THE MORNING QREGOHIAS, TUESDAY, HAY 12, 1503. READY FQR THE FRAY ACUTE MHSESHH Tracey and Gaps Trained to the Hour. CHAMPION IS THE. FAVORITE Tracer Backers . Are Hunting: for Odds Money- Flows in From Ontsido Citlesv to Bet on Gans, lO to 8. Jfever before in tho history of Portland has such interest been taken in a boxing contest as is shown in the Tracey-Gans match, -which takes place at the Exposi tion building tomorrow night. Never be fore have two men taken such pains and gone through such a thorough course of training to fit themselves for battle. Every artifice known to the profeslsonal trainer and athlete has been used in the develop ment of the muscles and wind of the prin cipals. The Pastime Club and its managers, Messrs. Day and Grant, bave spared neither time nor money in making this the first appearance of a bona fide world's champion in a 20-round bout a success; and to them belongs the credit of bring ing Portland to the front as one of the leading sporting cities in the United States. Fight-followers In all the leading cities in the Northwest have cars chartered to bring them to the ringside tomorrow night, and when the large local advance tale up to this time Is taken Into con sideration, it is certain that there will not be a vacant seat in the vast arena. Blnce the announcement has been defi nitely made that Eddie Graney. one of the world's leading referees, will officiate at the contest, betting has, taken a lively turn, with Tracey's followers looking for odds, though why they should Is a mys tery, as the local man stands second to none as a ring general and "has a wallop that will land the long end of the money any time it connects with the spot. Already about ?M00 has been placed on the outcome of the battle at various odds. Last night the Portland Club received a commission of $500 to be bet on Gans at 10 to 8, which at this stage eeems to be the prevailing odds. Considering the early betting it Is estimated that more money will be bet on this mill than any other fight ever held In the city. All day yes terday there was plenty of Tracey money in sight, but backers of the local fighter are holding out for better odds. Another commission of $1000 Is coming from Se attle. The club also received a telegram from Butte, where Gans Is to fight soon, stating that about $500 would be sent to the city, Most of the out-of-town money la sent to be placed on Gans. Local followers of the game well re member the rattling 15-round draw that Jimmy Rellly and George Memsic boxed as preliminary to the Britt-O'Keefe fight, and the dissatisfaction caused by the de cision, and are congratulating themselves on the opportunity presented them of see ing the boys come together again to set tle for good and all which is the better man. They, 'like the principals, are trained to the minute, and say their for mer contest will be as a draft horse com pared with n Kentucky Derby-winner when they meet tomorrow evening. Corbett Taken Hard Dicrclse. SAN FRANCISCO, May 1L James J. Cgrbett visited the Olympic Club today, and, after considerable vigorous exercise, boxed a few long rounds with Yank Kenny, his sparring partner.

The report received in this city that Bob Fltzslm mons had agreed to meet either Marvin Hart or Jack Root in this city, before the Yosemlte Club, is discredited in athletic circles here.

COLUMBIA BEATS HILL. University Heavy-Hitters Too Mncli for Academy Boys. The Hill Military Academy and Colum lba University baseball nines crossed bats for the second time on Multnomah Field yesterday afternoon. The Hill boys trot ted on to the diamond with a determina tion to win. They had fire in their eyes, and Van Houten, their pitcher, threw the first ball with such speed that Gleason, Columbia's twlrler, simply touched the ball and away it went for a base hit. Hits were bunched In succession by Columbia, Gleason, Fox, the Carmodys and Cullen scoring. Gleason pitched a remarkable game. He retired the military boys in order, and once again the Columlba sluggers came to the bat for two more runs. -Hill did the best work In the second inning. They found Gleason for five hits and as many runs, but were it not for bad errors made by Columbia Hill would have scored an other gooso egg for the inning. Hill never filled the base again. Gleason's keen eye and steady hand allowed none of the Hill heavy hitters to see home, once they ar rived by mistake at first. Columbia, with the exception of the second inning, played a splendid game, and gives evidence of having a first-class chance for the college championship. Columbia's players batted well and safely. Miller, Redmond. Cullen and Fox distinguished themselves by sev eral long hits. Tho feature of the game was a three-base bit by J. Carmody. Co lumbia scored until the eighth, when the nine retired with a total of IS runs. Hill failed to score in the ninth, and Columbia won, 18 to 5. Hill and Columbia have each scored one game, and the next game will be watched with interest. The line-up: Columbia. U. Position. H. M. A.

TVed Houlseman. a crack outfielder, has boon signed by the Brown management and will play in the game this afternoon. Houlseman comes to the Browns from Kansas City, but prior to playing In Kan-' sas he has been playing with the Southern League. He Is an outfielder of rare abil ity and has quite a record as a sticker. Henry Harris, who controls the destinies of tho Saints, has been trying to get Houlseman for two years, but failed. "When Harris learned that Manager Vig neux was after him he spoke In very high terms of this man's playing. Another change in the Browns which the fans will be surprised to hear is that Charley Zlnssar has been released in order that Parke "Wilson could sign him to play right field. Zlnssar has been released conditionally, the Brown management re taining the right to call for his services after the season closes. Zlnssar Is one of the most faithful ballplayers In the coun try. No player tried harder to make good as shortstop than did Zlnssar. He Is a sticker of considerable ability, but his forte Is n the outfield. Parke "Wilson haa been after Zlnssar for some time, but Vigneux would not consent to his release until he could sign another man. The signing of Houlseman does not mean any change in the lineup of the Browns. Smith, who has been In the outfield, Is a pitcher, and was only played In that posi tion until a good man could be signed for that place. Smith will remain with the team,. and in addition to being a utility man will become one of the pitching staff. AMERICAN LEAGUE. Standing; of the Clubs. "Won. Lost P.C.

