GETTING DOWN TO BUSINESS.

Gradually the civic organism Of th'
City Of Astoria Is shaping itself and
getting down to business; its officers
lcouncil. commissions and departments
lare lining out for the work Of the year
land very soon the new records will
lbe formed and the new reports
looming in to the people who are
responsible for their creation and
existence. Right at this propi-
tious moment the Morning Asto-
'rian desires to say . word to city and
staff, that may be Of use and comfort
in time to come.
This paper, by right Of its age in
fluence, and inspiration, intends 10
give instant and honest credit to eve
ry man in public life here who does
and says anything commendable; 1t
win be the quickest to give frank
acknowledgment to each man and de-
partment for the best service they ex
emplify and see to il that such work
is not forgotten; these things it viii
do gladly, without regard to partizau-
ship, person, or prompting: II does
not always expect to agree with, nor
understand exactly, the causes, and
actions that ensue, but it viii try to
fathom everything closely and clearly
and then do justice.
Primarily, this is the peoples paper
As such II has its duties; the doing Of
them may not always be exactly 10
the liking Of those whom it is called |
upon to criticize. But if the occasion !
for criticisms presents itself, the duty |
will not be gainsaid nor neglected; and |
what IT shall do in this relation will |
be done more for the common good |
Of the city, than as against the person |
or persons responsible for the stric-
ture. Like the paper, the servants Of
the public must remember they are
in the open; they have not the same |
rights as the private citizen when it |
comes to published censure; that is
one Of the exigencies Of official life, |
and it is made bit more digestible by |
the fact that their justification may be |

lis undeniabie, as this masterpiece Of
American playwriting has broken all
records in point Of financial returns,
having played over 500 nights to ca
pacity business. Two hundred and
iity-eight presentations were given
at Henry MilIer's Princess Theatre to
standing room only last season. Last
season Mr.. Miller secured Days
Theatre, a considerably larger house,
and inaugurated the second year Of
"The Great Divide" on Broadway
with the result that the receipts were
limited only by the seating capacity

one Of the largest theatres in New
York The entire production, with
the superb scenic effects and acces-
sories, viii be given here precisely as
presented during the phenomenal
metropolitan run Of Mr. William
Vaughn Moody's really great Ameri-
can play.

BABES IN ToYLAND."

Babes in Toyland" comes to the
Astoria Theatre Saturday night. Glen
Marlborough and Victor Herbert's
beautiful extravaganza is enjoying
wonderful success. A splendid com
pany numbering 70 people is carried
and the production is more beautiful
than that shown last season.
Babes In Toyland" amuses and
delights everyone who sees it. The
tot Of three is held captive by the
sight Of the children lost and per-
plexed in the heart Of Toyland; the
grown person is charged by the
coruscating humor and satire Of
Glen MacDonough. TO the lover OF
music, Victor Herbert's work always
appeals and in Toyland IT is entranc-
ing. No lesser authority that Hume
ker declared that "Toyland March"
was the equal Of Gounod's March Of
the Marionettes." The scenic effects
are dazzling, as we'll as amazing, in
the originality and effectuality Of
their design.

THE THEATRE EPISODE.

The simple fact that the chimney,
or one Of them, Of the Astoria Theatre
was III such condition as to warrant
a still alarm for the fire department
daring the performance presented By
Miss Roberts on Wednesday night, is
startling Of itself, to every one who
enjoyed the play, unconscious Of the
uglier fact; but the lesson inseparable
from the incident is that Of the poise
and judgment used by those who we're
next to the situation and who kept il
from the audience. II was thorough
~ well disposed Of; the calf being an
swered by Fire Chief Foster and two
OF three aides, and the flaming chin
ney was drenched in hurry without
sign or sound Of the call or the work.
Mr.. Hanlin is to be commended for
his command Of threatened situa-
tion, as are those who were in his
confidence behind the curtain.
The danger in such cases is not
from fire itself; but from the animal
istic terror Of the people. The mad
dened rush for safety from danger
apparent, however remote; the mer
CHESS sacrificing Of humanity, BY hu.
nanity, in the stampede; and the sus-
ceptibility Of the masses to fright in
which sex, age, everything is forgot
ten but self. The writer was once in
an ordeal Of the kind, in the burning
Of the French theatre, on Fourteenth
street in New York City, and speaks
by the card in commencing the invala
able action Of the manager and the
troupe in this local incident, and in
urging the immediate sweeping Of the
chimneys Of the building against
similar, and less fortunate occurrence.

Narrow Escape of Filipino Sailors
From a Wrecked Vessel.

NdrroW escape or Filipino SdHorS
From a Wrecked Vessel.
Capt. Carlos Krebbs, commander of
the steamship Dalupaon, reports that
last Sunday afternoon about 8 o'clock,
while en- route from Turela to Iligan,
the ship sighted four Filipinos cling
ing to a submerged banca surrounded
by a special school of sharks, which,
even after the vessel had come along
side, persisted in lowering about the
banca.
The four men upon being picked up
related terrible tale of suffering and
agony. They stated that they had left
Basoc, Negros, bound for Barili, Cebu,
and that On Saturday they ran into
heavy weather which caused the
banca to fill, sinking to the waters
edge and washing away their food and
drink.
Shortly after that the weather
cleared, leaving these poor mariners
under the glare of tropical sun. Then
the sharks appeared and to the agony
Of thirst and pangs of hunger was
added the terrific fate of becoming a
morsel for a sharks tooth.
They had despaired Of relief and
every vestige Of hope was gone when
they sighted the Dalupaon.
