Mayor Kinney, Aldermen Thomson, O'Hara, and Lang worthy wore absent. Very little. busi ness waa transacted, though Mr. Schcr neckau introduced an ordinance to Im prove 18th street from the .south side of Exchange street to the north side of Grand avenue at the expense of the owners of the adjacent property. This will raise a "holler" from Messrs. Welch, Cherry, and others who own the property but do not reside In the vicin ity and are not quite as epthuslastlc in Incurring new expenses these close times as the residents along 18th Btreet think they ought to be. An ordinance was passed providing for an election on the 21st day of Aug ust for the purpose of authorizing or refusing to authorize the said city and the common council thereof, to appro priate, condemn by proper actions, and pay for, a strip of land two rods In width from a reservoir site adjoining blocks 6 and 7 in central Astoria, on the east to a designated point on Bear Creek as a right of way for a supply water pipe. C. H. Stockton, Max Young ind Theo. Bracker were named as ludges.-, and J. II. Mansell, and O. F: Morton, clerks. The city beach cleaner had his claims before the council for $190 for tending the beach, at a rate of nearly. $3 perjmittee to run to Ilwaco and return dur day. ' '. ' ' mS tne ya-htlng carnival. If the Alderman Bergman moved that he prices are kept up, they will run, char- bo paid $100 on account. The motion was -knocked out, and another substi tuted by Alderman Barker that he be laid off and $100 tendered him to settle his claim In full. This motion was car ried with such alarming rapidity that Street Superintendent Chadwlck near ly fell off his chair. ' If the city can discount its bills In this manner the property owners should present to the aldermen a diamond stud that would glow and glisten like the one Sain Harris wears. The council then adjourned after act-: ing on numerous bills. A SURE CURE FOR PILES. Jtohtne Piles a,o known by moisture like perspiration, cRuxing Intense itching vnen warm.

Drugjist-OJJ Fellows Builjmj? FOR THE REGATTA The Various Commutes Selected Last Sight. Were The Finance Committee Meet With Encouraging Results. The regatta finance committee were out on a round-up yesterday, and buo ceeded In collecting a goodly amount of the money subscribed. It Is an act ual pleasure to note how promptly the business men have responded with their help, both financially and morally, and If the regatta Is not a success It will be no fault of the majority of the citi zens. Every preparation has been made for the comfort and entertainment of the visitors, which if reports be true, will be no small number. Today's cor respondent brought news from the beaches where several thousand up- country people are sojourning. They all want to come over during the races, providing .the transportation companies will give them a rate that they can stand. The South Coast company. It Is said, are willing to do this, making an unusually low fare for the round trip, and while no word has been received from tho I. R. and N. Co., It Is gener ally understood that they will do their share towards inducing the people to. come over. There was a rumor started yesterday that the above two companies proposed to stand In with the up-river comblna tlon and keep the rate up to its regular standard, but as nearly as could be as, certalned, there Is no truth In the report Even if it were so. It would make but very little difference In the case of the I. It. and N. Co., as there are plenty of boats anxious to charter to the conv ter or no charter. However, there Is no trouble expected on that score. The Portland boats that are In the combine have, of course, refused to lower the rates, but there are several first-class steamers on the river that Intend to get in and carry passengers, even if they arc compelled to do so at a 50 cent rate. So, in this, as in the f. R. and N, case, the action of the combine In hold ' Ing aloof from the low rate proposition will have but little effect on tho re- gatta. The independent boats will reap the benefit. Up the river at the various can nerles they are making preparations to enter some of their fastest boats. Big sloops will be taken from the water. their bottoms scraped, nnd newly calk ed. The fish boats, as soon as the sea son Is over, will be served In the same manner. There are a number of private bets, some of them pretty good-sized wagers, already up on the fishermen's race, and Ht will probably be the most Interesting event on the whole program. The directors of tho Athletic Asso ciation met last evening and selected the following committees: Judges Mr. C. P. Upshur, British Vice-Cousul P. L. Cherry, and Hon. John Fox. Handicappers Mr. Scott Johnson, and Mr. F. L. Parker. Starter Captain Howes. Reception Committee Messrs. Fred Newell, Robert Gibson, P. W. Weeks. It is suggested that parties having rooms to let, leave their names, to gether with the number of rooms, with the committee. Residents of other cities who contemplate attending the regatta can find suitable accommoda tions by addressing the committee. ON THE SAFE) SIDE. Everybody knows this Is a good place to be, but everybody does not take measures to be-there. An efficient pre ventative places us on the safe side of Incipient disease, and there is no one more reliable than Hostetter's Stomach Bitters in cases where the kidneys are Inactive, which is bue the preliminary to various destructive maladies, which disregarded have a fatal termination. Bright's disease, diabetes, dropsy, oede, ma, are but the outgrowths of neglected inaction of the kidneys ana Diadder, They should be checked at the outset with bitters, which will prevent their progress by arousing the renal organs to activity, and thus place those who resort to this saving medicine on the safe side. This preservative of safety also conquers constipation, liver com plaint, malarial fever, nervousness and dyspepsia. , TEACHERS' EXAMINATION.
