ONE PIANO NUMBER WITH EVERY CLOTHES BOUGHT AT HERMAN WISES Whenever You Say So; Not Only Once or Twice Eight Salesmen, Two Tailors, Besides Prompt and Gentlemanlr Attention to All HERMAN WISE Astoria's Reliable Clothier Manianita Nearly Sinks It was only by the determined efforts of the officers and crew that the old United States lighthouse tender Manzanlta did not again go to the bottom of the Columbia river, as she was being towed yester day from Tongue Point to St. John's, where she was placed on the drydock for repairs. Although she waa equipped with powerful pumps, moro water was shipped during the passage than they could possibly admit. While the pumps were going to their full capacity me chanics kept patching up the damaged hold. Frequently it looked as though the vessel would have to be abandoned. She was In tow of the tug Samson, one of the stanchest vessels of her type on I the Coast. The tender dragged heav ily on her. For 15 hours the members of the crew worked ceaselessly to keep her afloat. On reaching the drydock they were completely exhausted. Northshore Report. Editor C. C. Clin- ton, of the Pacific Journal, at Ilwaco, was a passenger for Astoria last evening an the steamer Xahcotta, enroute to Portland on n business trip. Mr. Clinton reports a gang of enginerrs and work men now engaged near Oneida, on the preliminary grading of the Columbia Valley Railway, (nee Northern Pacific). tending eastward to meet a similar gang working down the north bank from Stella, Ho Is sure they menn business from the nature of the 'work thev arc lining and the tools and machinery In use. Gray's River Sensation The pleasant ittlo northshore settlement of Gray's River is in tho throes of a spicy sensa tion in the elopmcnt, on Monday last, of the wife of a well known citizen with a half-breed employe in one of the adjacent logging camps. The matter is being kept "under the rose" as much as (Hissible, but will develop as soon as the angry husband shall locate the fly ing couple, the last seen of whom was when they went ashore on Monday night from the Lurline at Stella.

Just for Once Travelers from the me tivpolis yestarday report that it was delightfully wann and sunny up there, and were surprised to come down here and find such gloomy and sloppy weather, but it is only for a brief sea son, Astoria's September and October "beautiful spell' is yet to spread itself over this neck of the woods. PRESSED FREE AT THE STAB, "Mabel Heath" Played by WilUrd Com pany Draws Big House. The first performance of "Mabel Heath'' drew a well filled house at the Star last night, the beautiful story was splendidly staged and well told by Mr. Willard and his company, Mr. Willard appearing in an Irish character, a part quite different from what he has yet ap peared in, was exceedingly funny and kept the audience in roars of laughter whenever he appeared and the comedy in his hands was well sustained. Mr. Bianchard, as the father of "Mabel Heath,'' gave us some splendid acting and h'"s scenes with his daughter were very touching. Miss Shepard, as the daughter, was verv fine and carried her part to perfection. Miss Dunn as the lively "Sadie" was all that could be de sired and helped with Mr. Elton, who appeared in another of his "dude" parts, to keep the fun rolling. Verne Lay ton as "Frank Lawton," the villian of the piece, was again up to the standard, and got all there was out of'the part. For the Far East Mr. and Mrs. J W. Welch and Mr. J, E. Higgins and Miss Higgins were passengers on Cue evening express for Portland, whence they will depart on Saturday, tomorrow. for Toronto and Halifax respectively, via the Canadian Pacific.
