Another False Alarm

Last evening Just as the business
world Of Astoria was closing down
its daily business affairs, an alarm Of
FIRE was sent in 10 the department
from Seventh street and Jerome ave-
nue., practically al the crest Of the hill
territory. The chief and three Of the
ERE teams made the ascent to the
neighborhood indicated, only to find
that someone had given the alarm on
the score Of some smoking tar on the
roof Of house that was being treat
cd 10 an asphaltum coating and in no
sort Of danger Of FIRE; but the call
was on the side Of prudence anyway,
ard this Is always u &c commended.
But the haul up the stiff grades to
reach the scene in question was
severe test on the speed and endur-
ance Of the FIRE horses, The house
in question was that oi Theodore Jo-
scphson, the well known shoe mer-

A Staple Fixture Now.

Every city has its gas works, its
tram-lines, its docks and other es-
sential utilities and fixtures and places
Of interest and resort, just as Astoria
has, and among the popular and es-
tabiished sources Of public concern
here, in addition to all these indis-
pensable things, this city has the
"Jewell" the well appointed and al
ways interesting moving picture
house, than which none is more In
favor here, It has made good, and
stands as one Of the sources OF un-
ceasing interest with this people.

cable To Fort cnnbr--


IL Is said the new military cable,
from For, tSevens to Fort Candy, is
70 be constructed along the most
modern lines OF stability and utility.
under the able supervision of Captain
Moore, Of the L. S. Engineering
Corps, at present in this city. Three
routes are under consideration for
the new lines: One running west
along the ietty sand reaches; another
almost direct across the mouth Of
the Columbia river, across Sand ISL
and, and thence westward through
Bakers Bay, 10 Fort Candy; and a
third route, from Stevens around
the easterly end OF Sand Island, TO
Fort Columbia and thence rest
through Bakers Bay TO destination.
This last system would give ready
contact with all the forts at the
mouth Of the river and would enhance
the value Of the service; but II Is
said that the FIRST course named is the
one most in favor with the military
men in charge of the improvement.
II Is also reported that the cable
steamship Burnside may figure in the
laying Of this important line, when
the time comes which is likely to be
during April or May next.

The man who eats does so with the
expectation Of being satisfied. To
this end he seeks the best possible

Odd Suit BrouRht-

Suit has been filed in the circuit
court Of clatsop county by G. NJ.
Owen against the Western
Union Telegraph Company, and
the nature Of the case is somewhat
unusual. In his complaint Mr.. Owen
alleys that message was sen,
him from Aberdeen. last October an
nouncing the death for his niece. a
little girl but that for some reason
the message was not delivered to
him until two days later. AS result
he did not have knowledge of her
death and funeral until too late to be
present at the burial. Wherefore
through his attorneys, Smith Broth
ers, he demands damages in the sum
of $500, for the humiliation and
mental anguish that result. Judge
Taylor, acting for the defense, yester-
day filed demurrer. The case Is Of
interest inasmuch as the law usually
does not contemplate the giving Of
damages for mental perturbation. hu-
initiation, or mental anguish, as it is
a difficult matter to weigh such
things in the form of monetary dam
ages. However. damages have been
secured in cases somewhat similar,

Fishery Matters--

Returning from Salem yesterday
Attorney c. }. Curtis brought bach
to this city the FIRST news Of the con.
dition Of the fishery matters as dis.
eussed in committee there. There
were quite a few Astoria watching
out for the interests Of the lower riv.
er country in the proposed fish legis-
lation. For the cannerymen George
H. George and 9. w. Sanborn were
on the ground; for the Fishermen's
Union, H. NJ. Lorntsen, o. j. Set
tenn and Franz Kankkonen; and for
the Seiners & Trappers, Louis Hauffe
and George Kaboth. All Of these
gentlemen met with the joint com
mittee Of the Oregon legislature and
i was virtually agreed that the Ore
gon committee when il met with the
Washington committee in Seattle
should insist upon a closed season
from March IS to May /, claiming
that this would give the chinooks a
chance to reach spawning grounds.
Also that there should be Sunday
closing. but that there would be no
interference with the present gear.
Il Is planned to repeal the two fish
laws of last Spring. They were both
passed by the initiative and left the
whole matter in a tumble that result
ed in harm for all and good 10 none.
