A quick run was made across Youngs Hay to Hens' landing, where were found walling several commodious wagons with tine teams attached ready to convey the visitors over the new road. At 10.43, shortly after passing the tine farms of W. K. lvment. J. V. Keith and Mr. Ingalls. the upper school house was reached and her a halt made for rest and refreshment. Kor the latter ample provision had been made, both as to quantity and quality, by the w ives and daughters of the Set tlers w ho were present to preside over the bountifully laden tables. After hav ing amply satisfied the Inner man. the guests were Invited Into the school house for the purpose of exchanging views In regard to the new road and what was now required In order that It might have unbroken connection with Astoria; and thus the farmer would be nble lo bring his produce In his own conveyance to market. Mr. Walt Ingalls presided at the meeting, snd In well chosen words ex plained the object the settler had In view in Inviting the county and city I officials and tax-paying elf liens of As turla to come over and view the road they had laid out and virtually com pleted as rar as iund travel was con eerned.

The work was most artistic and many of the pieces hail the ap pearance of tine lace work. The needle work Is most remarkable from the fuct that Mi's. G ruber Is past 70 yeurs of age. After the torchlight parade Thursday evening, some of the participants blew nut their lights and handed them over to a number of small boys stand ing about, under the Impression that the boys were going to put the torches away. It se-ms that the boys got the Idea that they were being presented with the torches, and carried them home. In this way a large numlier of the torches are missing, and the pa rents of these boys will confer a favor upon the central committee by s-elng to It that the torches are returned at once. Mr. G. O. Moen returned yesterday from an extended sojourn in Norway, having been absent frotn Astoria for about five months. Mr. Moon's trip was of a business nature and though con stantly employed, he availed himself of many opportunities to thoroughly see the country of his youth, an ab sence of twenty. six years having ma terlally changed the appearance of things. Iiurlng the stay In Norway a Journey was made to Sweden, which opened a new avenue of exploration "Over In England," Mr. Moen said "the lirltaln Is smiling at the prospect of having the upper hand 'when Hry an Is elected;' but from observations made on this side of the water It would seern that he has reckoned without his host." As Is natural Mr. Moen Is glad to be at home again and was busy yes terrjay in renewing his acquaintance with Astoria generally. TO I I ItK A .'OI.I IN OMC fMf, Take laxative Hromo Quinine Tablets.

Mr. Ingalls spoke of his determination years ago that the settlers In that fer tile section of the county should have a good road all the way to the county at ami a market He had never lost sight of It. And. now, notwithstand ing all the hindrance and discourage ments, they had. with very little aid from the county, less than $r.iu. built a good road to tide water all ready for summer travel, and the paramount question now is will the county com plete the connection, either by bridge or ferry. For himself, he favored a bridge as the moat permanent and the most economical In the end. The gen tleman said he would like to get an expression of opinion from others pres ent and called upon the Hon. !' J. Taylor, who respondiM. Mr. Taylor said he had heard much about this road, but had never Imcii over It before and was very much pleased that he had now done so. lie was both gratltlrd and surprised to find such an amount of work had been nc- !'-'I'llh.M and so well done. No coun- try can prosper without gixd roads. Astoria has suffered loss for the want of them, and notwithstanding lh rail road you cannot build up Astoria with tit good roads lo afford easy and di rect communication with your farming settlement. This new road was of mors Importance than might st first appear. From observation and per sonal knowledge of this section he knew that roads could be built on easy grad.w at comparatively little expense, from many other settlements within a radlu:-. of a mile or two which could be connected with this new road No .public money can be better Invested jthan In building good roads and h acknowledged nimseit a convsri to me (opinion that this rd must be carried -,.,M., , , o, ..rflre of On ion to completion He f.iv.. red a bridge .,.,.. ,.,.rL (,e inri f Equal- ; as better and cheaper In the long run than a ferry.

Af- ter becoming Intoxicated she swallowed I a quantity of carbolic acid, and at midnight was at the point of death. Dr. Estes, the attending physician, says that, owing to Miss McElroy's condi tion he could not state whether the dose would prove fatal or not, but seemed to despair of saving her life.
