Portland Sports Tnlk of San Fran cisco Prize Fight. Two Portland men. Jack Grant and L. E. Juston, returned yesterday from San Francisco, where they saw the big cham pionship prizefight last Friday evening. Both men are loud in their praise of the exhibition and both declare that it was an open .and above board contest, not the "fake" that has been charged by certain San Francisco papers. "It was by long odds the best mix-up I have ever seen." said Grint last even ing. 'Fitz is getting old, but he put up a game fight nevertheless. Although he Is a 'showy fighter, he is not the effective slugger that Jeffries Is. 'Fitz' annoed the big man not a little and landed on him hard a couple of times, but the hardest blows he could send home did not knock Jeffries off his 'pins. It is true that the champion was cut up a little about the face, but he was altogether too strong for 'Fitz.' A hard blow over the heart, landed by Jeffries in the seventh round, Is what took the ginger out of the Cornishman. and the stiff punchos of the eighth round put him in bad shape. Then came the chance blow that finished the business. I am positive that the affair was not a 'fake.' I would wllllnglv return to San Francisco and pay my money over again to see such a fight It was the best on record." Mr. Juston believes 'Fitz' the better man, and is willing to pin his faith on the Cornishman any time. Whn seen yesterday, he said: "Fitzsimmons appeared to have somewhat of an ad vantage over the big man. as he had him going In the early rounds. Jeffries is not as quick and active as the Corn ishman, and I believe the latter would have won but for that chance blow In the eighth. I think the fight was fair, and am -not inclined to believe the charge of 'fake.' " Jamcta J. Corbett "Will Iteferee. NEW YORK. July 28. At a conference here today between Sam Harris, repre senting Terry McGovern, and "Young Corbett," representing himself, James J. Corbett was selected as referee for the fight between the two featherweights at New London, August 29, Corbett refused to accept Tim Hurst. Harris then pro posed James J. Corbett, and the Denver boy promptly accepted him. Handler Outclassed by Carter. BUFFALO, July 28. The fight between Kid Carter, of Brooklyn, and Jimmy Handler, of Jersey City, was stopped in the second round here tonight, with Handler on the floor and all but knocked out. Handler was very slow. Carter hammered him all over the ring, while Handler did not land one single blow. Bantam Defends Ills Title. CHICAGO. July 2S.

Archbishop Ireland's last statement on the Phllllpine school question should be accepted as conclusive evidence that the church authorities In the United States place no credence In the absurd reports that the administration had lent Itself to schemes for Protestant proselyting in the archipelago. It was nlmost unnecessary for him to add to his former Utterances on the subject, but his fine patriotism was doubtless offended by the comparison of the attiude of the Roman author ties and that of those American Catholics who lent themselves to the abuse of the American government It is noteworthy that the pontiff himself should have taken occasion to express his satisfaction at the attitude of the Republic toward tho relllgious question in the Philippines and it is a source of satisfaction to every broad-minded American to find that his opinion coincided: with that of the arch bishop, who has shown on so manyocca slons the qualities which pertain to states men. The administration deserves the support of American Catholics .not their opposition. It has done what every American administration would do shown complete Justice to all creeds. THE MORNING- CUNNINGHAM IS LET OUTl PRESIDEXT LUCAS RELEASES UM PIRE FROM LEAGUE STAFF. Four Clubs Protest ' Against Him Chnuncey Fisher, an Ex-Pitcher, Named as His Successor. SEATTLE, July 2S. Bert Cunningham, the umpire, has been released. His place will be taken by Chauncey Fisher, the old league pitcher, who will officiate at Portland tomorrow Iri the game between Helena and Portland. Helena and Spokane had protested against the work of Cunningham, and his release was decided upon at the. meeting of the directors held in Spokane last Fri day, but the news was not made public at that time. Fisher played with Chi cago under Comlskey two years ago. He has been a fine box artist in his day, but had to make room for younger players. He has been in California lor the past year, and comes from there to Portland. A genuine surprise hit Portland baseball dom yesterday, -when the news came her that Umpire Cunningham had been re leased from the otaff of league umpires. The Information came in the following telegrams: Chester A. "VVhltemore. President Portland Baseball Club-Cunningham out. Please have Ed Rankin umpire Helena game this week until regular umpire arrives. W. H. LUCAS. 