BATTLEFIELD IN PORTLAND Two Stronjse;-t Trams In Star Will C'Iah on Multnomah Field. Game to Be Made Annual Kvent of Future. W. J PETRAI.V Next' Saturday Portland will be turned over to the collegians, for on that day the student of the Univer sity of Oregon and the Oregon Ajpri rulrural College will aemble In this city to witness the snnual gridiron struggle between the two leading edu cational Institutions of the state. Commencing Saturday, and annually hereafter, the two football teams will meet In Portland. This decision was reached by mutual agreement made last Winter, both institutions being represented at a conference In this city. The derision to play . the game in Portland was brought about in view of the fact that the hading city of the state desired the Kame. Furthermore, this city is regarded as neutral ground, and also contributes a large percent age of the funds which are required for the support of the two Institutions. In view of thse arguments, the rep resentatives of the University and the Agricultural College readily reached tne conclusion that Portland should be the scene of the annual game In the future. The Multnomah Amateur Ath letic Club assisted the decision mater ially by agreeing to guarantee the use of Multnomah Field for that game each year, and this act on the part of the clubmen has served further to cement the athletic friendship existing be tween it and the educational institu tions. College aine Drawn Best. College football Is the kind that Is now generally appealing to the pub lic, for the enthusiasm aroused and the spirit displayed cause the average cit izen, even though he nr. completely forgotten his own college days, to be come interested in the college boys and their sports. Then there is only one kind of football calculated to meet with the approval of t..e general pub lic, and that Is the college game played by college teams, or by athletic clubs whose representatives on the gridiron are former college players. For a true sample of how football should be played a visit to Multnomah Field next Saturday will assure the most skeptical that the game Is well worth the time and the price of admis sion. The contending teams represent the two Institutions of which Oregon Is especially proud. Both institutions have student bodies comprising the sons and daughters of Oregon's best families. In addition, each represents a different branch of education and each has Its rivalries as well as Its confidence in its own superiority In every department. Practically the entire student body of both Oregon and Corvallis will come to Portland .Saturday on special trains, and In addition. ea--h of the enterprising homes of the two organizations can be expected to send at least 1) citizens to witness the first meeting of the teams In Portland. The mistaken idea seems to prevail in home quarters that Oregon possesses the weaker team this year. This idea Is absolutely tcroumlless. and while the State University team has dropped two games this year it is by no means cer tain that the Oregon Agricultural Col lege will be victorious on Saturday. In fact it Is more than likely that Ore gon mill surprise her rival in a manner that will bring joy to the alumni student body of Eugene College. Oregon Will Send Strong Team. Oregon has never possessed a team that has performed according to pre cedent or In accordance with the pre dictions of the alleged wise ones, and on t h is ocr ftp ion t hose ho are figuring on takir-tf: the O. A. C. end of a bet had better coneidT extensively before risk ing their coin. Oregon can always be de pended uion to put up her very best quality of football in a game with her old-time rival. On paper the Oregon Agricultural Col lege appears to have the stronger team. Similarly last season the Washington State College was supposed to possess the strongest team In the Pacific North west, yet whrn that eleven went up against Idaho It was defeated by a score of 5 to 4. Idaho, like Oregon this year, hnd Just suffered a crushing defeat, and from this comparison it can be readily surmised that if a man puts in his time trying to dope out football teams he will gain admission to the insane asylum much quicker than by devoting his en ertf to the horse-racing game. The Oregon-Cbrvallla game Saturday, It is exp-cted. will be played before the btggeM crowd ever assembled on Mult norquh Field at a similar performance, and Portland will be Initiated