Vesterilay morning the queen of the ri'ioitu, In r maid of honor and ihe nut of her suite were In attendance at the at-r sports. The Columbine was bi orded at the O. R. A N. dock and Kteaioed to the grandstand. As the Columbine drew up to the wharf, all vessel In the river blew their whls ties and th band played the nation al air. After the aquatic rport w-re finished the party again boarded the Columbine and wa taken to the O. R. & N. dock, whr carriage were In waiting. Preceded by a band, the pro cession passed up Commercial street snd through the principal trets of the city. A lively, one-sided mix-up occurred last evening In front of a commission house cn Bond street. Two gambler from Portland, w-ho had been drink ing too heavily of Astoria bug-Juice, were Inclined to Join tho powers In the war against the Boxtrs In China, so they assaulted a couple of Chinamen. fhe trouble began near the I. R. & N. dock and one of the dock hands stop ped the scrap. The gamblers, however, were not peaceably Inclined, so follow ed th Chlnamn to the street and rtruck them a number of hard blow. One of the Chinamen had his nose brok- n and thf sidewalk looked as If It had been frescoed with vermilion. The uninjured Chinaman lan for the police, but some friends of the gambler help ed them escape and they took the rlan for Portland, before the officer could catch them. The steamer Canby being laid up for repair, the Intention waa to cut off the boat for Ilwaco, making connection with the 8easlde flyer. A large crowd came down from Portland to spend Sunday at the North beach, and when It waa learned that there was to bo no boat to carry them the" crowd were highly distrusted with the com- jpany furnishing such poor service. It was Dually determined to run the Nah cotta over to Ilwaco late In the even ing, but most of the passengers had made arrangements with the captains of several of the gasoline launches tied up near by. When it was seen that the majority of the crowd Intended to go on the launches the representatives of the transportation company threat ened to have the landing cf the party at Ilwaco prevented by the company at that point. The captain of one of the launche said he would carry his passengers ashore on his back If he could not land them otherwise. It could not be learned up to the hour of going to press whether or not the party were refused a landing place. Four sailors from the British ship Cedarbank were taken from that vessel last night by Sheriff Llnvlllo and Con stable Kelly. The men are charged with larceny committed In a dwelling, the crime having been committed In Portland. Their names are: Geo. Jef fries, Ole Thomasson, A. Norbln and N. Johanscn. The case Is one that will take much good Judgment to decide. It seems that the men were recently released from Jail In Portland after serving fourteen days for desertion. They claim that they were, treated un fairly by their counsel, but forgot the matter and were ready to return to their work. After the Cedarbank left Portland a boarding house keeper claimed that some blankets had been stolen from him and charged the four men with the crime. An officer came down to this city last night and swore out warrants for their arrest in Justice Brower's court. Constable Kelly and Sheriff Llnvllle went out on the Triton and served the paper on the men. The party was accompanied aahore by Deputy United States Marshals Mayger and Roberts, who were put on the ship at Portland for the purpose of keeping sailors from deserting. They are In charge of. tho men and had to come ashore with them. The case was call id In Justice Blower's court lato last night and many complication have arisen. Th men were In charge of tho deputy marshals, who had an op'-n or der from the United State court to dellyer thtm to tha captain of he hj;. When the warrant wa crved tte marshal showed their paper but the prisoner Were taken from the ship despite their proteat. Marshal Rob ert served notice on tho court that the men acre hi prisoner. The ques tion of Jurisdiction between a Justice and I'nlted State court then came up. It will be argued Tuesday afternoon at 1 o'clock. FIELD SPORT RESULTS. No Record Broken Multnomah Shows Up Well.

Th Northwest record I held by the winner of this event, but the ground waa too soft to permit him to go after his mark. During an Intermission, ten small hoys were brought out In the field, their hands tied behind them and giv en half a pi! each to devour. This event was the most exciting of the meet. Ths favorites were cheered and urged on. but the crusts were not the kind mother used to make. Albert Purdy, his face and hair filled with cherries and dough, was announced as the winner.

Yesterday' water sports drew a laree crowd, much larger than the preced ing days. The weather waa all th could be desired and the and neighboring dock were crowded. i ne nrst race, tha senior vs. the In. termedlate barge crew for the coast championship waa a well-conteeted one. inree San Francisco clubs, the Dol phins, Alaniedas and Ariels. were ren- resented. Near the turning point the Alamedas drew away from their rivu and were not headed, finishing two lengths ahead of the Ariels. The Dol phins were three lengths behind when the shot wa fired for the finish. C. and F. Ayers. of the Alamedas. were the only entries in the oiftrigger skiff race. It was won by the latter. The crew race between sailors nt th Mansanlta and Columbine waa oulte exciting. An Intense rivalry has ex isted between the crew since the first time they met here. The Manxanlta boys won by two boat-lengths. This Is the winning crew's third victory over their rivals. In the double pleasure bout Alamedas won by two lengths from Gloe and Patton, of Portland. The consolation race for slne-le cni. lers was between Gloss and Patton. both of Portland. Gloss, who has been iult unfortunate since comlnsr here had his usual bad luck, an outrigger breaking before the first half mile ua. covered. Patton finished and was awarded the medal. NEWS ABOUT STAMPS. An Innovation In the postal service which Is sure to bo of great conven ience Is a plan lately adopted of fur nishing stamps In little books, with wax sheete between them. The gov ernment Is to charge one cent addi tional to the amount- of stamps con tained therein, and It is now estimat ed that the profit on these books will amount to 3200,000 per annum. It is also estimated that the sum paid for the Private Revenue Stamps placed over the top of the bottles containing IIos tetter's Bitters very nearly equals this. Tho Bitters is a reliable remedy for constipation, indigestion, dyspepsia. biliousness, liver and kidney troubles. It may be depended upon to cure stom ach disordtrs, having done so for the past fifty years. CONVENT OF HOLY NAMES. For boarders and day pupils; Astoria, Oregon.
