SEASIDE LODGE NO. Is, 40. U. W.

About $50 Astorians, consisting of
members of the A. o. U. w., their wives
and friends, arrived ON the various night
and day boats yesterday, and employed
themselves during the day in sight-see-
ing at the Mechanics fair, and through
out the city generally. At z O'Clock, un-
der command of Marshal A. w. Wither-
ell, the members of Phoenix Legion No.
Select Knights, and Industry Lodge No.
8, A. o. U. w., both of Portland, as
sembled at G. A. r. hall, their lodge
room, and proceeded to the Esmond
hotel, the Select Knights acting as escort
to Industry lodge.
At the hotel the visitors were met and
conducted to the lodge room, which was
reached at 7:45, and general social inter
course was participated in until O'Clock,
when Master of Ceremonies L. A. Steph-
ems called the assemblage to order and
introduced Master Workman S. Lewis
King of Portland, who delivered the ad-
dress of welcome. This was responded
to on the part of Seaside lodge No. II, of
Astoria, by @. j. Trenchard.
Past Master II. ID. Ramsdell, of Indus
try lodge No. 8, Portland, then gracefully
performed the duty of formally present
ing to the visitors the broom, significant
of the fact that their lodge is now the
banner lodge of Oregon and Washington
jurisdiction, an honor which it has Just
wrested, by virtue of a larger member
ship, from Industry lodge. The trophy
was accepted by Master Workman G. W.
Rucker of the visiting lodge. The broom
is no undesirable possession on its own
account, being finely trimed. The handle
is covered with band of crimson silk
About the shank is wrapped coin silver
of Loft ,nI~
briefly recounts the occasion of its pre-
sentation, the donors and recipients
names and the date and significance of
its gift. About the straw are bound
three broad bands of crimson plush upon
which, in silver threads, are traced the
emblems of a shield and an anchor and
the words "Charity, Hope and Protec-
tlon." The Astorians were grestly
pleased with the trophy, through they
made free to express fear that their
triumph would be short lived.
Mr.. Fuckers speech of acceptance was
followed by an address from Grand Mas
ter of the jurisdiction E. l.. Smith, who
oounseled the renewal and extension of
fraternal ties, and the more assiduous
development of the moral, social and in
tellectual features of the lodge. Prof. G.
nj. Schuck then rendered an organ
voluntary, after which Mr.. T. A. Stephens,
the presiding officer. requested the guests
to sample the refreshments which had
been provided. The invitation was ac-
cepted, and for an hour or more the gay
company enjoyed the fruit, ice cream,
cigars, ETC., which the hosts of the even
ing had provided. The fair women and
brave men over whom the lamps shone
bright, numbered many of the best resi-
dents of our city, and the hall was
crowded just to the sociability point.
Part of the Astorians returned on last
nights boat; the remainder will go to-
day or tomorrow rs their duty or inclin-
alton points.-Oregonidn, 15

ardly shooting affair which occurred a
few miles from this place Friday night,
i'll which young Fletcher, to carry his
bloodthirsty passion into effect, fired two
shots ut John Edwards into ballroom

resulted fatally. The first shot entered
the ceiling, the pistol being knocked up
by some one, and the second missed its
mark, entering the body of an inOifen-
sive young man named Sam Big
ham, Il young son fifteen
years old of Uncle Samuel
Bigham, one of the oldest citizens. The
boy died this morning and was buried III

i'll the Coryell mountains and has the rep
utatiOn of getting up rows at country
balls. He made his escape and has not

heartless and dastardly outrage ever COM
mitted in the county, firing into room
filled with young ladies and gentlemen.

COAL ASA FACTOR IN CIVILIZATION.
Its Influence in Modern History Traced-Some
Interesting Facts.
New York Tribune. December


New York Tribune, December IS.
Professor j. s. Newberry of Columbia
college interested large audience ut the
college yesterday morning by a lecture
on Goal, the Dominant Factor in
Modern History. - The speaker first
told how coal was formed and
what it was from scientific
views of different writers on the subject
and traced the history of nations since
the days of intellectual activity in Egypt,
showing what a remarkable change oc-
Cured in the prosperity of different ma
tions simultaneously with the general use
of coal He said in part:
CIT may seem 'reductio ad absurdum
to attribute such mighty powers to a sub
stance SO common, so SOoty, and in some
ways repulsive, but little thought will
show us that il is scarcely more interesting
in its practical value than in its history
Few of you have realized the magnitude
and dignity of the work it is doing in the
world, and fewer still have thought that
it is really the sunshine of by
gone ages, and that it has once
composed the tissues of various strange
plants, some of which are among the
most graceful and beautiful of vegetable
forms. Buried i'll the earth or covered
with water, vegetable fibre decays or
oxidizes slowly, forming in successive
stages of decomposition, peat, Ignite,
coal, anthracite, graphic, the hydrocar-
bon gases and petroleum. BY regulating
and controlling the further oxidation of
these we are able TO utilize the resulting
force as light or heat or motive power.
"To help You to realize the potency of
this wonderful substance, coal, let me
recall to your memories the measure
ments of the power evolved in its con-
bustion 1t is estimated that with the
average engines now in use, about
l 800 200 foot pounds are practically
evolved from the combustion of a
pound of coal, and are available
in the performance of any work done.
Now, this is about the power eXerted in a
day. labor of an average man. Hence
ton of coal is capable of yielding an
amount of force equivalent 10 that of six
and two-thirtls men, or of six men and a
well grown boy throughout the year. Or
the annual production of coal III this
country and Great Britain is equivalent
to l,OOO, 900 200 men working for
year. ~

In $50, he says, the proportion Of the
population of the two cities to the popu-
lation of the state was less than one
tenth, while in 1850 it was more than
one-third, and taking the last presidential
vote as a basis the present population
is about two-ffths of the pop
ulation of the whole state. A
computation of the figures he
presents gives the astounding result of
3 800 200 population in New York in 1920,
and of > 200 goo in Brooklyn, but he
thinks that the excess of residence area
in and about Brooklyn must continue to
tell in its favor as compared with New

A Fort Worth gentleman yesterday
handed a GAZETTE reporter copy of the
opinion of Hon. James O. Broadhead,
president of the American Bar Associa-
ton, on the cOnstitutiOnality of state live
stock inspection laws as delivered by that
gentleman at the recent conference of
cattlemen and butchers held at St.
Louis. The document is not lengthy
but concise, and one of the concluding
paragraphs, Il resume of the preceding
matter, reads thus: Such legislation is
not obnoxious to any constitutional OBJ
lection, when the purpose is to guard
against disease, and preserve the
health of our citizens; and
if such legislation should re-
suit, as | believe it will in breaking the
power of monopoly and opening our mar
kets to free competition in this most
necessary article of human food it will
have accomplished a double purpose, and
prove beneficial to the producer and con-
sumner, and the cattle dealers, all of
whom are alike interested in such results
If anything is to be accomplished i'll this
direction it must be by state action.
