8 EXODUS TO SEACO J VST now all roads lead to Seaside, and the indications are that this pic turesque resort, with Its rugged beauties and natural resources, should enjoy a most prosperous season. Its ac cessibility to business alone is a matter that the average Portlander is obliged to consider in planning his Summer outing. Improved transportation facilities and more accommodating train hours allow him to make the trip in a short time. The seeker after a country home, the Summer vacationist, the eager sportsman, the man with only an occasional "day off," all appreciate the change in train schedule. Of course, the regular cottagers have been down at their places since the taxdy season began, but not until after the Fourth will there be any real parlies or efforts at entertaining. Nightly big bon fires dot the long stretch of sand, and there have been one or two clam bakes and several clamming parties, for the weather has been favorable for this pur suit; hut there have, as yet, been very few things of a social nature. Improvements are noted all along the Bearh. The broad board walk now reaches to the Necanlcum bridge, a great number of new cottages and extensions I on older ones have been built, and the hotels have made improvements. The shell road holds out its attractions as of yore, numerous concessions have been rented and It very much resembles a near-carnival In appearance. The Sum mer population continues to grow. The Influx of cottagers this past week has been very great, and next week will see most of the Summer visitors who come for the season established at the differ ent hotels. All the places are well pat ronized and tfiere Is an air of-bustle and activity that seems to be contagious. The storm blinds are now down from nearly every cottage at the Beach; the hotels are all open, and the bookings for next week are noticeably heavy. Mrs. I. N. Flelschner is occupying her handsome Seaside cottage, and has with her Misses Ella and Mai Hirsch. Johan Poulsen and family will be in the Malarkey cottage this season. Mrs. Poulsen and daughters.

MANY CHANGES AT NEWPORT Numerous Improvements at Summer Resort on Yaquina Bay. -NEWPORT. July 4. Tourists to Newport during the season of 1908 will see a marked change in the appear- JTTLY 5, 1908. UNDERWAY ance of the popular Summer resort. Fifteen new cottages have been built at Nye Creek and many others are In the course of construction. On North Main street, where a whole block of store buildings was burned last Winter, new structures have been erected to take the places of the old ones. The new buildings are much more modern in appearance and the northern half of Newport's main street now looks much more attractive to the Summer visitor than of yore. For the first time in Newport's his tors, its streets are lighted by gasoline lamps. All the dark corners on the sidewalks leading from Newport to Nye Creek are now illuminated. Another innovation is the introduction of two moving-picture shows to the little city's host of attractions. The Acme Stock Company will give regular per formances at the Opera House during the Summer; dances will, as usual, be held both at the Casino, at Nye Creek, and the Opera House at Newport. The skating rink opened Monday evening and is doing a good business. Another attraction which is soon to be opened 'to the public is a large 100,-000-gallon swimming tank. The tank will be owned and operated by F. H. McDonald, a local merchant, and is lo cated directly opposite his place .of business. The water will be changed and heated every day. The old steamer T. M. Richardson has been replaced with a new and mora commodious one, which has been ap propriately christened the "Newport" by her owners. J. B. : Marshall and Captain O. Jacobson.

HACKETT IN DIVORCE SUIT Mary Mannerlng Serves Papers on Her Actor Husband. NEW YORK, July 4. That Mary Man nerlng has brought suit for divorce from James K. Hackett was learned today from Miss Mannering's counsel. Among theatrical folk rumors of such action have been current for some months. The summons in the divorce suit was served on Mr. Hackett early in June, three days before he sailed for Europe. Miss Man- nering engaged counsel about a year ago, but the suit was not begun until it was apparent that there was no further hope of reconciliation. Miss Mannering and Mr. Hackett have not lived together for a year. At the close of her theatrical season a year ago, Miss Mannering took apartments for her self, and when she later went on tour she left her child in charge of a sister, who came from England expressly to take care of the little one. It Is understood that the complaint will name more than one co-respondent. Mr. Hackett first met Miss Mannering when he was leading man at Daniel Frohman's Lyceum Thea ter, and was appearing as Bruce Leslie in "The Courtship of Leoni." . They were married May 2. 190", but the marriage was a secret until the next January. SCHOONERS IN COLLISION Lumber Carrier Zampa Figures in Two Martne Accidents. SAN PEDRO. Cal.. July 4. -The Zam pa,' a sailing schooner from San Fran cisco, laden with lumber, while three hours out late last night in a heavy fog, was struck by the Saginaw, a steam lumber schooner.

The Daisy Freeman towed the Zampa into port. No one was hurt and the total damage will not exceed $700. The Midsummer Fiction Number. The July Sunset contains some rare fiction. Among the contributions are: "The Siamese Opposites," by Bailey Mallard; "Careless." by Blllee Glynn: and "With Feet of Clay," by Alfred Daymon Runyon. Blow Will Kill Gambler. RENO, Nev July 4.
