The Nelson Is the vessel thai left this port "lumber laden and waa abandoned by her crew after being nearly wrecked. She waa first taken In tow by the Aurilla and was later picked up by the Edith. A. F. Flgel. the man of the hour in Portland, visited Astoria some years ago as a delegate to the Epworth Keague convention. The friends he made upon that occasion stoutly aver that Flegcl "can do no wrong." and are confident that If the resolution for In- vestlcatlon, shelved because of a "tech nical flaw," had gone Into effect, the result would be that the outspoken councilman would be fully cleared of the charges that have been imputed aualnBt him. ; Tomorrow morning the reserved seat sale open at Griffin's book store for James Nell and hla magnificent corn- nan y In the romantic drama, "A Creri- tleman of France."

Suit to recover money alleged to have Veen lost at faro bank and crape has been filed in the state circuit court by Rugoiie Farley against , the Portland Club, Peter Grant, Jack, firant. Harry Dale, Nate Solomon and I Sullivan. The amount lost is alleged to have been 1600, and Farley sues to- recover $1200 under a statute which allow a person to rH'ver double the sum lost at a Ktmbllng i;ame, The Grants. Dale and other defendants are stated in the compla'nt to be the owners and pro prietors of the Portland Club, and Far lev is said to have lost $600 at the place between November 1 and November 15. As a member of the recent commis sion, delegated by this state to confer with the Washington committee during the last session of the Washington leg islature, looking to a harmonious pol icy regarding the salmon fisheries of of the two state on the Columbia, Hon. Frank Davey takes much interest in the matter and referred to the subject while in the city yesterday. Mr. Davey said that the trouble betwwen the state is occasioned by a difference of opinion regarding the operation of traps an wheels, Washington favor ing them while Oregon is working for their abolishment. Another discordant feature is the Sunday closing law. In Mr. Davey's opinion, committee of rep resentatlve fish men of the two states should be officially appointed, with the understanding that they meet and set tle the subject on a compromise basis "It Is necessary," said Mr. Davey, "that the two states " work in unity, and, aa their needs are about identical there should be no especial difficulty in effecting harmonious relation that would endure," A RECORD GIRL BABY Infant That Arrived at the McMul , len Home Ust Night Weigh Seventeen Pounds. HEALTHY AND WELL-FORKED Is Easily the Biggest Uaby Ever Born la Astoria and One of the Largest Girls ) Ever Uoro. On of the biggest girl babies on re cord was born In Astoria laat evening to Mr. and Mrs. J. Walter McMullen. who reside at fit Eleventh street. The newcomer weighed 17 pounds. Dr. A A. Finch, the attending physician. state that the baby to by far the larg est he has ever seen, and Inquiry among other physicians elicited the in formation that Mtos. McMullen out weigh any other child ever born In Astoria. Th "little one" Is the picture it health and its mother is likewise getting along nicely. Mrs. McMullen to a large woman, but only of ordinary height, and the father to a medium-sized man. Th record baby to the sixth that ha been born In the McMullen household and to just about twice the size of those born before it. Some Idea of the Immense slse of th McMullen child can be gained from the statement that the average weight of an Infant at it birth to seven pounds. Medical authorities place the aver age at this figure. The largest child ever born weighed 21 pounds. This In. fant was a boy. Monstrosities have been born at times weighing more than 21 (iffunds, perhaps, but consideration to here given only to healthy, well formed infanta such as the McMullen child. Dr. Estes stated last evening that a child weighing 20 pounds was torn at Cathlamet some years ago. The child was a monstrosity and both mother and Infant died. The mother of this child weighed but 90 pounds. The McMullen child to not only healthy and well-formed, but to as well of more than ordinary beauty a real sweet girlk with every indication of more than usual intelligence. "The slice of a child at birth has lit tle to do with the size of the matured person," said a physician laat night. "This statement is made In a general sense. Some of the smallest babies de velop Into the largest persons. Per sonally, I weighed four and one half pounds at birth, and I believe you will agree that-no one would now call me small. Of course, a large infant haa the better chance of being a large man or woman, but, comparatively speak ing, there 1 much greater .growth among small Infants than among large one. A 17-pound girl' baby Is an un usual occurrence, and I am satisfied the newcomer at the McMullen home holds the local record." Large babies are not unusual in As toria, and only last evening Dr Estes reported the birth of an 11-pound girl to Mr. and Mrs. Chris Holten. of 1629 Franklin avenue. It will be observed that the combined weight of the Mc Mullen and Holten Infants would be equivalent to that of four ordlnary eixed Infants a condition of affairs that is respectfully commended to the consideration of President Roosevelt (although the resident, in furtherance of his Ideas on race suicide, would doubtless e much better pleased If the weight of the two new girls were divid ed Into four parts.)
