THE REGATTA.

Astoria will have a regatta. At an
enthusiastic meeting Of the merchants
Friday night almost eight hundred dol
lars was subscribed toward that pur-
pose. Many other merchants expressed
themselves in favor of the regatta and
pledged their financial support on con-
sulting with other members of their
firms. This is a manifestation of the
proper spirit. 1t il planned to raise
four thousand dollars and if Friday
nights meeting may be accepted as a
criterion the fund will soon reach that
figure. The meeting was splehdidly
managed. Following a preliminary dis
cussion of the advisability of holding
the regatta a permanent organization
was effected and a committee or arrange
ments appointed. This was clothed with
full power to act. A soliciting committee
composed of the most representative
merchants in the city was appointed and
is at work among the people obtaining
additional subscriptions. Reports from
the members Of thiS committee are most
favorable. The soliciting committee
faces quite a task. Probably five hun
dred dollars which heretofore has come
from the restricted part of the city will
not be obtained this year; the money
must be raised elsewhere. That It will
be done seems assured for already some
Of the merchants who subscribed various
sums at Friday nights meeting announce
their intention of increasing their sub
scriptions. The committeeman are work

ton for life. But few days have passed
since we were awed by accounts OF the
loss of life sustained in the sinking of
the French submarine Farfadet. And
now, death is in our midst, he has tax
en- from US almost two score of our
. beloved "bluejackets," the men behind
the guns, the lads o the sea upon whom
has devolved the maintenance OF the
country's integrity. An expression of
sympathy for the mothers, fathers, sis
tiers and brothers of these boys who
have met with such shocking and un-
timely ends is not amiss, but mere
words cannot possibly alleviate the suff-
ering of those who have been robbed of
their loved ones. We draw a mental
picture of grey haired parents, wiring
ing their hands, rocking to and fro in
the throes of anguish, grief stricken,
possibly shrieking over the loss of a
son, and praying that life be returned
to the body lying chilled in death at
San Diego morgue; of sisters stumb-
lisg about like things, not like human
beings like things bereft of their SEN
ses, their eyes swollen from crying, their
faces blank, utterly unable to compre-
bend the horror of the calamity that has
been visited upon them. The son, the
light of the mothers eyes, the boy of
whom she was so proud in his suit of
blue, in his jersey with its great flowing
collar and the trousers with the odd
baggy legs, is dead. The cherished hope
of future meeting, of holding her boy
in her arms and giving him a motherly |
mug is blishted. The boy is dead. She
may never see him more, is even denied |
the privilege of looking upon his placid
features. But it is better so;the horror
of death is sufficient Cruel steam has
removed all semblance of a human be.
ing from the face of the loved son. To
these, the mothers, the fathers, the sis
ters and the brothers of the Bennington's
dead crew do we extend our sincere
sympathy, and to the lads who now
pitch and toss en- beds of pain, and to |
their more fortunate comrades who are
plunged into profound sorrow over the |
loss of their fellows.

IN LIGHTER VEIN
A Fragment.

What, il. while | sit here alone,
A voice l have not heard for years
Should greet me in the low sweet tone
That once was music to my ears;
And should start from Memory's sway
And, turning. find you sitting there
Unchanged as though 'twere yesterday
Unchanged as though 'twere yesterday
Your feet went tripping down the stair
Or ii, upon some summer day,
Mid song of birds and hum of bees,
| should 30 down the woodland way
To om old tryst beneath the trees;
And, starting back in glad surprise,
i should behold you waiting there,
The old light shining in your eyes
The sunlight tangled in your hair.
In vain--I shall not see the glow
Divine brown eyes or catch the smile
VI ruby lips; but yet | know
sThat you are near me AL the while,
For l so loved you in that range
OF sunny years that my poor heart
Would bleed afresh and count it strange
To thing God held us far apart.
And 50, when evening shadows creep,
And night falls softly DER the lea,
You touch my eyelids and | sleep,
And sleeping dream of heaven and
thee.
And when some summer morn shall
break
That finds me chilled by deaths cold
cold dew,
You need but kiss me. | shall wake,
And, waking. be in heaven with YOU.
