The warrant Is subject to the order if the county court and la now In the hands of W, G. Gosslln. A carpenter with the British ship Garnet Hill, now anchored In the har bor, met with a painful accident yes terday morning. It seems that while chopping at a spar, the ax slipped and glancing, struck his right foot, cutting an ugly gas Erectly forward of the ankle. He was itfovght Into the city, and waited on by JJr. , A. Ful ton, who stitched and benrlajvj the wound. . , Ci r. P?"!"", fio r?rn4 i wntly from the Nehalem, reports that there Is some sort of a caterpillar making havoc with the Umber of that section, denuding the trees of every vestige of foliage. The timber has been thus damaged for .nlles east from Cannon beach, the strip being about hree miles wide. This destructive pest does not confine Itself to the timber, either, but takes In the underbrush and products of the farm and garden as well. " ..islon of the naval reserves, was ilghtod off the mouth of the Co lumbia river yesterday. She was tak ing a southerly course, and left in her train a tortuous reach of smoke, that betokened a lively ipeed.

Again this cofumn is constrained to make a few remarks touching tbe al most phenomenal success which trials In the wake of the Improved make-up I and appearance of "he Astorian. In ! other words, the Astorian Is the otie ; and only representative local dally at ,' present holding the field, and with our ' newly arranged and enlarged facilities, it la the purpose of the management to make it still further Astoria's prom inent business and social organ, en hancing its aspect with unique and entertaining features wholly unattain able by any of Its competitors. A woodchopper addressed a circle of acquaintances on Bond street yester day, drifting from the common place In discourse to flowing and impassion ed utterances. The gist of his ovation was that he would leave for Salem this morning, "There Is too much work here," he said. "Labor Is scarce and one man has to do the work of two, and In some cases three. I've got twenty-five dollars saved and I'll go over there and pick hops and make twenty-five more. That will last me until November first. I'll be broke then and come back and make a new stake. ' At a meeting of the chamber of ' commerce, which was held last even : Ing, the correspondence relating to : the recent visit of the congressional j delegation to Astoria was read, and the see question of dwpenlivg the channel In front of the city was discoursed and referred to the committee on eoinmerve and navigation, with Instructions to Investigate and report. The secretary was Instructed to acknowledge the le celpt and extend the thanks of the chamber to the I'nlon Pacific railway company for a aerlea of ma lately donated to the chamber. The chamber since Its renovation. prwn:s a much more Inviting appearance than for merly, and there has been a gratify- i Ing Improvement In the Interval and attendance al the meetings. j A sad aei'l lent occurred yesterday to ! Mrs. Caasldy, of Portland, who Is visit- j Ing at the home of Mr, and Mrs. I. N. ' JeftVrs on th Lewis and Clarke. While ! driving In a buggy to Seaside one of the w heels struck a stump wirh such ! force as to throw her violently to the ! ground. Mrs. Cassldy Ml on her head ' and was rendered unconscious. She i was place.! In the buggy and taken ' back to the residence of Mr. Jcffers, A ' physician was summoned from Astoria I and had not returned at an early hour ' this morning, Is feared that she U fatally injured, J "I had a good company listed for ! Veptf nibtr Sod." said Manager Sellg. of ! the opera bouse, yesterday, "but the; b..ug and Appearance of Walter Main's circus on the same day kills all chances for any theatrical business. I could play against an oratl m by President McKlnley or a Jeffreys Fttssimmons prixe fight, but not against a circus. Bald heads from babies to old men go to see the clown sad the elephant, and you can't stop them. No. I shall cancel that attrac tion and play something good very i6un thereafter," , - j Farmers lnj other 'ho navt .J c.utlon to uae the Lewis and Clark : road, are loud In their denunciations j of Us present miserable condition. In f.i'-t. Its surface Is so rough and Jag ted, and so generously defiled with mud ant slush thut the milkmen who hith erto have traveled It to and from the city, are again using the river boats In preference. There is a general opin ion that the road commissioners, rather than to plow and scrape and wrench treat