made a brave how and assisted much
In, keeping thing In order, "Then
utile four of Astoria' police officcri,
whose bright button, natty, uniform
and familiar facc were greeted with
many t nod of recognitlt from
friends along the "street. Following
these wa Judge Trenchard, who led
De Caprio'i band. Then came a com
pany of blue uniformed loldiers from
ort Steven, with Captain Percy
Willi, of soldierly bearing, leading
them. A usual the regular attracted
attention, for il teems as if no gath
ering of Americana can look upon the
regular! with their uniform of tra
ditional blue without feeling interest
ed and impressed. Following the
regular came the First Company, the
Aloria representative of the Na
tional Guard, and not the (lightest
disparagement of .the- regular i
meant when it is said the Astoria
boy lout nothing in comparison with
the professional loldicr immediately
to their front. PerhBp there were
many who also believed that the
khaki uniform worn by the guards
men looked even better and more
natty than did the regulation blue
uniform worn by the regulars,
Then came Queen Hattie and little
ripples of applause met , her and her
maid where ever she appeared. Her
maid occupied five carriages.
Next came Mayor Wise and the
member of the common council in
carriages. Other city official also
were with them. These were follow
ed by the Regatta committee in white
uniforms, flccklessly white, indeed,
and they won much favorable com
ment by their fine appearance. Then
came the Park band, and this was
followed by autos containing the vis
iting sheriffs and their families. Next
followed the ladies of the local Jiac
cabecs, and after them was a carriage
containing I L. Evans, promoter of
the Seaside. electric railway, accom
panied by Mrs. Evan and two of his
engineering assistants. Last of all
were the members of the fire depart
ment with the appatratus, and then
about 25 members of the old volun
teer fire department.
. QUEEN'S RECEPTION.
Hundred of Astoria' representa
tive people attended" the reception
given by Queen Hattie and her maids
in Logan Hall last night, and the
function there wa a brilliant and
pleasing one.
The Queen sat on a dais on the
west side of the hall, with her maids
on either side, and the picture made i,
by the young ladies was a highly
pleasing one.
The fiall was daintily decorated
with bunting and greens, and De
Caprip's orchestra furnished music.
The reception was commenced at 8
o'clock and continued until after 10
o'clock, and during those .hours the
number of people who entered the
ball either to greet the Queen or to
look on the pleasing spectacle were
very many indeed. Despite the in
clemency of the night, it "seemed as if
all the young people in the city, and
most of the elders, wished to attend
the Queen's reception, and those who
didn't go in carriages or automobiles
used the cars or walked. Following

THE COUNTRY DANCE.
After all, there's nothing like the
country dance at least that' what
score and hundred seem to think in
Astoria each Regatta time, Thit Re
gatu the country dance i being held
in the Lurtine hall, near the water
front on Eleventh street, and last
night the place wa simply packed,
filled, jammed, with an eager, happy
lot of folks, young and old.
Early in the afternoon they began
coming (o the dance, by two and
three and even singly, and the rain

rade outside-rnothing seemed to in
terfere with the joy that many seem
ed to find in gliding about on the
floor of the Lurlinc hall.
Last night one. of the men at, the
door aid there were about 300 men
had paid admissions during the danc
ing after supper, while it was esti
mated that fully 500 ladies had enter
ed the hall during the night dancing,
Rut it was early then, and those fig
ure undoubtedly would have to be
doubled if a query had been made
about 2 or 3 o'clock this .morning.
Generally speaking the pcrsonnc
of the dancers seemed to be of the
kind that warrants such a dance be
ing given; nice young people, many
from the country and many from the
city, while all the visitors in town

save only a few who were up at the
Irving club were there for a moment
or an bout, The dance will be con
tinued this afternoon and tonight and
again tomorrow afternoon ad night.
. THE WATER SPORTS.
The Astorian was not able to se
cure any official list last night of the
winners in the water sports of yester
day, and if there was any such an
official list made there were scores of
others who' also were desirous of
something about it and were not able
to do so. The Regatta headquarters
closed up early last night and hence
there was no place left for enquirers
to go on. this and other matters. Last
night about 10 o'clock one member
of the Regatta committee said that as
far a he knew there also had been no
prizes awarded in the parade com
petition, though there being no floats
in the parade the money prize na
turally would not be awarded.' When
became of the floats that have been
frequently announced as entered it
not explained. . .
, This is said to be the first Regatta
in years that the secretary has hot
been given the assistance of, at least
several men to help him in his ardu
ous and perplexing duties," and the
result seems to be that many little
details that need looking after are al
lowing to drift along as best they
may. t .... .,."xX.:.
Following is an incomplete list of
the water events' of yesterday as

