His Attorneys Decide to Take 1t Upto the
supreme Court,
At a conference Of the lawyers who
have been defending Van Baker, heidi
this city last week at the Office Of Col.
onel Arnett, 1t was decided to take the
case Of the man who recently entered
upon a life sentence in the State Peni.
Tertiary at Moundsville, 10 the Supreme
Court OF the United States and there
make a final effort TO clear their client
Of the double crime, the murder Of his
wife and motherin.law, which has
twice been fastened upon him. A law
was enacted at the last session oil CON
gresS, going into effect In May, which
permits every one convicted Of a cap,
ital crime To have his case passed
upon by the highest court Of the
country. There is, however, q very
interesting point about this matter
which remains to be adjudiCated, aud
therein may lie q very important ques-
ton for the defense. II IL. that possibly
the language Of the law extends the
right to be heard in the Supreme Court,
only to those upon whom the death sen.
tenCe has been passed. This point has
not as yet been decided, and may arise
in Bakers case. Clerk Long, Of the
Supreme Court Of TIL State, which last
passed on Bakers case, h4s been COM

to be transferred to this division.

to the actual necessity of improving

the policy of obstruction and delay
that appeared to characterize those
who signed the remonstrance. He
thought that it was a mistake and a
public injustice to allow such policy
to prevail and suggested that a mo-
ton be passed instructing the chief
engineer not to allow the fire apara-
tus to go above the Clatsop mill in
case of fire. Councilman ElbOn sec
onded the motion.
Mayor Page suggested that further
action be postponed till the next
regular meeting and the council adj
jOurned.

Epoch.

The transition from long, lingering
and painful sickness to robust health
marks an epoch in the life of the indi-
vidual. Such remarkable event is
treasured In the memory and the agency
whereby the good health has been at
tanned is gratefully blessed. Hence it is
that so much is heard in praise of Elec-
trio Bitters. So many feel they owe
their restoration to health to the use of
the Great Alternative and Tonic. If you
are troubled with any disease of the
Kidneys, Liver or Stomach, of long or
short standing IN gyoU you VIII p;.iy surely find re-

SHAD AND CATFISH.
Are Multiplying in the Columbia River


The largest shad the writer has
ever seen here was sent TO The As
ToRIAN Office yesterday afternoon,
with the compliments of L. A. Bor-
chers, who had just caught it. 1t is
2112 inches long and weighs a little
over six pounds. This is believed to
be as large a shad as ever was caught
in the Columbia river. Accompany
ing the shad were two smaller fish,
also caught by Mr.. Borchers, "all
alive and with their eyes open" !"
They are genuine cat fish, little fel-
lows, but of the true horn pout breed.
They are the first the writer ever saw
on this coast, and brought up mem
ories of hook and line in Lake Pc
osta, in the Mississippi river, twenty
five years ago. The cat fish is a vi
cious, ugly fish, not bad to eat, but
not the most delicate fish in the
world.
1t would be good thing for the Co
lumbia if every cat fish in it could be
exterminsted. If they ever get g
toothold here they will be a worse foe
to our Chinook salmon than the seals
or sealions, or fish wheels.
They are death on young salmon
and it was a misfortune that they evel
got out here.
Neither shad nor horn pout are ma
tiyes of the Columbia, but the shad
roe planted few years ago is giving
4 fine results.
In size, as in flavor they now
compare favorably with the Delaware
shad.
''Planked shad with their tails shak-
ing" waffies, coffee, Strawberries anC
cream are believed to make III
such breakfast as cannot be beaten
This six pound shad is a roe shai
and had a tremendous amount o
eggs in it. 1t seemed almost a pity
to take the fish out of the water as it!
progeny, if allowed to reach anything
like maturity would mount into tht
tens of thousands.

The Kelso Courier says: William
Hall and William Beck, while fishing
in the Coweeman the other day, were
surprised to pull out couple of cat
fish, the first ever caught in that
stream. They weighed a pound or
more apiece. These strange fish are
not welcomed, as they destroy the
trout, which are better than any i'm
ported fish that ever swan.
