat ed, and will contain reading matter calculated to induce desirable immi gration to the State of Oregon. I would ask you to place this matter before your honorable body at your earliest convenience. Kindly inform me of the date of your next meeting." "In reply to yours of the 16th, would say many thanks for giving kind at tention to the matter. Inasmuch as I will not be able to come to Astoria Monday, Mr. W. L. Dudley, a member of the Portland Chamber of Commerce, who has been appointed to work with me, will be in Astoria on Monday even ing, and will ask permission to go be fore your honorable body to more clearly state the intending work for consideration." Mr. W. L. Dudley, also a member of the Portland Chamber of Commerce, who is on the same committee with Mr. Storey, being present by Invitation, ex plained more fully the Intention and object of the Portland Board of Com merce. On motion the matter was re ferred to a special committee consist ing of Messrs. Bowlby, Lewis and Tal lant. The committee of timber experts ap pointed at the last meeting to correct a statement contained In the Puget Sound Lumberman, as to timber in Clatsop county, reported as follows: "Your committee to whom was re ferred the statement published in the Puget Sound Lumberman ljlatlve to the amount of standing timber in Clat sop ccunty, bei to report as follows: We have carefully considered the mat ter and would state that any estimate as to maximum amount of timber standing In the county under existing means of information can be nothing more than conjectured, and entitled to little credit. . Estimates actually made vary ac cording to locality, from 40M. to .200 M. feet per acre. As a minimum average we would not place the amount of merchantable timber In Clatsop county at less than 60 M. feet per acre." The following communications from Senators Dolph and Mitchell were reai : "I am Just in receipt of your favor of the 21st, Inst., enclosing copy of memorial of the chamber of commerce, favoring the annexation of the Hawaii an Islands. "As you are probably aware, Imme diately after the news of the revolu tion was received here I made a speech In the senate favoring annexation. I was taken Blck Immediately after the message transmitting the treaty was sent to the senate, and have not been able to be in the senate since, probably will not be there again during the present session. I understand, how ever, that there Is no -hope of securing consideration of the treaty during the present congress, and I have great fears that It will be killed by demo cratic opposition. I shall do all that I can to secure Its ratification." 1 beg respectfully to acknowledge the receipt of yours of Feb. 21st, for warding me a copy of resolutions re cently adopted by your chamber, con cerning the annexation to the United States of the Hawaiian lsianas; an oi which I shall bring to the attention of the senate, and will give the same my earnest attention. I am personally in favor of annexation on proper terms." Mr. James W. Welch presented the following resolution, which was adopt ed: Resolved.- That this chamber re spectfully suggest to the honorable, the county commissioners, to taKe into se rious consideration the advisability of providing a portable saw mill to be used for the construction of plank roads In this county. . On motion, a committee of three, with President WIngate as chairman, was appointed to ascertain the prob able cost of a portable saw mill, and to procure such other statistics as may be proper to lay before the county com missioners in conferring on the subject The meeting adjourned.
