GRAND TROTTING CIRCUIT OPENED , AT DETROIT. ' Challenges the Citizens of Portland. 10 Dismantling: of tfee-Xew Yacat, Pre paratory to Her Trip Across the , Atlantic; Began. ROTHESAY, Firth of Clyde, July 15. The final racing trial of the two Sham rocks today -was over a 26-mlIe course, from Cralgmore to Skelmorlle, thence to Tomon-End, off Largs, and back to the starting point This course was salle4 twice over. A fresh, strong westerly wind of from 13 to 14 knots was blowing. The challenger had the better 6j t!he maneu vering for position, and led the Shamrock I over the line by about three lengths. The run to Skelmorlle was dead down the wind, and the challenger, rapidly increas ing her lead, rounded the first mark at Skelmorlle one minute and 57 seconds ahead of the Shamrock I. On the broad, easy reach to Tomon-End the challenger increased her lead until she was 2& min utes ahead, when she encountered a softer wind and the ex-challenger closed up. Turning the Erin, off Tomon-End, the Shamrock II was one minute and .43 sec onds ahead. The boats could have fetched home from this point, but in order to give a turn to windward, the Erin steamed away and laid a new mark off Mount) Stewart. The yachts then beat across the firth on short tacks, the challenger gaining on every beat After a four-mile beat, the two boats rounded the Erin, the Shamrock II two minutes and 20 second ahead of the older boat Reaching 10 miles up the Chan nel, the challenger outsailed the older boat, and the timing at the turn at In verkeep Bay showed a difference of nine minutes in favor of the Shamrock IL The boats then reached lor Largs, where the Shamrock II was still nine minutes ahead of the old boat. During the' run home from Largs, the Shamrock I experienced a big fluke- and closed up her distance, finishing 1 minutes astern of the Sham rock IL On the last leg, the Shamrock I was helped by a rain squall, which did not touch the challenger and enabled the ex-challenger to close the separating gap. The corrected rime of the finish is: Shamrock II, 3 hours, 39 minutes, 5 sec onds. Shamrock I, 3 hours, 40 minutes, 45 sec onds. The fluke which enabled the ex-challenger to finish so close to the Shamrock II does not, in the opinion of experts, In any way detract from what Is regarded as a splendid performance on the part of the Shamrock IL At the conclusion of the trials, an Immediate start was made to wards dismantling the challenger. Early tomorrow morning her racing canvas will be packed for shipment. After this is done, her present spars will be replaced by her ocean rigging. It is believed that the challenger may possibly start for the oth er side July 22. XATIOXAIi LEAGUE. Xew York Shut Out St. Lonis. ST. LOUIS. July 15.

The second day of the National Scheutzenfest opened today with Ideal weather for the marks men, but during the afternoon a fresh westerly breeze blew over the ranges at Shell Mound Park.

The first bullseye of the day, for which a special prize was awarded, was made by B. Jonas, of the San Francisco Turner Scheutzen. Scores of shobteig faced nearly all the targets, but for some unexplained reason the honorary targets, which It was expected would be shot at by at least 400 men during the meet, was almost neg lected. During the afternoon the attend ance, of spectators largely increased, and much interest was manifested. The shoot ing was continued until 7 P. M., when the prizes of the day were distributed In the Temple of Gifts. The evening closed with dancing in the pavilion. The first cups of the festival, on scores of 300 or more, were awarded to the fol lowing: T. R. Gelsel, Massachusetts; Emll Schmld, Sacramento; Captain Frank Ruhstaller, Sacramento.

