Rip Van Haltren's cave dwellers stayed awake Ions enough yes terday afternoon to win a 3-to-2 contest from those "to be" champions of ours. Benny Henderson had a day that was fcafrron-hued around the edges and buff In tho center, while Ell Cates had enough crooks and benders to glut the pitching market. Before the matinee was two minutes old Pop Van poked out a safe one. On the heels of this safe pelt Kruger hit to short left for another binglet. Mike Mitchell made a quick relay of the ball, but the throw was none too good. It hugged the ground and Donahue missed It and so did Henderson. Net result Van Haltren scored and so. did Kruger. Some of the hopeful fell back on the old saw, . bad beginning means a good ending," and waited. In tne fifth spasm It looked as If the "good" was coming. And right here let's offer a resolution of thanks to our fellow townsman. Buck Francks. As a heaver of high ones he Is a sugar-cured, gold enameleu dandy. But for that brilliant ability to toss off high ones, those pennant-grabbers of ours would have been Indebted to Ell Cates for a round of nice. Juicy horse collars. Francks exhibited his dexterity as a sky-hurler in the fifth, after Calift had forced Henderson at sec ond and had stolen second. Jimmy Mc Hale singled. Calift went Into third and McHale set off the fireworks by stealing second. Bliss heaved the ball to Francks for a quick return to nail Calift at the pan. Bliss' throw was fine. So was Buck's, for he aimed at the roof of the grand stand. Calift scored and Jimmy McHale kept on coming. Bliss, after lots of worry, got the ball back to Cates, but Jimmy's handsome tootsies had already thrown the dust In Ell's eyes. This was the only chance that the locals had. It tied the score, and the game ran along like a snail doused with salt until the eight Inning. Smith (not Jud) banged out a. three-bagger, with Cates In the morgue. He scored on Van Haltren's third safe blngle during the game. On the heels of Van's swat Kruger and Helt- mueller hit safely and chunks of woe fil tered over the bleachers. Henderson set tled down. Pete Lister dragged down Bliss' foul and Donahue took care of one off Brick Devereaux's bat. It was one- two-three for Portland In their last try. Just to mention the fact In passing, Ca lift played In right field. Manager McCre die having determined to take a day's va cation. This might have been the cause of defeat, for so the story runneth, the kittens will play when the old cat's away. The score: - PORTLAND. AB. R. IB. P.O. A. E.

Force of Men Busy With List of Fair Vouchers. DISTRIBUTION NEXT WEEK Division of Lewis and Clark Expo sition Surplus Is to Be Made by Auditor Mackenzie. 2480 Stockholders. Stockholders of the Lewis and Clark Exposition may rest assured that they will receive what remains of their original subscriptions, which will be forthcoming before the end of next week, so those in charge say. Four men are now at work making out the vouchers for 2480 individual stock holders and Just as soon as possible the checks will be mailed. Auditor Mackenzie Is out of the city Just at present, but his office force is preparing the vouchers. To make out 2480 vouchers Is not a slight task, as all have to be gone over several dif ferent 'times to Insure accuracy. As sistant Auditor Collis has charge of the work of making out the checks and there are three others employed with him. At the last meeting of the board of directors of the corporation, held Au gust 2, a resolution of dissolution waa adopted and a 20 per cent dividend de clared. It was given out at the time that the subscribers would receive their money as soon as the vouchers could be prepared and mailed. Money at any time Is very accept able and so the stockholders have awaited the dally deliveries of mail with more than usual interest. Every day they have expected to receive a long fat envelope with the Lewis and Clark stamp, but have ' been disap pointed. So they began asking ques tions and no one appeared to know who had charge of the funds. Uneasi ness was manifested by some of the stockholders. There Is a cash balance on hand of $96,868.34. The stockholders will re ceive the distribution authorized, the sum of $80,438.40, which is 20 per cent of $402,192, which represents the paid- in stock. To close up the affairs of the corporation, $16,429.94 has been re tained, but of this It is hoped to dis tribute another 2 per cent dividend. To the- San Francisco relief fund 7326 shares of the Lewis and Clark stock were subscribed. The par value Is $10 per share, so this lot of stock represents an original Investment of $73,260. Twenty per cent of this Is $14,652, which will go to San Fran cisco. The stock Is now held by City Treasurer Werlein, and as soon as he receives the cash for it he will send It to the general relief committee at the Bay City. Make Tteturns for All Marriages. PORTLAND. Aug. 22. .To the Ed itor.) I notice in Tuesday's Oregonian a record of 27 couples who were or were not married. It occurs to the writer that this custom is a loose one, and especially so from the fact that marriage is a very solemn and bind ing contract. Last Sunday night I lis tened to the remarks of Dr. Short, of the Taylor-street Methodist Episcopal Church, In which he criticised very se verely marriages solemnized by Jus tices of the Peace or Judges. These 2 1 couples who secured marriage li censes and on which no returns ever have been made, have been united in solemn, .wedlock y.. acute-ana wh.o cares, ATWORK OH .' - " "" llll l!E7"l"sjssstl- g "- hi4Y J1"' "" " "fi 1 1 -i i m i T;-"'- 'n "i"ii'"r -j f I if tqsnjl - Mil s ' 1 ' Jm.

