SPOKANE, Wash., May S. McCloskey's "Heavies" opened here with a win today. Mclntyre started things right off the reel with a home run after two strikes had been called. Carter, for the visitors, did masterly work in the box, keeping the hits well scattered. He looks like the best man in the position trotted out here so far. "Danny" Shea, of Portland, who played -with the Spokane Athletic Club's team last year, did v.e behind the bat for Ta coma. Joe Marshall's batting was the one particular feature from a Spokane point of view. He made four of the 10 hits secured by the bunchgrassers. Mc Carthy, at short, was not short of sensa tional in his work. The game went by the board in the third, when Shelton sin gled, Lynch followed suit, McCarthy flew out to third: Marshall, In trying to make a double play, sent the ball through Weeks on first, Shelton scoring and Lynch sroing to third. Lynch came In on a wild pitch. Then McCloskey walked. Flan nery singled, Thielman filled the bases by a paas. Carter sent up an easy fly to the catcher, and Shea struck out. After this it was a foregone conclusion who would win. Rain and heavy wind kept the attendance below 300. The score: sroKANE. R. H. PO. A. E. 0 0 3 0 0 Burke, r. f.

Result of the Labors of the Confer ence on Conciliation. NEW YORK, May 8. A mass meeting under the auspices of the committee on conciliation of the National Civic Feder ation was held tonight at Cooper Union to further the movement begun at the conference Tuesday to form a National board of arbitration. John Mitchell, the first' speaker, was greeted with applause and cheers. He said: "The Impression' may have gone forth that I stand for turmoil and war rather than peace; but, knowing the sufferings and horrors of turmoil and war, I stand for peace If it can be an honorable peace. I do not presume that this conference has solved the labor problem, but I believe that the plan agreed upon today "will do much to prevent strikes and lockouts. Nearly all of the strikes which have oc curred could have been avoided If the em ployers and representatives of labor or ganizations had conferred.' We have learned In the bituminous coal regions to get together in annual convention and talk out our differences. Instead of fight ing them out. Twelve men on each side met last year and in, 11 days fixed the wages of 200,000 men, and the year before the same number raised the wages of the miners to the extent of $20,000,000." Samuel Gompers, president of the Amer ican Federation of Labor, prefaced his remarks by stating that those who are braggarts, continually declaring war, are usually cowards in the actual struggle. "The strong man," said he, "does not boast of his power," because he knows that with power comes responsibilty. There was a time when an organization of labor was tabooed, and, the doors were shut In the face of the man who held a card in a union. That day is past. If we entertain a hope for ourselves, our chil dren or our country, we must organize. At one time the idea was held- that all wealth must be extinguished. There is no accounting for taste. Some have so far bidden good-bye to their reason as to applaud the Idea that wealth should be extinguished. We want justice, and noth ing else. Employers have found trades unions an element so costly that they want peace as well as we." "We want force," yelled a man who had furnished previous Interruptions, ana many in the audience cheered. Charles Sprague Smith came forward, and, raising his hand, called sharply for order. When he could make himself heard he said: "The Socialists have had their turn, and we will let them have it again, but now I ask for order. I ask this little group of Socialists to hold themselves In." Mr. GomDers struggled through a num ber of further interruptions, and finally got a hearing for his views as to arbi tration. "It will be a choice," said he, "between voluntary arbitration and compulsory ar bitration: where the jail will await those who will not work under a settlement ordered by the courts. Our experience with courts has not been such as to war rant us in placing our industrial interests in the hands of the gentleman who pre sides on the bench." At the meeting tonight the committee on conciliation and arbitration gave out its report. The report says that the pur pose of the organization is to enter into active service In the cause of peace and harmony in the industrial world for the purpose of preventing strikes and lock outs. The report advocates full and frank conferences between employers and work men, with the avowed purpose of reach ing an agreement as to the terms of em ployment. It further says the aim Is to establish and maintain a board or com mission, composed of the most competent persons available, selected from employ ers and employes of judgment, experience and reliability, whl6h shall be charged with carrying out the objects aimed at and shall also be expected to make known to workmen and their employers that their counsel and aid will be available, if desired, in securing that co-operation, mu tual understanding and agreement al ready Indicated as the general purpose of the National committee. The commit tee will select from its members an ex ecutive committee of 15 to direct the work of the organization. Strike at a Tube Mill. READING, Pa., May 8.

