many a Regatta season. There was
Jc .confusion, lc trouble of all
sort, and better order and safety and

than has been known for a long time,
and these same people are quietly,
but cordially, thanking the Regatta
committee for the results attained.

Will Continue Trains
General Agent G. B. Johnson, of
the .A. & C railway said yesterday
that he had just received notification
from headquarters that the Saturday
afternoon special train to Seaside, and
the Sunday special to Portland, will
be continued until September 12-13;
and that train No. 24, through to Sea
side at night, would be kept on the
schedules until the 30(h of September.
Asked if he hud been advised of any
special rate to the Oregon State Fair,
September 14-19, he said he had heard
of nothing in that line as yet.
Bad Saloon Fight
A bad fight was reported in an
Italian saloon near the Parker House
restaurant last night. A crowd of the
Italians became involved in a quarrel
and started to settle it by means of a
general knock-down and drag-out
fight. Beer bottles and knives were
freely used and several of the men
were badly cut. When the police
heard of the affray the principals had
gone their several ways, probably
looking for surgeons to sew them up,
and no arrest were made,
f ii the crush and confusion of the
day, yesterday, during the early after
noon, the one and only accident of
this Regatta season, occurred on
Commercial street, when the carriage
tarrying a contingent of the Queen's
court, had the misfortune to run over
a little lad by the name of Deane
Bowers, the five-year-old on of Mr.
and Mrs. J, F, Bowers, of 2232 Com
mercial street, The boy was not able
to dodge the riff owing to the crowd
that hedged him in, and fell under one
wheel, which bruised his right leg
badly but most happily did not break
it, He was carried to the offices of
Dr. A. A. Finch, in the Merwyn
block, and that gentleman soon had
him in shape to be taken to his home,
where, last evening, he was reported
as rest;ng easily.
Met Wrong Man-
While Tolice Officer Linvillc was
just about to speak to nis .wne on
Commercial street last night about 10
o'clock,- passerby stepped up and at
close range threw a handful of con
fetti directly into the officer's face
Some of the bits of paper entered his
mouth and strangled him for a sec
ond, but he recovered in time to see
the man still standing there with
pleasant smile on his face. To him it
apparently was a great joke to thus
insult a police officer. Officer Linville
reached out and with his open palm
knocked the fellow down, and then
gave him a kick that made him nearly
turn a summersault.
A Fine Example-

Are Old Friends
Tom Richardson, manager of the
Chamber of Commerce at Portland,
after participating in the ceremonies
at the city hall in connection with
the Sacngerfest parade, spent most of
the afternoon with Mr. Whyte, of the
locaf chamber of commerce. Mr.
Whyte and Mr. Richardson are old
time friends and have been, together
in various cities. "We are old
friends," said Mr. Richardson, "and
our fathers were and our mothers
were before us." Mr. Richardson is a
man who is accustomed to doing
things and under his management the
Portland Chamber has accomplished
great and lasting work. '.
Spoiled Hia Suit-
It remained for Mr. John H. Whyte
manager of the Chamber of Com
merce, to be the first member of the
Regatta committee, to get his immac
ulate suit soiled. Mr. Whyte got
blood on it. Last night, as he was
going to the Sacngerfest in company
with friends he saw a man striking
and otherwise maltreating a , young
woman a young girl, in fact. Ac
pcording to the accounts of the matter
that were told about the streets last
night Mr. Whyte remonstraed, and in
a moment blows were exchanged. The
rowdy who wa maltreating the girl
got the pummelling that he richly de
served, and it was from his bloody
face that Mr. Whyte got his sprink
ling of blood. The fellow made his
escape in the crowd and the police
were not able to ascertain his identity.

Positive And Peremptory
The following positive and peremp
tory order emenated from the head
quarter office of the Baby Show Com
mittee yesterday evening, signed by
the chairman. Frank J. Carney, and
his" co-conspirator, IT. F. Prael, and
was sent via the constabulary, to
every man who went through the tor
tures of the inspection and judging
f babies on Thursday; and those of
them that are not down with ner
vous prostration, obeyed it: "You are
hereby directed to assemble at Foard
& Stokes' hall at 8 o'clock this, Satur
day evening, to participate in Mac
beth's Wild West Parade and Cir
cus. Carriages have been provided
for the use of the Baby Show commit
tee, and any failure to attend and re
port will result in a fine of $250, to
be collected forthwith."
Fruits And Flowers-
One, of the most popular features of
the entire Regatta has been the agri
cultural and flower display , in the
basement of the court house, and
again yesterday hundreds of people
called to see the flowers and the farm
products. The number of visitors for
both days was really surprisingly
arge, and this seems to demonstrate
pretty thoroughly the interest that is
taken in such matters. Yesterday it
was decided to give many a chance to
see these exhibits who failed to do
so during the Regatta days, and
therefore the place will be kept open
