THE MEREST MENTION.

A peculiar feature of the visit of Vice
President Fairbanks to this city was the
studied silence of all concerned as to
the President of these United States.
Only once in the course of any of the
numerous addresses made here and at
Seaside, was the name of Roosevelt
pronounced, and then in an inadvertent
manner; but the inadvertence was met
with ringing cheer that discounted
every other manifestation OF the day. 1t
is a matte, o: public comment through
cut the city and no one has any sort of
explanation to make in regard to the
oversight tif oversight it wasl and it
win pass into history as one of those
freakish things that often occur with
out anyone being in any measure re-
sponsible for it. But all the same it was
a conspicuous piece of neglect, and now
that it is thought of and broaehed pub
licly, there will be hundreds TO recall it
with sense of reproach.
II should have been among the toasts
at the pleasant banquet by the sea on
Monday night, preceding those to the
Army and the Navy; perhaps not in
the name of Theodore Roosevelt, but by
the style and dignity of his great
office, and no speech of the day was
replete without courteous and dignifed
allusion to the President OF the United
States; this goes without saying among
people who understand the requisites OF
such an affair and its omission is hard
to account for when it is remembered
that the hero Of the hour was the sec
ond man in place, officially, in the eoun-
try, and the actual representative OF
the head of the nation wherever he may
be in a public sense.

MORE PLEASURE AHEAD.

Tn next source of genuine pleasure in
store for Astorians and for those within
the sea gates of this city, is the great
Scandinavian Sangerfest, with its mag
nifcent choruses, band and orchestra.
This is dated for Saturday the last day
of August, and Sunday and Monday, the
first and second days of September, i'm
mediately preceding the annual Regatta
which ''holds the boards" on Monday,
Tuesday and Wednesday, the second,
third and fourth of September, giving
five days of genuine pleasure to all who
may be here at that time, and 1t is
very probable there will be an enormous
coneourse Of visitors in Astoria during
the time. We are certain to have 1000
strangers, for there will be that number
here in attendance upon the Sangerfest
as the immediate friends and relatives
of that conclave of fine musicians, and
these should be augmented by a round
10000 more drawn hitherto by the
coincidental attractions.
The coming of the Sangerfest is a
royal treat for any community and As
toria must show her appreciation of the
splendid favor done her in. the selection
of this city dor the annual exposition Of
its superb personnel and program and
it is not doubted the proper showing will
be made
When one thinks of magnificent
chorus of 200 voices, augmented by a
highly trained orchestra of go pieces
and great brass band of equal strength
each member of the ensemble master
musician, it is easy TO realize the treat
in store and it should move the whole
community to the making Of such ar.
rangements as will typify our pleasure
and pride in the favor conceded us
Such things as this are not everyday

| sat by my office window looking
into the offices directly opposite oD the
other side of the court. They consist
ed of several adjoining rooms. In one
at a magnificent desk sat gentleman
with a bald head and brown whlskers
constantly tapping a silver bell to call
boy. Next was an anteroom, next
rooms full Of clerks and bookkeepers.
In the anteroom sat a girl at type
writer, though she was constantly get
ting u2 to go into the baldheaded
mans Office to take dictation.
She was willowy girl, with fair
hair and large dreamy eyes. The door
of the room In which she sat opened,
and a young man came in. He was
fashionably dressed, and | noticed
pinned to his vest college Greek
letter society badge. He went up to
the girl and said something to her.
She looked up at him with half blush
on her face and great deal of pleas
ure In her eyes. Then he went on into
the room where the baldheaded man
sat, and at once | noticed likeness
between them. They. must be father
and son. They chatted pleasantly for
time, when the young man rose to
leave. When his hand was on the door
knob, the elder man called him back,
wrote out a check and handed It to
him. He put II in his pocketbook, went
out, said something to the typewriter
girl that caused her to laugh and was
gone.
A few days later he came In again.
This time he talked good while with
the typewyjter girl. She went on with
her work. listening to him at the same
time. The faces Of both were very
serious. Presently he stole an arm
about her waist, lifted up her face and
kissed her. At that moment the bald
headed man got up from his desk and
went to the door communicating with
the anteroom. They were caught.
The father turned and went back
into his private Office. His son follow
ed him and talked rapidly. knew by
the expression of his face that he was
endeavoring to shield the girl. Wheth-
er he was talking about marriage with
her ! could not tell. could not see
the expression on the fathers face, for
he sat with his back to me. Presently
the son welt out He found the type
writer girl with her face buried in her
hands. He took them away, displaying
two burning cheeks He kissed her
again, spoke few words as If of en-
couragement and went away.
Every day the older man looked
more troubled, and his son had lost
all the yivaclty had first noticed.
The next day the typewriter did not
appear at her desk. Another took her
place. saw the son no more and con
cIuded he had returned to college. In
few months there was a sudden re-
duction of the Office force, and all the
rooms except the private office and an,
teroom were given up. Then the son
appeared regularly and with all office
boy was his fathers only assistant

they might retract their steps to safety.
