FISHED ALL SUMMER WITHOUT LICENSE TWO SEINERS ARE UNDER AR REST, BUT OFFER AN UN USUAL DEFENSE X. Two itrests have been made for alleged violation of the fbhiry laws that are entirely different from all the other numerous cases. Tom Tay lor and Tom Spencer Jiave been ar rested by W. A. Mack, the water bail iff and game; and fish warden, on the charge of operating ,seines without licenses. Mention of these two cases was made in these columns several days ago, but the details of the mat ter, as gained 'from Mr. Mack last night, make the matter of consider able interest. k Acording to Mr. Mack, these two men have operated their seines at the Tongue Point and Cabot grounds all summer long without licenses which, if true, seems a peculiarly bold thing to do. The licenses cost only $45 each for seines, while the. fine is from $50 to $500. The two men, however, set up a defense as to themselves. They say that at the commencement of the season they deposited the, amount of their licenses with the Grant-Tallant Company, for whom they were oper ating, and they aver that it was and has been their understanding that this money was applied as intended in se curing licenses for them. Yet the fact remains, according to the State fishery records according to Mr. Mackthat no licenses were secured for these men. Thus it appears that by some error or inadvertence the men failed to se 'cure their licenses, if it be true that their money was fianded over to the company. ' NOT ORIGINAL INTENT Old Spanish Mines Exploded in New York Harbor By Authorities , y NEW YORK, Sept. 19.-Three "of the mines which were put in New York harbor at the time of the Spanish-American war and have lain in the magazine at Fort Wadsworth ever since they were officially con demned, have been exploded. This took place at the Narrows, near the fort. No boats were allowed to pass that way at the time, the " places where the mines were being marked off by floating targets. The only evidence the spectators got from the explosion was about a thousand stunned fish-fluke, black fish and flounders which were seen floating directly, in front of the fort after the mines had been set off. , The soldiers got into small boats at once and every one of them went back to quarters with, a good catch for Fri day. One 'soldier" got 200, The de struction of the mines was conducted by Captain J. Allen, who is in charge of the fort troops. CLATSOP POT BBS TO Hi . CALL FOR MEETING AND OR GANIZATION OF REPUBLI CANS OF THIS SECTION The Republicans of "Old Clatsop" will at ouce begin operations for the furtherance of the party's interests in this part of the commonwealth as they relate to the presidential elec tion which occurs ju.st 45 days hence. To this end the following call is ut tered by the gentlemen signing it, in this behalf, towit: , "We, the undersigned Republicans of Astoria, believing in the principles of Republicanism, and that the party interests can be advanced by the or gamzation ot a Kepubiican club in this locality, hereby enroll ourselves for that purpose, and agree to attend a meeting of .the, Chamber of Com merce on the 19th day of September, 1908, for perfecting an organization "F.

There is no manner of doubt that the city and county will ring up their old-time majorities for the great son of Ohio and the friend and type of the present chief executive. A "DEHYDRO" DINNER Reversion to Seaweed the Next Step in Food Culture WAUKESHA, Wis., Sept. 19. That the process of dehyration may solve the food problem of the world when the population shall have ex ceeded the food productivity of the earth, by turning the seaweed of the great , Saggossa Sea into a valuable food product, was the theory ad vanced by udge M. S. Griswold at a "dehydro" banquet given yesterday. The banquet, which was the first of the kind ever served in the world, was prepared by Miss C. A. Lyford, a domestic science expert' of the State Normal University at Bloomington, 111. Addresses were made by Louis Muench, President A. J. Frame, of the Waukesha National Bank; Dr. Hugo Phillip, Prof. E. B. Hutchlns, of Carroll College, and others.

' "FIGHTING THE ACCIDENT Oil THE II EHALEfJ LOUIS LARSON LOSES LEFT ARM SY EXPLOSION OF A RIFLE CARTRIDGE Yesterday afternoon at an early hour Louis Laron, a cousin of J. C Ricroon, of the Nchalem, and an em ploye on that gentleman's farm, ar" rive'd in this city with his left eye gone as the result of a bad accident in the woods near his home on Wed nesday evening last. Young Larson, who is but 24 years of age, was out hunting, and in load ing his rifle did not securely close the break, and when the hammer fell the cartridge exlpodcd through the break and caught his left eye full with the charge, knocking that member out completely. , Mr. Larson was game enough to stand by his post on the" farm even under the severe stress of the pain, as there were several smalt children in his care aside from the home inter ests, but he was compelled by the constantly increasing pain and in flammation to abandon the place to the custody of the oldest son of Mr. and Mrs. Rierson, a lad of 16 years, and seek medical assistance. H Icame in and visited a physician, who immediately ordered him to Portland for treatment, and he left up on the evening train. Mr. and Mrs. Rierson were due to return to this city last evening and perhaps passed the young man on the way; at any rate, it is an unhappy state of affairs for all concerned.
