| she Albany aud Astoria railroad, says III
Portland Real Estate Review. Thes
two ellIss viii be vcfy aptly the teFmir
OF such line. Astoria Il the key city 0
the Columbia while Albany Is the mos
promislng city Of the entire upper WIN
annette valleys 10 every enterprise tina
has come her way Albany has grandly do
mated. She Il now the junction OF severa
leading railroads and win be on the dircc
line of the road now building from 8ols,
City 10 Yaqulna. Astoria Is only waiting
the commercial link before she takes d.
impetus such as she has never had. The
course Of the Astoria and Albany failioAs
will be through Nestueca Pass and vii
touch or afford an easy communication
with the Little Nestueea, Slab creek, Sal
mon river, Big Nestucca, Send lake, Cape
Lockout, Beaver creek, Burnt Prairie and
other settlements. Hundreds upon hum
hundreds Of acreso Of tiue land yet open foi
settlement will be takea, aud the ring ol
the woodman's axe will resound through
the immense forests Of Til.amook county.
II Is estimated that fully a third of the
traffic which now goes down the william
ette and out of the Columbia will take
this course. There will be new flush OF
life all along the line OF lts travel, and Il
Is safe to say money Is already invested
along the survey.
A Doc -Four. IA ten minute dog
fight occurred one afternoon on First
street between blooded bull terrier, q
genuine leg bitter, aud an overgrown
shepherd dog, belonging to butcher.
The fight 'sas carried on from the street
to a butcher shop-to the very teeth OF a
sausage mlll--and Il took thirty men, 10
Guiding two reporters with sharp pencils,
to part them. Both were bloody looking
specimens.
Coal AND poLIsu. "A young man from
the foothills hasbeen In the city with some
specimens of coal and stone for polish.
The former was bitumInous, aud he re-
ports eight veins, but was quite secret
about the location, and seemed afraid some
one would find out It's location and take Il
of. The hills, thinks he, are undoubtedly
full Of coal, aud when facilities are sc
cured for mining, Il will probably develope
into big industry here.
A BoLD TniEF. Saturday evening n
SIS bill was placed Ia the theatrical drawer
at G LBlaekman's. Monday morning on
opening the drawer the money was found
missing. A search for Il revealed the fac,
that Il had been stolen by mouse and

drawer. where Il was found, Ia very mn-
tillated condition, only small portion be
ing ief., just enough Tor Identification.
