Steltz was as wild as a hunted outlaw, and his delivery as uncertain as a scatter ttun's. Stelti shot them high, he shot them low so low In fact, that one of his crooked ones caressed Bobby Eager's left trilby, caromed off and bounded as high an the roof of the grandstand. While all this was going on the Port land balltossers were picking out one now and then and driving it clear off the in field for safe bingles. One of Mr. Steltz' woozy kind was caught on the seam and clouted for three stations. Larry McLean located three oft Steltz and placed them where they "ain't." McHale Finds the llorsehlde. In the first Inning Portland chased two runs over the pan. McHale hit safe and then Steltz brought out his passbook and Issued free tickets to Sweeney and Mitch ell. MeCredie chased one over with a single and McLean the other with a biff to left. Singles by MeCredie, who, by the way also got three hits out of four times up, McLean and Donahue, drove In an other run In the fourth canto. In the fifth, with Garvin down, Mc Hale turned his back on one of Mr. Steltz' weird ones, and it hit Jimmy on the cocoa. The noise was as If some bleacherlte had hit the head of a drum. McHale shook his head Just enough to drive out the stars. Sweeney hit safe, and while Cravath was asleep at the switch, Jimmy cantered to third. Mitchell forced Sweeney at second, and MeCredie poked one that fooled Bernard and rolled to the fence, bringing home McHale and Mitchell. Another run fell our way In the seventh, and still another in the eighth. Los An geles then woke up, while the Portlands were sleeping In their half of the closing chapter, and made two runs. Mitchell, Smith and Moore played tum-Tile-ball right in a row, and during the melee Los, Angeles scored twice. Goclinatier's Wonderful Catch. One pretty feature of the game was a wonderful one-hand spear by Gochnauer. Moore slammed one on the nose for a line drive over short. Gochnauer leaped into the breeze, turned around and shot his gloved mitt into the ozone. The ball met the outreaching glove, glued there until he hit the ground', and then the "Dutch mati" whipped the ball to first in time to double out McLean, who had started for second. Great was the hand that was handed the shortstop. All the while Marse Garvin was pitch ing dizzy rings around the Loo Loos. The old bird certainly had the 17 and 6 sign on the visitors.

SEATTLE, Wash., June 7. (Specials Seattle will probably release Heitmuller, left field, and Mott, third baseman. Hall has George Croll on the ground now to try out In the outfield. Croll is a better fielder than the big collegian, but the lat ter had It on him in hitting, at least dur ing the early, part of the season. He has fallen down recently in hitting and is not fast on the bases. Mott is a fair enough third sackman, and has been the best man on the corner Seattle has had. But Hall wants to get a faster team and has determined to replace him if possible. "Deacon'' "Van Buren, who drifted in yesterday to take Johnnie Kane's place at center and let Kane stay on second, has shown up pretty well, despite his long rest and lack of active work. He is prob ably a fixture, for the team is short on "Inside" ballplayers. High School Defeats Hlll.. Portland Hiph School tr dets of Hill Military Academy yesterday in a close game by 7 to 3. Word and Strelt vied with each other in strike outs, the former making 13 and the latter falling but one short of this number. Word, however,' pitched a steadier game, keeping his hits well scattered. The High School boys also gave their pitcher better backing, a fact which figured materially in the score. The High School was weakened by the loss of Newell, catcher and captain; Tauscher, third base, and Briggs, . right field, who have been disqualified for play ing Sunday ball.

Mag istrate Breen said: The uncontradicted testimony of two po lice officers shows that charges for admis sions were made. There seems to have been a defiant and reckless disregard of the penal statute under the supposed protection of a delusive subterfuge. The farcical action of a multitude of so-called members was a crude attempt to make the law a mockery. Corwin Arrives at Nome. SEATTLE. June 7.

Miss May Sutton, of Pasadena, Cal., was given one of the hardest matches she ever has had in Eng land in the second round of the Northern Counties ladles' singles championship, played at Aigburth. Liverpool, this after noon. Her opponent was Mrs. Sterry, who. as Miss Cooper, gained many tennis honors a few years ago. At the outset Miss Sutton was nonplussed by Mrs. Sterry's tactics. The latter alter nated a short drive Just over the net with a long lob, and Miss Sutton was kept run ning all over the court. Although win ning the first set, she lost the second the first set that she had lost in the tourna ment play. By her staying power she se cured the third set and match, but she was tired out, and she and D. R. Rhodes, of Boston, were beaten in the all-England mixed doubles championship by E.

