It fronts on the deep water of the Columbia River Harbor, and tein j 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. I An office hu been opened by the pro- I prletors one door Hit of th. Crosby S3 I hardware .tore.

Whelan. of the L'nlon Meat Company, Portland, returned from the beach yesterday, and said that salt water sports were preferable to hard work at this season of the year. The only trouble with Mr. Whelan was that he could not stay long enough to get thoroughly salted down. About noon yesterday one of the workmen employed In Capt Jacobsen's pile driver gang in the rear of Ross. Hlggins & Co.'s store, fell overboard, striking his chin on a piece nt timber. Several deep cuts were made, but the man, whose name is Freeeburg. went to work again in the afternoon. P. B.

Hare met with a severe ac- i cldent at the corner of Tenth. When Just about to cross the street, and go ing at a very moderate pace, a large yellow dog ran across the path and In some way got mixed up with the bicycle. Mrs. Hare was thrown to the ground, and had one of her feet badly twisted, producing a severe sprain. Dr. A. L.

GOOD OUT OF NAZARETH. Clatsop County's Roads ftllifd to Ad vantage by an Enterprising Farmer. There could be seen wending Its way Into the city the other day what ap peared to be a veritable old-time prai rie schooner. This schooner, however, was somewhat different from those which arrived on the Pacific coast in days gone by. dilapidated und travel stained, and drawn by ox-teams, for It was splc and spun new, painted In bright colors, broad-guage wheels, a wide bed, with high sides, and a white sail-clnth top. The vehicle was drown by a span of handsome horses, and their driver seemed to be a well-to-do man, dressed In a good suit of clothes. An enterprising newspaper man struck with curiosity by the strange sight, accosted the driver and inquired whence he came, and what kind of a carriage he drove. "Look In and see for yourself, young man." An examination of the Interior of the vehicle revealed a neatness in keeping with Its outside appearance. In one end was a long, high box, reaching en tirely across the wagon bed. Near It stood a small deal table, and Just be yond a tin covered chest, which looked something like a sailor's box. In the front of the wagon bed were rolls of shining milk cans. "You see, said the proprietor, that I have here a travelling dairy, with alt the tools necessary for the business. I found that making butter under the or dinary methods and transporting It from my place beyond Gluey to the city, either by boat or team, was an expensive process and a money-losing business. Thinking the matter over one night while driving home in the dark, I concluded to try an experiment, and this Is the result That box you see In "the end of the wagon Is a churn. After leaving home In the early morn ing with my out fit all In good condi tion, the utensils made sweet and clean by steaming, I call at the neighbors' along the way and pck up their fresh milk In these cans. After leaving 01 ney a short way, you strike a piece of road which many people think is very unpleasant to travel over. It Is so con structed that an undulating, swaying motion Is given to the wagon, and un less a person Is a sailor, It has a ten dency to make him seasick. Here I put the milk Into the churn and drive along at a good gait to the Walluski. The natural motion of the wagon does all of the work of hand power, or a Awarded Highest Honors World's Fair, Gold Medal, Midwinter Fair. Da wm Most Perfect Mode. 40 Years the Standard.

Before starting on the trip again, the butter w hich was churned on the way Is placed on one of those deep trays from that chest over there, and set Uon the table. where It Is fastened down by screws! and a waate pipe connected w hich emp ties Into one of the milk cans. After i crossing the Walluski bridge the road Is constructed of what I known a puncheon, and there Is a long stretch of It right to the city's edge, which l ! a bugbear to most eltlsen. and many In. lies are actually afraid to ride over It. Not so with me. however, a I have a peculiarly constructed spring seat, and I know that every Jolt of the wagon I doing what It would lake hnrd work and time to do at home.

A short stop Is made, and It I the work of but a few- moments to press the but ter Into rolls by means of these wooden molds, and pack It In the chest for de livery to the merchants. No time has leen lost at home, and much labor has been saved. Give me the good old fash ioned Clatsop county puncheons and mud holes. I can make money on them, whether the man who raises spud and hay can or not." THE Jl'NTA CLl'B. Merchant "I heard a man the other day. In speaking ot the present gener ation, call It the age of frivolity. What do ynu think of the Idea gentlemen? I have not git en the matter much consid eration, but the name pleased m and my first impression was that the name was appropriate." Laborer "It seems to me the man who used the term Is mistaken. This Is a time of general dissatisfaction and f.iult-nnding. The pessimistic spirit I what prompts a man to view the present generation with disfavor. I'er- haps It has always been o perhap all generation have looked upon their ow n ages with uncharitable criticism." Merchant "Hut Just look at the wu of the world today, and tell me whether this Is not really an age of frivolity an age In which there I a lark of seriousness and a prevalence nf a habit of trifling. Now take for Instance the fads of the day, the bicy cle, football, and baseball erase, the big sleeves, parting th hair In the middle, ladles wearing bloomers, and all that rt of thing; don't you call that frlvolousness?" Laborer "I would hesitate to do so. Bicycling Is not frivolous from neces sity. It Is a mens of exercise snd pleasure. It Is a means of rapid transit. It saves time, labor and money, Ot course It may be carried to extreme sometime, but that Is no more of in .... , i , argument against It than over-lndul- gence Is an argument against eating. As for football, and and baseball, the! are sources of pleasure and physical development principally, and have not the extra advantage of being time and money savers I don't know that the fuds of this age are any more frivolous than those nf other ages. If you will notice the picture of men who lived a hundred year ago or two hundred years ago or In any past time for that matter, you will find that styles of dress, manner of wearing the hair, etc., were greatly different from what they now are. J presume that when the styles that we consider so odd, began to change, the new styles were called fads, and yet few of us would want to return to th manners and cus toms of our Puritan forefathers." Lawyer "But there Is an evidence of frivolity in the prevailing habits of thought. We do not read good sensi ble literature do not study the all Important questions of sociology as our forefathers did. For instance, there Is a tendency to disregard matters of religion, and statesmanship has become subservient to machine politics." Minister "I think you are wrong there, for where we had the blind seal derslgned reserving the right to re of an Ignorant class of creed followers . ject any or all bids. a few years ago, we now have an en lightened, free-thlnklng and independ ent people, who have learned to form their own creeds and settle questions of doubt for themselves. The same Is true In politics and the unsettled con dition of the times Is an evidence of more serious thought by the masses of the people." 1 Teacher "You must remember, too, that history does not shed much light on the frivolity of past generations. Its aim Is to record the great achieve ments and Important conditions, so we are not capable of comparing this gen eration with any other, In this respect. I have an Idea that the next genera tion will look back upon ours as an ideal age, while at the same time they condemn their own as frivolous.
