FRANK ]. CARNEY GETS
ASTORIA POST OFFICE
NOMINATED IN FEDERAL SEN
ATE YESTERDAY BY THE
PRESIDENT.

The following despatch brought the
good news to Frank ]. Carney, oi
this city, last night, that he has been
nominated for the Postmastership Of
the City Of Astoria:
WASHINGTON, Jan. ls.-Ths
President today nominated Frank J.
Carney as Postmaster at Astoria, to
succeed John Hahn. This appoint
ment is made solely on the recon-
mendation Of Senator Fulton"
Without deprecating, in the least,
the claims and efforts Of MIR. Hahn,
the present capable postmaster Of this
city, the Astorisn, along with hun
dreds Of other friends, will corcially
congratulate Mr.. Carney, and wish
him a pleasant and successful term
OF service.
Mr.. Carney is not only faithful
and ardent Republican, but an excel
lent citizen, and business man Of the
first degree, and one who will do all
in his power to bring the postal serv-
ice within the growing scale Of its
necessities and render prone service
personally and officially SO long as ne
shall hold the trust.
Mr.. Hahn's term of Office will ex-
pire on the 23rd instant, though that
gentleman contends that i runs to
the 10th OF April next, the date upon
which he entered upon the discharge
of his duties; but it usually held that
the date Of the commission governs in
matters Of this sort and the rule will
probably prevail in this instance. Mr.
Hahn has made careful and oblging
officer during the four years Of his in
cumbency, and has made many friends
BY his patience and forbearing cour-
tesy, all Of whom will wish him gem
uine success in whatsoever business
he may take up after his retirement
from this important post.

J, A. Fastabend, the well known
Astoria contractor, builder and miner,
has arrived home and Is enjoying a
we'll earned rest He left his famous
mining properties In the Santiams,
about three weeks ago, and reports
that the property is justifying every
move made by It's owners for final
development, The snow Is very heavy
and deep up in those ATTITUDES this
winter; but It has not deferred the
company from proceeding with the
work Of erecting buildings, upon
which the crew went 10 work after
II had worked for several weeks on
the portable sawmill that was taken
into the mountains to expedite the
improvements contemplated, Then
the holidays intervened and now the
task has been taken up again In good

LITTLE GIRL DIES, TOO,
FROM THE FIRE
DOUBLE FUNERAL OF THE
CHILD VICTIMS SUNDAY
AFTERNOON AT 2;sO.

Little Agnes Burns, the child who
was terribly burned at her parents
home in Uppertown Thursday, died
yesterday afternoon, thus adding an
other cruel chapter to the Iamentable
tragedy. Her brother, a baby boy Of
not quite three years, died from the
burns he received short time after
the flames were extinguished
Though the little one had received
the best Of medical attention it is
probable she may have inhaled the
flames and therefore little Or nothing
could be done.
AT FIRST it was thought the
child was all right and the physician
in charge was hopeful that no serious
results would follow. The mother,
too, has been terribly upset BY the
frightful tragedy.
The funeral Of both the little boy
and baby girl will be held Sunday afr
ternoon from the Gilbaugh chapel, at
2:30 o'clock. Interment will be in
Greenwood.
Last night the physician who had
been in attendance upon the little
baby girl said that it was probable
that the child had inhaled some Of the
flames, thus causing pneumonia to set
in. Or perhaps there had been some
Internal injuries which were not dis
coverable readily III such little one.
Outwardly there had been little or
nothing to indicate that death would
result SO soon.

yoir and he wanted permission to
have the over flow pipe from the rev.
eryoir carry away his refuse, but the
commissioners thought this would be
very inadvsablc, II Is suggested the
residents Of that locality should dig
deep excavations for their sewerage.
In accordance with the resolution
adopted AZ the first meeting Of the
commissioners in relation 10 the char.
Ter provision pertaining 10 the quail
ilication Of members, the city attor-
ney, Mr.. Abercrombie, has written to
Jddgc Nc Bride asking for bis opin-
ion u the effect and meaning Of the
provision. There ID some natural
doubt that Judge Mcbride will re-
spond 10 the request Of the commis-
sioncrs, though Il Is not doubted that
his well known courtesy win prompt
him to do so II he can sec his way
clear to interpret the provision II Is
usual for judges TO carefully refrain
from giving any opinion on any mat
ter which might later come before
them in some legal proceeding, and
tie usual course to settle such mat
tcrs Is to institute friendly suit, thus
bringing the question properly and
fully before the court. However,
courts do sometimes give such opin-
ions, though probably very rarely
when a public officials duties are not
the question at issue. In this case,
however there are no contending
parties, or no apparent possibility Of
any ones private interests being af-
iected, and it may be that Judge Nc
Bride viii settle the whole question
for the commission without the need
81 any proceedings in court.

