DOCK AND RIVER News is st hand this morning of the collision between the British bark Iverna and a. harbor tag, off the port of Newcastle, N. S. W, some time ago, in which the tug, with seven of it crew, were lost The Iverna was the vessel about which there was so much ridiculous hubbub in the Port land papers in the fall of 1906. She was off this river for 22 days before she was able to get in. Portland's claim, as voiced in the Oregonian of yesterday, as being the only fresh water harbor on the coast, is causing a lot of merriment down this way, where the Columbia still flows and furnishes, forts as much fresh water as it ever needed to clean a ship's bottom- The lumber laden schooners Rob ert R. Hinds and William Bowden are ready to leave down from Port land at any moment; the former for San Francisco, and the latter for Molendo, Peru. They should be down on the Harvest Queen, which is sure to come down after the British ship Glenalvon and the schooner Lottie Bennett (the latter vessel going up the river only as far as Westport. The Kamm liner Lurline had the black luck to break one of her crank shafts yesterday coming down the river, and she was compelled to come down on "one side," but she made good time, however, and was but an hour late in departing up stream. She had on board D. B. Wood, C. Johnson, F. M. Quinn, N. P. Sorert son and J. Elevander. 11 CO We have arranged to do our killing at T. S.

The Nome City was another of the get-iwayi from this port yesterday for the Bay City. Among her pas sengers from here was Andrew An derson. The steamship Breakwater came down the river yesterday morning, with a long list of passengers, and left out almost immediately for the Coos Bay country. By the way, non-compulsory pilot age on the bar, and compulsory pilot age on the river, is not likely to operate very heavily against this port. The oil tank steamship Washtenaw entered port yesterday afternoon with fuel oil as a cargo, and went on up the river after she had discharged enouch of the cargo here to make the river depths practicable. The four masted schooner oLttie Bennett arrived in yesterday from Redondo, California, and will go on up the river after a lumber cargo as soon as she can get a towboat The steamer schooner Bowdoin ar rived down the river yesterday after noon and went to sea and San Fran cisco, with a big load of lumber- The steamer Olsen-Mahoney came down the river and went to sea yes terday at noon, bound for the Bay City- Notice to Mariners.

According to telegraph reports re ceived last night the senate refused to concur with the house in the case of the bills pertaining to the increase of salary of the county treasurer of Clatsop county and also in the case of the bill authoring the Clatsop as sessor to appoint his own deputy. By thus refusing to concur, with the house on these two bills the gover nor's veto is upheld and the two bills stand killed. But the senate did concur with the house in the case of the bill increasing the salary of the Clatsop county school superintend ent from $600 to $900, and this is now law. However, there was some slight ambiguity in the reports in re lation to the passage of this latter measure, but it appears to have passed. The house of representatives of the Oregon legislature had passed three of the "more" bills over the govern or's veto; these three bills all per tained to Clatsop county and were as follows: H. B. 119, Leinenweber Giving Assessor of Clatsop County power to appoint his own deputies without consent of the Coutity Court. H. B. 50, McCue Increasing sal ary of County Treasurer of Clatsop County from $900 to $1200. H. B- 49, McCue Increasing sal ary of School Superintendent of Clatsop County from $600 to $900. The first of these bills, introduced by Mr. Leinenweber, should not properly be classed among the "more" bills, for heretofore the as sesor has not been able, under the existing state of the law, to appoint his necessary deputies and this bill merely gives him that appropriate right. Heretofore the matter has been gotten around by the county court making the appointment. The other bills are for the in crease of salaries of the county treasurer and the county superin tendent of schools, both introduced by Mr. McCue. The governor had vetoed these bills, as being objec tion on the ground that they were increasing the salary of officials dur ing their term of office, but the house deemed it best, apparently, to pass the bills over the veto. In the United States constitution there is a provision, pertaining to all federal offices, that the salary of no official may be increased during his term. and the same provision is incorporat ed in the constiutions of practically all of the states, Oregon being an exception to the almost universal rule. Hence it would appear that the legislature has the right to pass such increases if it so desires. TEN THOUSAND PLEDGED- SEATTLE. Wn., Feb. ll.-Kar!

Feb. 1 1. -From New Castle news was brought by the Moana of the sinking of the lug Ad vance by collision with the bark Iver na, one man only of the eight on the Advance being saved. The Advance was going to throw a line on the Iver na when she crossed her bow and tht baik struck her heavily on the port quarter, overturning the tug.

I There are more cases of kidney trouble here now than ever before, while recent reports show that more people succumb each year to some kidney disease than any other cause, cause. When there is sickness, examine the urine. Rheumatism is only a symptom, of kidney trouble. It is nothing more or less than excessive uric acid in the blood, which the sluggish, inactive kidneys have failed to sift out, leaving it to decompose and settle about the joints and muscles, causing intense suffering; frequently resulting in- deformity; often reaching the heart, when death ensues. Pains across the back, frequent painful and suppressed urination and other symptoms of weak bladder are not the only signs of kidney trouble; many cases of stomach dis ease, headache, pain in the heart, in active liver, etc., are but symptoms; the cause of which can be traced to feeble, clogged kidneys. A simple test of the urine is to void a small quantity in a bottle or glass and let it stand over night; next mornintr. if there is a reddish brick- dust sediment, or white fleecy sub stance present, cither consult some NEW SHIP CHARTERS.

SEATLE, Wn., Feb. 11-John C Considine, father of John W. and Thomas J. Considine of Sullivan and Considine theatrical proprietors, was found dead in a bathroom at the Hotel Steward, S17 Madison street, shortly after 11 o'clock tonight. That he was accidentally asphyxiated is th i belief of the coroner who investigated as both the electric light and gas fixtures were turned on and it is sup posed that he turned the gas on acci dentally striving to turn the ele-tric switch and did not notice the mistake. John C. Considine was born in coun ty Calir, Ireland. He moved to Am erica when very young and was a wagon maker in Chicago unt'l 23 years ago. He moved to Seattle 'n 1900 and was 87 years old at hi.; death. Besides the two sons living here he has four daughters in Chicago Agnes, Lucy Frances and Mrs. Mar Young survive. NEVER MISSED A DAY.
