Portland Ready for Today's
Diamond Battle.
CRIPPLES AGAIN IN THE GAME
Butler Will Pitch, on Opening: Day
of the Pacific Coaat League
Season Against Husk
Harris' Saints.
SAN FRANCISCO, March 25. (Staff cor
respondence.) If confidence counts for
anything, the Portland Browns "will to
morrow -win the opening game from Hank
Harris' Saints. The team to a man has
rounded out In splendid shape. The hurts
and sprains, from which several of the
players have been suffering, seem to have
disappeared with their coming to the Bay
City, and each man is as full of enthusi
asm as a prizefighter Is full of fight.
Browns Show Fine Form.
Early this morning Captain Vlgneux
took his matchless bunch of ball tossers
out to Eighth and Harrison streets. The
biff of the bat and the swish of the ball
as It tore Its way through tho grass soon
brought out several hundred of the faith
ful, who watched with genuine eagerness
the practice of the men. With eyes that
years of ball watching have made criti
cal, they watched the individual wrirk j3f
each man, and almost to a man they de
cided that if the Saints won It would be
on account of the "Stonewall" Infield.
And this is so, for If the Browns, who
are all great stickers as their work
showed them to be, can plant the ball out
of reach of Mr. Harris Infield, they can
win hands down. If there Is anything in
sizing up the capabilities of two teams
by watching them at practice, then the
Portlanders have nothing to fear at the
hands of San Francisco ball swatters.
In the outfield the Browns showed fas
ter and steadier work. At the bat they
seemed stronger and surer in place hit
ting, and in the infield, where the local
fans seem to think they outshine any
team in the league, nothing could be noted
that would Indicate they had tomorrow's
game wrapped up and delivered tied.
Saints Xot to Be Sneered At.
While this is true, the Saints arc not a
crew that can be sneered at. They are
a fast lot, and if Sammy Vlgneux wins,
as he says that he will without any ifs
or buts, he will have to play ball from
the first cry of the umpire. The Individ
ual interest that the Browns are taking
In each other has the markings of suc
cess. This has brought the team up to a
point of almost perfect team work, In
spite of tho fact that rain has Interfered
greatly with the practice. The signals
have been rehearsed, so that there is lit
tle danger of their getting grounded and
causing trouble.
During tho last couple of days the men
have worked like dock wallopers, and their
arms and legs have lost their stiffness,
so that every man on the team .can go id
tomorrow and .playbang, tjp, -baseball rifj
he is needed. Even-Anderson, who is but
a few days out of. the hospital, took a lit
tle light work in the field today. Andy
Informed Captain Vlgneux after he had
romped about the diamond for half an
hour that he would be in the game in less
than a week.
Captain Vlgneux has kept his eagle eye
on his pitching staff, and he has decided
upon Butler as the slab artist for the
opening day. Engle will be held In re
servo and will be the second adminis
trator of shoots and curves. Both men
have speed to burn. They have also one
of the most bewitching and alluring slow
balls that will sure bait many of the un
wary Saints.
Today's Llnc-Up.
The line-up of the team as they will ap
pear at the bat Is as follows: Schmeer,
shortstop; Van Buren, center field; Smith,
left flold; Andrews, third base; Shaffer,
first base; ZInser, second base, and Vlg
neux, catcher. Against them Harris will
pit his- star twirler, "Hodson, with Whalen
as second choice.
Henry Harris, with his characteristic
manner of producing good baseball with
little fuss and feathers, is going to limit
his parade to ball players only. The
parade will leave the Park at 1:S0, and.
accompanied by the best band In San
Francisco, the players In full uniform, will
be driven through the principal streets
of the city, then back to the grounds. At
3:30 the first ball will be pitched over tho
plate, and the baseball season of the Pa
clfic Coast League, for 1903, will open.
At Los Angeles, Park Wilson's fiiwashes
and Sam Morley's star Importations will
do likewise. At Sacramento, Pete Loh
man will undo his long-promised bunch
of surprises and send them against Mike
Fisher's chickens that he has been guard
lng with a shotgun and several other Im
plements of war. So, taking It all In all.
March 26 will long be remembered In base
ball history on the Pacific Coast.
Cnn't Shnkc Chiles.
The Browns seem to be unable to shake
Pleroe Chiles. This discarded player hov
ers about the men like a vulture, and begs
fcr dimes and Quarters until the players
have become thoroughly sick and dis
gusted with him. He is shunned and he
knows it, but he is without shame and

