prise Oeurge Wiceld and his bride

their horns, the members of the party
indulged in a wholesale scramble for
the money. Women and children fought
for the coins.

SPORTING NEWS.
Un Tuesday at Portland btg-iu tive
crucial series of tl? baseball season
of lwoU, when the local team began
a five weeks ' session ou the home
-gruunds. Oakland was the opposing
faction. Whether the Beavers have a
chance to win the pennant will now
be decided. They were nearly 60 points
behind Ios Angeles, the leaders, with
San Franeisro very close up. During
this series Portland will meet Lo An
geles, and Oakland, while San Fran
cisco, the bane uf the M.-Credie clique,
comes north but once. After the inaug
ural series with Ookiand,( Portland
gets l.us Angeles for a two weeks '
scries, w -h ieb w ill include something
like 17 games in day. Labor day
is the cause of the fXtension, for. com
ing a it d.es on a Monday, the league
has arranged for continuous playing by
the visitors, instead of breaking up
the second week by a journey to the
soul If! and in midweek.

fifths of a second off the mark mail
by Roseheu, carrying 147 pounds, at

Nimbus M'rformance was not as good
as that of Rosebeu, for he had consider
able weight off.
Tommy Burns, the champion heavy
weight pugilist, again defeated "Rill"
Squires, the Australian, this tune at
Sydney, knocking him out in the 1.1th

nessed by 2Vhi -ople, among them
hundreds of sailors from the American
battleships then in the harbor.
,Iim Jeffries today denied that there
is any danger of the Papke -Ketchell
fight, scheduled at Los Angeles for
l.alntr day, being called off. He said
the rumors that the match was "up
in tfie air" were started by " sore
heads. '
