"When the tenth Inning drew to a close at Recreation Park this afternoon with Port land on the long end of a 2-to-l score, cordial relations had been smashed to smithereens "between Uncle Henry's hired hands and one Reuben Levy. The cause of the outburst was a ruling In the last half of the tenth. Shay's error helped to break the deadlock In the flrst half of the tenth. Then Phil Nadeau hobbled under a long fly from Delmas and proceeded to let It slip through his fingers. Delmas brought up safe and sound at the middle sack. Zearfoss followed instructions and bunted, the ball taking a high bound to Shields, who made a play for Delmas at third. Xvy said that the runner was out and a windy debate followed, during which the ball was passed over to Free man and Ievy called Zearfoss out. No one could have asked to see a cleaner game than this particular show for the flrst nine Innings . The Webfooters showed in front in the Initial inning on a gift to Anderson, Nadeau's Infield out and Blake's single.. San Francisco tied the knot again in the second. After two were out Pabst hit and stole and Zearfoss whipped a single to right. Blake had the ball homo in time for a put-out, but Shea fumbled and Pabst slid over the pan. There was little doing in the base-hit In dustry after that. Shields and Whalen pitched steady, effective ball and some neat plays by Irwin, Blake and Anderson nerved to keep Interest at boiling pitch. Krug opened the fourth with a three bagger, but expired at the plate on Pabst's tap to Francis. Then came Shay's slip in the tenth. Van Buren bunted and Ander son rapped a safety over third base that turned the tide. The score: SAX FRANCISCO. AB. R, H. PO. A. E.

As Early as 1424 Game Was Subject of Criticism. Professor W. L. Phelps, of Yale, has been making an exhaustive study of an cient football, and, according to the Yale Alumni "Weekly, he has located the flrst kick against the game. Professor Phelps wrote of his investigation an article for The Independent. He found that football was flrst protested In England in the 14th century, and at that time these ancient enemies raised a howl about the roughness of the sport. It was in 1424 that the order went out: "The King forblddes that na man play at the fut ball under the payne death." The most remarkable crltlclsn of the game Professor Phelps found In the "Anatomie jof Abuses" (15S3) by Philip Stubbs. a Puritan of the Puritans. The paragraph is quoted from the Indepen dent: Tor as concerning football playing I "Won. Jjot Ixjs Angeles - .117 72 Sacramento ..... .. 0" 07 Seattle - 02 02 San Francisco ...

Captain Barneson Beats Out Blood-Money Men. the SAN FRANCISCO. Nov. 5. The sailor trust In this port has been disrupted and deep-seacrews are now being shipped without blood money tax of $30 per head. Some time ago the sailor boarding-house keepers formed a combination, which ex acted a bonus of $30 per sailor. The chief factor in the breaking up of the combine was Captain John Barneson, ex-superintendent of the transport service, who is now the local agent for a number of British shipowners. He recently had two ships read' for sea. "While trying to get crews, he encountered the combine, which demanded a bonus of $30 per man. He refused and was told he would be forced to pay $35 later and more if he still delayed. Barneson sought the assistance of Wil liam Swears, who supplies crews for the Pacific Mail and other steamship com panies. Swears quickly secured men for Barneson, and the combine, seeing defeat ahead, covertly sent some of their own sean.en to be shipped. Swears has now charge of the shipping- of foreign crews and for the time being blood money is abolished. Funeral of Judge Estee. SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 5. The remains of Morris M.

