Reinforcements In the shape of Bill Bloomfield, Cooney and Dougherty reached Santa Rosa today. Bloomfield accounted for his tardiness by explain ing that his sixth barge, recently con structed, had sprung a Charley horse In the steering gear and needed his attention. 'Tls said that to go swim mlnsr in the Sacramento River within 20 miles of Antioch a permit must be obtained from William Bloomfield & Company, half owners of aforesaid ham let. A five-mile walk was the portion of the Colts this morning owing t the fact that the ball park was still too damn to permit practice. In the afternoon the Santa Rosa committee of the Chamber of Com merce availed themselves of the kind offer of the Eebastopol baseball di rectors to the free use of their ground, which sheds the water quicker and was practically dry. Accordingly 22 men took the Interurban car and arrived tt Eebastopol at 2 o'clock, where they had their first real workout. , The con dition of the recruits was surprisingly good after' one hour's batting and field ing practice. A seven-Inning game be tween the Regulars and the Yannigans Was pulled off. As Is usual in these preliminary games the Tannlgans took the scalp of the Regulars by a score of to 4. The lineup of the Regulars was: Pitchers, Russell. Crespl and Cal lahan; catcher. Murray; first, Calla han; second, Mohler. shortstop, Coltrln; third. Barker: outfielders. Culver, Var lan. Crespl and Doty. The Yannigans were: Pitchers. Ag Jiew. Eastley and Dobbyn; catcher. Jackson; first, Williams; second, Guig ni; shortstop. Martlnonl; third, Jewett; outfielders. Girot, Cullen and Eastley. Vmpire. Ed Hennessey, of San Fran cisco, The features of the game were the catching of Murray and the hitting of Varian. Cullen and Barker. Bobby Coltrln and Eastley cut loose In mid season form and Callahan struck out four men In the two innings he worked. Kid Mohler. Doty. Agnew, Girot and most of the veterans took things eas ier, having In mind the fact that the training season consists of four weeks. On account of the game on Friday with the Seals, the boys were especially anx ious to get In shape, as this will be a great occasion In Santa Rosa and the weather has been more damaging for the Portland club than for the Seals, who have been having fine weather for the past three weeks.

New York Yacht Club members heard last night that Sir Thomas Ltpton had In prepara tion a letter embodying suggestions with reference to still another chal lenge for the America's cup and prob ably would dispatch the missive within a day or two to the Royal Ulster Tacht UNIVERSITY OF OREGON. Eugene, March 19. (Special.) Carl R. Fenton was todav elected captain of the Unl verslty of Oregon basketball team for the season of 1914. There were no other candidates and his election was unanimous. Fenton is a Junior In college and has played center on the varsity team for three years. He Is generally consul ered the premier center in conference basketball. Last year he was unanim ouslv chosen by the critics for that nositlon on the All-Northwest five. This season Injuries have kept him from showing his form of the last two years. He sustained a bruised back on the northern trip made by the Oregon team and was out of all the remaining games, with the exception of final se ries with the Oregon Agricultural Col lege. However, he was placed second to Savsge. of Washington, on the All Northwest aggregation, and was the only Oregon man picked by Hayward In his selection. Fenton is an all-around athlete, playing left guard on the football eleven and right field on the baseball nine. Before entering Oregon he n laved with the champion Dallas bas ketball team, which toured the United States In 1908. He is registered from Dallas and Is a member of Beta Theta Pi fraternity. SPORTING SPARKS B1 ERT HUGHES, the bantam boxer who beat Walter Williams In Port land recently, has been suspended by the Canadian amateur authorities, but not because of charges preferred against him by a Portland man. He posted S100 as a forfeit for a match with Paul Pederson. another Vancouver 115-pounder. thus disqualifying himself. Basing the prediction on the hard luck showing of the Seals against the Chicago White Sox. when they lost three In four games by narrow mar gins, one San Francisco writer opines that Ewlng's boys are to be the bard luck players of the Coast League. Pre paring for the worst. More than $20,000 will be distributed In purses for harness races at the an nual Vancouver exhibition races from September 1 to 6. The programme pro vides for four S1300 Btakes. George Hlldebrand leaves this week for the East, where he will receive In structions from Ban Johnson relative to his umplrlcal duties in the American League this season. One San Francisco writer suggests that it would have been better for Mc Credle had he emulated some fighters and drawn the color line. Ralph Willis, who pitched for Spo kane and Vancouver last year, says he has landed a Job with a Central League club. There's nothing the matter with Tub" Spencer's arm. The trouble is higher up. He came within a shade of losing his Job with the Seals last week, but is to get another chance to stick close to the hydrant. Grand circuit tracks are divided on the style of racing for 1913. Some of them have adopted the three-heat sys tem to the exclusion of the old five heat method, while others adhere to the long races. This will be hard on horsemen, who must train their horses for the long and short events. In the Xorthwest the same variety will exist, with every meeting showing a three- heat race a day.

