THE MORNING. OREGONI AN,' SATURDAY. JUNE 8, 1901. l - if . ONE HOME RUN SAVED IT TACOMA JUST ESCAPED A SECOND SHUT-OUT. Both Team Put Up First-Class Ball, WitU CIrcn Feature That Pleased the Fan. Tacoma narrowly escaped another s"hut. out yesterday afternoon. McCloskey's dudes went out In almost uniform one-two-three order before the fast fielding and deceptive curve of the s'ow-bait pitcher. Mr. Salisbury. It was Pitcher Ad ams, in the eighth Inning, who saved Ta coma from the prospective disaster, when almost every man on the nine had given up hope and McCloskey himself was won dering what he would tell the Tacoma Jans when he returned to the Puget Sound city. "With two men out, Adams saw one coming across the plate that suited him, He swung on It and the ball went sailing over the right field fence for a tremen dously long drive and a home run, the first In the league series on the Portland grounds. When Zearfoss took first on the error of Deit.el, it looked like a rally for Tacoma, but McCarthy, the next man up, went out with an easy grounder to first. The white-stockinged "Webfoot nine did not send a runner over the plate until the sixth inning, when Vigneux started out by v drawing a pats to first from the wary southpaw, Adams. When he got there he ran like a scared greyhound to second, for Anderson tapped the ball sharply to short. McCarthy dived for the ball at full speed, got It. and then tapped the bag at precisely the same moment that Vigneux reached the base. McDer mott called him safe, and McCloskey went out to talk it over. Brown then touched the ball for a grounder to short, retiring Anderson at second. Vigneux went to third. Brown went down to sec ond on the first ball, and on the wild throw back to the home plate Vigneux scored. Brown was thrown out at the .plate on attempting to score on Tinker's grounder to third. Zearfoss caught Tinker napping at first. The second run was earned, if there aVat vac nna Tha tQU.Anilarii tt IVia. font- ting list were responsible for bringing It j in. Mahaffey knocked out a clean two bagger over Lynch's head, and then Pitcher Salisbury brought In the run by a single to right. Salisbury was ad vanced to second by Muller's hit, and took third on a passed ball. He died there on Vigneux" pop to center. One of the features of the game was the bombardment of the Tacoma outfielders by a bunch of unregenerate youngsters that swarmed the top of the oufleld fences. One youngster gave the others the tip, and suddenly there came In the direction of the red stockings a swarm of clods and sticks. The game was stopped. Lynch, Flannery and Meneffee w ere up In arms In a minute. Loading up with similar weapons, they charged the fence, firing their weapons with the ac curacy and speed of gatllng guns. Up the fence they went like the rough riders at San Juan Hill, and routed the enemy completely. They were then called back to resume the game by McDermott, and a solitary policeman preserved order on the fence. The crowd had a chance to yell In the sixth and to make the popular Tinker doff his cap at the stand. Zearfoss rapped out a drive over third that looked as much like a hit as Adams' home-run fly. But the fans reckoned without Tinker. He rose Into the air like a shot out of a gun, and with one hand stretched up dragged down the swift-speeding ball. Tinker. Delsel and Mahaffey also did great team work in the first. McCarthy had taken first on a base on balls, when 3lcljntyx.tgpped out the ball to Tinker. jXcltatgrejjwasjtbrown out at first, and Ma- 5haffeyJretUTBd2lhe ball to Delsel at third 4itJjBTiSJ5UcJr McCarthy, who had at- -IUsDlreMcDermott ruled the game with -JhTcustomary rod of iron. McCloskey J&?ent out on the field severtl times to talk th!ngs over but no satisfaction did he get. Manager Jack Grim did the same thing when Brown was hit by a pitched ball. All he got for his pains was an or der to move off the field. Tinker was or dered to the bench at the same time on penalty of a $5 fine. McCarthy was fined 55 for objecting to a close decision which called Vigneux safe at second. The game moved off quickly, and all the outfielders distinguished themselves by dragging down high sky-scrapers. Following Is the score: PORTLAND. AB. R. H. PO. A. E. Muller.