RATE DISCRIMINATION INVESTIGATION BY THE INDUSTRI AL COMMISSION. Western Goods Excluded From East era Markets Denver Complains of Unfairness. WASHINGTON, May 8. E. P. Wilson, secretary of the National Association of Manufacturers, and various other trade organizations of Cincinnati, testified be fore the Industrial Commission today con cerning railroad freight rates from the Ohio River southward. He said that Cin cinnati and other Western cities had suf fered since 1879 from discrimination on the part of railroads in the carrying of mer chandise and manufactured articles in the Interest of the Eastern seaboard. Mr. Wilson that the discrimination agalnBt Ohio River points is the result of an agreement which was entered Into almost a quarter of a century ago between the Atlantic Coast roads running south and the roads running north of the river. In accordance with that agreement, the Ohio River roads had advanced the price of manufactured articles, and had kept them so high as practically to exclude the man ufactured articles of the West from the market, notwithstanding the manufactur ing center In that time had moved rapidly westward. So great had this preference been that many Western manufacturers had found it profitable to establish ware houses in Atlantic seaboard cities for the distribution of their wares through the South, rather than to attempt to get them into that territory through the nat ural channels, which were the Western railroads running' southward. Often the rates, he said, from Cincinnati to Southern points were greater than from New York, notwithstanding the distance Is only about half so great. In the afternoon the commission listened to a statement from C. D. Griffith, of the Denver Chamber of Commerce, who read a document prepared by the chamber com plaining of freight-rate discrimination against the city on the part of the rail road companies. It was reported that this practice grows largely out of the fact that the Missouri River is made the base of Western rates. The opinion was expressed that this base should be moved westward to the longitude of Denver. The Chamber of Commerce also made complaint of in stability of railroad rates, and a plea was made for uniform and stable charges. Mr. Griffith said that the rate from New York and Chicago to Denver Is about the same as the rate from those same cities to San Francisco, and that the rate from Denver to San Francisco Is no lower than that from New York and Chicago to San Francisco. He also, said that, notwith standing the fact that Denver is 600 miles nearer Idaho and Montana than Missouri River points, Denver's freight rate to those states Is only one-fifth less; also, it was true that goods could be shipped to San Francisco and back to Utah at a lower freightage than the same goods could be shipped to Denver and then be shipped to Utah. THE DURKEE OLAIBI. Fraud Order May Be Issued Against It. WASHINGTON, May 8. The Treasury Department Is preparing a letter to the Postofflce Department asking that a fraud order be Issued against parties represent ing themselves as Interested in the Dur kee claim. This claim is an old one, dat ing back to Pacific Railroad days, Durkee at one time being Governor of Utah Ter ritory. The original amount was $64,000, 000. The case has been In the Court of Claims and more recently In the Supreme Court of the District of Columbia, and rejected. Yesterday a lawyer called on Secretary Gagfe with two witnesses and made a demand for $79,000,000. "I refuse to pay It," asserted Secretary Gage, "for the reason that I would be subject to impeachment and imprison ment." "Very well," returned the lawyer, "1 have witnesses to your refusal." It is stated at the Treasury that many persons have been Induced to buy stock in this "Durkee claim," and for that reason it is proposed to ask for the Issue of a fraud order. Wireless Telegfrnphy in the Navy. WASHINGTON, May 8. The board of naval officers headed by Captain Chad wlck, appointed to make a full investi gation and report on wireless telegraphy, has completed Its work and submitted Its report to Admiral Bradford, Chief of the Naval Bureau of Equiment, having charge of this subject. It had been ex pected that the inquiry would last through the Summer, and the Navy De partment has been somewhat surprised at the promptness with which the board has been able to reach its conclusions. Al though the findings are not made pub lic, it Is known that the board reports on the entire feasibility of the system and recommends that it be adopted and that the present system of using carrier pig eons for messages between naval points be abandoned. The New Slxteen-Inch Gnn. NEW YORK, May 8. Captain Wheeler of the Ordnance Bureau, has been ordered to Watervlelt, N.