5. Cunningham Your services as umpire are no longer required by this league. Four clubs protest against you. H. LUCAS. Although It was known last week that there was some opposition to Cunning ham, it was thought that when no action was taken at the league meeting last Fri day hJs services would he rntnlnpd. At the meeting all of the clubs but Port land declared themselves as opposed to Cunningham Just where any kick can be made at Cunningham Is hard to see. In all the games in which he has officiated here he nas aone gooJ work. Hia decisions have been quick and impartial. He has always conducted himself as a gentleman, and commanded the respect of the players. Mr. Lucas will have to go a long way be fore he can find a man that will do as good or better work than did Cunningham. Cunningham -himself did not seem to be so very much surprised at the notice of his dismissal. Neither did he seem to care much, but he was a JIttle "sore" because he had received no notice before. That he should be let out. without any notice at all seems to him rather an Injustice. The Portland directors had nothing to do with his removal, and are sorry to see him go. At the meeting In Spokane both Mr. Whitemore and Mr. Marshall ex pressed themselves as satisfied with Cun ningham, and urged to have him retained. Ed Rankin, who will succeed him if Fisher, who is expected today, falls to ar rive, is a well-known Portland man. He is an ex-baseball player, and has um pired nearly every amateur game in the city for several years past. Last season he umpired at Portland during the time between McDermott's release and the ar rival or O'Connell. He wanted to get on the league staff this season, but the by-laws of the league would not per mit a resident of any of the towns In the league to umpire except in emergency cases like this. HELENA NINE ARRIVES. "Will Open n Scries "With th Locals This Afternoon. Jack Flannery and the Helena hn.hnu team arrived yesterday morning and will open a series with the locals this after noon. The Senators have been greatly strengthened since they were here last time. Flannery has a good team in the field now, and expects to take a good share of the games away with him this week. Wiggs, his big pitcher, has been under the weather thB paBt week, and has not pitched hla usual ball, but he Is fast recoyerln:, and will be in trim to do some twirling this week. For a pitcher he Is vr , ly a woner. Portus Baxter has the following to say of Wiggs in baseball review in the Seattle Post-Intelligencer: Giant Wlggs-a good name for a great pitch er. Manager Flannery. of the Helena baseball club, made a ten-strike when he got this six- c.Wau. fr0m, Com,sk'. of the Chicago "W hlte-Stocklngs. It is evident that th usu ally astute magnate did not realize that he was letting a prlte slip through his Angers, and It would not be surprising to see him try ing to back-track at the end of this season More than one of the big clubs will soon have strings out for the whirlwind of Montana, The only thing that mars Wiggs work Is an inclination to wlldnetu. but as the season has advanced he has made steady Improvement in this line, and can now be said to have ex cellent control. In his palmiest days Jim "Whitney, the famous old Boston pitcher, could not muster up more speed than hls long-geared young man. He fairly burns the air. and the batsman is lucky, if he can get his bat at right angles to the plate before the ball is in the catcher's mlt. Wiggs realizes that one of the great points in the success of a pitcher is "perfect control" of the ball. He has worked like a Trojan to overcome his faults In lack of control, and his record against Seattle recently Is a painful reminder of how well he is succeeding. If my memory does not play me false. Seattle scored two runs and 1 doubt If these were earned in 2S innings. That is a record of which any pitcher may well be proud. In 1001 Wiggs signed with St Joseph, but on July 1 was traded to Des Moines for Stef fanl and another player. Later In the season he was released at his own request owing to his poor physical condition. Afterward he signed with Minneapolis, but owing to a dis agreement with the owner of the club he left at Denver and went to Chicago and finished the season with the American League club of that city. Although he did not oiuclate In any of the regular games, he made a good Impres sion. At the beginning of the present season Comlskey. the owner, and Clark Griffith, form erly of Tacoma, the manager, thought they had so many stars that they could get along without the services of Wiggs, whom they looked upon as an unknown quantity. This was a mistake such as bobs up in the lives of all great baseball managers. Wiggs went to Helena, and the first time he stepped Into the box In this city his action proclaimed him a coming pitcher. At the beginning of the sea son I gave a brief size-up of Wiggs, and his work since then has more than verified my estimate. Unless he has some misfortune of which It is Impossible to take account now, he will go to the front In any company. STANDING OF THE CLUBS. " Notional League. Won. Lost, P. C.

