Were a Hungry Lot- Many of the members of the First Company went hungry during the parade on the opening day of the Regatta, and yesterday several of ihcm were not backward in voicing their disapproval of the way- things went. They were instructed to make their abearance at 12:30 o'clock, and did so with military promptness, but it was two hour later before the pa rade started, ' Meantime many of the boys, who had missed their dinners in their efforts to be there on time, were pecting to get "a one mere, ana while the regulars were willing to greet them with open arms, the men say that they were given the glassy stare and the cold hand by those in charge.

The Governor icft up for the Capital City on last evening's 6:10 express. y Thejr Have Rooms , There arc several beaut'ful rooms at St. Mary's hospital that the Sisters arc prepared to rent to guests, on oc casions like the Regatta, and for those who have difficulty in securing nice rooms elsewhere these rooms should prove quite attractive. Although in the hospital they are in quiet places and have every convenience. These rooms will be rented at reasonable rates, and while not cheap, they are iu-t the kind that nice people -in search of rooms would rish to get. Broke Hi Wrist- Yesterday, shortly after noon, Mer rill Henderson, a bright young barber in the employ of the Occident Barber Shop, while walking in the rear of the hotel, slipped on the wet plank iug of the yard and broke both bones on his left forearm, badly. .He was taken at once to Dr. A. A. Finch who treated the broken limb, and at evening the unfortunate young man was resting easily, and nourish ing the hope that he might be ableto leave out for his San Francisco home on the steamship Rose City, this af ternoon, which he will probably do if tie is at all able to do so. Out On Bail- Charles J. Bertelson. manager of the Warwick saloon on Commercial street, failed to show up in police court yesterday afternoon and his bond was declared forfeited. Judge Anderson at once issued a bench war rant and placed it in the hands of Police Officer Houghton with instruc tions to have Bertelson In court Mon day afternoon at 3 o'clock Bertelson is the man who pulled a gun on Police Officer Houghton, when, according to the officer's story, he found a woman iii one of the little rooms in the sa . .. . loon. The policeman prevailed upon the saloon man to drop his gun and fubmit to arrest. It is said that tatc warrant will also be issued against him for pulling his revolver on the officer. Busiest Woman In Clatsop Dr. B. Owens-Adair came in from her Sunnymead farm yesterday, and as usual she was, armed with the signal 'thing that most interested her ffr the moment, to-wit, a'magnificcnt bundle of oats of three months' growth, six feet and three inches in length from the stem-cut to the heads and rich with grains, which she im mediately took to the county fair-and filed as her home contribution to the fine Clatsop exhibit there. This done, and variousand sundry other duties disposed of, - the doctor went the rounds of the Regatta amusements and put in a happy day wijh the friends she met at every, turn. She wound up at the baby show where her pleasure for the daj, so far as the city went,' culminated and she took the train to the west side in time for her home dinner. , , Convention of Sheriffs The convention of the Oregon Sheriffs was held yesterday morning at the county court room'and while the session was brief, it was soundly and wholly business-like from start to finish. After disposing of such ALEX TAG G Ice Cream 25c qt.

Bcatie, of Clackamas county, The convention then adjourned sine die, and the congregation scattered about the city to enjoy the program of the day in the way of Regatta events They are as fine a bod of men as will be found anywhere in the State, and are a -representative lot of real Ore goniats. Ha Fine Feature Clcnn Darling, who is the top-liner in the Stadium tent, just east of the court house, Is doing a trick that many will be interested itvseeing. He permit himself to be locked in a steel cage, after being handcuffed or tied with ropes by members of the audience, and then makes his escape from the manacles and the steel cage with comparative ease. The opening night of (the Regatta he was tied so tightly by ropes, and by men who know how to tie ropes, that he still bean the marks of the cords around his arms and wrists, and yet it took him but a few minutes to free himself. Like his famous fellow worker, Hou dini, who has amazed the world with the ease with which he can escape from any manacles that police or others can place upon him, Darling takes pleasure in his work and tonight an especialy effort will be made by several to see if they can't "beat him at his own game." Minister In Court At the session of the police court yesterday afternoon there were three "drunks" who stood in the prisoners' docket to ansewr for their delinquen cies. Two of them pleaded guilty, while the third indicated as best he might that he could not speak"" the language of the court. But the con dition of his clothes was of Itself suf ficient indication what his offense had been, and this, added to the testimony of the arresting officer, was deemed sufficient to convict him. Each was given a light fine. The men were well dressed and looked like fishermen who had taken the "first drink" and then had gone on Until they ended in the gutter. Interested spectators of the session of the court were three ministers who are in attendance upon the conference now being held in this city. Evidently they wished to see how justice Is dispensed in Astoria's police court and o view the character of the men who appear there, but it so happened that they saw little of the worst side of the degradation that is often seen there. Nor could the shrieks and hysterical callings be heard just then from an old woman who was in a cell downstairs. She was drunk and had been begging. Fetched Up At Frankfort The Missionary v sloop Guiding Star, for the safety of which there has been more or less trepidaition in this cfty all of Friday last and most of yesterday, in the minds of Rev. Mr. Bemays, .of the . Portland Sea men s Mission, ana otners in toucn with him, was heard from yesterday in haoov fashion in so far as the safety of her master was concerned; for that young man, whose name is Arthur Harding and who is an ap prentice from the British ship Crown of India, arrived in the city yesterday in a fishing boat, from Frankfort, on the Washington shore, where the Guiding Star is beached, after a long and trviiiK cruise down the river: Mr. Harding reports that he made it al right, down as far as the Tongue, on Thursday morning, and then ran into foul weather, and being alone his boat became practically unmanageable. He struggled against wind and water all day long and as luck would have it, drifted into the beach near Frankfort after dark on that evening, with the Star full of water and sinking, and sink she did within the hour of his landing. He groped about in the strangeness and gloom of the place, soaked to the skin, and found a fish erman's home at last, where he was made as comfortable as could be, dry clothes, good food, genial warmth, backed by a friendly welcome could signify it, and after a long night s rest, which greatly refreshed him, he was brought to 'this city on a motor fish boat yesterday, only to find that his friends here had chartered the aunch Queen and had gone up the Columbia river, to search for him. In the meantime the Regatta committee liad taken charge; of Mr. Harding pending the return Of his friends. Wild West Parade.
