Trot Card for Today.
Another thrilling five-heat race In
which anotnor North Pacific Coast
record was smashed: the chopping of a
second off her own record by College
Maid: a 2:20 pace in which every heat
beat 1:10; a trotting: event for three-yeer-e-Ms
which came within three
quarters of a second of breaking; an
other Coast record, and a spectacular
galloping race were features of yester
day's card on the splendid new track
of" th National Paciiie Show at the
Country Club.
It was a great card and the various
events weri witnessed by a good
crowd. The attendance was scarcely as
large s on Portland day. but It was
a decided Increase over the first two
days. Ideal weather and perfect track
conditions aided in making the day one
of the beat of the meet.
College Maid, the guideless pacer,
won the plaudits of the throng by mak
ing her third successive record on this
new track. The mare paced a mile In
I0TH. the fastest mile he has ever
gone. On Monday, her first appearance
on the local track, she lowered her
own record. and Wednesday she
lipped a portion of a second off that.
Yesterday she clipped a clean second
off Wednesday's record of 2:OS',4.
The big; event of the day waa the
1:13 trot. In which regal Berta Mac
contested with the game Day Break
for supremacy. There was a field of
nine, but from the outset It waa plain
thst there were only two in the race.
Five driving heats were necessary to
decide the race. In the first Berta
Mac. vhose spurting qualities are won
derful, had the best of it at the get
away, and led by a length to the quar
ter, with Pay Break leading a trailing
field in the rear. Day Break, however,
eloped the gap gradually and at the
half forged ahead. There the mare
brokn. and the leadership of the geld
ing was never again Jeopardized. He
won easily by two lengths. Berta Mac
finishing second and Emily W. third.
Time. 2:llVi.
Breaks Northwest Record.
As they took the word in the second
heat. Easter Bella was far behind the
field, while Day Break had a good
lead of two lengths as far aa the quar
ter pole. Berta Mac. however, climbed
out of the entangled field and slowly
gained on the leader until the turn at
the stretch, where she passed the horse
and won In a driving finish In the
fastest time that has ever been made
In a trotting race on a Pacific: North
west track. Time. 2:09Vi. The previ
ous Northwest record was 2:10H.
Berta Mac also took the third heat,
but failed to cross the wire first in
the following heats. In this heat she
had a good length to spare as they
scored for the word, but Day Break
eliminated the gap between the quarter
and the half. But the mare regained
her lead after passing the half-mile
pole and turned Into the stretch in that
position. Day Break crowded her fear
fully and had climbed to an even posi
tion when he went off his feet and the
mare won easily. Day Break finishing
second and Nosrl third. Time, 2:09.
Day Break regained his position in
the fourth heat by breaking his own
record. Day Break and the mare got
away evenly and the mare had gained
a length by the time they passed the
quarter. The field trailed far behind.
At the half the horse clung only half
a length behind the mare and they
were reck and neck at the three-quarters.
They swung into the stretch
side by side, and it was a pretty drive
towards the wire until the mare broke
and Day Break won by six lengths,
lowering his record. Time, 2:10.
in the fifth and final heat of the
race Berta Mac set the pace and re
mained a good two lengths ahead of
her adversary until the stretch, when
the horse crowded her so closely that
she again broke and Day Break won
by two lengths. Time, 2:10V,.
Josephine Wins 2:20 Pace.
Josephine, H. E. Rutherford's crack
mare, walked away with the 11000
purse In the 2:29 pacing race. She won
In three successive heats and her
supremacy was never questioned.
Bushnell King, however, a game little
stallion, made a great race and won
second place as easily as the mare did
first. Although the entries were made
In a 2:L'0 cla.is. all the heats were
better than 2:10. Time of the three
heats were 2:09i. ::09 and 2:09i.
In the third race, which was first on
the programme. Katalina won handily.
The race waa for three-year-old trotters
and it came within three-quarters of a
second of breaking a PacJ'ie Coast
record. ,KataI!na took the lOd in the
first heat and kept it. She performed
the same feat in the second, while
Princess Direct finished second and
Bonkln. the third entry, finished third.
Time. 2:17Ai and S:19H.
The Counselor ran away from a
bunch of four In the galloping event.
He and Tank, who ran second, had bad
get-aways, but passed Sallle Goodwin
and Inlnti In the stretch. The Counsel-
ur winning. Tank finishing second, Sal-
lie Goodwin third and Inlnti fourth.
Time. 1 .-!.
Today's programme offers an excep
tionally good series of racing events.
In the 2:0 pacing race practically all
the horses have been entered which
took part m the big rare of Wednes
day, r-harli y D.. Tidal Wave. Magladl
and General Heurtus have, of course,
been eHm.nnted. because they were in
the money in Wednesday's race. The
field is a big one and some of the best
horses In the West have been en
tered. There will also be a special trotting
race, which is not on the card, and a
mile running race.