May 8. A special to the Herald from Washington says: A mysteiV surrounds .the disappearance of the contract plans " of the protected cruiser St. Louis. Whether they have been lost or stolen will probably be de termined by an official inquiry. Rear Admlral Bowles, Chief "(Constructor, has advised the appointment of a board to Investigate.

Colu&bus was dismissed as a fool from court after court, but he pushed his suit against 'an incredulous and ridiculing world. He was rebuffed by Kings and scorned by Queens, but he never swerved, and abuse and poverty, threats, ridicule, storms, leaky vessels, mutiny of sailors, could not shake his mighty purpose. P. T.

Bobert Collyer broueht his bride to 1 Esl jffl mm I s2kbR m Headache may be called a woman's ailment. Some men suffer from it. But almost all -women have to endure its pain with each recurring month. This fact foints at once to the intimate relation etween the health of the delicate womanly organs, and the general health of the whole body. Dr. Pierce's Favor ite Prescription banishes headache by banishing its cause. It cures the dis eases which irritate the delicate womanly organs, fret the nerves and waste the strength. It increases the vitality and builds up the nervous system. "Favorite Prescription" contains no opium, cocaine or other narcotic. "I want to praiseyour medicine," writes Mrs. Sarah T. Burney, of Cresent City, Putnam Co., Fla. "I have been sick for twenty years, and. hare been almost in bed five years, and now I am able to -work all day. I have taken eight bottles of ' Favorite Prescription and four of 'Golden Medical Discovery' and one vial of ' Pellets.' I praise your medicine to all. I had the headache but it is gone. My throat is well end cough gone, and all my old troubles are better. I tried many other kinds of medicine and four doctors." MAKES WEAK WOMEN STRONG AND SICK WOMEN WELL. America In the steerage. He worked at the anvil in Pennsylvania for nine years, studying meanwhile. By dint of hard work and great determination he became one of our greatest preachers. Thomas Carlyle and Hugh Miller were masons. Jeremy Taylor was a barber. Andrew Johnson was a tailor. Cardinal "Wblsey, Defoe and Henry Klrke "White were butchers' sons. Faradaj'- was the son of a blacksmith, and his teacher, Humphrey Davy was an apprentice to an apothecary. Benjamin Disraeli sprang from a perse cuted race and pushed his way from hum ble life to the topmost round of political and social power. Scoffed, ridiculed, re buffed, hissed from the House of Com mons, he simply said: "The time will come when you shall hear me." The time did come, and the boy "with no chance" swayed the scepter of England as Prime Minister for a quarter of century. Water Pails for KIre Protection. Cassler's Magazine. After years of experience the fact still holds good that open palls and buckets, filled with water, have not yet been sur passed In efficiency as "first aids" In fire fighting, and that more fires are annually put out by such palls and buckets than by all other appliances put together. One trouble with water pails for fire protection in manufactuilng establishments always has been that, while they might be pro vided abundantly enough In places where they were likely to be of service, the water was apt to be wanting at a critical time, either because of evaporation, or its use by some borrower, and failure to replenish the supply. It seems worth while, therefore, to give the following par ticulars of the arrangement adopted by the superintendent of a certain large mill with the. object of overcoming this diffi culty. The hooks from which the pails were suspended were fitted up with pieces of spring bteel strong enough to lift the pail when nearly empty, but not suffi ciently so to lift a full pall. Just over each spring, in such a position as to be out of the way of the handle of the pall, was set a metal point, connected with a wire from an open circuit electric bat tery. So long as the palls were full, their weight, when hung on their hooks, kept the springs down, but as soon as one was removed, or lost a considerable portion of its contents by evaporation or otherwise, the spring on its hook would rise, come in contact with the metal point, thus close the battery circuit, and ring a bell In the manager's office, at the same time showing on an annunciator where the trouble was. As the bell con tinued to ring