and been swept out by the tide.
Often one can sail among them and
run alongside them without any
trouble, but zone is in danger of
being upset should they become
frightened and switch their tails
around" the captain admits.
In the hills around Yaquina bay
there are many quail and pheasant
and grouse, while waterfowl, espec-
tally duck, and snipe and plover,
are easily bagged. Further back,
toward Table mountain, good
shooting can be had by the deer
slayer, and occasionally an elk or
bear may be bagged, if one is hunt
ing for big game, while wildcats
are not uncommon.
The extension of the Corvallis &
Eastern railroad over and beyond
the Cascades and the establishment
of the steamer line in conjunction
with that railway at Yaquina, both
of which are now assured, are
being hailed with no little satisfac-
ton by patient, persevering
people.
Angling is not the only diversion
to be enjoyed at Newport, tbe re-
sort of Yaquina bay. 1t possesses
a delightful climate, splendid beach
and is one of the most romantic
places to camp and enjoy in full the
delights of a summer outing. Here
one may enjoy ''the country" to
its fullest, and revel in sea bathing,
enjoy sailing, and be assured of
finding splendid class of people.
Many Oregonians have visited
Newport annually tor a decade or
more; others come because of the
praise of their friends who have
been here, and all declare their
allegiance 10 the place. The season
there were more visitors here than
ever before. Every cottage atNye
creek has been occupied the entire
season, although there were quite
number built for this years use.
The hotels at Newport have been
filled practically all the time, the
Abbey House and its numerous
annexes, OF course, being the most
popular. Next year it is proposed
to have larger hotel, work on
which will probably be begun early
this coming winter. Mrs. Abbey,
it is reported will open the new
| hotel.

NEWPORT AS A SUMMER RESORT.
Most Any Kind of Outdoor Amuse-
ment Can Be Enjoyed There.


respondence, to Oregonian. )-Of all
the seaside resorts of the Northwest,
or on the Pacific coast, none can
compare with Yaquina Bay resorts
for genuine sport to the angler or
the more prosaic seeker for the fat
and festive shelfsh-oysters, clans
OF various varieties, and that most
delectable biva1ve known only to
Yaquina residents in all its glory,
the rock oyster. Silent and saucy,
fat as a young pullet, and as tender
and toothsome as celery tip, the
rock oyster bides his time and
grows, spawns and propagates for
future generations. Just how The
rock oyster lives and feeds, bur
rowed in solid rock; how it ever
got there in the first place, and how
1t is possible for it to propagate shut
up in its living tomb-a veritable
catacomb, hermetrically sealed-is
the wonder; yet it does spawn, and
grow in size and keep fat shut up
from the world in its curious habita-
ton.
One need not go far nor exert
himself to enjoy rare sport angling.
If salmon trout is desired, a trip
toward the head of tidewater will
bring one to their haunts, and they
will bite greedily. If it is desired
to catch tomcod, or herring, or
smelt, or sardines, one needs only a
dipnet, fair amount OF patience
and row or sailboat, and any
portion of the bay will be possible
fishing ground, although one may
be forced to paddle around some
time before discovering school,
but when once found, one may
load his boat with little exertion.
If founders are preferred, the mud
banks will yield a ton of them with
in a limited time if one knows how
to beguile those curious denizens of
the shadows. A scheme not al
lowed if one is caught at it, but
which is novel and is occasionally
practiced because of the prohibition,
is to man a fatboat with search
lights at night and scour the mud
flats, spearing the big, flat, awkward
fish.
The halibut bank, nine miles out
from the jetties, will furnish sport
and sure catches ofthat big sea fish,
and in the same locality the Jewish
are plentiful, while cod are there in
unnumbered schools. CLANS, and
crabs, and Holsters may be raked
out almost anywhere along the
shallow water of mudbanks, while
the tame" oyster, as the Eastern
bivalve is termed by the natives;
the small, indigeous bivalve, and
that curious "webfoot clam" as
Captain Ball has named the rock
oyster, are to be had in quantities
to satisfy any ones appetite for the
trouble of running them down.
The Eastern, as we'll as the native
oyster beds are we'll up the bay.
The rock oyster is to be found out
side the bar and along the cliffs of
the seashore proper. 1t seeks the
salt water, and is accessible only
at the lowest tide, and then only to
those who use heavy pick or a
stick of dynamite to break the rock
into which they have burrowed.
1t is worth all ones trouble, how
ever. A visit to Yaquina bay
without good feed of rock oysters
is trip lost.
Captain Ball, collector of the
port, is authority for the statement
that whales in large schools visit
the Yaquina Bay region every year
and in such numbers as TO cauee

