HENDERSON HOLDS
OAKLAND SCORELESS
PORTLAND, Aug. .(Special).
Jlenny Henderson ' and Pecklnpaugh
proved the undoing of tho Oaks In tho
opening gsmo of tho Heavers' return
to tho homo park today, and the lone
run scored through Chester Chad
bourne's daring base-running In the
first Inning brought homo tho honor
to Portland, 1 to 0.
Wolverton trotted out hia best bet
In tho pitching line, Harry Ablea, and
the big southpaw pitched a fine game,
but ho had bad luck In passing Chad
bourne aa first man up for Portland.
That worthy stole third In the most
daring fashion after Bheeban had ad
vanced him on a sacrifice, and Barry
had filed out to Zacher.
' Then "Roaring Hill' Rappa kissed
one for a ripping single past Wolver
ton and Chadbourno tallied the only
run of an exciting afternoon of base

POPE DEPRESSED BY
SERIOUS ILLNESS
ROME, -Aug . (Special). Vatl
ran Information today as to tho Pone's
condition is only tho diplomatic state
ment thnt his holiness naa snown no
noticeable Improvement, and despite
efforts to minimize tho serlonsness of
his condition. It la well known, that
the prlncesa of the church are deeply
apprehensive.
It was authoritatively learneJ to
day that the Pontiff haa had more
Minting spells than have been an
nounced to tho public, and that his
spirits hsve been greatly affected by
his condition. He appeara greatly de
pressed and seldom smiles. Fears of
a fntul termination of his Illness are
growing every hour. ,

According to 'Kason, cabbage

and keep the head cool.
"Homo years ago while 1 was

"I kept my bead cool that day

FEAR OF COBB HELPS TEAM.
Opponents Beeemo Nerveue When He
Oats Into Action.
Take Ty Cobb from tho Detroit team
and It wonld have a bard time finish
ing In tbo first division, and this la not
eanWUna; In ihm L..t ,i ll. tlirr
members of that very good ball team.
But where In tbo history of baseball
baa there ever been a ball player to
compare with Cobb? There have been
others to show flashes, . others who
were brilliant In spots, but Cobb Is the
only one who la sensational every dsy.
and does more to win ball games for
his loam than any three other Indi
viduals on It. You may despise biin
liecause he Is alwaya making tbo other
fellows look foolish; you may charge
him with being Inflated over his suc
cess or what not, but you can't get
roond tho fact that his equal on the
ball field haa never b-n seen.
There have been other ball players,
there are some todsy, but compare
them, dsy In and day oat. with Cobb,
and they are not In the aamo class.
What la most reniarksblo about the
lad from (leorgla lo bis untiring ag
gressiveness. There Is never an Idle
TY on bb, prraorra wondkhfoi, oct
niLDiN. moment In a ball game for Cobb. . He
does not stop to rest on hie. laurels
nor stow down because a itiiuela won
or lost, but he Is alwaya la the game
from head to foot.
Cobb Is supposed to be playing in the
glicst class of baseball, and jet It Is
but seldom that he doea not show his
superiority over bit oppoueuts. - And
they realise bis prwes, too, for no
sooner Is he on t-'-lisses than the op
position Is on a t " "'in. He no soouer
faces a P'ti her i . hat worthy con
cludes thnt hp-T... JT.'ng a master at
the art.- Cobb helps hU bull team aa
much by the fear that , be creates
among the opposing team aa he doea
by hla actnsi nensatlonul performance.

It la because Queen Mary is never

amart women of today are wearing
them. Her majesty haa a really fine
collection of theMo ornamenta. some of
which hre of great historic Interest
Many flue palra were bequeathed to
the queen by her late mother. Mary,
duchess of Teck. who also had a gresr
penchant for earrings. For day wear
tho queen usually favors abort ear
rings, generally of slngle-stoneo. wblcn
rest on the ear. but In the evening she
sdopts the picturesque long shape. Her
ears are pierced In old fashioned style,
and abe will have nothing to do with
the screw fastenings which are almost

PLANNED TRUST JUGGLE
TO CREATE S50.000.000.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 8. (Special).
With George W. PerklnB, former
chairman of the finance committee of
tho United States Steel Corporation
on the stand, Chairman Stanley of the
House Steel Trust Investigating Com
mitter today produced a copy of the
minutes of the ateel corporatlon'a ex
ecutive committee ahowlng that in
March, 1902, Perkins proposed a plan
to raise $50,000,000 without coating
the corporation a rent.
This financial achievement waa to
have been attained by taking up about
40 per cent of the preferred stock, or
about l200.OQO.ooo. coating iM.noo,-
000 a year In dividends at 7 per cent
and to Issue Instesd 1250,000,000 of
second mortgage 5 per cent bonds.
Thla would have added $50,000,000 In
new money and would have resulted
in a saving to the corporation of f
600.000 a year.
There was nothing In the minutes
to Indicate that the plan had been car
ried through, although It apparently
metvwlth the approval of those pres
ent at the meeting. -
Perklna and the committee became
deadlocked over ' the insistence of
Chairman Stanley, of the committee,
that tho witnesa should answer ques
tions relating to his participations In
rnmpalgn contributions.
