Portland, 4; Spokane, S. This score tells
tho story of the first baseball same of the
present series, played on the professional
grounds yesterday. Spokane's new
pitcher, a tall Individual named Quick,
was In the box, but tho locals batted him
freely, touching, him for seven singles
and two doublea Wltbeck was pitted
against Mr. Quick, and pitched first-class
ball from beginning to end, pulling the
home team through several uncomfort
ably tight places. Shea, substitute catcher
for Vlgneux, Injured his knee in Sun
day's game, and was unablo to appear
yesterday, so "Rube" Van Buren was
brought In from center field and placed
behind the bat, where he caught llko a
veteran. In the field, Portland's men
were changed around somewhat, Zlegler
appearing In center, and Cunningham In
right. On third bag. tho mellow-voiced
"Bill" Harris put up a great game for
Portland. He played his position fault
lessly and took every chance that came
his way. Besides this, Harris found Pitch
er Quick for two safe hits, stole
bases on two different occasions, and
scored two of Portland's four runs.
The game opened with Spokane at the
bat, McLaughlin being the first man up.
He swatted a liner to Delsel, who prompt
ly threw to first In plenty of time to re
tire tho Spokane gentleman, who was ap
proaching the bag with a speedy tread.
Kelly flew out to Zlegler at this Juncture
of the game, but-Reltz fared better and
was given a pass to first. Elsey then
knocked a foul Into the open hands of
Fred Weed, and Spokane retired without
a single hit or 6core.
Not until the second inning did the
Portland batters land on Quick, but they
landed hard, "Weed Harris and Cunning
ham each finding the Spokane pitcher for
a single. Weed and Harris both scored,
but the ex-umpire died on second when
Witbeck struck out and retired the side.
Portland pulled out two more runs In the
fourth, when Harris and Delsel went
around the circuit. Harris sent a long
drive over Reltz's head, and stolo second
base after a most exciting run that set
the bleachers yelling furiously. On an
Infield hit by Delsel, Harris got to third,
while Delsel himself landed safe at first,
amid much hurrahing on the part of Fred
Olson, who has a voice like a sea monster
and enthusiasm galore. A wild throw to
second by Catcher Elsey scored Harris,
and Delsel crossed the plate on Cunning
ham's safe hit. 'Witbeck again struck
out, and the side retired.
Spokane did not score until the sixth,
when two bad errors by Delsel and a safe
hit by Reltz scored the latter and Kelly.
In the eight, Spokane, with two out, had
a man on second and another on third;
so when McKevltt droe a hard one
through tho diamond, things looked pretty
blue for Portland. Delsel, anxious to re
gain his lost honors, headed off the swift
ly moving sphere in beautiful style, and
retired the runner and his side, whereupon
Mr. Olson, again gave vent to his feel
ings. In tho ninth Innings, Ferris lined
out a double, and scored' on Grim's long
uy to aiuiier. Frary, Quick's batting sub
stltute fanned out, but McLaughlin got
a three-bagger, and it looked as if Spo
kane would tie the score. Kelly sent a
swift one in Deisel's, direction, but
"Jakey" was not asleep, and got the ball
to Weed in time to retire McLaughlin and
the side, thus ending the game.
The Portland men appeared yesterday
in black caps and gray-striped stockings,
the latter look as If they were made from
the convict suit discarded by the late Mr.
Harry Tracy, of Salem, Or.

TO BUY NEW HOME SITE
PORTLAND ROWING CLUB TAKES
IMPORTANT ACTION.
Option to Be Closed on Tract Near
Inxnan, Poulsen & Co.'s Mill Pur
chase Price, $5000.
Members of tho Portland Rowing Club
held an- enthusiastic meeting last evening
and unanimously decided to purchase a
plot of ground for the location of a future
home for the club. The property, on which
tho club has a CO days option, belongs to
Colonel L. L. Hawkins, and is situated on
tho East Side of the Willamette River,
Just above Inrann. Poulsen &. Co.'s mill.