REGATTA ON THE CLYDE SYBARITA AND NEVADA WERE THE WINNING YACHTS. Shamrock I Defeated In the Ninety- Foot Clnss Course Wn a Dls- tnnce of Fifty allien. ROTHESAY. Firth of Clyde. June 7. The Glasgow exhibition regatta opened today. The yachts started In a brisk northwest breeze over a course In the form of a square, lying between the Is land of Bu'.e and Ayrshire, giving a fair trial on all points of sailing. Twice around the course and a "distance" to Largs and back made a total of 50 miles sailed. The race was divided into two classes. both having special points of Interest to Americans. In the first division Sham- Some PortUndcrs Devoted rock I was pitted against the best single stickers in British waters. She was heav ily handicapped under the British racing rules, giving the Meteor 45 minutes 39 seconds, the Sybarita 42 minutes 34 sec onds, and the Karlad 47 minutes 4 seconds. Interest In the second race centered In Charles F. Herreschoff, Jr.'s, new cutter Nevada. She was designed with little re gard for the restrictions of the British racing rules, and if successful will either set the fashion for British" designing br force the racing association to modify the measurement rules materially Her com petitors. Lais, Carina .and Tutty, were fairly representative of the work of the British builders two seasons ago. The four big yachts were sent off with full light-weather canvas to a capital start. Karlad. Meteor and Sybarita were beam and beam, with Shamrock I half a length astern. They had an easy five mile reach to the first mark; when the former cup challenger turned the first mark she led the Meteor and the Karlad by half a minute, and the Sybarita py l minute and 24 seconds. When the next ie& was reached Shamrock I led Sybarita by 1 minute 44 seconds, Meteor by 4 min utes, and Karlad by over 10 minutes. The wind then softened and the pace slack ened. On the last leg of the first round Sham rock I showed well, and she passed the mark 9 minutes 50 seconds before Sybari ta, which was 2 minutes 3S seconds ahead of Meteor. On the second leg of the second round, Shamrock I was hopelessly becalmed off Cumbrae Island, and all three of her rivals passed her there. Sybarlta's time at the finish was 7 hours 14 minutes 34 seconds. She won both prizes, time and first to finish. Others were far astern. Shamrock's time was 7 hours. 47 minutes, 36 eeconds. In the other class Nevada was well placed at the start, and in the softening wind ran ahead and passed the second mark 1 minute 30 seconds ahead of Carina, 2 minutes ahead of Tutty and nearly 3 minutes ahead of Lais. After having sailed half of the first round In good style, Nevada was passed by Tutty and Carina and was third to finish the round, 9 minutes 5 seconds after Tutty. Nevada won the race for 65-footers, cov ering the course In 9 hours 25 minutes and 17 seconds. None of her competitors has yet been sighted. Reception of Shamrock II. NEW YORK, June 7. David Barrle, Sir Thomas Llpton's representative In this country, has made arrangements for docking Shamrock II at Erie Basin on September 15 and 16, for her official rac ing measurements. He has also visited the Morse Iron Works and made prepara tions for the reception of the challenger on her arrival. On reaching this side she will go to the Morse Iron Works to have her ocean rig removed and her racing clothes fitted. Will Step Defender's Mast. NEW YORK, June 7. Royal Phillips Carroll's crack cutter Navahoe, which is now on the ways at City Island In the process of transformation Into a yawl, will step the steel mast -of old-Defender.

LONDON, June 7. Another of Britain's great racing trophies has been captured by an American, Foxhall Keene having won the Oaks with Cap and Bells II, rid den by Milton Henry. The owner, horse and Jockey are all thoroughbred Ameri cans, so the victory was not diluted as It was In the case of the Derby. Yesterday long odds were obtainable against the American horse, but the odds were short ened this morning until Cap and Bells II stood at the head of the list and start ed at 9 to 4 against. The holluwneas of the victory detracted from the inter est In the race. The conditions of the race were as follows: The Oaks stakes of 4500, by subscrip tion of 50 each for 3-year-old fillies, to carry 126 pounds each, about one mile and a half. The following was the result in detail: Foxhall P. Keene's fcay or brown filly Cap and Bells IL Domino-Ben Mlchree, first. Lord Ellesmere's brown filly, St. Brlnt ta, Kilwarline-Sabra, second. Richard Croker's bay filly, Minnie Dee, Fitzslmmon-Klng's Daughter, third. Twenty-one horses ran. Noonday n, the winner's stable companion, ridden by Turner, led to the tretch, where Mar.

