THE COUBT's DECISION.
Colonel Spotswood arose 10 address the
Court, but Judge Witt said no further ar
gument was necessary, as he would refuse
TO grant the license. He had determined
TO take this action because 10 grant
license would be unjust to the unanimous
protest of property-holders in the vicinity
of the Academy.
Judge Witt said the applicant was man
of excellent character. and this would
naturally 90 long way with court in
considering an application for liquor
license, but however good man may be
be cannot always prevent disorder at his
place of business. He could not afford to
disregard the petition of so many citizens
in opposition TO the saloon, and hence
would refuse license.

The colored murderer, Gibbs, says
the Dalles Times NOuntGineer,
passed through Tygh valley and cross
ed Sherar's bridge last Monday. He
crossed the bridge about 8 o'clock
Monday morning, and bought lunch
and continued on his way. Between
Sherar's bridge and Salt Springs he
purchased another lunch and engaged
supper at Salt Springs that night,
continuing on his journey without
stopping. He was dressed in light
clothes and wore a blue shirt, and is a
light-complexioned mulatto. He was
continuing on the road to Canyon
City, and told all persons who made
any inquiries that he had been work
ing in saw mill. There can be no
reasonable doubt that this is Gibbs,
as from his appearance and actions he
gave unmistakable evidence that he
was attempting to hide his identity.

per courses and abounding in trout, nav
lgable for river steamers in their lower
courses, on account of tide water. Across
the straits of Young's river bay, and
westward from the city about five miles,
is another peninsula (soon to be con-
nected by bridge and railroad), which is
a slightly rolling plain fifteen miles long
by four or five wide, which may be COM
pared to long Island, on which the fu-
ture Brooklyn to Astoria will be built.
On beyond this level peninsula. still west,
and washing its sandy beach, is the Pa

THE CITY OF ASTORIA
Is beautifully situated on promontory
peninsula embraced by the Columbia river
bay on the north, Youngs river bay on the
south, and terminating at Smiths Point
on the west. The average width Is about
three miles. 1t has about 5000 inhab-
itants. 1t has three large sawmiils, nu-
merous canneries, machine shops, boat
factories, etc. 1t has a good local trade
with the surrounding country. Twenty
five or thirty steamboats,, numerous
sloops and schooners, large and small, ply
the waters of the Columbia and Its tribu-
taries in its vicinity. The present popu-
lation, like that of most sea ports, is cos
mopolitan, and represents all classes
and conditions. That there is a cult
waited moral element here is evident by
good school buildings and an excellent
public school system and by the numer-
Gus churches. The following denomina-
tions have comfortable houses of worship
and hold regular Presbyterian,
Congregational, Methodist, Baptist (pas-
torless now, Episcopalian and Catholic.
The city has street railroad; is we'll
lighted by gas and by electricity; good
water works, telephone, etc. Its markets
are we'll supplied with the products of all
attitudes. Living is not more expensive
than in the New England states, and
wages are higher, with higher rate of
interest for capital.

ITS FUTURE PROSPECTS.

A railroad, financially provided for,
partly constructed, and now being con-
structed, is prof ected along the coast
south of this city to the mouth of the
Nehalem river, and thence in q south
easterly direction into the Willamette
valley, making connections with the
Southern Pacific above Portland. This
road passes through a region south and
southeast of this city, in which there are
fertile valleys and millions of acres Gov
cred with the famous Oregon fir, much
of which will yield 100000 feet per acre,
and is worth from 75 cents to 81 per
1000 feet in the tree. This region, mac
cessible for boats, is but partly surveyed,
and almost wholly undeveloped. A sec
ond railroad line is projected immedi-
ately down the valley of the Columbia,
to connect with the railroad systems cen
tering at Portland. These connections
will doubtless be made within two years,
and when made, the products of the Co
lumbia river basin will be shipped by
rail and steamboat to the deep water at
the wharves of Astoria, where the sea
going vessels will discharge their freights
for this region, and load for foreign and
domestic ports with its products.

that so much is heard in praise of Elec-

LOOK GUT FOR FIRE.

To Theater Owners. Managers and Whom it
May Concern:
This is to certify that have equipped tho
Windsor theater in this city with the Lind
gren stationary chemical fire engines. After
examining all other systems of fire protection,
and after repeated tests of the Lindgren sta
tionary chemical fire engine, and upon the re-
cOmmendatiOn of the insurance under-writ-
ers, have no hesitation in prOnOuncing it
the cheapest and most powerful, as well as
perfect, fire protection for theaters ever in
vented. In my opinion every theater ard
opera house in the United States, rs well as
Europe, should be equipped with these chem
ical fire engines, and thus save the loss of life
and thousands of dollars in property,
Respe otfully.

will also state that the time of applying the
chemical was left entirely to me and | did not
give the word until the fire was well started,
for in other tests / have witnessed they have
always put the chemical on the minute the

Mrs. Nell will Lose $45, 900, and the
Banks Loss is Not Yet known.

