New Astoria... located at tte terminus of the Astoria and Columtia River Railroad, at the mouth of the Columtia 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 jreat 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 We Carry a Fine Line of Lalies' Cents' : Shoes Children' Complete Stock of Summer t footwear.

In- Visitors from the metropolis and thp Interior of the state report that a great deal of Interest Is being excited over Astoria's coming water carnival. The people are very anxious that they may have an opportunity to view the battleship Oregon, and they are also much interested in the proposed ocean yucht race between the Jessie and the Aggie. The members of the soliciting com mittee reported yesterday afternoon that their labors were almost complet ed, and that they would be able to turn In a full list of subscriptions at an early date. The executive commit tee held it regular session In the af ternoon, and In the morning the press committee held Its second meeting, at which definite plans were arranged for thoroughly and systematically adver tising the carnival and program of events. From the dispatches published In an other column this morning, It will be seen that the battleship Oregon has been put in full commission, and that the Philadelphia has left San Francisco for Port Angeles, which will be made the base of operations In the furthcom ing maneuvers of the Pacific coast squadron. There can be little doubt but that Admiral Beardslee, in whose fleet the Oregon will be placed, will make arrangements to be represented here In August If such a thing is pos sible. Chairman Page, of the commit tee In charge 6f this matter, will decide upon his future and further action in a day or two. It has been suggested that In sailing the race between the Jessie and the Aggie, the course be laid around the Tlllamood lighthouse. It is understood that plans are on foot for holding a "Carnival of Nations" at the opera house every evening during the regat ta.

FOR FURTHER ANNOUNCEMENT K'TOHY IN I'KFKAL How the Astoria r.xamincr Lost the (ante In Portland Cuptuin Clirl l.ovitt, catcher Har ry Twilight and Minagcr Percy It. Ko-' vi, of tlu Astoria Examiner, return ed yealeiday aft.'ltnon on the Tele, phi t:e (win Portland, whit he" the t nm had gone to learn thp national game of baseball. The Astorlan were defeated but In that defeat there was a choice collection of victory. To begin with, the Astorlan were not treated fairly. In that they were pitted against the two strongest teams in the state the victorious Albany Colts, and the Monogram, of Portland, Those two team had played on Sat urday, the Colt winning by a score of i to 10. Kach team protested, et. ting forth that the other rontaln.d men over the age limit. 1n' year. The pro test had not been settled when the AMorta nine wu played. Just before the Astoria-Monogram gome Sunday morning the manager of the former tiled a protest with the um- plre. Mr. Joseph Smith, against the latter nine. While certain In his own mind that the Mongram iwer playing men over age, the Astoria manager hud no evidence to that effect, and file. I the protest because. If any evidence devel oped, the complaint would have been In. A protest, according to th rule luld down by the Examiner, must be ftti-d before the game Is called. A ho'h teams were under protest, the manager of the Astorlnns failed to see the bene fits to be derived from playing and. Just before the game, notified the gentlcmun in charge, Mr. Arbuck. that the Asto rlan would not play. Mr. Arbuck. however, explained the situation, set ting forth that a crowd had collected and asking that It bn pulled off. In order to prevent a "tlxxle," the Asto ria its ptuyed. For the first four Innings the Asto rlan played all around the Motigram. scoring 7 runs to the latter's i. Itut the lower Columbia boy hail been up nearly all night and were In no condi tion to play their game. After the fourth Inning they went to piece and the Mongram won by a wore of 32 to 12. In the afternoon the boy played the Colt three Inning, but made no effort to score. After the third Inning the Monogram took the Astorlan' places and played a hot game. The Colt, however, were too much for the Portland boys and won the game. Just before the Astoria-Albany game the former withdrew Its protest against the Mongram. as complaint would oth erwise have been made against the Colt. The protest affair had become so distasteful to the Astoria manager that he decided to await the outcome of the protest of the other two team against each other, a one protest would be a effective as a doxen. The Astoria boys are firmly convinc ed that nearly all the men In the Al bany and Portland team are over age, but of course have no positive evidence. The Examiners Iwked like Infant by the side of the large players In the oth er nines. However the protests may re sult, the Astorians have the best wishes of all Portland for their gentlemanly conduct. Even the members of the Colts and Monogram praised the Ex amlners' clean ball. Fleming, the Albany pitcher, Is un der protest. The man really looks over 21, and pitches great ball; but he was treated disgracefully during the games with the Astorians and the Mono grams. Ho was hooted and hissed, but conducted himself wonderfully. The meet was not all that could have been desired, but the Astorians acted as the circumstances allowed. Since the return of the local team several parties have gone about the city circulating stories regarding the conduct of the boys In Portland. When the Astorians went on the field, so It goes, several were Intoxicated. The manager and captain, together with the catcher, are accused of selling out to the Monograms and other equally ridic ulous things. The manager says the stories are malicious falsehoods. Mr. Joe Smith, the gentleman who umpired the games, was as fair a could be, and his decisions won for him the hearts of all the players In the various competing teams. ROYAL BaKing Powder.
