LOS ANGELES, Juno 12. (Special.)
In a slugging match that kept the 4000
fans continually howling -with excite
ment, Portland beat Los Angeles today
by 7 to 5. The locals should havo won,
for they had fewer errors and had men
on bases In each Inning; but Portland
killed Newton with hard swats. Francis
bounced one over the right field fence
for a home run in the fifth, scoring Beck
ahead of him. Nadeau led In the bat
ting, but his two doubles were Texas
Leaguers, and ordinary fielding would
have captured both.
With two out In the eighth, Spies hit a
bounder past third, and Nadeau fell
down In going for It. This lucky hit tied
the score, amid great excitement, but
Portland cooked the local ambitions by
falling hard on Newton in the final
round. .

At these games there will be present the
best trackmen in Oregon, and as many

the contestants to make lively sport.
j.nis is a meet ror ciud members; but
this will not exclude a bunch of fast
athletes belonging" to the club now at
Valley colleges. Pacific and the State
Agricultural College have a number of
especially good athletes, some of whom
are certain to go North.
A preliminary meet was held on the
field yesterday morning, Oscar Kerrigan
and George Gammle each takiiig a num
ber of men and trying out. Kerrigan's
team won by 23 to 22. There were sev
eral good events and some surprises.
Herrlott, who has been coming up lately,
tied Oscar Kerrigan In the high jump.
Walter Gearln, the quarter-mller, ran
down Gammle In the sprints, and Bert
Kerrigan Jumped 5 feet 10 In practice,
without forcing himself. If he keeps this
up and his ankle does not ' go back on
him, ho will soon be jumping over six
feet, and he will have that event cinched.
Other men who showed up well were
Edgar Frank In the hurdles, Frohman in
the 100 and 230, Ambrose In the half and
mile, and Wilcox with that 11-foot 7-lnch
vault of his. A new acquisition has come
to the club In O'Connor, who won the
mile at the Columbia Indoor games
hands down. He Is good for about 4:3S
now, and with training he will lower
that considerably In the next few weeks.
Ted Wood Is also showing up well in the
220 and 440. having won the one-lap race
yesterday. Gammle proved himself the
quickest at starting on the sprint by
winning the x5-yard dash.
But from the Valley are the hot ones,
and they wlll.be trying out for the club
team next Saturday. Fletcher. Gates.
Peterson and Gilbert, of Pacific, and
Smlthson and Williams, "who smashed
Pacific in the sprints several weeks ago,
are out for places. Coates Is, of course,
a sure thing and good for about three
firsts.
. Tho greatest rivalry will be between
these athletes, Pacific being anxious to
win back its laurels from O. A. C It
will be their dual meet run over again in
some of the events. Peterson, Smlthson
and Williams will make things lively In
the sprints. They are about on a par,
though the Agricultural College men have
recently done for Peterson. There Is no
doubt that the club will be all right in
tho sprints.
Gilbert is just about capable of defeat

THEY SMELL BLOOD
Portland Lacrosse Players
PIay First-Game
WITH VETERANS OF SEATTLE
Two Portland Players "Disabled in
Fierce Battle, While Home Team
Loses, Being 'Pitted Against
Some of the Best.
It was tho old story of the Chesapeake
and the Shannon over again, so far as the
lacrosse match between the Portland and
Seattle clubs, played yesterday afternoon
on the baseball grounds. Twenty-fourth
and Vaughn streets, Is concerned. The
score was: Seattle 9, Portland 1. The
acting captain of the Portlands was Fred
Lawrence, and he went down to defeat
after a plucky fight, suffering from a bad
smash on his right hand. So much for
historical parallel. Thirteen hundred peo
ple were present, and It Is safe to say
that they enjoyed the first lacrosse game
seen here for over six years.
It was a swift contest, of a semi-professional
brand. At true exciting moments
of the game, and there were many, the
occupants of the bleachers yelled them
selves hoarse with delight. There were
OREGON'S REPRESENTATIVE AT OXFORD UNIVERSITY
as well as Latin.