Pitched Battle and Wholesale Kill ins: in Nerr Mexico. HEREFORD, Tex., July 15. Word reached this- place today of a regular pitched battle and wholesalle killing be tween Mexicans and negroes, who are working on the new Rock Island extension in New Mexico, 100 miles west of here. The trouble originated in the killing of a Mexican by a negro some weeks since. The authorities undertook to arrest the assailant but his friends interfered, and they were obliged tto withdraw. Last week some 35 or 40 Mexicans armed themselves with Winchester repeaters and went after the negro. A battle took place, in which 15 negroes were killed outright and sev eral wounded. The casualties among the Mexicans 'cannot be learned. The trouble occurred at! Spencer's railroad camp, near Liberty, N. M., in a sparsely settled por tlon of the territory, where peace officers are few and the law is not rigidly en forced. HIS AIM WAS BAD. Bntte Man Narrowly Escaped Being; a Double Murderer. BUTTE, Mont. July 15. James W. James, fireman at the Gagnon mine, only missed being a double murderer today through his excitement and bad aim. His stepdaughter, Sadie Langreen, has been engaged to George W. Schindler for some time". The stepfather has been opposed to the marriage. This morning, while James was at work, the young couple went? off and got married. When James returned home this afternoon and heard of it he sent for Schindler and bride, saying that he wanted to talk it over with them and make up. The young couple went to the house of James. After a few friendly words James jumped up excitedly, and, drawing his pistol, took two shots at Schindler and his wife. Either his excite ment was too great or his aim was too poor. He missed both shots. Before he could shoot again a policeman, who was near by, rushed in and arrested him. The charge will be attempted murder. James had made threats against the young cou ple In case they married. Shot by a Game Warden. DELTA, Colo.. July 15. Deputy Game Warden F. A McHaney, al half-breed Indian, shot and killed W. A Womack, and fatally wounded A. L. Hinchman who, it is claimed, resisted arrest when illegally fishing in Grand Mesa Lake. Mc Haney gave himself Up and was taken to Gunnison for safe keeping, as the feeling against him among people in the vicinity of the lake is very bitter. For several years there has been friction between the citizens of Delta County and the game wardens, who were stationed at the lake to prevent fhe public from fishing there. The citizens claim that the lake Is public land, stocked with fish. William Rad cllffe, on the other hand, claims exclusive fishing privileges on account of stocking the lakes and by virtue of state law, and he employed the game wardens to prottect b,ls rlchts.

"The Russian civil administrator here," says a dispatch to the Morning Post from Nlu Chwang, dated July 12, "has prepared a proclama tion declaring that the port of Nlu Chwang has been taken over by Russia. This will be issued on receipt of the offi cial document from Pekln. The proclama tion will decree that all houses shall be liable to a tax of 60 cents per month, and all Chinese a poll tax of $1 50 a month. It will direct that various professions must be denoted by various clothing." 7 THE QUELPART UPRISING. It May Lead to Foreign Interven tion. WASHINGTON, July 15.-FU11 mail re ports that reach Washington respecting the recent uprising on the Corean island of Quelpart say that It is not Improbable that the appearance on the scene of the trouble of two French gunboats and one Japanese warship may lead to foreign In tervention. -If the Islanders persist In their rebellious attitude it will be difficult for the Corean Government to put It down without foreign assistance. The French Minister at Seoul reports that the employ ment of native Catholics to collect ex orbitant taxes caused the natives to per secute their brethren. It is now apparent from reports which have reached the State Department from China that it was solely due to the mod eration and humanity exercised by the United States representatives at Pekln iy the President's direction In the early ne gotiations for a settlement of the Boxer trouble that a number of Innocent lives were not sacrificed. These reports show that a more sober and painstaking Inquiry has developed the fact that some of the Chinese officials supposed., to have been connected with the Boxer outrages, whose capital punishment was demanded by the foreign Ministers, have been proved to be entirely innocent of the charges made against them. In many other cases proof has been adduced that the offenses with which, the Chinese officials were charged were not nearly so grave as was supposed at first by the foreign representatives In Pekln. It Is regarded here by officials as a matter for congratulation that Messrs. Conger and Rockhill moved with deliber ation and acted as a restraining Influence in the matter of