The new invention for use in yacht
bul ding the "Tobin bronze" will in
all probability play an important part
in yacht-building in years to come.
The new metal is a remarkable COM
bination of lightness, strength and ten
sile power, and has consequently been
found to be Of great value in boat
building. 1t is especially adapted to
the plating Of the underbodies 'bf
yachts, and is Of wonderful value for
centre boards The inventor was anx-
ious to prevent the English boat-build-
ers from obtaing any of the new met
al for use on the yachts which will In
this years racing defend the Victoria
Cup and compete for the emblem so
highly honored on this side, but the
secret leaked out, and although the
English yachts will not benefit from
the discovery this year, 1t is an almost
absolute certainty that in the future
the use of the metal will become uni
versal in this branch of the boat
builders craft.

been made to exhibit the beautiful
hand painted china done by Miss Laing,

are over 400 pieces in all, of rare shapes
and designs, and of nearly every pat
tern now In use. They consist of plates
that equal in workmanship and quality
many produced in the celebrated fac
tories Of Europe; Royal Worcester jar
diners that would delight the heart
of the most fastidious connoisseur;
chocolate sets, cracker jars, bonboniers,
tea sets, trays, and numerous other
articles, all most beautifully decorated
after the celebrated Royal Berlin, Roy
al Worcester, Dresden, and Doulton
wares. AS fine a collection Of rare
handiwork has seldom been exhibited
anywhere on this coast and in this
there is an interesting and instructive
treat for Astorians.

LUMBER INTERESTS.

President James j. Hill of the Great
Northern Railway announces through
rates for lumber from Duluth and
West Superior to New York, Boston
and other eastern markets. These
rates are to supplement the through
rate of eight dollars per ton, which he
had previously established from Seattle
to Lake SUPERIOR The important
notifications enable the Washington
saw mills to develop business in east
ern markets from which they were
previously debarred by high freight
rates.
This state Of things should arouse
the attention Of lumbermen In and
around Astoria. Owing to the lack of
railroad facilities they are placed at
a serious disadvantage in cultivating
trade with the eastern markets. The
Union Pacific and the Northern Pa
cifc may meet the cut-that Is, they
may reduce their rates, but If they do
the reduction will go into effect at
Portland which is far from the lumber
region, and not take effect at Astoria,
which Is in the vicinity Of forests that
would yield many million feet Of the
finest lumber on the planet. If our peo-
pie strive to compete with the Sound |
saw mills they are handicapped by the |
additional expense Of sending the lum-
ber by water, from here to Kalama or
Portland, where 1t arrives saddled with |
handling chrages which are not in
CURED at Seattle or Tacoma, where the |
lumber is loaded from the saw mill
to the railroad car
Steps should be taken by the Cham |
ber of Commerce and Board of trade |
to bring this glarlng inequality under
the attention of the Union Pacific rail- |
road, which is the most closely con-
cerned. That great corporation which
is now strong and prosperous, should
undertake to put Astoria ON as good
footing In these respects, as the country
serve by the Great Northern and
Northern Pacific. 1t can do so most
effectually by building the proposed
railroad from here to Portland.
