THE MOUSING OREGONIAN, MONDAY, AUGUST 14, 1905. 13 LOSE IF RACES COST LARGE SUM Owners and Trainers Anxious 'to Know Outcome of Court Action. LOSSES AGGREGATE $15,000 Fair Association Has Paid Grocery Bills for Employes and Bought Feed for Horses That None Should Suffer. "To race, or not -to trace!" that is the question; It Is the question that evory owner and trainer at Irving ton racetrack is asking himself. The weak just passed has been one of anxiety and anticipation for them. The enforced rest has cost them at the lowest estimate 5W.O0O, which would have been divided among them If the daily purses had been raced for. Not alone have the horsemen fmffered loss of this amount of money, but It would take another $5000 distributed among the various employes to make up what they have lost on account of the Injunction. If the Multnomah Fair Association had not made arrangements with the feed man and the groceryman, not only would the horses have gone without enough to cat, but the employes would have gone hungry. A committee of men knew the state of finances of the various own ers and trainers whoee stables were at Irvington and It was these men who were given food for their stables. More than $500 was spent in this way by the asso ciation. Of course this money will come back to the association should Judge Frazer dlswlve the injunction this morn ing, a thing which not only the horsemen hope for, but hundreds of the best citi zens as well. In spite of Captain E. V. Spencer's affidavit stating that he had not only told , Dixon, and others, there would be no more racing at Irvington track because of the Nease decision, there arc some who take issue on this statement. Dixon came to Portland a week or ten days before the' date for the opening of the meeting. He came here for the purpose of having an interview with President Diamond re garding the booking privileges. At that time he did not say that Captain Spencer had informed him there were to be no races at Irvington. He .was seen in the Portland Hotel shortly after hia arrival and was asked by a newspaper man if he was again to have the booking at the track. He replied: "I'm here to see Mr. Diamond and I don't know yet where I am. I am to see Mr. Diamond again and I think it will be settled In a day or two." During the talk he admitted that he could 'not quite understand why he was to be left out, but he did not Intimate that In case he did not have charge of the booking again any movement would be made towards stopping the races, nor did he say thai Captain Spencer had told him there would be no more poolsclllng on the track. After Captain Spencer had attempted to have the officials arrested, Dixon in the presence of a horseman and newspaper man stated that Captain Spen cer na gone so far now that he (Dixon) couJri not "pull him off." The horseman p5nt at this talk was W. Magrane. XATTOXAIi LEAGUE. Cincinnati 7, Boston 2. CINCINNATI, O., Aug:. 13.

As we turn our eyes from the brown condition of all the lawns In Mount Ta- bor and Montavllla to the 'beautiful, snowy sides of Portland's favorite moun tain, from whence comes the water of which Portland la so proud, one asks what action the Mount Tabor Push Club Is taking to do away with the aforesaid brownness.V ! The property-owner In Mount Tabor and Montavllla may a? well realize this fact that property In those suburbs can never get up to any extent in value without water. He Is a foolish man who will put up a good house on a lot that cannot be reached by a plentiful supply of the precious fluid. It is useless to abuse the Mount Tabor Water Company for not furnishing more water than they can pump from their fading spring. They would be delighted to sell the water if they had it Let our pueh club take up the water question now the subject Is warm. May be we want Mayor Lane to do something: or the Water Board: or perhaps we should put in a pumping plant near the Columbia River and get plenty of water of our own. But let us do something, and that while the necessity appears. MOUNT TADOR. THE "DOG DAYS." Strong Hold of Superstitions on the Modern Mind. Philadelphia Ledger. The fiction of the "dogs days' Is too hoary to loose Its hold easily upon a race partial to traditions of astral influence in human affairs, and some almanac makers, like those happy mortals who "rush in where angels fear to