THE ASTORIAN PUBLISHING CO., I WANTED, BOARD AND ROOMS IT 13 feared that unless the regatta committee revives more names and ad dresses of householders who are willing to provide accommodations for thous amls Df people who will attend the re gatta, many of the visitors will have to leave the city before the fete is over, as present indications are that there are not enough hotele and boarding houses in the city to take care of Ihalf the number of visitdra expected to be in attendance. " The suggestion has been advanced that fraternal societies owning their own hall make special provisions for housing of the visiting members ot their orders by placing cots In the halls and those members who are able to take in a limited number of roomers do so. This will go long way towards solving the problem of sleeping accom modations for part of the visitors, Th strangers, men and women who have no friends in the city and do not belong to any of the numerous fraternal or. dei-s will be able to get rooms at the hotels. lit vlow of the jact that ordinarily there is a dearth of sleeping apart ments for rent in this city the sugges tion that thejodge rooms be so arrang ed as to take care of the visitors seems lo bo a good one. It would cost very little to rent the cots necessary ana oea- linen, and the cost of employing wo men to make up the beds and keep the rooms In order would be relatively small. The societies could charge say fifty cents per night for the beds, and would thus clear the entire expense and possibly have a small fund left to turn over to the lodge. The lodges might do worse than call i special meetings to discuss this matter. Meantime, householders are urged to notify the regatta committee of the number of people they can accommo date, and whether or not they are In a position to provide board as well as rooms. IN the apolntment of Frederick Am brose Barker to West Point, Astoria has cause, for luide. There is not a more popular Uby in the city than Mr. Karker. By dint of conscientious work he has qualified for admission to the nation's great military academy. Ke ill undoubtedly acquit himself with conspielous credit,, and la future years may be ranked among the distinguished military students of the country. And whatever' honors Mr. Barker may re- j t Wp in ths career he has chosen, the j r '.me of Astoria, or wnun ne is a na- ; lw son, wi'l always be linked. . j SEATTLE papers say that when the j HAYING inaugurated a crusade hav queen of the labor carnival received tt ;s for its object the clearing of the governor of the. -state- ne inquired or tier , III ms. oesi liuiubl-'u mHMiier, i wunutii who those people are looking at" t' : Which the dignified and stately young j monarch 'with -fill the refinement and j elegance of one to the "manor born" j replied: "Oh, I don't know.

Then the governor looked abashed and did not know what to say to nil In the big gob of silence that followed. MR. Mique Fisher, the baseball mag nate of Sacramento has been getting off a few rods of talk to the reporters In regard to the spelling of his christ ian name. "It Is spelled with a q-u-e" said the ex-patrolman. Also, there is no "c" in his last name. ''I'm not Dutch, and I don't like it. and what's more I won't have if were the new rules laid down to the mfin behind the pencil. The reporter forgot to venture the question if the q-a-e reflected any thing celestial in his nationality.

B. Long, harness maker, employ. ed with John Clark & Son,- 101 Front street, Portland, who resides at 218 Sec ond street, same city, Bays: "Early lat summer I broke out all over with body eczema tetter or itch. I did not know Just what !it was nor what caused its appearance, but I do know that the tor ture I endured was something tierce. I was very mu::h alarmed about it, was anxious -o know what it was and what caused It, I thought the best thing to do was to go to a doctor for treatment. I did so and was treated by different ones but they failed to do me any good When I became the least bit overheat- ed I Just fairly clawed the skin off me Anyone who has nev had anything of the kind kflows nothing at all about It. I was In bad shape when I noticed an advertisement in our paper about Doan's Ointment being a sure cure for such afflictions. I said to myself: 'there's another fake, but I'll try it. It proved to be fill that Is claimed for it.v Less lhan two boxes made a com plete cure in my case. About this time my younger brother was taken with ihe same affliction. A box and a half of Doan's Ointment cured him. I know what I am talking about when I say that Doan's Ointment Is one remedy which can be depended upon."
