was the scene Of very pretty we'd
ding yesterday afternoon. when her
daughter, Miss Mary Alice Gray. was
married to Mr.. George Arthur Hart

mony was solemnized by Rev. william
Seymour Short at o'clock in the pres
ence OF the near relatives and a few
intimate friends Of the contracting
parties. The bride was gowned in a
beautiful cream colored white crepe
over silk dress. and looked very stately
as she marched through the daisy chain
formed by the Misses Eva Froome, May
Morgan. Ann Blesen, Elizabeth Milne
and sallie and Louise Gray. The we'd
ding march was played by Miss Jessie
Hartman, sister OF the groom, and the

performed In an archway made OF
smilax. white roses and tulle. and the

The suit now being heard before
Judge Mcbride. which involves the
question as to whether or not the
north fork Of the Clatskanie Is a
navlgable stream is one OF the most
important actions ever heard in this
county The defendants in the action,
Normand Bros, represent extensive
logging interests. Tributary to the
north fork Of the stream, according to
an Astoria capitalist who is largely
interested In that section, is timber to
the amount OF approximately 5O0,O0O,-
1000 feet. This vast tract of timber is
worth 81 per. thousand feet in logs,
and the total value of the tract is
ss5,OOO,O0O. Much of 1t must come
out by way of the stream over which
the action has been brought, Jacob
Kamm seeking to have the court en-
join the loggers from using the stream.
A few days ago Judge Mcbride visited
the stream and personally examined
1t. Because Of the vast interests in
volved, the case is attracting much in
terest. One of the gentlemen inter-
ested in the timber there said yester-
day that his company had made every
effort to arrange with Mr.. Kamm for
the right to float down the logs, but
that the Portlander had declined every
proposal made to him. The company
offered to pay him $500 yearly for the
privilege Of floating the logs through
his property, and agreed also to keep
the banks of the stream in good repair,
but Mr. Kamm would not do business
on this basis, and the loggers deter
mined to undertake the legal battle,
to avoid which they made the PROPOSE
tion above stated. Many witnesses are
being examined and the case is closely
followed,

The chemical engine has been moved
to its new location at the foot Of Tenth
street. The council has thus far failed
to make provision for the gong whistle
which Chief Stockton desires to in
stall In lieu Of the big fire bell. A
requlsItion for the whistle was sent
In 10 the council at Tuesday nights
meeting. but the council held II up
pending written agreement that the
Astoria Electric Company would make
no charge for operating the the whis-
tie. Manager Coolidge has signifed his
willingness TO operate the whistle with
out charge to the city, but the council
wants an agreement TO that effect
The matter was referred to the COM
mlttee on fire and water, the members
OF which Will consult Manager Cool
idge. The delay is due purely to the
formality necessary. and not because
OF any doubt that the company might
fail to make good It's promise.

he UNEAR1HED A AASTADON
Mayor smrprenant's Singular
Discovery In the Klondike.

The discovery in the KIondike OF a
large mastodon recalls that Mayor
surprenant Of this city also unearthed
IA prehistoric monster in the gold fields
|of the north. Mayor surprenant had
rather an extended experience In the
IRlondike. and the mastodon which ne
discossred was pronounced TO be one
|of the most perfect specimens ever
found.
After o residence OF some months In
the KIondike. Mr.. Surprenant deter
mined 70 open mine on Bonanza
creek. He had force OF six men at
work. and before they had dug very
far they came across the skeleton OF
the monster. Realizing It's great value
TO naturailsts, Mr. surprenant urged
the men TO be careful. and the im-
mense remains Of the mastodon were
|unearthed.
In every respect the specimen was
fine one, the tusks and teeth being in
q state Of perfect preservation. T'he
tusks were IS feet in length, and the
jaws measured 4 feet Q inches across.
Some idea OF the size Of the mastodon
can be gained from the statement that
one OF its teeth measured on inches
In breath, SIX inches In length and on
inches In depth. This tooth the mayor
carried to Dawson and gave to friend,
who promised to send It to the Smith
sonian institute at washington city.
Because Of the great size OF the
skeleton we were unable to hoist 1t
from the earth" related Mayor Sur
pserant, in telling the story yesterday.
1T 10 indeed lamentable that the frame
Of the beast could not have been Sc
cured by scientists. for 1t was truly
a remarkable specimen
The fact that mastodons have been
found In the frozen regions OF the
far north. when such animals are
known to have inhabitated tropical
portions OF the earth, has led scien-
lists to believe that the present frozen
portions Of the earth were once the
tropics. While In the KlondIke Mayor
surprenant demonstrated this theory
to his own satisfaction. He dug far
down into the earth and secured dirt
which had not been affected by the
extreme cold. and In which the seed"
had not been destroyed. He then un-
dertook TO grow tropical plants. His
first experiment proved unsuccessful.
but the second time he succeeded in
growing flowers that could Save sprung
only from tropical earth.
Not long since another mastodon was
discovered in the Klondike, and the
finders were trying to keep it intact
and send It to washington. whether
or not they succeeded in doing SO has
not been learned,
