GDSTA RIGA AND
ROANOKE ARRIVE
Two Coastwise Steamships
Reach the Harbor at Al
' most the Same Time.
WRECK SIGHTED BY BOTH
While Knterins Columbia River the
IVtcr Iredale Is -Seen on Beach
Off Point Adams Light Roan
oke Sails Tomorrow Evening.
Two coastwise steamshios arrived up
Inst evennlg and berthed at their respect
ive ilcmk.. and each reports sighting the
British ship PeteT Iredale ashore oft the,
Columbia River jetty. The vessel was to
tally dismasted and probably drifted
usliore without beinjr able to assist herself
in tho efTort to sheer off.
The North Pacific Steamship Company's
liner Roanoke was the first' vessel to ar
rive up, and Captain Dunham reports ex
cellent weather all the way until the Co
lumbia River wa reached, when his ves
sel encountered a heavy gale which pre
vented him from entering Wednesday
evening.
Thin delay, together with the mishap at
Kureka on the down trip, when the steam
er stuck fast on a sandbar in the harbor
ut that place while trying to avoid an
outgoing schooner, has caused the Roan
oke to be two days behind her schedule
time. This is something that has not hap
pened the vessel for many months, for
she has always been on schedule, or at
least reached Portland in time to depart
on Wednesday evening every two weeks.
The Roanoke brought 87 passengers, most
of whom are from Sun Francisco. She
also has a full cargro of general freight
from Sun Pedro, San Francisco and Ku
reka. She stopped at Astoria for two
hours to discharge some freight from Ku
reka destined for that place.
The Costa Rica, Captain Mason, also
sighted the dismantled Peter Iredale
ashore off the Jetty, and her offliajrs state
that the Britisher is probably a total
wreck. The Cosia Rica came in over the
bar at the same time as did tire Roanoke,
loth vessels waiting outside for the heavy
mlst and fog to clear and steered for the
entrance at a little before 8 o'clock.
The oflicers of the Costa Rica, report
that the new rudder for the steamship
Columbia was due to reach San Francisco
tho day their vessel sailed, and -that the
San Francisco & Portland Steamship Com
pany expected to have the palatial pas
senger steamer on the run by the tirst of
the month. When the Columbia resumes
operation the Costa Rica will probably
apply for a passenger license, and the two
vessels will furnish accommodations" for
the travelers who desire to make the trip
to and from tho Hay City by the water
route. The Costa Rica will be discharged
as rapidly as possible, and will sail on the
return trip with a full cargo Ionday even
ing. Tho Ilarracouta, of the same line,
left last night with a full cargo of mis
cellaneous freight for San Francisco.
The work of unloading the steamer
Roanoke will he rushed today, for Cap
lain Dunham desires to get away tomor
row night in order to make up some of
tho time lost on the last voyage.
CAl'TAIX ENTERS PROTEST.
Commander of l'rench Bark Sully
Objects to Tonnage Charges.
ASTORIA, Or.. Oct. (Special. Cap
tain Rio. of tho French bark Sully, filed
a protest in the Custom-House today
against the lines of and $500, respect
ively, recently imposed on the vessel by
Collector of Customs Cnrnahan for failure
to present consular bills of health from
Ja;Kin or clearance papers from either
Japan or Victoria on her arrival at this
port.
Tin protect, which is in the nature of
an afthla.vit signed by Captain Rio, statea
that while at Yokohama on September 3
he received orders from his owners to pro
ceed to Royal Roads. He procured bills
of health and a Japan clearance and then
proceeded to Royal lioads. On arrival
there he received orders to proceed to the
Columbia River. His bills of health, pro
cured in Japan, were taken up by the
quarantine officer at Victoria and he pro
cured others from the American Consul
there and presented them at the Astoria
Custom-House.
With the protest filed a clearance
from Japan for Victoria Captain Rio
asks that the lines be remitted for the
reason that when the vessel left Japan
stie cleaved for Royal Roads, Victoria, but
her future destination was unknown; also
the bills of health were out of his pos
session when he arrived here, and the
clearance was with other papers. The
protest will he forwarded to the depart

LONGSHOREMEX'S STRIKE
THREATENED AT TACOMA.
