LARGER ANO LARGER
Grows the List Of Entries fOf the
Three Days Regetta Next
Week.
The Grandest Yachting Carnival
Ever Held in the Northwest.

Yesterday was the "big' day with the
committee receiving entries for the re-
gatta. All sorts Of crafts were entered,
among the number being several shells.
Tho schooner entries are assuming
such proportions that it has been de-
cided TO hold second race on Monday
for which purse of $50 will be offered.
The fact announced that all en-
tries of fish boats would be added to
the prize of the second free-for-all fish
boat race has stimulated entries in that
class, and 1t will not be surprising If
the second purse will eventually exceed
the first. 1t is expected that on Mon
day large number of outside boats
will be entered, as communications
from various points state that they
have boats which will be on hand to
participate in the festivities.
The cups for the various events were
placed on exhibition in McDonald's
tailoring window last night, and at
tracted large number of people. They
are Of beautiful design, several Of them
being decidedly unique. The medals
will be placed on exhibition on Mon
day.
One of the most pleasant surprises
connected with the affair so far was
given by the following telegram re-
celved by Secretary Frank Gum, yes
terday:
Portland, Or, August II, 1894.
f. M. Gum. Secretary Regatta Com
mittee, Astoria Oregon.
The Oregon Railway and Navigation
Company the Vancouver Transporta-
ton Company, Ilwaco Railway and
Navigation Company, and the steamer
Telephone Company will make one

eth, good to return not later than the

The action Of the Portland steamboat
removes the last obstacle in
the way of transportation and it is
now expected that there will be a big |
from up the river.
There is just possibility that the |
Columbne will not be in port on the |
of the regatta, which is to be
much regretted, as the boats from the
and Columbine promised to |
be one of the crack events of the
whole program. But the committee
have not given up all hope, and have
written to Commander o. w. Faren-
nolt entreatinG him to allow the Col
mbine to remain during the three
lays sport. AS Commander Farenholt
las always had very warm spot in
MS heart for Astoria, and has more

Die to do her citizens a good turn, it is
iafe to say that IL there is any possible
way in which he can manage, the trim
little vessel will be on hand
one thing that the committee wishes
o ask of the citizens again, is that
hey will commence early and decorate
heir buildings. Cover them with flags
md bunting, and when the Monterey
teams into the harbor, there should

that he had severe kidney trouble
for several years, with severe pains In
bis back and also that his bladder was
affected. He tried many so-called Kid

The Yachts the HerreShofs are TO Build

These Designers are Doing
Other QuarterS-Other Inter
estinS Matters.

New York May 1S.-Although there will
be no race for the Americas cup this year and
possibly next, the coming yachting season
promises to be in many ways an interesting
and notable one. The most important events
20 be recorded thus far are the purchase of
.aSt years victorious Vigiant by the Gould
brothers, and the order the HerreshoffS have
received from James Gordon Bennett to sur
pass their former efforts in u boat intended
for international racing.
The purchase of the Vigiant by George
and Howard Gould from the syndicate for
whom it Was built was, in some respects, a
surprise, but the Goulds have long been
known as enthusiastic yachtsmen, and the
fact of the purchase Was accompanied by the
announcement from her new owners that
:he yacht had been bought to race, and
would at once be put in readiness for that
purpose. George Gould's career as a yachts
man dates from his election as member of
the New York Yacht Club in October, 1881.
Soon after this date he became the owner of
the Fanita, a sloop yacht modelled by Captain
Phil Ellsworth, which was forty-four feet six
inches water line, forty-nine feet three
inches over all, seven feet beam, five feet five
inches deep and five feet draught. She was
quite speedy and Mr.. Gould raced her in the
club regattas, but was not very successful in
winning prizes. He sold her to A. S. Hatch.
Mr.. Gould next purchased the schooner
Hildegarde, built at Gosport, England, in
1874, by Messrs. Camper & Nicholson for the
Prince of Wales. This fine craft he has
owned for years, and with his family passed
much time cruising. He also owns the large
steam yacht Atalanta. Howard Gould has
been member of the New York Yacht Club
since October, 1898, but the Vigilant is the
first yacht in which he has held a proprietary
interest.
The Vigilant was built by syndicate COM
posed of thirteen members of the New York
Yacht Club as possible cup defender against
the Valkyrie. the Herreshoffs were her de-
signers and builders. She is of Tobin bronze
hull and steel topsides, 1854 feet water line,
1875 feet over all, 50 feet keel and Is feet 3
inches draught.N Her centreboard is 10 feet
long, while her sail area is 1854 square feet.
She cost these gentlemen all told something
like 100000 but became the property of the

The AutMern Fair.