It has a water front of 200 feet, and ex
tends 400 feet back from the shore. Tho
place is regarded as an Ideal one for a
clubhouse site, and the aquatic facilities
are all that could be desired. The amount
asked for the property is $5000. which sum
the directors of the club hope to raise by
soiling life memberships at $100 each.
The Rowing Club is In flourishing condi
tion, owns property amounting to somo
$10,000. and has 175 active members on its
rolls. It Is not the Intention of the club
to begin construction of a new home. Im
mediately, but merely to movo the present
clubhouse to the water front of the new
site, on which a fine clubhouse will be
erected at some future time.
It has been rumored that tho Portland
Rowing Club and the Oregon Yacht Club
will be merged Into one organization, but
no ofllclal action has yet been taken.
Such a merger would doubtless benefit all
concerned, as a very strong club could be
formed from tho two organizations.

16TH CENTURY MORGAN.
One of the Greatest Traders That
Ever Lived.
Niw York Mali and Express.
The American citizen most talked about
In the world Is a phrase that must be
recognized Instantly as pertinent to J.
Plerpont Morgan. The vogue of that
financier has become International. His
namo has even been made to contribute
a verb to the English vocabulary, since
"to Morganlzo" has become in financial
vernacular tho synonym of vast combi
nations of capital for the "contral of trans
portation by land and by sea. This
American financier presents costly tapes
tries to adorn the coronation of Edward
VII In Westminster Abbey: and on an
other day ho hobnobs with Emperor
William of Germany on tho imperial
yacht In the harbor of Kiel. During his
Summer cruise In the Mediterranean his
Corsair may make amicable- capture as
his guests of many another crowned head.
But after all there Is nothing new about
this.
Antonlus Fugger was the plebeian name
that became ennobled because of this
singular union of Industry, economy,
liberality and breadth of view. Antonlus
and his brother Ralmond extended their
commercial relations far beyond Ger
many, even, it is recorded, "to all parts
of tho civilized world." It was in 15S0
when tho great monarch Charles V was
splendidly entertained at tho house of
Antonlus Fugger, In Welnmarkt of Augs
burg. Tradition says that tho hoppltable
financier astonished tho Emperor by
using an imperial bond, due to him, as a
taper for lighting a firo of clnnamen. It
may bo conjectured that tho flaming
parchment gave forth incense even more
Agreeable to tho imperial nostrils than
the perfume of tho fragrant wood that it
served to kindle.
Another financial anecdote relating to
this mediaeval -financier Is that Charles
V, when tho accounts of tho treasury of
France wero exhibited to him, remarked:
"There's a linen' "weaver in Augsburg who
could pay all of this." Whether that bo
true or not, it is recorded history that
Charles V mado over to these brothers
the mortgaged estate of KIrchberg and
Weissenhorn, created them counts and in
vested them with tho privileges of prince
ly rank. They loaned tho Emperor
money to defray the cost of an expe
dition against tho pirates of Algiers in
1535; and in return ho granted them tho
privilege of Issuing a gold arid silx-er
coinage of their own. It does not appear
what ratio these private financiers main
tained in regulating their bimetallic ex
ercise of a great public franchise, usually
regarded as an exclusive right of sov
ereignty. But the brothers must literally
have "coined money," for the estate of
Antonlus, when he died. In 1560. Included

THE PATRICIAN NOSE-
Influences Which Render It a Prod
uct of Culture.
Blackwood's Magazine.
Tho molding influences which render
the patrician nose to some extent a prod
uct ot culture seem mainly traceable to
a close association which ex!nt hotn-con
certain muscles attached to the more flex
ible parts ot the nose than those in the
Immediate neighborhood. Nowhere Is the
lasting mark of dominant mental habits
more plainly seen than In the muscles
about tho mouth. They are continually
In action when we exercise the will
either In self-control or In attempts to
contrbl other men or things and every
time they come into play they give a
chastening tug at our noses.
