Walter Mack maintains that he'll hang on to Bogart and intimates that if he itoes let blm slip through his fingers there'll be the well-known string at tached, although it Is against the rules rf organised baseball to keep ftsh lines cn ballplayers. That Manager McCredle Is tryinc to rbtain trades for Inflelders Art Bucs jind Roxy Roach, purchased from Louis ville and who refuse to come west, was indicated last night when the big chief expressed chagrin at Oakland's landing Ftnmr Bonne, ex-Seal and St. Louis 7'attonaL McCredle had things fixed whereby he was to trale Bues to Mil waukee for Bohne when iel Howard spilled the beans by grabbing this hard working tnfielder.

Bill Esstek. of the Tigers, will have to tie the can on a ballplayer Thursday to get down within the limit. When ditcher Joe Finneran. who comes from the Tanks, reports at Seattle the club will have 17 pastimers. The dope is that the tosser to go will either be a pitcher or an outfielder.

It was alBo the birthday of ex-President Grant. Chech was 40 years old and Judge McCredie ays that General Grant was 40 years old the day he was born. General Grant was born In ISZi. Figure out how old the Portland magnate Is. It Is learned from Inside sources that the Chicago White Sox. owned and rperated by Charley Comiskey. are dickering for the services of "Babe J'lnelll. former Portland Beaver now with Sacramento. The rapid tire third sicker, who waa with the Sox awhile jaat year, is due for a jump into fast company. He was one of the classiest Inflelders In the coast league last year and la going good this season. Plnelll Is a promising youngster and the sort that should make good in big league company.

Willie and Benny Leonard Will Go Eight Rounds In Newark Arena Tonight. All the followers of the fistic game will have their eyes focused on New ark. N. J., tonight, where Willie Ritchie, former lightweight champion of the world, will prove to himself ana ms hundreds of admirers throughout the length and breadth of the land whether or not he is through as a ring man or really at the height of hia career. when he stacks up against Benny Leon ard, lightweight champion of the world and one of the greatest boxers that ever drew on a padded mitt. Leonard and Ritchie are scheduled to fight eight three-minute rounds to a newspaper decision. According to straight dope from the east they will perform before the largest house, both point of attendance and receipts. that a boxing match in the state of New Jersey ever drew. Indications now are that when these two boxers enter the ring tonight at the Newark Sports mans club a capacity throng will be on hand. A capacity attendance In this arena. which is bigger than the famous Madi son Square Garden arena in New York. totals moce than 11,000 people. The price for seats Is ranging, from $3 to $10 and a crowd of the size that Is ex pected will mean more than 350,000 in the house. The match strongly appeals to the fans of the metropolitan district. It la a far more popular event than the Leonard-Lewis bout last fall, which drew 135,000. e Ritchie has been popular in New York ever since he made bis first appearance there in 1913. His first bout with Leacn Cross was considered the best light weight fight held In New York during the days of the Frawley law. In his last two bouts in New York Ritchie was decisively beaten by Johnny Dundee and Ted Lewis, but be always fights at top speed and has the knack of making his opponent do the same. Ritchie surprised the entire ngni worm when he registered a popular four- round decision over Ionard 1n San Francisco several months ago. He out fought the champion from start to fin ish and may have a much better chance of beating Leonard, than expected. There la always the possibility that Benny may get his punch In, and If he does It will mean stormy weather ahead for Willie. Ritchie will enter the ring at 142 pounds and will depend upon his aggressiveness to carry him through the eight rounds. Portland fans will get in their own little fistic entertainment at the Heillg theater Wednesday night when six all star bouts will make up a card to be staged under the auspices of the Port land boxing commission. Matchmaker George P. Henry has lined up the class iest looking all-around bill presented here In some time, and the fans should see plenty of action for their "scads. ' Weldon "Toughey" Wing, the fastest featherweight that has been developed In rortland for a number of years, will try to put a stop to the winning streak of lanny Frush. the clever English featherweight, who made Joe Gorman look as though he was tied to a post at the last show here. Wing is no slouch himself when It comes to cleverness ana nas s rigni cross that will slow up most anyone if It lands. Frush is a wiiard, without doubt, but there never has been a man yet who could not be beat. Joe Gorman will battle Lee Johnson In the seml-windup of six rounds. Gorman and Johnson are old ring rivals and a great fight is looked for. Johnnv Schauer and Billy Emke, Mike McNulty's two St. Paul battlers, will both display their wares Wednes day night. Schauer is down to clash with Freddie Anderson in the special event, while Emke will meet Billy George. The two other bouts which round out the card are Stanley Willis vs. Freddie Lough and Niel Zimmerman vs. Ted Hoke. Sailor Get Tickets to Show. Tickets were tendered yesterday to more than 250 sailors from the battle ship Oregon to the various motion pic ture and vaudeville shows of Portland by Truxton T. Strain, of the war camp community service. The boys obtained shore leave early in the afternoon and with the aaslstance of his corps of as sistant Mr. Strain managed to see to it that many of the "gobe" were well taken care of during their first day's stay In the city. TRACK MEET FANS SEE ABILITY Sill Last Saturday's Event Multnomah Field Good. at ANOTHER MEET THIS. WEEK University of Oregon Stars Will Compete With Winged M 3Ien In Portland. Despite the unsatisfactory aftermath the fans who witnessed the dual track and field meet between the Multnomah Amateur Athletlo club and Oregon Agri cultural college on Multnomah field Saturday afternoon were treated to one of the best duai affairs that has ever been held In Portlano. The two teams fought from one event to the other for leadership and first ne and then the other forged into the lead as the meet progressed, v Multnomah club lost the meet subject to decision by the rules committee of the American Amateur Athletic Union because of the protest ing of George Philbrook. Before Phil brook's points were discarded the club held first honors, having amassed 70 points to O. A. C.'s 61. The next big meet slated for Portland will be next Satur" - afternoon on Multnomah field with the Multnomah club team meeting that of the Univer sity of Oregon. Coacn Bill Maywara has been whipping his lemon-yellow squad into condition and his men are now ready for any kind of a test. The University of Oregon team did not go like champions In the indoor meet, but Hayward did not have all of his talent entered by far and tnose wno aia com pete had not yet rounded Into the best of condition. It is not likely that there will be a dual meet between any high schools, as In last Saturday's meet, as all of the Interscholastlc path burners will be attending the northwest high school championship meet at Oregon Agricultural college. There is a proba bllitr of there belnz a baseball game staged in conjunction with the U. of O. M. A. A. C. meet between the Winged M nine and the university ball tossers. The great range of athletic ability of Millard Webster, former O. A. C. star. who is now competing for the Multno mah Amateur Athletic club, was dem onstrated in Saturday's meet between Multnomah and tie Aggies. Webster placed first in tho h'gh Jump, tied for second place with Sam Bellah in the pole vault, took second in the broad jump, second in the discus, third in the 00-vard high hurdles and third In the 220-yard low hurdles, giving him a total of 16 points: Elkleman of U. A. C also totaled up 16 markers. A novelty In the way of track meets for the Portland fans will be the open handicap event on Multnomah field on May 17. The meet will be open to all colleges, high schools and clubs in the northwest. The high school athletes will run right along with the collegians but the "big leaguers will be handi capped according to their ability. George A. Anderson has charge of all the handicapping. The officials at Multnomah are planning on putting the meet over in big style and will make preparations to handle a large entry list. e There are a few more track stars at Multnomah club who would be a valu able addition to the club team if they would turn out and get into condition. "Moose" Mulrhead, Johnny Murphy and others are staying out of competition, but may make their appearance on the field before another meet has rolled by. Dick Grant may do some sprinting if the warm weather steadiea down for a stay. Sprinting Is one department in which Multnomah club is lacking. There are three or four men at the club who can turn the 100 and 220 fast enough to give any of the outsiders a run, but up to date they have not ma terialised. see With the Pacific Northwest Athletic association championship slated for Portland in June and the probability of the far western meet being staged in Tacoma, track and field athletes will have opportunity to land laurels worth trying for.