After diligent inquiry the Morning
Astorian yesterday found a young
friend and companion of the unhappy
victim of the high-diving accident
yesterday, by the name of Glenn
Darling, who is an accomplished art
ist in the E. J. Arnold line-up of tal
ent here, Mr. Darling was with Mr.
Sullivan, who wa killed, for a day
or two, and learned that the diver
came from a family in which that
specialty is a profession, and that he
was learning the work, but had not
progressed as fas as his sisters and
brothers (one of the brothers, by the
way, being due to arrive here tomor
row on a similar mission), and that
the work he had engaged to do yes
terday for the sum of $25 was under
taken as much to try out his advanc
ing skill as to earn an honest dollar.
wr. uarnng says the young man
was not broke in the strict sense of
that word, but was shy his growing
expenses and needed the money bad
ly. He also avers that Sullivan was
not drinking on Wednesday night nor
yesterday morning, in deference to
the dangerous task ahead of him, and
he knows that what befel him was not
due to such Cause.
Sullivan was notably nervous when

THIS IS BABY DAY.
The greatest element of family in
terest at this, or any subsequent, or
antecedent, Regatta is, was, and will
e, of course, the Baby-Show. The
isplay of dainty Astoria infancy
which will be made at the Stadium, at
Eighth and Commercial streets this,
Friday, afternoon, will be well worth
the devoted inspection of every soul
in the city. There are more hand
some,, sturdy, smart, and winning
babies to the block in Astoria than
any city of her size in the United
States, and this is an especially finjg
year for babies here. Those who miss
the baby-show will regret it the
longest day they live. And if anyone
thinks that Chairman Frank Carney
don't know what he is about and
bat his aides won't stand by him in
all his troubles, let them be at the
demonstration this afternoon.
A Racing Mishap-
During the afternoon exercises and
events.off shore yesterday, one of the
Portland sloops, whose name was not
learned, went over in : the strong
breeze that was making things inter
esting, and for a moment there was
consternation in the grandstand and
along the whole waterfront, but the
ubiquitous life-savers, who were at
the time giving one of their interest
ing performances for the benefit of
the great crowd, broke' away instantly
and went to the distressed craft and
in a few moments she was again on
the course and her -crew none the
worse for the ducking.
hegot on the main topsail yard of the
Donna Francesca, and made several
movements for the dive, before turn
ing it, at last, to a leap. He shot
down straightly enough until he was
about on a level with the ship's rail,
when his rigidity gave way and his
body swung to a tangent, his feet
wide apart and by the time he struck
the water he was all awry and the
blow was taken by the whole body.
If he came to the surface again no
one on shore could verify the fact
though there are many who were
afloat who claim that he arose just
once after the terrible impact. Be
that as it may, the poor young fellow
is in the shifting depths of the Co
lumbia tides and will come to the
sight of man when nature so wills it,

Chronic Diarrhoea Relieved.
llr. Edward E. Henry, with the

writes:
"Our General Superintendent, Mr.
Quick, handed me a bottle of Cham
berlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea ,
Remedy some time ago to check an
attack of the, old chronic diarrhoea.
I have used it since that time and
cured many on our trains who have ,
been sick. I am an old soldier who

It may be that Sullivan was badly
upset by the tale told him ten min
utes before going aloft, by the sailors
of the Donna Francesca, namely, of
the funeral boat that had just gone by
with flags at half mast and her decks
black with mourning friends; at all
events 'he was plainly perturbed about
something when he went aloft.
There is very general sorrow
throughout the ranks of pleasure

dreadful happening, and it is hoped
that on the arrival of Mr. Sullivan's
brother tomorrow, light 'may be
