Graduated single tax is defeated in
this county, the incomplete returns
giving 846 tor the bill and 2221 against

ing bill will lose in this county by

vote was given to the bill, prohibiting
the use of streets and parks for pub
lic discussion, except by permission
oi' the mayor.
The two appropriation bills for the
University of Oregon, which appeared
on the ballot under the referendum,
lost in Clackamas by more than 4 to
1, and the county single tax measure
is beaten, the first returns giving 997
votes for the measure and 1858
against it.

red from selling. John Archer, phy
sician in ordinary to Charles II.. kept

Loudon and sold tobacco at all of

purities the air from infectious malig
nancy by its fragrance, sweetens the
breath, strengthens the brain and
memory and revives the sight to ad
miration." lie charged 2 shillings an
ounce for his tobacco, which was sup
posed to possess special virtues "to be
perceived after taking one pipe." Lon

any harder work anywhere than get
ting a dollar out of you?" Harper's
Weekly.
DEMAND FOR HOPS
TO BE MUCH BETTER
The indications are for an early re
sumption of trade in the hop market.
For the past week the hop market
has been somewhat dull. The hops
that are held by the growers wih
probably command about the same
prices as those which were sold sev
eral weeks ago. The prices
paid for hops the past few days a
from 18 to 19 cents, tbse prices be
ing for the best hops. Many of the
growers are looking for even hightr
prices than these between now and
the end of the year. Some of tun
Eastern dealers are sending West for
their hops, but these dealers are try
ing to keep prices down. It is ex
pected that there wil be a consider
able amount of sales in November.

Ty Cobb just simply murdered the

on the diamond today. Cobb didn't

restrict his energies to batting alone,
for in base stealing and run getting
Tyrus was right around the leaders.
Joseph Wood of Boston led the pitch,
ers in the American league with an
average of .827.
It is peculiar that the pennant win
ning Giants and Red Sox were not the
best hitting and fielding-clubs in theit
leagues. The Pirates carried off these
honors in the National, while the Ath
letics did the same thing in the junior
organization.
In the National league Zimmerman
of the Cubs led the league with a
grand average of .363. Larry Doyle
was also a long distance batter, with
ten circuit clouts to his credit.
The National league had thirty-two
hitting over .300. the Giants supplying
four of that number. The Pittsburgh
club carried off the batting honors
with ten men hitting over .300.
The Pirates ranked first in club bat
ting. Giants second and Chicago third,
while the Cincinnati Reds brought up
the rear.
Zimmerman was the slugger in chief,
while O. Wilson was second, Wagner
third. Cravath fourth and Larry Doyle
fifth.
Pittsburgh was the best fielding club,
with an average of .971. Fielding was
the main weakness of the Giants
throughout the season, for the best the
New Yorkers could do was to land in
next to last place with an average of
.954.
It was on the bases that McGraw's
men stood out brilliantly, for of the ten
leading base stealers the Giants were
responsible for five Merkle. Murray.
Doyle. Snodgrass and Herzog.
Hendrix of Pittsburgh was thf
league's star pitcher, with .727. "Big
Jeff" Tesreau closely pressed him foi
the title with .720.
The National league had more Swat
Milligans than its rival, for only twen
ty -eight players hit over .300 per cent in
the American league against thirty-twc
for the National.
Cobb and Jackson were tied for ttu
greatest number of hits. Each made
227. although Jackson played in four
teen more games than the Detroit won
der "Home Run" Baker finished the
yenr with ."."2 per cent. He pulled off
ten cleanup wallops during the year.
The Athletics led In fielding with .9.""
per cent, and the lowly New Yorkers
were tt;i nked with .938.
The speedy Milan topped Cobb in
base stealing. Milan pilfered eighty
six. while Cobb annexed sixty.
Eddie Collins was the best run get
ter and was followed by Speaker. Cobb
Jackson and Baker, all players of more
or less ability.
The Athletics did the best club bat
ting for 2S2 per cent. The St. Louis
Browns finished in last place with a
total of .2-17 per cent.
Jackson was the heavy slugger, clout
ing for lOi extra bases.
The hero of the world's series was
Jake Stahl. manager of the Bostons.
Stahl played consistently good ball a!"

It seems doubtful if there Is any
thing more crooked than the following
title of a pamphlet published in 1703:
"The Deformity of Sin Cured: a Ser
mon Preached nt St. Michael's. Crook
ed Lane. Before the Prince of Orange,
by the Kev. J. Crookshanks." The
pamphlet was sold by Matthew Den
ton at the Crooked Billet, near Cripple
gate. The words of the text are.
"Every crooked path shall be made
straight." and the prince before whom
it was read was deformed.
Dr. Jowett's Discovery.
Dr. Sophia .lex-Blake, whose persist

many old women are inside!" Her tire
less eloquence was once the object of a

Lovely, but Unwashed.
In former times even highborn la
dies and gentlemen seem not to have
troubled even to wash their hands
with any frequency. Even the. fair
and witty Margaret of Navarre on one
occasion avowed her neglect of ele
mentary cleanliness in the frankest
way. "Look at these lovely hands of
mine." said she to one of her courtiers.
"They have not been washed for eight
days, yet I'll wager they outshine
yours." In an old French manual of
etiquette. "Loix de la Galanterie." pub
lished in 1640. the complete dandy is
advised to "take trouble to wash his
hands every day and his face almost
as often."
An Enterprising Bcirristsr.
An English barrister was once en
gaged in a nautical case, in which it
appeared that a vessel had been ex
posed to a very severe gale of wind
aud had been thrown upon her beam
ends. The barrister, ignorant of nau
tical matters, asked a seaman who
was in the witness box how it was
they did not lower the topmast, upon
which the witness said, with a sneer,
"If you kuew as much of the sea as I
do you would know that this is not a
very easy matter." This incident led
the counsel to turn his attention to the
subject, and he Invented an apparatus
for lowering topmasts, for which he
obtained a patent aud realized thereby
upward of $100,000 by his invention.
