None of the scaling ileet has done
much this season, so far, but better
luck is expected later on. He has 13
men aboard, and four boats, and af

The mode or catching the seals is as
follews: The men are detailed in
boats, two to row and one to kill.
They are given their course and the
schooner stands oft and on, ready to
afford assistance and pick the boats
up. A sleeping seal is approached and
shot, the intent being to shoot it in
the head. The captured seal is taken
to Ihe vessel and skinned; the carcass
is useless, being almost wholly uneat
able except the liver and brains. The
skin is pickled for about twelve days,
when it can be rolled up and put any
where that is cool and dry. The prin
cipal market is Victoria, where the
green skins bring from S7 to SS apiece.

Late last night a rumor was rife on
the street that there had been a wild
time at Bay Center, and that Rose and
his son, Edwards and Gibbons had
been lynched by the infuriated
people.
Another rumor was that five were
lynched, including Jones and the four
above named.
11 was said that George Rose and
lack Edwards had made a full con
fession, acknowledging that the and
their accomplices had not onlv killed
Fredrickon and wife but the other
mining parties who had formerly filed
on the ranch.
This confession was said to have
been made in open court yesterday,
during the examination, and that then
the people lynched the whole gang.
It is evidently an entire fabrication,
but it would not be strange if a sim
ilar event should occur later.
Valuable Oirvery Arrows the River.
A resident of Pacific county, "Wash

which are liable to lead to something
valuable being found in that locality.
From the samples brought to this
ofiice, and his statements, he has evi
dently found some very valuable sand
stone, which is of a superior quality,
susceptible of a high polish. If he
can find it in sufficient, quantity it
will prove fortunate enough for him.
Other rock found indicate the close
proximity of copper and of gold bear
ing quartz. Further researches will
at once be made and the locality
thoroughly prospected, and it is very
likely that the work will prove suc
cessful. Catholic Eastfr Services.

SOME SALMON SURMISES.
Talks With Practical Men on The
Situation.
ZITTIlE ,IFE YET XAXIFESTEIi.
"Anything new in the salmon situ
ation? asked an Astobiaj reporter
yesterday of a canner. "Nothing," was
the reply; "I don't see steam issuing
from a single cannery. George &
Barker got a few fish in the early part
of the week, but they haven't packed
a hundred cases. There are not
twenty boats out, and so far, practi
cally nothing has been done. Even
Wm. Hume, who usually has the first
shipment of spring salmon for the
season, from the river, is reported to be
doing nothing, though it's likely that
he has a few boats out with 10 inch
mesh nets, and has landed a few 50
pounders, with their noses smashed as
his trade mark. Even if he were to
pay S1.25, they wouldn't cost him three
cents a pound, for he has no use for
any but big fellows.'
Inquiry from other sources elicited
similar answers.
There is no difference of opinion be
tween the fishermen and the caunory
meu. The trouble lies solely in the
business situation. The canners con
cede that if all the boats ran, the fish
ermen can't make living wages at even
$1.25 a fish: the fishermen concede
that at prevailing prices the canners
can't afford to pay 61.25, but claim,
with great truth, that high as that
price appears, it doesn't afford them
more than a living.
There is really no "setting" of the
price. The price will set itself this
season. Last year, as in previous
Aprils, the fishermen's union set the
price of sahnon at $1.25, and straight
way some of the canneries began bid
ding against each other to secure
men, and offering bonuses of free
boats, free lines and in some cases
free board, tliis giving the men more
than they demanded. For the same
reason the canneries would this year
pay as much as it is possible for them
to pay and come out even at the end
of the season.
It is desirable that the canneries
should have the fish, and desirable
for the fishermen to furnish the "raw
material", and for this reason the in
terests of both are identical.
The canneries say they cannot pay
more than 75 cents; that it is crowd
ing things to pay even that; they are
heavily handicapped by the Alaska
and other outside packs, by the cheap
methods of securing fish at the Cas
cades by means of fishwheels, and are
compelled to keep in view the markets
and the invariable relation of supply
and demand in disposing of the man
ufactured article
To The Astoria it appears that
it would be better for both cannery
men and fishermen to limit the num
ber of boats on the lower Columbia,
to, say, 500. These 500 could get as
many salmon as if there were 1,500,
and those that did fish would have a
chance of making something like good
wages; preference to be given to resi
dent fisherman.
There are 1,000 men here, citizens of
Oregon and Washington, bona fide
residents, who conld thus make a re
munerative season. If the usual
number of boats are out this season,
none of them will make anything.
There are just so many salmon to be
caught, and the more they are divided
among the fewer will be each one's
share.
This would, also bo better for the
canners; it would be less expensive
for them in a variety of ways, and
would be more financially satisfactory
all round.
It is believed that it will come to
that, and if the union were to arrive
at that conclusion to-morrow and
mnke a request of the canners to scale
down the number of boats, that such
a demand would be readily acceded to
by the canners.
The union has issued a circular ask
ing the fishermen all along the river
not to accept anv lower terms than
1.25 a fish.
The present situation is lifeless, but
the matter will work itself out during
the present month and fish will be
ready to can whenever the canners are
ready to take them.