Mere man is a novico at smuggling. It requires a smart woman to do the trick and throw dust in Uncle Samuel's eyes. Our American unfortunate, after reciting all the details of his adventure, was thus taken to task by his better seven-eighths: "Of course! You dear, stupid old dunce. Why on earth didn't you have the drawn work washed before you lefjt Mexico?" "Washed? What for? What good would that have done?" "Thrown the customs officers off the track, silly. With the new work in your possession, you were bringing In merchantable articles, there fore dutiable. Had they been washed they would not have been merchantable, therefore not dutiable. Hereafter when ever you smuggle linens or laces have 1 thera Trashed." ( TAKEN FROM GUTTER Osborne's Voice Won Him Education and Standing. STRANGE FINANCIAL METHODS Ex-Minister's Suit for Divorce From His Wife Brings Up Some of His Back Record In This State, INDEPENDENCE, Or., Nov. 5. (Spe claL) A San Francisco dispatch says that G. Howard Osborne, now of Cali fornia, had applied for a divorce from his wife, basing as his grounds infidelity. The residents here were well acquainted with Mrs. Osborne, and are much surprised at the charges preferred by the retired min ister. Mrs. Osborne did tho menial labor for the family while hero, and was much pitied by the people here. She was In England much higher in the social world than was Osborne. His early history shows him to have been a vagabond in the streets of London. Rescued when a child, he was educated and trained for the ministry. His first services as a min ister were in the slums, where he sang and helped in redeeming the fallen. Osborne was taken up mainly on ac count of his excellent musical talent and almost perfect voice, and was given a thorough Instruction in music. When he married a woman who was much above him socially he was taken Into a better set and became more Influential. His career in Canada was very check ered, and he left there and came to Ore gon, where he was in Portland for some time, after which he moved to Independ ence, and had the charge here of tho Methodist Church. Tho duties of this im mediate district Included Buena "Vista and other small towns. While here as a pastor of the church he borrowed sums of money from several persons, and gave mortgages upon a quantity of personal property of every description, he then went on a lecturing tour of the state tor the workmen, and covered a considerable territoryt and fin ished a contract of something like six or eight months' duration, working on a sal ary of from $100 to $150 per month. During this time he sold his mortgaged property to some four or five of the mem bers of the Methodist Church here. The property was afterward attached and ex ecution Issued upon the same and sold to cover the mortgage, and the church peo ple who bought the property In the first, instance reaeemea most or. tne same at the second sale. He also took a sum of money that was given him by the Buena Vista church to pay a debt that was owed to Frazer & Rice, a hardware firm of this city, and In place of paying the bill he appropriated the money to his own use, and never liquidated the bill. Osborne has outstanding obligations all over the town in sums running from $25 to $300. The officers of the church In this district state jthat his papers were forger ies, and that he was never ordained as minister for the Methodist, falh. Ho made an endeavor, and was planning at the time he was here to jump the Method ist ministry and enter tho Episcopal church. But his record was exposed to the officers at Portland, and he was not accepted. For a considerable time after the mort gaged property had been sold he kept himself concealed, and a warrant for his arrest was sworn to and In tho hands of the Prosecuting Attorney of Polk County, and J. H. Moran, Constable of this dis trict, endeavored to reach him, but when next he was heard of he was In Califor nia, where it was stated that he had pre pared to enter a theological school for the purpose of entering the Episcop'al church. Those who have heard from him since ho arrived in California say that his plans for entering the Episcopal church were thwarted, and that he was figuring on some other professlon'at the time. Osborne was one of the few good speakers which it Is the privilege of coun try towns to have, and his services were always instructive, his singing unexcelled, and be was a bright man in every respect.

