When the children, of the Grace
Episcopal Church Sunday school ar
rived at Flavel on the steamer Julia
B. yesterday morning on their way
to the picnic grounds there, it was
discovered that the Flavel docks
were on fire. The crew of the Julia
B went Jo work promptly and' with
the aid of their fire hose soon ex
tinguished the blaze, Had it not been
for the timely arrival of the steamer
it is highly probable that the docks
would have been destroyed. The
origin of the fire is not known. Of
course the fire was all a part of the
day's1 enjoyment for the little folks.

Out For His Health
, J. C- Hayter, editor and proprietor
of the Dallas Observer, over in "old
Polk," spent Saturday and Sunday in

"loaf." He was delighted with the
place and people, but had to tear him
self away last evening, for a return
trip to his home, whence he will go,
very shortly, for a long sojourn in
New Mexico and Texas, on account
of his health he having suffered for
years from throat trouble. He has
leased his paper and business, and
goes forth with the best wishes of
his friends in Dallas, Astoria and all
over Oregon.
Astoria Nimrods
Harry M. Suhrs, the well known
Bond-street tonsorialist, who weighs
about 90 pounds, took his little
nephews, Arthur and Mark Petersen,
and two other local friends, Earl King
and Henry Baack, all featherweights,
out'for a fishing trip on the Lewis &
Clark on Sunday. The boys were very
good and gave their uncle and friend
no trouble at all, until the fish proved
uncatchable, when they soaked their
hooks in a bottle of Artolene (A. E.
Petersen's infallible hair vigor), and
then the trout responded nobly, but
it was noticed the fish had a slight
green hairy fuzz on their, gills when
prepared for cooking, as a result of
the rare and powerful bait used.
Lost In Fog-
Two fishermen of this city whose
names could not be learned, were
lost in the fog on Clatsop spit on
Sunday night and their boat cap
sized. One man clambered on the
keel and hung on for an hour or
more while the other rode the cork
line till he was all but exhausted and
was finally hauled up beside his
companion. They were finally found
and brought in by the life-saving
crew at Point Adams, who also saved
the boat gear and landed it, and after
the same was duly overhauled and
dried out at the station, the men left
out for their fishing ground, after
gratefully thanking Catain Wicklund
and his men for the signal service
rendered them.
Then: Moonlight Excursion
Frank Clark, president of the Co
lumbia Trust Co., Mr. and Mrs. Al
bert' Johnson, started on a pleasure
trip over to Gray's river Sunday morn
ing, and passed the day in a delightful
manner in that vicinity. In the after
noon they started on their journey
homeward", the day's outing was made
in Mr. Johnson s fine little private
yacht "The Hummer." But some
thing happened to "The Hummer" on
the way home. She refused to hum.
Out in the middle of the river, the
two bold, mariners worked at the
engine and worked still some more,
but the "Hummer" kept on refusing
to hum. Finally at about 5 o'clock
yesterday morning, the "Hummer"
arrived in port, about 11 hours over
due on a two hours' trip. Both Mr,
Johnson and Mr. Clark looked quite
sleepy all day yesterday, but both de
nied vehemently that they had had a
narrow escape from a watery grave
Both speak in glowing terms of the
pluck and good cheer of Mrs. John
son, during the enforced outing.

Broke Her Leg
In an attempt to get off the morn
ing train yesterday at Burnside, Mrs.
Fritz Johansen of 243 Taylor street,
this city, is at St. Mary's hospital
suffering with a broken leg. Mrs.
Johansen was in company with her
husband who was going to work at
a small town beyond Burnside, for
the day, and she was to spend the
day at Burnside with friends and meet
her husband on the evening train
back to Astoria. According to Mr.
Johansen when the train reached the
depot at Burnside the coach stopped
a little beyond the platform, and Mrs.
Johansen .attempted to alight from
me piauorm 10 xne grouna oeiow,
that appeared by the grass to be only
a short distance, but the grass was
quite long and as she stepped down,
she fell a distance of about three feet,
breaking her left ankle in two places.
She was carried to a gasoline boat
and was brought to Astoria and
taken to the hospital, where Dr. Ful
ton set the- broken limb. Although
the operation was very painful the
patient was resting easy at a late
hour "last night.
Mr. Seufert Here
Frank A. Seufert of The Dalles, the
magnate of the salmon fishing indus
try above, the Willamette, came
down to Astoria Sunday to spend a
few days in this vicinity. Mr. Seu
fert is contemplating the erection of
a cannery on the northshore, and As
toria may well hope that so able and
progressive a man will come down to
the mouth of the Columbia. It was
Mr. S-ufert that Astoria fought so
hard curing the recent election on
the calmon bills, and though this part
of the State fought him on lhat prop
osition as best it could, it is quite
evident that he is learning from his
pleasant reception here that the an
tagonism was not personal. Nearly
everyone here knows him and thor
oughly appreciates him. He is one
of the few men who has made a deep
and thorough study of the salmon,
and therefore his ideas on the fish
are commomy taicen as autnoruative.
Mr. Seufert avers that before manylance
weeks are over there will be a big
run in the Columbia. He makes this
prognostication in no idle vein, but
bases it on the known habits of the
salmon. This is the fourth year since
a vast number of fry went out of the
river and they are due back now, he
says.
