"Battleship Day"- Wcdnesday, May 20th, the day on which the' battleships are billed to pass the Columbia bar on their way'to Puget Sound, is peculiarly unfor tunate in the play of its tide, for the operation of the steamers and launches that arc to carry the coast bunting public to the Pacific water front. The morning tide fills at 3:20 o'clock and the evening tide is high at 5. It is low water at 10:22 a. m. and again at 10:45 p. m. This means that the people who intend to go to the front, on either the north or south chores of the bay, must hike out at 4 or 5 o'clock in the morning in order to make their landing below on any ,sort of water. But even thi will not deter the great majority, for most of the clever boatmen about the As toria waterfront will find way to overcome all uch obstacles; and the sign about town are for an immense exodus to the vantage point down that way.

SPERRY'S TELEGRAM AND OUTLINING THE ARRANGE MENTS MADE TO SEE FLEET Manager Whyte of the Chamber of Commerce sent the following letter to Admiral Sperry acquainting him with the preparation being made to see the fleet. He believe that if the fleet knows what we are doing they can shape their course so as to give the spectators the best opportunity to see the entire Armada. May 13, 1908. Admiral Sperry, , Commander Atlantic Fleet, , San Francisco, Calif. Dear Sir:-Please accept the thanks of the Chamber of Commerce for your prompt compliance with their telegraphic requet of May 11th: "Pleasre wire date arrival fleet mouth of Columbia. Can't perfect arrangements without date." As follows: "By direction of the Navy Depart ment you are informed that. the At lantic Fleet is to arrive near the lightship, mouth of the Columbia at noon, May 20th." Mayor Herman Wise has declared a holiday for that day and all busi ness houses will be closed and the public schools in recess. Special railroad excursions will be run from the interior to both lides of the mouth of the river but most of the sightseers will be on the beach at Tillamook Head at Seaside. A road way is being constructed to the top of Tillamook Head so that a large number of sightseers who will go to thi point of vantage may have the best possible facilities and accomo dations. From Tillamook Head up to the south side of the mouth of the Columbia River is what is known as Clatsop Beach and many sightseers from the interior will be gathered along this beach as the railroad runs back of it all the way to Seaside. An excursion has also been ar ranged to take sightseers to the North Head which is the high point at the north side of the mouth of the Co lumbia River. All the available craft in the river will make excursions across the bar and will meet you, the weather being good, several miles out from the lightship. The Chamber of Commerce has chartered the steamer Roanoke and the officers of that organization will be aboard this vessel together with 700 members and passengers. We would be pleased to have the ships come in as near to Tillamook Head, Clatsop Beach, the mouth of the river and North Head as possible so that the many citizens who will be on shore may have a good opportun ity of seeing them. We have a wireless telegraph sta tion here through which we ought to be able to communicate with you up to the time of your arrival. We extend your a cordial invita tion to come aboard the Roanoke and partake of a glass .of champagne with us. We understand that you will not have the time to delay a very great while, therefore we are not ex peeting to prepare any burdensome program of any sort. The Governor of the State, Hon. Geo. E. Chamberlain is invited to be our guest of honor on the occasion, as is also the Mayor of Portland and the Mayor of Astoria. FIFTEEN YEARS OF AGONY. Will You Continue to Suffer From Catarrh in the Face of This Testimony? "I suffered for fifteen years with catarrhal troubles so bad that I had to leave the sea. I could not lie down at night to sleep, on account of the constant catarrhal dropping. I went to two different hospitals for treat ment, but without, any lasting benefit. I was constantly raising yellow and green phlegm, and the trouble was so unbearable and nauseating that I was ashamed to go ' out in company. I have used only two bottles of Hyomei, and have been cured by the remedy. It has made full and com plete recovery." Capt. Willnef. Hyomei is a dry, healing, antisep tic air, extracted from the Eucalyptus groves of Australia. It is a pleasure to use Hyomei, because you do not take' it into the stomach; you simply breathe in this germ-killing air, and relief is immediate, and complete re covery comes in a few days. Hyomei outfit, including an inhaler that will last a lifetime, costs $1.00. If it does not cure your catarrh, asthma, bron chitis, coughs or colds, T. F. Laurin will give you your money back. bVblN 1NUW It Is generally conceded that there is a reason for the Supremacy of Style and Grace of Figure possessed by the ladies whom we all admire.
