the San Francisco Seals to Portland and

This will be good news to the Northern
fans. The plan is to have both teams
play a two weeks season In Portland and
Seattle, and while away the ball grounds
here will beMmlarged and made ready for
continuous baseball In Oakland. Instead of
in San Francisco. President Bert and Mr.
Ewlng arc already planning to rebuild
tiielr grounds in the ruined city. A site
near Market street has bren selected, and
as soon as the deal can be closed a force
f men will be put to work constructing
a KtcI grandstand.
Another thing considered yesterday "by
the Coast League magnates was the ad
visability of accepting financial aid from
the baseball leagues throughout the coun
try. Off en? of such aid have been pouring
In. and It may be that this aid will be
accepted and that every team in every
league in organized baseball will give the
proceeds of one ball game to the Coast

ATHENS. April 2S.-The feature of the
week at the Olympic games was the bril
liant record made by the American ath
letes. Martin J. Sheridan, of the Irish
American Athletic Club, especially dis
tinguished himself. He won 16 points in
the games, five for the shot-put, five for
throwing the discus, three for the stand
ing broad Jump and three for putting the
stone. He will score probably in the an
cient Greek discus-throw and the stand
ing high Jump, as well as in the hurdles,
if his leg holds out. The condition of
his leg is not good, however, and for
that reason he retired from the Pentath
lon series of contests today.
The Americans are greatly Impressed
by the gathering. They are pleased with
the Greeks, civilians and officials, who
have been most kind in their treatment.
Welcomed by King and. Princess.

Is illustrated by the fact that although
there were only two events Inside the
stadium today, throwing the Javelin and
weight-lifting. 35,009 spectators were In at
tendance. A feature of the meeting even
more pleasant than the general good hu
mor has been the attitude of King George
and the Princess and Princesses, whose
simple and kindly . manner has gone
straight to the hearts of all the visitor.
The King and the Princes, attired in In
conspicuous uniforms, have mingled with
the crowd, shaking bands and chatting
with many.

fighting. Thus encouraged. Carsey
started after the Englishman to put him
away, but 11 was a very foolish move,
and in the last three rounds Robspn
slammed the Westerner all around the
ring. It waa the opinion of those around
the ringside that Robson worked under

himself at any time.

CONVENTION IS ABANDONED
Oirlng to San Francisco Disaster
X. E. A. Postpones Meeting.
A. I. Craig, general passenger agent of
the Harriman lines In Oregon, received a
telegram from Chicago last night to the
effect that the National Educational As
sociation had decided to abandon its con
vention for this year. The executive com
mittee of the National Educational As
sociation held a special meeting In Chi
cago yesterday afternoon.
The convention was to have been held
in San Francisco In June, and Its aban
donment Is due to the great catastro
phe that has overtaken that. city. It Is
presumed that the contention will be held
next year at San Francisco.
For a time It was believed that Port
land stood a show of securing the con
vention, which would have brought to this
city from 15.0M to 20.030 persons. When
it was seen that It was next to Impos
sible for the convention to be held in
San Francisco the officers of the National
Educational Association were wired by
the Commercial Club an invitation to
meet here. At the noon luncheon at the
Commercial Club Friday 33X0 was pledged
by the members, which would have been
used for entertainment purposes If the
convention bad bees held In Portland.