IS
Stevedores Will Refuse Request for
Increase of Wages From 40 to
50 Cents an Hour.
TACOMA, Wash., Oct. 25. (Special. )
Although no answer has beei given by
the stevedores to the Longshoremen's
Vnion, which recently asked for an in
crease in wages, to become effective next
Thursday, it can be stated authoritatively
that the request will not be granted.
The pay of longshoremen for working
general cargo is 40 cents an hour and
50 cents an hour for overtime. They ask
50 cents an hour and 75 cents for over
time. McCabe & Hamilton v increased the
wages of the grainhandlffrs for stowing
wheat in vessels 10 cents an hour October
1. This raise was given voluntarily and
before the longshoremen made the re
quest. Captain McCabe, of the stevedoring
firm, says that the work on wheat steam
ers is harder than that on the liners
carrying gfneral cargo and naturally
worth more.
There is a strong prospect that the
longshoremen will strike, and if they do
it is not impossible that the other water
front workmen, including the longshore
men hundlmg grain, will be called out.

DEAD
Well -Known Seafaring Man lfisbcs
Away at Sea.
Captain Pritchard, master of the British
ship Blythswood, which is well known in
the local harbor, having taken a cargo of
lumber from Portland to Hai Pong,
China, last Winter, died, at sea last Tues
day, when his veasel was off Cape Flat
tery on her way to Puget Sound.
The Blythswood was one of the most
familiar of the deep sea craft visiting the
local port In the last few years, and
previpus to her last voyage to China, she
had taken a cargo of lumber from here
to South Africa. -
The late captain has a host of friends
here who deplore his untimely end and
expressions of condolence were frequent
among the exporting firms yesterday.
Captain Pritchard has been away from
his home in Canarvon. Wales, where his
wife and family reside, for over five
years, and previous to his last voyage out
of this port, he Ftated to a friend, that
unless the Blythswood were ordered to
England soon, he would resign, but the
grim reaper stepped in just as the longed
for trip was about to take place, for the
Blythswood is scheduled to load wheat on
the Sound for the United Kingdom.
He visited Portland "on many diiterent
occasions, having held commands of ves
sels that were regular callers here during
the past 2rt years. He is a member of the
Masonic Order, having Joined the New
castle, X. S. W., loifee many years ago.

White People Throng
Chinese Josshoisse
Oriental Are Outnumbered at
Heathen Ceremonies of the Har
vest Festival. Which Ends Today.
WHITE "worshipers' at the harvest
festival ceremonies in the Chinese
jasshouse, last,. Evening, were more num
erous than Orientals. The heathens had
difficulty In conducting their services on
account of the throng of white people
which crowded and jostled about the
place of worship. It was rather a meager
band of Chinese which was on hand to
honor the joss, although the attendance
was greater than on previous occasions.
Many Portland Orientals claim to have
abandoned the heathen gods but, never
theless they do not fail to shuffle down
to the josshouse and emit a heathen
prayer or two just In case the old joss
may be right after all.
Last night the priests from San Fran
cisco kept up hideous vocal wailings and
the beating of torn toms In front of the
joss until ater rrildnight. They did
enough wjrk to provit'le for the salvation
of all Chinatown, if work counts for any
thing in such matters.
Today will brisg the harvest festical to
a close. Tonight Gum Ji, chief of staff
to the Chinese clevil. will be burned in
effigy and his spirit run out of town,
after which the Chinese may settle down
secure from molestation by the spirit of
evil during the next year.

DRIVES ON ISLAND
Barkentine Skagit Wrecked on
Vancouver's Rocky Coast.
CAPTAIN AND COOK . LOST
Infesavers Refuse to Respond on
Account of Small Wages, and
Scene of A'alencia Wreck
Claims More Victims.