So. altogether; the race fur nished extraordinary proof of the supe rior ability of American breeders, train ers and Jockeys. Punctilio, a chestnut filly, owned by Sir E, Vincent and ridden by Lester Reiff. won the Acorn stakes of 1000 for 2-year-old fillies at five furlongs. Fourteen horoEt? ran. "I am very proud to be the first Ameri can to win the Oaks," said Mr. Keene. "I bred the filly myseU in Kentucky, so she was American bred, owned and rid den." v Mr, Keene said he was not much of a gambler, but In this race he had put up a big stake on Cap and Bells II and had told all his friends to do the same. "There was not an American at the course whom I have heard of that did not to the National Game. put his money on Cap and Bells II," he continued. "She was not heard of in the betting a few days ago, and came down from a long price to 9 to 4." Mr. Croker, although he had a horse In the race, backed Cap and Bells II, and numerous commissions T?ere cabled from New York. Mr. Keene' Is believed to have won $10,000 in wagers. NEW YORK, June 7. James R. Keene announced today that (he Oaks stakes will be distributed amor certa n charities. The amount i 24,KaiitJTOxlmately.. pnt Jfaltof the money Is. to "be distributed In this country and one-half- to Engllsn charities. American Victories on British THrf. LONDON, June 7. The victories of Americans on the British turf is the theme of much newspaper comment. The Dally Telegraph says: "Is England going to the dogs? Has the dawn of the century given the signal for extinguishing the supremacy of the Eng lish thoroughbred and made these islands an appendage of the United States? We must possess our souls la patience and endeavor to learn lessons from the stag gering" object lessons .here provided." The sporting paper although they pay ungrudging tribute to American success, cannot conceal a certain amount of dis appointment at such unexpected results of the American system of training and rid ing. The Sporting Life confesses that it does not admire the American style of riding, but Is unable, to deny that the Americans have triumphed. "The passing generation can scarcely reconcile the same," It says, "but the world moves." THE DAY'S RACES. Winners at Oakland. SAN FRANCISCO, June 7.

THE SHERIFF HAD NERVE SAVED A GEORGIA NEGRO MUR DERER FROM LYNCHING. . Opened Fire on a Mob One Man Was Killed and Tvro Wounded, and the Astonished Crowd Fled. CARROLLTON, Ga., June 7. The nerve of a Georgia Sheriff. Joseph Merrill, today upheld the law of the state and saved the life of a negro from a mob. In protect ing ttie negro, who was saved from the gallows only a few hours before thiougn the efforts of his lawyers, one life was lost and two men -were wounded. The arrival of th estate mllltla averted threat ened trouble tonight, and at 9 o'clock special train bearing the negro, whose crime was the murder of a little white boy whom he found fishing alone, was sptedlng toward Atlanta under guard. The man killed in attacking the jail was George Bennett, of Carrollton. The wounded men are Thomas Smith, a citizen of Carrollton. and an unknown man, presumably a farmer. Thomas S. Word, father of the murdered boy, who was In the front rank of the would-be lynchers, was not hit. After Bennett fell. Mr. wora juniyeu upon a wuiuuw-aiu unu i exclaimed dramatically: "Shoot me, Mr. I Sheriff, I would as soon die now as at any time." Only nine shots were fired and the walls of the jail show the marks of tho bullets. None of the Sheriff's posse was hit. Williams, the negro, who caused the trouble, was tried and found guilty of murdering Otis Word, January 1, 1901, and sentenced to be hanged today. He was only this mornlg refused a new trial, but his attorneys filed a bill of ex ceptions and carried the case to the Su preme Court A large crowd of people had come to town to witness the hanging, and when It was learned that an appeal had been taken, delaying the execution, there was much excited talk, which crys tallized soon after In the formation of a mob. At noon the mob made an assault on the jail. They battered down the outside door, despite the warning of the Sheriff, and entered the building. They made a demand on the Sheriff for the keys to the negro's cell, but were refused. With the refusal they began their advance upon the Sheriff, and the few deputies whom he had been able to summon to his aid. They were told to stop or they would be fired on, but the order was not obeyed. As they advanced down the corridor toward ,the- Sheriff the order was given to fire. Bnnett fell, dying almost In stantly. Thomas Word, the father of Williams' victim, who was in the front of the mob, was badly shot, as was also an unknown countryman. The unexpect ed fight of the Sheriff and his little posse frightened the mob, and they retreated outside of the jail. Here they broke and ran, and soon were divided Into little" groups discussing the event. Sheriff Merrill at once consulted Judge Harris, of the County Court, and It was decided to call on Governor Candler for aid. The Governor was communicated with by telephone, and said he would send two companies from Atlanta as soon as they could be assembled. During the af ternoon the mob telephoned the situation to friends in the adjoining towns of Villa Rica and Temple, and made an appeal for more men to get possesion of the negro. This was communicated also to Governor Candler, and the Governor soon wired a proclamation to the people of the county It was read from the Courthouse steps at 4 o'clock by the Mayor. The Gover nor commanded the people to disperse, and said the entire military and civil forces of the state would be used to en force the order, If, necessary. The read ing of the proclamation apparently had good effect, as many people were sen to mount their morses-and1 leave town. Much apprehension wajj felt tor the night, and the Sheriffs and city and county officials, after a consultation, de cided to take, the prisoner out Qf the county for safekeeping. The Atlanta mi litia, under the command of Major Bar ker, arrived about 6 o'clock, and one hour later escorted the negro and Sheriff Merrill to the train, which was soon speeding southward to Atlanta.