A great Worlds Fair has just been opened
at Antwerp, in Belgium, and will continue
until the second day of next November. The
first of these great Worlds Fairs was in Lon
don, some forty-three years ago, and it was
SO great as to exhaust the capacities of the
nations contributing, and to lead to the belief
that it would not be again equalled during
the century. The United States soon fol-
lowed, with what it called a Worlds Fair, but
which was really private enterprise, held in
the city of New York, and which, with all it's
buildings, covered an area equal to about one
city square. Up to the great Centennial Fair
of 1876, one of these exhibitions was held in
England or France every ten years, but they
have been found to be SO profitable, or so
fascinating, that hereafter we may look for
one every year.
We see by cable news from Antwerp that
the United States building at that fair will
not only be the largest erected by any nation,
but will occupy the most commanding posi-
ton. It is to have room for every State and
Territory in the Union, in which the principal
products of that State will be exhibited, with
an abundance of free literature, showing its
resources and pointing out it's superior
advantages to the bloated capitalists of the
old world. One Of the features of the Ameri-
can exhibit will be a regular New England
shoe factory, running as an annex to the
main building, where will be illustrated our
method of turning out by machinery every
variety of shoe, from the dainty satin slipper
to the heavy hob-nailed boots worn by the
miner.
AS the last Paris Exposition was distin-
guished by the now famous Eiffel Tower and
Chicago by the Ferris Wheel, both erected to
give sightseers an extensive and complete
view of the grounds, so Antwerp is to have
an observatory equally novel, though not apt
to be SO permanent as the wheel or the tower.
This outlook is to be called 'the Castle in
the Air" and will be monstrous, anchored
balloon. This balloon consists of six parts,
each one Of which is complete and indepen-
dent of the other, SO that If any one or two
should fail, the others would support the
structure. The balloon and observatory are
fastened to the ground by five ropes, each
anchored by iron cables. The observatory
car will hold $50 people, and will be lifted
and lowered to height of about 500 feet, by
means of electric power. His majesty King
Leopold, having recovered from his recent
debauch, which endedtips Geneva, was ena-
bled to open the fair with the dignity befit-
ting his high position. During the coming
summer Antwerp will he, to American tour
lists, point Of great interest. ,.. 49,

"A LONG CAREER As A RULER.
TIL e History of q Woman Which is Also
the History of a Great Empire for
More Than Half u Century-HON
~ she Lives in Town and
Country.

LONDON, May 10.-Thursday, May A. Queen
Victoria celebrates her seventy-ffth birthday.
She is in excellent health, and gives promise
orliving for many years to come. Few reigns
have been longer or more memorable than
that of this quiet, motherly, home-loving old
lady whom Englishmen own as their queen
Her majesty's reign dates from the very year
in which she attained her majority. A
history of the tifty-seven years since elapsed
would fill many volumes. 1t would deal
with many mighty events, and would show
greater progress in prosperity and enlghten-
ment than characterizes any preceding CEN
tury since England became nation. The
future historian of the Victorian Era will
have before him a task of enormous magni-
tude, for with good reason it must be con-
sidered the brightest in the history of the
British nation. Not only has the nation
increased it's material prosperity under the
rule of Victoria; its progress in the fields of
learning, in the arts, in science, in literature
in short in all that tends to ennoble man
kind-has been no less marked. 1t need
scarcely be said that in all this advancement
the gracious influence of the Queen has
been strongly felt She has been during
her long and eventful reign a model wife,
mother, and queen, and the many virtues
which she has exempli1ed in her own
person have had an influence not con-
fined within the limits of her own en-
pire. She has well earned the love of her
own people, and the respect and admiration
of other nations.
