Alaskan waters. All were well on

shortly after midnight on rrmay,
they ran into a succession of high
jrusts and heavy seas, which carried
away everything movable from th
Columbine's decks and smashed in
the upper housing. All hands were
. on watch through the night of Fri
day, and when she was snugly
berthed at the Ninth street dock,
Ccptain-Richardson made his way
instanter to his cory home on the
Leis and Clark, where a warm wel
come awaited him and he had the
chance to catch op in bh sleep.

EDITOR HD0 11
FOR C0U.il
ANOTHER SLIGHT SURPRISE
IS THAT J. F. BOWERS WILL
OPPOSE MR. BELLAND
i Editor Fred Karinen of the Fin
jnish newspaper,, the I.n.inrn I'utiset,
j will again be a candidate for the
; common council from the First ward
Tjfor the two-year term. Mr. Karinen
; nau announced ms determination
i not to run, but friends have appealed
'to him to make the race and yestcr-
! uay a petition asking him to run as
i an Independent candidate was filed
m the othee of the city auditor.
I-ater in the afternoon Mr, Karinen
formally accepted the nomination h;
'petition,
i Fi J. Carney is Mr. Karincn's op
ponent, and both of these gentlemen
are well known.
Another slight surprise in the no
luteal affairs of the city was the
nomination by petition yesterday af
ternoon of John J". Mowers as a can
didate on the Independent ticket for
the council from the Fourth ward
for the four-year term. This makes
Mr. Bowers the opponent of Mr,
Belland. Mr. Bowers i the chief
engineer at the Clatsop mills. He has
resided in Astoria about a dozen
year and he believes there is a large
number of cittrens in the Fourth
ward who wih that there be two
candidates in the field.
Mr. Bowers, and his friends, unite
in saying that there is nothing
against Mr. Belland in any way ex
cept that his enforced absence from
the city several months out of the
year militates from his perfect use
fulness as a councilman.
THROWS MONEY TO BIRDS
It is generally conceded that thea
trical people, particular)" those who
are connected with the business staff,
are spendthrifts when it conies to
advertising. Nearly every showman
has his hobby to attract public at
tention to his play and various
methods are adopted to sway the
public. But what appears to be a
unique method of spending money by
theatrical publicity was invented by
Elmer Walters practically throwing
to the birds. Mr. Walters, among
other successful plays, is the owner
of "A Millionaire Tramp," and, as
the title suggests a spendthrift. Mr.
Walters, six years ago. conceived the
idea of having his millionaire vaga
bond throw money from a carriage
on the day of the show.
Every day during the season Mr.
Walters' idea is put into execution,
the advertising scheme having won
the show many friends. It never
occurred to Mr. Walters to figure the
amount of money actually thrown in
to the street since the initial per
formance of the play until, questioned
as to the amount by a newspaper
man, date books and daily reports
of expenditures were gone over for
six years and total amount figured
just $132.10; $2205 a year, or an av
erage of $9 per day.

coming colors. A light luncheon was
