Jesse. West; Harry Larson, Kenny Wren and Chester Wheeler. They left out on Wednesday, August 19th, and have loafed their way down, en joying the trip immensely. The "Pee kaboo will enter the sloop races in Class C, and is the first boat entered. She reports the following fleet en route and strung along the Columbia and due to arrive today, namely: the Synamox," "Terrier," "Dancing Girl," "Fore & Aft," "Anona," "Corsair," "Naiad," "McBarbee and "Aeolus. Captain Wicklund, of the Point Adams life-saving station, was in the city yesterday on matters of business, Mrs. Wicklund accompanying him, and he reports that his crew will figure in the Regatta events on Thurs day and Saturday, giving flie usual thrilling and interesting drills of the service; and that the Cape Disap pointment crew, under Captain Stuart will figure prominently, along the same line, on Friday. One of the older and lighter boats of the service will be put in prime order for the dis plays, as the motor boats are too heavy for the work in mere course of display. It is needless to say the ex hibitions will be as fascinating as ever in the hands of these highly trained and clever crews. Commissioner C. S. Dow is very anxious to have a brilliant display of cut flowers as part of the exhibit he is in charge of at the court house; and to this end, he will, tomorrow, dis patch a team to the home of any As toria lady who will contribute to this, and advise him of her purpose, and address. There will, without doubt, be generous response to his call. NOBBY CLOTHIER I MM MM MM IHIMIMMIMM1 Land Parade Features For Thursday, August 27.

Prices, 25c, 1 35c 75c. the street car company is notified of a bad place near McGregor mills. Notice was served upon the Astoria electric street car company yesterday by James F. Kearney, superintendent of streets, that the foundation under the street car tracks between Thirty eighth and Forty-second streets is in pretty bad shape and that it may be unsafe to run cars there until repairs are made. ,Danicl F. McGee, general superin tendent of the street car company, said tast evening that the company will make no attempt to run heavy cars over the bad place until the street foundations have been placed in thorough repair again. Mr. McGee made an inestigation of the place last evening, and then said that the outlook is not very bad. He said that while some repairs will hve to be made, that there is no ap parent need of stopping traffic and that therefor the company will run a light car over the tracks there. Of couyse if there was the slightest rVinncc for an arcirlpnt. , Mr , MVOpp' naturally woi.'d be the first one who should want to stop the traffic, and his intention to run the cars probably is a sure indication that passengers need not be alarmed. Mr. McGee also said that work will be commenced by the company at once to make the repairs, as the company can hardly wait for the city to get to work, though the responsibility of doing the work real ly, lies with the cjtjr. , -i At the meeting of the council when the trouble was grsf reported it seem ed to be the impression of some of the councilmcn that the bad places were in that portion of the structural work over which the street car com pany alone has the duty and responsi bility of making repairs. But accord ing to Mr. McGee, the decayed places, which weaken and render the passage of street cars somewhat unsafe, are entirely in that part of the foundations orer which the city alone has juris diction and the responsibility of mak ing repairs; that is, that the bad places are formed by the rotten piles and rotten cappingg. It is probable the city will have to reconstruct the entire highway for several blocks, if the re pairing is to be done with any degree of thoroughness. . BURNS NOW AFTER JOHNSON. SYDNEY, N. S.