"Wonderland. 1503," a book of 112 pages,
from the office of Charles S. Fee, general
passenger agent of the Northern Pacific

yesterday. It surpasses Its predecessors of

Special subjects treated in this number
are": "The Travels of Father Hennepin,

After Davis had been in jail for some
time the second pawnbroker put in an
appearance.
"James -Davis is here?" asked Carrie
Myers rushing Into the station. "What Is
his ball?" This was about 3:30, and at 6
o'clock she was still trying to make ar
rangements to have the prisoner bailed
out.
"Three hundred dollars cash," she was
told, but appeared with a check for the
amount instead. The check was not ac
cepted, and she then decided that she
would prefer to give paper ball, and In
stituted a search for Judge Hogue. It
was late in the evening before the prisoner
was finally turned free.

NEGRO PAWNS A RING.
Becanie It Change From Diamond
to Paste, James Davis Is Arretted.
A diamond ring, a colored man, twp
pawnbrokers, and $123 formed the basis
of an Interesting case that the detectives
were working on yesterday afternoon.
James Davis, the colored man, was ar
rested, charged with the larceny of 5125.
The proprietor of the Metropolitan pawn
shop, C9 Third street, was the first pawn
broKer In the case, and it was he that
was out the 5125. Carrie Myers was the
second pawnbroker In the case, and she
was concerned In getting ball for the col
ored man.
The diamond ring played the part of
"now you see It; now you don't," and It
was by using it that the negro obtained
the money.
The man who runs the Metropolitan
pawnship Is an old New Yorker, and
boasts that no Imitation diamond can be
made that will fool him
evening. The chairman, Mr. E. D. Can
hedy, called the meeting to order, and
after several stirring speeches, a com
mittee, consisting of Messrs. J. C. Logan.
Howard Sproull, A.D. Griffin, C. A. Hit

The opening" of the Osaka Exposltlon-is
the subject of a letter from Colonel H. E.
Dosch. special commissioner from the
Lewis and Clark Exposition. Colonel
Dosch writes under date of March 2 In a
highly entertaining manner. The opening
was on March L He describes It as fol
lows: "Agreeable with the original plan, the
Fifth National Industrial Exposition was
opened in this city yesterday (Sunday) un
der most favorable conditions. Early In
the morning the city was enveloped In a
dense fog, which, however, drifted seaward
before the vast crowds took up their
march exposltlonward, and. the sun shed
his grateful rays over alL
"Long before the time set for the ceremonies-all
the streets and avenues leading
to the exposition were crowded with peo
ple, and It was with great difficulty that
our kuru-ma-ya could push their, way
through.
"All the officials, commissioners, city,
county and state dignitaries gradually as
sembled in the large ceremonial hall, and
promptly at 10 o'clock Prince Kanin
stepped upon the platform and delivered
what Is said to be an excellent address,
which was listened to in profound silence,
the audience standing. At the close the
Prince simply bowed, and, Instead of
deafening applause such as would have
followed our American orator, all present
bowed low down and remained in that at
titude until the Prince had retired, whlch
ls the highest compliment thf.t can be paid
to any one. We were then handed souve
nir boxes containing choice Japanese can
dies, handkerchiefs and plans of the ex
position, and Invited to Inspect the many
buildings, wnich was dene in a body. I
soon drifted away, as I was more Inter
ested in the vast crowd outside, and
worked my way to the grand entrance
gate. This gate faces over a large square
of possibly ten acres, from which radiate
the streets toward the city. This was
congested with an immense mass of people
for a mile or more; standing as I did on a
little elevation, I beheld a sea of expectant
faces with their ears primed to the midday
gun, the signal for the turnstiles to com
mence their unceasing click. The moment
the gun wag fired I could behold a wave
of delight pass over the countenances of
these hundreds of thousands of visitors.
The sight was awe-inspiring.
"I expected a grand rush, and feared the
frail gates and fences would be crushed

