The Clatsop County Sunday School
Convention convened in the Methodist
church on yesterday afternoon at 1:45
p. in., and was railed to order by the
County President, Mr. J. E. Furgeson.

hone. Secretary Mrs. J. F.. Fergnon.
At 2:30 Rev. J. V. Milligan gave a
most excellent address during the Bible
study hour on the subject, "The Mas
ter Teacher Teaching to Win the Sin
ner." The speaker condemned the pol
icy of a great many of the Sunday
schools in wrapping their robes of self
righteousness about them and neglect
ing the whole outside world. He used
the lesson of Christ with the impure
woman to show that the Miter came
to teach the sinner and that no one
ever got too low to not be reached if
sought in the proper way. He contend
ed that it was the duty of the church
to save every one and that the Sunday
school teacher must be willing to go
anywhere and teach any class of people
that they could get to hear the truth.

Miss Emma C. Warrcu read a valu
able paper on the subject, 'Rcsponibil
ities of the Sunday School Work." She
stated that there were three classes of
children that were taught in the Sun
day school. First,' tjhose tjist came
from homes in which they knew nothing
about the religious life. Second, the
nominal Christian homes and third, the
Christian home. As the scholars came
from such environment, the speaker
srgued. the teacher must know the con
ditions that are ineach home in order
that she may apjel to the scholar in
the right way.
Mrs. S. K. Thelicl favored the con
vention with a pleasing olo which was
enjoyed by all present.
The closing exercise of the after

At 12:20 o'clock yesterday afternoon,
the mortal remains of Captain 3. P.

kins, who va drowned off Fisher's dock
in this city on the night of Friday, No

h)W awful plunge to etctrtnityi: The)
body Moated out from under the east
erly end of the Flavel pier and was f.rst
seen by a young man named George
Spicer, who, at ilrst deemed it 1 dummy,
but soon found his error and hailed the
employes of the steamer Electro, who in
turn passed the cry to the Patrol ly
ing west of her.

Klectro with a long boat-hook, and the
sad derelict was swept out of the tide
way and made fast to the fender piles
on the inboard side of the Electro, a ml
word of the finding ot the body was
instantly telephoned to the office of
Coroner W. C. A. Pdtil, who sent the

Temple Ulge Xo. 7, A. F. A. A. M.,
of which great order Captain ll.insen
was a memler had offered re
ward of $25.00 for the recovery of the
Itody, and Worshipful Master, W. L
Robb was promptly untitled of the dis
covery and at once took char1 and
made necessary preparation for the
funeral service ami burial at I .recti
wood, thi forenoon.
There was some doubt in the mim!
of those who discovered and reported
the body, as to whether the remains
were thoe of the lute captain, or not.
but the prompt arrival of Messrs. Mar
tin board and Otto Carlson, who knew
decedent well, and the informal search
of the clothing on the body, revealing
his watch, ring, paper and other data
which which they wire severally famil
ial, soon disipated all doubt a to iden
tity and the coroner took charge ami
will prepare the captain to receive fin
al and fraternal honors today. Captain
Hansen was a member of Occidental
lodge. Xo. 71, A. F. 4 A. M., of Hal
lard, Washington and was a well-known
and popular fruter.
I Mr. Robb yesterday vircd the new
of the recovery of Captain Hansen
body to his unhfippv widow at Oak
land California and will receive ack
nowledgement in dii. course.
Thi close the last chapter in the
life of a man well kiiowu and respected
in his home, his profession, and in nil
the places his "sailorly career called
him, and it is of gratifying conseiienre
to Mrs. Har.sen, ami her daughter, ami
his numlx-rles friends, that hi last
resting place may U chosen, marked
and tended, rather than that hi end
should be noted by a single doubt.
Msnianita Latest.
Commanders II. T. Mayo and L. C.
Ileilner have returned to Portland fiom
their trip of inspection of the tender
Manzanita here. Commander Mayo left
at once for San Francisco. From the
information they have gained, neither
expect to see the wrecked tender em
ployed in the Government service again.
Commander Ileilner said before leaving
here that the expense of repairing her
would be greater than the cost. His re
port to the Lighthouse Board will con
cur with Commander Msyo's recommen
dation to sell the vessel and replace her
with new and up to date tender. Conditions-
were not favorable to an inspec
tion; while the inspectors wifre hertei
and an estimator is making a survey
of the tender this week. As soon as
the weather permits Inspector Ileilner
will make a trip of inspection up the
Sound in the lightship Heather.
