REGATTA WILL Be
BIG SUCCESS
COMMITTEE MEETS LAST NIGHT IN
HEADQUARTERS = TRAEsAcTs
LARGE AMOUNT OF BUSINESS
BABY SHOW, DOG SHOW, ETC.

The regatta committee held one Of the
most enthusiastic meetings since its or
ganization last night. Every one present
was full of interest in the coming event
and plans which had been made thus far
were reported on by the different chair
men.
Mr.. Troyer of the water sports com
mittee stated that prospects were ex-
eeedingly bright for securing some of the
best novelties in this line, and there will
in all probability be some fine exhibi-
tions in the rowing races. The Portland
Rowing Club will send down representa-
tives to take part.
Preparations for the selection Of
queen are well under way, and the COM
mittee expects to be able to announce
the name Of the lady chosen sometime
in the near future. In the matter OF
providing races for the fishboats, Mr..
Lorntsen was authorized to figure on the
same amount as was used last year, in
carrying out this part Of the program,
and the committee will endeavor to allow
more money for this part of the program
if possible.
The dog show is sure to be given, and
it is proposed to charge an entrance fee
for each dog entered, the money to be
used in prizes and the incidental ex-
penses, This part OF the regatta is
bound to be one of the best features Of
the entire celebration, unless it is the
baby show, which is another novel event,
being planned for.
All the prettiest Clatsop county babies
will be on exhibition and as this county
is not to be beaten in high class babies.
the show is sure to be well worth see
ing, 1t is proposed to place this part Of
the regatta in charge of the ladies,
though the committee has not yet de-
cided on who they viii be-
Another new feature is the automobile
race. This is a sure thing. Chairman
Fox of the land sports committee, is
further planning a clay pigeon shoot. and
is in correspondence with some of the
best shots on the coast. He has every
assurance that number of these cracks
will enter. Local shots, who are inter-
ested are urged to communicate the fact
to the chairman, and thus aid him In his
work. Mr.. Fox has a number Of other
ideas which he will put into execution
and which will add greatly to this years
regatta,
AS things are coming along at present
the regatta this year is going to be the
biggest which Astoria has ever wit
messed, and the crowds will be greater
than ever from the outside towns, and
surrounding country.

A DREADFUL DEATH
Portland Lad Crushed and Drown.
cd at Long Beach.
DERELICT LOL THE CAUSE
Watching the Sunset With Several
Friends He 10 Caught Beneath II
In the Rush Of Breakers-- Com
munity Shocked.
DERElIcT LoL THE CAUSE

Late on Wednesday afternoon last, at
Holman's Station, on Long Beach, Wash.
one Of the sadcst accidents Of the sea
son transpired, and cyentuated In the
dreadful death OF Robert Neimus, an IS.
year.old lad, son Of Mr.. ard Mrs. Peter
Neimus. Of East Third and Burnside
streets. Portland, and who was summer
Ing on the nortbshore for the past few
weeks.
In company with a group Of young
friends Neimus was watching the sunset
from the beach, the spectacle being un.
usually brilliant that evening. and, with
three OF his companions, was percbed up.
on a derelict log at the edge Of the
water-reach. Suddenly wave Of I'M
due proportions swung in and It's vol
umne raised. and turned the log. and all
four Of the young men made leaps for
safety; all escaping but the subject Of
this sketch, who was caught by the roll
ing log and pinned down TO the sands;
and as the wave receded II did not carry
the huge stick from of his limbs, and
the combined efforts Of his almost frantic
friends was unavailing to save him.
One or two rushed up the beach for
assistance and the others stayed with him
in the vain hope that something would
happen to make his release possible; but
long before help arrived the victim OF
the accident was crushed and drowned
by the succession OF breakers that rolled
In. working the log In its cruel and
crushing force, and choking back the lads
piteous screams with tidal rushes OF
water. His young friends were almost
beside themselves when the crowd that
had been summoned arrived on the scene
with tools and gear OF all sorts to aid
in his freedom.
The whole community was profoundly
shocked at the peculiarly awful details
Of the affair and the sympathy Of the
hour made itself manifest in the general
aid lent in preparing the body for burial
and for final despatch to the bereaved
home in the metropolis. The remains
will be sent there today on the 7. },
Potter; the legal preliminaries having
been attended to in the interim.