punishment, for not only were these lives saved, but, under their influence, the whole list of capital sen tences was reduced from 10 to four, and mitigation of other offenses was obtained. The last mall from the East has brought a detailed newspaper account of the shooting affray at Pekln, which has re sulted In a German claim against the United States. The account, which ap pears in a Japanese newspaper, states that an American sentry had been posted at the western extremity of Legation street, close to where the new American legation is building. That portion of Le gation street was belrtg newly macadam ized and rolled. A barricade had been put up, and Major Robertson had posted a sentry on the spot to warn persons not to ride over the newly-made road, pedes trians only being allowed to travel It A German officer came riding along, knocked down both the sentry and the barricade and galloped across the. forbidden route. The sentry scrambled to his feet and sent a shot after the officer, but missed, and the bullet lodged in the leg of a German sentry standing on duty half way down the street. The newspaper states that tHs American was sentenced' to one month's Imprisonment and fined a month's pay, "presumably for hitting the wrong man." COMPLIED WITH DEMANDS. China Suspends Examinations for Period of Five Years. NEW YORK, July 15. A dispatch from Washington the Herald says: China has formally compiled with the de mand of the powers that she suspend "for five years all official examinations in all the cities where foreigners have been massa cred or have been subjet to cruel treat ment," but she has done It In such a way as to rob the suspe'nslon of the punitive. chaacter desired by the foreign govern ments. The Emperor has Issed an edict sus pending the examinations not only In the guilty districts, but throughout the entire country for a period of five years. Instead of announcing that this Is arcsult of the 1)1 treatment of foreigners, the edict explains that the Emperor desires to give the stu dents In every province an opportunity to prepare for an entirely new and modern system of examination. The United States has not agreed to the action looking to the advisability of the foreign Ministers in Pekin demanding that a special punishment be administered in those districts in which foreigners were outraged. This government is anxious that the powers should retire from China as promptly as possible. While China has in the matter of examinations, turned a difficulty, It Is pointed out that the other terms demanded are exceedingly rigorous, and It will be difficult for the Imperial Government to comply with them and at the same time preserve its prestige at home. Prince Chan at Woo Sung. SHANGHAI, juiy 15. Prince Chun, who left Pekin July 12 on his way to Berlin to apologize to Emperor William for the murder of Baron von Ket,teler, the. Ger man Minister to China, arrived today at Woo Sung, 1$ miles north, of here. No offi cial reception was arranged, public opin ion being against such recognition of Prince Chun There have been disastrous floods on the Tangtse Klang River near Hankow, In which hundreds of lives were lost. To Build Railways in China. LONDON, July 16. "A great Belgian, Russian and French syndicate Is forming here," say's the Brussels correspondent of the Standard, "to construct railways In China. It will have a capital of 1,000,000,000 francs." HARK FROM THE TOMBS. Here Is a Democrat Who Gives His Party Good Advice. PORTLAND, July 13. (To the-Edltor.) All along the line we hear the distant reveille of the 1902 election In Oregon. There are many possible candidates, with but few probable ones, for the many dif ferent offices in the gift of the dear peo ple. Already the G. O. P. have com- .menced the printing of pictures of their candidates, in blocks of four for Gov ernor, three for Secretary of State, and a line of five for State Printer, with Gra ham Glass to hear from. There Is another party in which I have a deep interest to whose principles I have given my earnest support since the days when Horatio Seymour and Frank P. Blair were the Presidential nominees. Through all these years I have been steadfast In the principles set forth by the National Democratic conventions. To me, It appears, we have lost our ruddder, and are simply drifting, and with each new commander we have drifted on the rocks of political disappointment, and were ship wrecked We have allowed our party to be drawn Into dangerous channels by in dorsing too many "isms." We have taken "laughing gas" In large doses. Twice the Democrats of Oregon have electea a Re publican United States Senator, and If there Is one of those so-called Democrat who can tell where of how he has ad- vanced the best Interests of his party by so-doing, he will probably be rewarded A PUBLIC TEST TO, BE MADE And the Result to Be Published In This Paper. This important challenge is not only to the citizens