THE MORNING OREGONIAN. SATURDAY, AUGUST 17, 1907.
OREGON
RHUS TO
MEET IN THE EAST
Multnomah Club Will Send
Sprinter Smithson to
Jamestown Fair.
KELLY HAS TRY-OUT TODAY
If He Makes 100 Yards In Ten Sec
onds He AVill Run at Jamestown
Under Colors of the Uni
versity of Oregon.
The University of Oregon has decided
to send Dan Kelly to the A. A. U. games at
the Jamestown exposition, but first he
must make 1(10 yards in 10 seconds at a
try-out which will te held at the State
University this afternoon. Forrest Smith
son, his old-time rival, is also erotnfr to
compete at the world's fair, for he is to
wear the colors of the Multnomah Ama
teur Athletic Club of Portland, and in the
event that Kelly is successful this after
noon, , the two will meet as rivals at
Jamestown.
Smithson left Portland Thursday for
Notre Dame, Ind., and last nteht the
directors of Multnomah Club ratified the
proposition to send him to the exposition
to run under Multnomah's colors. This
course was decided upon almost Immed
iately after Dan Kelly had turned the
club's offer down in order to uphold the
colors of his varsity. In this matter the
clubmen do not censure, Kelly, for they
believe that it is his duty to run for
Orefton. but when they brought up the
proposition of sending him to the ex
position, they had not figured on the
university taking the same action,
and when the Oregon champion decided
to embrace his college s offer, they cast
about for a man to represent the club.
It was especially desired to have a
Multnomah man at Jamestown in order
to maintain the prominence the club se
cured at the time of the Lewis and
Clark Exposition games, and in line with
this policy it was decided that Forrest
3mithson was the man for the place.
Smithson Has Beaten Kelly.
Smithson is a sprinter of no mean
ability, and by many is rated as a su
perior man to the champion, Kelly.
Smithson was the first real sprinter Kelly
ever met on the track, and during the
parly days of Kelly's career, he was de
feated frequently by the clever Smithson,
who was then a pupil of the late "Dad"
Trine and was a student at the Oregon
Agricultural College. Those who wit
nessed the contests between the two now
celebrated athletes were prone to ad
mire Smithson in preference to the Baker
City lad, but then Kelly was a green
man and had not the advantage of train
ing such as had the Corvallls runner.
Even now. and in fact ever since Kelly
made the record which gives him the
title of premier amateur runner of the
world, there are many who doubt his
ability to defeat Smithson. or in fact
to make the hundred yards' dash in 10
seconds, let alone his world's mark of
9 3-5 seconds.
Kelly made his mark at Spokane and
it was upheld by the Amateur Athletic
I'nlon. which body is the recognized head
of amateur athletics in the United States,
and since he has been so signally recog
nized, it is up to him to prove his worth.
Kelly is undoubtedly a splendid athlete
and should do his constituents proud, but
it must be remembered that he is going
to a climate to which he is not accus
tomed and the conditions there will not
be as congenial as he finds them, in the
Northwest, which has been his home ever
Flnce his boyhood. These and other
things are to be reckoned with later, to
gether with the fact that he will be
matched against the best of the Eastern
athletes, who have undergone years of
hard training and are now in the very
best possible shape for a hard contest.
Many of these men are accustomed to
going the distance in 10 1-5 at every try
out, and if Kelly can make that time in
the East, he will be doing better than a
great many of his most ardent admirers
expect, but that mark will not win the
event.
The Multnomah Club, in backing
Smithson, entertains hopes of their, man
landing at least a place in the big events
at the Exposition, and as he has had the
benefit of a year at Notre Dame, during
which time he successfully competed
against a number of the Eastern colle
giate stars, he is much more fit for a hard
contest at Jamestown than is Kelly, who
has never been in that section of the
country.
Jack King Doubts Kelly's Ability.
One local authority. Jack King, who
lias trained athletes for many years, is
emphatic in expressing his belief that
Kelly will not be placed in the coming
A. A. V. games. In expressing his views
last night King compared Kelly's
chances as follows: "Dan Kelly cannot
make 100 yards in less than 10 seconds,
and. indeed, I doubt whether he can do
it in that time. I will contribute $100
toward his expenses if he will come to
Portland and run the distance before a
committee of newspaper men, and if their
judgment of the contest is that he has
made the required 10 seconds, I will
gladly contribute the money. He cannot
do it. Of this I am positively convinced,
and while he is a fine athlete, he Is a
far better man in the jumps than he is
on the track.
