Fishing on the river near Asto ria was practically suspended for a couple of hours. The wind died down early !n the afternoon, however, and a heavy shower set in. The Rrltlsh ship Franklnstan arrived In from Nogasnkl yesterday in bal laflt, several days overdue. Much alarm was felt In shipping circles over her delay, and brokers were beginning to speculate ns to re-Insurance. The Franklnstan met with no accidents, however, her slow passage being duo to adverse winds. - H a A touch is enough for cleanliness. That is why it ' lasts so. 11, ii, I'arknr, as administrator of the estate of Fred Deernmn, oV-cawd, has (lied his s-tiiI anual account and re qui at for an order to pay claims.

Mr. Arthur Callan and Mr. Tee aliio are well flttnl In their respective part. The ludl-s In the cast also are lending themselves o the moulding being given them at the rehearsals, and a most clever performance la assured. There has been a big run of salmon In Cluyoquot Sound, according to news brought by the steamer Clayoquot, which returned from the- West Coast yesterday, says the Victoria Colonist The cannery commenced operations on Tuesday last, the boats securing 3,000 fish on one shift.

The Ashland Tidings publishes the statement that Louis Gerber started 300 heal of beef cattle from Brookvale stock farm last Saturday for Montague; their destination Is Sacramento. This is the first lot of beef cattle taken out of Klamath for the season of 1900. Mr. Gerber states that the Klamath county beef will be as good as last year. But stock raisers are not ready to sell for at least thltry lays yet and are counting on last year's prices which, he nays, the market will not Justify, aa two year olds and cows will rate at about $21, wht:h Is a very good figure. Tho regatta finance committee will begin soliciting funds among the peo ple of Astoria this afternoon. Chair mun Richard Pnvel states -hat upon the amount of money subscribed will depend the extent of the affair or whether a regatta will be held at all. In view of the prospect of fine weather d'irtng tho mid-summer season it la believed that there will be no hesitancy on the part of the people of Astoria to BubHcrlbe liberally.

Robert Inman, of Portland; Colonel Dunne, of Portland; Charles Hilton, of Portland: T. C.Tay lor, of Pendleton; H. O. Alexander, of Vancouver, B. C.; S. J. Pembroke and John R.

