fornia Mare, Wins $2500
Event in 2:083-4.
ADAM G. DIVIDES HONORS
Double-Gaited - Son of McKInney,
With History, "Comes Back."

Derby Winner Runs.
FT JAMES H.- fASSELL.
The Oregon trotting record, which
survived the equine assaults of four
years, was shattered yesterday after
noon on the Country Club track. Ber
nice Ft. the sensational California mare,
negotiating the third and deciding heat
of the 2S00 2:13 trot in 2:08T4, Just a
quarter second faster than the mark of
John Caldwell, established in 190S, In
the greatest trotting race. In the his
tory of the Northwest.
Dividing honors with M. C. Reefer's
midget speeder, the phenomenal work
of Adam G., the 15-year-old double
galted son of McKinney, was probably
even more remarkable than the three
heat conquest by Bernice R. First a
trotter, then a livery-stable servant,
then a pacer with a record of 2:064 on
the Portland track two years ago, the
veteran "came back" as a trottar yes
terday, forcing Bernice R. to break a
record In order to win the final heat of
the Portland classic
Bad Start Made.
The first heat of the race was marred
by a poor start, with The Statesman.
Ben Walker's unruly entry, darting
through the Held at the start, shunting
Dan McKInney and Henry Clayton out
of the running, and finally stopping to
a walk ere the half-mile was reached.
But Bernice R. was away well, soon
took the lead, and won eased up, with
Bon Guy second and Adam G. a close
third.
The second heat was another easy
one for Bernice R with Adam G.. the
granddaddy" of the greatest field ever
to face the starter In a trotting race
in the Northwest, going great guns
after interference, and closing a good
second. He was pocketed at the head
of the stretch In the final heat, after
challenging Bernice R. for half a mile,
but found a groove and slid through,
finishing second in a driving finish.
Canadian Mare Mia.
The 2:12 pace produced a three-heat
winner in Ella Penrose, the clever Can
adian mare owned by J. Carson, of
Winnipeg. She won the first heat af
ter Slrlus Pointer. Roseburg Boy and
King Seal had run themselves into the
around shortly after passing the half
mile post, and had easy going in the
next two heats. She established the
best pacing time of the meeting In
winning the second heat in 2:07.
Captain Apperson. winner of second
money, made a sensational run in the
second heat, negotiating the Aral half
in 1:01 and the quarter in 0:30'4, after
setting away to a mediocre start and
breaking badly early.
Truston King, a 2-year-old stallion
belonging to R. S. Rockwell. of
prague. Wash., was given a clever ride
by Billy Hogoboorn and. in addition, wss
yards the best youngster in the 3-year-old
pace. He" took two straight heals,
with Aeroletta second and The Co-Kd,
a daughter of College Maid, the guide
less pacer, a good third. Co-Ed looked
like a winner in the first heat, but an
automobile frightened her and a bad
break sent ber from first position to
last.
Derby Ulnarr Appear.
Beau Man,, winner or the Spokane
Derhy of two years ago. captured the
three-quarter mile dash in handy fash
ion. Silva wj lucky to win the half
mile run. Just outlasting the fast-stepping
Anna Phaeon in the proverbial
nose finish.
The day was an ideal one for fast
racing and a crowd of J500 turned out
for the Portland day programme. The
' fields were large, the time fast over
the splendid course and the plastering
of a number of fines on careless drivers
soon gave Starter McXair complete
command over the fields.
Walter Edwards, the aviator, gave
the most daring exhibition of the week,
for the first time circling the track
within a. few feet of the rail.

ASTORIA. Or., Aug. 29. (Snecial.)
While the time made by the speed

fast as that developed In yesterday's
. ..nn(, nartlrtlilnrlv thp free-
raica, , " a . v . - - .
for-all race, were fully as interesting.
The weather was perfect, the river was
smooth and clear of drift ar.d not an
accident occurred to mar the day.
The speed Doat "nooaoo was appar-
.i ..bi.i, nxtlnn and with the
oxceplioa of the Potlatch Bug and the
Chenails It navins ennuie iruuuie, iiuuo

soon afterwards.
Swastika Runs Awar.
The Vogler Boy and Chehalis crossed
the line together, with the Swastika
51 4-5 seconds behind. The latter,
however, picked up her handicap and
passed the others before completing
half of the first lap. She had the race
all her own way and finished the fourth
and last lap before the others com
pleted the third. Her time for the 20
miles was 34:10 3-S. The Vogler Boy
was second and the Chahalls II third.
This gives the Swastika the first priae,
with a total of 15 points. The Vogler
Bov wins second prlxe, with seven
points, and the Chehalis wlna third
prise, with four points.
The second race, which was the final
heat for the Paclflo Coast, champion