ships have been awarded University students. Roy Renshaw goes' to Colum
bia, James Gilbert to Columbia, Merrill Hanvllle to the University of Chi
cago, Charles Calne to the Boston School of Technicology and Mr. Densmore
to Oxford. While In the University Densmore was an exceedingly strong
student, being elected president of the associated students and representing
Oregon In oratory.
several lively mix-ups, and when two
players alternately stole and recovered
the ball, there were cries of: "Soak him.
Stick to him, sonny." Harry Wilson, the
"Portland second home, was struck over
the head by Oddy, of Beattle, so fiercely
that the wound had afterward to be
stitched by Dr. Braden." After the sec
ond quarter opened, Lawrence's injured
hand was so swollen that he was re
leased from play. Oddy, whose stick,
struck Wilson, was ruled off play for five
minutes for fouling. To even up the
teams, F. Galen went to the bench for a
rest. Then two Portland men dropped
out for good, as they could not stand the
terrific pace. Their wind was all but
gone.
Yet with it all," tho Portlands made a
creditable appearance for a comparatively
new club In the lacrosse world, and they
are beaten but not disgraced. Several of
them never saw a lacrosse stick until
about one month ago, and the sticks they
all carried were new and the network
-did not give. Consequently, it was dif
ficult" to catch the ball at a swift angle.
Then the Portlands were handicapped by
the sudden absence of their regular field
captain. Major Charles B. McDonell. Up
to the end of last week he directed their
play at practice and he and the players
had agreed on a secret system of sig
nals. However, he was called upon to
attend a funeral, and-his place was taken
by his brother, J. J. McDonell, who
worked his hardest But It was too late
to remove the handicap.- The signals were
too easily understood. Then the Port
lands were plainly nervous, and when
It came to hard "checking," catching the
balljn their lacrosse sticks, or comblna
tlonpasslng, in three cases out of four
they were not in It, with the exception
of Braden and one or two more.
How few people in the grandstand
realized that the Portlands were facing
some of the very best lacrosse players on
this continent? Oddy the Great recently
belonged to one of the greatest lacrosse
clubs In the world, the New Westmin
sters. He accompanied the New West
minsters In their Eastern tour four years
ago, and was recognized everywhere as
a great star player. Mitchell and Gow
played with the Vancouvers, Hartnagel
and Milne with the Victorias, Marshall
with an Ottawa team, Beattle with the
Seaforths, Heard with the Cornwalls,
Hall, Kennedy and the Galer boys with
Toronto teams, and Weber with the Win
nlpegs. Against this array of sturdy Ca
nadian talent, what could learners do?
The Seattles have already defeated Ever
ett by 10 to 1, and Tacoma 4 to 3.
Yet it is Incorrect to assume that la
crosse Is a purely Canadian game- It Is
really an American Indian game, and was
played on this continent by the Ameri
can Indians, under the name of "Bagat
away," long before the geeograpbical
spheres of the United States and Canada
were laid out. In those days, the game
was played with goals one-half mile
apart, and participated in by all the males
of the Indian tribe. An old chronicler
says: "The object of the game seems to
have been the training of warriors for
the war path by cultivating agility and
endurance." , '
As for the game yesterday, Oddy the
Great calmly and quietly prevented ev
erybody from scoring except Harry Wil
son. He allowed Harry to send In one
shot, and then It was all over. Then
Milne and Weber entered Into a contract
that no one except themselves would be
allowed to score, and this Is the reason
the score was not larger. It was first
Mr. Milne and then it was Mr. Weber,
with Mr. Oddy and Mr. Gow on the side!
It is not necessary to give a description
of the game, asr it would be a repetition
of the glories won by those Britishers.
For the Portlands Dr. Braden was the
star, but he was too closely watched to
allow of his scoring. Until he was hurt
Lawrence played welL The Stewart boys
were stalwarts, and C. A. Stewart was a
rock of defense. Harry Wilson was a
tower of strength, and he .was not afraid
to check closely. Roberts and Beckwlth
more than pleased their friends. Minto
should not have been in the game, as he
was suffering from the effects of cold.
How loyal the crowd was to the Port
lands, and how it yelled and applauded
the boys when there was the faintest
chance of scoring! There were too many
fumbles and want of combination play,
however. But the Portlands saw real la
crosse played, and they have learned
their lesson. Some sweetday , They
have the making of a strong dub, and
they will jet beat the Jmaghty Hien from
Seattle.
At last, Messrs. Oddy, M11b, Weber and
Company yawned aad sad: "Well, fel
lows, we've got enoBgh games for one
day. If s about dinner time." So tio more
games were scored, and the crowd went
home. The Nineteenth Regiment Band
from Vancouver Barracks played enjoy

