It fronts on the deep water of the Columtia River Harbor, and being perfectly protected from wind and seas, affords the very best docks for ships on this bay: therefore. It is the exact spot for the seaport of the great Northwest. These facts were recognized by the Astoria & Columbia River Railroad Co. when New Astoria Was Selected as the Starting Point for their Railroad and the Location for the Terminals. ' New Astoria Is platted upon a plane high enough for perfect drainage, and well protected by & high ridge behind it. Its streets and avenues are wide, and. in fact, it is laid out on modern plans.

One of the daintiest gowns seen re cently was a cheap blue and white challle economically trimmed with embroidery and black satin ribbon. The hose team last evening made a fine drill run from Eleventh to Tenth street on Duane, and made one of the quickest hydrant couplings on record. The emphatic song of the hammer Is to be heard In the vicinity of the Welch block, wVre busy workmen are faat effacing the signs of the recent fire. All hands at Foard & Stokes yester day wf.re very busy eettlng out tho supplies for the Big Bonanza, which will probably arrive today and go to sea immediately.

When Astoria does get weather It Is the finest on earth, and that which Is now here seems to have come to stay, much fc the Joy of even web-footers, who were beginning to get a little tired of an over abundance of rain. Recorder Gunderson yesterday re ceived two deeds for record, one, J. H. Palmer to A. McPharlan, conveying Lot i. Block 20. for 1150; and the other N. E.

At the Instance of Califf Jones (col ored) Miss Snodgrass was arrested yes terday on a charge of using abusive language. Defendant did not appear at the trial and forfeited fit) bail. It goes without saying that she was a resident of the Bowery. St. Louis had her atmospheric cy :lone, and now Astoria's water front I Is being laid low by the railroad storm, buildings in the railroad's path are bo- ing mowed down as grass, and the music of the pile driver sends cheer to the heart of every devout Astorian. Ambitious pedestrians desirous of es tablishing a record are Invited to take the overland route to Warrenton. The railroad bridge is ready for footmen, one gentleman having come over yes terday by that route. Go early In or der to perform the feat before your neighbor can boast.

Sunday morning u party left on the launch Vigilant for Bear Creek, where the day was spent among the flowers and tree. Music lent charm to the occasion, and a line repast was an additional factor In the pleasure. The progress on the railroad was noted, and at a point neur John Day's river the entire party landed and walked through the new tunnel. Late in the evening the return home was made and a score of sunburned countenances bespoke the Jolly good time which was enjoyed. The session of the rtrcaon Pioneer ; Association convmes at Portland to-j morrow, and a number of delegates j from Astoria will attend. Probably j the oldest representative from Clatsop t Is Mr. A. C. Wirt, S2 years of ag". who ! came here In Mi. when there was but one man, William Overton, living In j Portland, and Astoria was in a consld-, erably more primitive state than at j present. Mr. Wirt was associated with such pioneers as Messrs. John Hnbsnn McClure and Hhlvely. lie bids fair to spend many more years among us. Mr. James Nell, a well known busi ness man of Salem, was In the city yesterday, and established his title to the black mare which Mr, Fred 1 in enweber thought he had purchased from parties at Stella. He and Mr. Lelnenwuber got together In the after noon and the result was another trade, which left the fine animal In Mr. Leln enweber's possession. The latter gen tleman Is not out much on the trans action, as his time for payment to the other parties had not yet arrived when he received notice that the animal had been stolen. There are several other parties, however, through whose handa th animal passed, who will not get off so lucxy. The Odd Fellows and Rt-bekah lodges of Astoria met In the lodge room Sun day afternoon to render tribute to the memory of their deceased brothers and sisters. The Noble Grand opened the meeting, announcing the sincere mo tive which prompted Its assembling, and Rev. T. A. Hyland Invoked divine comfort In an Impressive prayer. Bro. J. J. Walter offered words of consola tion for the bereaved, and referred In words of highest praise to the charac ter and alms of the order. With most profound and beautiful philosophy he eloquently alluded to the presence of death In the midst of life, and the re ward which crowns the effort of a life spent In virtue and loyalty to our fel low man.