of Portland, but to the entire civilized world. The public will be Inter ested In the outcome of this investigation to prove the great merits of their already famous discovery. The offer made by the A R. Bremer Company in their challenge above alluded to is a plainly worded one. They assert that their discovery, Coke Dandruff Cure, will positively cure the most stubborn and common of all trou bles, dandruff and falling hair, which 90 per cent of the people are annoyed with. It is thought that the best possible way to publicly determine the merit of Coke Dandruff Cure is to give away to all those Interested In th's matter a sample bottle, and to have It done in such an open man ner that none can question the honesty of the test A large number of samples have been sent to Woodard, Clarke & Co.'s drug store, Fourth and Washington streets, and will be given out to all those troubled with dandruff, falling hair or any disease of the scalp. Apply today between 8 A. M. and 6 P. M. There will also be given to each appli cant for a free sample a little book treat ing on troubles qf the "hair and scalp, Which sets out in a clear, plain manner Justf such information as you want to know. Bear in mind the free distribution at Wcodard, Clarke & Co.'s drug store, Fourth and Washington streets, will begin tnis morning at 8 o'clock, and end Friday at 9 P. M. Admiral George Dewey writes: "I have used COKE DANDRUFF CURE for the past year and found it an excellent prep aration." Coke Shampoo and Toilet Soap wonder fully good for the hair and scalp. Cures shiny skin. by being renominated. Every Democrat who has ever forsaken the principles of his party where National questions are in volved has been burled so deep in politi cal perdition that he will, never hear the great trumpet sounding the assembling of the faithful. Now, what are we going to do In 1902? It is apparent to my mind that we must get back to the true principles of Democ racy free trade, pure and simple, and ad vocate a financial policy recognized by the business world as safe. Then upon auch a platform nominate for Governor such a man as Hon. George E. Chamberlain or Colonel Robert Inman, of Portland, Judge Bennett or Judge Bradshaw, of The Dalles, or John H. Smith, of Astoria,, and every man who has ever voted the Demo cratic ticket (with very few exceptions) will come back to our ranks. But as long as we continue to be a party of isms and vagaries we can never win. Halng nothing but the best interests or the Democratic party at heart, I want us to get back where we belong have our ticket marked plain "Democratic ticket," and In the language of Daniel Webster, "Sink or swim, live or die, survive or perish, give our heart and hand to these principles." Ohio Democrats pressed the right button, and the electric current will pass along the line to every Democratic convention until we will finally stand upon the solid rock of .true Democracy. WMt HENDERSHOTT. STRONG AND MAY YOHE. Particulars of the Young Officer's Latest Episode. San Francisco Bulletin. Captain Strong Is the son of ex-Mayor Strong, of New York. Through political influence he went Into the Army and be came a Major of volunteers. He passed through here on his way to Manila and was soon known In various sets as rather a gay young man. He did good service In the Philippines, and when mustered out of the volunteer service had enough In fluence to be appointed to the regular Army as Captain In the Quartermaster's Department, attached to the transport In galls, now under orders for Manila. At the Army headquarters It was not believed that the Captain Strong who was ejected frpm the California could possibly be the Captain Strong In the Army. "Why," said the chief clerk, "the In galls Is not on this Coast She Is on the Atlantic seaboard. It can't possibly be Captain P. B. Strong." "But he has been recognized." "Oh, well, then, It must be he. I don't see what he can be doing here." "If this Is known would he get into trouble?" "He certainly would If It were reported." Then Captain Strong must look for breakers ahead In this direction. There are no orders in the Army building de tailing him to this Coast, and therefore his being here must be a clear case of disobedience of orders, for he Is attached to the Ingalls. Captain Strong has not been at all care ful to hide his identity. It is true that though he has kept his room at the Pal ace, he has not used it His key has never been out of Us box. He has,4 however, been a liberal patron at the bar and of the grillroom. Lady Frances Hope and he have ap peared there frequently. Lady Frances keeps her pet dogs there, and she and the Captain have paid frequent visits to them, being particularly solicitous that they be properly fed and cared for. Tn the day time Lady Frances Hope has not been dressed at all picturesquely. In fact, she has been so poorly dressed that she escaped recognition. Her favor ite dress has