An Easier Rate

General Freight and Passenger
Agent H. NJ. Adams, of the Seattle,
Portland & Spokane Railway, at
Portland, in conversation recently
with Manager Frank NJ. Hanlin, OF
the Astoria theater, in reference TO
that gentleman's request for an abat-
ed rate for the companies billed to
this city from the main line points,
intimated that II was very likely that
the old $500 round-trip rate between
Portland and Astoria would soon be
resumed, and maintained, and that
companies under engagement here
would have the benefit of that rate,
il not better one, and would take
the matter up with his chiefs at the
earliest moment. A number Of thea
trical engagements have had to be
cancelled here this season owing to
the prevailing rate, which was deem
ed too heavy to permit OF sending
companies OF 50 and 90 people.

Miss wise's Recital

Among the cleyerest Of Astoria's
clever musicians, Miss Hattie Wise
figures very conspicuously and hap
PLY. and her piano recital this even
ing at the First NJ. E. Church, for
the benefit Of the Epworth League Of
that church, will, undoubtedly be
Overwhelmingly attended. Miss Wise
has place in the amateur world Of
Oregon that is distinct and pro-
nounced owing to the infinite pains
she has taken to achieve real mastery
Of the piano and the extraordinary
pitch of excellence she has attained
to; she possesses a manner and
method all her own and her technique
is endorsed by her master and critics
as wonderful. She is native daugh-
ter Of the city, and Astoria has an
opportunity, in this evenings engage
ment, to prove its pride by going to
hear her.

No Place To Hitch


J. w Reith, one Of the Clatsop
county farmers, called at the Cham
ber Of Commerce yesterday of which
organization he is a member, and
asked Manager Whyte to have a
resolution introduction in relation to
the question OF a public market
place in Astoria, The resolution
also states that it is the opinion OF
the farmers that the city of Astoria
should furnish a market place where
farmers may leave their teams when
they come to town, and also where
they may have on view their pro-
ducts for the purpose of selling them
TO householders and merchants. The
plan seems to be so excellent as to
require no elucidation, and there is
no question that it would meet with
favor both among the farmers and
householders, At the present time
there is no place for farmers TO hitch
their teams, and they are compelled
to pay for the privilege of putting
them in stables, If they have things
to sell there is no place for the dis
playa 1t Is believed that grounds
can be secured for a market place if
there is an effort made.
