ionable Whirlwind Athletic club in
Harlem tonight. His opponent is to
be Patsy Kline, who halls from some
where over in Jersey. The two are
slated to go ten rounds at l22 pounds

wise ones who whisper that if he

In his recent bouts he has made an
excellent showing and his supporters
are confident that he has a good
chance for a draw with Attell even
if he does not get the decision.

BY JUNE, AT FARTHEST

We have the word OF the President
to account for the prevalent dullness
of business all over the land. The
tariff issue, following close upon the
heels OF the Presidential year, is
enough to cause the shrinkage and
retardation OF manufacturing and
commerce, and that it effects every
community in the country alike, af-
fords ample reason to each OF them
not to attribute it to local causes nor
to assume it to be of peculiarly local
significance
By June, at the farthest, If the
Congress obeys the behest Of the
President, we should be free from the
pressure, and even sooner, if it be-
comes known to any certainty what
the new schedules are to be; for the
great industrial and business houses
of the world will not wait for the end
Of formaliaies to start the wheels and
ships and factories, but will have
things so arranged as to take the
earliest benefits of the new policies,
and viii practically launch their long
deferred schemes in time to meet
final adoption of the Governments
readjusted charges upon the COM
merce of the country.

A. q C IMPROVEMENTS

As intimated in these columns
some weeks ago, there is to be Inn
mediate and marked improvement in
the A. & c. rail system and service,
and the line is to be put in such shape
as to meet the demands OF heavy
summer traffic to the coast resorts,
which of course includes Astoria,
despite the fact that particular stress
Is laid upon Seaside in Mr.. Adams
recent interview; But that is neither
here nor there; the main thing is,
that there is something at the mouth
Of the Columbia that can move the
railroad people to put on an ad-
vaneed and costly service and bring
the whole system up TO better stand
ards. We are glad Of il, and hope
the resorts, the country, this city,
and the company, viii prosper in the
doing of it.
While we are on this interesting
subject we cannot help putting for
ward demand for this city that We
believe is timely and reasonable:
The giving to Astoria Of one-way-
rate-excursion fare out Of here on
Sundays. Portland enjoys an over
Sunday rate Of practically one cent
a mile to this city and the coast
points and it is immensely popular.
Astoria would be just as appreciative
Of the one-cent rate and patronize il
heavily throughout the entire year,
and we believe we are entitled to it.
AS things are we pay far more for
our little excursions at the weeks
end than any other patrons on the
line. And this matter need not be
confined to the A. & c. either The
o. R. & N. and the l. R. R. should
meet the situation and make it pos
sible for Astorians to take in the
northshore beaches when they want
a change, and give the people over
there the opportunity to do the same
thing.
The one-way rate is immensely
popular all over the country and
there can be no doubt it will prove
so down around the mouth Of the Co
lumbia. 1t should be tried out for
one season. at any rate, and if it fails
we shall be TO blame for it.
There is any amount Of talk about
it just now, and new summer
schedule covering this concession
would be hailed with delight!

THE GUARD ENcAMPMENT.

General FINER knows the health
lest and most beautiful spot for the
summer mobilization of the Oregon
National Guard; that is why he is
anxious to send the boys" to the
mouth of the Columbia this year. 1t
is the ideal spot for the soldier, busi-
nessman, student, tourist, idler so
far as health pastime, scenery, eli
mate, comfort and convenience are
concerned. There is nothing to beat
it in all the Northwest which is
proven by the annual pilgrimage Of
hundreds of thousands hither. We
have the varied charms of city
life, suburban life, life in the noun
tains, by the sea, on the rivers, and
all degrees of admixture that may be
desired; but above all we have the
ideally perfect summer of the Paci-'
fc coast. A consideration that the
citizen-so1dier will appreciate quite
as much as any of his fellows.
He has the advantage Of the forts
and all the war equipment that aids
him in the requirement of his tech
nical knowledge, including extensive
facilities for the practice of the art
Of arms in all its phases and de-
mands; with the chief advantage of
indulging them all without "raising
a hair" in the daytime, and finding
grateful resort to his campfire and
double blankets, at night
His hours Of recreation may be di-
vided infinitely in hundreds Of near

SIZES or BOOKS.
Meaning Of The Terms Folio, ousrto,
Octave aud paodoeime.

Meaning Of the Terms Folio, ouartc
Octave aud Duodoeimo.
The words folio" "quarto." "octa.
vo," "duodeclmo" and the like have
almost, II not quite, lost their original
meaning, At first they had reference
only to the number Of leaves into
which the sheets used in making the
book were folded. Thus II these
sheets were folded once the book was
called folio; II the sheets were fold,
ed twice, so as to form four leaves,
the book was called a quarto; II they
were folded four times, so as to form
eight leaves, the book was called an
octave, and SO on.
The duodecimo, or 12mo, Is an lr.
regular size. To make II the sheet
must be folded so as to form twelve
leaves. Fold one-third Of the width
Of sheet lengthwise on itself. Next
fold the paper across It's breadth In
the center Next fold the sheet across
its length--that Is, fold the two leaves
on the four Finally fold It again
across and In such shape that II may
easily be sewed in with others TO form
a book.
But though, strictly and historically.
Quarto, octave, etc, have reference
solely TO the manner Of folding the
sheet they are, as a matter Of com
mon practice, used to specify the sizes
Of books.
II the sheets on which books are
printed were Of uniform size quarto
page would be as unvarying an area
as a square foot or an acre, and be.
fore the invention Of machines for
making paper there was such uni
formity to be found in the sizes OF
sheets.
But when paper making machines
were introduced and the use Of molds
was abandoned sheets came to be
made Of all dimensions. AS a result
quartos and octav0s had all sorts Of
dimensions, and the terms, when used
strictly to indicate how the sheet was
folded, became worthless as designa-
tions Of size. The use Of the old
terms was nevertheless not abandon
ed, but instead they were first used
to indicate a rather wide range Of
sizes and finally were attached to GER
tain more definite sizes, without refer
ence to the method Of folding.
The practice of the publisher now.
adays Is first to determine what size
of page he wants. The sheet he uses
will be large or small, according to the
capacity Of the press at his disposal
On that sheet he may print, say, eight
octave pages, or he may print thirty
two, but he will call the book an oc-
taVo, though by its folding It should
be called either a quarto or 16mo.
In other words, the publisher calls
his book by the name Of that one Of
the old sizes to which 1t happens to
come nearest.
The confusion resulting from the
changes noticed here has not passed
away yet, but efforts have been made
to give defniteness to the old words
