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. Ferguson Dahlia
and roses the dahlias being especially
fine; by Mrs. Sanders carnations; by
Mrs. C. J. Fulton various entries, es
pecially sweet peas, Mrs. Fulton's en
tries being numerous and excellent;
by Mrs. B. If, Vidalin passion flow
er; by Mrs. Hustler some line petun
ias; by Mrs. G. Ziegler red sweet
peas and roses; .Miss Elizabeth
Claser, begonia.
I Some line apples and green peaches
were shown by II. A. Cameron, of
Knappa, The apples were of fine qual
ity; Mrs. John Erickson also showed
sonic apples; E. S, Deaiie of Warren
ton, "shows some 'strawberries, and L.
S. Lou nt.be rry has a nc exhibit of
berries and other things. ' ?

of the contract had not been lived up
to, But an even more surprising thing
happened yesterday, A request was
made to the Regatta committee, by
Mr, Arnold, that a ruling be passed
that for the remainder of the Regatta
an effort be made to stop the sale of
confetti. 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,!

and weight and the Americans the
lack of the same requisite. 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

Men Past Sixty in Danger. 1
More than half of mankind over 60
years of age suffer from kidney and
bladder disorders, usually enlarge
ment of prostate glands. This is
both painful and dangerous, and
Foley's Kidney Cure should be taken
at the first sign of danger, as it cor
rects irregularities and has cured
many old men ot this disease. Mr.
Rodney Burnett, Rockport, Mo.,
writes: I suffered, with enlarged
prostate gland and kidney trouble
for years and after taking two bottles
of Foley's Kidney Cure, I feel bet
ter than I have for twenty years, al

The worth of Electric Bitters as a
general .family remedy, for headache,
biliousness and torpor of the liver
ind bowels is so pronounced that I
am prompted to say a word in its
favor, for the benefit of those seeking

more health for the digestive organs
in a bottle of Electric Bitters than in
any other remedy I know of." Sold
