Those Los Angeles dreamers showed some signs of awakening in yesterday's baseball matinee. The awakening took place in the opening Inning, and when the fireworks ceased the young side wheeler, Frank Gum, was walloped for two singles and a two-ply swat, all of which counted two for the dreaming so journers. Captain Dillon sent the "Windy City lad, Bergman, out to do or die. He died, for Portland, with McHalo'e single, Mr. Bill Sweeney's two-cushion pole and Donahue's single tied up the scramble. It was a 5 to 2 victory when the shadows fell. "Just star Mr. P. Donahue as the bright and scintillant star of this after noon's recreation," said Mr. B. Sweeney. "Big Mac is only a recollection, while Mr. Donahue was the center of activity behind the bat. and he accepted 12 chances without a ripple in his de meanor. Nine young ambltlonists were retired by his marvelous ability to hold the ball, and through the accuracy of his aim three were caught in the act of pilfering bases. It was strictly a Mr. P. Donahue afternoon, I assure you." Then Mr. B. Sweeney retired. Modesty forbade him to recount his active work. Sweeney helped score the first run in the opening inning with a two-bagger, and later he scored on Mr. Donahue's first blngle. The strangle-hold stayed until Portland's half of the fourth inning. McCredle walked and Mr. Donahue sent him around with a single that developed into a triple because the ball bounded over Bernard's head. Donahue tried to make a homer on the swat and was killed off at the plate. Uoter walked, stole second and scored on Dillon's error. This put us in front. Mr. B. Sweeney walked in the fifth in ning and stole second. MoCredle's single sent him to third and Mr. Donahue's rtngle scored him. Both McCredle and Mr. Donahue showed up Los. Angeles by stealing a base each. This made the five runs for us and was enough. In the eighth inning the Loo Loos got perky and with two down they had three dancing merrily on the sacks. Eager, like Bergman, was there to do or die. He struck out. It was a case of Gum getting himself into a hole, and Gum getting himself out of the hole. He did. The score: PORTLAND.

TOP-NOTCHERS WILL ENTER Race Meet at State Fair This Year Promises to Bring Out More Thoroughbreds Than Ever Before Entered There. Eight carloads of horses, consisting of the best animals that raced this Summer at The Meadows, passed through Portland yesterday morning en route for Salem. Several additional carloads are to follow' and with any thing like fine weather for the week of the Oregon State Fair, those who attend will see some of the best races ever run at the Salem track. The end of the Seattle meeting came at a time best suited for the horsemen to ship . their stables to the State Fair and have them well established before the opening day. In the same ship ment were 20 cars which went direct to Emeryville, Oakland, where the California racing will be held this Winter for 150 days. The news that many of the horse men who raced their stables at The Meadows will race at Salem will be welcome to Portland people who were denied the opportunity of seeing them circle around the big track at Irving ton this Summer. The harness events at Salem have always brought together light harness horses of class, and many trotters and pacers that made a. mark during the annual state show have been heard from on the gTand circuit. It was not until within the past couple of years that the run ners that appeared at Salem were any thing but horses that ran in the bushes of Oregon and Washington. Two years ago many of the horses that carried off the purses at the fair went back to California and earned repeated brackets during the early part of the running season. This year a still bet ter class of horses will face the starter, for such good horses as Del Fountlan's Boloman, G. McNeil's fast miler Fun nyside, and a lot of other fast ones, will sport colors next week. Some of the Entries. Harry Stove, the Petaluma race king, with his justly celebrated and sensational 2-year-old Native Son, and a number of other good ones, will race at Salem. P. Sheridan will have six in his stable, Including the local fa vorite. Blue Eyes. James Coffey has seven in his string, including Montana Peeress. Charles Earl has Legal Form and three others, and D. Manley will race three, with Yankee Jim as the best In the barn. W. W. Finn has Sea sick and three others, while J. Reavey will be there with Hainault. W. Caine had his speed marvel, Laura F. M. , and five others In his car. Jack Coffman will race Superbus Queen and one other. That so many good horses -will race at Salem is due to the efforts of Rob ert Leighton. Squire Lelghton acted as racing secretary at The Meadows, and has also been in charge of the runners at Salem for several seasons. The other well-known racing officials who will be in charge of things at Salem will be Jack Dinue, who will be paddock Judge and official timer, and James McThaney, who will be clerk of the scales. Track Is Fast at Centralia. CENTRAXJA, Wash., Sept. 6. (Spe cial.) The first day's racing of the Cen tralia Driving Association took place this afternoon, a crowd of 800 people witnessing the events. The track was fast, in fact, so good that Starter Bellew remarked upon it to the crowd. All horses in the two driving races ran faster than class. The results: 2:23 pace Won by Glbble, driven by JoTin Lance: Brilliant, second; Mark Hanna third, time, 2:23 and 2:22. 2:25 trot Won by Carlyle, driven by James Irwin; Jallnta second, Flaxle Mc Gregor third; time, 2:23 and 2:21tt.

