4 THE MOUSING ASTORIAN, ASTORIA, OREGON, SUNDAY, DECEMBER 13, 1W OCEAN, BAR, BAY, DOCK AND RIVER For mm mis C 1 r" 41 The Lurline was on the dot last evening and when she went up th: river she had on her register, the names of the following welt known people: Dr. D. A. Went worth, G. B. Selfridge and C. J. Knutson, all of this city, While in port last night, the following story leaked out: On the way up the river on Thursday night, last, three men got aboard at Cathlamet, all drunk and with very short change. The sum of wealth mounted to exactly $1 and this was given to Purser Harry Blanchard, or rather his night representative, Mr. Dalglish, and the trio was told to get off at Stella. When the flagship reached that place the gangplank was run out for them, and two of the three went ashore. The third man however was of another notion and refused to leave the deck, and em phasized his refusal with an ugly six-shooter. Sheriff M. R. Pomeroy, of this city and county, happened to be asleep In a stateroom up above and word was passed to him of the difficulty on the lower deck. He immediately went into action and disarmed the thug and carried him ott to Portland, where, in the consul tation that ensued on the way up, the trouble-maker was allowed to go (shore without his weapon and with- j out further molestation, the question j of actual jurisdiction having a good deal to do with the clemency shown in the premise. , The steamship Senator got away from the O. R. & N. piers at 1 o'clock yesterday morning and went to the lower harbor where she laid until 3 o'clock yesterday afternoon when she went to sea and the Cali fornia coast It is not known, gen erally, that a thief was captured on the dock just before she left, but it is so. He had stolen $40 from a fellow passenger and tried to sneak away on the big long pier, but when he reached the dock, be took out from the easterly run of the -timber and when he found himself in the cul-de-sac framed up by the great doors at the end, he gave up and turned the cash over to a friend of the man who had lost it, and was permitted to go back on the ship and continued his voyage to the Bay City. The fine group of young gentlemen representing the customs service in this port are equipped for the winter weather with new rubber cloaks, the official button of the service being conspicuous on the very useful gar ment, the cape coming to the instep and affording complete protection against all kinds of weather, while emphasizing the rank and duty of the wearer. When the Senator went to sea yesterday afternoon, her passenger list showed the following named people from this city: Mrs. Frances Whitman, Mrs. W. D. Fowler, J. F. Browne and Mrs. Margaret Hume, who, after a pleasant sojourn ' with friends and relatives there, for a month, intends to go on to the Sand wich Islands for the winter. ' There is much anxiety in this port over the fate of the Elmore motor boa Gerald C which , left out of Tillamook at 2:30 o'clock p. m. on Friday last. She was caught in the very heart of yesterday's gale, and staunch as she is known to be, there is ever the doubt that she may not make it, even with the wide offing she usually takes. The steamer Alliance will be down this forenoon, Coos bound as usual, with Captain Parsons on the bridge, and ex-Captain Ben Olseu in the cabin. The latter will take com mand of the "Nan Smith" at Marsh field, and take her south. And she will be in blamed good hands, it that! The steamship Geo. W. Elder ar rived down at midnight last night, having left Portland at 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon, after coming off the ways at St John's. She had plenty of business on all decks, as usual The steamer Argo, the new Dun ham finer, is doe to arrive is this port today, and win go on to Port- i land at once, where bar first cargo awaits her."
