preach of the holidays added the officer,
VIII also make business for the 'uncles

ONCE seekers, and it will become neces-
sary, no doubt, for many of them to raise
money to get home about the Christ mas

This is Astoria evening at the expo
sltion, and a good many people from
the city at the mouth Of the Columbia
are improving the opportunity TO visit
the metropolis and contribute a mite
each to the success Of the big Portland
fair. This is the kind Of a return visit
for that OF a thousand Portlanders,
more or less, who attended the annual
regatta at Astoria two months ago. We
welcome them In the rain, as they did
us. only they are not disappointed at
II now. and our show is under cover
where they can keep dry. But being
from Astoria, they don't care much
about that But wet or dry, we well
come them all the same, and are glad
that they are having pleasant time
for a lot OF Astorians couldn't have an
unpleasant time very long anywhere
or under any sort Of circumstances. We
dispute a little sometimes, perhaps
about the future great port Of the Pa
cifc Northwest, but on such fraternal
occasions as this we forget all about
all irritating problems. and simply en-
joy ourselves Astoria viii be well rep
resented at the exposition this evening
and II the Astorians will furnish de-
cent August weather next year. theiI
towr win be fairly overrun with Port
landers attending the regatta.

There was a scene Of wild commotion
II, a Chirese laundry the other day. A
young man was having work done by
the laundry. and had in his possession
the ticket that Chinese laundrymen al
ways give to their customers, and
which 1t is absolutely necessary TO
have in order to regain the laundried
goods. In this particular case a friend
got hold of the ticket, and, making an
exact duplicate, presented 1t to the Chi
ralnan aud without any trouble gained
possession OF his friends bundle. II
was taken to its owner. and the trick
was told. The original ticket was then
presented by the rightful holder, and
then the trouble began. The head Chi
ralnan called in his assistants, and an
excited pow-wow was held. With wild
gesticulations and pigeon English, they
attempted to explain to the white man
that his goods had already been given
out. Thereupon the man feigned great
wrath, and, threatening the Mongolians
with the stern arm Of the law, took his
departure. It is not known whether or
not the bequeued gentry have entirely
recovered from their wild-eyed excite
meut but in any case 1t would be wise
for the forger to keep out Of their
clutches
