THE MORNING ASTOUIAN, WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 21, 1901.
SCHOONER IS
BREAKING UP
Ill-Fated Frank W; Howe Is Now
in Two Portions and Will
Not Last Long.
CORPSE MAY BE ABOARD HER
Wreck II A3 Not Yet Ween
Boarded-Schooner Imported
to lie Ashore Near ,
Willapa llay.
Reports receivted from North Head
last night were. to the effect that the
Ill-fated lumber schooner Frank W.
Howe, which went ashore Monday
' morning, had broken in twain during
the day, One portion of the vessel is
now lying broadside to the sea,' while
the other portion remains in the same
position, that it occupied at the time
ef the disaster.
, Weather Observer KelUher expressed
"the belief that the schooner would not
completely break up for about 54 hours
to come.' However she Is going to
pieces, and by the end of thwee
there will not be a vestige of the wreck
left. -'-v : ' -
The impression prevails that the
body of one of the two men killed Is
still aboard the wreck. Mr Kelliher
stated 'ast night that an effort would
be made to determine positively wheth
N er this is really the case, but that no
; one had thus far boarded the wreck.
It is Just possible an examination will
be made today.
When the news leached Astoria on
Monday of the loss of , the schooner
Howe another report of a disaster came
In. This story was to the effect that
a lumber schooner had gone' ashore
near the entrance to Wlllapa bay. It
wss said the schooner had been driven
in by the gale and piled high up on
the beach. . Since then nothing further
'tin been learned of" Jhe matter, anlj
whether or not the- report was correct
can not be ascertained. No reports
have been received from Willapa bay,
and it is probable the story was er
rqneous, v

B. Long, harness maker, em

Front street, Portland, who resides at
348 Second street, same city, says:
"Early last summer I broke , put all
over my body with eczema tetter or
itch. I did not know Just what it was
nor what caused its appearance, but
I do know that the torture I endured
was something fierce. I was very much
alarmed about It, was anxious to 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 overheated
I just fairly clawedthe skin off me.
Anyone who has never bad anything
of the kind knows nothing at all about
it. I was in bad shape when I noticed
an advertisement 1n our' paper1 about
Doans Ointment being a sure cure for
such afflictions. I said to myself
there's another fake,, but S'U try it It
proved to be all that is claimed for It.
Less than two boxes made a complete
cure In my case. "About this time my
younger brother, was taken with , the
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
whlck can be depended upon."