WATER COMMISSION IS
N REGULAR SESSION
APPOINTMENT OF CLERK is
AGAIN PUT OVER TO SOME
FUTURE MEETING.

At the meeting OF the Water COM
mission Thursday night the question
Of appointing a clerk to succeed Mr..
Lounsberry was put off until a later
time, as also was the appointment Of
successor to Frank Crang, who re-
signed his post as inspector. There
seems to be disposition on the part
OF the commission TO retain Mr., Loun
berry's services as long as possible,
probably because OF his great familiar
ity with the multitudinous details Of
the work, A committee Of two mem-
bers was appointed by Chairman Fish
er to examine into the applications
for the inspectorship
Very little important business arose
for any final action at the meeting.
The question Of the new pipe line was
discussed at length, and the new mem
bers evince desire to learn all they
can Of the needs and Of the proposed
changes in the water service.
The designations Of Messrs, Elmore
and Bowlby were accepted. As the
permanent standing committee on
water rates Commissioners Welch
and Kankkonen we're appointed.
Commissioners Brix and Holmes
were appointed as the auditing COM
t9ittee,
The request Of John Christian to
connect his sewer pipe with the over

fused. His place is near the reser-

SNOW ALL GONE AS #
BY MAGIC
CITY IN COMPLETE DARK
NESS ALL or THURS
DAY NIGHT.

With d rapidity that was little
short Of marvellous the foot or more
Of snow that lay on the ground all
melted away during the period from
shortly before dusk Thursday and
daylight yesterday morning. space
of about II hours. That was al the
rate Of an inch an hour
When citizens arose yesterday
morning il was to look out on q
changed world. The cold white
blanket that had oyerspread every
thing for the preceding week was
all gone and IN rs stead was the
dark earth Of the streets, looking
fresh and clean, and the green grass
of the lawn, looking as fresh and
clean as after a summer shower.
"'fhc good old south winds" said
everybody and his sister yesterday.
BIZ. pleasant as was the opening Of
the day, the preceding night was al
most as superlatively bad. The clos
ing off Of the water at II o'clock be-
cause Of the breaks in several Of the
big city mains, nccessiiated the shut
ting down Of the electric lights, as
the plant did not have a supply Of
water for its boilers, and this left the
streets In compile darkness. At 1890
O'Clock the incandeseent lights in the
houses were also turned OF, and
those who were up and about were
startled By this. The whole city was
In a primitive darkness. At the Office
Of the Morning Astorian there was
CONSERVATION in the air, for the shut
ting of OF the lights, and especially
shutting OF Of the electric power
meant that the linotype machinery
could no longer be used, thus stop
ping all typesetting. Nevertheless the
paper was gotten out, after fashion,
--after sort Of candlestick fashion,
In fact.
The breaks in the city mains are a
serious matter and it is said that
most Of the mains in uniontown are
all in bad shape, while in other parts
oi the city the breaks are only ocea-
sional, There Is plenty Of water in
the big reservoir now, and as soon
as the mains are placed in working
order there will be a plentitude of
is, as soon as Mr.. House
holder and his wife get their pipes
thawed out The number Of pipes in
private homes that have been frozen
can only be guessed at, but II is un-
questionably very large. Plumbers
are busy and are likely to be kept in
rushed state for q month to come.
Many a roof has leaked, too, from the
snow on top, and much damage has
resulted to walls, ceilings and car
pets. II would be difficult to esti-
mate the loss Of the week in Astoria
in dollars and cents, though ali the
detailed losses put together would
doubtless make pretty big aggre-
gate.

Dog Tags Here

The dog tags have arrived and are
now al the police station. All dog
licenses were due and payable At the
6rst Of the year but inasmueh as the
tags had not come no effort was
made 10 collect the licenses, but since
the little metal vouchers have arrived
the matter Of collecting the canine H.
eenses win now be taken up with
vigor The tags are about an inch
long and are in the shape Of ileshy
figure nine-indicaiivc OF the year
1909. Thus Il may be seen at glance
u a dog has been licensed or not, for
the tags or their absence could be OBJ
served a block away. But the pret-
test part Of the tags Is the curly cue
at the bottom, formed by the lower
loop ot the figure nine, II forms q
regular hook and may prove very use
ful in the event that one might wish
to tic his dog anywhere. He could
simply hang the dog on the nearest
fence by means Of this hook and de-
part on his business with the assur-
ance that when he came back the dog
would stiil be there
