Bodies of John Ossenlersrer and
Frank Meadows Found.
TWOOF TH MONOGRAM'S CREW
The Corpses Were Badly Docom-
poscd and Have Been Identified
Only by the Clothing.
Last evening the light keeepr at Sana
Island arrived in this city and notified
Coroner 'Pohl that the body of a man
had been washed ashore at that place.
The steamer Eclipse was engagjdi and
the coroner in company with several oth
ers, immediately left for the island. The
body was supposed by Coroner Pohl to
be that of one of the men who was
drowned on the yacht Monogram during
the first day of the regatta.
A search was made to see whether the
corpses of any of the others had washed
ashore.
About a quarter of a mile belo.v the
place where tho first body had been
found they., discovered another. A thor
ough Investigation was then made of
the Island, and after an hour's search
without result, the two bodies were plac
ed on tho steamer and brought to this
city. They were taken to the morgue and
shortly afterwards Identified as those of
John Ossenberger and Frank Meadows,
both of whom (were- drowned on the
Monogram.
Frank Meadows was a painter of this
city and has a mother living at Penln
sular, Oregon.
John Ossenberger was a young man 17
years of age. His parents reside in this
city.
The bodies werS in the water twelve
days and aire In a bad state of decom
position, identification being made only
by tho clothing. 'Both bodies will be
burled this afternoon. The body of Louis
Bllger, the third of the unfortunate men
who were drowned on the yacht, has not
yet been found.
'Mrs. Meadows was informed by tele
graph last night of 'the finding of the
body of her son.
Both bodies will be burled at 3 o'clock
this afternoon at Greenwood.
The facts concerning the lamentable
accident which caused the death of these
two men and another whoso body has
not yet been recovered', are still fresh In
puibllc memory. They are briefly as fol
lows: The sloop Monogrim, Which r was
launched 'and for the first time tried her
sails on 'the firat day of the regatta, cap
sized,' throwing all on board, somo sev
enteen people, Into the river. It seems
that the salting master, a RusMan, com
monly known as- "A.leck," negteoced to
warn the crow to shift ballast, with the
result that the heavy ballast and crowd
of people made the boat so veer that she
took water and the ballast shifting to
the stern submerged that end and she
went down like a log. Just at this time
Captain W. E. Parrott, In command or
the judges' boat, the Alarmfl noticing
A hat the Monogram was not being han
dled1 right, steamed after her as rapidly
as possible, arriving on the scene within
a few minutes aifter the accident hap
pened. He succeeded in picking up most
of the crew and passenger.?, but just be
fore arriving, noticed thre who did not
again rise to the surface. These were
John Ospenberger, of Astoria, 17 years
of age; Frank Meadows, a painter, aged
40, and Lewis Bilger. of Portland, agea
22 years. Every effort was made to
save the men, and all who were in the
water at the time of the arrival of the
Alarm were picked up and taken p.phore.

THE CHILDREN.
Young People of Graca Chinch Are En
tertained. Following the Ladles' Guild entertain
ment, at Mrs. Trenchard's Thursday
evening, the members of Grace Church
Sunday school and all of their young
fiiends enjoyed a pleasant afternoon on
Friday at 'the the same place. About 100
young people were assembled and made
merry with g'amss and amusements of all
kinds. Refreshments of a substantial
as well as more delicate nature were serv
ed, and all had a most enjoyable time.
The great Buccesa of both entertain
ments Is almost entirely due to the un
tiring energy and hard work of Mrs.
Trenohard, seconded by the other Jadles
of the Guild, and much credit Is duo this
band of Church workers for their untir
ing efforts on behalf of the congregation.
