iSiaff Correspondence.) Portland 6, Chi
cago 6. Well. It seems as if we were
off on the rigrht foot. It took nine hard
toiiRht innings to trim the White Sox
here this afternoon, but. when the final
tret came. McCredle'e new recruit were
th'-re like chiming bells. Casey came
through in' the eighth Inning with one
of his old. rellahle. timely wallops, with
McC'redle and Walsh ringing Chicago's
doorbell. Then Just before the curtain
was rung down, Ole Johnson banged
one through the Inner garden, Bassey's
sacrifice shoved him to second- Kennedy
marker! a woozy one on the proboscis
and Johnson came rambling home with
' the winning run.
Marshall Proves a Stayer.
MoCredie sent Marshall against the
Whlte Sox. and, although he was hit
hard in one canto, he madn good. Mar
shall had one bad inning, the second. He
was touched up for four hits, two for
extra cushions, but there was a boot or
two in the melee, so this helped Chicago
chase four runs over the pan. The
Portlands went into the game "dead
sore," but showed the "never die" spirit
and it was that which won for them.
The Sox Jumped on Marshall in the sec
ond inning and potted him for two sin
gleg, a double and a triple. This would
have been enough to make a less game
youngster quit. Marshall is not that
kind. He settled down after this, kept
the . hits scattered and. with brilliant
fielding by McCredle, Malloy and Bassey.
was able to pull out the game. He made
two nice singles and a sacrifice that
helped in the scoring.
Story of the Scoring.
Portland got its first run in the third.
Walsh hit for two bases and he scored
on Marshall's single. The next fell to
us in the fourth. In the eighth Bassey
hit to the fence for three cushions and
Kennedy scored him on a long fly. Mc
Credle walked and Walsh was safe on a
boot. Then came Casey's biff along first
base line, scoring McCredle and Walsh.
This tied the score nnd the Santa Bar
bara fans went wild. . In the closing chap
ter Juhnson packed ono between third
and jhort. Bassey sent him to second
and then Kennedy's hit brought him
home. Chicago used two pitchers in its
mad scramble to win.
MoCredie will rem" Bloomfield against

MAKE WOOD LAST YEARS
Use or Preservatives Approved by
lVrestry Service.
WASHINGTON. D. C, Feb. 29. It Is
estimated that a fence post, which un
der ordinary circumstances will last
for perhaps two years, will, if given
preservative treatment costing about 10
cents, last 18 years. The service of
other timbers, such as railroad ties,
telephone poles, and mine props, can
be doubled and often trebled by Inex
pensive preservative treatment. Today,
when the cost of wood is a big: item
to every farmer, every stockman, every
railroad manager to everyone, tn fact,
who must use timber where It is likely
to decay this is a fact which should
be carefully considered.
It is easy to see that if the length of
time timbers can be used is doubled,
only half as much timber will be re
quired as before and only one-half as
much money will need to be spent in
the purchase of timber. Moreover,
many woods which were for a long
time considered almost worthless can
be treated, and thus made to last as
long as the scarcer and more expensive
kinds.
Of the actual saving in dollars and
cents through preservative treatmtnt,
a fence post such as was mentioned at
the beginning might serve as one ex
ample. The post is of loblolly pine,
and costs, untreated, about 8 cents,
or. Including the cost of setting, 14
cents. It lasts about two years. Com
pounding Interest at 5 per oent, the
annual charge of such a post Is 7.53
cents; that is. It costs 7.53 cents a
year to keep the post in service. Pre
servative treatment costing 10 cents
will increase its length of life to about
IS years. In this case the total cost
of the post, set, is 24 cents, which
compounded at 5 per cent, gives an
annual charge of 2.04 cents. Thus the
saving due to treatment is S.49 cents
a year. Assuming that there are 200
posts per mile, there Is a saving each
year for every mile of fence of a sum
equivalent to the interest on $219. 80.
In the same way preservative treat
ment will -increase the length of life
of a loblolly pine railroad tie from
five years to 12 years and will reduce
the annual charge from 11.52 cents to
9.48 cents, which amounts to saving
of $58.75 per mile.
It ia estimated that 150,000 acres are
required each year to grow timber for
the anthracite coal mines alone. The
average life of an untreated mine
prop Is not more than three years. By
proper preservative treatment It can
be prolonged by many times this fig
ure. Telephone and telegraph polea,
which in -ten or 13 years, or even less,,
decay so badly at the ground line that
they have to be removed, can, by a
simple treatment of their butts, be
made to last 20 or 25 years. Sap shin
gles, which are almost valueless In
their natural state, can easily be
treated and made to outlast even
painted shingles of the most decay
resistant woods. Thousands of dollars
are lost every year by the so-called
"bluing" of freshly-sawed sapwood
lumber. This can be prevented by
proper treatment, and at a cost so
small as to put it within the reach
of the smallest operator.
In the South the cheap and abun
dant loblolly pine, one -of the easiest
of all - woods to treat, can by proper
preparation be made to take the place
of the high-grade longleaf pine for
many purposes. Black and tupelo
gums and other little-used woods have
a new and increasing importance be
cause of the possibility of preserving
them from decay at small cost. In
the Northeastern and Lake States are
tamarack, hemlock, beech, birth and
maple, and the red and black oaks, all
ot which by proper treatment may
help to replace the fast-dimlrilshtng
white oak and cedar. In the states of
the Mississippi Valley the pressing
fence-post problem may be greatly re
lieved by treating such species as Cot
tonwood, willow and hackberry.
Circular 139 of the Forest Service.
"A Primer of Wood Preservation," 1
and how it can be retarded, describes
briefly certain preservatives and pro
cesses, gives examples of the savings
In dollars and cents and tells what
wood preservation can do In the
future. The circular can be had free