of this city. in the fourteenth round of what
was to have been a twcnty-tive-round fight
at l16 pounds before the Lenox Athletic
Club tonight. Gardner proved himself to
be Kelly's superior III hard hitting and bull
dog tenacity. Kelly, undoubtedly, was the
better ring general but it was case of a
boxer against fighter and the fighter won.
Gardner left himself wide open and drew
Kely's leads only to counter them with
jabs chop blows and right swings which
played havoc with Kelly's usually natty
appearance. When Kelly was taken to his
corner after being counted out he COM
planned of his left side and said that he
thought some of his ribs had been broken
in the third round.
In the eighth round Gardner rubbed his
left over his opponents face and the referee
eleventh Referee White claimed that Gard
ner locked his left ankle with mis- opponent
and threw him down with a left swing and
warned him not TO repeat this trick. In the
fourteenth round, with plenty of steam be-
hind his blows, Gardner kept chopping his
left to the face and chest Kelly contented
himself with countering. Gardner sent In
a hard right punch over the heart and then,
with lefts and rights on the jaw. he sent
Kelly to the floor, where the New Yorker
remained for nine seconds. He was groggy
when he got up and Gardner swung his
right and left for the head. sending Kelly
to the floor, where he rolled over on his
back and was unable to get up until the
referee had counted off ten seconds.

increase this year over the former-named
year. From these two tables it draws the
conclusion that an ''advahce in wages
means simply an Increase in the total pay
roll. regardless of the number OF names on
tie roll, and pretends to show that in the
case Of the Nordyke & Marmon Company
which shows an increase of ) per cent in
the wage scale, there Is an actual decrease
III the scale of nearly 40 per cent. 1t rea-
sons thus: In 1894 220 men received. per
cent. less than $14e00 a month, or $50 40
each. while in 1898 375 men received $14, 900
q month, or 1888 each. Any person who
reads the folder referred to would have to
study O. long time to concoct such a scheme
Sentinels brainy man Is really deserving of
credit as a fine piece of work, suitable only
Tor the Sentinel. however.
The facts in the case, and any reader of
the folder would readily concur in this
statement. are that the figures given in the
column showing increase are really the ac-
tual per cent. of increase in the wage scale
or in other words. in the case of the Nor
dyke a. Marmon Company, 375 men are now
receiving $4,000 a MONTH which is per
ceived from this same company under the
wage scale in operation in 1894. The same
is true of all the other firms.
The Sentinel again seems to willfuly mis-
figures came from the Office of the state
statistician. This is doing Mr.. Conner
great injustice. The folder plainly states
that only in cases where ii is expressly
stated as a fact were the figures obtained
from Mr.. Conner. and as plainly states that
all other figures were secured from the
manufacturers themselves by the author of
the folder The injustice to Mr.. Conner lies
In the fact that his figures are obtained
under promise of the strictest secrecy and
single firm, but gives only the totals as
referring to particular industries.

THE CUBAN ASSEMBLY.
An Old store lis the FaneuiI Hall of
the Island Republic.

NEW YORK Oct. 2S.-A dispatch to the
Herald from Santiago says: THE cradle of
Cuban independence is the desolate fishing
village of Santa Cruz, a place with only
four hundred inhabitants. An old store is
the Faneuil Hall of the new republic There
the Cuban Assembly was called together for
the first session Oct a. There are eight
deputies from each of the six corps of the
Cuban army. After organization the first
business that will occupy the Assembly
will be the appointment of a committee to
consult with President Mckinley in regard
to the state of affairs in Cuba. The COM
position of the committee will be: General
Calixto Garcia. chairman; Gonzalo de Que
sada Cuban charge d'affaires i'm Washing
tom Carlos Parade and Gen. Mayia Rod
riguez The committee will go to Washing
ton to see what can be done about dismiss
ing the army. One thing is certain, the
organization of the army will remain as 1t
is until the commission makes it's report.
The committee Will endeavor to make an
arrangement by which the army will re-
ceive some pay before it's dissolution In or
der to avoid brigandage. Food and water
are scarce in Santa Cruz, and the Assembly
will probably adjourn in about a week to

Charging $40 Head on Cattle Arriv-
ing ut Cuban PORTS.


ing at Cuban Ports.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 2S-Secretary Will
son brought up at the Cabinet session to-
day the fact that Blanco is still charging
$40 head for beef cattle going into Cuban
ports controlled by the Spaniards. while the
United States is admitting beef cattle free
of duty to ports controlled by American
officials. The Cabinet concluded that it has
no power at present to change this state
of affairs, and that Blanco must bear the
responsibility. AS soon as the United States
takes possession of various ports, however,
this will be changed. Some of the ports
near Havana will be opened to the free en-
try of beef cattle and other things, and that
may result in benefit to Havana.
Information has been received by the gov
eminent that the Spanish officers have
ceased to break up and carry away things
that are regarded as immovable property in
Cuba Such things as are now being taken
are giving no concern to the American au-
thorities.
An attempt has been made to create some
interest in a supposed refusal of the Amer
lean government to send war ships to Ha-
vana, as asked for by the commission. The
facts are that some six or seven weeks ago
Admiral Sampson suggested that it might
be we'll to have one or more United States
ships in Havana harbor, and that a light
cruiser might be needed to proceed from
Havana to other places where it might be
necessary to send officers of the commits
sion The government did not comply with
this suggestion, and since then nothing has
been done about it, and further request
has been made for ships.