"I do not wish to belittle Kelly in any
way and am making this statement based
on my judgment acquired by years of
experience in handling, footracers. If
Kelly would confine himself to the jumps
he should be a champion. I was not pres
ent at the Spokane meet and therefore
do not wish to refer to his record at that
meet. Another wager I will make is that
Kelly does not gain a place at .James
town, and this offer stands open to any
one."
If he is successful today, Kelly will
leave Monday, acompanled by Trainer
Kill Hayward, for Jamestown. They will
journey by easy stages, making stops at
Denver, Kansas City and other places,
and expect to reach the Exposition sev
eral days before the games, which are
scheduled for September 7 and 8. Smith
son will train a few days at Notre Dame
and then continue on to Jamestown.
PERIL IN AIR BRAKES?
Many Train Wrecks Caused by Old
Appliances, Say Westinghouse Men.
Chicago Record-Herald.
Many railroad wrecks are caused by the
inability of the air brakes now in gen
eral use to control a fast train, according
to statements credited to certain officials
of the Westinghouse Air Brake Company.
The assertion is causing anxiety for sev
eral of the big railway managers.
It is stated in this connection that the
subject of air brakes will be taken up by
the American Railway Association at its
semi-annual meeting at Jamestown in
October. The committee of safety ap
pliances will be instructed to look into
the matter and make an exhaustive re
port. The movement has been started, it is
said, because of the stand taken by the
Westinghouse people to the effect that the
railroads are slow to secure the latest in
ventions in safety appliances. It is stated
that the Westinghouse people have per
fected a new high-speed brake which has
been thoroughly tested and proved to be
at least 60 per cent more effective than
the present brake in general use.
Two years ago the Pennsylvania Road
made exhaustive experiments with the new
brake, with the result that it was adopted
as standard on that road. Despite the
recent disclosures regarding graft on the
Pennsylvania, it 13 a recognized fact in
railway circles that the road usually is the
first to adopt new operating devices.
After the Pennsylvania's exhaustive ex
periments with the new high-speed brake
the Westinghouse . people thought that
railroads generally would adopt it. The
Santa Fe has just finished a series of ex
periments with the new brake and, it is
understood, has refused to make a change
on the ground that the old brake is able
to control any train on that road.
Railroad experts say a train running 90
miles an hour and weighing 600 tons can
not be brought to a standstill under 3000
feet. Consequently the engineer of the
Twentieth Century Limited on the Lake
Shore recentyl. when he saw a freight
train across the track, realized that it
-would be futile to try to stop It. He ac
cordingly opened his throttle and went
through a box car that proved to be
empty. His exploit resulted in little dam
age to the train and none to the pas
sengers. Many occasions arise when it is neces
sary to stop the fast passenger trains
under the limit placed by the old brake,
and in such cases the new high-speed air
brake would spell safety. None but the
operating men know how frequent are
these occasions.
YEAR FOR 3-YEAR-OLDS
All Turf Sensations of Year Come
From Them.
NEW YORK. Aug. 16. That the pres
ent year is one marked by an ex
ceptionally high class of 3-year-olds
is evidenced more and more
each day, and was recalled strongly by
the victory of McCarter In the Sara
toga handicap of last Monday. The
Newcastle stable's colt was carrying
far more than the scale weight, in pro
portion to Running Water and Dan
delion, yet he came from behind and
beat them both. Moreover, although
he won by a head in a drive, he was
pulling away at the end. .
Sensations of the year have prac
tically all been 3-year-olds. Peter
Pan's work was wonderful until he
struck himself, and the ease -with
which Charles Edward reels olT dis
tance routes in fast time points to
him as a coming performer of merit if
he keeps sound. Frank Gill and Mont
gomery are both colts of as high class
as is usually shown in their division
each year, while Ballot, Cabochon, Su
perman and Zambesi are all above the
mark of the average season.
Two-year-olds are not so much In
evidence, although the season started
oft as if the year was to see a great
array of youngsters. Colin stands out
by himself, and probably is the best
colt since the days of Domino or Com
mando. Frizette. Mombasa, Notasulga,
Fair Play, Megg's Hill and others are
good Juveniles, but do not seem of par
ticularly sensational ability.
The year will doubtless go down In
turf history as a "3-year-old season."
And it may be that the continued vic
tories of the younger horses over those
of the handicap division will result in
an altering of the scale.