Into the college spirit In a manner that will long be remembered. It Is to be an annual event here and well worth the patronage of the public. The game will be called at 2:30 P. M. Instead of I o'clock, as previously an nounced. BT DEFEAT ORKGPX KI.KVKX PETER MIXED TO LOW Kit O. A. C.'S COLORS. Team Will Br Strengthened for Gamp Here Saturday, and Big Excursion Will Come. UNIVERSITY OP OREOOX. Bnitene. IV.. Nov. lti. (Special. Undaunted by Saturday's defeat at the hands of the crark YVaahlnston eleven. Orepon will fo to Portland on Saturday determined to lower the color of her Corvallis rival, lxal football rntica who have xeen both teama play this season are of the opin ion that the chances for victory In the romml game are about evenly divided. Thoee who wltneesed the Oreeon-Wash-tnitton content know that Oregon played a high-class (tame, and that nothlna; but the sheer welsM and brute strength of the visitors enabled them to win. The euperb defense of the Oreson eleven and the kicking ability of Clark were factors that enabled Oregon to keep the score down, and It is thought here that these eame elements of strength will success fully defend Oregon's goal line on Sat urday. The opinion is general on tie campus tnat J. can win iuji uj guais mwi the field, and Inasmuch as Captain Moul len le probably the best goal-kicker in the Northwest. It is thought that Oregon will have at least an even break with Captain Wolfe's men in this department. The football squad was put through a light practice thi afternoon, but there will be some scrimmage work tomorrow and again on Wednesday. There will be few. If any. changes in the line-up of the team when It faces O. A. C. Michael, the freshman end, will in all probability be back In the game, although he has a worthy substitute In the person of Dod aon. who distinguished himself last &it urdav. All of the men who played against Washington are In good condition and Trainer Havward expects to have the entire squad In fighting trim on Satur day The team will average about 1.4 pounds a trifle heavier than O. A. C. Seven or eight substitutes will accompany the team, which will go down on Friday. A bur excursion train will leave Eugene Saturday morning, returning after the game, Rractlcaily the entire student body and several hundred townspeople will go down to cheer for the team.

FINE APPLES0N DISPLAY Vanderbilt Exhibition In Fifth-Street Windows of Meier & Frank Store. So manv displays of Oregon-produced apples have been mrde in Portland that comparisons have become tiresome.In fact, the spirit of competition among the producers has reached a stage that if an exhibit attracts any attention from the general public It must meas ure right up to perfection from a hor ticultural view-poir.t. Oscar Vander bilt. of Hood River, yesterday com pleted arranging In the Fifth-street show window of the Meter & Frank Companv, a display of apples grown by himself, and It attracted crowds all day long. The show window exhibit consists of 5 boxes, while on the third floor of the department store are arranged 100 boxes, comprising 13 varieties. In cluded In the unusual exhibit are matchless samples of the Winter Ha nnnas. a part of the same crop of which Mr. Vanderbilt recently shipped to Kins Kdward. Besides the Winter Bananas, the exhibit includes the followinsr va rieties: Salosnes. Wlnesaps. Baldwins, Spltxenbergs, Yellow Newtons. Kllcki tuts. Mammoth Black Twigs, Arkansas Blacks, Stnrks, Oanos, Northern Spies and Delicious. The last named is com paratively a new variety In this state, but Its quality successfully refutes the slightest Intimation that It is a mis nomer. From a selfish financial considera tion. Mr. Vanderbilt explained yester day that th mattet of arranging uch an exhibit does not pay. The expense of bringing such a display to Portland from Hood River more than excels the fancy prices an admirlnir public will ingly pays for-such Incomparable fruit. "The real objec". I have In going to the trouble In making such an exhi bition." said Mr. Vanderbilt. "is to get Oregonians to invest in a box of fruit and send It to Eastern friends as in disputable proof of ' the horticultural possibilities of this state. Furthermore, 1 have always lauded Oregon as an Ideal apple-growing state and I de sired to convince the dubious ones. If them are any. that I knew what I was talking about " The display will be on exhibit for the remainder of the week.

