Special to The Herald.
SAN BERNARDINO July &c C.
Janney, a we'll known mining man of
this city who has just returned from
the desert in the vicinity of the Cool
garde placer mining claims, of which he
was the original locator, says that the
report that a placer strike has been
made in that section which is turning
out from 500 to $500 per ton is a
canard. pure and simple, and is being
circulated by bunch OF ambitious pro-
moters who are trying to unload a
block of claims on he public.
He says it is almost criminal to
spread such reports and get men to go
to the desert at this time of the year,
when they are liable to lose their lives
from the intense heat and scarcity of
water on the desert.

A WORD ABOUT THE LEADING
EVENTS OF THE WEEK
Operators Won't concedej a Blot.

Operators Won't Comedies Riot.
All efforts to compromise the anthracite
mining differences have ended in failure.
The operators Tuesday made a final reply
to the miners in which they reiterated
that they.would only agree to arbitrate as
to whether there was anything to arbitrate
or not, holding the strike commissions
findings OF three years ago to be binding
unless new conditions have arisen. They
say they have nothing further TO offer.
The hard coal mines continue idle, save
few of them. There was serious riot
Monday at the Windber mines near
JohnstowD, Pa, caused by the effort of
several thousand miners to rescue COM
rades who had been arrested by the con-
stabulary. Finally, the latter opened fire,
killing three men outright and wounding
many. The mob was then dispersed with
fire hose. Guards have been poured in,
though excitement continues.

DER to Build Up the City.
MONEY TO BE EXPENDED
Astorians Are Waking up 10 the Neces.
sity Of Organized Effort to Beau
tify and Improve the City
and Building Homes.

Through the efforts of enterplasng
citizens, several civic improvement or
carnations have been formulated in the
city with the intention Of opening out
new streets, building homes and heauti.
flying the city, For long time the As.
torian advocated organizations of this
kind. and through its efforts Civic I'm
provement League was organized, with
the object of promulgating eastern ideas
in beautifying the residence portion of
the city. The organization was compos-
ed chiefly of prominent women OF the
city and although they worked hard
and faithfully, their efforts were not
appreciated The work, however, ac-
complished in many of the eastern cities
has stimulated the people OF Astoria
to organized efforts with the result that
several organizations have been effected
and increased activity has resulted in
securing large membership,
In order 10 make the work OF the
different organizations successful, it will
be necessary to secure the cooperation
of the common council, to the end, that
many streets can be opened and improv,
ed, affording opportunities for residents
and new comers to secure homes thereby
stimulating business activity with its
resultant benefits to the entire city.
The indications are, that Astoria will
be one of the most prosperous cities on
the coast this summer and fall, and
more and better buildings will be added
in addition to an increase in the popula
ton. In addition to opening streets and
building homes, there is considerable
important work in store for the various
organizations. Many OF the streets and
