THE M011NING ASTORIAN, ASTORIA. OREGON. THURSDAY, AUGUST 1, 1907. 9ft MM-MM LOGGING CAMPS TO OPEN ' FIRMS NEAR DEEP RIVER RESUME OPERATIONS ACTIVITY IN RAIL ROAD CONSTRUCTION AND BOAT BUILDING ACROSS THE RIVER Logging camps which have been closed for several months across the Columbia. from Astoria, have been opened up again and there is great scarcity or labor, according to William Anderson, a pronn nent merchant of Deep River, Wash, who was a visitor in the city yesterday He asserts thai there is more activity in the timber industry than formerly and that mill men ere preparing to pro duce the product on a large scale. nd that the recent congestion on the mar ket seem to have disappeared, ' III. Anderson reports that the sur veyors laying out the line of railroad to be constructed from Deep River to South Bend, and from that city to Gray's Harbor, have finished their work. The surveyors are greatly pleased with the route selected and claim to have a splendid passage from the Columbia to the harbor. One survey party is at preeent laying out a line for a railroad from Deeo River to Skamokawa. Mr. Anderson is president of the Deep River Transportation Company, and re ports that the hull of the ship which is to be put on the run between Astoria and Deep River has been completed, and that the boat is now awaiting the ar rivals of her engines. As soon as the latter have been installed, which will be as soon as the machinery has arrived, the boat will be launched and put on the run as early as possible. The steamer will probably be put in command of Captain Lumley, although this matter has not been settled as yet. It is expected that the innovation of the new boat will cause an increase of busi ness between the two states at this point and will be a great benefit to Astoria. F. C. Anderson, the son of Mr. Ander son, killed the largest bear ever seen cn Gray's River, early this week. The arjroal waa of the black species and weighed over 500 pounds. The bear had been commiting ail kinds oi depreda tions in the apple orchards near Gray's Harbor and Mr. Anderson's son caught him in the act of stowing away large BOHEMIANS PLAY ST. JOHN'S SUNDAY MANAGER BROWN TAKING UP A STRONG TEAM TO GREET THE MISSIONARIES TWO NEW PLAY ERSDEAN'S GOOD WORK. Extensive preparations are being made by the management of the As toria Bohemian baseball team for the trip to Portland on Sunday when the team leaves to try conclusions with the St. Johns team for the last time. Manager Fred Brown is using every effort to take up a good team and i also making up an excursion party and all those who wish to go can accommo date him by giving their names at his cigar store, 550 Commercial street. Manager Brown announces two new men on the team. They are Madeen and Jamison. Jamison is to play first base and has a good reputation at that posi tion. Madeen is a pitcher and is making good with his team-mate. Brown is non-committal as to his accomplishments NEAT CLEAN Filled with. Sanford's Best moulding.

HIGGINS CO., ' MUSIC BOOKS STATIONERY but he is rnut.l to be a strong, heady man who can be counted on to keep hi nerve in a tight place. The trip that the (cam i to tike Sumhiv i a pleasant ono in nmicina tion for the players as Manager Charlie Moore, of the St, Johns team, ia well liked by all the lowl men and, ha the reputation of being one ol the most hospital managers on the circuit, always excepting the genial manager of the home team. So all are looking forward to the trip. The baseball gam on Saturday was a good on in which to watch the work of Dean. Manager Brown's new third baseman. He was practically unknown to the fans and there were many re marks in the grandstand when he walk ed out in an ill fitting suit to take hi position at the beginning of the game. He did not have many sympathisers until he struck his gait. He stopped up one grounder in good form but it wa run and dive stunt efter a hard foul near the grandstand which won the hearts of the spectators. It was one Of the hardest chances that come to that hard position for any player third base and he dug out for the ball ami just caught it after a harvl run. It was close to the grandstand but he held hi nerve and went In after it notwith standing a stumble meant a smashed head or a broken shoulder. Dean also showed up well with the stick and secured a hit in' that wonder ful batting rally which the ten in held in the eight inning. Astoria has a good umpire in '"Daddy" Tyler, He does not allow any of the rowdyism which frequently mars the sport, especially of the town teams. But he could pull his games off a little faster if he would insist that a police man or two be provided to keep the heedless crowds back from the players benches. It is enough to manage the players without having to talk to the elod-hoppers who always hang around a player's bench. The remaining schedule of the eaon and games to be played by the Astoria team follows: Three games with Wood burn, two with Kelso, two with Frakea, two with Brainard Cubs, two with Trunkmnkers, and one with St. Johns. AT THE THEATER TONIGHT MR. WILLARD PRESENTS "TWO MEN OF OREGON" "HIS WORST ENEMY" TOMORROW NIGHT BOYS CAN ATTEND FREE. Owing to the fact that the author of "Two Men of Cwgon" has notified Mr. WilUrd that representatives of the Or pheum Circuit will be in this city to witness the production, there will be a performance tonight contrary to the previous intention Mr. Willard takes this opportunity of inviting all the boys of Astoria to witness the play free of chargA On Friday night, S. W. Delanater's great political temperance drama, "His Worst Enemy," will be presented ,and Mr. Willard promises a sensation in realistic staging. The play is a strong one based pon actual facts end as an interesting epi sode of life as seen almost every day of the present time of politics, this produc tion should prove a most interesting evenings entertainment. is an expression as old as the race.

