The dlaaater I attributed to the heavy e and wind and the atrong current, which made It linpoaalble for the cap tain to ntand off ahore.

The Skiimokawa fourth annual re gatta commenced ycaterday morning and, will be brought to a clone thl afternoon. Two pnrtlc of Aatorinn went up the river to attend yeaterday inni'iiliig'n ceretnonlea. One party went with Ir. Karle on the (juaruntlne ateamer Klectro, while the other crowd wh taken up by Collector of Cuatoma itobb on the cuatom tug Patrol, Queen Ague waa crowned during the morn ing, and the day's program of aporta wo then carried out. The attendance waa much lurger than at any prevlou regatta held at Skamokawa, and the event were all Interesting. The As toria bund I furnlnhlng mulv fr th? carnival, " The I'ortlnnd Journal y: George H. Hlme, nnalatant nerretary of the Oregon Hlatorlcal Society, hn re turned from an expedition to Aatorla where he hu ben gathering hlatorlcal data. Among the Interesting thing which he hn collected are a number of cople of the "Gnxette," a puper pub llahed In Aatorla over 40 year ago. The paper are not only Intereatlng been u ne of their uge, but they blao contain hlatorlcal matter. Mr. Hlniee atute that Clatnop county I on the boom. "The teople around Aatorla," mild he, "are Junt awakening to the Im portance of good aubatantlal Improve ments. One of the moat striking feat ure of their nctivlty 1 the building of several rnnda Into the surrounding country'. The city of Astoria I also showing unuaunl activity In the way of public Improvement Street are be ing greatly Improved, new public build ing constructed und there Is a gen eral air of activity around the town." The run of snlmon yesterday was about the same as that of the previous day. The notlcenble feature of the sit uation was the Improved hauls of the seiners, many of whom made large catches. The glllnetters continued to do well, and the boat nearly all brought In more than 500 pounds of fish. The salmon are still of excep tionally fine quality and the females have not yet reached that period of maturity usual even during the month of July. The glllnetters are, as a rule, having the best yeur they ever put In on the Columbia river. The price has never once fallen below 5 cents and, considering that 6 and 7 cents were paid by the cold'storage, It Is estimated that the avernge price of the season has been El cents. The glllnet fisher' men have nil made money and the ef fect will unquestionably be felt (luring the winter months. It wns reported yesterday that some of the packers would suspend operation tonight, but the statement could not be verified. The following Improbable story comes from Seaside by way of Port land: Larry Sullivan Is not a Jack of all trades. . In the sailor boarding house line he hits achieved a reputa tion that Is world-wide; In the politi cal field hi name Is looked on by his friends as something with which to conjure; In the mining realm he bids fair to become a magnate. But there are two thing Larry can't do success fully he 1 not a gambler and he can't run foot races, Fresh from his field of victory in three different vocations, the festive Larry went to Seaside about two weeks ago. Life there proved com paratively slow, and when he drifted Into Ben Smith's saloon one evening and found a "21" game In operation he entered. The name of the dealer was Moody. Larry played not wisely, but too well. He dropped a big roll. Worried over his- loss, Larry chal lenged Moody to a foot race. It came oft Saturday night. The contestants footed It across the Necanlcum river, a distance of about 200 feet. Moody footed It the more fleetly and Larry the more feetly. He quit at the third quarter. Taken together, the sailor boardlng-haue man. politician and mining expert lost about 11200 at "21" and foot racing. He Is still nt Seaside, endeavoring to recuperate. According to a dlmtch from Van couver, II. C, effort are to e made to rehabilitate the supply of salmon In the Kraser. TIsb dispatch nays: There have been no flnh running In the Fraser thla week, but there has been no lack o flah talk. Hy addresses presented to Hon. ftiiymond frefoutalne, dominion mlnlnter of murine arid fisheries, who hu been heie for several day, It was made manifest that the chief flatteries Induatry In the province doe not stand In a very hopeful condition at the pres ent time, and the minister ha prom ised to do all In hla power to Improve mattera. Two more hatcheries will be erected Immediately on the Kraaer river and others ure to follow. The hatch eries existing ure to be worked to their fullest cupuclty and to accomplish that Mr. Prefontttlne has laaued Instruction to the olllclaln to "spare neither money nor pains to fill these hatcheries with all the eggs that can be produced, so that Instead of 10 or 13 millions we may have 25 or 30 million of those precious fish distributed." The min ister of flHherle has alao decided that there must be a cloaed season, proba bly from Auguat 25 to September 15. It Is highly probable that the United States authorities will be appealed to Join Canada In this, teat otherwise It should not fully serve Its purpose. CHURCH SERVICES TOMORROW. Rev. (). M. Hidden, pastor of the Norwegian , Evangelical Lutheran church, returned yesterday from St. Murtln" Springs and will preach to morrow at the usual hour in the morn. Inff 'n th Norwegian language.

Allison, who was hunting re cently near Divide, . while stalking. came upon a nest of catamounts. The female flew In his face and he shot her dead, then turning In time to crip ple the male as he sprang. A second shot finished the Tom and completely riddled his hide. The pelt from the mother cat Allison brought to town and gave to Harry Metcalf. Two kittens, the slae of house cats, got away. Dave Allison thinks he Is fortunate, for he says he never knew these "varmints" to show fight In so furious a fashion. Cottage Grove Leader. Seven Portland Wonderr. Albany Morning Herald: From the Portland Point of view the seven won ders of the world are Portland. Mount Hood, the Columbia waterway," the Portland climate, Mayor Williams, the Oregonlan and Bull Run water. The last wonder Beems to have Its bristles out ut present, figuratively speaking, for campers. It is right that every pre caution should be taken with reference to the safety of the water supply. No city has better water than Bull Run, and its purity should be maintained at all cost. OFF FOR THE WORLD'S FAIR.
