That tweet peas will kill files seems to be the pretty generally accepted Idea, Home week ago The Astorlan repub Hatted a story to the effect that an eastern man had round sweet peas sure remedy for files, and since that time the Idea has been tried out with with much succeas.

An admirer of the doctor hod been sending him occasional boquets of sweet peas, and he noticed every morning that there were many dead file around the vase. At first he paid no particular attention to the clrcum stance, but after several days came to the conclusion that there was some thing fatal to flies about sweet peas. The following day he read the story In The Astorlun, hi own experience having been Identical with that of the eastern man. A dangerous forest Are Is raging be tween Clatskanle and Mist and much timber I reported to have been de stroyed. The Indications are that ruin will soon fall along the lower Colum bia, for the barometer took a downward nlioot Inst night, and that the fires will be extinguished. The dumuge thus fur done within a radius of CO miles of Astoria is trivial, and In Clatsop coun ty no fires of consequence have been reported. David ChiidwUk, who whs Injured In runaway accident near Warrenton on Monday, died yesterduy morning at the Fort Htevens hospital. Tae lad was suffering from concussion of the brain and after the u4clI4jit remained In an unconscious state. He vas 17 years of age. At the time of the accident he was alone and what transpired Is large ly a matter of conjecture. However, It Is believed the team ran uway with him, throwing him to the ground and cuuslng the fatal Injury. The funeral will be huld today and the Interment will be In the Pioneer cemetery,- on Clatsop plains. lmon and the Star. The salmon Is he best flsh and the Star has the best vaudeville. Isn't that o? PERSONAL MENTION. Max Prncht of Ashland he of Peach- blow Paradise fame has bought As toria Inside property and threatens to locate here. Rumor has It that he Is to manuge the new up-to-date hotel to be built, a business for which Max was cut out for originally and of which he made a success In Ashland. The travel ing men say that Max kept the best hotel lr the state outside of Portland, but unless you want a picturesque ac count of wl-at the good old democratic times from '92 to'96 were not, don't get him to tell you the tale of woe of why he quit the hotel business. "However, says he, "Its a good business and I want to get back Into It." CHAS. HEILBORN $ SON Astoria's Complete House-furnishers 9 $' ' 4 Chop Stockton, captain of the Com merclal football team, states that Port land football enthusiast have declared their willingness to bet that Multnomah will score three touchdowns In the Commerclal-Multnomuh game at Port land October 8. "Why, those fellows make a noise like an angleworm," said the local captain last evening. "They'll never score three touchdown against our team. Our lineup Is stronger this year than ever before, and If we could defeat the Multnomah aggregation 15 to 0 last year we certainly ought to prevent a score this season. The only teams that will have a show to beat us are Fort Stevens and Ilwaco. When those elevens play here we will try out aspiring men, and may or may not be beaten. The loss of Goddard, one of our guards, is serious, but we have men to All his place. If we get any thing like a square deal at Portland next month, we'll show that Multnomah aggregation some speed." The men were lust night measured for suits. The present season promises to be the best In the history of football all over the country and some fine games on the north Paclflo coast are looked for. The Oregonlun, perhaps 4 uncon sclously, struck the nail squarely on the head today when It Intimated that this ear's violation of the fishing laws was due to the fact thut the Washington officials do not enforce their law," said prominent packer yesterday. "Those of us In position to know are well ac quainted with he fact that the Wash ington officials have not lnfrquently permitted fishing along the north shore of the river, and It has even been said that Illegal flshlitg has been encour aged there. Now, It's a pretty hard proposition to require strict enforce ment of the Oregon law while the Washington law is being violated, and extremely difficult for the 'Oregon offi cials to enforce their laws while the Washington officials Ignore the viola tlon. The impracticability of conc'ur- cnt Jurisdiction Is what has caused t -.3 trouble this year, and. there Is every nnson to believe that the' law will be -;:".ated more or less every season, so lr. j as the two states fall to act har r.cniously. As far as artificial prop rff.ttl'm Is. concerned, It Is not a farce, "i V..3 Oregonlan says, and the viola tion of the law this year will not hurt the hatcheries. When the returns are made by the state and government fish experts a to the number of fish prop 4r'art. it will be time enough to make comparison along this line." 3. E.
