Den't of Music, (Formerly of Lelpslg and London.) A ai.'patch to the Astorlan from Aberdeen, Wash., oya: The local fish' ernmen are complaining because of the large number of Oregon men who, they say, have come to tlw harbor and are engaged In fishing, contrary to law Under the law only cltliens of the state are qualified to take out a licnse, the Intention being to preserve the fishing Industry of the state to cltlsens and to exclule non-realdents. A com plaint hna been forwarded to the state fish commissioner, the flshernvn alleg. Ing that ovt 100 of those engaged In f!hng here are doing so without license or the right to secure a license, They demand the enforcement of the law, deeming It of special Importance this year, the salmon catch thua far having fallen to far short of their ex pectations. O dlxpatch from Port Townsend. dat ed Sept. 10, says: The steamer San Pedro arrived from Nome this even Ing with 278 pasengers. The San Pedro sailed Auuust 30, and passenger con firm the reports of the richness cf the Blue Stone discovery. A man by the name of Parker came down on the ves sel. He waa among the first on the ground, and sold his claim for $10,000, and Is on hi way East. Returning passengers report that already winter I setting In. the night being remark ably cold. The ruffian element aided by the darknees of night have become unusually bold, and men are knocked down and robbed nightly .and several cases are reported where victims had lust enough money to pay their fare on the, boats, and while on their way to the vesnis w-ere sandbagged and left deetltute. One of the many picturesque sights on the Seattle water front at the pres. ent time, says the Poat-Intelllgencer, Is the huge government transport Arab, new loading at Arlington dock a cargo of horses, mules and sup plies for the United States army In China. A visit to one of the great ocean carters chartered by the war de partment for this purpose Is always worth the while, and In the case of the Arab there la a picturesque feature not ordinarily found In the fact that the crew of the steamship with the exception of the officer and engineers, WE ARE SELLINQ China, Crockery, Glassware, Lamps, Silver Tlated Ware, Jardinieres, Agateware, Kitchen Ware, AT AWAY OOWN PRICES COMB JUST TO 8EB3.

Bhe will be ready In two or three week, and will follow the Lennox with about 350 head of horae and mule. There are, at present. 700 head of horses and upwards of 1 00 head of mules pastured at Vancouver, awaiting shipment to the Philippine. It will be Impossible to send all of them over on the two steamer. Each vessel will be loaded to Its full capacity, and the balance sent to Seattle for uhlpment on the next steamer to sail from that place. Cap tain Wainw right, who ha been In the Northwest during th past year buy ing horses and niul for the govern ment has been ordered not to purchase any more, end has returned to his sta tion In Chicago. He secured about 2000 animals In that time. The Telegram of lost evening has the following account of the narrow escape of a .Northern I'aclflc train from what might have been a terrible dlsavtei : "Hut for the timely warning of several paMcngere last evening's Northern I'aclflc train would have been In serious wrtck. probably cauvlng the death of the majority of the passengers. The train was crowded with people, coming to the carnival, according to one of the passengers, who resides on the t Side. Whn the cascade tun net had been reached the passenger waited for the frelpht to come up. By aoinc neglect on the part cf one of the tr.idi hands, the patisenger switch was left wide open. As luck would have It. though, several of the passen gers had got ton out of the car during the delay, and wre pacing up and down the track, when one of them, who knew something about such matters, seeing the turned switch, adjusted It mmedlately. He was Just In the nick of time. too. for the freight rushed through half a minute later. Tin pas sengars on the train were unconscious of the terrible darger that they had lust escaped." Details have been received of the sad accident mentioned In yesterday's As torlan by which Emll Erlckson met his death on Monday at the logging camp of Ryan & Richardson on the Walluakl. In getting out a log which had become Jammed he had attached a block to a partially decayed stump or stub and the other to the log and at almost the first strain the stump gave way and was precipitated upon Mr. Erlckson who waa standing by with a double bitted axe in his nana. The The stump struck him upon the right shoulder, face and breast and burled him to the ground. One blade of the axe waa forced into his back. Its full length. Just at the upper extremity of his hip, causing a fearful wound. Some internal Injuries must have resulted, as death waa almost Instantaneous." The remains were brought In to Under taker Pohl' parlors at noon , yester day, where they will remain until the funeral services, which will be conduct ed under the auspices of the Wood men of America at Lewis and Clark at 1 o'clock today. Mr. Erlckson was 30 years of age and a native of Swe den, from which place he came to As toria about ten years ago. He was unmarried and had one brother. Olaf Erlckson. living at Melville. Congressmen Cushman and Jones have returned from a visit to the gov ernment dry