Finally, It may be said that for the
maintenance of a patrican noso at its
best a well-balanced mind Is almost as
necersary as carefulness in outward be
havior. Its chastity of tint and outline
is endangered not only by high living and
low thinking, but also by the habitual and
unrestrained Indulgence of emotions gen
erally deemed innocent, and even laudai
ble. These, through, their strange second
ary influence upon the nerves which regu
late the circulation and nutrition of the
skin of the face, are quite capable of in
ducing a certain coarseness of expression
curiously akin to that Induced by indul
gence In vicious pleasures. Herein, per
haps, may be found some sort of crude
and general recipe for an aristocratic
nose, which Is offered, in all good faith
but with no absolute warranty to
every one with good powers of mental
assimilation.
There can be no doubt that tho ordinary
plebeian nose, with its somewhat low
bridge, concave profile and wide nostrils,
Is, above all others, the nose which Is
.nroner to mankind. All othpr tvnps nro
developed from It. Even now the whole
numan species, or. whatever race, posses
ses It in early Infancy.
A Cosmopolitan City.

Up to the time of the Prussian-Austrian
war the old fortress of Mayence. of the
German confederation, was beyond doubt
the most cosmopolitan city In the world.
At that time the official language was Ger

NO HOP CONTRACTS
Lane' County Growers Free
From Agreements.
WILL NOT
H ADVANCE
Product of Linn1 Said to Have Been
Sold at 11 Cents, and Somo Sales
nt 10 Cents Crop Is in Fine
Condition.
EUGENE, Aug. 12. (Special corre
spondence.) Lano County hopgrowers
are in a fair way to mako a good pile of
money out of their crops this year. Rob
ert Hays, one of tho best known growers
In tho county, says that, so far as he
knows, not a single crop has been con
tracted, and a prominent dealer declares
that not a contract has been made. The
hops arc In splendid condition and prom
ise a large yield, so that tho growers will
got the full benefit of the high prices. A
normal yield in Lane County is about
4000 bales, and from present indications
this year's crop will equal that amount.
Lane County hopgrowers have always
refrained from selling their hops in ad
vance of picking, and whllo they may
have lost good sales in a few Instances,
they hold to the opinion that one year
with another they tare better by taking
tho chances on a rlso or fall In prices.
Of course, many hop crops are mort
gaged to secure picking money, but the
mortgages leave the growers In a posi
tion to profit by a price that Is high
enough to leave a margin after all ex
penses are paid. Whatever the growers
gain by having their hops free from the
Iron-clod contract which this year holds
so many Oregon crops, Is due to a custom
which is said to have been established by
S. H. Friendly and F. E. Dunn. These
men, it seems, furnish much of the
money that Is borrowed for hop-plcklng
purposes, and they have loaned It upon
other security than contracts. This man
ner of securing picking money was
adopted from the first, and the contract
ing plan has never been known here.
Linn County Hops Sold.
Linn County hops, on the other hand.
are said to be protty generally held un
der contract, and In very few cases was
tho stipulated price ,over 11 cents. Ten
cents takes many Airops. As a conse
quence, the growers In that county see
very little to be happy over Just now.
If the hops suffer no. misfortune between
now and picking time, those who sold at
10 cents will get out with a fair profit
on their year's operations, but when they
read of the net proceeds pocketed by
their brother growers In Lane, they will
be likely to speak harshly of their own
lack of Judgment The contracting sys
tem has always been qulto general in
Linn County.
Yield Xot Unusually Large.
From growers in both Linn and Lane
the Information Is gathered that, al
though tho yield will bo large, it will not
bo unusually so, unless a rain should in
crease the quantity at tho expense of
quality. Except In a very few yards,
which were protected either by hills or
groves of timber, the hops suffered some
damage from tho heavy wind the week
before last. The long arms upon which
the hop burrs grow were whipped about
until tho ends were torn off. Tho injury
from this cause was small, but enough
to be felt In tho ultimate yield. The hot,
dry weather Is also tending toward a
lighter yield than was expected two
weeks ago. But. after theso allowances
havo been niade, growers generally pro
nounce uiu cruu a uukb uuc, uuu euiuaiy
satisfactory as to quantity. The yards
have been taken bettor caro of this sea
son than ex.f$ before, and spraying has
been quite, general, especially in Lane
County.
