A rrareay in the FORTY Acres.

A German who lives on Lowering
avenue near Lincoln street, has dog or
did have one, which for the last few days
has been receiving more attention from
the denizens Of that part of our city
known as the Forty Acres than one dog
is Justly entitled to. Simon Elliott, who
lives at Wawaset avenue and Lincoln
street, had flock of chickens and ducks
of which he was very proud and which,
his neighbors say, were hard to equal.
This Germans dog has for some time
been getting for himself bad name and
cultivating histGste for chicken by forag
ing among the poultry of that neighbor-
hood. Until last Tuesday he has
always been content with q
single chicken and duck, but on that
fatal evening he found his way into Mr..
ElliOtt's coop and, before he left, killed
every chicken and duck within the en-
closure. numbering thirty-nine. He
then left but returned the next morning,
like criminals always do, to gloat over his
murderous deed. Park Guard Sinclair
was on the ground with his revolver and
he emptied the contents, he says, into,
but, at any event at, his dogship. Then
Sinclair. although armed with his club,
retreated to friendly stable and closed
the door. The brute is said to be mad
and he has bitten several other dogs in
that locality. Park Guard Sulli van was
looking for hsm yesterday and the dog
will be killed on sight.

Arrival of Lobsters.

Thirty boxes of Holsters arrived
yesterday morning from eastern wa
ters. OF the thirty, twenty-seven
were taken on the Gen. CGaty to
Cape Hancock, where they were
planted" in Pacific waters; two were
sent to Shoalwater bay, and one to
Gray's harbor.
They were all sizes, some of the
largest being q foot long, and having
formidable claws.
They were in moss and sea water
from the Atlantic ocean, some of it
after being brought across the conti-
nent being poured into the Pacific.
The Holsters are full of spawn, and
il all goes well, We may, in the sweet
bye and bye, have Holsters served up
on Astoria tables in the highest style
of culinary ART.
Mr.. johnson, the gentleman how IN
charge OF the Holsters, believes that
there are about 200 HOLSTERS in the
lot, and that each lobster contains
from 10000 to 10000 eggs. If each
Of these eggs should develop into q
lobster, and say half of these lobsteTs
should each produce 10000 or 10000
more eggs, and nature should KEEP
right on taking its course, the water
would be stiff with Holsters in a COM
paratively short time.
The lobsters come from Wood
Holm, Massachusetts,. They are or.
iginal Yankee Holsters. In the same
car with the HOLSTERS came 5000, ,065
white fish eggs, that is eggs that
when mature, give rise to the cele-
brated white fish that are found in
the great lakes. They are to be
turned loose in various fresh water
lakes in this section of the Union
Anybody who has a fresh water lake
and wants to stock it with genuine
white fish will hear of something to
his advantage by addressing Mr.
johnson who is at hcme in big fish
car sidetracked at Portland.

CROSSING YoUNG's BAY.
A Criticism on The Proposed Plan.
ASTORIA. Jan. %. 1889

ASTORIA, Jan. %. 1889.
To THE EDITOR OF THE AsToRIAE:
I wish to offer short criticism on
the policy adopted by the Astoria
and South Coast railway.
Before doing 30, I will say that /
am heartily in sympathy with the en-
terprise, believing it to be an under
taking which will eventually be re-
munerating to its owners and a great
benefit to the county at large.
The thing wish to critlcise is the
crossing of Young's bay from Smiths
point to the southwestern or opposite
shore Of the bay, distance of one
and one-half miles. I know how en-
gineers look upon railroad construc-
tiop; that all things being equal, the
shortest and most direct route is the
best.
But there is something connected
with this enterprise and the country,
that sets this rule aside. If Astoria
ever amounts to anything as a city,
which we all believe she will, she can
not afford to destroy SO fine body Of
water as Young's bay by driving q
row of piles a mile and a half across
the best part of it for the sake Of
saving one or two miles of distance
in travel.
The day is coming when every inch
OF ship channel through the bay and
up the two rivers that empty into it,
will be wanted for the accommoda-
ton of shipping. There can be no
doubt but the construction Of this
railroad bridge. where it is proposed
to build it, will very seriously OBJ
struct navigation above it, if not ma
terially shoal the channels as we'll as
the bay itself. The situation Of the
draw in the middle of the bay in the
most stormy part of it. would render
it very hazardous for sailing
craft to pass except at the most
favorable times. All boats, whether
great or small, would be compelled
to make a detour Of three-quarters of
a mile at high water to pass the draw.
This in stormy weather would be
great hardship; a sacrifice which
no company or community has
n right to ask of its citizens.
Itit we're the only way across the bay
it would be very different. By going
higher up and crossing the bay near
the mouth Of Young's river, where
the bay is narrow and the water al
ways still with few or no winds, and
crossing Lewis & Clarks river some
place above its mouth, where the
same conditions prevail, no ono would
be injured, and probably no one
would object, and the commercial ad-
yuntages of this fine body Of water,
and its two rivers would remain in
tact. This would necessitate two
draws, but the two draws would not
be so expensive as the one, in the bay.
The distance might be one and half
or two miles greater, but what would
that be, when compared to the cramp-
ing and cripling OF Astoria's future
growth and prosperity. The road
over the route I suggest, could be
built and maintained, cheaper than
the road across the stormy bay,
though some further. Astoria has
made some great mistakes in the past,
and she can't afford to make any
more. In the interest of her future
growth and development, and the in.
terest of the people who live on
Young's river and Lewis & CLARK, I
make this public protest.
