SAX .FRANCISCO, April 9. (Special.)
Those hot-hitting Seals of Uncle Hank
Harris took the double-header from us
today and also the series. The morning
game was a shine, and the home fans
should throw it out. Bill Esslck started
as the box artist, but he had a stitch In
his side as big as a stitch In a pair of
overalls, and. although he did his best.
he was touched up for Ave hits In the sec
ond Inning that, with a base on balls and
a batter hit by a pitched ball, counted for
six runs.
With this big lead .Jimmy St. Vrain
was sent to the firing line. He started
off well, but he blew up. and before
It was lunch time it was only a question
of how many runs the Seals w:ou!d make.
As it was. they clouted both Eseick and
St. Vrain for a total of 19 hits, strung
through which were a couple of corking
twn-ba carers. Miller, who (pitched the
after-breakfast engagement, was also
lambasted some. Runkle and Schlafly
getting a couple of double sackers, but
thev did not count like those made oy
the Seals. This is enough said about the
morning game, unless I might add that
the baseball that the Giants put up was
about the worst exhibition they gave this
vcar.
The matinee was a case of whitewash,
with James Whalera as the master
painter. This pitcher, the one that the
"gang" calls "Chlmmy De Whale," will
rPT his trimmings soon. With the close of
today's game Whale has pitched 47
Innings without a score being made
against him. and he has five shut-outs
to his credit. The reason I say he will
get his cloutings is because he Is a ro
eu.e-iipjjm juuih x. , " " I
bandmaster. Some day his team-mates
won't be working behind him In such
brilliant fashion as they did in the two
names that he was able to win from
Portland.
Bert Jones pitched for us in the matinee
game. He was a bit wild, but he evened
un his wildness by his steadiness at crit
leal times. For seven innings he held
the Seals safe. In the eighth chapter
"Tub" Wheeler, pitcher, cry-haby. and
come times utility" man, who had taken
Mohler's place at second, hit for two
bases. Spencer's fluke single that bound
ed over JoneB head sent him to third,
and ho scored on Hildebranfi's long fly to
Householder. The second run came home
when Nealon singled
Tuesday Portland will try conclusions

U. OF W. CREW GOES SOUTH
Will Row California and Stanford-
Return Race at Seattle.
UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON.
Seattle, April S. (Special.) Coach Knight
left with the University rowing crew for
San Francisco yesterday. On April 15
"Washington will meet the university of
California, while In the week iouowing
the local men will In all probability com
pete -with Stanford.
The race is taking place mucn sooner
than was anticipated by the university
men. i$ut wnen ueneraa manager .vana
made his trip south he found that it
would be necessary to have a race in Cal
ifornia if he was to be able to have the
Southerners come north later in the sea
eon. The California boys said that It
would be impossible to keep up the Inter
est In the sport at their college unless a
collegiate race was pulled oft at home
this Spring.
It was agreed, however, that tne race
to decide the series, and the one which
will decide who is the winner of the Llppy
cup, will be tne one neia in ceaiue, on
Lake "Washington, about May 25.
At the latter race both the universities
of Stanford and California will enter
Ireshmen and 'varsity crews. At the com
ing race on April 15, however, Stanrord
has refused to enter a crew on account
of the race taking place at the Oakland
Estuary. The course is hard to row over.
and unless a crew is used to the tides
and weather conditions, it Is almost Im
possible for It to compete against the Cal
ifornians, who row over the course In
their regular practice. Washington con
sented to have the race at Oakland in
order to keep up the present aquatic re
lations.
Stanford does .not object to a race on
somo neutral water, and in all probability
"Washington will meet her the week fol
lowing the race with the university or
California.
The men -who are to represent Washing
ton in the race on next Saturday are: Dan
Pullen (captain), stroke: Fred Tllton. No.