A few nejv jards are seen in botn Lano
and Linn gguntles, showing that this sec
tion of the state has contributed Its share
toward an Increased acreage, which
should add considerably to tho total hop
crop of the state In 1S03. Inquiry falls to
discover any who contemplate setting out
new yards this coming Winter, but
doubtless many will increaso the size of
tho yards they are now operating.
Not Worried by Prices.
The probable price that must be paid
to hop-pickers is not worrying tho grow
ers in Linn and Lane Counties. It is
quite certain that at the meeting to be
held at Woodburn Thursday the growers
will agree o pay 40 cents. Men who
aro taking an active Interest in the pur
pose of the meeting seem to be of one
mind as to what the prlco should be. and
the determination that will be reached
can almost be announced now as certain.
The meeting will bo. attended principally
by growers of Marlon. PolK. Clackamas
and Yamhill Counties, and as those coun
ties are the heavy crop producers, what
ever price is established there will pre
vail in thl3 section of the Valley also.
It seems to be the general opinion that
the lowland hop yards havo fared better
during the hot weather than the yards
on the uplands. This Is a consequence
of the greater amount of moisture and
probably a richer soil. In neither upland
or bottom yards aro there Hco enough
to cause any alarm, and growers feel
that there Is little danger of Injury from
that source this Beason. Hot weather
and thorough spraying have killed off
the vermin, and whllo a few llco can be
found In all yards, their numbers aro
very small. A. w. P.
Will Pay Fifty Cents.
CORVALLIS. Or., Aug. 12. (Speclal.)
A. P. Bonsay. of Buena Vista, Is engag
ing hop-pickers at 50 cents per box. His
yard employs 100 pickers. He Is the only

THE HARP OF JUBAL.
Ancient Musician, Descended From
Cain and Dvrelt In Nod.
Shanghai Mercury.
Music in the ancient world began with
Jubal. who became the father of all
those who handle the klnnor. or harp, and
gugor, organ. He is said to have been
descended from Cain, who went away
from the presence of the Lord and dwelt
In the land of Nod on the east of Eden;
We may think of Cain as living east
ward of Babylonia, which was called
Eden, the pleasant land, and was remark
able for the richness and beauty of the
vegetation.
Music has a self-sustaining power which
has taken and kept Its place among all
nations. They have stringed Instruments
and organs of various forms and sizes
constructed of pipes in a manner simple
or complex. Jubal's harp would be a sort
of lyre or lute. It has been supposed that
he took the Idea from the empty shell of
a tortoise which he one day found having
three sinews stretched across the open'
ing. From this rough beginning he is
thought to have made a tentative kind of
harp. Men in various parts of the world
would invent the shepherd's pipe, the
drum and the cymbal.
A Chinese poet sings in the following
manner the praise of the harp, a favorite
of the Chinese: "From my youth," he
wrote in tho Han period, "I was fond of
music and practiced it when I grew up.
The world has Its ups and downs, but
this la an eternal delight. Tastes and
odors may not always please, but of the
harp I never tire, for music draws out the
soul, trains the Judgment, equalizes the
passions and regulates tho will.
"If any one would avoid melancholy
thoughts there is nothing so good as the
harp. It is a companion to the solitary
and solace to the unfortunate. Add the
voice In singing in order to Increase the
effect, and make tho music of the harp
more human. The words of the song add
expressive sentiment to the listener's
aouL"
MANY WALKS TO BE BUILT
Couacll Authorizes Laying of 8102.13
Feet oaToarta and Fifth, Stretc
Since the recent passage of the city or
dinance requiring all sidewalks construct
ed within specified limits to be of cement,
permits for the construction of no less
than 6620 feet of walk have been taken out
at the City Hall. Of this amount, but 50
feet were for wood walks, the remaining
6570 feet being of the artificial stone va
riety. When it Is considered that all
these permits have been taken out In the
short time of four days. It will be seen
tnat citizens are waking at last.