John P. Bellew, atarter; C. W. Aland and George D. Berlin, judges; Ben Sallck, timer. Nelson Has Gone Fishing. GOLDFIELD, Nev., Sept. 6. Battling Nelson left Goldfleld this morning for Truckee for a fishing trip. Aside from some few nasal and inter nal hemorrhages. Nelson was not severe ly hurt. His face was beaten up as a natural consequence of frequent collisions with Gans' fists, but nothing more se rious. He left this morning without any blare of trumpets. WATCHED WAYWARD GIRLS OFFICER LOXGCOR EXPLAINS PRESENCE IN HOUSE. Disclosures Made In Police Investi gation at Salem Will Lead to Wave of Reform. SALEM. Or., Sept. 6. (Special.) Sa lem's police investigation was closed this evening by the taking of the testimony of Chief Cornelius and Officer Longcor, whom Cornelius suspended. The chief testified that Longcor neglected to re port to him certain information regard ing the whereabouts of a man wanted for horse stealing. Longcor testified that he left a note on Cornelius' desk convey ing the information and the note was found on the chief's desk today and in troduced in evidence. The most important evidence offered was that Longcor had on several occasions rented a room in the Salem lodging-house and met women there. Longcor admitted renting rooms, but said he did so in or der to comply with requests of parents who wanted him to watch for their daughters and send them home. He told of taking one young girl out of the lodging-house at the request of a promi nent citizen, who had made the same request to the chief and had been re fused. In answer to the charge that he had made frequent visits to a room occupied by a young woman late at night, Long cor admitted that he and his fellow offi cer made the visits, but did so after her father had requested him to arrest her for being out at night. They made the visits in order to persuade her to stay at home, believing that to arrest her would remove all hope of her re forming. No arguments were made upon the case before the committee, but the testimony will be submitted in full to the Council Saturday night, when that body will take action, A large crowd was la attend s ance tonight, and great Interest was shown. The disclosures as to the lodging-house have worked up a strong public sentiment which seems likely to result in a moral wave for the removal of places that serve as easy avenues to vice for young people. BOSTON LIMPING TO DRYDOCK Temporary Repairs Are Made to the Hull After Going on Beach. BELLINGHAM, Wash., Sept, 6. The rent in the hull of the cruiser Boston has been patched to such an extent that it is not now necessary to operate the pumps. The forward seam, which let in a small flow of water, was caused by striking Peapod Rock. The main rent farther back was caused by striking a rock against which the vessel was swung by the rising tide. Lieutenant Murfln says that the Boston is in every way as good as ever and that it will require only about $600 to repair the starboard rent. The crippled cruiser steamed out of the harbor this afternoon on her way to Bremerton where she will go into dry dock for repairs. The tug Pawtucket followed In her wake. During a heavy gale last night the Boston went on the beach, but as the tide came in the cruiser was able to get off with her own engines. Frantic sig nals to the Government tug Pawtupket brought no response. PORT TOWNSEND, Wash., Sept. 6. The disabled cruiser Boston, convoyed by the Navy tug Pawtucket and the Prince ton, reached here tonight on the way to the Bellingham navy-yard at Bremerton. The three vessels anchored. The Boston is apparently resting easy. SCHOOL LEVY TO BE LESS WASHINGTON EQUALIZERS DIS COVER ERROR IN FIGURES. Needed Funds Can Be Raised on 3 1-2 Basis, According to Present Estimates. OLYMPIA, Wash., Sept. 6. (Special.) The State Board of Equalization today made the somewhat remarkable discov ery 'that the figures heretofore used by the board in estimating the levy for pub lic school purposes were Incorrect, Last year's levy, instead of raising $8 for each school pupil In the state, produced $9.40 per capita for school children. The result of this discovery is that the board now finds it can raise