It fronts on the deep water of the Columbia River Harbor, and beinj 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 fmt 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 a high ridge behind it. Its streets and avenues are wide, and, in fact, it is laid out on modern plans.

Kinney's cannery Is a busy place Just now. It Is difficult to say from its appearance whether It Is a packing house or a can factory. The frame work for the first story of the Flavel Hotel Is now up, and the contractors expect to put the shingles on the roof next week. A raft of three hundred plies for the Flavel railroad dock Is expected to ar rive today. The scarcity of plies has somewhat delayed this work. The happiest man in town yesterday was Mr. Drennan, when he heard of McKiriley's nomination and the strong gold platform that was adopted. The three pile drivers are being worked to their full capacity sixteen hours a day. Before people know It there will be a railroad In town. The railroad engineers are busily en gaged In clearing the ground south of of Alder Creek, and Jut west of Fla vel for the railroad machine shops.. Mr. J. H. Spadone, who was the suc cessful bidder for the largest portion of the new hose purchased by the city, left last evening for his home In Port land. The big pile driver Is now at work at the foot of Ninth street, and soon the right of way for the railroad will be In good shape for laying ties and rails. "frV It . II J II., CO. AfcntS. Astoria. RRENTO N Owing to an unexpected disagree ment with the committee, Mr. Releher finds himself unable to take part In the wiicert this evening as heretofore an nounced. Oftlcers of the visiting militia werw yesterday driven In a carriage about the city to view the Improvements going on herv, and to take observations for their own use. The I. It. and N. Company Is erect ing a new warehouse on the dock to replace the old one which happened to be in the track of the railroad and met with a fatal accident. Wakefield Jacobsen's large water driver was moved east to Ninth street about 4 o'clock last evening and com mence driving piles, working west. Three bents were driven before dark. A boy. a horse, and a basket of gro ceries, became frightened In front if Ross, Htggtna A Co.'s store yesten!ay, or rather, the horse did. and the boy very nearly found a seat on the ground.

John Talt The medals for the successful plr tiripants In the recent bicycle races given under the auspices of the As toria Athletic club, will be presented this evening at the concert given by Miss Kelly. McKlnley's nomination seemed to meet with favor on all sides as soon as the news became known yesterday. Large crowds stood In front of the As torlan bulletin boartts all day and late In the evening. Charles McDonald and Mr. Prael, white riding their wheels yesterday, ran into each other, w hich resulted In Mr. McDonald receiving a severe cut. Dr. Jansen took the necessary stitches In the wound. The filling made on Grand avenue at the back of the McClue school grounds, was thrown onto the yard by the giving way of the bulkhead, which made a large amount of extra work for the contractors. E'ery canning company In the city, with the exception of the Scandinavian has one or more plants In operation, and it was understood last night that the Scandinavian people would com mence work today. It Is requested that all those holding tickets to st.ll for the firemen's concert tonight will make report of same by o'clock this evening to the foremen of the different companies, from whom the tickets were received. Among the country visitors yester day were John Leahy and wife, James Leahy and son, Olney; Allen Olmstead, Blind Slough; L. Vinson, Skamokawa; J. C. Adams, Clatsop; Max Lange, Deep Klver, and Harry Brandt, Lewis and Clarke. Recorder Gunderson received the following deeds for record yesterday! Charles E. Young to Edward McCoy, five acres, 1625; Lury C. Young to Chas. E. Young, twenty acres, $1; Rufus Mal lury to T. Olsen, trustee, Block 6. Upper Astoria, 110,000. It was reported yesterday evening that a detachment of militia arrested two or three men at one of the Union town canneries, who were forcibly pre venting a fisherman from putting his net into the boat. The disturbers, It Is said, are now in the county Jail. The concert to be given this evening by Miss Eugenie Kelly, In aid of the firemen's tournament, promises to be one of the most enjoyable musical af- fairs of the season. A large number of tickets have already been sold. The program, published yesterday, speaks lor Itself. A Bmall child was nearly run over by a team In front of the old Union house last evening. By great presence of mind the teamster stopped the horses Just before the hind wheels of the wagon pased over the child's body. A by-stander pulled the little one out of danger. J. F. Wyman, J. A.

