BRIGHT pRospEcTs.
Grand Work Accomplished by the Sub
say Committee Yesterday-Nearly
Every Owner Of Property
Responding to the Call.

livery Owner Of Property
Responding to the Call
inc work Of the subcommittee of the
subsidy committee yesterday excelled
even the fondest anticipations Of the
most sanguine. OF the number called
upon for donations of 20 per cent Of
their real estate holdings, there was but
one refusal, and in that case the gem
ueman said he would take the matter
under consideration.
Ihere is general feeling now that
something must be done, if Astoria is
ever to amount to anything, and in or
der to save property owners and busi-
ness men alike from the Inevitable con-
sequences of continuance of the dull
business of the past few months.
IL Is also realized by the people gem
orally that the more outside capital is
interested in the city proper the better
1t will be for every one, and many of
those who have given one out of four or
hve business lots which they owned did
so because they knew that when the
lot given to the subsidy is made doubly
valuable, the property they have left
must also be increased in value in like
ratio. -Four lots worth $1,000 each."
said one gentleman yesterday, "are
worth more than five that would bring,
If sold now only 5000 or $4OO each.'
Yesterday the West Shore Mills Com
pany handed in a deed to a full one
fifth of all the real estate they own in
the city, and the subscriptions from the
Badollet estate and John Hobson are
expected today The property given by
the West Shore Mills Company con-
sists of an entire block near the mill
site. and several single lots in the same
vicinity.
The names Of those who have con-
tributed full 20 per cent of their hold
ings are as follows Some of them have
already been published but it is the in
tention to add to the list from day to
day, as the deeds are received, and let
the public know exactly how each prop
erty owner stands on the proposition to
push Astoria into her proper place, or
allow the present golden opportunity to
slip past forever;

in the River.

Nils Johnson and Gus Melinski Drowned
in the River.
Thlre il every reason to fear that the
waters Of the Columbia have claimed
two more victims, Nils Johnson and
Gus Melinsd, employees Of the North
Shore Packing Company, having been
missing since Wednesday last. From
James Thompson, who was acquainted
with both the missing men, the follow
Ing circumstances in connection with
the disappearance were obtained yes
terday:
Johnson and Melinski, who lived in
the North Shore cannery, started up
the river for Rrookfield in boat No. 20,
at 10 O'clock Wednesday morning, for
the purpose Of securing twine at Meg
ler's to begin preparations for the COM
ing seasons work. Shortly afterward
Thompson saw the boat little above
knappton Mill in heavy squall. She
was run np Into the wind and the sail
lowered, Thompson then went into the
cannery, and when he raappeared few
minutes later the boat was not to be
seen.
Another fisherman, whose name could
not be learned. stated he saw the sail
raised second time, and that the boat
shortly afterwara was lost to view but
the fact remains that neither the boat
nor its occupants have since been heard
of.
johnson was single man and a ma
i've Of Larvig, Norway, and Mel..nslsi,
who vas also unmarried. was from Ger
many The former was well known
among the Norwegians in San Fran

some time,