duty: but I was agreeably disappointed.
Everybody was orderly; no crowding, no
pushing, no Jostling and hollering to get

ing as they handed their admission tickets
to the gatekeepers to punch out for them
to drop into a box as they passed out later
in the day. I stood for three hours watch
ing and admiring" the gentle patience of
these people, and still they were coming.
"When the tlcke.ts were counted It was
found that over 310,000 persons' had paid
the small admission fee of 5 sen (24 cents)
This may seem a small sum to us, but
when you consider that the majority of
Japanese earn only 15 to 20 sen (7 to 10
cents) a day. it is quite a tax even then.
and the administration no doubt had this
in mind when they placed the admission at
that figure. Another reason is to give
them a chance, not to visit the exposition
once, but often, for the sole purpose of
education and study of the advancement
In art, science and manufactures.
"The reason for such a laree attendance
was not because it was Sunday, but be
cause it was the first of the month. But

Taking- Desperate Chances.
It Is true that many contract colds and
recover from them without taking any
precaution or treatment, and a knowledge
of this fact leads others to take their
chances Instead of giving their colds the
needed attention. It should be borne In
mind that every cold weakens the lungs,
lowers the vitality and makes the sys
tem less able to withstand each succeeding
cold ,and paves the way for more serious
disease. Can you afford to take such
desperate chances when Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy, famous for its cures of
colds, can be bad for a trifle? For sale

With true Gaston politeness Davis
bowed In recognition of the courteous
greeting and passed over the ring. A
diamond it was. and of a rare variety.
The money was Immediately counted out
and passed over.
While the money was being counted, the
trick was done. Davis, It seems, had
two rings that looked much alike, except
that the first was a diamond and the sec
ond was not. When the pawnbroker's
back was turned he made a hasty motion,
seized the diamond ring from the counter
where It lay. and left In its place the
cheap one. The pawnbroker had Inspect
ed the ring closely already, and not until
the negro was out of the house with T125
In his pockets did he notice that the
change had been made. As soon as he did
he hurried to the police station and had
the negro arrested.
DavLi is well known about the city, and
the detectives wondered where he had ob
tained possession of a ring of such value
as he had first show, the pawnbroker.
When he was caught he had no ring, and
but 520 of the J125 was left.
"What did you do with the money?"
he "was asked; but he only stammered a
reply:
"I paid debts."
"To whom did you pay any money?"
But the prisoner refused to answer the
question.
"All I want Is to get ball and see my
lawyer." he said. "I am Innocent and I
can prove It."
Putting the many facts together the de
tectives were convinced that Davis must
have had an accomplice. It Is their

of Chicago on November 14. This game,

There Is no safety In a partial cure.
There may be a sense of safety, but with
out the reality.' The patient may believe
himself cured, though constantly drifting'
toward a relapse or a chronic stage. In
all our work, thoroughness Is given Its
due consideration. The new and striking
ly original methods of treatment we have
developed and perfected are more ample
and comprehensive than those commonly
employed. They meet even the most mi
nute details of those ailments to which
they apply, and are readily modified ac
cording to the requirements of Individual
cases. Because our treatment Is ample,
scientific and thorough, our cur.es are
complete and lasting, and our patients
have no relapses. For the same reason
we are usually able to cure in much les3
