Auto Day on Waterway

A group Of Astoria automobilists
are preparing planes for an odd, yet
pleasant, tour in their cars, hence to
Seattle, to meet the great Armada, on
or about the 10th instant. The idea,
novel, and practicable, is for the cars
to be run on board one of the huge
barges here, and with their respective
parties OF ladies and gentlemen, the
whole concern to be towed direct to
Kelso, Wash, where they will
take the very passable roads thence
to the Sound metropolis, and return
ing the same way, The party is likely
to include the cars belonging tc
Messrs. G. c. Fulton, G. w, Sanborn
lF. A. Fisher, P. A, Stokes, Frank l.
Parker, DR.. o. B. Estes and Dr. J
/ A. Fulton. The trip can be easily
made between sunrise and sunset, an'
will be unique in character and de
lightful in performance; and they vii
all see the feet, which is the mali
thing, Of course.

BISHOP POTTER ILL.
Has to Abandon Participation in the
Church Work.

NEW YORK, May l.-Announce-
ment was made last night that the
Right Rev. Henry Goldman Potter,
Bishop OF the Episcopal Diocese of
New York, is so seriously i'll that he
has been forced to abandon his par
ticipation in the affairs of the church.
For week Bishop Potter has been
confined to a room in his residence
on West S9th street. suffering from
the effects of physical breakdown
due 10 overwork. His condition, which
by his physician and by those friends
who have seen him is admitted to be
grave has been made worse by at
tacks of stomach and liver trouble.
Bishop Potter is "a years old and
until the day his health gave way he
insisted on doing as much work as
done by men much younger and
stronger. There was slight i'm
provement in his conditions yester-
day when it became possible for him
to sit on a couch in his room for a
short time. He is still very weak,
however, DR.. Janvren, Bishop Pot
tcr's attending physician, could not
conceal his fears. Il hope" he said
"that Bishop Potter's condition is moi
dangerous. | hope this stage of hi:
illness is not critical and am glad
to be able to say he is better now
little better than he was three ol
four days ago. | cannot deny, how
ever, that he is very i'll. His break
down is purely physical. Mentally hi
is the same capable man he alway.
has been. His physical weakness
was brought about by the tremendous
amount Of hard work he did. Trouble