AGAINST SUNDAY CLOSING
SEVENTH DAY ATVEXTISTS
FIGHT CAMERON'S ORDER.
Declare Tliat as a Matter of Re
ligious Belief They Close Their
Stores on Saturday.
Seventh Day Adventists will Join the
first line of mourners Sunday at the
obsequies over Sunday business privileges
in Portland. Such of them as are in
business say that the misfortune that
District Attorney Cameron is bringing
to the average small dealer is only a
trifle to what will befall them. For. as
a matter of religious belief, they close
down thler places of business on Satur
day. With them Saturday is the Lord's
day, the day of rest and prayer. It is
the day to remember and keep holy. Sun
day Is regarded as merely one of the
days of the week and Intended for busi
ness 'purposes. - Not a few keepers of
small shops axe of this creed.
"Such a law Is unconstitutional," they
say. They point out that the constitu
tion vouchsafes untrammeled religious
belief to any and all alike. Since Satur
day is their day of worship and the law
compels them to close down and recog
nize the day other people see fit to use
as a day of worship, is not such a law
unconstitutional? they ask.
Their meeting to talk over the new Dis
trict Attorney's experiment will be held
at the Women of Woodcraft Hall, Tenth
and Taylor streets, Sunday night at 7:45
o'clock. Different phases of religious lib
erty will be discussed by A. J. Breed,
of Walla Walla; u. ta. jvnarass, or Eng
land; W. F. Martin and Daniel Nettle
ton, of Portland. Both sides, they say,
will be represented.
Just what action will be taken by cigar
stand proprietors, soda fountain operators,
florists and the other small traders af
fected by the Cameron order remains to
be seen. It is known that there has
been some talk of organisation to defeat
the law. But this would hardly afford
relief in the present should Chief
Gritzmacher see fit to have his police
department enforce the District Attor
ney's edict to the letter.
Mr. Cameron continually says that It
is left to the Chief's discretion as to
what arrests shall be made. He says
he has merely called the police Chiefs
attention to the law Involved, which
cites that stores, shops, groceries, bowling
alleys, billiard rooms and tippling houses
or places of amusement must not operate
on the lirst day of the week "commonly
known as Sunday." Theaters, under
taking establishments, livery stables, drug
stores, bakeries and butcher shops are
excepted. The Chief must use his own
Judgment as to what constitutes a shop.
In this he mav find a little aid from the
book of legal definition. Included In every
law library. A shop Is defined as a place
where trade is conducted, a store as a
place where goods are sold for a profit.
All those affected by the order will be
formally notified to close Sunday. It is
expected that the order will be generally
complied with, at least for the time being.
The fine prescribed for violation of the
law Is from S5 to JS0.
Ixises Arm la VToorisa w.
HILJSHORO, Or., Sept. 24." (Special.)
Fred Walton, of Cornelius, lost an arm
today by coming In contact with the
balance wheel of a woodsaw. The mem
ber was so badly crushed that amputa
tion was necessary.
OREGON SWINE ASTONISHES
EXPERT FROM MIDDLE WEST
J. F. Stodder, of Burden, Kan., Judge of Swine Exhibit at Pacific National
Show, Pays Tribute to Coast Product.
WE of the Central West have flat
tered ourselves with the idea that
we can produce the great meat
staples beef, pork and mutton to greater
advantage than It can be done elsewhere.
The formers of that great section of the
United States are thoroughly impressed
with the fact that they can produce more
pork and better pork at less expense than
can be done on any other spot on the
globe.
It was my extreme good fortune to have
spent the past three days critically ex
amining the different breeds of swine ex
hibited at the first and great Pacific Na
tional Show. I cannot recall any initial
show of National proportion, even the
great American Royal at Kansas City or
the International at Chicago, that had aa
complete an entry list as we have here
In Portland 'this week. I presume it is
the proverbial push and energy of the
Pacific slope that has brought about so
desirable a condition.
Fat barrows of different breeds have
been In the show ring that unquestionably
would top the Kansas City market. To
produce them in the corn belt would re
o,ulra several monxhs-of lull feed on coin.

will close at noon today, and the pupils

Into Oregon from the East. The follow
ing members of this herd will go on the
block: Portland Bryan, 99,344; Black
Satinette; Black Van. 117.624; General
I wish some of oar Kansas farmers would
take notice that these hogs would hardly
know an ear of corn If they should see
It. And I am told that some of these
were put in high show condition while
running out on the stubble.
In the breeding classes all of the lead
ing breeds of both lard and bacon hogs
are represented. Including the Berkshire,
Poland China. Duroc Jersey, Chester
White, Essex and Yorkshire. I note that
many exhibitors have been East and
bought as good as they could find to add
to their collections. I also note that many
of these same hogs have been turned
down in this week's showing, the prefer
ence being for swine bred on the Coast.
The lesson is plain and flattering to the
producers of the Far West.
Climatic and grazing conditions to
gether with the great variety of suitable
concentrates can not fail to make the
breeding of hogs a profitable business and
a pleasure as well. J. F. STODDER.

SHOOTS FRIEND FOR DEER
Jchanes Hjorteland Kills Albert Ol
sen While Stalking Big Game.
SEASIDE!, Or., Sept. 24. (Special.)
Mistaking his friend for a deer, Johanes
Hjorteland shot and killed Albert Olsen,
Wednesday morning, near Push, seven
miles west of here.
The men had been hunting daily for
some time after bear, elk and deer, and
had met with much success, as they had
a plan whereby one would stop on a
ridge while the other would go to the
end of a canyon and beat the game up.
Both knew the exact lay of the land,
and with Olsen on the ridge Hjorteland
started to beat the brush in he canyon
by throwing stones.
When nearing the point where the
nuns was to bs killed by Olsen, but
several hundred feet lower, Hjorteland
saw something moving In the brush and

ACES
took a shot at it. The object made a
plunge, and as it went over a bluff he
shot it again. He then cried out to Olsen
to come down as he had a big buck.
As he did not come, Hjorteland circled