PURIST$ AND WORDS. Reminiscences of Noah Brooks Among Language Experts. New York Times. Senator Sumner was a purist In his use of words, although he sometimes uses a word of learned length and thunder sound when n simplex word would do as well. I listened to a running debate in the Senate one afternoon In which Senator Conness, of California, employed the word "ver biage" in place of "wording," as was the fashion some years ago. I saw that Mr. Sumner wasmused by this, and he in duced the California Senator to use the word several times, meanwhile winking to some of his neighbors. The Senate ad journed soon after the debate closed, and I took a street-car near the door of the Senate wing of the CapltoL Presently I saw Senator Sumner. Senator Allison and Senator Wlndom approaching the car and laughing very heartily over something about which they were talking. Sumner led the column, and, looking Into the car, he saw me and turned his head, saying, "Hush, hush, here's his friend Brooks." A few days later I took breakfast with Senator Sumner, and of course I embraced the first occasion I could make to use the word "verbiage" as the Senator from Cal ifornia had used It. Sumner Instantly cor rected me with the air of one who ex pects no reply. Astonished that I should venture to defend my use of the word, he commanded the dictionary. Webster's un abridged, to be brought, when, lo, and be hold, the lexicographer sustained me. With one of his proconsular gestures, the Senator said: "Usage,, my dear fellow; usage fa vors the use of verbiage as surplusage of words; and usage, my dear fellow, is au tocratic" I wanted to tell him that Sen ator Sumner was autocratic, but I did not Since that time, however, usage has act ually dhanged the meaning of the word so that It Is no longer used to express the wording of a composition, but Its verbos ity. Nevertheless, I noticed the other day that Senator Depew used "verbiage" In the sense of wording; and some editions of Webster's Dictionary still carry the old-fashloncd definition. Speaking- in the Senate upon the bill to abrogate the Canadian reciprocity treaty Mr. Sumner said the treaty was unil ateral. With portentous gravity Senator Nesmllh, of Oregon, said: "I. beg pardon of the erudite Senator from Massachu setts, hut does he mean to say that the agreement is jughandled?" 1 once complimented Mr. Sumner on the fact that In the Senate, where some men put their heels on their desk or hung their legs over the arm of their curule chair, his attitude was always dignified. With something of the air of one making a con fidential disclosure he said: "That Is the result of habit I never, even In the pri vacy of my lodgings, fall Into an attitude that I would not take in the Senate." Mrs. Lincoln liked and admired Senator Sumner very much. She did not dislike Secretary Seward, but she would have re joiced If Mr. Sumner could have been made Secretary' of State, and she took frequent occasion to say so to the President. She showed Sumner every attention and cour-. tesy that was possible for "the First Lady of the Land" to show to any man. Sum ner manifested his appreciation, years afterward, by taking up and championing with ardor the bill to give her a widow's special pension. At that time there were not a few Congressmen who cherished against the poor lady an animosity as unreasonable as it was mischievous. Noth ing could be further from the truth than the current saying that by virtue of her Southern birth she was at heart a rebel and that she had given state secrets to Mbel emissaries. People failed to see the llloglcalness of her being willing to leave the White Hquse to the President of the Confederacy while she was reputed to be overfond of her place. As for state secrets. JULY 29, 1902. the poor- lady never saw one; and she would not have known It if she saw it Mr. Brander Matthews, who is an au thority on the use of words, may yet be fooled by the sound of a word Into a, mis spelling of the same. Thus, in a recent paper on Mr. Lounsbury's book, "Shake spearean Wars," he Is making mention of the full current of Shakespearean criti cism and commentary, and says It is "al ways brimming over the levies." Mr. Matthews has In mind the Southern pro nunciation of levee, but "levies" is the plural for levy, a forced loan or contribu tion, and Mr. Matthews mcan3 to say that the levees are always full. Similarly, at least one-half of the fiction writer? of the present day use the adject ive "staid" In place of the past participle "stayed." They will Insist that Sir George "staid an hour talking to Lady Arabella" when they mean to say that he tarried or stayed. How would Spencer's familiar lines look If written, "Too late I staid forgive the crlme "? When Representative Wheeler, of Ken tucky, stigmatized Prince Henry as "a Httl6 Dutchman," he