' Nothing has yet been even of the Nome City, which Is now five days overdue at this port from Cat Nome. The Nm City Is being operated by Graham, Mitchell ac Co., and made her maiden trip about the middle of June. Bhe woa expected here not la ter than Haturlay last, at which time, V. F. Baumgardner, the Portland agent of the company, growing much concerned, communicated with Captain Peterson of the bar pilots, asking him to ke?r a sharp lookout for the ves sel. It is thought to be most proba ble that the Nome City's machinery met with an accident, as It Is compar atively new and might easily get out of order In view of the brief test to which it has been put. Then, too, she might have put in at Dutch Harbor or some other obscure port which Is out of line of direct communication by wire. It Is quite probable that unUns word Is re ceived concerning the Nome City within two or thre days tugs will be sent out from the Sound In search of her. The Seattle Post-Intclllgencer pub Unties an Interview with George T. My ers concerning the fishing situation on the Columbia in which Mr. Myers Is re ported to have said: "Already there Is a shortage of ab;ut (0,000 cases, and the seuson on the Columbia liver Is about half over. The upper waters are fulling rapidly, and many of the wheel are sticking half way out. There Is every Indication that the pack In the Columbia river district will be only about SO per cent, of what it was last year. The canneries are paying 714 cents a pound for Ish, and the cold storage people 8 cents. The price for first grade (all cans Is $1.70 a cae. In tli; lower wf,T the gill-pet nva ! are catching some fls'h, but not In sucK quantities aa a year ego. Fish are be ginning to run In Tugjl sound waters. Borne of the traps. I understand, are finning, but the weatlwr has been so rwijflt that no lifting has U-tn done. A yiur ago toduy 2.5) splendid sock eye salmon ere brought into Seattle, so the season Is luur than a year ago." TO ASSIST NAVIGATION. Cupluln Harts Reports improvements on Rivers and Harbors. The work of improving the rivers ana uaibors in Oregon, which has been In prouress for several months is made the subject of a most favorable report by C'Kptuin Hurts of the federal engi neers. At Coos Bay the north Jetty tram way has been completed, except eight bents. It is expected to complete the tramway entirely this month. Enrock men l is proceeding at the rate ot 15, bOO t j K.OOt tons per month. At Sleueluw the work la well under way. hevrn bents have been added to the tramway, which Is being enrocked. This work is making good progress. Di-.tlglng of all the shoals in Lower Tillamook bay haa been completed, with the exception of one. The dredge Is now engaged In widening the cut through the mud flat opposite Bay City. Aa soon aa this work Is completed, the remaining shoal In the lower bay will be dredged out. When this is com pleted there will be no obstruction to the free passage of vessels In the low er bay. tn Hoquarton slough there are four ahort bents, which will have to be cut off to accommodate the Sue H. Klniore, the new boat now being built for the Tillamook run. Captain Harts expects to have this vork done by the time the Elmore Is ready to run. At the Cascades the work has been Interfered with eomewhat by high wa ter, but good progress is being made. Work has been completed on the north side of the canal at the lower end, and operations have been begun on the other side. The sand blast Is working to perfec tion. The middle and upper gates have been painted as far as high water would permit, and as the water goes down the painters will follow it and then the lower gats will be painted. The way the sand blasts cut off rust and old paint Is a caution. The only trouble Is that It Is hard on the men and removes the skin from their hands and faces. They work bundled up In cloth. s for protection, which is Incon venient at best VICTIMS OF EXPLOSION. Bodies of Moore and Shaw Still Lying at the Morgue, Tha boJles of Engineer Maurice Moore and J. C. Shaw, who were vic tims of the explostxi at the De Force oil factory Wednesday afternoon, ara lying on slabs at the morgue. Not a relative or close friend of the men haa yet appear d to arrange tor their fun erals and burial, and It is quite prob able that both will be burled by the county. Coroner Pohl learned yesterday that Moore had a brother residing In an Arizona town, and telegraphed the foot of Moore's death and asked for Instruc tions as to the disposition of the re mains. Up to a late hour last night no rply had been received. An Inquest on the bodies of Moore and Shaw will be held at the under taking parlors this . lornlng at 10 o'clock. There Is no longer any doubt that Chiis Rentx, who was missing after the explosion at the De Force oil fac tory on Wednesday, was drowned. It Is believed now that Rents waa stunned by the force of the explosion and that he drownel while incapable of assisting himself. A search waa made for his body yesterday without success. An other search will be made today. John Rents, brother of the missing man, arrived in the city last night from Seattle in response to a tele gram from William Bock notifying him of the accident Captain Renti had been engaged on the river for 2t years pii r to his departure for Bcattlo and knows the river thoroughly. He states that he will go out with tha searching party this morning. Captain Rents' Is deeply affected over the loss of his only brother and states that the sorrow h feels over his death will be greatly mitigated If the body can be recovered. REAL ESTATE TRANSFERS.

Moralists are discussing the terrible loss of lite brought about by the Transvaal war. vet here life is sacri ficed for a purpose for an honest prin ciple. It were better to preach agiinst the needless sacriflcs of life. Thou sands of people succumb to ailmen'.i which might easily have been che;k- td In the beginning. Dyspepsia carries off more people tnan are wiiea in war. The use of Hostetter'i Stomach Bitten would save many lives. Constipation may setm a little thing, but It Invar iably develop Into something worse. and the longer It is allowed to run, the harder it is to cure. The Bitters cures Indigestion, constipation, dyspepsia and biliousness, naturally and permanently, without shoeing the system. It Is I good t?r everybody. PERSONALLY CONDUCTED WEEK LY EXCURSION'S.