tread," an nounce in cheerful confidence that these "dies canlculares," as the old Romans termed them, are upon us. But what, and which, are the "dog days?" Every com puter of domestic calendars is a law unto himself with respect to this particular season, for the best of reasons the season itself is at sea. In fact, it cannot be otherwise, for. like the "movable" feasts" of the church. Its astronomical setting, upon which it en tirely depends, is a perpetually varying quantity In midwinter, conspicuous among the brilliant star groups of the Southern sky. Is visible the constellation of Canls J Major the Greater Dog. Its bright, par ticular star, Slrlus, though not so bril liant as some of the planets, is the moft lustrous of all the starry host, and there fore easily the emperor of the train. For ages It has been known as the "dbg star." In ancient mythology Canls Major and Canls Minor the Lesser Dog em bracing the bright star Procyon ("going before the dog"), were assigned to the mighty hunter Orion to serve him in the chase. The stars of midwinter nights are the stars that beam upon us all unno ticed, on mi isummer days, and hence at this season the imperial Slrlus, together with his canine associate, Procyon, shines all of the day in the sunny azure. j The Romans of the okicn time I annually sacrificed a dog to Slrlus. i hoping to .win his favor toward 't their fields and flocks. The Egyp ! tlans, long before, gave the closest atten tion to the rising of Slrlus, for in thHr thought it was associated with the weal or woe of their land. It augured the ris ing of the Nile, "Siris." and indicated the propitious time for sowing. Unfortunately for votaries of the "signs" In planting and other astrological vagaries, the time of the rising of Slrlus varies with the latitude: beside. It varies in the same latitude as decades and cen turies go on owing to the possession of equinoxes. Hence It will not answer to hitch the wagon of seasonal hypothesis to a star. So Intimately did the ancients associate the heliacal rising of Slrlus with events of importance to the land that tney even instituted a heliacal year. Various dates have been assigned by tradition as the first dog day. and various periods as constituting the season. It has been claimed that lUxommenced in the remote past on August 4 and lasted forty days, until September 14. As few as thirty days are sometimes cited, and as many as fifty-four. Pliny refers the commence ment of the dog days to the heliacal ris ing of Procyon. which seems at least ap proprlato as being canicular, and which occurred July 19. It would seem that forty days was regarded as the period In most cases, twenty days before and twen ty days after the heliacal rising of Slrlus. But whatever the variations of testi mony there is general agreement with Hippocrates, who may be styled the father of astronomy, and to whom Ptole my was greatly Indebted for pioneer work in the science. He affirms that the dog days were In the very hottest part of the Summer. And It is known that the Egyp tians were In groat dread of the extreme heat and blighting drought. People of the present age who cling to venerable traditions will not be embarrassed about the uncertainty of a few days, but will contentedly ascribe the sweltering weather likely to be encountered to the malign influence of the great dog, Slrlus. Boston's Toad Crop. Boston Transcript. The toad crop in the suburbs is re ported to be largoly In exoess of any thing noticed in former years, and he is said to be a voracious devourer of the brow-tall moth. Shakoepeare knew what he was talking about when he wrote that the toad had a "precious Jewel in his head." CRACK ATHLETE GOES TO WIL LAMETTE. J. TV. rhilbrook. PACIFIC UNIVERSITY. Ferest Grave. Aug. 18. (Special.) J. W. Phllbrook. a member of this year's graduating class, has accepted a po sition at "Willamette University as In structor In the sciences under Pre fessor Boyer. He specialized In this line at Pacific. He will also pursue studies In the Medical Department at Willamette. Phllbrook captained the football team at Pacific last season, and, al though injuries kept him from play ing In most of the games, he Is known as one of the best players In the state. He has had four years experience on the gridiron here, and two years ago was men tioned for fullback on the All-Oregon team.