ANoKA, MIMI. April 10.-Mrs. Nell called at
the bank yesterday to get her will, which she
had placed there for safe keeping, and found
that Cashier Pratt had taken it with him in his
flight 1t is said that Pratt was her principal
heir and would receive S500.00O. After learn
ing that Pratt had stolen her will Mrs. Nell
wired her attorney at st. Paul and he executed
new one.
The Union National bank of Chicago has in
formed the local bank that a note for So coo,
Endorsed by Mrs. Nell, is deposited with them
President TicknOr also discovered another note
for $1,000 at Minneapolis. This makes a total
of $4,000, which Mrs. Nell will be obliged to
mourn as result of
ovER-CoNFIDENCE IN HUMAN NATURE.
Pratt. as administrator of Mrs Nelrs estate,
had power of attorney, which gave him abso-
lutte control of her affairs. The supposition is
that he induced her to sign the notes without
being thoroughly aware of their amount. as she
says she often signed papers which he pre-
sented to her without reading them.
The condition of the bank cannot be ascer-
tanned. the directors refuse to talk. Presi-
dent Ticknor said yesterday: These are all
time notes, and we may not hear of all for
some time. Mrs. Nell has not lost confidence
in Pratt yet 1t is impossible to find how much
money Pratt secured, as the wheat operator
and Mr.. Sparks only know how much was in

NEWS FROM LORD LONsDALE.
He Has Had Enough Of Arctic ExplOr-
alton Already.

CHICAGO, April ia dispatch from Port
Angeles, NV. T., says: The fishing schooner
Cumberland, Capt. Elliott, which arrived here
yesterday, after stormy passage of thirty-four
days, from Kodiack Island, Alaska, brings news
of Lord Lonsdale, who started upward of year
ago on trip overland to the north pole Lord
Lonsdale and a number of Esquimaux and
Indian guides reached kodiack about the mid
die of February in famished and exhausted
condition. They came from an isolated mis-
sion near the mouth of the Kuskewin river,
which empties into Bristol bay, and suffered
many hardships and privations during the Jour-
ney of months duration across the Alaskan
peninsula, Lord Lonsdale was severely injured
few days after leaving the mission. While in
the lead of his party he slipped and fell
into a crevasse. His left shoulder was so
bruised that the arm was rendered use
less and his hip was all but dislocated,
incapacitating him from travel on foot. He
was placed ON sled and in that condition
transported to Kodiack. The great stretch of
territory between the mission and the island
was covered to the depth of several feet with
light snow. The terrible blizzard that pre-
vailed caught up the light particles in clouds,
obliterating all tracks and landmarks familiar
to the guides and making drifts through which
it was next to impossible to force passage.
On February the party reached a lake almost
in the center of the peninsula. Lord Lonsdale
was somewhat improved by the rest here, and
they proceeded to Kodiack. Just before reach
ing Cooks inlet two of the Aleut guides died
and were buried in the snow. The party was
in the last stages of fatigue when they reached
Kodiack, and had not food and shelter been
found there Lord Lonsdale would have died.
He stated that he might remain at Kodiack
week or a month, and perhaps longer. as suited
his fancy He stated positively, however, that
he had had enough of Arctic exploration and
would return to England soon.

LONDONDERRY's RESIGNATION
Believed to be Solely to Avoid Respon.
sibiiity for BaIfour's Acts.

LONDON, April 10.-The reason given by the
81 James Gazette for the intended resignation
of the marquis of Londonderry from the Office
of lord Lieutenant of Ireland, that he wishes to
devote his time TO private business, is generally
considered as evasive. If not absolutely untrue.
1t has long been known that while the viceroy
was not averse 10 the Irish policy pursued bv
his presumed subordinate, but real equal SO
far as power Is concerned. Chief Secretary Bal
four lac has been greatly annoved of late by
the criticisms of that genteman's conduct he
himself being regarded as responsible in a great
measure therefor. Probably there is no man in
England and ireland less engrossed with pri-
yate business than the marquis of Londonderry.
and there is certainly none upon whose shoul-
ders the ordinary cares of life sit more lightly
In this view II can hardly be believed that he is
moved to voluntarily resign the Irish sinecure
so much sought after by Englishmen of aris.o-
cratic rank. but il is rather thought that he ia
impelled by the changed state of public feeling
resulting from the collapse of the Times ac-
cusations against the Parnellites TO take himself
out of the circle Of Irish politics while yet there
Is time to do SO.
WITHOUT SUFFERING FROM THE ACTION.
The Marquis of Londonderry is not as vet
directly connected with any Of the more yio-
lent acts of the Irish administration under the
coercion act, however much he may sympathize
with the law, but he can scarcely remain long
unconnected in the present circumstances.
The defeat in the house of commons yester-
day of MIR. Clarke's Scottish home-rule motion
has produced less effect upon the masses than
could have been thought possible in advance.
The Irish and their supporters are delighted az
the result, but the Scotch evince little feeling
in the matter. Indeed, ii is questionable whether
the average Scotchman regards the application
of local self-goyernment to Scotland as a posi-
tive advantage. The present laws are not re-
garded as particularly onerous and the Scotch
man, as a rule, is perfectly content to permit
parliament TO conduct all his legislation.
IL is understood that the retirement of Gen
Bronsart won Schellendorf from the Prussian
ministry Of war will involve a large number Of
minor changes in the military department,
and The announcement that the minister is to
be relieved, albeit by his own request, has
created considerable consterpation in the ranks
of those who have for years held sinecures il
the German war Office.