COURTHOUSE BEATS CITY HALL
Fund of $500 Is Raised for John
McLeod.
Mayor Williams did not pitch the first
ball for City Hall in the ball game against
the Courthouse yesterday afternoon at
the Hawthorne-Avenue grounds, but Sam
my Vigneux was umpire, and that -satisfied
the fans who were looking for celeb
rities. The Courthouse nine won by a
score of of 13 to 9. Almost J500' was raised
for 'John McLeod, who was crushed be
tween two freight cars- while crossing
through the Terminal yards some time
ago and whose leg had to be amputated.
There were many old-timers on the field,
such as "Trilby" Rankin and his brother
Jack, "Gene" Welsh and "Fat" Potter,
and others who played the game when
the old "Oaks" served as a diamond. Jack
Rankin was once in the Texas League.
Both teams put up a style of ball that
was little short of atrocious, but some
of the players had not hag a bat In their
hands for years, and their funny attempts
to slide bases and land high flies were
duly appreciated by the crowd. The out
field had grown a young crop of hay and
the fielders slipped on the long grass,
even turning somersaults In their at
tempts to he agile. Potter at second base
was the most interesting; and Elliott,
catching for the City Hall, stopped about
half the balls pitched.
Things went pretty badly for the City
Hall till Crandall was put in the box for
the Courthouse. As his team was far
ahead, the Courthousers claim that he
was told to let the City Hallers pound
the ball, but It did not look that way, and
five were run up on him first crack. La
ter four more came.
Potter was the hero of one double play,
and If he had remembered to throw the
ball would have posed as ,the same In an
other. Three pitchers were needed by
the City Hall to stop the- onslaught. The
most successful of these lasted just one
Inning, when he was taken out" because
the grand stand hadonecto sleep watch
ing the ball from the time it left his
hand till it crossed the plate. He had on
white ducks and a black shirt, and he.
could pitch a fiercely slow ball. It
crawled. It toddled, and became abso
lutely decrepit, but It finally got over
the plate, and there was not a batter who
could send it out of the infield.
The only real ball playing was done
by the brothers Rankin and Swope,
catcher, and Hay, short, for the Court
House. But the crowd was there, and
there was enough doing- to keep it going.
Whether it was good baseball or not did
not matter.

