COMMUTERS VERSUS BEAVERS
Oakland Will Open Six-Game Series
Here This Afternoon.
The Commuters. Rip Van Haltern's
bunch of Oakland balltossers, are due to
arrive this morning, and will open a
series with the Beavers this afternoon.
Rip's gang has ousted the Seals from
the second rung on the percentage ladder,
and if the Angels are not careful the
Commuters might climb higher.
V Oakland brings along five pitchers
Rfcldy, Gates, Hogan. Wright and Carnes.
The last man was one of Hi Henry Ber
ry's workers, but was traded to Rip for
Ruby Red Randolph. Affer the deal was
completed the Red Boy decided that he
didn't care to go to the city in the orange
4 1. . . . I . ! r. .
League. It is probable, however, - that
Randolph will go back to his berth with
Pa Dillon.
The Commuters have been doing great
work In the last two series with the Seals.
In the two series they captured eight out
of 14 games, through these victories
climbing to second place.
J. R. Burdett, a catcher and outfielder
who played with Spokane this season, has
put In an appearance, and will probably
play with the McCredieites. He is a man
about the size of Basse-, probably a little
heavier. He has a good-reputation in
the Northwest League and has the looks
of a ball player. He will probably be
used in center field, to take the position
Seft by Ray Lovett.
Yesterday was an off day for the play.
rs, and a Ashing party was organized.
Anson Randolph Mott. better known as
Percy, Carle Moore and Kdward Kin
sella were the members.' The balltossers
took to the Columbia Slough with the
Intention of making a catch of black
bass. They had figured out the pleas
ant smile that the landlady would wear
when she saw the large collection of
.finny beauties spread out for. supper.
But the players didn t iigure that .black
bass would rather be in the cool waters
of the Slough than in a frying pan on a
kitchen range, afterwards to be eaten
by a hungry bunch of ball players.
So Percy and Carl and Klnsy made the
trip, but didn't catch any bass. Instead.
Mott fished out three horned wlgglers of
the species Amlurus Natalis, commonly
known as catfish. But Carl Moore fared
even worse. He caught one sucker.
And when the crowd wandered about to
the corner they had little to say and
went to a restaurant to eat. No fish
supper for those boys before Friday.
More Days for Women at Baths.
Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday after
noons the Portland Public Baths will be
reserved for women and girls from 3:30
to 6 P. M. A large number of young
nvomen and girls frequent the baths
very oxen afternoon, and It was found
that the days set aside for them did not
accommodate all. The recent wreck of
the Columbia brought to light the fact
that women often display more presence
of mind In time of danger than men, and
that If more of the women on the wrecked
vessel had been able to swim the death
list would have been lighter.

RUGBY FOOTBALL THE GAME
Lanagan Converted After Seeing
Australians Play It.
STANFORD UNIVERSITY, Palo Alto,
Cal., Aug. 3. James Lanagan, Stan
ford's coach. Is coming home from Aus
tralia converted to an enthusiastic ad
mirer of the game of Rugby football
as it is played by the college teams
of the Antipodes. At least Dr. David
Starr Jordan says so. Dr. Jordan, who
arrived Tuesday on the liner Mongolia,
says that Lanagan changed his views
completely after feeing a few games
In Aurtralia and has now come to the
conclusion that the Rugby game is the
only form of football that coVlege teams
can expect the public to tolerate. Dr.
Jordan said:
"The game as we have been playing
it Is nothing more or less than a bat
tle, and Is doomed to extinction. The
Australian team that came here did
not play the game as it is played in
the Antipodes. It made certain modi
fications in concession . to what it
thought was wanted in this country.
But the game as it is played in Aus
tralia, the game that the young Aus
tralian begins to play when he is a
small boy, is the game to which we
must come if we wish to keep football
as one of our college sports."
Lanagan. was sent to Australia by
Stanford University to make a study
of the Rugby game. From now on,
says Dr. Jordan, Lanagan will advocate
Rugby unadulterated. A number of
Australian college teams are anxious
to come to this country, and they want
the American college teams to visit
the Antipodes, but Lanagan, says Dr.
Jordan, thinks that it would be better
for the Australians to come here first
and give some exhibitions of the game
that has won him from his allegiance
to the open air -murder fest at which
young America loves to cripple himself.
Lanagan will be here to speak for
himself on the next steamer.
WILL ROW FOR CHAMPIONSHIP
Three-Cornered Sculling Contest Be
tween Pape, Gloss and Lalng.
Alex Pape. the champion single-scull
oarsmen of the Coast; Ed Gloss, the crack
man of the Portland Rowing Club, and
F. H. Lalng, the Vancouver (B. C.) scul
ler who defeated Gloss at the Seattle re
gatta the Fourth of July, , will row a
three-cornered race on the Willamette on
Labor Day. This race will be a part of
the regatta given by the Portland Rowing
Club in honor of the opening of its new
clubhouse.
The three men will probably row at the
Astoria regatta, then come on to Port
land and row here. The race should be
very important, as It will settle once for
all the. claims for the Coast championship
in the single sculls. Gloss, the local man,
has met Pape twice, but has been de
feated both times. In one of the races,
wblch wan held on the river, the men
were obliged to row to a certain point
and turn back and finish at the start.
Gloss was handicapped, as the buoy, to
which he was forced to row, drifted
downstream about 50 feet. Through this
he rowed 100 feet farther than his oppo
nent, Jho other race was held at the
Lewis and Clark Fair Grounds and Gloss
lost through an accident.
Lalng is considered one of the best
single-scull men on the Coast. He de
feated Gloss at the Seattle regatta and
has made a name for himself in the past
two seasons. , -
The club plans to open Its new club
house on Labor Day and give the regatta
in honor of the occasion. The Vancouver
(B. C.) senior four will probably be pres
ent to row against Portland's senior four.
Other races will be arranged. The re
gatta will come off in the afternoon and
a big house-warming party wHl be held
In the evening. The work on the new
house is progressing and everything will
be ready by Labor Day.

