Complaints have been made regarding
the slowness Of the work of putting
Commercial street In proper shape for
travel. The delay Is not due to any
want Of diligence upon the part Of
the contractor or the superintendent OF
rtreets, but is owing TO the inability Of
the mills TO furnish the lumber m5c-
ossary TO complete the work.

Just behind the bulls foreleg sent a
bullet through the animals heart and
saved Preston's life. They always

IL has been suggested that the cham
ber Of commerce. push club and other
commercial organizations of the city
give TO the visiting delegates OF the
grand lodge OF Odd Fellows OF oregon
an entertainment Of public nature,
Whether this should take the form OF
n banquet. during which the visitors
and our own representative citizens
win be able to express their views con-
cerning Astoria, or whether 1t shall
be n mass meeting OF the citizens to
which the delegates will be invited, is
undecided Certain Il Is that some pub
lie recognition should be given the
odd Fellows who will attend the grand
lodge. They come from every county
In the state of Oregon, and the good
or bad opinions OF Astoria they will
carry home with them will depend
largely upon how much they learn
about our city and its resources during
their sojourn here. The resident odd
Fellows seem unac ,ountably lukewarm
in arranging for the grand lodge meet
ing they struggled so hard to get.

erous enjoyable excursions could
be arranged to points Of in
terest adjacent TO Astoria without
much trouble or cost While It is quite
true that the grand lodge Of odd Eel
lows will have a considerable amount
of important business to transact,
still the old axiom Of ''all work and no
play makes Jack a dull boy" will be
found to be held true by most OF the
visitors, A few short excursions with
at least one public reception will make
the odd Fellows grand lodge meet
ing OF 1900 one Of pleasant remem-
brance. Despite the fact that II mas
been announced that accommodations
have been secured for all the delegates
who are expected to be in attendance
upon the grand lodge, j. W. WEIGH,
chairman of the reception committee,
states that the number Of available
rooms. as far as reported, is still far
short OF the requirements. He has,
therefore requested that all those who
are In position TO supply aecommo-
dations OF this nature notify him Of
the fact without delay, as he Is keep

will be made.