On the morning after the ordinance was
passed by the Council, and before It was
duly signed by the Mayor, a goodly num
ber of persons rushed to the City Engi
neer 3 olllce and secured permits for the
construction of wood walks. As soon as
the ordinance was signed and became a
law, no more board-walk permits were Is
sued, and all who contemplated construc
tion had to provide for a walk of the dur
able kind. Some few still hold Dermlts
for WGoden walks that were Issued some
tlmo ago, but have not yet been used. 1
iiirao can ue useu any time tno noiuer
wishes, but at the Engineer's office it Is
stated that there are very few outstand
ing, and that by the end of the present
week no one within the proscribed limits
will uavo any wood-walk permits left.
rom that time on all walks will be of
stone: A wooden walk may be repaired
once tor a sixth of its original value, but
owners will generally see the advantages
of laying a good walk, and when their at
tention has been called to decayed walks
In front of their property, they wIU build
stone affairs.
Slnco the law Went Into full rTot th
sidewalk Inspectors have been busy around
town, condemning walks that have passed
their usefulness, and compelllnEr the own
ers to lay ptone ones. In addition, there
aro a great many who do not wait for the
authorities to act, but go and get permits
un uKu umi uccuru. or .get tneir. con
tractors to do it. The office forea hns
been very busy filling out theso permits
and notices to repair, and seeing that no
walks aro being laid contrary to the law.
As far as can be ascertained, nothing ot
inis son is Deing aone. thouch the officials
say that no harm will result from their be

WHERE PUTNAM CAMPED.
Relics of Revolutionary War at Red
dlngr, Conn.
New York Tribune.
The heroic deeds of General Israel Put
nam are being recalled and. told many
times over these Summer' days by tho
largo delegations that visit the old camp
at Redding, Conn., where Putnam and
the Continental troop3 he t commanded
were stationed In the Revolutionary War.
Every young American who has ever read
history i3 familiar with, the events in.
which General Putnam figured promi
nently. "Old Put." as ho was some
times called, was a good specimen of the
old continental commander.
The old Putnam camp is a popular place
Just now, and hardly a day- passes that a
gathering ot somo sort does not take
place at the grounds. Among the vis
itors aro thoso coming from all parts of
Connecticut who are Interested in tho
historic features of the place. One vis
itor tho other day remarked: "I hardly
expected to find tho place In such fino
shape. I looked for a rough, rocky and
wild-looking camp, but Instead find a
handsome memorial park, with all of tho
hlstorlo features carefully preserved."
And such Is the fact, for the commis
sions appointed by tho Governor from
tlmo to time to have charge of the camp
have In turn done their duty In trying to
Improve the place and at the same time
not rob It of any of Its hlstorlo features.
Theso commissions have spent tho moneys
well that have been Intrusted to them
in the various appropriations made by
tho General Assembly. Tho grounds wero
never In prettier shape than they were
when the present Camp Commission vis
ited the place recently. The flowers and
foliage looked fresh and bright, and the
walks and drives were In good condition,,
for the keeper and hl3 asslsaants havo
been busy all the Spring.
Am to Soldiers.' Monument.
PORTLAND, Aug. 12. (To the Editor.)
As the discussion as to the design and sit
uation of the proposed monument to our
soldiers Is, I presume, still open. Is it too
lato to suggest that. Instead of putting a
lot ot money Into a mere heroic figure
typifying the heroism of our boys in blue,
and poking It in a side street, where It
would seldom bo seen, why not combine
the useful with the beautiful and erect a
drinking fountain for man and. beast In a
central spot, where it could be enjoyed
by those most In need of Its benefits? I
think our boys would receive many mora
of our thoughts if such a blessing as this
were accorded, even the tribute from a
thirsty wayfarer or the more humble grati
tude of a tired horse or thirsty dog wero
far better than a lump of bronze or even
of gold, fulfilling no better destiny than
tho occupancy of space. Two drinking
fountains, plain and serviceable, dedicated
to the memory of Oregon's volunteers,
would do more good than one costly and
magnificent column In a park where one
would need a guide to find It. and at tho
same time confer a blessing and a perma
nent benefit on those who most need It.
"We speak for those who cannot speak
for themselves." Please publish this, and
while It may te a little late for action by
the monument committee, still a visit to
the Skldmore fountain In working hours
will toon make plain the benefits bestowed
by such, and may start a movement for
the erection of others.
