' FISHER BROS., COMPANY .VII Other Members of the Crew Hold Tlieir Places Stonmor Chico to ltrliij; Another l-otil Cargo. The customs tug Patrol yesterday resumed her service at the mouth of the Columbia river. The repairs to the boiler did not amount to much and were completed at the Astoria Iron Works in a day. The cost to the government was small. There has been no change in the crew of the tug except In the position of engineer. Charles J. Hobson was originally given the ilace, but when the charges were preferred against members of the crew, who were ul- leged to be Incompetent, he was dis missed along with the rest. When the vessel was ordered back in service, Engineer Hobson was not reinstated. Instead John Smith, former assistant of the quarantine tug Electric, was given charge of the engine room. Mr. Smith is understod to be temporarily n charge, and It can not yet be stated who will be given tho permanent position. In connection with the effort of the people of Puget sound to have the Pa trol transferred to that district it is Interesting to note that there has been much effort at Seattle to also have the lighthouse tenders taken away from Astoria. All sorts of schemes have been concocted with this end In view, but the plans have failed utterly. As toria was originally selected as the headquarters for the lighthouse tend ers because of Its central location, and there is little likelihood of the depart ment ever making any change. ' Marine Notes. The steamship Oregon arrived yes brought a large quantity of freight for Astoria. Including US boxes of flfh for 8. Schmidt & Co. The schooner Irene arrived yester day from San Pedro. She brought I2S5 barrels of asphalt and JST barrels of oil. Tlie Irene Is to load lumber for a return cargo. The lighthouse tender Columbine re turned to port yesterday from a trip to Alaskan lighthouses. Captain Rich ardson reports that Ms trip was an enjoyable one and that the weather was quite favorable. The men brought back many Indian curios. HONOR IS ERICCSON. Fall TO BRING ANOTHER CARGO. Steamer Chico to Return to Lsdysmith for Load of Coal. The steamer Chico is lying at the Elmore dock discharging er cargo of N'aitalmo iuiiio coal. She com- meitced unloading Thursday afternuit and good progress has been made by the stevedores, in all she brought 522 tons of coal. The balance of the cargo will be placed in the bunkers today. As soon as the Chico finishes dis charging she will leave out again for Ladysmlth to secure another coal cargo for Elmore. Nanalmo lump coal 1 supposed to be the very finest fuel available In the Pacific northwest, and there has been good demand for the cargo brought over by the Chico. 8wsdish 8ooity Seeks to Put Claimants Out of 8ight Chicago, April 29. Senator Knute Nelson and Congressman Llnd have been appealed to. by the Swedish Na tlonal Association of Illinois to "de termlne authoritatively and finally where the honor of having designed the first monitor belongs." In the letter sent to Senator Nelson and Cangressman Llnd was suld thut "the entire American people, ns well las the whole world, have always be lieved that from turret to keel plate, from rudder shoe to anchor well, every distinctive feature of the monitor were the creation of Ericsson's brain, every detail was stumped with evidence of his handiwork." It Is said that the request of a de cision Is made to silence "the Impudent pretensions of false claimants to the honor of the Invention." WILL FLY AMERICAN FLAG.

"Why old man you look as though you had gone through a hard cam paign In China with that same blessed old coat on that you used to wear bock at, college." The redfaced sleekly dressed man clapped the little minister on the back and roared his greeting heartily enough after three years' sep. oration. The man of the cloth looked down upon hi greeny-black coat. tightly buttoned up to the throat so that the lack of a shirt underneath would Hot U manifest; he tuck'! back out of sight on frayed cuff that had slipped down the bare wrist, then he laughed a little uneasily. "No, I will not go up to your club, Jim; 1 hardly look fit today." "Why fit enough! Come ulong." The red-faced chap was not to be put off. He was not a fellow to be put off. He was not a fellow to be thoughtful of little things. "Mut, I say, Freddy," he continued, "you must be In love when vou forcet to keer thai button there ewed on.

But Jim, old man, I am not getting very much salary now, down at the chapel only forty-live dollars a month and some times that Is not regular. And be sides," the tired eyes lit up wifJi a gleam near akin to triumph, "we have a new altar In the chapel now and and I helped with its purchase a little bit."

The face that peeked out of the small wicket In the door of the cell reserved at the Central Emergency hospital for youngsters destined for the Juvenile court was as black as the ace of spades. It waa the face of a boy about ten years of age. The whites of his eyes appeared to be the color of mow, so great was ths contrast, and the great big even white teeth shone fortji like a row of pearls on a piece of black cloth. It was a happy-go-lucky face, and Its owner, though dressed In rags, and shoeless and stocklngless, crave every evidence that It did not belle him. "Hullo, boss," he would say, with a merry laugh, to those who, In passing the wicket, would stop and look at the "pickaninny." Such a cheery remark would naturally call forth an equally cheerful response, and then, the Ice broken, the urchin would poke his black, shiny face up to the wicket. "Say, boss," he would then invari ably say, "any chance to got a fellow some doughnuts 7' SAMPSON'S LONG HAIR WAS THE csuie of his death.