until the weight of the delinquent pail was restored, it was im possible to disregard the summons, and no further reason was found in that es tablishment to complain of the condition of the fire buckets. Kleptomaniacs In Hotels. Chambers's Journal. I was much struck with the habits of kleptomania common to some of the pre sumably rich visitors, who engaged expen sive suits of rooms, and even paid their bills. After the departure of these guests the bed would be found minus the satin or silk coverlet, while towels and pillow slips were also very often removed. On one occasion a gentleman engaged a double room for one night only, and the following morning the maid, knowing of his departure, made up the bed with fresh linen for the next occupant. However, the visitor had evidently returned to his room after breakfast, deliberately taken the slips off the pillows and packed them with his luggage, for on entering the room shortly afterward I found the bed made up, but no slips. I happened to know that the maid had certainly put fresh ones on when she made up the bed. What that gentleman could want with those two pillow-slips is difficult to understand. Of course, candles, matches and soap (sup plied gratis) are commonly removed, and even the sheets on the bed are not spared. Once a large double sheet was cut Into pieces, the visitor evidently re quiring sufficient linen for a petticoat or the lining of a skirt, judging from the shape of the pieces left The hotel sheet was no doubt the nearest thing available, so It was taken to save time and trouble, and the pieces left were found carefully rolled up and thrown Into a cupboard out side the room, which was only used by the maids, and strictly private. Needless to say, before the remains of the sheets were found the visitors had departed, leaving no address.

DYSPEPSIA CURE NOW S THE PROMISE OF AH Chronic Invalids Should Take Advantage of Favorable Climatic Conditions. There Is No Impropriety In Collins: attention to the fact that the Spring and Summer months afford the beat time for the treatment of Catarrh. It has been seen, even during the In clement and unfriendly influences of the severe and the changeable weather, how I the Copeland treatment, even against the influence of the climate and weather, reaches and cures common Catarrh and Catarrh of the Throat and Catarrh of the Vocal Cords, Deafness. Bronchial Catarrh and Catarrh of the Lungs. Nature Lends Her Aid. From now on these wonderful tests will be made even under more favorable in fluences, and all sufferers from. Catarrhal or Bronchial Diflicultles, from diseases of the Ear, the Throat, the Bronchial Tubes or Lungs should recognize this and avail themselves of the knowledge. In the Spring and Summer Nature lends her aid to the work of the physician, the causes that produce Catarrhal conditions are less active, liability to cold is re duced. One month of Spring and Summer treat ment Is worth two months of the most careful Winter treatment, and if all who suffer from Catarrh were wise enough to devote a little of the Summer to treat ment, there would soon be few cases of Catarrh to treat; cases of Deafness would become rare, head noises a curiosity, ana chronic coughs and Consumption would be reduced to a minimum. CATARRH, BRONCHITIS AND STOMACH TROUBLE PERMANENTLY CURED Mr. I. E. McHolland, residing at G7S East Everett street, Portland. Mr. Mc Holland was engaged for many years in fruitgrowing at Gravel Hill. "I was trou bled with catarrh all my life; that Is, with a stopping-up of the head, filling up of the throat, etc., but it was not until about six years ago that the dis ease became constitutional. From that time on it was A Steady Decline, and when I commenced treatment at the Copeland Institute my health seemed hopelessly shattered. "The disease had extended Itself until the membranes of the entire respiratory tract, as well as of the stomach, were Involved. The Inflammation extended to the bronchial tubes, causing soreness and distressed feeling all through the chest, and giving rise to A Violent and Racking: Cough. "My stomach gave out. It became so weak and sensitive that at tlme even the sight of food would sicken me. I could eat nothing whatever without un dergoing all the Tortures of Indigestion. "My condition grew worse from week to week. Night sweats set in and I became too weak to look properly after my af fairs, and often