Musical dentistry Is the latest discovery In Paris. It has been taken up by a well known physician, who expounded It before the Paris Academy of Medicine, and It has thus received the sanction of high scientific authority. The method consists in drawing teeth to the sounds of sweet music. A usually trying operation be comes, it is stated, not only painless, but quite pleasant, when conducted In this way. The physician adressed the acad emy meeting on behalf of a Paris dentist who has already applied the musical method with success. The Idea of the new process was first suggested by observa tion of patients under the Influence of anaesthetics, the drug used being nitro gen protoxide in vapors. As is known, the Incipient effect of the latter Is to produce in nearly every case disagreea ble sometimes almost unbearable, sensa tions, resembling those experienced in nightmare. The' dentist in question came to the conclusion that this preliminary crdcal of bad dreams ut the commence ment of the anaesthetic Influence was causeo by the perception of noises around b the mind when In a state of still par tial consciousness. Why not soothe pa tients Into the reauired condition of tem porary oblivion by sweeter sounds? The dentist tried the experiment, and he and his patients wore alike charmed with the rasult. The lattc were as good as gold, the tooth-pulling operations, not being interfered with by the groans or con tortions of sufferers, were performed with the greatest case, and on recovering consciousness all that patients remem bered were bars of the "Lohengrin" over ture, for example, still softly singing in their ears. The new method having been invented, nothing remained but to brinj it to its greatest Dosslble pitch of per fection. The obvious difficulties In the way of dentists habitually keeping bands, solo singers and choirs on the premises were avoided simply by means of pow erful phonographs. Now the operator whose new method has .been revealed to the Academy of Medicine regularly uses a machine of this kind. The patient puts the tubes to his ears, the music is started, the gas administered, and shortly after ward the occupant of the once-dreaded dental chair awakens from pleasant dreams to see the smiling surgeon show ing him his tooth. Of course a varied choice of musical selections can and, in deed, should be made to suit different temperaments and teeth. Without going into these particular questions the phy , , .. .Z . V. . : . s'clan sp0ke quIt? enthusiastically about the new process to the assembled acade micians. He is eager to apply the musical method to surgical operations in general. He Intends making experiments of his own in this direction, and he hoped that some of his hearers would do likewise. In the Antarctic. National Review. In the Antarctic Circle the monotony and solitude ate more predominant than In the Arctic. The lack of large mam mals, as, for instance, the polar bear, the polar fox, walrus, musk oxen, and, of course, the lack of population, like the Es kimo and Samoyed, make life on the land near the south pole extremely solitary. Both within the Arctic and Antarctic re gions the members of an expedition will have to face the strong strain of monotony, an enemy, in fact, superior to and much more dangerous than ice or gales. It is, therefore, necessary, In my opinion, for a successful expedition to contain mem bers, with easy minds and good tempers, wha, before they enter upon the adven ture, have shown themselves able to real ize that their minds are to face the de pressing influence of Arctic night. So much the heavier weighs the monotony on the mind of the traveler as the food will necessarily be Inferior to that of civ ilization. Thus the qualities of the Arc tic and Antarctic explorer will be tried under the most unfavorable conditions. Successful or unsuccessful work within the polar regions will, therefore, greatly depend upon whether the members of the expedition, under the most unfavorable physical conditions, will still maintain the full mental capacity for difficult work. This is, I believe, the principal factor to be taken into account in both Arctic and Antarctic exploration work. But the strain and difficulties in the south are conspicu ously much greater than in the north. The difficulties must ne,eds be greater, be cause the monotony Is greater, and the food supply less, through the scarcity of life. THE HOTELS. THE PORTLAND C TV Jones, Mllwkee F B Dallam.

