The wlfii of the Portland oarsman. Gloss, was In the grandstand yesterday when he keeled over and fell Into the water.

His graceful dives from a trapeie hung over the water In front of the grand stand elicited much applause, from the audience. J. A. Geddes and H. Foley, the Cal- Ifornlans who amused the crowd by their burlesque In the water, are fine swimmers. They swam an exhibition race and did the "farmer" act from the trapese, Oeddes has medala of all descriptions for swimming and run ning. The August number of the Northwest Calumet, the official organ of the Red Men, might well be termed a special Astoria edition.

Snodgrass, the photographer, has opened up a branch studio, especially for making stamp photos, In the build ing formerly occupied by the Colum bia Electrical and Repair Company on Bond street. An experienced lady op erator will be In charge. Look out for his regatta souvenir buttons. The water drill of th life-saving crew from Point Adams was one of the very entei'talnlng features of the program yesterday afternoon. The eel erlly with which the crew turned in boat completely over and again righted It without wetting themselves above the waist was well perform" snd gave these who had never seen such an exhibition an Insight Into the arduous work required of a life-saving crew. There has been heard some complain Ing against the regatta committee for the date felts ted for the regatta, since an Investlgatlim of the records of the weather bureau shows that for the last fifteen years we have hod rain at thl time. The public should be Informed that the committee had wisely select d and announced an earlier date but some seekers for cheap notoriety stirred up an agltatlm for a change of lute, and practically forced the com mlttee Into postponing the regatta to this time. Patsy Cardiff, the old-time pugilist, was standing within the grand stand gate yesterday, and wa ordered by U E. Bellg to go outside or buy ticket. Cardiff looked at Bellg for moment, drew his hat down over hi forehead, assumed a "lough" attltul and remaiked. "You think you can run a bluff on me because there's policeman around." A smite then stole over his fi-atures and be went out of the ante. It was only a little side play. "Hklhbe, the Hoot block." as the young boy is familiarly known, was the "whole show" y.-sterday. A plledrlv tr, which was to nave ueen us-i ro high diving exhibitions, was alongside of the dock and FMMh. drllghtrd n mounting to the top, a hciuhl of at leaat CO f-et. and Jumping off Into th wat.rr. It was a perilous art, but was "pie" for Hklbbe. He says he will Jump from the Brooklyn bridge and muko Hlcve llrixlle sithanied of himself when he goes to New York. During an Intermission In the pro gram yesterday afterntsin, Pld Cavlll and Alex I'upe had much sport at the expense of the timid people In the grnndstand. Pape Jumped from the railing of the grand stand Into the wa ter, ar.d after swimming out about 30 yards, yelled that he had a cramp, at the same time throwing up his arms and pretending as If he were drowning, Ills cries attracted the attention of the npM'tators. Women screamed and men yelled. Cavlll dove from the railing an instant later and reached Pape as he was, to all outward appearance, sink Ing for the last time. The eupioscdly exhausted man waa lifted Into a boat containing Fred Wlckman and Ed, Hullock and waa very soon resuscitated by his rescuer. Both then Jumped Into the water and swam ashore. The grittiest hen In America lives over in Aiseo, says tne t-orvaills Times. Her right to be called a brave hen has been tested, and no one who reads these lines will deny that she Is ever likely to shrink from any duty public or private. She la not only i rav hen. but a "strenuous" hen. She Is the property of one of the Hayden brothers. They also own a threshing machine. The latter was taken out of the shed for the first time last week and a small field of grain was threshed, to see that the machine was In good running order. When the Job waa fin Ished the machine was returned to the shed, when, to the amasement of all there In the corner of the separator sat the strenuous hen. 'Under her was a nest of eggs that she was endeavor ing to hatch. She had been on the nest when the machine was taken out, She was there when the belts and pul leys began to whig, when the fan begin to ring ar.d when the riddles began to shake and rattle. The wind from the fan ruflled her feathers and almoet took her breath, but, like the boy on the burning deck, she stayed at her post What her thoughts were when the swift cylinder began to chew up the straw can not be guessed. She ! may have believed herself In the midst of a woman's rights convention or she may have guessed thut the world was coming to an end. When found the hen was unlnlured. .There was dust In her teeth, and a somewhat frighten ed look In her eye, but (the was on the nest. Of the eggs, all were safe save one. A five-hour trial kept Justice Prsw er busy last night, and a mors dls gusted lot of Jurymen than those who saw the night swiftly passing by while they sat route on a hard bench In the little court-room is seldom seen. "Nlx ey" Hobson was accused of stealing, by force, some money from little Wes ley Welch, while they were attending a show on Commercial street on Wed nesday night. Witnesses were called on both sides, but The Interesting fea ture of the trial was the legal tilt be tween Attorney Wlnton for the defence and Attorney Aiken for the plaintiff. By his thorough knowledge of the law and his masterly presentation of argument Mr. Wlnton scored many points, and at midnight tho Jury ren dered a verdict of "not guilty." Among other papers filed at the re corder's office yesterday was one from J. D. McFarlane, granting to the Knappa Coal Company all the coal, oil, natural gas, petroleum. Iron and all other mineral deposits found upon the following property: East one-half of southeast one-fourth and northwest ono-fourth of southeast ono-fourth of section 29, and northeast one-fourth of northeast one-fourth of section 32, township 8 north, range 7 west, a to tal of 160 acres or thereabouts. In ad dition, all necessary ground for dump, sinking of wells and shafts, for con struction of tunnls and for the erec tlon of all necessary buildings and plants that may be required In pros pecting for these product and In mln Ing and removing them. Th company is actively pushing Its Interests and proposes to make Astoria the cheapest fu'l center on the Pacific coast, and hence the greatest shipping' center. U. B. patent to Ole B. Tidslevold was also filed yesterday. It grants th northeast one-fourth of the northwest one-fourth, the west one-half of the northeast one-fourth, and the northwest one-fourth of the southeast one-fourth of section 2, In township 4 north, range west, comprising 1W acres. A 4";d frotn J. D. McFarlane to George L. Hills was also filed. For a consldera tlon tf six hundred dollar It grants the northwest one-fourth of the south east one-fourth and the east one-half of the southeast one-fourth of section 23, and the northeast one-fourth of the northeast one-fourth of faction 32, township 8 north, range 7 west, In all about ICQ acres. RAIN DID NOT BPOIL THE SPORT, Second Day of the Regatta Proved Grand Success. In spile of the rain of yesterday the regatta program was carried out with the exception of a few minor events which were not missed. The grand stand was comfcrtnbly fifed by 3:30, and many hundreds of people lln-d the dock. At 10 o'clock the Judges announced from the Man z-uilta that the first event would be the single shell race for the cham plor.shlp of the coast, and four young, well-muscled athletes who were to com pete In the event were called before the grand stand and Introduced to the audience. Each was given an ovation by their respective admirers, after which th?y rowed to the Judges' boat and aw ulted the shot to start, Patton, and Gloss of the Portland Rowing Club represented Oregon, and Pape and Sternberg were there to represent the Callfornlans. The four caught the water well as the shot was fired. ration, for reasons best known to himself, rowing well out Into the Hream while the other three hugged the shore. It looked to the spectators as If Pat ton had a surprise In store for his opponents and all spectators thought he had the race well In hand, as he came In sight on the home stretch, He and Sternberg were within sight of the grand stand, but Pape and Glosa were nowhere to be seen. Suddenly the missing men shot out from behind the Honthorn warehouse and then came a race well worth see ing. Patton and Sternberg were for gotten. All eyes were turned on the Callfornlan and Oregonian pulling as If for their lives. Pape was leading by half a boat length and Gloss was pulling down on him. Just as Pape crossed the line the shot proclaiming the winner was fired, and Gloss, who was within a boat length fell from his shell Into the water as If he had ben shot Spectators screamed that the man was drowning, but he held onto his shell with his arms and head above the water. Tugs Immediately put out from the wharf to the rescue. The Katie reached him first and assisted him In righting the shell, after which the plucky fellow rowed past the grand stand to the boat house. He waa cheered loud and long for his game nght. According to those who competed for the championship, the title Justly belong to Gloss, as he was well In the lead of Pape when the buoy around which Pape had to turn was reached, Gloss' turning point was at least fifty feet away, because of the buoy hav ing drifted. Even with this disad vantage Gloss regained almost all he had lost when he fell from his shell. The gritty Portlander had trained ust five days for the event, and was using an Astoria boat, which Is sold to be at least forty pounds heavier than the one used by Pape. Should the two men ever race again It Is safe to predict that Gloss will win. Owing to Gloss' misfortune, Stern berg came In second, with Patton third. The start was made at 10:13 and the llnish of the winner was at 10:24 33. Sternberg was two minutes and thirty seconds behind Pape. Pape be longs to the Dolphins, and Sternberg to the Artels of San Francisco. The Junior outrigger skiff singles waa the next event called. George Lewis, of the Alamedas, won, Crlagness, of the Dolphins, second. Start, 10.37-29; fin ish. 10.44-43. and 10.47-03. The start In the senior outrlgy?r skiff was made at 10.55-25. C. G.