If 12 games are guaranteed in the Northwest, either with wortnwesiern League teams or independent organiza tions, the Chicago Giants, the colored baseball team which walloped the Port land Beavers four In five contests, will invade this section. Such is the word received by W. W. McCredie. the baseball owner, and he is busy assisting the railroad people In lining up exhibition games with Seat tle, Tacoma, Vancouver, Spokane and Victoria. Unless the tour is arranged by Saturday the negroes will leave for the East. "We can give the Giants at least two games in Portland, and three in a pinch," says McCredie. "If they can play April 6 at Seattle and April 13 In Portland the expenses of the trip will be covered, providing the weather. Is good. "I am very anxious to bring these players up here, and feel sure that Portland fans desire to see them In action." "McDowell's work around second bag has been mighty good," says the Cleve land Plain Dealer. "He handles him self in a way that leads one to think that he is up here to stay. He has not quite reached his hitting stride yet: every ball he hits seems to go into right field, whereas he should hit, as he declares, Into all fields. With more practice this should come to him." .

RAGES JULY 4 PROBABLE MOTORBOAT CLUB CONSIDER ING PORTLAND MEET Enthusiasts Rebuilding Speeders and Coast Records Will Be Broken, Is Belief. The Portland Motorboat Club will hold a race meet on July 4, If this date will not conflict with the annual As toria motorboat championship aquatic meet. This was decided upon at a meeting of the members of the racing fnmTntttea Tuesday evening at the clubhouse. The prospective meet will be staged at St. Johns, the scene of the 1912 races. J. L. Scarth, secretary of the racing committee, has written the Astoria Motorboat Club omciais asxing mat club to name the exact date for Its meet. Should the Astoria motorboat enthusiasts hold their aquatic meet on July 4, the Portland racers win en ter the Astoria events ana noia uimr competitions later. "I look for all tne woasi mororDoai speed records to go this year.' said C W Boost, commodore of the Port land Motorboat Club, last night. "There will be a new class in me nera inn season In the 16-foot racing boat. I look for keen competition in this class as many motorboat enthusiasts are building these boats. They will be the feature of the Portland Motorboat racing card this year. A great number of owners of racing motorboats have built new hulls for their engines In an effort to Increase speed." It Is probable that the local club will make Its annual cruise to Wllson ville this season and stage races there for trophies that are hung up by the business men of the city. OLYMPIC CLUB NAMES BOXERS Noonan, Malone and Jensen to Meet Multnomah Amateurs. SAN FRANCISCO. March 19. (Spe-j cial.) Boxing Commissioner Phil Wand, of the Olympic Club today announced definitely that those who will compete for that organization in the big tourna ment of the Multnomah Club in Port land, March 28. will be Phil Noonan. Frank Malone and William Jensen These three, accompanied by the club boxing Instructor, Billy Leonard, will leave Sunday for the north, where they will complete training. Noonan, the representative in the 135 pound class, experienced some difficulty in making the necessary business ar rangements for the time he will be away, but he has said for sure that he will be able to make the trip. Noonan Is a fast boy and Billy Leonard is expecting that he will "bring home the bacon." Frank Malone holds the Coast title In the 125-pound class. Jensen Is easily the peer of the club's bantams and the wearers of the winged "O" are confident that he will be victorious. Since McAllister's departure from amateur ranks, the Olympic Club 1? without a heavy and Is therefore send ing representatives In three classes only. They are, however, judging from past performances, perfectly able to give a good account of themselves and are confident of making good In their respective encounters. Seals- Have 13 Pitchers. BOTES SPRINGS, Cal., March 19. (Special.) Manager Del Howard does not believe In hoodoos. He was Jubi lant today when his staff of pitchers was Increased to 13. Jess Baker, the on Sunday. The addition of Baker gives the Seals a seasoned south-paw. Massow and Harklns, both left-handers, will hardly make the team and so It Is up to Baker to do all the south-pawing. Baker has been a per sistent holdout. GARDENS 0FTHE TURK Those of the Bosphorus Win Most of Admiration. Scribner's. The Turk has never acquired the reputation of his Arab and Persian cousins in the matter of gardens. Per haps it Is that he belongs to a younger race and has had more conflicting tra ditions out of which to evolve a style. For he Is a man to whom a garden Is a necessity. He would never be con tent like, ourselves with a bare lawn and a potato patch. He is given to staying much at home, he has a great love of flowers and fresh air, the na ture of his domestic arrangements leads him to screen his private life from observation. Hence It is that the gardens of the Bosphorus are one of the most characteristic features of that river-like strait. They have, more over, a definite cachet of their own. This Is largely prescribed to them by the nature of the soli on which they southpaw, came Into the 'fold and will are laid out. The banks of the Bo- report to the Seals in San Francisco phorus slope sharply bacn to a neigni of some 400 feet, and are broken by valleys penetrating more gradually Into the rolling table-lands of Thrace and Asia Minor. Few of their houses, there fore, do not enjoy same view of the water and of the opposite shore, rarely more than a mile or two away. The gardens of the houses are accordingly laid out with reference to those views, and are determined In form Dy the steepness of the hillsides on which they lie. They are terraces, that Is, one or many according to the size of the gar den. Italian gardens are often laid out on the same principle. And the analogy is carried a step farther by the decora tive part played In Constantinople by the cypress and the stone-pine. But the gardens of the Bospnorus have real ly very little of an Italian air. The smallest patch of ground in Italy Is more architectural than the largest Turkish estate. Except In their mosques and the dependencies thereof the Turks have never been great putters together of stone and mortar. They do put any amount of stone and mortar together in retaining and enclosing walls, but the result has little architectural ef fect. They do not trim their terraces with stone or marble balustrades, while the lack of garden sculpture Is with them a matter into which religion enters.