thought I must give up the struggle. "I was falling so rapidly that It did not seem possible I ever could be cured. My daughter and other members of the fam ily had been cured by the Copeland physi cians, and I felt convinced if any one could help me they could. I began treat ment and was not disappointed. At the end of my course I was once more A Well Man. "The treatment cost me only $5 a month, which Included all medicines, but It cured me perfectly and permanently." REJOICES IN GOOD HEALTH. CURED BY HOME TREATMENT. Miss S. F. Troutman, Shedd, Iilnn County, Or.: I suppose I should have written you sooner, but I felt so well that I did not think it necessary. When I wrote for your symptom blank I was miserable indeed. I was suffering from all the annoying symptoms of catarrhal trouble. I had no strength or energy and could not eat or sleep. My nervous sys tem seemed completely shattered. Language can not express the gratitude I feel for all you have done for me. I feel that you have almost raised me from the grave. I recommend and praise you to all my suffering friends, but feel it my duty to give you this short recommenda tion of what your wonderful treatment has done for me. It Is not only a duty I owe to you, but a duty I owe to those suffering as I was. EN MADE NEW Troubles, Lost Manhood, Vari cocele and Associated Diseases of the Pelvic Region Permanently Cured by Br. Kessler The reasons why Dr. Kessler Is so suc cessful in the permanent cure of the above chronic diseases are simple and easy of comprehension, yet extremely Important. First, let it be said that to cure these lingering diseases requires many years' experience. By treating hundreds of such diseases every year the specialist becomes Intimately acquainted with their every phase and condition, which en ables him to know at once just what form of treatment Is re quired to effect a speedy relief and a permanent cure. A spe-. ciallsfs ability to cure deep seated diseases Is In proportion to his years of experience. For 25 years Dr. Kessler has made a specialty of curing chronic disorders of the nerves, blood, kidneys and bladder and weaknesses of the urinary canal. Simple diseases, such as ma laria, can easily be cured by the family physician. Chronic diseases, such as kidney trouble, or vital weakness of the nervous system and of the organs caused by violation of the laws of health, require nothing short of the services of a specialist experienced in such diseases. And, remember, a specialist Is one who devotes his entire time and study to the treatment of CHRONIC and private dis eases, and who has had years of experience. IN A WORLD WHERE "CLEANLINESS IS NEXT TO GODLINESS" NO PRAISE IS TOO GREAT FOR SAPOLIO THE TIM SPRING AND SUMMER ADVISED BY FRIENDS TO TAKE THE COPELAND TREATMENT, NOW HE IS CURED Mr. J. P. Walker, Sauvle's Island, Multnomah County, Or., a well-known farmer, residing In that section, for 20 years:, I would Most Heartily Recommend all sufferers from chronic disease to con sult the Copeland doctors. When I com menced treatment I was In a most wretch ed state of health. My sickness was brought on by ex posure and overwork, resulting in a se rious catarrhal trouble of the- respirator' organs and digestive tract. My head wr always stopped up. and phlegm dropplr Mr. J. P. Walker, Sauvle's Island, Multnomah County, Or. from the head caused me to hawk and spit constantly Colds, from which I was seldom free, aggravated all my symptom.-? and made life miserable. I had ringing and buzzing noises in the head and my hearing was dull, all sounds seeming muffled. The Worst Feature of the disease, however, was its effects upon the stomach and bowels. My stom ach grew gradually weaker until I could eat nothing at all without suffering ter ribly. Even when the stomach was empty there was a soreness, extending clear across the body, and a feeling of dead weight In the stomach. After eat ing there was bloating, belching and gen eral distress, with a gurgling and gas in the bowels. I had lost 30 pounds and was good for nothing. I was tired and drowsy all the time and without any life or ambition, I took both patent medicines and medi cine prescribed by physicians, but nothing did me any good. The Copeland treat ment was very Highly Recommended by Friends. and I placed myself under the care of these doctors. Now I can add my praise to theirs, for I am again a well man. CONSULTATION FREE.