Many owners have contended that
the scale of the middle year gives, un
due advantage to 3-year-olds in the
matter of -weight. Inasmuch as a 3-year-old
midway in the season is about
as good as he ever is, on the average,
it would seem that there might be
something in this claim.
The scale of weight for 2-year-olds,
late In the season, also comes in for
some comment. A well-handled 2-year-old,
in Sepetmber and October, Is gen
erally about as able as he is the fol
lowing Spring, at the start of training.
The ease with which the youngsters
hold their own and more at six fur
longs, and even up to a mile, with the
older division, leads many owners to
petition for a change In weights.
They assert that the number of races,
given exclusively for juveniles, makes
it unfair to give them the advantage in
contests for all ages. They claim that
It has something to do with the fre
quent lack of good horses in the handi
cap division, as the older animuls are
often drummed out seeking to over
come a hopeless allotment of weight.
Many well-posted observers believe
that such a change may be made by
both turf bodies in the near future.
Brighton's Derby, of August 3, in
point of lack of starters bears out the
history of the race. For small fields
It probably is equaled by one similar
event the Latonia Derby.
Twice in Latonla's history two horses
went to the post, and once it resulted
In a walkover, when Lieutenant Gibson
cantered around the track ' In 1900.
Newton and Ronold, the sole starters,
finished as named In 1892, and Han
D'Or beat Plaudit in the two-horse race
Of 1898.
Twice in its history the Brighton
Derby has had fields of three. Water
Color, All Green and Mortallo finished
as named in the stake of 1901, while
Hyphen, Major Daingerfield and
Hempstead had things to themselves in
1902. Fields have always been small In
this race, but today may possibly set
a new record in this line.
Many Derbies, including the Ken
tucky, St Louis. Tennessee and lesser
classics of smaller tracks, have hud but
three starters In a race, one of, the
most noted of which was that at St.
Louis in 1897, when Ornament beat
Buckvidere and Typhoon. The small
est number ever starting In the Ameri
can Derby at Chicago was seven.
Machines That Almost Think.
Technical Wrorld. '
In the effort to save labor, the most
wonderful mechanical devices, con
stantly are being Invented: so wonder
ful that many of them seem actually to
perform the human operation of think
ing. It probably is a safe statement
that nine-tenths of the -world's work
today is done by machinery. When,
recently, one of the great . railroads
which has terminals fronting New Tork
harbor, introduced a new boat-loading
machine by which a carload of coal is
turned bottom upward and dumped Into
a barge, there was much discussion as
to what would become of the 4500
workmen who were displaced by the
new contrivance. Whp.t for that mat
ter, it might be asked, has become of
the hundreds of million of workmen
whom all the machinery of the world
has "displaced?" Of course, they have
never existed, for no number of. human
laborers could do what machinery does.
When a new device is Invented which
performs the work of a hundred or
more human hands, the human hands
are released for other effort. So the
world Jogs along, merrily or sadly, and
the more "brains" its progressively- im
proving machinery displays the more
It waxes in cumulative wealth.
The devotion of a stork to Its young has
been strikingly shown during a fire at
Bawl. The nest was set on fire by a spark
from a chimney, but the mother bird re
fused to leave the fledglings, and all were
burned to death.
SURVEY IS FINISHED
Steamer Arago Returns From
Duty at Coos Bay.
CHANNEL LITTLE CHANGED
Water Is 20 Feet Deep on the Bar.
Several Buoys Will Be Changed.
Survey Kx tends a Distance
of Over 1 4 Miles.
The Government steamer Arapro, Cap
tain Tyler, which has been engaged In
making a survey of the Coos Bay bar and
the bay as far up as Marsh field, returned
to Portland yesterday. The Arago has
been absent for the past three months
and has made a thorough survey of Coos
Bay for a distance of 14 miles from the
bar. It la the first thorough survey of
that stretch of water taken for a number
of years.
A few changes will be made necessary
in the location of the buoys which mark
the entrance to the harbor. This Is due
to the depths of water now as compared
with the depths when the survey was

ACCIDENT TO SAXTA MARIA
Oil-Tank Steamer Nearly Goes
Ashore in San Francisco Bay.
SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 16. The oil
tank, steamer Santa Maria, Captain Dar
ling, outward bound for Port Harford,
barely missed leaving her bones on the
same spot on which the steamship Ala
meda struck several years ago. Trouble
was experienced in the Are hold of the
Santa Maria and she became unmanage
able. The tug Sea Rover, inward bound, was
hailed, but was unable to manage the
big steamer. The Sea Witch later came
to the aid of the Sea Rover and for 11
hours the tugs stood by the steamer. At
last reports she was out of danger.
(The Santa Maria Is a Union OH tank
steamer known here, and Is one of the
largest that ever entered the Columbia
River. She has four masts and two fun
nels. She was formerly the steamship
Minnetonka and was built at Cleveland,
O.. in 1901. She is a sister ship to the
Santa Rita. She has mad several trips
to the Columbia River. Of late she has
been operating between Port Harford and
Salinas Cruz.)
ST. LOriS TAKEN FOR GRAIN
French Bark Will Be Loaded Out
ward by Kerr, Gilford & Co.
Kerr. Gifford & Co. yesterday chartered
the French bark St. Louis to carry grain
from Portland to Queenstown or Fal
mouth for orders. The vessel Is now en
route from Newcastle, N. S. W., for the
Columbia River, with coal, and will ar
rive near the latter part of the month.
The St. Louis Is an associated ship and
commanded the rate set by that body.
The St. Louis sailed from Newcastle,
N. S. W., for the Columbia River 57 days
ago. She should be showing up off the
Coast before the end of the month. The
master of the Vincennes reports fair
weather all the way up the Coast from
the Horn. Under ordinary conditions the
St. Louis should make the run up the
Coast in less than 70 days. The Colonel
Vlllebois de Mauriel is about two weeks
ahead of the St. Louis.
RATES NOT TO BE CHANGED
Port of Portland Commission Makes
Final Decision.
The Port of Portland Commission, at its
regular meeting decided not to make any
distinction in the matter of rates as re
quested by the North Pacific Steamship
Company The latter company, owners of
the Roanoke, and the Geo. W. Elder, filed
an application for special rates on their
vessels. The letter stated that the com
pany intended to place another steamer In
service as soon as the Nome rush was
over and that they would have all their
work done here instead of in California
ports.
A difference of $5192.72 on wood bill was
turned over to a committee, with power
to act. The discussion is between the
Port of Portland and the Banflcld Fuel
Company.
The use of the tug John McCraken was

WHOOPING COUGH WILL GET YOU,
IF YOU DON'T WATCH OUT
TT LTHOUGH the City Health De-
i partment records show that not a
single case of whooping cough has
been, reported, as required by law,
for over two weeks; and although
various doctors say that there is little
or no whooping cough in Portland,
still a casual inquiry located 13 cases
within one hour.
There are some strict laws on the
books requiring physicians to report
contagious diseases, deaths and births;
but these same laws are largely
ignored by doctors and only mildly
enforced by the Health Department.
At the present time, to the knowl
edge of many laymen, there are a
number of cases of whooping cough
in this city, still not one case has been
reported this "month, as required by
law. Testerday City Health Officer
Pohl issued notices that hereafter
such diseases must be promptly re
ported by doctors or she would enforce
the law, which provides in some cases
for a heavy fine.
A portion of the city charter apply
ing to such cases reads as follows:
"The communicable diseases danger
ous to the public health, which shall
be immediately reported to the Health
Officer are hereby declared to be:
Smallpox, variola, chlckenpox, bubonic
plague, leprosy, diphtheria, membran
ous croup, cholera, scarlet fever,
measles, whooping cough, erysipelas,
tuberculosis and typhoid fever.
"Any. person who shall violate any
of the .provisions of this ordinance
shall on conviction before the Munici
pal Judge, be fined not less than $5
nor more than $300 or imprisonment in
the City Jail not less than five days
nor more than 90 days for each of

ness. My cures are absolutely
permanent and no ill effects what
ever can follow my treatment.
Contracted Disease
I have reduced the time required
for curing contracted disorders
about one-half. This Is an im
portant achievement. It replaces
danger with safety. It forestalls
chronic complications. It removes
the Infection and . inflammation
before that vital center, the pros
tate gland, can become involved.
To many men it means the dif
ference between perfect health
and a lifetime of misery and func
tional weakness. My method is
mine alone. My treatment is orig
inal. In some features it resem
bles the ordinary. In its chief
essentials it is different. In re
sults it Is entirely different. It ia
safe, prompt and thorough.
The above, together with Or
ganic Weakness. Nerve Debilita
tion. Lost Vigor, Specific Blood