ASKED TO VISIT HAWAII COMMISSIONER HERMANN CONTIN UES TO RECEIVE REQUESTS. He Thinks Such n Trip Should Not Be Made Unless Authorized. hy CongrcNX. WASHINGTON, May 2S.-CommIssioner Hermann, of the General Land Oflice, continues to receive letters from Delegate Wilcox and other prominent Hawailans. asking him to visit the lslanda and make a thorough examination of their public lands and land laws, so that he may com prehensively deal with land problems arising in the Islands, should Congress extend to them the United States land laws, or give the General Land Office supervision under some other system. To these, as to previous requests, the Com missioner has made reply that under the circumstances he does not feel justified in undertaking the trip, although he rec ognizes that considerable benefit might arise therefrom. The Commissioner thinks such a trp should not be made unless authorized by Congress. If the Hawaiian people In terested m securing a more satisfactory system of public land administration bring sufficient influence to bear upon Con gress to secure an authorization of such a tour of inspection, the Commissioner would be glad to undertake the Journey, upon specific lines laid down, making an investigation of such points as were adjudged worthy of inspection. "The old Hawaiian land laws are still In vogue in the Islands," explains the Commissioner. "Under that system there are many ways whereby the public do main Is disposed of. There Is the home stead, the cash sale, the leasehold dispos al, disposal of what are known as graz ing lands, etc. There Is a sentiment In Congress In favor of extending the pub lic land laws of the United States so as to Include Hawaii. Delegate Wilcox vig orously objects, and so, I am Informed, does the State Land Board. At the same time they do not approve of the present system. It is on this account that it Is desired lhat there shall be a careful In vestigation made, so the conditions which can be observed and reported upon. In other words, they are of the opinion that In order to get favorable and satisfactory legislation from Congress it Is necessary that some recognized official of this Gov ernment should make a personal Investi gation and report upon his field obser vations. "Last Winter I expressed my views on this matter," continued the Commission er, "and 1 found that my views very large ly met with the approval or ueiegate u cox. I think the broad provisions of tho general land laws of the United States would be Inapplicable to Hawaii in various particulars, especially as regards the most important law, the homestead act. I would object to the extension of the home stead law as a whole, without qualifica tion, because of the limited supply of what might be termed homestead lands; that is to say, such lands as are agricul tural In quality. Moreover, the great value of Hawaiian lands, together with their enormous productiveness, render it necessary that homesteads should be very limited In area. The maximum could bo fixed at 20 acres, Instead of 160 acres, as Is now allowed In the United States. These lands which I refer to as homestead lands are now occupied under leases, many of which are about to expire, and If some form of homestead law were now in force In Hawaii these lands could bo finally disposed of by the Government un der such a law. As it Is, however, these expiring leases will have to be renewed. "The classification of lands in the Ha waiian Islands is Improperly made. There inhonid taft a new and , different classlflc- Iftloa than that which, ncrexlste ,lu- tha miDlier system- Then again there Is a tdefect apparent In the-method of surveys which have been practiced in tne lsianas. I further recognize that for the purposes of adjudication between contestants the system which has been so long employed In the Government service in the United States, and which has been so success ful and so popular, to-wit, the local land office, with Its register and receiver, should be adopted. "In this connection I would suggest one local land office for the entire Islands, with the register and receiver at Hono lulu, to meet the people, and decide all contests in the original Instance, with right of appeal to the general land office and further appeal to the Secretary of the Interior." The Commissioner explained that un der the present law all matters pertain ing to the disposal of public lands In Ha waii must be addressed to the President of the United States. Under this law the disposal of these public lands Is practically suspended, as the President Is only au thorized to renew leases. New legislation will be necessary before these lands can bo taken up under the homestead or any other law. Fnnlon in Iorvn. DES MOINES. la., June 7.