PARIS, Nov. 14. (Special.) Apaches hit on a new methoo of robbing last night. Albert Slrade, a salior who has saved many lives and takes a delight In rescue ing unhappy people who Jump Into the Seine in order to escape from earthly troubles, was walking along the Qual de Javel, when he heard a cry. He turned his gaze in the direction whence the sound came, and saw a man fall from the Mlrabeau bridge Into the river. Immediately the sailor relieved himself of his overcoat. Jacket and vest and Jumped Into the stream. He swam to wards the body and found that it was simply a manikin made of straw. The brave sailor regained the shore disgusted at the Joke that had been played upon htm. He looked for his clothes but found that they had disappeared. The fact is some Apaches knew of the sailor's achievements In Iifesaving and conceived the idea of robbing him. So, while one threw the manikin into the water and ut tered a cry of despair, well knowing that the sailor would- respond to It, the others lay In wait and went off with his clothes. The poor lifesaver not . only lost tola clothes, but tie is minus his watch, purse and medals. WILL LICENSE GAMBLING China Forced to Measure to Raise Infantry Fund 9. PEKIN, Nov. 14. (Special.) The Vice roy of Canton has been ordered by the imperial government Immediately to raise and equip with modern weapons two regi ments of Infantry. His Excellency at first demurred, on the ground that .the provincial exchequer had been absolutely depleted, and that there were no means of raising money for the purpose. Pekln, however, declined to accept this excuse, and the Viceroy and his subordinates have accordingly been compelled to de vise some means of finding the necessary funds. The plan they are reported to have hit upon does not commend Itself to the local community. It has been de cided to legitimatize once more a species of gambling in the open, day, the system known as Pakkopptn being approved of. The best native Journals are opposed to the re-establishment of this pernicious practice, inasmuch as It was decided that such gambling should not be permitted again. It Is feared that this step will be but the prelude to the licensing of other kinds of gambling. WILL BUILD STOCKYARDS Southern Pacific Meets Request ol Salem Shippers. SALEM. Or., Nov. 16.

VICTORY WELL DESERVED Winning Team Shows Better Coach ing and More Practice, but Two Brooklyn Individuals Furnish Best Football - of Day. Hawthorne School won a well-deserved victory from the Brooklyn Grammar School lads yesterday at East Thirteenth and East Davis streets by the close score of S-0. The game was cleanly played throughout, and some clever football shown by the youngsters. .WTllson, at left halfback for the Brooklyn team, fur nished thet best football of the day and was almost a team in himself, both in running with the ball and on the defen sive. Sieberts played a creditable game. The other players on the Brooklyn team were below thexstandard in the Grammar School League, and the team would have undoubtedly been trounced by a big score but for the work of the two players men tioned. Hawthorne had the benefit of coaching PRIZE WINNING BOX OF APPLES AT ALBANY FRUIT FAIR. Northern Spies, Grown by A. J. Wolcott, of Independence. A Dox of Northern Spy apples grown by A. J. Wolcott. of Inde pendence, Or., won the record prise at the recent apple fair at Albany. The apples were packed by H. C. BuMinell. of Junction City. They received the silver cup offered by J. A. Howard, of Albany, for the best commercially packed box at the fair. The box was sold to M. McDonald, president of the Oregon Nursery Coaipany, of Salem, for S10. by Cobb, of the Portland Academy, and displayed a well-trained team with a di versity of plays that fooled their antago nists. Ostrander, Cobb and McKeen put up the best article of football for the winners, although the whole team per formed with credit. The first half was scoreless and about a stand-off between the two teams. The advantage, if any, was with Brooklyn, for they kept the ball in Hawthorne's territory most of the time and at one stage threatened to score. Hawthorne kicked off and the fiYst two plays tried by Brooklyn were short of the -necessary ten yards. On the next play a delayed pass was signaled for and Wrilson got loose around right end for a 40-yard run to Hawthorne's 35-yard line. But for a pretty tackle by Cobb, who was the only man between him and the goal, he would have scored a touchdown, duplicating his feat of last week against Williams ave nue. An onslde kick was pulled off suc cessfully by Brooklyn, advancing the ball to the 25-yard line. On the next play Sieberts took the ball ten yards around left end, and for the only time during the game Brooklyn was in a position to score. The Hawthorne eleven took a brace and piled all three of the next plays in a heap, getting the ball on downs. Phllbln made a good punt, and the ball rolled to the middle of the field. After an exchange of punts, Hawthorne got the ball on downs at Its 40-yard line and immediately tried a forward pass, which was Intercepted by a Brooklyn player. The half ended soon after with the ball in the middle of the field in Hawthorne's possession. Hawthorne scored a touchdown three minutes after the second half wa called by two long runs and a recovered punt. Brooklyn kicked off and little Cobb ran the ball back 20 yards to the 30-yard line. Phllbin punted over Agnew's head and a Hawthorne player fell on the ball on Brooklyn's 40-yard line. On a trick criss cross piay McKeen took the ball around the end to the five-yard line and Ostran der gained two more yards on a buck. Philbin was shoved over on the next play for the only score. Ostrander failed to negotiate the goal. Brooklyn was not able to make much of a showing after this and was on the de fensive most of the time. When it did get the ball it was powerless to gain yardage on straight football, and Haw thorne was on to all Brooklyn's trick plays which had worked such havoc In the first half. The game developed Into a punting match toward the end and end ed with the ball in about the middle of the field. The line-up: Hawthorne (5) Position. Brooklyn (0) Andrews L E """l",! Meyer. T C.