boat. Tllton is a freshman and has never
been in a boat before this year. The
coach, however, believes that by the end
of the season he will prove the strongest
man the university has ever had on a
crew.
Fred McElmon. who has rowed on two
of "Washington's 'varsity crews and was
captain of the football team last Fall,
has only been turning out for the past ten
days, and was not able to get Into shape
for the coming race, but he will undoubt
edly be on the crew when the big regatta
with Stanford and California comes on in
Seattle in May
SCHILLERS WIN THE GAME.
Defeat East Siders by Score of Nine
to Eight.
Those hungering baseball fans who Jour.
neyed out to Twenty-fourth and "Vaughn
streets yesterday and were courageous
enough to brave the cold wind that blew
across the diamond were rewarded by
game played between the Schlllers and
the East Portlands. While the nine in
nings were productive of the close' score
of 9 to 8 in favor of the Schlllers, this
tally does not by any means tell the ex
act standing of the game. In those nine
Innings there were mixed up hits, errors,
good playing, bungling, stolen bases and
dumb plays, that gave to the game all
the assortment and variety that could
possibly be asked for In the National
game.
At the end of the fifth inning the game
stood 2 to 1 In favor of the East Siders,
but when they put Hunter In the box in
the sixth, the Schlllers found him just to
their liking, and when they got through
with him in the- sixth, eight runs had
been tallied against him. The East Side
men came back with two runs In their
half, and throughout the rest of the game
lessened the advantage of their opponents
until the score finished 9 to 8.
Features of the game were the master
ful style in which Umpire Ed Rankin
delivered his famous "Ah! gwan an' sit
down" to various players, and the quit
ting of Colly Druhot in the eighth, after
he had replaced Howard of the Schlllers
In the box.

CHICAGO, April 9. The entries for the

Portland Bowlers Meet.
The Portland city bowlers met at the
Portland alleys yesterday In a preliminary
meeting for the purpose of arranging for a
Summer league and appointing officers,
and also for the purpose of arranging for
an open tournament to be held In Port
land during the Fair. Owing to forced
absence of many of the prominent
members of the present Ten-pin League,
THE GREATEST RACING MARES OREGON
the meeting was adjourned to meet Imme
diately after the close of the Intercity
telegraphic bowling contest to be held at
the Oregon alleys next Friday night. At

ASSAULTED BY HIS BJVAL
Young Gallant Rendered Unconscious
by Foul Blow.
Park Rinehart, of Portland, dared to
call on a girl living on Hawthorne street
last night and aroused the animosity of
a young gallant living in that neighbor
hood, who, he alleges, brutally assaulted
him. About 11 o'clock last night Rine
hart was standing on the corner of East
Eleventh and Hawthorne streets waiting
for the car, when a young man, whose
dress betokened a gentleman, assaulted
him without warning, knocking him to
the pavement.
After Rinehart had fallen to the ground
unconscious, his assailant kicked him sev
eral times and walked off with a gang
of young men who were standing near by.
'why dldn t you finish him when you
had him down?" asked one of the party
as the unknown young man joined them.
Rinehart regained his senses almost
immediately and notified the police. He
says the man who made the attack tried
to kill him. If his assailant can be found,
Rinehart says he will prosecute him to
the full extent of the law.

