A SAD SOUVENIR.

Without being able to vouch for the
truth of the sad little story that comes
up from San Francisco, anent the find
ing of the name-board of the good old
steamship Columbia by the wife of a
veteran member of her earliest crew, on
the sands outside the bar of the Bay
City, we admit the probability of the
incident, the beauty of the story, and
hope that it is so. 1t would be too bad
to shatter such a tale by intimating
that it is fake for which some clever
reporter down there is responsible; and
SO, admitting the entire truth of the
yarn we are glad to know the fotsam
reached the hands OF people who would
deeply appreciate the gift from the sea
and know how to treasure it.
The tale might have been infinitely
more interesting if, upon surface of this
board that hailed from the pilot-house
of the doomed ship, could have been
deciphered some last message from poor
Doran, the brave master who went
down with her and from whom no word
of any sort has ever been received. But
we cannot have everything as we would
like it; and the silence that all deplore
must be maintained for all time; the
simple fact Of Doran's deliberate and
manly death at the supreme crisis of
his life and career, being all that is sure,
and quite enough. to kindle the ever.
kindly thought Of the genial gentleman
and clever seaman. He and his vessel
lie in their 6O-fathom grave, but both
will live in the friendly memory Of Pa
cifc Coast people as long as marine
records are kept alive.

TRY IT JUST oNcEl

There are hosts of people in this city
and there will be many more from
abroad. who will welcome the abolition
during the coming Regatta, Of the usual
nuisances that go with public festivals
the confetti, the return-ball, the cracker
stick, and all other ready made noises
and atrocities that have nothing to
recommend them; and to this end. the
Astorian reiterates its plea that the
Regatta committee and the city authori-
tie put their mastery feet on all of them
Just for once; and see if the series of
germ-carrying, aggravating. useless de-
vices cannot be stamped out, so far as
Astoria is concerned.
They are severally the means Of
making overtures at once insolent and
unavoidable; and they are never used
without the extravagance that leads to
bad feeling, if not worse. The people
have no protest to enter against any
legitimate and acceptable phase of
enjoyment, especially at such a season
as the one approaching; but they have
seen so much Of downright, deliberate
insolence passed in the use Of the things
named above, that they are justified in
affirming their adverse sentiment.
The ill-bred, the reckless, the impu.
dent, we have with US always; and in
the hands Of any of this group the most
innocent toy becomes menace and a
source of annoyance. People with due
regard for the feelings and comfort Of
others are not given to the disuse of
these things, but they are the ones
who suffer most.

Must The Professors Wives Get Out AM

A woman who is connected with a
prominent college in the middle west

lin?) the professors now receive $1,000
a year, which, after ten years service is
increased to $1,000 year. According
to the author Of the letter the income
of the professors has remained nearly
tationary for twenty years, while the
cost of living has immensely increased.
Hard coal which used to seem high
enough at $5 or $5.25 ton now ranges
from SO to 81 ton. Soft coal and
wood have followed in its upward flight.
Such staples Of family consumption as
meat, milk, butter, eggs, fruit and vege-
tables have all taken on prices which
makes one sigh for the old days of cheap
and lavish living
Going on the writer says: "People

conditions it is evident that something
is bound to happen. The something in

REID ROAD PROGRAM.

The business-like program inaugu.
rated by the Chamber of Commerce will
commend itself to every lover of fair
dealing, and is likely to be entirely sue
cessful to the genuine success of the
protector of the line and to all con-
cerned, including the general public Of
Astoria. We cannot have too many
roads in, nor out. of this city, and we
are amenable to every reasonable scheme
for the securing Of the last possible one
of them; but We want them all on an
equitable footing; upon condition that
shall make for freedom from the convie-
tion that we have been done, or rather
undone, in the getting of them.

testing owners of right-of-way lands

and filing it in escrow until Mr.. Reid
and his colleagues shall have accom-
pished enough to ensure the consumma-
tion of the road and its operation, with
ample time given them to work out their
end of the proposition, could scarcely
be improved upon, and is square bid
for the good faith of all involved.
1t requires a goodly manifestation of
public spirit on the one hand, and a
downright showing Of honest energy On

ELEVEN ENIOMBED
 IN A BURNING MINE
There Is Little Hope That the In1pris-
 oned Men Can Be Rescued.

Drytown. Cal Nov 3O- A severe fire is raging at the HOO foot level of the Fremont Cover gold mine. The fire was discovered at noon today. Eleven men are still entombed below this level. with no hope of being res cued alive. Four are Americans and seven Italians. All the rest escaped alive.
 General Manager GoOdall with a large force of miners is working from the Cover side on the 60O-fOot level fighting the fire and trying ts rescue the miners. All of the Cover side of the mine may be saved and there is still hope that a part of the Fremont shaft may be saved. The Cover has been famous gold producer for over fifty years and has ore bodies enough in sight to last twenty years longer. By steel deeper sinking still greater ore bodies will be developed. Hence great efforts will be made tO save the shaft. .

RHEUMATISM

Proves It a Symptom of
 Feeble Kidneys
Get These Ingredients and
 Mix Them Yourself to Get
 Relief From This. i

Recent hospital reports show that the dread disease, rheumatism. is steadily increasing throughout the country. All known means of relief are being suggested to save the great amount of suffering this winter. espe- cially among those who are not in a position to pack up and visit the noted health resorts to be treated. Recent tests prove rheumatism not exactly a disease in itself. but a severe symptom of kidney trouble. a condition caused by clOgged up pores of the eliminative tissues in the kidneys which fail to filter the poisonous waste matter and uric acid from the blood, permitting these substances to remain in the veins and decompose. usually settling about the joints and muscles, causing the intense pain, swelling and stiffness of rheumatism.
 A well. known specialist. who has probably treated more. cases of rheu- matism than anyone. else, and who is also the most successful. gives the fol- lowing simple treatment. which is harmless and inexpensive, and so sim ple that anybody can mix it at'hOme.
 The ingredients are: Fluid Extract Dandelion. one-half ounce; Compound KargOn. one ounce. Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla. three ounces. Go to any good prescription pharmacy and get these three vegetable ingredients and mix them by shaking in a bottle, taking as dose a teaspoonful after each meal and again at bedtime.
 There is nothing better in the world flor backache. kidney and bladder trouble. too. Such symptoms as ire quent and painful urination. soreness, weakness. general and nervous debiI- [ ity are caused by certain acids and poisonous waste matter, decayed tis- sue. etc. in the blood. whichs the kid neys will clear and purify after few doses of this prescription.
