BODY OF FISHERMAN PICKED
UP YESTERDAY MORNING
AT COHASSET BEACH.
' Through the courtesy of the United
Wirele Station on Smiths Point in
this city, the Astorian is advised of
the finding, of the body of a man, un
known, and unidentified in any way
as iyet, on Cohasset ' Beach, near
Westport, Wash,, yesterday morning,
by the Ocean Park Life Saving crew
under Captain Connick. ' -
.The body is in a very m state of
preservation, with the exception of a
bad bruise or cut over the right eye,
and evidently had not been in the
water very long. The man was of
very heavy build, about five feet and
eight inches in height, with a brown
moustache; there were leather hip
boots on the cadaver, and it' is
thought there that he was a fisher
man by the name of Alfred Johnson
who was reported lost on Tuesday
night last near the entrance to
Gray's Harbor.
The Coroner took charge of the
remains yesterday afternoon and will
prosecute all legal inquiries in due
course, The man was probably 40 or
45 years of age.
The news of this finding was sent
out by the Westport wireless agent
direct to the Astoria station.
Shipped It Back
The Callcndcr Navigation Com
pany, of this city, yesterday received
r wire from the National Supply
Company, of Los Angeles, owners of
the 784 feet of eight-inch iron piping,
which, arrived here in July last, for
the Gas & Oil Company, of Deep
River, and which has been on their
hands ever since the failure of that
concern through the wrongful manip
ulations of its meneral manager, Mr.
Lee, now in hock at Portland, to ship
the stuff back to thwn via the steam
ship Roanoke yesterday, and would
have done so but the steamer was
loaded to the guards and could not
take it. It will go forward on the
Geo. W. Elder next week.

forts at the mouth of the Columbia
river, including Stevens, Columbia

that rank in the service, and is said
to be one of the most accomplished
tacticians in the army, as well as
brilliant electrician. He has been
lately doing special service at one of
the great forts in the harbor of New
York. It is not known just what time
he will report out here for duty,
probably earjy, in October.
The Finest Ever
George C. Flavel has ju. returned
from the great Horse Show at Port
land, and declares it to have been
the best exposition of fine stock, in
cluding everything rated under that
title, from dainty high-bred poultry
to smashing broadsided Clydesdales
and Holsteins, he has ever seen in
Oregon and especially of Oregon pro
duction. Mr. Flavel says it hard to
estimate the extraordinary advance
that has been made in the culture "of
all manner of livestock in this state,
and that the realization of it is con
ducive to a real pride.
Sumps Must Be Whole
The new order from the postal de
partment has gone into effect requir
ing that all stamps used in the trans

duty to carry. Blemished, or torn
stamps of all denominations, no mat
ter how slightly they are abused, Will
be rejected and the matter they are
attached to will be posted at th
various offices where mailed, for two
weeks after detection. It is not known
yet if they are redeemable as under
the old regulations, but it is presum
ed they are, as Uncle Sam generally
makes good all such things so long as
the necessity arises in good-faith.

Other Criminal Cases ' ' .
There are two other criminal cases
set for trial at this term of the cir
cuit court, namely, the case of the
state against Eniil Janssen, the Bel
gian who cut several Hindus, and the
case against Charles Bcrtleson, the
saloonkeeper who is accused of hav
ing pointed a loaded revolver at Po
lice Officer Houghton. The Janssen
case is set for September 30, and the
Bcrtleson case for October 7. C. J.
Curtis is attorney, for' both the de
fendants. It is presumed that in the
Bertleson case the defense may en
deavor to show that the police officer
had no right to make the arrest, es
pecially without a warrant, and that
therefor he may have been justified in
resisting. , '
GRAND JURY MAY LOOK
JTO OLSEN'S DEATH
MATTER' IS EXPECTED TO
COME UP TODAY FOR
CONSIDERATION.
Johannes Hjorteland, the man who
shot and killed his hunting compan
ion near the Necanicum postoffice on
Wednesday, mistaking him for a deer,
may have to answer to the grand jury
for the accident which flicked out the
life of Albert Olsen. .
It is understood that the grand
jury is preparing to take up the mat
ter today, and yesterday a number of
subpoenes were sent to the Seaside
and Necanicum districts presumably
for witnesses in the matter.
That the slaying of Olseri was
purely accidental no one doubts in
the least., Yet the right of the grand
jury to investigate the matter is, of
course, entirely clear, and it is said to
be possible that a true bill for
Hjorteland might be returned charg
ing him with manslaughter.
So numerous have these accidental
deaths been in Oregon that there
seems an imperative need of some
deterrent means to enforce greater
precautions on the part of careless
hunters. '
To shoot at some object in the
woods, not knowing whether it is a
cow, a man, or some wild animal,
seems so criminally careless to the
ordinary citizen that to many it
seems high time that such matters be
at least investigated with the greatest
of care i .. "
The grand jury did not yesterday
consider this matter and others that
it intends to take up because of the
fact that the prosecuting attorney and
his assistant were busy in court with
the Casey trial.

WAflTOH SLAUGHTER OF
ELK FOR TEETH
SEVEN FINE ANIMALS SLAIN
AND CARCASSES LEFT UN
TOUCHED, SAVE THE JAWS
There has been a' shameful thing de
veloped in this county during the
past few days; one that calls for the
interposition of the law and the in
tcrest of the Elk craft in this State.
A group of Portland "huntsmen"
(save the mark!) headed by a party
by the name of C. L Doty (a saloon
keeper, and a reputed Elk), number
ing seven in all, has been in the
N'ehalem woods for a week or ten
days past, running down Elk, killing
seven of the rare and noble animals
and leaving hair, hide and.mcat, while
they carried away every tooth borne
in the jaws of the seven big beasts.
This may be alright, since it was
done in the month granted for such
rt-ork in the law setting up the ten-
year prohibition against the killing of
this game; but, to the ordinary lay
man, it looks like a piece of unparal
leled hoggishness, and a concession
to the cheap and niggardly spirit of
traffic rarely met with in men who
are presumed to be above such prac
tices; These facts have been gathered
from the utterances of the party en
gaged in the work and there is some
strong comment going the rounds
here in regard to work done by these
people that may eventuate in an in
vestigation, that will demonstrate
the sheer difference between ivanton
slaughter and sportsmanlike killine of
great game.
Card of Thanks.
Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Sinnott and
family wish to return their sincere
thanks the Knights of Columbus and
friends who extended their sympathy
and kindness during their late be
reavement,
