The superb weather of yesterday was an incentive for a great many people to fly the city in buggies and more preten tious outfits, and hie them to the quiet and pretty nooks of the countryside. NEW INSPECTOR. Thomas 1!. buigh.-rry has been ap pointed street inspector by the street committee of the city council. NEW MANAGER FOR T0KE POINT. F. S. Wilson of Portland will succeed dipt. C. J. Nnsh as manager of the Toke Point Oyster Company's beds. Some months ago Captain Xash resigned in order to return east to be with hU mother who is far from well. The com pany was sorry to lose him and it has been a difficult matter to fill his place but they have at last secured the right man. Capt. Nash is an old experienced Long Island Sound oysterman and brought several new ideas here with him from the east which he has put into successful practice on his companys beds. He is a genial, sociable man and the many friends he has made here will be sorry to see him go. Mr. Wilson has been with the company some time. South Bend Journal. LONG SEA TRIP. Captain A. M. Simpson is in New York for the purpose of purchasing an iron steamship with a capacity of one and a half million feet of lumber. Mr. Simpson will return with the steamer around the Horn and will place the ves sel on the run between Cooa Bay, San Francisco and San Pedro to assist in supplying the extra demands for lumber. It seems almost impossible to have lum ber shipped as rapidly as it is used in the rebuilding of San Francisco. It is said to be Mr. Simpson's intention to purchase the largest vessel that enters Coos Bay. Marshfield Advertiser. WHO KNOWS HIM HERE? Thursday morning Frank Barichio found the decomposed body of a man on the teach half way between Sandy Point and Bay Centre. He returned to Bay Centre and announced hi ghastly find and Hans Olsen and other examined the body. Mj. Olsen was in the city Thurs day evening and reported the body as that of a heavy set man, the kin w as off the hands and one thigh had been eaten by something. Large leather boots encased his legs uch as Columbia River fishermen wear. He wore a sweater which was partly over his bead and a black vest. In the pockets were found a pocket knife and 80 cents. The remains were in such a state that they had to be buried at once. E. 0. Reed made a coffin and the body was buried in the cemetery at Bay Centre. There is little doubt but that the body is that of a Columbia River fisherman, a number of whom are drowned each year while ply ing their trade during the fishing season. The currents in the ocean sweep north from the Columbia River entrance and set into Willapa, Harbor so that it is not an uncommon occurrence for bodies which have been carried to sea from the Columbia to be found on the shores of the bar. South Bend Journal. NO QUAKES IN OREGON. A marked decrease in the arrival of Eastern homeseekers has been noticeable since the San Francisco earthquake. Real estate agenU and others in all parts have observed the difference, and called attention to it. For several weeks after the earthquake there wa practically no arrivals whatever. Of late, however, a few have begun coming but not in the numbers formerly in vogue. That the earthquake waa the cause of the condi tions is known by reason of the fact that in several instances Eastern friends wrote persons who had come out to the coast and urged them to return east where dreadful earthquakes never hap pen, but where cyclones occasionally blow up a town or city or raise the devil gen erally. Real esiate agents also report that for a time correspondence with easterners inquiring after western homes, ceased altogether. Of course to people east of the Rockies, everything on the coast is "The West" and to thousands an earthquake in California menn9 that the whole coast is quaky, and that settles it. In time they ought to learn that Oregon is free from the troubles that fret the rest of humankind. Corvallis Times. HE DROPPED A LINE. Uncle Charley Wright, the irenial boniface of the Hotel Occident, over took a lull in the day's business vester- - w day, and desiring a bit of a change in the monotony of the office, took his fish line, and went into the kitchen, where, from one of the windows he dropped a line to the piscatorial fraternity that hover under the hotel at high tide and in a few minutes, was scanning a 22 pound carp, besides a lot of smaller frv. He says that is one of his relaxation. TUTORING, SCHOOL AND COLLEGE WORK. Charles F. Chessman, A. B. Harvard, S59 Franklin avenue. Phone Bush 2481. 6-24-3t. , at U:. O PERSONAL MENTION.

Man Impaled Upon His Own Home Fence, at Aberdeen. Meeting almost instant death by being impaled on a picket fence, was a tragedy of North D street this afternoon that cost the life of Jonas Jonnsson. The breaking of a rung in the ladder on which he was standing ten feet above the ground was responsible for the acci dent. Jona-sson is a longshoreman, and for the past few days has been making little improvements about his home dur ing the enforced idleness caused by the strike. Today he was painting the house and at the time of the accident wa9 at the front of the building. The yard there is divided into two grass plots, a picket fence running along each side of the walk which leads to the doorway. Jonason was standing on a small ladder which was placed within several feet of the fence on the north side of the walk. He was perhaps ten feet above the ground when, without warning one of the rungs broke and he fell directly on the fence. One of the .sharp pointed pickets was driven into his left side just above the heart, piercing one of the large veins. The picket penetrated about eight inches and waa broken off. Members of the family and another man at the resi dence heard the fall and rushed to his assistance. Blood was pouring from the hole in his side in great quantities. The injured man waa carried into the house and physician summoned, but Jonasson died within three minutes. Deceased waa a native of Norway, where he was ai sea captain or a num ber of years. The greater portion of his life waa spent on the water, but of late years he haa worked as a longshoreman. He leaves a wife and four children. The body was rm,o,ve4 l;i?owes & Ran dolph's undertaking parlors. The funeral arrangements have not been made. Aberdeen Bulletin. : to superiority is imitation.