the sum of $10 per capita, as required by law for school purposes, with a levy of probably 3V& mills, thus making a reduction of 1V4 mills In the state school tax. At the same time the state general school fund levy can be reduced from 2 mills, which It has heretofore been, to 2 mills, and on account of the greatly increased valua tions this year, the 2-miU levy will pro duce $200,000 more than was raised on last year's levy. Before discovering the error in the fig ures, the board had practically decided upon a uniform reduction in valuations for state tax purposes of about 40 per cent. This plan will now be abandoned, and the board will confine itself to level ing up the returns from the various coun ties. BLOCKING INJUNCTION DENIED Harriman Loses in Skirmish to Pre vent Hill Entrance to Portland. SEATTLE, Sept 6. The application of the Columbia Valley Railway, a Harri man line, to secure an injunction against the Portland & Seattle Railway Com pany, a Hill road, preventing it from building along the north bank of the Columbia River in its extension to Port land, was denied today by Judge Han ford in the Federal Court.

SHE FOULS BY ACCIDENT German Yacht TlUy VI Gets Second Place, but Wannsee Protests. Xcw Scheme to Test the Skill of Skippers. MARBLEHEAD, Mass., Sept. 6. To day's race, the third of the series between German and American yachts for the Roosevelt cup, was won by Vim, owned by Commodore Park, of the American Yacht Club, of New York. The Vim was also the winner of yesterday's race. The vic tory of. the New York boat today was made certain a mile and a half from the finish by the withdrawal of the Auk. owned by Charles Francis Adams II, of Boston. The Auk withdrew because she fouled the Vim. This was generally bailed as a sportsmanlike act. The Tilly VI (German) was the second boat to finish, but she was protested by the Wannsee (German) because of a foul alleeed at the start. A decision will be announced Saturday. Contest Between Americans. The race today was practically a con test between the American boats Vim and Auk, and it has been many a day since the spectators witnessed a yacht race as closely and cleverly fought. On account of the withdrawal of the Auk, there was no way of ascertaining which one of the two would have won the race. At windward work the Vim. was eaeily the Auk's suoerlor. On the final leg the accident occurred. Skipper Adams saw that he could not run through the lee of the Vim and he shot his boat across the Vim's stern. He misjudged the distance and the Auk's forestay hooked into the outhaul cleat on the Vim's boom, which bent almost double and caused her to Jib. In order to get back to the course. Skipper Buck name of the Vim was obliged to come about. Mr. Adams at once sailed back to his moorings. The sailing of Tlllie VI was the most skillful shown by the foreigners. Scheme tq Exchange Crews. The W'annsee's sail was changed a bit, but nothing was done to make it better, and old American yachtsmen expressed the. opinion that the foreign yachts would never win with their sails cut so flat. Some of the yachtsmen have suggested that before the German yachts leave a race be arrangd for all six yachts with the crews changed, the Germans sailing the American yachts. The elapsed time: Vim, 2:51:31: Tilly VI, 2:53:19; Caramba, 2:58:59; Wannsee, 2:59:50; Gleuckauf . IV, i:01:41. Gans Will Fight Brltt Next. - 9AN FRANCISCO, Sept. 6.

For the cure of Stricture we have discovered and devel oped a system that gives all the benefits of surgery without the pain that surgery Involves; a painless system of curing Stricture which acts directly upon the affected parts; dissolves the abnormal tissue, stops all Irritation and allays all Inflammation of the Bladder and Prostate. Varicocele is a diseased condition of the scrotal veins. It may be caused by blows, kicks, falls, heavy lifting, mumps, early Indiscretion or may be a symptom only of some special weakness. The proper treatment consists of local application for the purpose of dispelling the stagnant blood and contracting the swollen veins, as well as internal medication to strengthen the nerves which govern the blood supply to these veins.
