NO PLAYERS INJURED
OREGON WASHINGTON HAS , RE
MARKABLE FEATURE
"X
PORTLAND, Ore., Nov. 17c-One
of the most remarkable features of
the Oregon-Washington game staged
here Saturday was the fact that
there was but one substitution, that
of Cornell for Beckett, early in the
first quarter Cornell was to have been
injected into the game at a later per
iod, but Coach Bezdek thought he
saw a chance to get the jump on
Washington, and sent in his regular
quarter.
Considering the fact that Miller,
the big Washington left half. Parsons
and Cornell, of Oregon, wero all suf
fering from eailier injuries, the fact
that no changes were mar!e is conr
sidered remarkable.
As far as D bie' is concerned, he
had no reaso i to make a change, as
he had his best :ien in the game, and
the score was fo dose until nar The
end of the game that he didn't Sine
' take a chance -vifh any of !:?3 suis.
Oregon was at out in tho Qr'.rve boat.
Naturall, Ovjgon was the under dog,
and up until the fourth quarter, with
the score tied, it was placed cn the
defensive the greater part of the
lime. Deztles? l oull h ive rolii'.d no
one and strengthened h tf-rim. No
one knew this "fetter tl'Kn he
MAGNATE IS SILENT
As expected, there were announce
ments of no deals between Cleave
land and Portland at the meeting at
Columbus which ended Thursday. In
fact, but two were pulled off at tne
meeting by Coast Leaguers which
have broken into print and Hap Ho
gan gets Chelette, a Western League
pitcher, and Bill Leard, Oakland sec
ond baseman for two years.
What Portland players will be seiit
to Cleveland is not known. Neither
will they be until Walter McCredie
returns to Portland, in all probability.
FORECAST SAYS RAIN
HOWEVER, THE GAME WILL BE
PLAYED REGARDLESS
PORTLAND, Ore , Nov. 17. Al
though there is every indication of
rain tomorrow, the grounds at Re
creation Park are in good condition
as yet and President McCredie an
nounced this morning that unless
there, was an unusually heavy rain
fall tonight or tomorrow morning,
the game would surely be played.
Naturally,, on a wet diamond, the
major league -tars will not take the
chances they would on a dry field,
but the majority of fans are anxious
to get a glimpse of the big league
stars and do not expect them to put
up a wonderful exhibition in the field
and at bat.
One of the feature stunts which the
players have been pulling before the
game is in taking fielding practice
without a ball. They go through all
of the stunts which are usually per
formed, but no flying pellet is seen.
It is said to be something way out of
the ordinary in baseball.
It has definitely been decided that
Schalk, Speaker, Hal Chase, Russell
and Faber will leave the White Sox
at Seattle and not make the rest of
the tour, while the Giants will leave
Fromme, Snodgrass and Tesreau be
hind, while Mathewson and Meyers
left the team at San Francisco.
The probable lineup of the teams
will be as follows:
New York Snodgrass, cf.; Magee,
If; Lobert, 3b.; Doyle, '2b.; Merkle,
3b. ; Doolan, s.; Donlin or Thorpe, rf.;
wingo, c,
Chicago Weaver, s.; Rath, 2b.;
Speaker, cf.; Crawford, rf.; Chase, lb;
Schaeffer, 2b.; Evans, If.; Schalk, c.

M YSTERIOUS ; WOMAN M YSTIFIESHUNDREDS.
mte -'v:V til
The world loves mystery, and plen
ty of mystery surrounds Mme Pearl
Tangley, the woman "Who" tells
things" and who is telling things at
the Bell Theatre this week. Judging
from her performance last - evening
which was witnessed by hundreds, it
is safe to say that should she have
lived years ago, when witchcraft was
in effect, her life would have been
In danger. Her performance Is full of
that occult lore that had been handed
down from remote ages. Last even
ing she performed feats almost in
creditable. Blindoflded, seated in
center of stage she called numbers
that one in the audience had written,
without even seeing the writings, the
gentleman or the blackboard. She
called dozens of names of people in
the audience and told them "just
what they wanted to know. Some
asked about business, others about
love, one woman asked "Is my hus
band true?" Pearl told her a plenty.
Tonight, possibly, she will give a
statement regarding a mysterious
case that has mystified the city of
micials for years. It was announced
last evening that she would hold a
special meeting for ladies only Friday
at 2:30 and no men would be allowed.
Poor man, how he will suffer! We
wager that the ladies will the find out
many little "personal" things about
their hubbys.