' MAKING PLANS FOR FAIR YEAR Lewis and Clark Exposition and Port land Will Be Advertised by Play ing of Team Composed of Stars From Big Leagues. President Prael, of the Portland Base ball Association, will today name the committee that will make an effort to bring the annual meeting of the Pacific Coast League to Portland. It will be the duty of this committee to place itself In communication with the different mag nates of, the Coast League and extend them an invitation to hold the meeting here. Mique Fisher, Henry Harris and Teddy Goodman, of the San Francisco team, ,have expressed their willingness to name Portland as the place of meet ing. Peto Lohman and Ewing of the Oakland team also favor Portland. Mor ley may have some objection and Seattle, of course, would like to have the meeting held In that burg, but Inasmuch as the local magnates were flrst to take up the matter of having the Coast magnates meet In the North,the city's claim will be given flrst consideration. As soon as it Is determined that the league is to meet In Portland, plans for caring for the visitors will be commenced. The local officers will quarter the league magnates at tho Portland Hotel and at this place the league business will be conducted. One of the main purposes of bringing the league meeting North Is to take Tacoma Into the fold, and one of the things which this committee will arrange will be a trip of the magnates to Ta coma. Certain business men of Tacoma are very anxious that Tacoma be repre sented in tho Pacific Coast League and a trip to that city by the magnates would soon determine the question. There Is no question about Tacoma being a good baseball town, for the men behind the game there are fighters, and. If they had a team in the Pacific Coast League, It would be one of the best that money could get together. When Tacoma with drew Its team from the Pacific National League It was not for financial reasons. The owners there simply were tired of getting the short end ot the deal at the hands of Lucas. The team was kept to gether as long a3 It was making money, but the Tacoma magnates knew that If tho team was sent south. It would drop several thousand dollars without any chance of getting It back, so they decid ed to quit while they wero even. Fisher Is anxious to get hold of tho Tacoma franchise. He has had the cour age to tell the truth about the support the Sacramento fans have given his team, and for his truth-telling he has been roundly scored. Fisher is one of the best town 'advertisers in the Pacific Coast League, or In any other league for that matter. He Is a baseball magnate that Is constantly before the public and one that the public never tires of reading about If the people of Sacramento had paid by the Inch for the advertising that Mique Fisher has given that town they would find themselves out of pocket at least $10,000. He has come out flatfooted and declared himself about his plans relative to Sacramento and his keeping his team there next season. This Cali fornia city may wake up and. keep Fisher; if it does not Tacoma would do well to secure him as manager. Tho directors of the Portland baseball club are certainly a tireless bunch. Al ready the plans for tho 1904- campaign have been mapped out Money Is not to stand in the way of their securing a bang-up ball team for next season. Not only have they settled -on this point but they are laying plans for the season of 1905, and during the Lewis and Clark Fair It Is their intention to place In Portland an all-star baseball aggrega tion. The business men who are behind tho affairs of the club all know tbe value of printer's ink and they know that noth ing advertises a town like a winning baseball team. What they Intend to do Is this. Just as soon as the season of 1S04 closes, there will be a general raid on the star players of both the American and National Leagues. Pitchers and other players whose names are on the lips of every fan throughout tho East will be imported to Portland, thus compelling all of the Eastern papers to keep the name of the city of Portland before the people that the fans may keep track of the players. This may seem like a dream of a dope fiend, but It's not for at a lunch around which sat a dozen business men, some of whom do not own a dollar's worth of stock in the Browns, the matter was earnestly discussed. All agreed that a winning ball team composed of half a dozen players, head-liners in the major leagues, would do more to advertise Portland, and tho Lewis and Clark Fair than almost any other means of adver tising. The Idea of advertising the Fair through the means of a baseball team Is that of a business man who Is connected with one of the largest lumber mills in this section of the country. This gentleman is a great fan and has followed the for tunes of the Browns with considerable interest The future of tho Browns was under discussion when he told what he thought ought to be done In a baseball way during the Fair. Those who lis tened to his scheme were enthusiastic over the Idea and, although the Fair is about a year and a half away, it is nono too early to set the plans In motion. The matter will be laid before the meeting of the directors next month. AT THE HOTELS. THE PORTLAND. A K Grant and wife.

And the dealer who made this remark is an honest man. When a purchaser calls for "rubber heels" the shoeman cannot be called dis honest because ho supplies the ones that give him ttfe most profit He is in business to make money. The buyer merely cheats himself. O'Sulllvan's are the highest cost rubber heels a dealer can buy, yet he charges his friends no more on that account they wouldn't stand it 35c pair Is the schedule price. If you want new rubber for your money say O'Sulllvan's. In localities where they cannot be had of dealers send to the O Sullivan Rubber Co., Lowell, Mass. r "N THE WASHINGTON SEATTLE THE SCENIC HOTEL , OF THE WORLD This magnificent Tourist Hotel Is Seattle's most prominent architectural feature being situated upon the high est point of land in the down-town district 300 feet above sea level.