the leading boats being neck and neck
during the entire 30 miles and finish
ing less than a second apart. The en
tries were the -Oregon Wolf, the Wig
wam II and the Swastika, the latter
getting a slow start.
' Wigwam fkoiri Her Mettle.
The Wolf and the Wigwam made' a
beautiful start, getting away together,
with the Wigwam at the pole. They
spa d up the course at an even rate un
til the first turn, when the Wigwam
drew slightly ahead, but at the next
stake the Wolf took the pole and ran
about 2 feet behind her antagonist
of Eugene, and R. H. Bungay, of Ocean
until about the half of the first lap,
when she made a spurt and drew up
even.
Th two- boats ran exactly even for
the first lap, making it in eight minutes
and 35 l-5 seconds, while the Swastika
made it ore-fifth of a second faster.
The latter held her own until the first
of the third lap. when she dropped out
on account of trouble with her engine.
The other two continued running even,
first one and then the other gaining
a lead of a few feet, until the fourth
quarter of the fourth lap the Wolf
again spurted, drawing ahead by a
couple of boat lengths, and there they
hung during the remaining 11 V miles
of the race.
The Wolf finished first; with the Wig
wam Just two-fifths of a second be
hind. The Wolf's time for the 30
miles was 50:45 4-5, or at the rate of
35.1 miles an hour.

gon Wolf the s first prize and the offi
cial Pacific Coast championship for the
year, with 15 points to her credit. Tin

first prize. The Vamoose and Wigwam
II then settled their tie by dividing the
second and third prises.

HOCiUIAM, Wash.. Aug. 29. (Spe
cial.l Suortsmen of Hoquiam have or
ganized a shooting clutvthe first of the
kind cn Grays Harbor, taken a lease
on a 1000-acre preserve south of the
Harbor and plan to have something out
of the ordinary in the way or snoot
lnar erjunds.
Grays Harbor is one of the best duck
hunting districts in the Jsortnwesi,
vast numbers of ducks of all kinds and
sreese congregating here in the Fall
season. The big tract leased by the
new Hoquiam hunting club has five
large lakes on It and is within a short
distance back from the harbor. At
present these lakes always are well
filled with water fowl, but the club
plans to feed, a new departure for har
bor sportsmen. Members of the club
will be limited in the number of ducks
they will be allowed to kill: As an
other safeguard to prevent any possl
bility of driving the game from the
preserve the days for shooting will be
limltel to not to exceed three m eacn
week. Construction is to start with
in a shott time on a clubhouse.

Execntive Board Gives Petition of
Man Suf-pended but Scant Con
sideration .at Session. .
Amplication by Ben Peterson, a pa
trolman in the police department, for
ay during a recent suspension from
utv on serious charges, met with a
chilly reception at the hands of the
police committee of the Executive
Board yesterday. i ne memoers re
fused to act on it.
John B. Coffey, W. H. Fitsgerald and
Waldemar Seton, the committee mem
bers, were unanimous for forcing the
Civil Service Commission to O. K. the
bill, if it is to be paid, as the commis
sioners ordered Peterson reinstated,
after he had been discharged by the
Executive Board. He was Implicated
In the theft of a revolver in a Chinese
raid, but established his innocence to
the satisfaction ot tne commission.
When the Peterson claim for 366
came ud for consideration Chairman
Coffey asked the members what they
wished to do about it.
It will be a long time before I sign
it," said Mr. Fltsgerald.
"Let the Civil Service Commission
sign it," said Mr. Seton.
"We will taKe no action at an on it,
then," ordered Mr. Coffey.
The committee fixed September 6 at
4 P. M. as the date for hearing the
charges against George H. Bailey, a
deposed police captain.

seems aptly illustrated in the case of
the city- employes Just now. An ordi
nance proposing -to pay them twice a
month, instead of once a month, was
detested in the City council session
Wednesday, and now the calendar
comes in with another big body blow.
The "ghost" should walk at the City
Hall the first of the month, but be
cause of the arrangement of things by

Sunday Is the first of the month and
Monday is a legal holiday. Labor day,
so the employes of the municipal gov
ernment must wait until Tuesday for
"theirs."
Owing to the peculiar situation, nu
merous meetings of city bodies are oc
curring also. The Council met Wednes
day and will meet again today; seven
committees of the Executive Board held
their sessions yesterday; today the
Board will meet at 4 P. M. At 9:30 A.
M. tomorrow the Board, of Health will
meet and at 11 A. M. the Park Board
will have its session.

be expected to develop in the negotia

Coastwise traffic to free passage in
the canal constitutes no actual Dis

Existing law permits no foreign bot
