SATURDAY, AUOUWT 20 ' THE MORNING ASTOIUAN, ASTOMA, OREGON. REGATTA AND RAIN Dl VIDE HONORS (Continued from pags 4) lent. The flower Dhow is lamentably small and hardly ahould be taken at fair indication of what Astoria can do In the way of flower. Yet while the exhibit arc atnull and, apparently have not been a well developed at they might have been, nevertheless a visit to them will be found well worth while, People who are not familiar with what may be grown on Oregon noils will be inflated at the size of lome of the fruit and vegetables shown. The wild unties, and the timothy ant' clover, and also the grain, will also amajie the visitor by their quality and great height. There are turnip that look like enormou cabbages, so big are they, and cabbages that look like well, one must sec for himself. The visitor should not forget to ek Mr. C. S Dow, In charge of the exhibit, to show hint the specimen of bamboo that were grown in Clatsop county, Many are probably not aware of the fact that bamboo may be successfully grown nere. "A am fairly well satisfied with the farm exhibit," said Mr. Dow. "The 'season was late for both grains and vegetable, but the samoles are nrcttv good, Yet despite the bad season one may see for himself juM what may be grown in this county." There is enough variety in the ex hibitt to add interest, and it is I pleasure to see tome beautiful pre serve, with the fruits as bright and beautiful, apparently, a when first "put down." And there is a loaf of bread so white and crisp that it i enough to make -one's mouth water, and perhaps it should create a spirit of emulation in the breasts of other housewives who know they can make bread just as good. At all events there Is assuredly nothing that adds more Interest to an exhibit of this nature than the entries made by. farmers' wives or other housewives. Following is a list of the flower en tries, believed to be a complete one. Dy Dr. Finch Roses and sweet peas; by Mr. J. E.

It Is saiij the Regatta com mittee gave Mr. Arnold ; a vote of thanks for this and took steps to in struct the police to prohibit the sale and use of the confetti. ' To this rul ing various merchant at once raised an indignant proteM,'and they voiced their protest so vigorously that they made themselves heard air over the city. To them it appeared prcpostcr-mis-so they averred that an effort should be made to prevent them from selling an innocent product like the confetti, while the outsiders who have the street concessions are selling any thing that they can get money for. The merchants who were "kicking" stated that they live here the year around and spend their money here,!

The American team were much lighter than their opponents and have not had the opportunity to properly con dition themselves and as a result the contest was short and sweet they be ing pulled over the cleats in one-half a minute. t Great interest was manifested in the pull between Sweden and Fin land. The Finland team won the championship last year the Swedes being third. Determined to' do bet ter this year the Sweden team was strengthened and the contest between these teams was looked upon as the "whole show," The partisans of both teams made themselves much in evi dence as their favorites marched to the platform, by continued applause. When the word "go" was given both teams settled down to business and after a hard pull Sweden gained two inches on Finland and much as their opponents endeavored to overcome the lead no change showed on the in dicator, For fourteen and one-half minutes the immense strain was kept up on the contestants without ; the Finns regaining their lost ground. At a signal from Capt. Stromberg the Swedes made a final effort and within one-half a minutes of the al lotted time for the pull they pulled Finland over the cleats for three feet. Finland' and America ' then pulled, after an interval of about 15 minutes and the Americans were again unsuc cessful in about the same length of time as in their, first contest. ' The results last night are as fol lows: Sweden wins ' once, Finland ; NEW TO-DAY : All Things Modern. .