The semi-weekly meeting of the Re gatta and County Fair Committees was held in the rooms of the Astoria Cham ber of Commerce kist night with a large attendance, and all the reports turned in gave every indication of the coming celebration being the biggest ever attempted and the moat successful eier held in this city. I'mXTen' t Sowden auToUierivpre-eil- Utives of the Trade and labor Coun cil were present at the opening of the meeting and made preliminary arrange ments for the big labor day parade. They announced their Intention of hold ing a big mas meeting on Tuesday night when the subject will be thoroughly threshed out and delegated appointed to take active part in the work with the Chamber of Commerce committees. It is tlie intention of the labor unions in the city to join the Regatta parade on the afternoon of labor day, Septem ber 2, with huge floats of every descrip tion and applied to every industry in the city. This part of the parade will be its biggest industrial feature and will prove to the thouauds of visitors what A-toria can produce. All members of the trades and labor council are ask ed to attend the mas meeting next Tuesday night. It is probable that a large tent, (Mix 1UU feet, will be used for the county fair exhibits, it is believedthat the engine house is not large enough for the pur pose. There was considerable discua--iun on the matter Irt-1 night and a con ference of the fair committee will be held to decide on the change. Chairman Bowlby of the fair commit tee has appointed several men in the different parts of the district to interest themselves in the collection of exhibits and the county fair is expected to have the largest representation of any prev ious year. The matter of handling the live stock exhibition is an important feature, and it Is probable that the en gine house will be used for this purpose, while the tent will be uoed for the agricultural exhibits. Fred Johnson is chairman of a com mittee which is listing all rooming houe in the city in order that the visitors will find ample accommodation. In former years tlie dearth of room hat been a serious ditowback to the celebration, and the committees this year desire to have all parties having rooms to rent, or those who would like tofa-ist them by notifying them that they have a spare room, to notify them as early as po. sible so that tlie-y may make their plans accordingly. Advertisements to this effect have been placed in tlie local papers and the citi zens of tlie city will confer great assist ance on the Chamber of Commerce by furnishing plenty of room anil thereby giving visitor a good impression of the city, which they would not have if they failed to find accommodations. Chairman Barry of the sports commit tee, made a report of his work thus far in regard to the land and water race. He has the largest program thjt ha ever been presented, almoet every style of race to be thought of being embodied in the list. He reported that much in terest was being taken in the water sports by local men and that several racing shells were 'being put in shape for the race. He w making arrangements with Portland people for shell races, motor boat races, yacht races, and numerous other events. Wherever it is possible to get sportsmen interested in the races he is sending notice of the big meet and it is probable that the sports will be large enough to attract the atten tion of any city in the west. A large number of special attractions will be added to the Regatta, such as high-diving, hair-raising stunts in the water, divers going down to the bot tom of the rivet and changing from men's clothing into the garb of a wom an, an4 numerous other features of an interesting nature. A night parade will be provided in which ft boat will tow a line of other boats, a rope strung with colored lights Wing the only object visible in the darkness. The snaky curves and twists will be decidedly unique and pleasing to the spectators, for whom a huge grand' stand will be erected on the wharf at the foot of Eleventh street, The question of securing an admiral for the fleet of boats which will be twisting around the course during the sports was discussed lat night and members of the committee were asked to look up a good navigator or captain to take charge of the fleet, Numerous features of the Regatta and Fair vre thoroughly th.vnhtl out !t 1,i!,,t' whil iHrs of the committee having the various departments In charge made reports which gave a glow Jug description of the work done lhu j far. Tliere will be 01 raws, the program of which will be published later, NEW TO-OAY. 1 swill fl Mjtdrv ttiiltllA in nM hflui. ,t illy'V cigar store. ' U. , i Panama hate cleaned and blocked.