It wound up 1 to . with the Giants holding the lone ace In the hole. If you would ask the rxwaut-btitcher how many Innings there were in the Sabbath matinee, he would answer right quick-like, one, and that the thirteenth. Spider Baum and Frigid Frees em Essick were the chief duelists, and for 12 innings Baum was the whole show. Until Tim Flood played catch around the suicide three in the thirteenth canto, saving Ely Catos' life, not a Giant had planted his spikes on third. This was not the case with the Invading army, for twice they managed to shove & man around the cir cuit to station Xo. 3, but they fell down before Bill E&sick's cold-storage concoc tions. Specter of Defeat. There were two down when the house of too much trouble turned loose its in habitants. The specter of defeat occu pied a mauve plush-covered seat at sec ond base, where Tim Flood emulated the piano-player of Bloody Gulch. It was Ely Cates who started trouble for Tim Flood. Mitchell had been ntorgued. and Catos jolted one to Flood that he mussed up. McLean drove him to second with a dinky binglc. Now It was Hoffman's turn, and he saved the Giant nteathouse from collapsing by biffing the ball back of second base. Cates crossed the rubber while Bernard was trying to catch the ball on the bound. McLean, who was chasing him around the circuit, when he saw Ely cross the rubber, turned and ran to the clubhouse Then It befell the duty of J, Ira (Slats) Benedict Davis to run to the plate and do the semaphore act with his arms, as if every faithful on the grounds didn't know that the Giants had won. Great Ball Played. It was the kind of a game thatytnade the guests, cut out bad language and" for get to oat peanuts. From the time that Essick tossed the first ball over the plate, the signal was up for a great game. Wit en Baum began sliding them over in the same masterful way, it was written in the book. In 12 innings Baum only allowed two men to got throe hits. They were Householder and McLean. Essick -was equally as hard to find, and If it hadn't been for the timely swats of Mc Lean and that of Hoffman's, which, by the way, came in as handy as a safety pin to a young woman who had ripped hor bloomers, Baum and Essick might have been working until Old Sol rang down the curtain. There were a couple of miscues tossed into the game. One by Jakey Atz threat ened trouble, but even if it had resulted in a run, he would have been forgiven, for he certainly played a star game. So did Van Buren and the rest of the Giants. Larry Schlally was banished frojn the game by Czar Davis because he protested a close decision at first. In a previous inning Larry made a gallant slide Into first. Davis called him out, and he walked back to the bench -without a protest. A couple of innings later Flood turned the same trick, and the newly married um pire called him safe. Then Schlafly's blood boiled. He held a furious confab with the man with the indicator, and tho result was that he sat on the bench dur ing the rest of the game, it doesn't matter now that Portland -won the game, but the banishment of a member of the Inner guard In a game-like that of yes terday Is apt to hurt, so be careful Schlaf Iy and Davis.

It Is" curious to observe that even the greatest realists do not venture to be stow eye-ghueo on their heroines. It la rather odd too. seeing how many charm ing women do In real life wear them, and are not debarred by them from the most dramatic careers and the most poignant emotions. But while the modern novelist has bestowed eye-glasses on everybody else he has not yet had the hardihood to put them on the nose of his heroine. Why? It 1p a problem which again shows the unquestionably undeserved and superior position of man. for a novelist does not hesitate to put him behind any., kind of glasees. and leave him just as fascinat ing and dangerous as he was before. Eye-glasses- are so much the common lot of humanity in those degenerate days that babies are nearly born with them, to judge at least from the tender age of the bespectacled infants I see trundled past in their perambulators. I have no doubt that the time will come If the strain on the hearing Increases from the diabolic noises In the streets, when the next generation's hearing will be as much affected as our oyes are now. with the .result that all the world will be using ear-trumpets and the novelist of the fu ture, the accredited historian ot manners will be obliged. If he is at all accurate, to have hie love-sick hero whisper his passion to the heroine through an ear trumpet. However, It Is a comfort not to be obliged to solve the riddles of the future. Still If it Is Inevitable that the future deaf hero will have to fall In love with a deaf heroine, why should not the present astigmatic hero in novels be permitted to tall In love with a lovely creature In glasses? He certainly does it often enough In real life. Of course. It would not do for a he roine to have a wooden leg. I grant, and yet I have met a hero with a wooden leg. and I am quite