The Athletic Club Rooms.
An Astoriax reporter j-esterday
visited the rooms now being fitted up
for the use of the athletic club. They
are situated in the second story of the
old Geo. W. Hume building. Raised
seats are being put in all around the
room to seat 300 people. A new cen
ter floor twenty-four feet square has
been put in. Beams for trapeze and
swinging rings are being put up, also
a director's room, dressing and bath
rooms and water closets were being
put in. A new stairway has been
built and a partition put up so as to
keep the crowd from rushing up
stairs. Almost everything has been
done, that can be, until the gymna
sium appliances arrive, when they will
be put in position and the club rooms
will be opened. Liddicoat & Crib are
doing tthe carpenter work and Allen
& Simpson the paint work.

The Newspaper Reporter.
In the old days an editor called a
man a chicken thief, uow-a-days the
reporter finds the feathers in his back
vard. The weapon of the old time
editor was the epithet; that of the
modern reporter is the evidence.
What theeditor used to assert the re
porter now proves.
If the people who complain of what
the reporter writes of them would
only consider what he does not write
about them, they would enshrine him
in the dearest comer of their hearts.
The waste baskets of a daily news
paper in any town do more to keep
its citizens in good repute than any
other agency except the fear of the
law and the hereafter. Not all that a
reporter writes is true. He
is not infallible himself and
of those who are the
sonrce of his information many are
less so. There are very many men
who can not tell a straight story.
The man who tells the story to the re
porter is usually an interested party.
He has a purpose to serve in meta
morphosing this or suppressing that.
The reporter has no desire except to
get the truth accurately and com
pletely, and to write it quickly and
entertainingly.
All men do not love the reporter.
The fear and hatred of bad men is a
chaplet above his brows. It is the
assurance of his honesty to his badge
of honor as a servant of truth. If a
time ever comes when all men love the
reporter it will bo time to bury him.

Rains There Perpetually.
D. R. Parkman tells of a curious
phenomenon in Chattahoochee county
a place where rain falls perpetually.
U.11C spot is locnieti ou a muu ivuun iu
a thin wood on the Shipp place, two
miles from Thad. Mr. Parkman says
the discover was made last Thursday,
and that rain has been falling steadily
on the knoll since that time. The
downfall covers a space of fifty feet
square. This space is perfectly w et,
and the leaves on the ground are full
of water. Mr. Parkman says he
visited the place with G. A. McBryde
at noon Tuesday. There was not a
cloud to be seen in the sky, and the
leaves everywhere, except on tho
square, were as dry as tinder.
"I stood with the space between me
and the sun," said Mr. Parkman, "and
saw the raindrops coining steadily
down from the sky. I held out my
handkercliief and it was soon saturated
with water."
Mr. Parkman says that everybody
who hears about the phenomenon is
skeptical, but that the many who have
visited the place in the last few days
have gone away convinced. No one
has yet offered an explanation of the
mysterious rainfall. Mr. Parkman
suggests that some powerf ul unknown
substance attracts the moisture from
tho atmosphere. Hacunnah JSTeics.
