The bar is on its good behavior
these days. Yesterday it was smooth
all day, with clear weather. The low
est velocity of the wind was fiy miles
at 8, o'clock, while the greatest was
10 miles at noon. Towards evening
the wind died down to eight miles.
There was no difficulty for any of the
vessels to cross in or out
hont rolled until her yards touched
on either side, still Reed was tugging
at her. Finally a whopper ciuignt
her, and we saw her turn completely
over, righting herself, as we learned
after, without losing even tin cup,M
"Say, captain," asked the inquisitive
reporter, "how many feet of water
were there on the bar at that time?"
"Oh, about 18 feet," answered the
veracious sea doir. "How in the world
could a vessel turn completely over
in 18 feet of water? Why her masts
would strike the bottom," urged the
reporter. "Young maV" said the nar
rator, "You're a regular1 inquisitive
Clarence, but I'll explain to you! You
see when the skipper saw that she
was going over he ordered the masts
taken in and the job was done in
time to save her." The news-gatherer
gasped, reeled to the door and feebly
said: "Say, Cap., tell that to a Tele
gram reporter."
The gasoline schooner Evie arrived
in yesterday morning, She came from
points along the Oregon coast with

left up for Portland last evening. The
Claverdon is now ready for sea and
will leave out at the first opportunity.
The steamer Minnie E. Kelton will
be put on the run between San Fran
cisco and Tillamook and will carry
freight and passengers. She is a ves
sel of 100 tons and has accommoda
tions for 40 passengers. It is thought
that the running of this steamer will

Redondo on January 26th for the

will bring back farm produce.
The steamer Asuncion arrived at
Port Harford on Thursday, from
Portland.
The steamer Tallac, from the Co
lumbia arrived at San Francisco,
yesterday.
One of the most fruitful sources of
news of thrilling experiences, is a
gathering of seafaring men. The ex
periences that many ot them go
through would turn the average man s
hair gray in the time it takes them
to laugh at the "little incident." The
marine reporter's hair is not yet gray
but its rigidity was heightened by a
story he heard yesterday in which
Capt. Reed, of the Wallula, figured.
"Speaking of exeprience on the bar,"
said one of the pilots, "they talk of
captains and pilots not crossing when
it's rough. Bah I I. was at the dock
one day when the news was brought
to Capt. Reed that a three-master was
outside and wanted to get in. Reed
had steam up on the Wallula, and
jumping aboard he gave one blast
and. ringing full speed ahead, started
for' her. When he reached the bar
he found it pretty rough. We were
watching him through the glass and
saw him go through what I would
call well, he had a time of it all
right. He fastened to the jammer
and started in. Coming over, that
CHINESE NEW YEAR.
Opening of the Festive Season With
Much Noise and Hilarity.
At midnight last night the Chinese
New Year was ushered in by our
Celestial population. Fire crackers
galore were exploded and prepara
tions for a good time, today, were be
ing made all evening.
Today is the Chinese new year, the
great day of the year and it will be
fittingly celebrated. The festivities
will not assume the proportions of
other years, owing to the facMhat
money is not as plentiful as usual
with the Chinese, who, like many of
the white folks, are unemployed and
have made little during the fishing
season. Today will be the one day of
the celebration , and will be devoted
to a general good time, no business
being done. After today, however,
business will go on as usual, though
the usual visiting, and celebrating,
will continue for a time, dependant
upon the amount of money the ecle
brator has to spend.. A prominent
Chinese merchant said, last night,
that about four days will see the end,
and that on Tuesday night, if weath
er conditions are good, the .final send
off of fire crackers will occur. If
Tuesday night is 1ot fair the noise
will be postponed until Wednesday
night and the joyous, and it might be
said, noisy season will close.
It has been generally understood
among the white people that at this
'season carte blanche is extended to
the public to enter and inspect all
narts of the Chinese quarter and ad
vantage has been taken of the sup
posed freedom offered. The Chinese
are elad to have their white friends
call on them, but would rather that
strangers xwould not intrude on their
nrivacv as has been done in the past,
partly through the mistaken idea of
many, regarding "open house, ana
partly through idle curiosity. All are
welcome to visit the stores but the
line is drawn at private apartments.
Chinatown contains many intelligent
Chinamen, who speak English well
and who will explain with pleasure
the different features of the celebra
tion.
NO MORE CATARRH.
T. F..Laurin Will Not Allow it to
. Exist in Astoria.
"There will be no more catarrh in
Astoria," says T. F. Laurin, "unless
people fail to follow the lwof common."
T. F. Laurin makes this statement
because of the great success that has
followed the use of Hyomet in the
treatment of catarrhal troubles. So
positive is this treatment in quick
relief and permanent cure that He
sells it under an absolute guarantee
to refund the money if it does not
do all that is claimed for it
It follows nature's planjn curing
disease of the throat and lungs by
bringing healing medication right to
the very spot where the disease germs
exist. With this treatment, healrh
giving oils and balsams are breathed
through a neat pocket inhaler that
comes with every outfit, so that every
breath you take while using Hyomei
is a breath of healing air It kills all
catarrhal germs and prevents their
growth, so that the cure is thorough
and permanent.
Remember that Hyomei is sold
under a guarantee to cost nothing
unless it cures. If you have any
catarrhal trouble, you , should take
advantage of T. F. Laurin's liberal
offer. . '
It is encouraging that the railway
men have readied the stage where
they are willing to talk it over with
the President. A while ago, they
were defiant.