Sir Casper Purdon Clarke Expresses
Views on Effect Customs Duties
' Has Upon Importations of
"Works of Art.
NEW YORK, Aug. 5. Sir Casper Pur
don Clarke, director of the Metropolitan
Museum of Art, declared on his arrival
today on the steamer Minnehaha, after
several weeks' tour of Europe, that the
present American tariff on objects of art
is handicapping the development of art
and artists In America.
61 r Purdon said his trip had been
partly for pleasure and partly on business
for the Metropolitan Museum. He said he
had purchased a number of objects for
the museum. Concerning the possible
acquisition of the Rudolph E. Kaho col
lection In Paris, Sir Purdon said nothing.
He admitted that he met J. Plerpont
Morgan several times in Europe and that
Mr. Morgan had made some large pur
chases for his own collections.
Speaking of the effects of the present
tariff on art. he said:
"I believe the American tariff on art
objects has expatriated a good many
wealthy Americans who like artistic
things. I know personally of a number
of instances where wealthy Americans
have gone abroad and purchased houses
in . London and Paris and tur
rounded ' themselves with works of
art, and ttven have decided
to reside abroad permanently because
they could not bring their collections
home without paying a tariff that Is al
most prohibitive. A man does not like to
pay a big sum for a rare work of art
and then have to pay half as much again
for bringing it home.
This same tariff is also a handicap to
the development of American manufac
turers of art. You can import samples
and replicas of old masters ortapestres

houses' to Be . Erected.
SPOKANE, Wash., Aug. 5. (Spe
cial.) Tho new warehouse ticket which
wheat men of the state must do busi
ness by has Just been sprung1 on them
by the alleged Warehouse Trust, and a
great protest is being made. It is
claimed that this ticket is so worded
as to throttle the independent buyer.
It was not until a week or two ago
that the news gradually leaked out
that there would be a 50 per cent in
crease In storage charges. This was
kept quiet, local managers claiming
they didn't know, as they had not re
ceived their tickets. Farmers must
waive all claims for loss by fire, and
it Is said this will raise insurance
rates. The man who gets the grain
must pay for all storing, handling, re
sacklng, twine and other expenses. It
Is claimed that in this last part the
Joker lies.
An independent buyer could be
assessed enough to make the business
prohibitive. Farmers say this thing
was held back until too late to have
any independent houses erected. This
form of ticket calls for a waiver of
damages both against the railroad and
warehouses, which, the growers claim,
shows that both of these interests got
together on making out the form.
With the increase In prices and the re
strictions placed on trade, the growers
say they are absolutely at the mercy
of the combination.

Men used to think
that old clothes would
do for vacation, any
thing was good enough!
But times have
changed. Now one
wants to look well and
suitable for every occa
sion. We have the outfit -for
the journey and for
each separate sport,
and for any special oc-
casion that may turn
up.