been a khaki-colored one, and made so unbecomingly that she has even been called "a dowdy." Yesterday about 4 P. M. she was recog nized, and the report that Lady Frances Hope was here with Captain Strong soon spread. . May Yohe Is well known In this city. She was here in 1S93 and then announced her determination to leave the stage, where she had made quite a hit in bur lesque, to marry a rich San Franciscan. The marriage never took place, though there was considerable talk about it She went back to New York from here. In 183? -May Yohe was playing at the Ga'rden Theater, in New York, and there caught the attention of Lord Francis Hope. Lord Francis Hope Is the heir pre sumptive to the Duchy of Newcastle. May Yohe was fascinated with the title, prob ably, and next day she canceled her en gagement with the theater and sailed for London. Lord Francis secured her an en gagement with the "Little Christopher Columbus" Company, Introduced her to the Prince of Wales, had her sing planta tion melodies In swagger drawing-rooms, and May Yohe was the rage. Then came rumors that she was mar ried to Lord Hope. This both parties de nied, but the fact was proved that the ceremony had taken place at the parish church of Hampstead. Lord Hope's family, it is said, bitterly fought the marriage, and offered her 5100, 000 in cash not to marry the nobleman. May Yohe, however, refused, and so well did she play her part that she became great friends with the Dowager Duchess of Newcastle, who has a wide reputation for philanthropic work. In 1898 Lord Hope went through bank ruptcy, and It Is estimated that he had .wasted 53,269,710 In riotous living. Hla debts were so heavy that he had to ap J ply, to the courts for permission to sell his For ten years Drs. Copeland and Montgomery have conducted In this city the largest practice ever known In the history of the Northwest The people know them. Their fame has grown In the strong light of intimacy and permanency.

Copeland and Montgomery has grown stronger, and confi dence In their ability more implicit, until they are now recognized as masters In the treatment of all forms of chronic disease. The testimony supporting their practice has come from reputable citizens, neighbors, dwellers In this city and residents in this vicinity, whose reputation and movements are well known or may be known to all who care to Inquire. Such testimony is enduring proof that Drs. Copeland and Montgomery are really curing, not merely helping or relieving, not merely Improving and benefit ing alone, but curing disease.

Little Elvrood Cox, of 331 Chapman street, Portland, is one of the very great number of children who have been af flicted with catarrhal disease of the nose, throat and ears, which Is so prevalent In this climate. That he has been Completely Cured and restored to health Is attested by his mother, Mrs. Irma P. Cox, In the fol lowing strong language: "My little boy Elwood, aged six, was in a very serious condition when we took him to Drs.

His nose was stopped,! up, preventing breathing through that organ In a natural manner, and he Breathed Through His Month entirely, causing his mouth to be dry and parched and giving his face a dull, stupid look. Hl? tonsils were greatly enlarged and seemed to entirely fill his throat "His sleep was very restless and broken, and he would snore and make such a noise that he could be heard all over the house. At times His Throat wduld seem to fill and close up, and he would throw himself round, crying and gasping for breath. The night before we placed him under treatment he had one of these spells, and I thought he would surely choke before anything could be done for him. "His ears became involved, and his hearing became so greatly Impaired that I feared her would be Deaf for Life. "His general health suffered greatly. family pictures, and their sale brought In 5400.000. About a year ago Lord Francis Hope and his wife passed through San Fran cisco. They had been In Australia. They were a most devoted pair, and Lady Francis spent a great deal of her time with her friend, Edna Wallace Hopper, In Oakland. aZT U ronnrA nf W Win age. There Is no record of her having been divorced from Lord Francis. They are, presumably, man and wife now. Lord Hope is In England, and If his affection Is the same for her now as when he was with her In San Francisco a year ago, they must be quite strong. Where Captain Strong and Lady Francis went this morning can only be left to conjecture. Captain Strong received a dis- patch as he was leaving the hotel, ad- dressed to "Major Strong, California Ho- tl" it was nrftsented to him. H refused to acceDt it and haughtily answered: "I don't know the man. I am not Major Strong." It was sent to the Palace. Captain Strong Is generally around the Palace early In the morning, but this morning he was not to be seen In his fa vorite place the barroom. Tornndo ;n Manitoba. WINNIPEG, Man., July 15.
