BOND and ELEVENTH STS. Mips oi application. New Astoria... located at the terminus of the Astoria anl Columbia River Railroad, at the mouth of the Columbia River. It fronts on the deep water of the Columbia 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 a high ridge behind it. Its streets and avenues are wide, and, in fact, it is laid out on modern plans. Extensive street improvements are now un der way. The New Astoria Company .COMMERCIAL ST. Something New...

A well known fisherman yesterday, when asked by a gyntleman why he was not out on the river, replied that he did not dare engage again In gill netting on this river. "I am a marked man. I wa. on the patrol committee of the Union, as were fifty others, and It would be dangerous for me to be found out alone by a certain element of the fishermen." The bike erase seems to have travell ed far, for you will find, so It Is said, on the Matterhorn. "Notice! This hill Is dangerous for bicycles." It would be difficult to pedal up the mountain, about as difficult. Indeed, as to pedal up the side of a house, but coustlng down would be easy enough. A tum bleah. If there was a tumble you'd never see rider or wheel again until the millennial morning. Mr. Watson Binder Is now organis ing the Press baseball nine, the object of which Is to give the Examiners practice. Permanent organlxatlon has not as yet been effected, but will be shortly. The following comprise the team: Harry Lemmon, J. J. Lowe, C. Tappln, Watson Binder, C. Maskrey, C. Holtxman, Smith. M. Hardesty, J. Miracle, Burkett. The positions of the players have not been announced. The team Is considered a strong one, and will make an excellent game with the Examiners. The latter are practic ing dally and their team work Is splen did. They will have something to say about who represents Oregon. A gentleman yesterday, who lives on the Fifteenth street hill, said that since some little attempt had been made to improve the surroundings of the old reservoir on Irving avenue, the work should be carried a little further. "What Is the matter with making a park for the benefit of that portion of the city? At little expense a fountain could be placed In the center of the basin similar to the one in the big res ervoir, benches could be provided for 'Visitors, and grass and shrubbery grown which would beautify the grounds. This spot Is the center of a large residence district, and a bit of green, with water, with the simplest accommodations for strollers, would prove an Inestimable boon to those who like a Sunday airing, but are not equal to long rambles." The style now throughout the east, and which is also quite prevalent In the better districts of Portland, is to do away with the unsightly wooden fences surrounding residence property. A low stone coping marks the sidewalk line of lots, while the division line of differ ent properties Is either unmarked or upon It Is grown a row of flowers or low hedge. Blocks of ground so ar ranged, make a most beautiful appear ance and are a great pleasure to all passers by. Besides, such an arrange ment makes one vast park out of the city. In speaking of the matter a pop ular merchant said: "While travelling through the East, one notices this f"a ture of the cities particularly. Buffalo, N. T., Cleveland, Ohio, Philadelphia and Fittsbun?, Pa., are notable exam ples, but as one comes west these beau ties of art become less frequent You see some portions of Omaha, Denver, Salt Lake, Spokane, built after this plan, and Portland has mado good progress In that direction. Astorlans, In view of what the city Is soon to be come, might well copy these examples. A beautiful city will attract people many times where business advantage will not." BICYCLE ACADEMY.

The Yale oarsmen spent th morning In palr-oared work on the upper part of the river .ml near the American head quarters. Many people who wanted to see the New Haven men were disap pointed, as the crew I. kept hard at work throughout the day and have no time to spend III gossip at present. A representative of the Associated Press had a talk with Bob Cook, the Yale coach, who said: "The crew I steadily Improving and I think the pair-oar work we hav. been doing has had a great deal to do with this change for the better. While pulling pair onrs the men c.n better put In practice what they are told to do. All the men from Yale are In good condition and I am working them Just enough to give them a healthful tired feeling which has a highly beneficial effect upon ath letes who arv preparing for a contest." The Yale coach Is determined to make the crew get a harder and quick er catch UM.n the water. Both Mr. Cook and Captain Trcadway said that the new college Is the best one of the river. They rank first. Leander second and Trinity Hall third, but th friends of the Americans are becoming more and more confident every day that the Yale boat will head the procession when the race for the grand challenge cup tukes place. English critics Join In calling atten tion to the Improvement made by the Yale men. and If local feeling has any thing lo do with It. Yale should win. The Americans are great favorite with the rural population here, and as the Yale men walk along the road they are gr -ted with hearty crlr. of "You'll in, sir." Even little urchins who flock uliut the boat house, and trudge or run along the dusty roads after the Americans. Join In prophecylng victory for the Americans, w hich Is Very com forting to the Yale men. COXliltATl'LATIOXtf C 'XTIXt'K. j Canton, Ohio. June 23. Among the j letters In Governor McKlnley'. mall to-j day was an autograph letter trom Senator u'uuy, who .aid he did not try to push his congratulations Into the first great flow that rame, but contin ued: "I congratulate you on the splen did vote of confidence you received In the convention, which represent. abo lutely the best thought of tho Republi can party of the nation." While the question of the location of national headquarter, has been under discussion and Cleveland has made a strong effort to secure them, the Im pression docs not exist here that the cust itn of years psst will be changed, and It Is believed that the Republican national campaign will be directed by Chairman Ilnnna from New York.