holes !y removing tree trunks, should leave them Intact, and plank the road In a substantial and Inviting condition. To do so would be to save money. If the opinions of those Inter ested are to be taken as criterlans. About two weeks ago, an Interview with Miss Lampman, the life-reading medium, was published In the Astorian. , The subjects discussed were of a vary ing character, and In one Instance, ref-1 emnce was made to the 'act that the j late Robert G. Ingersoll had already : delivered two lectures In the realms I of the spirit world, and bad expressed a regret that his life had not been pro- ', tracted another year In order that he might have rectified many, erroneous Impressions which his eloquence and ! caustic pen had given currency. Tea- ' terday, William Chance, of this city, j received the last issue of the Progres- i slve Thinker containing two lectures ' referred to by the spirit who waits on 1 Miss Lampman. The medium through ' whom Colonel Ingersoll gave utterance Was Mrs. Cora L. V. Richmond. j The weather of Sunday and Monday was of a quality to sult the most ex-1 acting decrk-r. The sun was obscured , but little by the clouds and streamed ; down In a glorious flood of warmth ' and brightness that filled the streets ' with a happy people and the drive- j ways with conveyances old and new and ranging from the commonest of ' express wagons to the most fashion-' able broughams. The weather In Port-' land was likewise of a delightful char-: acter. The street cars did an Immense ' passenger truffle, while the parks and other out-of-door resorts were crowd ed with the classes who look to the Sabbath as a day for recreation. Could Astoria have had yesterday's weather for the opening day of the regatta. there la little doubt that thousands of people additional to the great crowd which attended, would have availed themselves of the opportunity nd fa vored the city with their presence. , The regular meeting ' of ' the "Push Club was hel.l last night. "There was a fair attendance and President Ham blett presided. A communication was read from W. B. Wells, of the Port land P acidic Monthly regarding the advertising of Astoria.' The proposi tion of Secretary Lyman to secure general information by making a aer ies of trips through the country was favorably received and he was ' In structed to do so. The building of a large halls capable of accommodating 800 or 1000 people was generally dis cussed. A motion was passed that a committee of two, consisting of Messrs. Newell and II. O. VanDusen, be ap pointed to look Into the matter and obtain plans of a suitable bulldthg'. The members favored the location of such a hall between 17th sreet and the Clatsop mill. The erection of a new hotel building was also discussed, but no definite action was taken. Secretary Lyman stated that the creamery was progressing very favorable Mr. Lyman also stated that a creamery would soon be established on Gray's river, the promoter of the enterprise being al ready there to look over the ground. THE MISHAPS OF THE GARNKT HILL. Her Detention on the Willamette Bar Strained the Ship and Resulted In A Chain of Other Misfortunes. The British bark Garnet Hill Is still lying at anchor In the harbor awaiting -..-lr nn ,m n I m mi ..SH AX A HAN'S.. TWO STORES 4- for a grain charter for Europe. Ono of the bright young apprentices who la In training on the ship for an oncer's commission told the, story of the last voyage to a visitor yesterday, , , , "We loft Portland a little over , a year ago, loaded with (umber for China. As soon as we renched the mouth, of the Willamette on our way duwp, w ran aground, and were on the, bar there for 18 days. Finally we got oft and proceeded on our way. We sooa encountered rough weather, and pur deck load of railroad ties .caused ,pi lots of trouble.,, We, were continually losing ties from this deckload, and finally In the China sea.ws ran ifltp a tybpoon and our bulwarks were par tially washed away, seams In, the hull opened, and we, were forced to put into a flrydock for repairs. ., ; "I have of ten " thought that , the straining the ship sustained , at tha mouth of the Willamette while coming ddwn from Portland was the cause of much of our trouble afterward, and I bulleve it Is taking tall chances to bring a loaded ship drawing any depth of water down the river, ,'( , "It has been two years since wo were In a home port, but we expect to make our next voyage to Europe, in which case we will visit England, our na tive land again."
