OCEAN, BAR,
BAY,
A letter was received in this city
yesterday by Conrad Lelanc, the
well known shipping agent for the
vessels bearing the flag of France,
from the master of the French bark
Alice Marie, Captain Cloartre, who
left this port in the spring fleet of
1908, for Liverpool with wheat, in
which cheerful epistle the French
captain informs his friend that he is
about to sail for Antwerp and has
hope of being ordered back to the
mouth of the Columbia again. So
far so good. On Tuesday morning last
the French bark General Foy, wheat
laden for Europe departed from this
port, and on her way out her mas
ter, Captain Tatevin, informed Mr.
Leblanc that he had just received a
letter from his wife, in France, tell
ing him of the total loss of the bark
Alice Marie on the' coasts of the
Isle of Man, on her way to Antwerp;
and thus it will be seen that Captain
Cloartre's happy deductions as to
his next voyage were blasted. The
ship sank in SO fathoms of water
after going on the rock of Manx, but
her officers and crew were saved by
the lifesavers that swarm on those
shores. ,
' The Kamm liner Lurline did not
get down last evening until after 9
o'clock owing to pressure of shore
business between Portland and this
port and left up at 10 o'clock with

representative of the Wisconsin Cen
tral Railway system; E. Wood,
Mrs. M. J. Johnson, Miss Gage, Mrs.
Honeyman and Mrs. Conday. ' ,.,

to sail from Tillamook Bay at 6

OLD CEMETERY
SEVERAL ARE DISINTERRED
SOME INTERESTING FACTS
ABOUT OLD CEMETERY
Recently the Common Council has
been asked to ' grant permission to
disinter several bodies buried in the
old City or Hillside cemetery, and
to have them buried again in the
Ocean View cemetery, and these re
quests are uniformally granted upon
certain few and proper conditions,
Yesterday Max Pohl commenced the
work of disinterring three bodies.
They have been buried there for ap
proximately 35 years , and the disin
terment brings So light some inter
esting and peculiar facts. In the case
of bodies buried for many yetuM in
this ground little is found as in the
present case but the whitened
bones dnd some - of the clothing;
perhaps, too, some of the hair will
still be in evidence. The woodwork
of the coffins does not last long in
the very wet ground in the Hillside
cemetery, for Mr. Pohl says that
there are numerous springs in the
cemetery and the whole, place is
saturated with moisture. '
In one or more cases where bodies
have been exhumed there after hav
ing been buried only a comparatively
few years, the coffins would be found
filled with water, and this "water
tended to preserve the bodies in
quite a remarkable way. About six
years ago the body of a woman was
exhumed, and it was found to be in
a state' of perfect petrification just
like stone, and weighing perhaps 600
or 800 pounds. ,
In the new cemetery Ocean View
it is said that bodies, soon are dis
integrated in the sands of that bury
ing ground, and this rapid return of
dust to dust will perhaps, be more
to the liking of the average person
who has gone to the bourne from
whence there is no return. Some
bodies . evidently last longer than
others, it is said a subject that was
well discussed by the grave-diggers
in Hamlet.
'It is stated that there are' still
many bodies in the old Hillside cem
etery,, and perhaps it will never be
possible to find some of the graves
and bodies. Head-boards have rotted
and vafious other markings have
disappeared; in some cases there will
never be any request to move bodies
for the reason that all the relatives
are dead and friends have moved
away or have perhaps even forgot
ten the dead that arc buried there.
It is understood that the grave yard
now is owned by the city, but there
seems to have been a clause in the
original dedication which stated that
the tract, should revert to the Shively
estate in case the land should ever
be used for other than cemetery purposes.'"-

Oct. 28. A lack of knowledge of the

of the Constitution of the United

EGATTA FEUBGESHRE
ALL AUDITED
COMMITTEE ASCERTAINS RE
CEIPtS WILL JUST ABOUT
EQUAL EXPENDITURES
At a meeting of the Regatta com
mute held in the Chamber of Com
merce last night the accounts of the
annual event in August- were gone
over for the last time. It was found
that ' the receipts will just about
equal the expenditures. ;
-Approximately $8tHX) was secured
by subscription, and of this sum
$2175 was secured from out of town.
While the receipts were just about
$8000, the expenditures will take, vir
tually all of that, so that there will
probably be nothing left over for
next year. The secretary win ne
prepared within a few days to an
nounce all of the detailed receipts
and expenditures.
The Re'gaMa cost the city about
$6000 and the other $2000 was secur
ed in Portland and other places. It
is estimated by members of the com
mittee that the Regatta brought from
$40,000 to- $50,000 into the city, and
if thise be true the Regatta is cer
tainly a paying matter from the fi
nancial side. Of the $8000 spent by
the Regatta committee it is stated
that perhaps 95 per cent of this was
spent at home.
With the exception of a few small
accounts the entire business is now
closed up. It is said, however, that
the man who conducted the tugs of
war has retained a lawyer and is
about to sue the committee, alleging
that he had never been paid for hi
services. -.

Old Sandy Hook Light ShipsTo Be
Put Out Of Business.
NEW YORK, Oct. 28.-On De
cember 1, the old Sandy Hook light
shin which for half a century has
marked the western, end ,of .he trans'
Atlantic travel, will go out of exis
tence and the name will never ap
pear on the logs of the ships cros'
sing the ocean. In place of the old
ship will be an entirely new one, and
on its side will be painted the words,
"Ambrose Channel." The old land
mark, or rather sea mark, will dis
appear and the name that has for
half a century been one of the most
prominent in the annals of naviga
tion will disappear forever. The on
ginal lightship was anchored in its
place more than 50 years ago and the
present vessel was put into commis
sion in 1892. When it was decided
two years ago that the present ship
would not last much longer, a new
one was ordered and has, now' been
completed. "With the opening of the
new Ambrose Channel ships will not
approach within three miles of San
dy Hook and for that reason an un
sentimental lighthouse board has de
cided to substitute its name for the
old and honored one of Sandy Hook
The board is prepared for all sorts
of protests from those who 'wish to
cling to the old amc but has fully
decided that the navigators must ,use
the new one. There will be no change
in the lights or fog signals.