Challenger Has a Lead of About Four Miles at the End of the "Windward Tarn. GOUROCK. Scotland, May 11. Sham rock Ill's windward work today in a trial with the old challenger was little short of marvelous, and even more so was the manner In which she carried away while going about. Sailing on the weather bow of the old boat, she practically kept pace with her opponent, with light winds and through "smooth water. Shamrock III easily passed tho older boat In the steadier breeze. Below Dun con the boats started afresh on a beat to windward, and the challenger made better work than she had yet shown. In half an hour of fair sailing weather and fluWes she left Shamrock I about a quarter of a mile behind. As the wind strengthened Shamrock III further improved her position. At the end of the windward turn the challenger had a lead of about four miles, which was consid ered to be an extraordinarily brilliant performance, even allowing for the ag gregate of the wind. As the yachts were too far apart to make racing interesting the challenger put about and set her spinnaker for a run back. Shamrock I also turned, j and, picking up a good breeze, she led the way up the Firth at a fine pace. The . yachts then rejoined one another, fin-1 ishlng the day's work with a strong reach up the Firth, In a fresh nine-knot ! breeze. At the start Shamrock I was to windward, on the weather bow of the challenger, but tho latter caught up and passed her, going clear through her lee, reaching home off the Gourock Yacht Clubhouse a minute and 35 seconds ahead. Don't Walk Through Snow. PORTLAND, May IL (To the Editor. In yesterday's Issue of The Oregonlan the following statement Is made In the article about the Bohemia mines: That on tha completion of the new electric tram rail road "the men can ride to work In ten minutes, Instead of wading several miles in soft snow, as they do now." The lat ter clause as to the men wading through the snow is unfortunately misleading and inasmuch as It should refer to the former method of conducting the work before the present management began to operate the mines.

Every "Sufferer WUI Rccegnlre tha Symptoms Described by Miss Rel ink, a Former Sufferer. Healthy and rosy-cheeked, looking as; though she had never known a, sick day; Miss Helen " Holing has nevertheless passed through intense suffering. To a reporter who called at her home, No. 67 South Washington street, Colum bus, O., she said: Two years ago I .had an attack of. acute indigestion, accompanied by nerv ous troubles and dizzy spells. I lost in weight, my complexion became pale and sallow, slight exertion made me breathe hard, and I could not walk any distance without getting all tired out I became alarmed and sought medical aid, but the doctors gave me no lasting- benefit and I continued to grow worse. My stomach could not digest even the sim plest and most wholesome food, and dieting did pot seem to help me. Ana was so tired and worn out all the while. It was Dr. Williams' Pink Pill3 for Pale People that cured me. I read an article somewhere telling- what these pills had done, and I began taking them. Relief came almost immediately. I kept on taking them, and my color came back, I could eat again with rel ish and with no fear of distressing con sequences. 1 began to reel strong ana active, and in a short time was restored to perfect health." What Dr. Williams Pink Pills for Pale People did for Miss Rollng they will do for others similarly afflicted, as is proved by thousands of cases on file. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills cure stomach trouble by their tonic action, building up the digestive organs and enabling" them to do the work that Nature in tended them to do. Artificial ferments and predlgested foods weaken the stom ach in many cases. Medicines should not do the stomach's work, but should put It In condition to perform its natu ral functions.

Portland people are surprised at the work being done by "The Little Con queror." Public expression on the sub ject brings the matter frequently before the people. Atx first there were many doubters; and why not? So many. claims of a similar nature have been mde with little or no backing excepting the word of some stranger residing in a far-away-place; this evidence was accepted for lack of better. Not necessary to accept any longer. All sufferers from any kidney 111 can find plenty of local Indorsement for a remedy that will cure them. Surely the wonderful work of Doan's Kidney Pills right here at home -is proof sufficient to satisfy any skeptic Read the expression of one citizen on the subject: J. Blake, whose place of residence Is' 523 Market street, 'says: "I bought sev eral boxes of Doan's Kidney Pills from the Laue-Davls Drug Company's store, corner of Yamhill and Third streets, and I scarcely think If the first had not proved satisfactory that I would have tried" the second or third. I have used in my time almost everything said to be a cure for weakened or overexcited kidneys- and blad der, but'nothlng ever gave me the satis faction I received from Doan's Kidney Pills. They are easy to take, have no effect upon the stomach or bowels, and act directly on the kidneys, and I thor oughly believe from the results I re ceived and also from observation that Doan's Kidney Pills are one preparation on the market which acts directly as rep resented."
