Laura Madsen Was Driven North
but Did Not Sight Mis-.
sing Ship.
SOME UNEAslNEss FOR HER
Feared She Met With Mishap
During Gales-Fine Weather
Clears HarbOr of Big
Fleet.

While shipping men express the con-
viction that the schooner W. f. CAIRNS
is safe, there is some reason for the
fear that perhaps she may have met
with disaster. Her continued absence
has created anxiety in some circles. al
though tug boat men and bar lilots
seem confident that she will show up in
due time
Yesterday the schooner Laura Mad
sen, which took a cargo Of lumber from
the Hume mill. reached port from San
Francisco. She was blown to the north
by the severe gales Of last week, but
her captain reports that he saw moth
ing of the missing Garms. The Mad
sen was fully 200 miles up the coast
but the Garms was nowhere to be seen.
The missing schooner was driven north
about two weeks ago. and it is some
what singular that she has not been
reported by any one Of the many yes
sells which have since passed up and
down the coast This is regarded as
a circumstance which gives god
ground for fear that the vessel has met
with some mishap. 1t Is known she is
notoriously slow, but, even at that. she
could have found her way back TO the
mouth Of the Columbia long ere this.
The probabilities are the storm has
damaged her rigging and she is detain-
ed of Vancouver island in consequence.
The Madsen had no easy time of IT.
She encountered the full fury Of last
weeks gales, and was 1s days reach
ing Astoria from San Francisco. She
came through the blow without very
much damage to her sails. but the
storm was much more severe than her
men desire to again experience. She
is to load lumber at the Hume mill.

eific Extended to 1911.
Ottawa, Ont. March THE govern.
ment has announced the modification
Of the Grand Trunk Pacific bill, which
will be submitted to parliament. II
has been found that the provisions OF
the original measure were impractical
in some cases and the construction of
this new transcontinental line was for
time looked upon as an impossibility.
The time for completing the line under
the provisions Of the new measure is
extended until 1911. On the mountain
section of the road the government will
guarantee the bonds to the extent OF
rs per cent Of the cost of construction.
The government will not take uosses-
sion OF the road in the event Of failure
of the Grand Trunk Pacific to pay in
terest on its bonded Indebtedness until
the payments are five years behind
time. The deposits of s5,OO0OOO of the
roads funds required under the orig
inal contract will be released at an
earlier period in the construction of the
road.

There are some very modest girls
who would rather surrender to be
kissed than to have their hair mussed
in the struggle.
Girl Brides are becoming a mighty
scarce article in the marriage market.
They are found only among the very
poor and the very rich. In the. middle
class-those with limited incomes-the
women are not content with the modest
household which satisfied their mothers
and men do not have to marry to find
female companionship. Consequently

HARsoR CLEARED OF VESSELS.
High Tide and Light Wind PERMITS
Bio Fleet to Depart.


After having been bar bound for l!
days at the mouth of the river, the
government transport Dix yesterday
got to sea. The bar was all that could
have been desired and the harbor was
entirely cleared of vessels of all de-
seriptions. The case Of the Dix at
tracted much attention, and locally
muh regret has been expressed bee
of her slop trip down the river and
her consequent detention at the mouth
of the river. The 30-hour trip from
Portland to Astoria lost IL days for
her.
A high tide and light northwest
wind leveled off the bar yesterday end
there was an incoming and outgoing
procession of no small magnitude. For
almose two weeks the storm king rad
held full sway, and the mild weather
yesterday was an agreeable change for
the shipping interests of the river. TIE
indications are that the good weather
will continue for several days, and If
the transport Buford manages to get
down from Portland at a better rate
than three and one-third miles an hour
she will doubtless suffer no delay at
Astoria.
