Steamboat Man lii

Eugene Brock well known steam
boat engineer on the Columbia river
for the last 50 years, was yesterday
removed to St. Mary's hospital DR..
Estes, who has been his attending
physician for the past year thought it
advisable to have him where he can
receive the best OF attendance. Mr..
Brock has been ailing for the past
year Of general debility and old age,
and when seen yesterday stated that
he thought the hospital was the best
place for him and remarked that he
already felt better since being there
and expects to be out in a short time.
He thinks it is doubtful however if he
will ever again be able to resume his
old steamboat life, for he says he Is
getting Old. and will never regain
strength enough, to take up the ac-
tive work of an engineer. Before his
illness, the last position he held was
on the custom boat Patrol.

Sure To Be Missed

Word reached this city yesterday
that Harry Blanchard, the we'll
known and popular purser Of the
steamer Hassaio, Of the O. X. & N.
service, has resigned his position and
will engage in other pursuits. The
matter is not accounted for so his
hosts Of friends are at loss to un-
derstand his leaving a situation
wherein he was looked upon as per-
mancnt fixture so long as he was
alive. He has been on the William
cite and Columbia rivers since his
early youth (and he's not so old, at
that), and has myriads Of friends near
and far who will earnestly regret to
hear Of his lapse to other lines. He
was one Of those men who fitted ex-
actly in his place and he never for
got the welfare Of his company nor
that OF his passengers, and when. that
is said there remains but little else
to say.

A Quiet Fourth

The police and sheriff's Office had
little difficulty in handling the crowds
on the Fourth, and practically no ar
rests were made. As a matter of fact
there were many trivial violation OF
ordinances, but as rule the authori-
ties were willing to turn their eyes
the other way just because it was a
period of exuberant patriotism and
general joy However, there were
many warnings given and as rule
the turbulent element was kept
within proper bounds. The number
of bad accidents was surprisingly low
when the amount of giant fire crack
ers, bombs, revolvers, and cannons
that were used is considered. Of
course there were many slight acci-
dents. "As a sane and safe Fourth
the celebration in Astoria was per-
haps horrible example of what a
polite, rational celebration ought not
to be- complained one man yester-
day, but as d general good time it

|MR. BROWNELL Gets
APPOINTMENT
RETURNED LAST NIGHT FROM
HILLsBORO WITH FORMAL
COMMISSION FOR DEPUTY
DISTRICT ATToRNEYsHIP.

Howard Browneil went to Hills-
boro yesterday to consult with Dis
trict Attorney Tongue III relation To
the appointment of deputy district
attorney for Astoria, and returned
last night with the commission ior
the place in his pocket Mr.. Tongue
had announced to one or two men in
this city by letter that he intended TO
appoint Mr.. Brownell TO the position.
For several weeks past there have
been intimations that the appoint
ment would in all probability go the
way it finally did, though strong Eff
forts were made By the many friends
Of J. G. McCue in his behalf. The
district attorney came down here one
day last week and looked the field
over, but he apparently found that
the more he was willing to consult
with the local politicians the more
certain II was that his task In making
a selection would become all the
harder. That the appointment Of Mr..
Brownell will give satisfaction is the
confident prediction Of his many
friends.
Il is hinted that one reason why
Mr.. McCue's candidacy did not re-
ceive stronger consideration lay ID
the fact that he already holds >
Legislative position by election, and
that the constitution forbids the
holding Of more than one public Of
flee at a time; and hence the appoint
ment Of Mr. McCue at this time
would have meant the necessity Of
his resignation from the deputyship
at the time Of the next session of the
Legislature, in the event that he chose
to hold that position instead of the
deputyship. One or more lawyers
had even gone further, and averred
that it would not have been legally
possible for him to have held the two
places at the same tint, entirely ire
spective Of the actual sessions Of the
Legislature. AT all events Mr.. McCue
apparently filled his term as deputy
with credit to himself and satisfaction
to the community, and the friends Of
Mr.. Brownell are expecting the same
of him

put them in Jail Sometime during
the night the men broke the chain
and escaped with the boat. That

Showers Of Rice

When Miss Edna Kidd, of South
Portland, and her sister, Miss Eva,
got OFF the Undine Friday evening
and daintily hastened into the Kamm
line Office, they were surprised to see
all of the officers Of the Undine lined
up in stately order at the Office door.
Inside the Office Ed. Donnelly, the
assistant freight clerk, was looking
out and also wondering what the
matter could be. AS Miss Kidd step
ped into the Office to greet her friend,
Mr. Donnelly, they both were show
cred with handsful of rice from the
line of Undine officers. Miss Kidd
waited only to emit one little gasp Of
startled surprise before she dropped
her hand baggage and fed. Mean
time rice was flying everywhere. If
there was not a bushel of the white
grains thrown, there must have been
at least three pecks, and a goodly
share Of it fell about Mr.. Donnelly's
shoulders. Later Mr.. Donnelly de-
MED that there was any occasion for
throwing the race at this time Miss
Kidd and her sister spent the Fourth
in Astoria very enjoyably and yester-
day morning went up to Skamokawa
to visit with relatives until Thursday,
when they will return to Portland.
On Thursday Mr.. Donnelly is also
going to Portland to spend few