Eugene Athletes Ready for Salem Field Day.. UNIVERSITY OF OREGON, Eugene, June 7. (Special.) Throughout the week Trainer Hayward has been coaching his athletes for the state meet with Corval lis, Willamette and Pacific at Salem, on Saturday. After the big meet at Seattle, the Oregon men seemed fully confident of success in the last meet of the year with the Oregen cblleges, but the development of first-place men like Lounsberry, of Wil lamette, and Peterson, of Pacific, together with an Improvement In the general strength of the Agricultural College team, makes the outcome of the Salem meet ex tremely doubtful. The main contest of the day will be be tween Oregon and Corvallls. Points gained by Willamette and Pacific are more likely to be taken from Oregon than from the Agricultural College, so that, while the varsity team has defeated Cor vallls in a dual meet, it does not follow that it has a certainty of victory next Saturday. Another factor in the coming meet Is the system of counting points. Ordinarily first, second and third placea count five, three and one points, respectively, but, according to special agreements, there will be four places in the state meet. They will count five, three, two and one point in order of finish. As there is no limit to the number of men that each col lege may enter, it is obvious that a team with second and third-place men will gain the same number of points out of each event as the team that takes first place. Most of the men who represented Ore gon at Seattle have shown improvement since last Monday, and there will undoubt edly be some record-smashing, if weather conditions are light. In the 100-yard dash, Dan Kelly and Moores may take first and second places over Smlthson, for Moores hag the form to do the event In ten seconds. Kelly will in all probability lower his. own record of 22 seconds in the 220-yard dash, and may do spectacular work in the broad Jump. Veatch, the fast relay man, will not be In the meet. It is not decided Just who will take his place, but Oregon Intends to take the relay, if possible, and may enter both Kelly and Moores, with Prldeaux and Oberteuffer.

A dispatch to the Tribune from Lebanon, 111., says: "Presi dent Chamberlin, of McKendree College, in his annual report to the board of trustees yesterday, entered Into a vigor ous discussion of intercollegiate athletics, especially football, recommending the abolishment of the game. He declared many institutions of learning are schools of anarchy. " 'As for the college spirit,' said Presi dent Chamberlin, 'it must be admitted that the arguments in favor of such form of cruel sport is well grounded if the chief object of the institution of learning is to promote so-called physical culture at the expense of human life and the broken bodies of contestants " 'It is this spirit which lead's to hazing, breaking into property, keeping ferocious bulldogs', supporting automobiles and other like dissipations in many of our in stitutions of learning. " 'I do not wish to be undertsood as be ing opposed to athletics. Physical culture is important, and field sports on a home field are not to be discouraged.'

What piece of furniture in your home was more admired than that old wicker chair, when it was new? You can rejuvenate it with a can of Gloss White jap-A-lac. Don't think it is not worth while; a new chair would cost a number of dollars, a can of jap-a-lac and a brush a few cents. Here's a question of economy worth looking into. If you have never seen the wonderful effect of jap-A-lac, try it on your wicker chair, and you will then realize its beauty. You can jap-a-lac a chair in a few minutes. Put a fancy cushion on the chair after it is dry, and you will have a piece of furniture fit for your best room. A WARNING AGAINST THE DEALER WHO SUBSTITUTES. Some dealers keep a little JAP-A-LAC in stock, so that when you ask for it, they can say, "Oh yes, we have it, but here is some thing better." Why do they say some thing better? For the simple reason that they make more profit on the kind they say is better. If the something really is better than jap-a-lac, why doesn't the manufacturer of it advertise it, and tell yotj about it ? Is it so good that he wants to keep that know ledge to himself? Hardly seems reasonable, does it? camps are established and food distributed. The Inventors and promoters of this dem onstration were eyewitnesses, and have spared no pains to present every detail geo graphically and architecturally correct. "Expressman" at the Grand.