It was reported that a party of seventy-five or one hundred fishermen endeavored to run out on the dock as the boat ap proached, but were withheld by the de tail of mllllla on guard. It was stated yesterday that early In the morning a couple of fishermen, who were delivering fish at one of the canneries, were Inttnilduted and threatened by a crowd of strikers. La ter In the day the matter was said to have grown out of trouble experienced by one of Kinney's men when return ing from fishing. The mimes of the dggressurs wer taken by the watch man, and complaint was made, but as no damage was done, the authorities took no action In the matter. A gentleman who came down from Portland yesterday reported that the up-rlvrr canneries were literally bnxk ed Kith salmon, and that a large sur plus Is being shipped to Astoria every day. It was reported that Kinney re ceived :1XKI fish yesterday, and that he shipped the first car of the season east. It is thought that whether an dwlulle understanding Is arrived at or not Kllh the men. there will at least be enough fishing here to put a lare umount of money In circulation this fall. Yesterday morning word was con veyed to the authorities that a nel had been stolen from one of the loucr canneries. A boat was seen sailing down the river with the net on board. which Sheriff Hare pursued, over taking It near Tansy Point, when tin property was recovered, and the occu pants of the boat placed under arrest and taken to the county Jail. The men claimed that there must be some mis und-rstan ling, as they were requested to remove their property and had ac cordingly done so with the Intention of fishing. As there did not appear to be sufficient evidence to hold the men they were released, the net being re tained in possession of the cannery. The parlor meeting given by the la dles of the W C. T. U. at the residence of Mrs. Holmes In L'ppertown yester day, proved to be a grand success. About twenty-five ladles were present. The meeting was opened with devo tional exercises conducted by the evan gelistic superintendent, Mrs. Bollinger. A question box proved to be a source of much amusement, as well as enlight enment on a number of points. Tlje state president Mrs. Kinney, was pres ent, and helped greatly to solve numer ous questions of much weight. Music and social chit-chat Interspersed the ex ercises pleasantly. Refreshments were served by the hostess, after which the ladles took their departure, expressing themselves as having spent a most de lightful afternoon. The ladies of the Union desire to return their most hear ty thanks to Mrs. Holmes and her charming daughters for their very hos pitable entertainment In their beautiful home. The right-of-way for the new road from Arch Cape to Nehalem has been practically finished for several days. Grading will probably commence at one, so that the road ran be completed within a few weeks' time. Those who have ever travelled over the narrow trail around the face of Necarnle Mountain, can appreciate the advan tages of a roadway of sufficient width to allow a wagon to go over with per fect safety. That part of the road around the mountain will be a much traveled thoroughfare during the sum mer time, It being In several places over 800 feet directly above the ocean, and commanding a vista unequalled elsewhere on the coast.

Washington has gone wild over the i event rich discoveries male near I Spokane, and that city as well as He- attle, Is booming like old Units. The 'whole matter Is a surprise, even to I some of the old Washington settlers. The. hotels In Spokane are crowded to their full capacity, men are seen In the stieets. drawing maps of their claims in the dust. Mr. Stokes says that the wonderful Increase In trade made by the Seattle mervhants In Alaska Is sure to make a large city out of Seattle In the near future. He thinks that As toria should have a slice of this busi ness, and that If she had been In touch with affairs, steamers would have been put on between the Columbia river and Alaska which would have brought rich returns to the Investors. Mr. Stokes ysterday wrote to the Chamber of Commerce, l'ortland, to see what ar rangements. If any, could be made for the establishment of a line of steamers to run between Portland. Astoria and Alaska. RICYCLK ACAPEMT. Sherman A Thing have opened a riding school next door to Pjp;lfle Eipress onVe. Competent Instructors constantly In at tendance. Cleveland -ind Crescent bi cycles for sals and rent PIANO RECITAL. Tin- plnno recital given last evening by Miss Barron's pupils, proved to be a treat to all who had the good fortune to hear It. Each and every one of the performers did most excellent work. Little Miss Alice Wright won the most hearty applause In her rendition of the "Slunihtr Song." by tiurlltt. Master Toil Carrulhers played Lanyon's "Joy ous Moments" In a way that showed he knew something about music. An nie Hansen's rendition of selection from "Martha." and Master David Morgan's playing of "The Hunter's Horn." won deserved applause. In the second part of the program Miss Ger trude Kearney gave a fine rendition of Leybach's "Fifth Nocturne." and the Misses Lulu and Pearl Estes won en cores upon the beautiful Interpreta tions of "La Camr'anella," by Egghard, and H iler's "Cradle Hong." The gem of the evening was perhaps Mendell sohn's "Rondo Caprlctioso," by Miss May Morgan. Miss Morgan la one of the most promising young musicians of the city, and plays with a feeling and grace of execution seldom equalled by one of her age. Others who took part In the entertainment were Miss Frunklo Estes, Master Earl Fisher, Miss Lllllc Carlson, Miss Grace Stokes, Miss Mary Gramms, Eva Goodman. Space would not permit giving tho program1 In full, and It Is sufficient to say that every number fas good, and showed most careful and painstaking training. CAMP NOTES.

Private Burke, of the engineer corps, yesterday sustained a sprain of his foot when descending one of Astoria's precipitous sidewalks. Private McKlnley, of Company C, has a severe cold, and was permitted to return home last night.

Wonder why It Is? PAINFUL ACCIDENT. One of the laborers driving a wagon engaged In grading the hill, met with a singular and probably fatal acci dent at the summit of 10th street shortly after noon yesterday. The wagon, filled with loose dirt, wan descending a steep grade, and al though the soft ground which held the wheels prevented an Increase of speed, by some mischance the driver lost his balance and was thrown under the loaded wagon, the hind wheel pass ing over his spine.
