?j Few Yesterday.
ft The bar was doing some of its high
Ujiuks all of yesterday, and was a bit too
.Irough for the steamship Mackinaw,
jgrain laden for the Bay City, to leave
;ufc '
l The steamship Costa Rica left the
"!b. R. ft X. pier, for sea at 9 o'clock
,:,esterday morning, and went over the
;jbar at high noon, on her voyage to the
Bay City.
The Standard Oil tank steamer Col. E.
. L. Drake, came in over the bar at 1:30
! o'clock yesterday afternoon, and at 2:30
passed the city on her way to the me
tropolis. She was loaded deep with oil.
.1 The British vessels Wavertree and
Miltonburn, whkh dragged their an-
'chors and got onto the sands of the
lower bay, on Monday morning last,
i have been safely returned to the chan-
: nela, absolutely none the worse for their
"touch-downs."
The handsome lighthouse tender Col
, i umbine ias fooled lots of ,er friends,
by coming back from her recent Alaskan
trip, all painted in funeral black. She
left here white as snow, and the change
- was made at Seattle. Her officers claim
' it makes a great difference in the task
' of keeping her clean; but all the same it
- does not add to her beauty.
The British barks Duehalburn and
1 Miltonburn, sister-ships and fleet-mates,
will leave up tomorrow for Portland (or
-a perhaps .-not until Friday morning),
where both will load grain out for the
I United Kingdom. The Miltonburn was
1 under orders for Seattle, but toe orders
'- were changed yesterday, and she now
goes up the riverj as 1, of course, the
properest thing.
The fine steamship Senator has at last
been chartered for service on the Port-land-Astoria-San
Francisco line, and
left the Bay City yesterday at noon, for
this port. She is iu command of Cap
tain Nopander, and has a good list of
passengers aud wads of freight. ihe I
an exact duplicate of the "late, lament,
ed" St. Paul, and though a alow boat,
i splendidly appointed and very com
f 01 table, and a big carrier. She is due
in tomorrow.
The 0.R.4X. steamer Harvest Queen
came "down early yesterday morning and
fastened 011 to the big French ship
Europe, which was waiting for her off
Tongue Point, and swung back up the
river for Portland where the Europe will
load grain out for the United Kingdom.
She had hardly made fast, when the
Oklahama came down and took the
Crillon in tow, on the same errand, and
started back, both getting underway be
fore 7 o'clock in the morning.
The fine steamship Roanoke docked at
the Calender pier at 9 o'clock yesterday
morning, after a stormy trip up from
Port Los Angeles. She had a big list
of passengers, two of whom disembarked
at this port, the Mis Hilma Johnson
and Alice Carr. Her officers report the
sighting of the French ship Lillibone,
dismasted, off Punta Reyes, on the Cali
fornia coast, headed for San Francisco,
under jury rig, and making fair pro
gress. While the Roanoke was lying on the
mud flat at the entrance to the harbor
at Eureka, where she touched in going
out and was compelled to await high
'water, a passenj.fr from Los Angeles,
and a well known citizen of that place,
became over-anxious to land, and as the
officers refused him a boat to the shore,
he peeled off his coat and vest, took a
header over the side, and started to
swim for the nearest shore. A passing
boatman picked him up, and took him
to the city, from which place be tele
graphed to Purser Simpson to ship, or
bring back, to him, there, his trunk,
suitcase, and the clothes he left on the
deck when he made his arbitrary plunge.
It Is needless to say that "booie" was
at the bottom of the affair, which
might have ended disastrously for the
sport, but for the fisherman who was
passing at the time. Mr. Simpson will
see to it that be gets all his belongings
on the return trip.
The Roanoke left up for Portland at
'noont and will be down, on the outward
voyage, at 8 o'clock on Saturday mowing
next.
The flagship of the lighthouse fleet in
this port, the Armcrla, went to sea and
Seattle, yesterday morning on the early
flood. Captain Gregory ha some work
to do at Destruction Island, and some
other visits to make and will be ab
sent the better part of a month. "Bus
ter Brown, the pet dog of Dr. Vaughn,
of this city, was a passenger out on the
Armeria, as the "guest of Chief Engi
neer Startup, and will eat hi Thanks
giving "Urncs," in the metropolis of
Puget Sound. He has hi well knowu
collar on, bearing the inscription, "I am
Doc. Vaughn's dog, whose dog are you?"
and it is the intention of the Chief to
quietly let "Buster in the office door
of Dr. Foley, a college mate and old-time
chum of Dr. Vaughan's and then watch
Foley che all over the city looking for
Vaughn. At all events, thert will be
fun for somebody, with "Buster" in
j eluded.
j The steamer Northland arrived down
j from Portland last evening with an
.immense load of lumber for the Bay
City. She docked at the Calleudcr pier
and will go to see sometime today.

I The North Head wires were not work
ing yesterday morning, having been
.downed in the storm of the night prev
ious; but they were soon in working
order, and in the interim, Weather
Observer Kelliher walked into Ilwaco,
and wired over hi reports, both clima
tic, and marine, which Is just what one
might expect of that wise and accom
modating officer,

schedule last night, but got away for

plenty of business.

Had a Narrow Ecpe
Andrew Larson, of Chinook, had a
narrow escape yesterday, from drown
ing, that will last him for some time
to come. He went out ou the river In
hi dinghy with a load of chain for
some purpose, and the boat being leaky
and the chains unduly heavy for it. it
sank with him, well out In the stream
Urxoii swam around for a while waiting
for the boat to rise again, as It had
turned over in it descent, and by every
law of gravitation should have come up
avain, but the chain caught and held It,
in some way, aud he was just exhausted
when he realised he had nothing to
hoie for from the dinghy. He then swam
to some piling about 150 feet distant,
and clung to the barnacles on them for
pretty nearly half an hour, yelling with
the regularity and unction of a fog horn
in good working order. At last hit pre
dicament wa discerned by Louis Blgsby,
who was passing by in hi wagon, and
he got boat and went out to the al
moat exhausted man aud helped htm to
shore and to hi home, where he soon
recovered hi normal and hearty ton
and temper. But It wa a narrow squeak,
all the tame; and at he says "the bar
nactes on those pile had a good deal to
do with hi subsequent salvation, as
they gave him the only hand-hold be
could maintain."
New Business Relations:
It was announced last evening that
Al, Schroeder, the well known and popu
lar clerk who served at the establish
ment of Ro, Higgin ft Company,
in this city, for the past six op seven
years, has purchased an Interest In the
Acme Grocery Company, on Commercial
street, and will be found there, hence
forth, making the best use of his In
timate and reliable knowledge of the
business. The Acme people are to be
congratulated as well as Mr, Schroeder,
and the clientelle of the house.
Cause of Libeling
The cause of the libeling of the steam
ship Mackinaw, and her being held here
by a deputy United State marshal, was
the filing of two suits for 15000 each by
Teresa Rinehart, and Annie Colons, both
of Portland, who claim that they were
injured in an accident last Sunday in
which the steamship and the Alblna
ferry figured. Carelessness on the part
of the officer and crew of the steamship
is charged. Both ladle tuffered broken
limb and other injuries.
