THAT "LAUDERBAcH" FEST

The Elks of Astoria have declared
their purpose of holding 'Lauderbach
Fest" on the evening of October Srd, the
affair to be strictly within the compass
Of the membership. Now this is all
right and the thing sure to be a success
and as funny as they can make II. But
what this suffering public wants to know
is, what is a Lauderbach Fest' Fest, Of
course is feast; but everyone outside the
lodge and committee circle is up against
"Lauderbach," even the German popula.
tion Is hard aground on that. One pro-
minent German citizen, an Elk himself,
confessed, yesterday, his utter ignorance

taken from "Lauterbach," the name Of a
lively little town in Saxony, where the
sole ti) industry is the manufacture Of
hosiery and where the population Is Civ

music never die out, day, nor night. It
Is up TO Exalted Ruler Barger and his
committeeman to relieve the poignancy
Fof popular curiosity on this matter.
They had no business to excite II in the
first place.

The famous old stone monument set
up at ancient Fort Astoria, IN 1914, to
mark the spot where the sturdy COVER
nor Of the fort was buried after his trag-
ic death in the waters Of Columbia riv.
er, and which has passed through 20
many vieissitudes in its ninety-one years
Of service, will be again erected In pub
lie view this morning at the southeast
corner Of the square now occupied by
Astoria's beautiful city nall.
The old stone stood upon its original
setting for years and years, while an
endless dispute waged among interested
Astorians and historians as to the ex.
actly right spot Of sepulture awarded
the brave commander whose memory
1t perpetuates. During the heat OF the
controversy, or during one Of its lulls,
perhaps, some years ago, some bold citi-
zen thought to allay the long-drawn con.
tention and took the memorial TO Port.
land where it was ensconeed in the cor
ridors of Portland's then, new municipal
building. About a year ago, other good
citizens of this city, seeing it there, out
lawed, as 1t were, from the territory TO
which II meant SO much, made formal
demand upon the city authorities for its
return here. This was conceded and the
stone was brought home and put in
storage under the custody of the Foard
4 Stokes scompany, where II has lain
ever since. W ray

committee consisting of Judge J. Q. A.
Bowlby, J. W. weleh and A. Scherneek-

for the crumbling monument; and the

evidenced by the big and slightly iron