FARMER'S VIEW OF SPLASH-DAK
He
Tells Other Side of Question
Judge McBrlde Decided.
GRAY'S RIVER, WASH., . 3.
(To the Editor.) I have read In The
Oregonlan Judge McBride's decision
about the use of splash dams in the
Ciatskanle River of Clatsop County,
Oregon. We, the farmers of Wahkia
kum County, Washington, are wonder
ing if the farmer has any right at all
to his land, which the logger and tim
ber shark ought to respect, or are we
entirely to depend on their mercy? Un
fortunately, we are situated similarly
to the farmers-of Clatsop County. The
first argument by the Judge was that
the small holders do not possess the
means necessary to build loglng roads.
and for that reason the logger should
be allowed the use of rlvors and creeks
to float the logs as Nature has pro
vided. To that part we have no objec
tion, but Nature has not provided any
splash dams. The Judge must have had
In mind the freshet they had at Hepp
ncr nearly two years ago, when he says
that a splash dam docs not do any more
damage than a natural freshet of the
same height. This is not at all accord
ing to facts, for a splash dam causes
the water to rise all at once and rushes
logs and rocks and gravel and any
thing movable down the stream until
It gradually subsides, generally leaving
the logs strewn along the banks or In
piles, for the water of the next splash
to out the banks behind the logs, but
It affords the logger more room at his
rolling tier. The Judge says that a
splash dam brings the logsdown sep
arated. That Is another error of the
Judge's. A natural freshet Is caused by
little creeks and brooklets from the
mouth of a river to its head, thereby
raising It gradually, and the logs far
thest down will rise first and so on.
Besides the current is nothing com
pared to the current of a splash, be
cause the latter rises differently from
tho former. Any creek large enough to
float a broom handle can be made to
float sawlogs by building dams big
enough to hold the water for splashing.
Judge McBrlde says further that all
streams are liable to damage tholr
banks. To be sure! We have experi
ence to that effect, and that is the rea
son we do not want any freshets oft
ener than we can help, for when we
took the land we calculated only on
natural freshets, which happen only
about two or three times a year and
not every day. In one place In our
county they splashed twice a day, but
at last the loggers found It too expen
sive, for they had to pay for the dam
age they did to the banks, and at 'last
they built a railroad. Our State of
Washington seems to have Judges pos
sessed of more equity. We do not ob
ject to floating logs on any streams
whenever they can be floated by nat
ural freshets.
Thirty years ago next May I landed
In Portland direct from the State of
Illinois with the Intention of looking
tor land suitable for farming. After
looklnpr around I located where I now
live. I found the land very good, I
liked the climate, but found the land
very hard to clear. I bought -'the land
from the Northern Pacific Railroad for
o an acre. Some years later that com
pany lost right to the land by Congress
forfeiting it and I bought the land
from the Government at $1.25 an acre.
Hundreds of others have had to do the
same. Now, who have the best right to
that land we or the logger? Another
thing may be considered and looked Into
by the General Government, as well as
the state namely, that all streams nav
igable for steamboats are our only prac
ticable highways whereby we can send
our produce to market, and consequently
should not be destroyed. Any rise of
creeks or rivers caused by a splash dam.

STEAMER OREGON GETS IN.
Ill-Fated Steamer Reaches Port From
San Francisco.
The Oregon tied up to the AInsworth
dock at VAo o'clock this morning, after a
quiet Journey from San Francisco. It has
been only a few weeks since she caught
lire off Crescent City and received about
$25,000 worth of damage, besides a los3 of
three times that much to the cargo. Crews
of men were set to work on her in San
Francisco, after she had been beached at
Eureka, and afterwards taken to the lat
ter place. She brought with her on her
first trip since the accident Rear-Adirilral
Louis Kempff, who has been commissioned
to investigate the methods of the marine
Inspection service.
Captain Warner, of the Oregon, re
marked when asked about the Are that
it was not the kind of thing he would liko
to have happen to him again. He said ne
had -no fear for the safety of the passen
gers, but he was afraid for a time that he
might lose the ship.
"Everything that would burn well was
in that portion of the cargo which was
afire," he said, "oil and oakum and things
of that sort, and there was no telling but
that gases might accumulate and blow
up tho deck. However, that danger was
not realized."
In the Investigation after the Are it will
be. remembered that the Inspectors not
only cleared Captain Warner of any
blame but passed the highest commenda
tion on the heroic manner In whicli ho
met the difficulties which confronted him,
and to his presence of mind they attri
buted the fact that one of the most horri
ble disasters In marine history on this
coast was averted.
Rear-Admlral Kempff remained on board
the Oregon for the night.
PERFECTLY SWEET.
Lovely Picture of Maternal Lova in
Soul of Rabbit.
Washington Post.
Hitherto the Post has devoted Its rabbit
literature to the presentation of that re
markable animal's ferocious instincts and
its extraordinary achievements In single
combat with enemies of all kinds. There
Is. however, another and a more engaging
aspect of the rabbit which should not be
overlooked by those who seek in the prop
er spirit to understand its many-sided
character. The esteemed Savannah Nows
records an Instance which we here quote
by way of Illustration: ,
"Mr. Brown Is the owner of a hlgh-
rade hunting dog. whose kennel, fur
nished with various bits of carpet to make
warm bed. is In the back yard. One
night not long ago Mr. Brown heard the
dog yelping, but paid little attention to
the matter. Next morning tne dog was
found asleep on the piazza doormat. He
couldn't be induced to go near the kennel.
Mr. Brown Investigated. He found in the
kennel a plump mamma rabbit and two
of the cutost little baby rabbits in the
world. Mrs. Cottontail had chased Bruno
out and appropriated his house."
Mr. Ernest Seton-Thompson or Is it

