The refined vaudeville entertain
ment given last evening at Fishers by
tho Weston-Herbert combination ex-
ceiled anything OF the kind that ever
came through the northwest. Most
people are not educated up 10 modern
vaudeville. and the name implies some-
thing vulgar and unit for ladies' and
children. However, vaudeville Is In no
manner off color. but rather q form of
amusement that is destined soon TO
supplant the time-hoHored comedy per-
formance. For number Of reasons.
me attendance last night was not what
II should have been, but better pleas
ed crowd never sat through perform
ance. Every member Of the company
is an artist. and the troupe includes the
most remarkable Juvenile comedian on
the read. The little fellow. Master
clifford Brngdon. IL more than q show
In himself. He sustains an Irish char
acter in truly astounding manner,
and the audience went Wild over him.
There are three other Bragdons-Loren,
tbs elder Harold and wilbur-and their
work ts indeed rare. Hugh J. ssm-
met, made HIS initial bow to On Astor-
ian audience last evening and was ac-
corded a eend-off that was fiattering in
the extreme. Mr.. Emmett IL an art
list of exceptional ability. and as a
yentriloquist has few equals. He sang
song last night that alone WAS worth
the price OF admission, and In many
other speeiaities demonstrated his tai
ent. Miss Carrie Weston ls a charm
Ing little lady whose work is clever and
whose illustrated solos we're very pleas
ing. Weston and Herbert richly de-
serve all the credit that they have re-
celved from the press OF the coast. for
no better specialists take money from
the public. Their comedy sketch,
Down on the Farm" provoked no end
OF merrIment. as did their novelty mus
icai turn. All In all. the show is SUI
perb. and at tonight's performance the
house should be packed to the doors.
Theaterg ,ers should bear In mind that
the entertainment is refined In every
sense Of the word and that nothing
transpires which would bring even the
faintes, trace OF blush to the face Of
any young lady,

From noon yesterday 10 midnight
anxious crowds gathered about the bull

other places where returns were receiy-

own, the hopes OF the people rose and
1t was freely predicted that ne would
succeed in the gallant struggle he has
carried on. However. the great test
was still 10 come. ana every bit Of
news that could be gathered furnished
additional material for speculation.
Toward o'clock the excitement be-
came intense. As each bulletin announ-
cling the result Of the balloting was re-
cyived. the hundreds who thought Of
nothing else aired their views. To say
that they were satisfied with the noble
stand Of the 90 men who had all along
clung to the Astoria man Is TO express
It mildly. The determined stand Of
the Fulton forces buoyed up the spir-

looked dark for Senator Fulton, for he
had not made any gains. Well posted
men, however, remarked that the indi-
cation was good one, for 1t went to
show that efforts to break up the Full
ton forces were proving Intellectual.
The bulletin announcing the candi-
dacy OF Scott was awaited with much
interest, and when 1t became known
that his name was not presented until
almost midnight the opinion was gem
eral that he could not be elected.
Things were at standstill-the usu-
al Iull before the storm-when there
suddenly came over the wires brief
but wonderfully pleasing message. It
was to the effect that Charlie Fulton
had been successful. The waiting
crowd was acquainted with tbs news
and there went up a genuine Astoria
shout--one of those whole-souied cheers
that left no doubt as to the sincerity
OF the cheerers. Then the bells start
cd to ring. First the big fire bell rang
out and then followed the church bells.
In two minutes the city was crazy.
The enthusiasts broke into stores and
secured large supplies Of firecrackers
and bombs. and there followed cele-
bration that is seldom surpassed even
on the glorious Fourth. To attempt
to describe the scenes of enthusiasm
that were enacted would be impossible.
The juvenile spirit manifested itself in
everyone and Joy reigned supreme.
Calls were issued last night for a

Some delay will be occasioned by reason
OF surveys and ailotments to the Indians.
Arrangements have been made by which

The constant decrease in the Indian popu-
