The chntijfe comet about a a result of the well Fargo Company's contract expiring with the former A. & C. It. II Co. and for the further- reason that the Northern Pacific interest are in control of the railroad snd have their own express company; Mr, R. II, Jenkins, general passtnuef and freight agent, of the A t C. It. R. Co. said yesterday that tha change wa to be made but that he did not know exactly tht detail of the transition. lit presumed, however, that the change would be one of title only and that tht office would probably remain at the same location, 802 Dond street, tht pre sent home of tht Welia Fargo Co. The official will probably remain the same as far a any one knows at the present time and the only change that may be anticipated will be la the service on tht trains running between Astoria and Portland. Agent Peterson, of the Weil Fargo Company, ha not been definitaly en prai"d of any changralthough he ha heard rumor to the effect that such a change is contemplated and he believed that it will takt place. "Nothing ha been said to me of an official nature," said Mr. Peterson r i-ently, "but it would not take a very long time for the change to bt made nbd toward the end of the month I will probaMy be notified concerning the mat tef." None of the officials at the Well Fargo company are anticipating any change and Mr, Peterson has many friends here who wih to see him con tinued with the new company and it main In Astoria. NOVEL FEATURE IN BOAT RACES FISHERMAN AND HIS BRIDE WILL TAKE PAST IN RACES AFTER FISHED TOGETHER DURING PAST TWO MONTHS. A novel feature in the fUhboat race will be. the entrance of a couple who have been spending their honeymoon on the river for tut past few month on an outing among the fishermen. The en terprising couple are Theadora E. Lahti and his bridurof a few months. They will enter the rowing races and it ia claimed that they stand a good ahow for winning ane ot more of the events. Mrs. Lahti hat been boatpuller for her husband during the entire fishing season. Shortly after they were married Mr. Lahti engaged in catching salmon at the river mouth and his wife not caring to bt) left alone aocompanled'him. She in sixtcd on pulling the oars when lie .waa setting his net and did it so success fully that she has been pulling the boat with him all season; . Both of them have become so hearty and strong with their healthy outdoor work that when the program of water "ports was given out they decided to enter the races, feeling that they atood a good a chance as any two fishermen on tho river. From their appearance and the way they handle a boat together it altogether probable that they will be in at tht "finish." The presence of a woman rowing with a man in one of the fishing boat ia regarded by the Regatta committee at something unusual and! which will be enthusiastically receival by the apectators. They art greatly pleased at the entry and the enthusiasm being displayed by the fishermen in tho coming conteata. It has been decided to nut on a doer show during the last two dayt of the big celebration. This feature of the show was tried for tho first time last year and proved such a success that It will be tried again thia year. A number of entries have already been made. The show will be under the auspices of the American Kennel Association. When the news that there will be a dog show ha been heralded the com mittee is confident that a much krwr number of entries even than at last year's show will be received. Entries for all aporta and other events to be pulled off at the Regatta will be open only until next Tuesday. Steamer T. J.

By this time all the force in the res- tauprnt had gathered around tbt range and were investigating tha big kettle. C H. Cole touched the magic pot and waa lifted on his feet. Fred Cruminel experienced the same sensation. Then doubting Jack Gallager was brought over and felt the ticketing. The whole thing wa a mystery. There wa no explanation. Nothing had ever occurred on the well-behaved range like that be fort and the big chef wa beginning to think of spirits and ghosts. But, tDe solution was finally solved. "Oh, Yimminy," shouted Miller, "the thing i after my feet. It' going to bum u. Everyone craned their neck to see and down In tht corner close to the hot water pipe leading into the range waa an exposed electric wire which oc casionally threw off a spark.