evinced the true spirit of the American hoodlum. The Prince Is neither little nor even a Dutch man. No matter, it is hoodlumlte to re gard all foreigners with a certain super cilious superiority that belongs to a mas ter race. It is well to affect Ignorance of the racial antecedents of the stranger. He is not an American; therefore, let him be consigned to any category of the lower orders of mankind. To the Ameri can hoodlum all the neonle.s of Nortrern Europe are ".Dutchmen." Danish, Scan dinavians, Russians, Germans, Prussians, Flnlanders and Hollanders are to him In discriminately "Dutch." Taking in the South of Europe, Portuguese, Spaniards, Italians, Maltese and Greeks, are "da .goes." California has enriched the language with two words used in this paragraph. Hoodlums were a band of toughs and thieves In San Francisco. They had their thieves' argot, or jargon, passwords, grips and pacret signs. Hoodlum was an arbi trary word, without any meaning or der ivation; the unsavory brotherhood was simply "hoodlum," as it might have been "boojum" or "slithy toves." In early times, before the Invasion by the Chi nese, the hewers of wood and drawers of water In California were Portuguese. They cultivated thrifty little truck gar dens and carried on a fishing trade along the shores and up the creeks near San Francisco. The commonest name among them was Diego (Deeaygo), and the tran sition from Diego to Dago was easy and natural. The epithet was transDlanted to the Atlantic Coast, and the American hoodlum found It eusy to badge the entire Latin race with it. Waiting fcr a train at a New Jersey railway station one day, my attention was attracted by two Italians who were talk ing animatedly In their native tongue. As they kept up their dialogue, two American laborers regarded, them with a half-pitying superciliousness of the superior race, as one might regard the futile efforts of a cnimpanzee to make himself understood. Presently one of the two Americans said: "That ain't no language that them fellers are talkln'. It's only Jest a Jabber." NOAH BROOKS. Commenting on the above, the Boston Herald says: "This is very entertaining; but the Dic tionary of American Biography supports our Impression that occurred to us on 'reading i..e anecdote, that Mr. Conness had ceased being a member of the Senate before Allison or Wlndom became Sen ators. Furthermore, we do not find In Webster's Dictionary, nor in Worcester's (which Sumner would have been apt to regard as the better authority), nor in the Standard dictionary, nor the Century, that the word verbiage ever had another mean ing than verbosity, superfluity of words." 1 PRESERVATION OF EGGS. Loss of Moisture the Principal Cause of Decay. London Lancet On-no subject is there a greater conflict of opinion than on the preservation of eggs. Some urge that the newly laid egg should be kept dry and others that Is should be kept moist or even Immersed in a fluid. Of course, by effectually seal ing the pores of a shell as with wax or grease the moment the egg Is laid no dif ference In weight by the loss of moisture can occur, and It Is unlikely that any thing can enter the egg from the out side. There Is little doubt that the change from a fresh to a stale condition Is partly a question of the loss of mois ture and partly a disturbance of equilib rium by external agencies. The simple method described by Sir W. T. Calrdner about a year ago would ap pear to establish this view. The method consists merely in greasing the eggs the moment they are laid and before they have cooled. This procedure Is so suc cessful that eggs so treated are said to be as fresh to the taste when weeks and even months old as they are when eaten an hour after being laid. It is also sug gested to immerse eggs in a strong so lution of silicate of soda or water glass. In this case the preservative effect Is probably due to tho formation of a hard glassy silicate of lime within the sub stance of the shell, forming, so to bpeak, a perfect airtight envelope of glass. The egg is in a way hermetically sealed. This, however, Is no argument In favor of wet storage, and even by the slllcatlng pro cess we Imagine that the absolutely new ly laid warm egg must be, selected for the purpose. It Is well known, further, that water glass possesses a powerful antiseptic action. Eggs treated In this way are said to preserve their fresh, milky taste for six months and to be In distinguishable from the egg taken straight from the nest. Eggs, of course, merely submerged In water would prob ably get stale more quickly than when kept under dry conditions. The ques tion of the effectual preservation of eggs Is of the utmost Importance, and one which British producers have persistently ignored, an inexplicable attitude by which much valuable 'food Is wasted and a source of profit thrown away.
