Dally Astorian at Handley & Haas' news stand. 150 First street As the big bell of the High school pealed out yesterd?y morning, children came in crowds to report for duty, and, at a little after 9 o'clock, when Princi pal Wright called the roll, he was met with an agreeable surprise, the attend ance exceeding all expectations. The number present yesterday was 357 against 319 at the beginning of last year's term. . Several people believed that for many reasons there would be a falling off in the number, and the teachers are all delighted to think that things have turned out differently. The course of primary Instruction has 159 scholars this term, grammar, 11 (J; and High School, 42, against last term's totals of primary Instruction, 1C3; gram mar, 134. and high school, 22. When the High School students yesterday were given thslr choice of the business, English, and Latin courses, the great majority of them chose the latter, which runs for three years.

The South Coast had Just cast oft from Hustler's dock when tha ebb tide which was running very strong at the time car ried her along to where the Thermopy lae was lying before she could recover headway. She struck the vessel athwartshlps, the Thermopylae's boom knocking away her smokestack, while her side smashed off a part of the Thermopylae's figurehead and broke away several stays. The starboard an chor of the sailing vessel pierced the steamer's side, smashing part of the deckhouse into splinters and bedding Itself inside the frame. It was found impossible to separate the boats until low water three hours afterward when men from Dalgety's workshop repaired the damage to the South Coast and sent her on her trip to San Francisco, very little the worse for the accident. The damage to the Thermopylae amounted to about $220, the most lam entable part of the occurrence being the destruction of her Bhapely and ar tistic figurehead.

Bushong began the year on Sunday as pastor of the M. E. church under very favorable auspices as regarded the congregation gathered to hear him, for in spite of the stormy weather, the church was crowded both morning; and evening with a very in telligent and highly appreciative audi ence of nearly four hundred people. The theme of the morning's discourse was "The many things which seek to get In between a Christian and Christ." The" sermon was very Interesting and helpful. Dr. Bushong has a fine pres ence In the pulpit,' and his utterance showed much study, command of choice language, and a good deal of per se nal magnetism that brought him in touch with every listener. The even ing thsmo was "The Spirit Power in Church Work," and this was even more interesting) than the morning sermon. A very humorous and detailed list of reasons as to why he enme to Astoria, what he had not com for and what he did romo for, what ho expected of his people, and what they might expect of him, closed his evening discourse, which aroused In every person present, a desire to hear him again. The choir rendered, both morning and evening, nonip very delightful music. Astoria may well congratulate herself on hav ing added to her residents a preacher of such marked ability and talent.
