and the most skeptieal concede that
the remains of thousands more rest be-
meath the debris above Johustown
bridge. The population of Johnstown,
the surrounding towns and the portion
of the valley affected by the flood is,
or was, from 90, 900 to 55 900. Gsl.H O.. :
Associated Press representatives to-
day interviewed numerous leading citi-
zens of Johnstown who survived the
flood, and the eoncensus of opinion
was that fully so per cent Of the resi-

5000, and possibly much greater. 81
OF the thousands who were devoured

The 4. b. Field brings some fine honey
from Tillamook, a land of milk and
honey as well as big timber filings.
This Tiilamook honey is genuine, which
is more than can be said for some honey.
There was time when honey was honey
and honeycomb was hOneycomb, but,
like everything else, some bee raisers
wanted to get rich more rapidly. 1t was
found that paraffine closely resembled
beeSwaX, and after many trials combs
were produced which were scarcely dis
tinguishable III shape from those built by
the bees themselves. 1t was then found
that when these artificial combs were
placed in the hives the bees took to them
as If they were of their own making, and
filled them with honey. This plan once
in operation became a great saving to
bee culturistS as the bees no longer had
to make their own comb, but were able
to put in ali their work making honey.
Of course now and then somebody OBJ
jected to the quality of the wax, but the
bee raisers never minded any little thing
like that, and they thought they had
struck the acme of success until they
made their next and greater discovery.
This was that glucose, or grape sugar
closely resembled honey in appearance
and was a very fair counterfeit as far as
taste was concerned. Then there ap-
peared in the market paraffine honey
comb filled with glucose honey and the
occupation of the bee was gone. The first
attempt was simply an adulteratiOn of
honey with glucose, and the proportion
of the latter was gradually increased un-
til there was little or no honey. Pure
honey is accordingly scarce nowadays.

WHAT ASTORIA MUST MEET
At the Tacoma Tournament Next Week

The New Westminster, B. c., Truth, of
the 9th, has the following relative to
their fire brigade that will participate In
the coming tournament at Tacoma: In
tense interest and almost unbounded en-
thusiasm are the feelings of the fire
brigade here anent the forthcoming tour
nament in Tacoma, on the 10th and
three following days. They have been
training steadily for some time now; at
present they have two practices a day,
one in the morning at 6 and the other in
the evening at O'Clock. This is to be
the order of things every day until the
departure of the team for the scene of
the contests.
The men are doing their part well and
appear at the hall morning and evening
with zest which Enthusiastically indicates
their intention to acquit themselves in a
manner that will surprise their neigh
boring teams and reflect honor on their
city. Mr.. Woods is coaching the team,
and feels quite confdant that, provided
no unforeseen hitch occurs, they will re-
turn home with full wads-or a vivid
recollection of ''big time" on the other
side of the line. If they take the prizes
they have reasons to anticipate, 1T will
need two-inch steel wire TO hold them
uOWn. Iuc IepICocllbdllfc Jcdlh ID SOli-

Samuel Woods, foreman; George Pitten-
.drigh, John Stirsky, John Oliver, Guy
Hall, William Murray, David Gray,
Thomas Hill, John Manson, William
Albro, Benjamin Anderson, David
Mitchell, Robert Ross.
There was a practice last night at in
the fire hall, when the men devoted
themselves solely to betting the record
on the dry test. The show Of. form was
good, and the men themselves were quite
satisfied with the time made. Secular
uncoupled in a little under three seconds,
andNone or two others came pretty near
him. He is in splendid form and goes
about his work in manner that proved
that he had trained to some purpose. In
uncoupling and attaching nozzle, the
best time was again made by the captain
and his colleague, the process being fin
Ished in four and one-half seconds. If
this can be done at the competition, the
New Westminster boys will have reason
to be pround of themselves and their
coach. The teams of the neighboring
cities are training for all they are worth,
and the competition for the prizes will.
in all probability, be exceptionally keen.
1t will be one of the best competitions
ever held on the coast.

Giving Itself Unnecessary Worry.

The press of the Willamette valley are
almost uniform in advocating the raising
of money to assist the Astoria railroad.
After it is completed they will take to
writing editorials on the subject of ex-
orbitant freights and fares; and the gran
ger who most literally subscribed will
elect himself to the state senate or house
and speechify and introduce bills grind
ing the grasping monopoly to the dust,
and forgetting all about the time when
he and his neighbors wined and dined
the president and officers of the COM
pany and toasted "long thrive the rail-
way" He will also complain that the
corporation don't build depots and pay
taxes, and burns his grain and don't pay
the damage and tears his fence down
and runs over and kills his stock. But
then, just now, the honest granger hasn't
got his glasses on, and the country edi-
tor hasnot yet merged his weekly into a
metropolitan daily, nor quit dreaming of
things earthly.-Eraminer, II.

Siuslaw Fishing Trouble.

The trouble between the cannerymen
and fishermen at Florence is practically,
settled. The prices now paid are less
than what was first offered but the men
concluded to go to work for whatever
they can get. A gentleman who came in
from there last week says the cannery is
paying all the way from % cents to So
cents, and some of the men are still fish
ing for themselves and sailing what they
catch. There is a good run of salmon
and the boats make good catch every

Here is a case of Oriental justice that
can hardly be OutdOne for sharp and sub
tie determinations -Four men, partners
in business, bought some cotton bales.
That the rats might not destroy the cot
ton, they purchased cat. They agreed
that each of the four should own a par
ticular leg of the cat; and each adorned
with beads and other ornaments the leg
thus apportioned to him. The cat, by an
accident, injured one of its legs. The
owner of that member wound about it a
rag soaked in oil. The cat, going too
near the fire, set the rag on fire, and, be-
ing In great pain, rushed in among the
cotton bales where she was accustomed
to hunt rats. The cotton thereby took
fire and was burned up. 1t was a total
loss. The three other partners brought
an action to recover the value of the cot
ton against the fourth partner who
owned the particular leg of the cat. The
judge examined the case and decided
thus: 1.-The leg that had the oil rag
on it was hurt; the cat could not use
that leg-in fact it held up that leg
and ran with the other three legs. The
three unhurt legs, therefore, carried the
fire TO the cotton and are alone culpable.
The injured leg is not to be blamed.
The three partners who owned the three
legs with which the cat ran TO the cotton
will pay the whole value of the bales to
the partner who was the proprietor of the
injured leg"

The body that was found on the beach
at Kalama last Saturday has been identi-

Heotes, a Greek, who has been running a

very wealthy, and had between $4,000
and $4,000 on his person when last seen
about fifteen days ago. He ssys the last
he saw Of him was at the Northern Pa
cific depot, where he bought ticket for
Tacoma. The bruised place over his eye
shows that there was foul play, and the
general impression is that he was mur-
dered for his money. They say that he
had an overcoat on and had the money
liz his coat pocket, but when the body
was found he had no coat or vest, and
only $500 in small change could be
found.
