II wa atwut 23 years of age, without

men here, an aunt and uncle, and was
thoroughly well liked by bis employers
and by bis mates about the null.
There wa no call fur him to make (lie
effort, he did, a the work of clearing
the conveyor wa assigned to another
man who was entirely proficient In th
task, and the awful fat that overtook
him, wa but. the penalty that so fre
qiiently fall to the overzealoti. t

Dr. Ralph C. Matson and hi friend,
Marr lilssillon, both of the metropolis,
are in the city, having arrived here at
7s30 o'clock on Thursday evening, by
canoe, from Th Dalles,
These gentlemen are membere of the
Oregon Yacht Club, and of the Multno
mah Club, at Portland, and devised the
trip a a departure In summer outings
a far as they were concerned; and what
i more, enjoyed every roll and hour of
the journey. They traversed the whole
distance in a 18 foot Canadian canoe,
and carried their own camping outfit,
cooking utenxils and sleeping bag, ail
of which was duly supplemented by an
unfailing stock of good young muscle
and tb eager spirit and ardent delight
of the sportsman with n abundance of
time on hand and a pleasant experiment
in prospect
They left The Dalles at 0 o'clock on
last Sunday morning and made a quiet
run of 40 mile, to the Collin Hot
Springs, where they spent a few hours
and departed. After a three-hour pull
against heavy, up-stream wind, tbey
returned to the spring end waited for
the the falling of the wind and made a
second . and easier start reaching the
Cascade Locks at 6 p. m. Tbey passed
the locks and made the run through
the middle and lower Cascades in the
brief space of 20 minutes, and tied up
at Bonneyvllle. On Monday morning tbey
made their exit from Bonneyvllle and
never quit paddling till they reached the
upper Cape Horn, and at tbia famous
and beautiful spot they camped and
restefl thoroughly. . They left the cape
at 9 a. m. on Tuesday and made it to
Sauvie Island, with a aide trip to Van
couver, camping on Sauvies and fighting
the awarm of energetic mosquitoes for
which that locality ia famous, until sun
rise Wednesday morning. , ;
They left Sauvies at 8 a- m. and made
St. Helen's, a port of call; took in
Rainier; lunched at Goblc, and went into j
camp after a 50-mile run, at a point two
mile below Mayger.
At 7:33 In the morning of Thursday
they lit out for the lower river crossing
the Columbia so as to make th lower
Cape Horn, and followed the north bank
aa far" aa Tongue Point, where, they
re-crossed and made port at Astoria
at 7:30 as aforesaid, having done 22S
mile of paddling for tb trip, counting
the crossings, which were very numer
ous-
Yesterday they devoted to doing the
City-by-the Sea and were recipients of
many courtesies from club men and
others. Their boat was docked here,
and thev will leave this morning for
the last stage of .their journey hence to
Ilwaco, where the canoe will be shipped
back hone, and Messrs. Matson and
Bisaillon will take in the "Breakers" and
the breakers during all of tomorrow,
after which they will start homeward
via, the Potten
They say tlys trip was wholly pleas
ant. They took a number of Iwthn; vol
untarily, and involuntarily, and smoked
the mosquitoes to a standstill, flirted
with every girl that 'appeared within
range of the eye along the Columbia,
joshed the passing steamers and their
passengers, ate and slept when they
pleased, and were never arrested once;
they are tanned to a delicate mahogany,
and feel like gamesome kids on a lark.
They are pleasant gentlemen and no
one begrudges them the measure of
fun they have had on their outing.

J. a MAYO,
" General Passenger Agent.
Astoria, Ore., June 25, 1906. 6-26-10t.
Not daunted by fire, smoke or water,
Astoria's firemen were overcome, and put
to ignominious rout last evening by a
swarm of bee.
These were not common bees, by any
means. The ordinary honey bee has no
terror for the brave firemen. They can
be brushed aside. HornetsJ. big black,
and buzzing; this was the enemy which
attacked members of the fire department
and caused them to flee. '
It all happened when an alarm of fire
was turned in from the residence of E.
V. Tallant at 682 Grand avenue. The
roof had become ignited from a spark
from the chimney, and for a time it was
feared tho house might be destroyed.
Luckily water was easily obtainable, and
the family with the assistance of neigh
bors managed to extinguish the flames
before the department had arrived.
The shingles, however, were smoul
dering when the firemen appeared on
the scene and in order to make the thing
safe, ladders wore raised preparatory to
ascending the roof and completely put
ting ont the fire. Charles Bartoldus,
driver of the chemical, was the first to
ascend, end just aa he reached the last
run., and was stepping onto the roof,
he accidently stepped on a hornet's nest
The air at once became alive with the
furious insects. They located the de
stroyer of their home, and attacked him
with rim. Bartoldus yelled and beat
the air frantically endeavoring to re
treat down the ladder at the same time.
The honets crawled down his neck, and
settled over him so quickly and thickly
that he forgot to crawl and jumped to
the ground. He was painfully stung in
more than a dozen places. Other firemen
volunteered to make the ascent but
were beaten back in quick succession by
the bees. It wa some minutes before
anyone succeeded in getting oh the roof.
and then it was only accomplished by
moving the ladder to another spot. The
efforts of the firemen furnished much
amusement for the crowd, who offered
all manner of suggestions and encour
agement to those fortunate enough to be
stung. Those who received the hornets'
lind attention besides Bartoldus, were
Ed Llewelyn. M. Tibbets, Tiuey Arri-
goni, Charles Dubeau. and H. Morgan.