ORDINANCE.
Ice Cream and Cigars Sold Freely,
but Professor Drew Causes Great
Thirst at -Capitol city.
SALEM, Or., June 12. (SpeciaL) Not
withstanding the notice served upon them
yesterday by. Professor Drew, of Willam
ette University, all the cigar stores,
candy shops and Ice cream parlors were
open all day today and were apparently
doing a good business, but every saloon
was closed, apparently.
Everyone is now waiting with Interest
to ee what Professor Drew will do about
it tomorrow. About half the men con
cerned expect to be arrested, the other
half believe the 'whole, matter wilt be
dropped, and Professor Drew, the only
man who knows what will happen, Is
silent
There was a hurried consultation yes
terday afternoon after the letters had
-been received by the proprietors of the
several stores, but no formal meeting was
held. Some of Jhe cigarmen declared at
once that they would keep their places
of business open even If all the rest
closed,' and very soon It was apparent
that no one would shut up shop on the
Sabbath day,
One cigar man was so anxious that his
intentions should be known that he called
up Professor Drew by telephone and In
formed him that if he would come down
town on Sunday he could buy all the
cigars he wanted at from 5 to 50 cents
each.
But Professor Drew's crusade has prov
en a success In one respect Every saloon
In the city Is closed up tight today. Last
Sunday every liquor-selling establishment
was wide open, front doors and back
doors.
Jt was reported last evening that all the
saloons except one would close today, and
that this one would transact business in
order to test the law. If any of them
are open today that fact could not be
learned by a casual inspection from the
outside. All front doors were bolted and
some yrere barricaded with boxes or kegs.
The saloonmen and cigarmen are up
In arms and say that Professor Drew's
action shall cost him his position in Wil
lamette University, where he occupies the
chair of Latin and Greek. While they
do not say that the university Is even
Indirectly concerned In the crusade for
Sunday closing, they declare that the
school, will suffer loss of patronage and
support, by reason of Professor Drew's
course, and they will contribute no more
towards the school or any of Its public
events so long as he is connected with it
The annual meeting of the board of re
gents of the university will be held this
month. While a re-election of Professor
Drew would not necessarily be an in
dorsement "of his course, nor a failure of
re-election a disapproval, the action of
the board will be .watched with interest.
Professor Drew did not consult with
any of the university authorities before
swearing out the warrants for the arrest
of the saloonmen who violated the Sun
day closing act but proceeded solely upor
his right as an American citizen to secure
the punishment of offenders.
The cigarmen and confectioners are re
lying almost entirely upon the belief that
no jury will convict them, though they
also believe that the statute forbidding
the opening of "stores" and "shops" ap
plies only to general stores and not to
places where refreshments are sold.
BODY FOUND IN BOXCAR.
Mystery About the Death of Cook
From Baker City.
BAKER CITY. Or., June 12. (Special.)
Thomas W. Suttle, a restaurant cook, was
found dead I na boxcar on an O. R. &
N. freight train near Weatherby this
morning. The head brakeman saw a man
apparently asleep in a boxcar as. he came
over the train. He entered the car through
the end door thinking he was a tramp
stealing a ride. He tried to awaken the
man, who was laying face down with a
buesy robe wrapped around his head. He
soon discovered that the man was dead.
The brakeman called the rear brake
man and conductor and together they
made a careful examination of" the body.
The man's face was bruised and there was
blood in his mouth and ears. So far as
could be found no bones were broken.
Coroner Snow was notified and he met
the train when- It arrived In the city at 9
o'clock. An Inquest was held, the result
of which was that the deceased came to
his death by some means unknown to the
Jury.
There are- several theories, one is that
the man was murdered in Huntington and
the body thrown In the car; another is
that he- was killed by tramps in the car.
The appearance .of the body seems to in
dicate that death resulted from a fall, as
there Is no evidence of a beating. One leg
Is bruised, also one arm slightly.
The deceased was in this city Friday.
He was a member of the Cooks' and Walt
ers' Union, No. 324, of this city, and holds
a card dated June 7, 1S04, showing that
he was in good standing. He was slightly
known here, having worked a short time
at Granstrom's restaurant in this city. He
was said to be steady and Industrious,
not jglven to drinking. He had formerly
been a sailor.
The officers are making a careful inves
tigation here and at Huntington to obtain
some clew as to the real cause; of death.
When found by the trainmen the man. had
only been dead a short time as the body
was quite warm even when brought to this
city. Suttle is said to have a brother and
sister residing at Eugene.

SISTER'S TRICK
But All Came Out Right.
How a sister played a trick that
brought rosy health to a coffee fiend is
an interesting tale:
"I was a coffee fiend a trembling, nerv
ous, physical wreck yet clinging to the
poison that stole away my strength be
cause for a fleeting moment it stimulated
my weakened powers. I mocked at Pos
tum and would have none of It
"One day my sister, Mrs. U. S. Showal
ter, substituted a cup of crisp, hot Postum
for my morning cup of coffee but did not
tell me what it was. I noticed the rich
ness of It and remarked that the coffee
tasted fine but my sister did not tell me
I was drinking Postum for fear I might
not take any more.
"She kept the secret and kept giving me
Postum instead of coffee until I grew
stronger, more tireless, got a better color
In -my sallow cheeks and a 'Clearness to
my eyes, then she told me of the health
giving, nerVe-strengthenlng life-saver she
had given me In place of my morning
coffee. From that time-1 became a dis
ciple of Postum and no words can do
Justice to the good this cereal drink can
do. I will not try to tell, it for' only after
having used It can one be convinced of its
merits." Name given by Postum Co.,
Battle Creek, Mich.
Ten days trial shows Fostum's power
to rebuild what coffee has destroyed.
There's a reason.