dok at Port Orchard on a tour ot inspection, gays the Tacoma Ledger. While there they were the guests of Captain Wyckoff. the engi neer In charge, The main object of their visit was to famlllarlae themselves cmcerntng the workings and require ments of the drydock. At the last ses sion of congress, the Washington rep resentatives succeeded In securing an appropriation of 1317,000, most of which waa devoted to fitting up the machin ery department and providing for cur rent operating expenses. At the next session an, appropriation of not lcs than $1,000,000 will be asked for, and there 1 every reason why this sum should be allowed. That the Port Or chard drydock has been operated un der extreme d-Uflcuities knwn at Washington as well as In this 'state. Ever since the drydock waa construct ed there ha been a shortage In the number of men employed to operate It. because the government failed to make the necessary financial provisions to meet regular requirements. Con gressman Cushman stated yesterday that he had communicated with the naval authorities at Washington re questing them to do all within their power to provide sufficient business for the Port Orchard dock to enable the employment of a regular force of men throughout the year. In his communi cation Mr. Cushmali pointed to the fact that the government drydocks at San Francisco were forced to do more work than they could conveniently dispose of and aaked that a portion of thla extra business be sent to Port Or-1 chard. THE CRIMP QUESTION. The Portland Chamber of Commerce LUct'.ssed It at a Meeting Yesterday, At a nieetlng of the Chamber of Com merce In Portland yterday morning, say the Telegram, the following com munication from Balfour, Guthrie A Co., of that city regarding the extor tionate price charged by the boarding house combination for tailors, wan read; "President Chamber of Commerce, City Dear Sir: We beg to call your attention to the extortionate rate now being charged for auppiylng seamen at thl port, all 'the way from $100 to 1170 per man, and the harassment generally being practiced on ships. We are In receipt of a cablegram from the Shipowners' Association of England, with whom we have previously been In conference on the subject, calling our attention to the matter, and urging that something be done to enforce the law a regards crimps and deser ter. "W need not point out to you the great damage that Is being done by this state of affairs, and we would uige that you do everything In your power to remedy matters. in :aw in enect. a you are no doub aware, are quite adeq-irte for the purpose. If they re only enforced rigidly and proper protection given to shipping generally. "Your line of action, we would there fore suggest, should be towards calling upon the proper offhlals to leave no stone unturned to check the operations of the boarding-house gang, and let ting the ofllcials understand that they will be held respnIble i the bar of piibll-j opinion If they fall to effect a remedy. , "The worst feature of the matter Is thit no such state of affairs exists at any other port on the coast, and a! ready the effect of it Is being found in the Ircreased unwillingness of ship to come here. If this should go on much longer. Portland may find herself ser lousiy damaged in ner position as a shipping port. Your faithfully, "BALFOUR, GUTHRIE & CO." The communication was discussed at some length, and It was agreed that the main difficulty Is with the sailor. The least bad treatment that la shown him Is the ground for a desertion on his part and he Immediately enters undr the banner of the boarding-house gang. A sailor dees not '.are If he has U or 1100 coming to him, he will desert Just the same. The ships are gainers by these desertion and this. In a cer tain way. offsets the excessive charges of the boarding-house gang. The Chamber of Commerce has had thla "crimp" trouble to contend with before, and at one time succeeded In making amicable arrangements be. tween the crimps and the shipowners. Thl arrangement did not stand long, however. The rate agreed upon was not to be more than S55 per man, Competition turned up. however, In the shape of the Astoria boarding-house keepers, and the Portland and Astoria "crlmpa" formed a combination. One condition which makes the mat ter doubly hard to contend with Is that sailors are very scarce at present It was suggested that the shipowners could bring men from Tacoma. where the rate are moderate, but Tacoma has no men to spare at present An other unfortunate feature of the situa tion Is that the produoer haa to pay the added freight rate. VALUE OF MAN'S LIFE. The supreme courts have recently de cided that the life of the average man A man's earnings depend to a great extent upon his health, and It Is al ls worth just what he Is able to earn, ways within his power to Improve his condition. The stomach Is the measure of health and strength. Every man mav be bright active and happy, if his digestion Is normal. If It Is not, Hostetter'a Stomach Bitter will make It so. It puts the digestive organs In condition to properly digest and assi milate food. Try It for constipation. Indigestion, dyspepsia, biliousness, liver or Uldney troubles. There Is nothing Just as good. The genuine has our Private Revenue Stamp over the neck of the bottle. ATTENTION. WOODMEN!
