The Miller sands seining people, who were also fishing, made their escape before they could be taken by the flan commla sioner. As it is now apparent that the law will be strictly enforced, It Is prob- able all the seiners as well as the gillnetters will suspend operations un til, the fall season opens. There Is plenty fish In the river and the seln ers can all catch from two to four ton a day. One of the arrested seiners yes terday said the fine for the second of rense was too heavy, and that as soon as he had reached his seinlsg grounds uo the river he would put away his gear for the season.

About two weeks ago the Boston Shoe Company arrived here and op enej a sale of fine shoes and then stated that they would remain here only four weeks. While It Is true that a great many people have taken ad vantage of this opportunity and bought boots and shoes for less than any retailer can buy them, and there fore must be more than ratlsfled with their saving of money, for a saving of 50 cents or a dollar on every pair of shoes must In these times be accept able, yet we would like to know this: If it is true, as we were Informed be fore comlne- her, that In the city of Astoria, without Including the sur rounding country, there is a popula tion of 10,000, why many more or all do not come and get shoes while there Is yet time. We will remain here only one week longer, Why delay? Why not corns at once 7 We never carry shoes over it It can be helped. The prices are still lower than ever. Re member, only one week more to buy high-grade shoes for very ilitla money. Boston Shoe Company, 33T, Commercial street, next to the Astorian office.

'Vote Over Quarter Million tni a Biadsooe Sum Realized for the Great Canlvil Event. MISS ELMORK H8,U MISS TALLANT 1.S7 MISS Titl'LLlNOKli 5.l4 The following tn the regatta queen ronteit yesterday resolved Itself Into a battle royaL It was hardly expected that the finale would prove of a character so rensatlonal. Tet, there was gossip, and hearsay and dying rumors, but It was realised that the many friends of the three contending cantlUatea were banding together for a striking denoument; and so It hap pened. Miss Sue Elm re, who was third among the leaders at the last count, bounded Into first place with a total of IIS. is J. This was an Increase In one day of lOfW. Miss Louisa Tal linn, who headed the list at the clos ing hour yesterday, retired to second place with a total of sl.M Miss Tal lant's accession was 60.S71. Miss Is abel Trullluger, who occupied a second position yesterday, leaped from a vote of 1S.J01 to &S.20J. This was an Increase of 3S.301 The total vote of the three leading aspirants aggregittea a grand total of 255.01. The result Is stupen dous. It would seem a pity that three queens rather than one might not sub serve the pleasing duties of sovereign ty on the carnival occasion, tor one and all have hosts of admirers, and each Is a symbol of rare grace and charming manner. The total receipts realised from the voting contest were announced as 1673.00. A NEW DEPARTURE. The New Hotel At Mayger Opened With Appropriate Ceremonies. j When the A. A C. passenger train pulled Into Mayger yesterday. It was met at the platform by twenty-five sturdy little fellows, all drawn up In martial array, and accoutered In the latest of Dewey uniforms. There fol lowed a moment of conventional sil ence, during which the pygmlan sol diers saluted with all the pomp of military exactness. Then came an outburst of screeching and screaming. The wurds "Hotel de Bluhrer" were now and then discernable, ulthough the hubbub was much too riotous to admit of any logical comprehension of the event. William Sluhrer In person was a visitor In the city last evening, and to hltn the reporter la Indebted for the particulars of the occurrence. "I have Just finished a hotel at Mayger," said Mr. Sluhrer, "and I am adopting an Innovation as to the manner of properly advertising It. A day or two ago I took a run to Portland, and ob serving the volunteers. It occurred to me that I would awaken an enthus iasm In my ow n home by a unique and striking departure. Therefore, I set to work and selected twenty-five juvenile suits, of a light blue texture and an abundance of red trimming. I also bought the same number of reg ulatlon service caps. Each of the caps Is emblazened with -the word "Dewey." I took the equipment home and the re. suit as you are aware has found cog nisance abroad. "The hotel," continued Mr. Bluher, 'has already cost me above $5,000. can give you an idea of its dimensions by stating that a guest may sleep as high as the fifth story. I have decided upon September l&th as the date for a formal dedication. There will be a liberal delegation from Portland pres ent, and I hope the larger part of As torla's people will be there also. Tou can say that everything will be shot free and a good time In store for all who can make the trip." Wm. Sluhrer Is of the firm of Bluhrer Bros. He Is one of the most enterpria lng gentlemen In the state, and sells shingles to every home builder In Clat sop county. Mr. Sluhrer's shingles took the premium and bronxe medals at the Omaha exposition. He is loyal to Astoria and states that the gas and other appliances for his hostlery were all procured In this city.
