Astokia, Aug. 19. During the regatta
oday, while the sloop race was on, a
most distressing accident occured. The
Monogram, built in this city by J.
Leathers expressly for this regatta,
apsized, and three men were drowned.
JThere were 17. all told, on board. The
pther 14 were rescued. The drowned
e:
Louis Bilger, of Portland, aged 23 ;
jOasenberger, of this city, aged 17, and
Frank Meadows, a painter of this city.
Those caved were rescued by those
(.board the steamer Alarm, the judges'
joat, which was following the race in its
official capacity.
It seems that the sailing master a
Russian, commonly known as "Aleck,"
leglected to warn the crew to shift bal
last, with the result that the heavy bal-
ast and the crowu of people made the
Ijoat so veer that she took water. The
jallast shifting to the stern, sub-
Lnerged that end and she went down like
L log. Just at this time Captain W. E.
Parrott, in command of the judges' boat,
noticing that the Monogram was not be-
ug handled rightly, steamed after her
as rapidly as possible, arriving on the
scene within a few minutes after the ac
cident happened. He succeeded in
picking up most of the crew and passen
gers, but just before arriving he noticed
two who did not again rise to .the sur-
Iface. These were John Oosenberger and
Lewis . Bilger. Every effort was made
ko save the men.
Holmes'
Castle" Burned.
Chicago, Aug. 39. H. H. Holmes'
"castle," at Sixty-third and Wallace
streets, which is said to have been
the scene of numerous murders by the
owner, was discovered to be on fire -at
12:30 this morning. After an hour of
hard work the firemen succeeded in get
ting the flames under control, but not
until after they had left the building in
a condition to become more of a curiousi-
ty than it was while being searched by
the police for evidence of murder. The
fire had its origin in the restaurant oc
cupied by J. H. Barton, and was caused
by the explosion of a lamp. Ad im
mense crowd gathered to witness the
fire, and during the progress the remarks
of those present indicated that the
neighborhood was not sorry to be rid of
the notorious building. Someone caused
some excitement by asking where the
Quinlan family was. Pat Quinlan and
bis wife and Farmer Owen were released
by the police Saturday, but none of
them have since been seen about the
building. When the fire had eaten ite
way through the second floor, it began
to consume the effects of the Quinlans,
and for a time it was thought that some
members of the family might be in the
apartments. Investigation by the fire
men, however, disclosed no sign of life,
and it was afterwards said that the
Quinlans had gone to the farm in Michi
gan, where their daughter Lad been
staying since their arrest. The house
hold furniture of the Quinlans was de
stroyed. The total loss, however, will
not, it is said, be much over $33,000.
The restaurant in which the fire started
is on the ground floor. The flames
jumped up through thedummy elevator,
and burned the asbetos off the dead-
walls, in such a manner that the police
will be unable to make any further in
vestigation, even if they desired to do
so. People remained about the building
all night, and the police had hard work
to keep them from placing themselves
in positions where they were liable to
be injured by falling timbers.
Kan Into a Train In a Fog.
Long Beach, Wash., Aug. 19. The
first serious accident to mar the pleasure
of those who are sojourning here occurred
at 6 o'clock this morning. Dwigbt Hin
man, a section hand employed on the I.
R. & N. railway, borrowed a handcar of
L. A. Loomis, president of the road, and
started for Ocean Park, much against
the wishes of the lattar, who told him
the train was due. There was a dense
fog at the time, and between Ocean Park
and the lifesaving station Hinraan ran
into the train. He was thrown from the
car, which pinned him to the track, and.
two coaches passed over bis right leg,
necessitating amputation. Dr. Fulton,
of Portland, is of the belief that his in
juries are fatal. Hinman is a married
man and the father of Eeveral children.
No blame is attached to the engineer of
the train.
Bl'DD OUT OF DiSGEB.
Wbat California's Governor Sow Seeds
Is Mnch Rest
San FitANCisco, Aug. 19. Edward
McCabe, private secretary of Governor
Budd says :
The governor is a very sick man, but
there is no danger of fatality. ' His phy
sicians will keep him confined to the
house for another week, after which, if
he is in condition for a trip, he will pro
bably go to some springs for recupera
tion. It will doubtless be at least six
weeks before he will attempt to attend
to business. No one is allowed to dis
turb him. We do not even send him the
correspondence of the office. Any
papers requiring his signature are sent
him, but in accordance with the direc
tions of his physicians, he is not
harassed by details. All fear of spinal
meningitis has disappeared, but the gov
ernor is yet very week. He is not able
to move from his bed to the lounge with
out assistance. Wbat he needs is abso
lute rest, without being disturbed in
the slightest degree.
Miserable Armenians.
Chicago, Aug. 18. A meeting of Ar
menians, held last night, broke up- in a
riot, in which a number of persons were
injured. Even before tne alarm was
given people hurried to North Clark
street and Michigan street, attracted by
the uproar that came from the open
windows of the hall where the Arme
nian National Union was holding a
meeting. In a few moments the street
was blocked. From the windows of the
hall came the sound of terrific battle, of
flying chairs and curious voices. Then
suddenly the noise was bushed, and
down the stairs came nearly 100 men.
Some were bloodstained. One with his
head bound in a handkerchief, appeared
to be insensible, and had to be carried
away by his friends. There was scarcely
a man without a black eye or some
mark of conflict about him. ,
The Trouble seems to have arisen over
the election of officers. After the riot
had subsided the police arrived, but
they could not find the leaders, and no
arrests were made. None of those in
jured were thought to be fatally hurt.
Two Lives Saved.
Mrs. Phoebe Thomas,of Junction City,
111., was told by her doctors she had con
sumption and that there was no hope
for her, but two bottles Dr. King's New
Discovery completely cured her and she
says it saved her life. Mr. Thos. Eg
gers, 139 Florida St. San Francisco, suf
fered from a dreadful cold, approaching
Consumption, tried without result every
thing else, then bought one bottle of Dr.
King's New Discovery and in two weeks
was cured. He is naturally thankful.
It is such results,, of which these are
samples, that prove the wonderful effi
cacy of this medicine in coughs and
colds. Free trial bottles at the Snipes

stock whicn cause delay and loss to the
farmer in his work. In a large number

"It is the best patent medicine in the
world" is what Mr. E. M. Hartman, of
Marquam, Oregon, says of Chamberlain's
Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy.
"What leads me to make this assertion
is from the fact that dysentery in its
worst form was prevalent aVound here
last summer and it never took over two
or three doses of that remedy to effect a
complete cure." For sale by Blakeley &
Houghton Druggist.
Forest Fires In Washingten.
Seattle, Aug. 19. Settlers along the
Lake Samish report there is an unbroken
line of forest fires from Belfast to the
lake, destroying large as well as email
timber, and rendering the atmosphere
almost suffocating.
Mr. C. G. Strong, principal of the
public schools at Anderson, Cal., says:
"I have used Chamberlain's Pain Balm
and have found it an excellent remedy
for lameness and slight wounds."
Lameness usually results from a sprain,
or other injury, or from rheumatism, for
which Chamberlain's Pain Balm is es
pecially intended and unequalled. It
affords almost immediate relief and in a
short time effects - a permanent cure.