ASTORIA CHINESE ASK FOR FAIR TREATMENT. ASTORIA, AusT. 24.-Editor Astorlan: The Evening News, In Its issue of the 23rd Inst., published an article, evi dently Inspired by Mr. Wlnton, attor ney for Wong Luey, who Is now under arrest on a charge of murder for hav ing killed Wong Ark Toy. The article charges that "there Is more behind the hatred which the Chinamen man ifest for Luey than Is apparent on the surface, and It la known positive ly that several of his countrymen, ac tuated by sinister motives, will try to secure his conviction." It Is also stat ed that "the boss Chinaman," at the Booth Packing1 Company owes Luey 3500; that Luey avers that he had 3300 In a Portland bank, which he drew out In small amounts and loaned to the boss Chinaman. It seems strange that a newspaper should publish such, statements with out any facts to substantiate them. There seems to be no good reason why this particular newspaper should vol untarily rush to the defense of Luey and attempt to assign some unknown but "sinister" motive for his prosecu tion, when the plain and undisputed facts are, as established by eye-witnesses, other than Chinese, that he deliberately murdered his victim. We do not however, wish to pre judge Wong Luey or create public prej udice against him. We only wish to mphatlcally repudiate the charge against the Chinese population of this lty. They do not wish Luey convict ed If Innocent, but If he Is guilty, they wish him convicted and punished. Is that heathenish or unnaturalT The murdered man had worked at the Booth Packing Company for fifteen years; was an honest. Industrious and peaceably disposed man, who had never had trouble with any person and who commanded the respect and confidence of all who knew him. It Is surprising that we should deeply regret his un timely death? Wong Luey has not wherever he had resided, succeeded CARBOLDNEUf, Efficient Preservative for Woodwork Ex med to Rot or Decay.

Are not such characters found among other nationalities besides Chi nese? Is It an evidence of "sinister motives" that they are not loved and honored by their countrymen? Now, as to the claim of Luey against the boss Chinaman, that Is a matter between them. We only suggest that Luey has, since his arrest, sued the boss Chinaman for JS3.00 for alleged - . av -iA wages. If he also owea .uuey jw ur any other sun: for money loaned, Is it not reasonable to suppose he would have sued for that at the same time? WONO SING, V70NO GOW. YTEN WA. WHERE PEARL COMES FROM.