her cargo. Those who, remained on
board are loyal to the vessel, and have
not a harsh word for Captain Suiter
or his officers, although the men were
nearly dead trom. starvation and dis
ease, brought on by lack of food, when
they reached San Francisco fully a
year after having: started on the'Ir voy
age. The elements were to blame for
the slow but nevertheless exciting
voyage, and no one knows it better
than the tars, for they had to work
through 4t all, and It was only by
almost superhuman efforts' that they
finally brought the vessel to her des
tination and In fairly good shape, with
the cargo Intact.
The Bardowie will in all probability
have to go on tho drydock for clean
ing; for during her Ioap serpentine
route from the English coast to this
port seaweeds and barnacles had a
splendid opportunity to - prosper and
grow large on th deep-going hull.
Calms and head-winds held the bark
back, and this gave the parasites still
better chance to strengthen their hold.
Tho fact that she rode out some terri
ble storms will likely also make a
clo?c examination of the hull desirable
on the part of the underwriters, al
though there Is nothing; superficially
to Indicate defects.
Although barely able to walk upon
reaching- San Francisco, the men. who
suffered from scurvy, are now well
and hearty, fresh food havlnjr brought
them around In good shape, "and thej
were all on deck yesterday when the
big three-master hauled Into her berth
at Columbia dock No. 1. whero her
cargo of plg-lron. fire-brick and gen
eral merchandise will be discharged.
The Bardowie was a year coming
from Newcastle", and It took her six
months from Cape of Good Hope to
San Francisco. She tried to round
Cape Horn, but was blown back re
peatedly, and finally Captain Suiter
decided to take the longer but less
dangerous route.
Off the Australian Coast a sailor
named Vcrbot died from consumption,
and his remains were lowered over the
side. Then the vessel fell Into a series
of calms, and for weeks and weeks
her sails flapped loosely on .the sticks,
leaving- the vessel to drift at will with
the sluggish current.. The vessel had
put Into Cape Town for repairs, and
It was thought that her stores would
last across tho Pacific, but the calms
exceeded anticipation, and when about
four months out the steward found
himself short of everything except
hardtack and water, and for two
months that combination formed the
dally diet.
The run from San Francisco to the
Columbia River was made In 19 days,
which Is not the slowest passage on
record, although the same distance was
covered a couple of years ago In ex
actly two days by the French bark
Jules Gommes.
FKOM CITY IX TtUrXS.
Steamer Kilburn Will Carry Dona
tions Free of Charge.
Among- the half hundred passengers
.who arrived here last night on the
steamer F. A. Kilburn from San Fran
cisco were a number of refugees who
rushed on board while the steamer was
at her wharf at the Bay City without
knowing where they would be taken to.
Little did they care. Just so they could
get away from the horrible sight of
death, devastation and ruins. The Kil
burn reached San Francisco Friday
momIn after the earthquake and she
had no sooner brushed up against the
xlde of the dock before a crowd of
refugees scrambled on board In wild
endeavor to escape from the terrible
sceaes. Captain Merriam allowed them
to remain on board and cared for them
until he sailed for Portland Tuesday
nlght. and then some of them were
allowed to come along.
Mrs. Merriam came up on the Kil
burn last night as a committee of one
from the Oakland churches to solicit
clothing for distribution among the
homeless, who have sought refuge in
the city across the bay. The clothing
can be sent to the steamer Kilburn
at Greenwich dock and It will be taken
to Oakland free of charge and turned
over :o the relief committee there.
Mrs. Merriam worked several days on
the relief committee at Oakland, but
begged to bo relieved from the work,
so pitiful were many cases that came
tocher attention.
"You 'have no idea of how some peo
ple suffered." said Mrs. Merriam last
night.. "I would have been driven In
sane had I continued on the commit
tee. Parents looklnir for thii- i-wi.
drcn and poor little children weeping
for their parents as If their little hearts
would break: It was simply awful: I
can't explain it. and I could stand it
no longer, so I was sent to Portland
to solicit clothing for the hundreds
and thousands of unfortunate and
destitute.
T know that the people of Portland
will respond nobly, for they have done
everything for the sufferers, and you
should hear how the people of San
Francisco praise the citizens up here.
Thty do not seem ablo to express jthelr
gratitude In words, and many break
Into tears when they learn of what Is
being done up here to assist them,
though terrible Is their plight-"
Captain Merriam brought the first
news of the destruction of San Fran
cisco to Eureka, which place was also
badly damaged by the earthquake.
Many went on the steamer to the Bay
City to learn the particulars, -which
were not obtainable at Eureka on
account of the wires being: disabled,
and they were taken there without
charge. The Kilburn made the run
to Sen Francisco In the record-breaking-
time of 'seventeen hours.

FOE PIANOS, PIANOLA
PIANOS AND OR0HES
T BELLES AT
ETLERS.
Nearly four-score beautiful high
grade instruments found new
homes last week. Some costly and
beautiful instruments selected by
prominent citizens.
It is estimated that it requires mora
time on the part of a salesman to sell a
piano In the ordinary store where the
"one-price" system is unknown than any
other article before the public. The time
consumed in many of the sales during the
past few weeks at Eilers Piano House is
truly remarkable. Particularly people who
have had the prices of our Instruments
and who were so fortunate as to win
credit certificates. As soon as they 'ask
the price of a Kimball, or a Chickcrlng.
or a Weber, or a Hobart M. Cable, or a.
Schumann, or a Pease, or any of the
other high-grade pianos carried by the
House of Eilers and see that the prices
are identically the same as they were
month's ago. It Is only a question of get
ting their name and address and shipping
the piano.
The great rush continues unabated. Last
week was another heavy one. and many
of the most prominent homes in the
Northwest now contain a beautiful in
strument bought at Eilers during the
past week.