sure I know several who have lost an arm. Why, then, should It be required of us poor women to be so perfect? If a man can wear spectacles without for feiting his position as a hero of ro mance. I demand the same right for a woman. Why, a man can even be bald and she -will lovo him all the same! To be sure, there are Instances of blind heroines Inspiring a passion, and j also I believe of lame heroines limp ing poeucany tnrough the pages of a novel, as well as of other disabilities which apparently never tako away from their charms, but I know of no heroine whom the novelist has en dowed with a pince-nez. Now, why are glasses in literature so incompatible with romance In a woman while they never damage a man? Why can a man look at the object of his passionate adoration through all the known vari eties of glasses, and yet not lose for an instant the breathless interest of the most gushing of novel readers? His eye glasses may even grow dim with manly tears, and the reader's own eyes will be blurred with sympathetic moisture. But let the heroine weep behind her glasses and the most Inveterate de- MINER HIT A Gold Miner on the Coffee Question. Many a rugged constitution has broken down by use of cofTee: "I and my son are miners and have boen strong cofTee drinkers. I will add I followed mining for fifty years. Near ly three years ago my eon had palpita tion of the heart so bad that after a hard day's work he would be almost unable to get his breath when lying down, and I was a victim of constipa tion, headache and could not sleep soundly. "So I pulled up stakes one day and started to see a. doctor and curiously enough an old acquaintance I met on tho way steered me off. We stopped and talked and told each other all the news and I told him about our troubles. He said it was coffee doing the work and that using Postum In place of cof fee cured him of almost exactly the ailments I described. "So instead of going to the doctor's I ' sent for some Postum. although I did 1 not have much faith In if, but to my great Joy It turned out all right and aftor we quit coffee completely we both began to get well, kept It up. and are now both of us strong, well men, with none of the old troubles. A miner is supposed to be able to stand great hardships, but we could not stand cof fee. It was killing us. Anyone following the directions on the package of Post um will have a far better drink than he can get from the best coffee. "I think every coffee toper should know Postum will cure him of his ail ments, besides it is 3uch a refreshing drink." Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek. Mich. Coffee hurts nearly all who drink it and soaks some people very hard. There Is a sure way out of the trouble by quitting coffee and using Postum. And "tnere's a reason." Look in each package for a cops' of the faraoi3 little book, "The Road to Wei lville." vourer of novels will close the book In revolt. It -would be no use to describe how tho heroine's great brown eyes looked yearningly at the hero behind her glasses, nor how they swam In tears behind those same useful arti cles the reader would refuse to read, and, even If the heroine were only 19 and bewitchingly beautiful, she would at once be divested of any romance. A NORSE VIEWPOINT. Why Norway and Sweden Should Agree to Separate. Review of Reviews. The dissolution of the union will be a blessing to bqth countries concerned. So long as Norway and Sweden are united under one King, there will be friction. The one nation will be Jealous of the other. Sweden, as the larger country, will at times like to make some exhibition of her power and authority, and Norway, as the smaller country, will be jealous, and will Imagine she Is . trodden upon even when she Is not. The long union between Denmark and Norway was a constant source of Irritation and bickerings, but since the two became separated they have been the best of friends. Let Norway and Sweden dissolve partnership, and there will be no better friends in all Europe than these two nations. No alliance on paper will be needed. In time of peril, either one would rush to arms In defense of the other. Two farmers may live side by side for a lifetime without having any trouble. but If they were partners and each had some claim on the other's prop erty, misunderstandings could scarcely fall to arise. What Is true of two farmers applies with no less force to two nations. A separate Norway and Sweden can be of mutual help; bound together under one King, they would be fated to disagree for all time. The Norwegians are. by their experience. Intelligence and education, abundantly able to govern their own country and manage their own affairs. England and America owe much -to old Norway and to the Viking spirit for the free Institutions they enjoy, and It would seem .that they now have an opportunity to pay a part of this debt by recognizing promptly the birth of Norway as a sepa rate and independent nation, either as a constitutional monarchy or, still better, as a new republic.