SOUGHT RELEASE BY BRIBE
Chiua Malfes Statement on Seizure
of Tatsu Maru.
SHANGHAI, March 11. The follow
ing official statement has been issued
by the Chinese government with re
gard to the seizure of the Tatsu Maru:
The Tatsu Mara, which is of deep
dra-upht, anchored flrrt off Chun Chow ut
eid of the Portuguese limit, but changed
her anchorage within two hours to Kim-how.
The Chinese naval police, accompanied by
the customs foreign officers, boarded the
ship and found her hold open and a, crane
in position rtady to discharge the carg-o
which consisted of f4 cases of rifles and 40
cases of ammunition.
The Chinese took, nautical observations,
clearly determining the whip's position with
in Chinese waters. Officers were left on
board for the night and a telegram was sent
tn canton to the Viceroy for nn struct ions.
The Japanese captain twice offered bribes
or the surrender of the cargo, provided the
ehlp was not selxed.
The Chinese oft'icec, observing that Portu
guese police boats were hovering around the
steamer feared complications and wrong
fully hauled down the Japanese flag.
At 4 o'clock on the second afternoon no
Portuguese officials having boarded the
ship, she proceeded up the Cantos- River
and the next morning the Chinese officials
informed the captain of the steamer that the
customs regulations provide for the holding
of a Joint inquiry within SO day, but this
Inquiry was not requested. China, fearing
that Japan was seeking m pretext for war
apologtxed for hauling down the Japanese
Hag and proposes to release the ship only
recognising "force majoure."

SLEEP IN JTHE DESERT
Trying to Keep Awake on China's
Roads and Wolves Near.
Hitherto I have thought that travel
ing by carts over stony roads and stay
ing in Chinese inns at night was the
hardest thing a foreigner traveling in
China was called upon to endure, but
since I have traveled with a caravan of
camels I have changed my. opinion.
The monotony of the desert by day
and the bed of camels' saddle at night.
he evil smell of camels and the slow
ness of their drivers and the acrid
choking of the little fire on which
one's food is cooked none of these
things Is so trying to the foreigners
as the sleepiness which attacks one in
this high region. This to me was a
real torture. Traveling the cold night
with no other company than dull
Chinese, who seem to sleep while walk
ing alongside the camels or while sit
ting on their backs, and being weighed
down by heavy sleepiness, Is the worst
thing I hava endured.
You sit on your horse, and. In spite
of every effort, fall asleep. Presently
you wake up and find .yourself on the
ground with your horse standing be
wildered at your side, wondering
whether you are alive or dead. Then
you try to keep yourself awake by
walking and talking a bit to the camel
drivers, but you soon find that they are
just as sleepy as yourself. A few
words are exchanged, and then you
are too tired to open your mouth to
talk or even to think of anything but
Bleep, sweet sleep. Oh. or just a few
minutes there at the roadside in the
soft sand! But no, you must go on
and fight against this desire. It is too
dangerous to sleep by the roadside on
the ground. The caravan cannot wait,
and your servant would not watch
over you; he would soon- fall asleep
like yourself. The wolves would then
have an easy time.
Yet in spite of all this reasoning
you feel as if you were drawn to the
ground by the power of a thousand
strong magnets, and soon - yield to
sleep again. Suddenly your' watchful
horse, whose reins you have- kepf
slung around your neck tills is a wise
thing to do pulls up. starts and Jerks
you wide awake. You Jump up, not
knowing where you are for some sec
onds, but you ee your horse trembling
and realize that danger is near.
For a few minutes you are fully
awake, and feel glad and refreshed.
You Jump on your horse End catch up
with the caravan, which has gone a
few II (a li Is 654 yards) ahead.
After another ten 11 or so, sleep
creeps on again like a huge boa con
strictor embracing you in its irresist
ible grasp.' The same fight has thee to
be fought over again. Then at last
the caravan arrives at the halting
place for the night.
Frailties of English Style.
Minneapolis Journal.
- English "as she is wrote" is again
attracting attention and again the fra
ilties of authors In this regard are being
exposed. Several Harvard and Yale pro
fessors who have written books or pam
phlets are being made the victims of de
structive criticism, but the critics, to
make them feel easier, are going back
and showing that more distinguished
authors Wtrayed similar weaknesses in
handling the -language.
One commentator haa shown that in
"Kenilworth," Scott had somebody's
mother dytng In Infancy. .Of course, it
could not have been the mother, but
then Scott didn't say clearly' which it
was. Stevenson got off this ' one: "An
advantage over whom he speaks with."
Fielding. ' 'Thackeray, Lamb, Arnold,
Lecky, Ruskin and Spencer sometimes
forgot to put In their subject, but hur
ried on to the predicate.
Some of those authors, it may be ex
plained, were originally newspaper men,
and never got over bad habits. But
Fielding. Scott, George Eliot, Macaulay,
Lecky and Spencer never were reporters.
Possibly the . newspapers are not re
sponsible for .all the bad English In the
world.

UNTO every generation of Ameri
. cans George Washington is justly
held to be the purest figure in
history a superb example of the
perfect citizen a just and righteous
ruler and "a light for after time."
This commanding personality had a
magnificent physique. He stood over six
feet in his stockings, was remarkable for
horsemanship, agility and strength the
finest gentleman and athlete of his day.
His constitution was of iron and he
knew how to keep it so. His biographers
declare that in eating and in drinking as
in all things he was normal; enjoying
the juice of.the malt all the days of his
life. He drank it around campfires, as
well as in his own home and upon social
and state occasions.
Furthermore, upon his Mount Vernon
plantation he had a brew house, as was
the regular custom of wealthy Virginians.
