Slavin gave an exhibition, one of his op jwnents being a colored man named E. F. Padmore. This man put up a very tame fight, and the sports present were Inclined to resent the easy way Slavin let him off. No evil results of his bout were appiront to him after the contest. About midnight, however. Padmore, who was attached to the United States Hos pital Corps here, sent for Mr. Slick, of the hospital, saying that his feet were cold and numb, and that his left side In the vicinity of his heart was causing much uneasiness. Dr. Taylor, atttacheel to the hospital, promptly attended the pntlent, accompanied by two other physi cians, but they were unable to render any effectual assistance, and he died at 1:30 A. M. The three doctors, who also wit nessed the fight, held a post-mortem ex amination, and stated that death was the result of what Is popularly termed athlete's heart. The affair created a sen sation, but no blame is attached to Sla vin. The latter is to fight William Luci fer, the strong man and contortionist, for a purse of $500 and the gate money next week. J. McAuliffe, another Aus tralian pug-illst. who has been several months in Shanghai, will shortly visit Yokohama, when more boxing bouts will be In order, en route for San Francisco.

Drector and President Whitemore Are Aeain Chosen-Tiro New Mem bers Added to Board. Tho stockholders' meeting of the Port land Baseball Club was held last even ing at the Commercial Club for the pur pose of electing directors for 1&02. Last year's board, consisting of C. A. White more, William Goldman, A. H. Devers, J. P. Marshall and F. A. Spencer, was re-elected. C A. Whitemore was again chosen president: William Goldman, vice president; J. P. Marshall, secretary. Two new directors were added to the board C. K. Zilly and E. H. Hamlin. Eleven stockholders were present at the meeting, and the remaining shares were represented by proxies held principally C. A. 'Whitemore, re-elected Presi dent Portland Baseball Club. by William Goldman and J. P. Marshall. Those present were C. A. Whitemore. Wilham Goldman. J. P. Marshall. A. H. Devers, E. H. Hamlin, C. F. Swigcrt. Slg Werthelmer. A. Walter Wolfe, W. J. Rellly. Al Blckel and F. I. Fuller. After the meeting had been called to order Mr. Swigert, representing the stock held by the City & Suburban Railway Company, inquired into the financial con dition of the club. Outside of 5100 spent for building the caretaker's house on the grounds, $125 for advance money for the players, and a few incidental expenses, the treasurer reported no change from the detailed report sent to the stockhold ers at the end of the season of IDOL Nearly $70) cash Is at the disposal of the club, and. with the J.VX) guarantee In the hands of the league, this represents an earning of about $1200 from last season. This will give the club ample money with which to start the season without going into debt, as it did last year. After this report followed a general dis cussion as to the outlook for next sea son. The salary limit has been raised to 5J20), exclusive of Manager Vlgneux's salary, but the club does not expect to be obliged to expend that sum. The team this year will probably consist of the fol lowing: Vigncux, catcher; Mahaffey. first base; Anderson, second base; Hupp, third base: Delsel. short stop: Muller, left field; Rankin, right field or first base; Joe Ma haffey, Claude Berry, Engel and Salis bury, pitchers. It is possible that Weed may be retained, but no definite decision has been made. Brown has been released. This leaves two out-field positions open that will be filled from the pitchers and Rankin. Ed Rankin wants to set back In the game and Is confident that he can "make good." Joe Mahaffey Is a brother of last year's first baseman. Claude Berry is a "south paw" from Walla Walla. If Tinker is retained by the Chicago team, the Port land club will receive $500 for his release, otherwise he will be returned to this city. When the chair announced that the election of the club's directors for the coming season was In order, Ed Hamlin nominated C. A. Whitemore. William Goldman, A. H. Devers. J. P. Marshall and F. A. Spencer, last year's board. No further nominations were made, and C. F. Swigert moved the secretary be In structed to cast the unanimous ballot for those gentlemen. Immediately after the adjournment of the stockholders' meeting the directors held their meeting and elected officers. After a lengthy discussion, the directors decided to Increase the membership of the board to seven members. The power of doing so rested with the board. The object was to make It an easier matter to secure a quorum at the meetings. Last year considerable difficulty was experi enced In that line on account of the ab sence of several of the members from the city. When Mr. Marshall was on the road with the team and Mr. Devers In the East It was not always possible to get the remaining three directors to gether. As a result too much responsi bility was shifted on to the shoulders of the president. On a motion of A II. Devers. C. K. Zilly and E. H. Hamlin were elected for the positions.

CaL Why a Woman is Able to Help Sick Women When Doctors Fall How gladlv would men fly to wo man's aid did they but understand a woman's feelings, trials, sensibilities, and peculiar organic disturbances. Those things are known only to women, and the aid a man would give is not at his command. To treat a case properly it is neces sary to know all about it, and full information, many times, cannot be given by a woman to her family phy sician. She cannot bring herself to tell everything, and the physician is Mbs. G. H. Ciiappeli,. at a constant disadvantage. This is why, for the past twenty-five years, thousands of women have been con fiding their troubles to us, and our advice has brought happiness and health to countless women in the U.S. Mrs. Chappell, of Grant Park, 111., whose portrait we publish, advises all suffering women to use Lydia E. Pink ham's Vegetable Compound, as it cured her of inflammation of the ovaries and womb ; she, therefore, speaks from knowledge, and her experience ought to give others confidence.