VICTORIA, B. C, Oct. 25. The barken
tine Skagit. 443 tons, from Port Gamble,
drove ashore this morning on the Van
couver Island coast, close within a few
miles from whare the Valencia disaster
occurred, and Captain Rose and cook,
name unknown, were drowned. Others
reached the shore in safety, although
some were injured as a result of hard
ships and were succored by David Logan,
the lineman, who did such excellent work
during the aftermath of the Valencia dis
aster. They were taken to his house at
Clocse and clothes and hot food was pre
pared by Mrs. Loean. .
The Skagit was bound from San Fran
cesco, which port she left October 9 for
Port Gamble, and encountered heavy fog
off the entrance to the straits. She was
drifted toward the Vancouver Island
coast in heavy southwest weather, with
a landward swell following the subsidence
of the wind and heavy fog obstructing
the land.
The vessel was in the breakers before
the crew were aware of the danger. When
the survivors reached shore Logan telephoned-
the news of the wreck to Pat
terson, the light-house keeper at Cape
Beale, the message being misunderstood
in transit, with the result that a tele
gram was sent to the Marine Department
to the effect that a large steamer was
ashore. The receipt of this message, soon
followed by the news that the wreck
was that of a barkentine caused much
commotion.
The life-boat bell was tolled, but none
of the crew responded. .The salvage
steamer Salvor, which is kept lying at
Ksquimault with steam up. for such
emergencies, -was promptly despatched
and the Government steamer Quadra wa's
ordered from Bamtield Creek to the scene.
The life-boat is still lying in harbor here
and none of the crew responded.
This results from the recent resignation
of the life-boat captain and crew because
the Government's faiiure to provide a
permanent salary, .instead of remitting
amounts to a maximum of $5 per month
paying for the time spent in drill twice a
month. Nothing could have been accom
plished, however, had the crew been or
ganized. There is a strong landward
swell and it is expected the barkentine
will break up. The scene has been the
graveyard of many vessels, notably, Va
lencia, Uncle John,- Janet Cowan, Ata
lanta. Vesta and other craft, some of
which lost many of those on board. Some
of the1 wreckage of the Vesta and Uncle
John is still visible not far from where
the Skagit was lost.
The barkentine Skagit is a total wreck.
She struck the rocks at 4 A. M. and is
now pounding to pieces.
The survivors include mate and seven
men.
The cogk of the lost barkentine Skagit,
wrecked on the Vancouver Island coast
near Cloose, died a hero. He was attempt
ing to rescue 'Captain Rose, who was an
old man, when both lost their lives.

ANCIENT SHORTHAND.
Greeks Used Tachygraphy 2,000
. Years Ago to Report Cicero.
Exchange.
Shorthand is so closely associated with
the hurry and rush of modern business
that it is startling to think oX it having
been in use among the ancient Greeks and
Romans; Yet there seems to be no doubt
that the orations of Cicero were com
mitted to paper with as much skill and
rapidity as the modern stenographer can
boast. .
Just how old the system of abbreviated
writing is which, the ancient Greeks called
tachygraphy it is impossible to say. Xen
ophon is believed to have used it in tak
ing notes of the lectures of Socrates,
which would take It back to the fifth cen
tury before Christ. This Is disputed by
some authorities, but there seems to be
no doubt about its use in the first cen
tury. The development of shorthand was due
especially to Marcus Tullius Tiro. Born
in Latium in 103 B. C, Tiro, who was a
slave, was brought up with Cicero, who
was some years his junior. Freed, he be
came Cicero's secreta-;v, and in this ca
pacity aided him greatly. In the famous
trial of CatiMne fi3 B. C), tne steno
graphic rapidity of Tiro. was at its height.
In the first century before Christ a dis
course of Cato Uticensis, according to
Plutarch, was taken down by shorthand
reporters.
Early in the third century Anno Domino
is found the term semeiograph (steno
graphic character) used by the Greek ora
tor. Flavius Philostratus.
