CHANCE FOR OCEAN RACE
Columbia and Whittler Depart'
jkn. at the Same Time.
There promises to be an interesting
race down the coast between the it earn
hip Columbia and the tank steamer
Whittler,' which left out yesterday at
the iwme hour. The Whittler is loaded
with her unique cargo of water. Bhe
is said to be a very speedy vessel and
capable of glvUg the Columbia a good
run down the coast to Ban Franelsoo.
There Is no possibility that the Colum
bia will permit any common tank steam
er to wrest from her the laurels she
has won on the Astoria-Ban Francieco
run and a brush is looked for. Both
vessels were well loaded when they de
parted yesterday and conditions gener
ally were favorable for fast time.

HERMAN WISE
The Rdisbls Clothier
Sols Ajtnt for AttorU .
The campaign 'or reerulta in the de
partment of the Columbia is on and
frorj many posts are being sent out
special recruiting otTlceii to enlist men
preferably those from the rural dis
trict because of their better physique
iuid habits. General Funston has
aulhoi-lsid the post commander at
Vancouver to detail non-commissioned
officers for enlistment duty, their men
to be sent to the garrison there to fill
two battalions of Infantry that are at
present badly needing men.
Two or three of the Immense blasts of
giant pnwder are to be et oft! at Bugby
quarry shortly. In each Instance (0 tons
of powder will be exploded. The moun
tains of mks will rise Into the air, and
then settle down with deafening roar.
For several days past arrangements
have been under , way to set off the
blasts, and things are, now about in
readlneaa. .
Great care is exercised by the men in
placing these monster blasts, for a pre
mature explosion would result In many
fatalities. Long tunnels are run inb
the mountain sides.these being connect-
i with cross tunnels.. The main tun
nels extend to the earth for hundreds of
feet, and the explosion Is scarcely
heard. The explosion of one of the
aMs creates a veritable earthquake;
the mountain of rock sways majes
tically for a moment, and then, with a
crah that can be heard for miles, the
great mass of rocks comes tumbling
down. Tens of thousands of tons are
blasted out 'n this manner.
The blasts now to be set off will de
termine the value of the 'Bugfoy quarry.
The rock is of excellent quality a far
as the men have worked, and it Is ex
pwtwi that the quality and quantity
will prove .equally as satisfactory far
ther south from the river. Only the
monster blasts will, however, give the
oflloirs of the Northwest Contructkn
Company an accurate idea of what
they may expect fcreafter In getting
out rock for the big Jetty at the Colum
bia's mouth.
At tie present time the company to
furnishing 1200 tons of rock dally to
the Jetty, but operations will shortly be
carried ou much more extensively.
Major Ungfitt haa visited the Jetty and
the Bugby quarry and is quite well
satisfied with the progress being made.
He asvs the rock is all that could be
desired, although he hopes the' quanti
ty will soon be Increased.
The work of extending the Jetty
tramway has been suspended for the
winter, and the attention of the en
gineers will now be given up to filling
that portion already completed. All the
rock received during the winter months
will be dumped into the sea, so as to
suppjrt the woodwork and strengthen
it sufficiently to withstand the usual
storms thit prevail during the winter
It Is expected that the tramway will
be saved font destruction in this man
ner. The transportation of rock, by
rail enables the engineers to make
more substantial progress, nowever.
and better reuults arc looked for than
during past years.