Some law ought to be enact ed at the next session of our Legislature making it a felony for either a minister of the Gospel or a Justice of the Peace to unite together two souls and yet fail to lodge the necessary papers with the proper au thority. I note that County Clerk Fields cannot reach the ministers dl rectly, because he has no means of knowing to whom people go to be mar ried. Is there no way In which this can be rectified?" Is It not possible for John Smith or John Jones to apply for a license every month, with no record of his marriage ever occurring? P. A MACPHERSON. 'S El 17, polk; company estimates POPULATION AT 178,705. Approximation Based on First Pages of tlie Directory Now in the Press. Portland the home of 178,705 people. ThIs Is according to a rough estimate just made by Mrs. E. J. Clinton, local man ager of the Polk Directory Company. She says that the Rose City has gained 17,500 In population over last year, which, added to the estimate given by the directory people when the former, book was Issued, gives Portland fc population of 178.705. Mrs. Clinton stated yesterday that the estimate does not include the disreput able element or the Chinese. She also declares that the names of the transient guests at the various hotels are not In cluded. The new directory will be ready for distribution In about a month, when Mrs. Clinton says she will be able to give out almost an exact count. The directory will come nearer giving the actual popu lation of the city than any other means except the United States census. Mrs. Clinton has based her present es timate solely upon the showing made by the first six pages of printed forms of the new directory. There is a gain of eight pages in this number of forms and Mrs. Clinton is of the opinion that the new book will contain 100 pagea more than the directory of last year. The shprtest proper name in the new directory is that of Charles F. Ek, a planerman. The longest name, so far as has been ascertained. Is that of Lauten schlaeger, four persons bearing that name appearing In the direetory. TRIP INCITES INTEREST Hawaiian Papers Devote Columns to Visit of W. A. Mears.

Each of the three Honolulu dally papers have printed Inter views from Mr. Mears, explaining the purpose of his visit to the capital of the islands and to Hllo, on the Island of Hawaii, where he will also spend Bome time. The papers speak in the highest terms of Mr. Mears and the Idea of his visit and state that the people will co-operate with Portland for future trade in every way. Attend Horse Races by Invitation.

OFFERS MINERALS TO CITY Walla Walla Man Says He Would Give Valuable Collection for Mu seum if Portland Plutocrats Would Do Their Part. Colonel Frank J. Parker, formerly editor of the Walla Walla Statesman, unsheathed his verbal knife yesterday afternoon and paid his respects to Portland plutocrats In an acrid vein. The Colonel Is disgusted thoroughly with the Portland type of plutocrat and handles the subject with gloves. He was Inspired to the onslaught by bis failure to Interest local capitalists in building a museum in which to store his mineral collection, said to be one of the finest in the country. "It is a disgrace to the city of Port land, with all Its vaunted wealth, that It has no museums of any note and no spirit of willingness to give among Its plutocrats which might make possible the endowment of some such institu tion," said the Colonel yesterday. "I have the finest collection of minerals on the Pacific Coast, and I want to give It free to this city where I have been so long Interested. I want to make this contribution to the notable possessions of the Rose City because here I have made much of my fortune and I am glad to turn some of It back MFN'R Diseases We Will Treat Any Single IXCERfl STRICTURE!

OREGON. Our Removal Bale continues to offer many special values in all grades of furniture. ; for the beautlflcatlon and enrichment of the place. But I have been working for the Northwest and Portland for 40 years and I have yet to see the pluto crats of this city turn over a hand to endow the city whra they have amassed their wealth. "I will give my collection, -worth thousands of dollars, to the city, if some man of wealth will provide a suitable building to contain the same. My specimens were on exhibition at the Fair last Summer and covered 150 feet of shelving. I do not feel like giving it away to have It put in some dark corner in the City Hall. I will not dispose of it unless a building Is provided to contain it. Tou have mil lionaires on millionaires in Portland, your advertisements boast that Port land is a city of millionaires.
