' ' SAILS UP KIVER ; -v a.' Steam Schooner Hoqniam Takes AdV : vanUge of Stiff Breexe on IUver, Taking advantage' of the fine breeze which was blowing up the river all day yesterday, the steam schooner Hoqulam, Captain t Reinertsen, finished . her - up voyage from Saa Francisco with all sails set. j - , - ,'-.::,' As aha' came up the-river.' the cap tain decided that it would be a shame to waste the opportunity afforded him by the wind, which was blowing favor-' ably, so he had tha sails set -and made fine progress up the river 'and at a minimum expense. Bhe arrived at Co lumbia dock at 4 o'clock yesterday aft ernoon. ' - A ' ,-. . The Hoqulam ; was delayed about a day-on her trip up this time aa she was heavily loaded with scrap Iron and during a larger part of her ? passage she encountered strong headwinds and heavy , seas. At times the seas would break over her forecastle and in order to protect the pilot house windows, It was found necessary lo stretch a can vas around the house. As it wast two of the windowa were broken by pieces of iron which, were thrown against them when tha seas broke oa the deck. On the way up she met a part of the Paciflo coast squadron which" was bound for Ban Francisco for tha Portola car' nival which is . to take place , there. There1 was seven ships in line. ... ; After discharging her. cargo of 10 tons of s;rap iron., the Hoqulam will load lumber for Saa Francisco., ' UNDULY ALARMED , Boatmen : MJss Opportunity to Be- - corns Heroes During Night With - . audden- suit Captain Amos of the launch Eva' was awakened from his peaceful dreams last -night by the call of "Help! help!" and. Jumping out of bed. ' hetwent' to the window and looked out upon - the river to see who It was that waa in neea oi assistance. Hts auicklv discovered the cause - of the alarm, for out on the river was a rowboat with - a- man and a woman in It - t ' .. - - '' Calling to them. Captain Amos asked what was the matter, and he was ap prised of tha fact that they had broken one of the- oars and' wanteds someone Uwcome out and take them ashore. With a snort of 'disgust Captain - Amos .ad vised the man to use the remaining oar as a paddla and bring the boat ashore that way. . lie . tnen, reiurnea to oea, hat huA - harelv . beiua to.sleeo asain. when he heard the -call repeated. . Thla time as tie looaea out .or. tna wmaow he saw- that the- crew on the flreboat had been awakened and '.. had thrown thelr searchlight on ; the boat.

Dorsey B. Smith, general manager of the Open River Transportation com pany, who has Just returned from a trip up the river, stated yesterday that on September 1, In order to taka -care ol their . growing business, the company will put on additional agents at Hood River and Pasco. Up to this time one agent has "handled the business of both places, but after tomorrow each place will have Its own agent - ; .

TRANSFER BY STAGE - Lewis River Boats Can .Only Gt o , JRlcMIeid---Passengers , Overland. - On' account of, the extreme low water in .the Lewis , river the Lewis River Transportation, company ; has had to abandon -the use of the launch whch they have been using to transfer pas sengers and freight from Richfield to La Center. -'. ' -..,' ''v ; s For some little time the steamer Mas cot has been unable to run beyond the formpr point and paasengers and freight had to be transferred to a launch which made the rest of the trip, but the wa ter IS now so low that this means of reaching La Center has been abandoned snd the transfer Is made by stage. A transfer by tnires for Woodland Is also made at Pekin. If the- could haul fronvthe Fork It would h- much less exp4slv tot the people ot La Center, aa It Is only two miles from there, but it la too hilly and the rrelght -has to be hauled from - Richfield, which is seven miles away. . J. ' Allen Harrison, superintendent of the Karam lines, said 4 hat they received a communication from Major Mclndoe, corps of engineers United States army, asking for information in regard to the navigation on tha river, and saying that there had been an appropriation made by congress for work to be done on it Mr. Harrison says . that If ths channel could be deepened sufficiently for - the boats to run up to La Center all the year around it would Increase the busi ness In that section - to about double its present amount He thinks that by confining the water to a narrower chan nel there would be sufficient to accom pli ah ths . desired result i MARINE NOTES Astoria, Aug.