Sieberts Bufus WIFE'S BITTER PORTION Walking Overland to Plead for Hus band's Release. PARIS. Nov. 14. (Special.) A painful story of a starving family's Odyssey comes from Lyons. A man named Pierre Renborg deBerted from an infantry regi ment in garrison at Marseilles in 1SS3. In the following year he married in Belgium, where he had taken refuge, and became the father of three children. " Last month he returned to France by Givet where he informed the special commissary of the station that he wanted to be handed over to the military author ities. On the following day the repentent deserter was arrested at Charlevllle, where his wife and three children had joined him. The wife and children sst off for Paris, but the woman becoming ill, had to return to Belgium without see ing her husband in the Cherche Midi prison. Receiving no help in Belgium because she had become French by her marriage the woman made up her mind to tramp to-Marseilles to beg the Court Marshal to pardon her husband.

MURDERED SEVEN WIVES Berlin Awed by Grewsome Evidence Against Basket-Maker. BERLIN. Nov. 13. (Special.) All Ber lin is talking of a remarkable murder case which is being tried before the court at Rudolphstadt. a berlin suburb, a basket-maker named Koch, being charged with the murder of no fewer than seven wives. On April 15, of the present year, the po lice were Informed that Koch's third wife had disappeared. The man's house was searched, and as a result of the discover ies he confessed that a human foot found in a quarry belonged to his wife and that he had murdered her. He had cut the body up. and, pouring petroleum on the members, set fire to them. Those parts of the body not burnt he buried in the garden and cellar. He placed the foot in his pocket, and threw It Into the quarry on his way to the Apolda. After particulars of this crime were published the police received -information from all sides concerning the disappear ance .of three other women whom Koch is alleged to have murdered and a tele gram from Sonneberg states that he will have to answer to still three more charges of wife murder. STRIKE OUT WORD OBEY French Deputies Believe Time to Re vise Marriage Code. PARIS, Nov. 14. (Special.) Six mem bers of Parliament, all married men by the way, are bringing in a bill to dispense wives from vowing obedience to their husbands. In France before the Registrar, that is to say the Mayor, as well as before the priest In church, a bride promised to hon or and to obey her husband. She does not speak the vow in so many words, but when Bhe says "Yes" she subscribes Im plicitly to paragraph 213 of the Code Na poleon, which the Mayor must have read aloud to the bride and bridegroom before he pronounces them to te married, and which rune: "The husband Is bound to protect his wife, and the wife to obey her husband." ' This is the paragraph which the six married deputies wish to abolish. They have apparently come to the conclusion that the second half of it is a dead letter. As a matter of fact, that is the argu ment put forward also by those who op pose the amendment. It Is a fact recog nized by Frenchmen that their wives obey them only when they choose. Then why alter the law? The French woman makes no fuss, but it is she who dis creetly rules the household. Moreover, when It suits her she claims her hus band's protection. The present wording of the law accord ingly is considered by legislators gener ally and by ex-cabinet ministers, by writ ers and by artists, many of whom have been consulted on the subject, to be quite favorable enough as It Is to women. The first half of the paragraph gives them rights which they can always claim successfully and the second places an ob ligation upon them which they can al ways successfully evade. GRAYSON FLINGS EPIGRAMS Socialist Member of Parliament In dulges In Bellicose Declaration. LONDON. Nov. 14. (Special.) Mr. Grayson, the Socialist member of Parlia ment, made another bellicose speech to a large audience at Bradford last night. He said: "Unemployment Is not the law of God; it is the crime of man. "Passing resolutions on unemployment and giving them to the Prime Minister is like giving strawberries to elephants. "The magistrate, after seeing Christabel Parkhurst tie two Cabinet Ministers into knots, sent her to prison for a long term for demanding what any man with the Intelligence of a hen knew to be just. "I may soon occupy the next cell to her and to the other suffragists, and if so I will elng the 'Songs of Araby.'