My Dear Sir "Panama and the Ca

anticipation of visiting the Canal this
Winter after the water has been turn

'joy forever." The mechanical execu

made a great contribution to Panama
literature. It should be m the hands
of everybody, and especially those who
are not able to Visit the Isthmus in
person. After reading your splendid
descriptions and looking at the fine
illustrations no one can fail to have a
complete and accurate knowledge of
every subject concerning the Isthmus
and the Canal of any possible interest.
Yours very truly,
JNO. W. KERN.
FROM A LEADING PROGRESSIVE SENATOR. August 13, 1913
Dear Abbot I am fascinated with your book, as I was with the Isthmus itself.
This spot, where the nations meet, is of rapidly increasing interest. It will be a pleas
ure resort as well as a commercial center. It is fortunate that one so well equipped
as yourself has written just at this time the story of this interesting place. You have
caught its spirit, its romance md beauty. The wealth of pictures adds greatly to the
Interest of your vivid descriptions. Very truly yours, MILES POINDEXTER.

LEADER IN THE HOUSE.
My Dear Mr. Abbot The book is
a graphic presentation of the facts
concerning this, greatest of all mod
ern contributions to the world's pro
gress and the amity of nations. Your

prized both by those who have visited
the Canal Zone and those who have
that great pleasure yet in view. Sin
cerely yours,
O. W. UNDERWOOD.
FROM MEMBER OF SENATE COMMITTEE ON INTERSTATE COMMERRCE
Dear Mr. Abbot I am greatly pleased with your "Panama and the Canal in Picture
and Prose." It is the most interesting and attractive work on Panama I have ever
seen. It contains the complete story from Columbus to the present, and I have no
doubt it will be readily recognized as the most useful compilation of facts relating to
our Canal interests in Panama now published. Its wealth of illustrations as well as
its attractive presentation of related facts makes it a very valuable addition to my
library.

Mr. Abbot's work on "Panama and the Canal" is the most interesting and valuable publication relative to . the
Isthmian Canal that has ever come to my notice. Its careful preparation is especially evidenced by its complete
ness of detail, involving infinite pains in research. The story is an inspiring one, and the narrative is related in a
most pleasing style. Both as a literary and historical production of great value, and as a model of typographic art,
its place in any library .ought to be assured. - . WILLIAM J. STONE.

FROM AN ILLINOIS CONGRESSMAN.
August 21, 1913.
My - Dear Mr. Abbot I am delighted with your book,
"Panama and the Canal in Picture and Prose." It is the
most valuable publication on Panama yet issued. You
have thoroughly popularized the entire matter. I think I
have read everything published on the subject of Panama
and the Canal, and in my study of the subjects connected
with the Canal I have spent many days on the Isthmus of
Panama. Your book appears at a most opportune time. I
know of no information of real value on the subject which
is not contained in your book. You have rendered a great
public service. The book is written in a charming man
ner, and you present the intensely interesting romantic
history connected with that part of the world as no one
else has yet been able to do. I know of no other book of
travel appearing in recent years so interesting and valu
able as this. Very truly yours, ;

My Dear Mr. Abbot I shall read "Panama and the

pleasure, but the pleasure will be largely enhanced
by the fact that as a member of the Committee on

1911, and the half-tone cuts in the volume recall more
vividly than anything else the scenes I visited.

"My Dear Mr. Abbot I desire to congratulate you most
heartily on your latest book, "Panama and the Canal in
Picture and Prose." .
A book of this kind is usually regarded as a picture
book, and surely this one is most beautifully illustrated.
But your book could be regarded as a picture book if one
were to xegard it from its letter press alone.. I found it
packed with information about the world's most wonder
ful canal, about the people there and the tropical condi
tions and about the ruins and the history that tell of
Aztec and Toltec days, and the later amazing adventures
of Balboa, Cortez and their handful of Spanish companions,
who mixed their private business of buccaneering with
an authorized business of exploring. I think the style in
which you have written is most clear and flowing, and
altogether this book is by far the best presentment of this
much-talked-of subject that it has been my good fortune
to find. Sincerely yours, HENRY GEORGE, JR.
