FIREMEN STRIKE.

NEW YORK, July le-The firemen Of
the Thirtyninth street ferry went on
strike yesterday. Only one of the three
boats of the line was running last night
and the South Brooklyn people which
patronize the line were greatly incon-
venienced. 1t was necessary for the en-
gineers of the feet to ship aboard the
West Brooklyn and act as stokers last
night. The firemen say the company re-
duced their wages from sl4.98 week to
1881. The men protested and asked for
a change in the scale.

The following communication relative
to this years regatta has been received.
and contains much OF wisdom and sound
sense:
Editor Astorian: Would II not be a
good idea to have this years regatta,
industrial fair or whatever you may
call it, little different from former
eventsi
The most successful features OF last
years regatta were the illuminated river
parade, the farmers fair, country dance
and small sports upon the water; these
should be duplicated with the addition
of a street carnival and few new
features, all of which could be pulled
off at an expense OF from $500 to
$4,000. While the outside yacht clubs
and bands cost too much.
The main objects of the regatta have
been to give the people OF and around
Astoria holiday and those who know
say that outside of the admirlls, com
modores and the 80 or less sportsmen
who participate in races and whose ex
penses have to be paid, very few Port
land people have come here. except those
who happen to be at the beaches.
The business people have been called
upon TO subscribe to the San Francisco
fund the hotel fund and to the Fourth
of July fund, in all, for about $4,000,
and it seems that more reasonable
celebration on newer lines would be a
welcome relief There is a nice balance
left from last years regatta, a street
carnival, country dance and similar fea.
lures would bring snug sum, so that a
subscription from the saloons. restaur
ants and those stores that have not sub
scribed to the hotel fund would easily
bring enough for splendid exhibition.
If the yacht clubs and rowing clubs Of
the coast would race for cups and for
sports sake it would be all right, but
when it comes to paying their expenses
and putting up big cash prizes then it
is time to make change.
When our fishermen get, through with
four months sailing upon the river they
want fun, and land sports, and an ex-
hibit Of farm products, country dances
and such, will suit them to r.
(Signed), APPEAL TO REASON.

DIAMONDS IN UNITED STATES.
Discovered In Four Regons-PIace Of
 Origin Unknown.

From the Scientific American.
 Never before in the history of the United States has there been such q de- mand for diamonds as there was in 1905. Large quantities were imported, but the country produced none. In 1903 it pro- duced diamonds to the value of $50. in 1901 1t had an output worth sl00. in ---I It's production was valued at $50, and in 1899 the country boasted native diamonds to the value of $500.
 Diamonds have been discovered in the United States in four different regions. but their actual place of origin Is in every case unknown. All have been found in loose and superficial deposits and all ac- cidentally. It is not at all improbable, however. that some day the original sources of this queen of gems may bs discovered
 The high price of diamonds has made the recent search for these precious stones in the United States and Canada keener than ever before. A careful watch for dia- monds was kept during the examination by the United States geological survey of many samples of gold and platinum sands at the Lewis and Clark exposition in Portland. Ore
 A lookout for diamonds has also heen kept by number of people who have been dredging for gold on an extensive scale in the rivers of California. In neither case have any finds been reported.

world. killed lions and tigers in India and hunted partners in the Rocky noun tains.
 Usually wolves and bears are enemies, and fight among themselves. Often one large bear will kill score of wolves be- fore the smaller animals, by reason of numbers, kill him.
 "Our dogs had struck the trail of a bear in the woods. and as we had been In III luck for a few days were following them eagerly on the chase. As the dogs had been trained to disregard wolves when we suddenly came upon about forty wolves we had not known of their pres ence until we were upon them.
 We were surprised when the wolves ran to a cave and there crouched awaiting the dogs As the hounds dashed into the fray there was a sudden scattering and yelps from two of the dogs, which showed us that something was wrong.
 We were not long, in discovering the source of trouble, for out of the cave rushed one of the largest bears I have ever seen. The wolves, standing on either side. formed passage for the big fellow. and then fell in behind him. The bear led the attack on our dogs, and although sev- eral of our first shots must have struck him, he aided by the wolves, laid low six of the wolf hounds before he gave up.
 Their leader dead. the wolves lost heart and took flight. Several of the party fol- lowed the dogs. which gave chase, and enjoyed good fight We killed thirty-one of the wolves and the bear. and then ex- plored the cave.
 Tt consisted of several caverns, in one of which was large nest, evidently occu- pied by the bear. In the others were small CT beds where the wolves had nestled. Bones of many animals were found, and 1t Is our opinion that the wolves carried the food to the cave for the bear.'

tight board fence six feet high. At one place is the "plucking box set in the side of the fence, and with the palings only four feet high. The foolish ostrich gets into it's head the entirely erroneous notion that the low fence offers an op- portunity for escape, and deliberately en- ters the trap. It is immediately caught from behind, and hood placed over It's head before 1t knows what has happened. The hood may be nothing more than an old black stocking. but 1t serves the pur- pose just as well as if the ostrich had de- liberately poked its head into the sand.
 Danger in an Ostrich's Kick.
 There are some vitally different charac- teristics between the ostrich and the mule There is no danger to human being in standing behind an ostrich, but 1t is a very dangerous experiment to stand in front of one After they are year old no one should go among them with out a good stick or a leafy tree limb in hand to frighten them away, for most of the time they will quickly give evidence of wanting to attack any one coming into their pasture Those going among them are liable to severe injury by kicking or tramping unless provided with some per- fectlv apparent means of defending them selves. The ostrich can kick or strike with unexpected strength, but as IL all ways strikes out in front this danger IS averted as soon as the plucker has cor nered a bird in the plucking box, and his assistant has hooded it.
 The value of the feathers depends upon the price obtained in the London market for the foreign product. The value is all ways so great, however, that extreme care is observed in plucling the feathers. It is customary to cut the tail feathers and one row of the largest quill feathers in the wing with pruning shears. and draw by hand the remaining two or three rows in the wing The ostrich is plucked first when six months old. and every eight months thereafter. Feathers of equal length are tied in a bunch as soon as plucked and sent to a grading table with