picture of tho rabbit mother In her splen

snake which sought to lunch upon her off
spring. There the rabbit was tho Incar
nation of red battle and sicKening tieids of
massacre. Tne Jumeniaes were maae to
seem mere chattering shopgirls in com
parison. Bellona took on the blushing
timidity of a debutante, and Mrs. Carrie
Nation, subjected to that contrast of fe
male violence, would have been appraised
as a meek, low-spirited chaperon. But,

With a family coming, this rabbit asked
only for modest shelter peacefully ac
quired. Did she attempt the life of Mr.
Brown's hunting dog? A few hlndleg
swats may have been necessary to effect
Bruno's evacuation of tho kennel, but
there was no bloodshed, no Injurious pur
suit or persecution. Molly contented her
self with kicking Bruno out, and then. In
a spirit of the most forgiving amiability,
proceeded to welcome her progeny to a
new and interesting world. Beautiful Im
pulse of maternity! Halcyon vanguard of
a love too sweet for words!
All this occurred In Bullock County,
Georgia, named for the distaff side of
President Roosevelt's ancestry. The facts
are thoroughly authenticated. Mr. Brown
Is a prominent and Influential citizen. His
dog Is at once the pride and envy of the
local hunters. And now the Brown fam
ily, recruited from time to time by volun
teers from the neighborhood, are paying
tribute of milk and cabbage leaves, and
custard, and so on, to the proud mother
In temporary occupation of the kennel,
while Bruno himself Is reconciled to the
doormat as a makeshift couch. Let us
drop the curtain on, this scene of almost
Intolerable beauty!'
How a Rattlesnake Strlkra.
Pearson's.
It may seem absurd to claim that there
are cases where the bite of a rattlesnake
Is not fatal. Yet, such have happened,
and to understand these it is necessary
only to understand the manner In which
this reptile strikes.
The spectacle of a rattlesnake at bay
Is one a beholder never forgets. The
great, long body lies colled Into atense
spiral, the very embodiment of wicked
ness. Poised in air, the white-bellied fore
body is bent Into a horizontal S. rigid as
an iron bar. Raised from tho middle of
the spiral is the tall, quivering like a
twanged banjo string and emitting a rat
tle like steam escaping from the cock of
a radiator, or like the sounl of a mowing
machine In a distant hayflekL Awe-In-
spirlng. the dread, flat, triangular head,
eyes gleaming black and cold as Icy steel,

mouth opens wide and pink, the long,
thin poison fangs arise from a horizontal
position and stand upright. Ilka a pair of
slender, curved, needle-pointed shad-
bones, ready for business. Like a flash.
far too quick for the eyo to follow, the
snake strikes, sending homo his fangs an
inch or two and In tho same fraction of
an instant he has squirted a tablospoon-
ful of canary-yellow viscous fluid Into
the wound, and lies colled, ready for a
second attack.
In this incomprehensibly swift attack

to make a victim seriously ill.
Another reason why a rattlesnake's bite
is not always fatal Ls that, temporarily
the reptile may be without venom. The
snake may have exhausted its poison on
a previous enemy, in which case it would
have to wait several days before
deadly fluid has reaccumulated. Or.
again, the viper's fangs may have suf

prospector in an injured tone.
"Well, dinner is over then," calmly
rejoined the girl.
"Not much variety, boys." said tho
prospector when he told of this experi

"Goldflohl ls a great country." said,

"Hold on," Interrupted him -the old

"Yes," answered the waiter.
"Tame or wild?" Inquired the other,