Origon, of Alexandria (185-254 A. D.V
noted his sermons down in shorthand, and
Socrates, the ecclesiastical historian of
the fourth century, said that parts of the
sermons of St. John Chysostom were pre
served by the same process. .
The shorthand that they used was a
form of writing in which each word was
represented by a special sign. The letters
of the alphabet, with modifications, con
nected so as to admit a great rapidity of
execution, formed the elements of these
characters.
Manilius, who was a contemporary of
Cicero, Vergil and Horace, mentions it in
verse. He says:
In shorthand, skilled, where little marks
comprise
Whole words, a sentence in a single letter
lies.
And while the willing hand Its aid affords.
Prevents the tongue to fix the falling words.
OREGON RAFTING CO. SUED
Alleged That Carelessness Led to
Death of J. S. Stoddard.
William 1j. Harden has sued the Ore
gon Rafting Company in the Circuit Court
for $5000 damasres for injuries received
by John S. Stoddard, deceased, -whilein
the employ of the company. Harden is
the administrator of the estate of the
late John S. Stoddard, who died July "0
in Cowlitz County. He was employed by
the Oregon Rafting Company as a loco
motive engineer and July 29 while at
wark he received injuries which it is
alleged directly caused his death the fol
lowing day.
In the complaint the Oregon Rafting
Company is charged with negligence and
carelessness, the allegation being made
that had proper caution been exercised
by the company the accident would not
have occurred. A. J. Bukowsky, C. S.
Richardson and S. H. Bruber are attor
nev. for the plaintiff.
Tonic Iron
Why do we put it in
VTNOL?
Because cod liver oil lacks
just one ingredient the blood
needs tonic iron.
So, in taking Vinol, you get
two tonics in one.
All the medicinal elements
found in the cods' livers and
their .oil, and tonic iron added.
This makes Vinol the finest
body builder and strength
creator we have ever sold.

DR WILLIAMS' PINK PILLS SAVED
MRS GREEN'S LIFE.
She Gained 26 Pounds in Weight and
Can Now Walk and Work.
General debility is a term that corera
a multitude of cases where there is no
acute disease, yet the patient continues
to lose strength and the doctor's medi
cines have no apparent effect. This is
the decline that leads to death if means
ere not fouud to check it. lu a great
majority of cases Dr. Williams' Pink
Pills will check it and restore health and
strength because they actually make new
blood and so send renewed vitality to
every organ and tissue of the body.
Mrs. S. A. Green, whose address is
Box 29, R. F. D. No. 4, Franklin, Ga.,
says : "For three and a half years I
suffered with weakness and nervous
ness, complicated with stomach trouble.
At times I was confined to my bed for
periods ranging from three weeks to two
months and was under the physician's
care most of the time for three years. I
do not know the cause of my trouble but
I was prostrated with weakness and, al
though I took a great deal of medicine,
nothing seemed to give me strength. At
times my stomach hurt me something
fearful and my head often troubled me.
I wns sleepless and wnat sleep 1 dia get
did not refresh me.
" Wlllen I begnn taking Dr. Williams'
Pink Pills, I weighed but 104 pounds.
I knew I was so bad that a few doses
would not cure me aud I had patience.
Soon the pills began to give me strength,
my biood got in better condition, I could
sleep well nt night and help some with the
housework. Now I weigh 130 pounds and
think nothing of walking half a mile.
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills have done won
ders for me and the neighbors all know
this statement is true."
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills actually mak
new blood. That is all they do, but they
do it well. They don 't act on the bowels.
They won't cure any disease that is not
caused by bad blood. They cure anaemia,
rheumatism, headaches and many forms
of weakness in the most direct manner
and, as the nerves depend upon the blood
for nourishment, ;hey strike at the root
of such diseases as neuralgia, sciatica,
partial paralysis and have been usf;d
with the greatest benefit, even iu ca,es
of locomotor ataxia.
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are sold by all
druggists, or will be sent by mail, post
paid, on receipt of price, 50 cents per box,
six boxes ?2.50, by the Dr. Williams Med
icine Co., Schenectady, N.Y.