Head of University of Washington Notes Shortage of Men in Faculty Department. SEATTLE. April 27. (Special.) Dr. Henry Suzzallo, president of the Uni versity of Washington, who has just returned from a tour of the east in search of material for the faculty of the university, said today there was nothing to the reports that he had been offered and had accepted the presidency of a California university. During- his trip Dr. Suzzallo visited 15 colleges and Interviewed S7 instruc tors in his quest. At present about 25 more can be used in the university fac ufty department. Dr. Suzzallo said that a shortage of trained men exists throughout the country, and that uni versities may have to enter into com petition with different lines to obtain the men desir&2 and needed. He as cribes the shortage to three causes. First Many university faculty men are still in the service of the govern ment. Second Many technical and scien tific men working alongside of or fot dollar-per-year men have been taken back by them Into their business; and, Third The production of young teachers practically ceased during the war. Dr. Suzzallo says It takes six weeks twice a year to get the necessary men for the university staff. Dr. Suzzallo said that he expected the faculty de partment to be normal for the summer soon At the same time Dr. Suzzallo said that while In Washington, D. C, ar rangements were made with the war department for the training of reserve officers for the coast artillery at the university. This work will be taken up next autumn. From present indications he does not anticipate a greater attendance of stu dents next fall than 75 per cent of the normal, and he does not believe that the university will reach Its normal at tendance until the fall of 1920.

MODERN SPIRITUALISM IS GREAT LAST-DAY DECEPTION, SAYS BIBLE Evangelist Dickson Declares Immortality of the Soul Theory Unscriptural and Says Modernized Sorcery Cannot Consistently Be Barred Out From Church While This Theory Is Taught. That the theory of the spirits of the dead communicating with the livine is pot new, but that it had its origin in the Garden of Eden, and that the ser pent was the first medium, were among the declarations of Evangelist L. K. Dickson, in his lecture on modern spir itualism entitled "From Seance to Sui cide," which was delivered before a large and interested audience last night in Christensen's hall, Eleventh street, between Morrison and Yamhill.

The old traditional ideas and be liefs in demonlsm are intensively re produced in the great civilized nations of modern times.

"These modern manifestations in a public way began or were revived in the Fox family, in Hydesville, near Rochester, N. Y.. in 1848. They began by mysterious raps on bed and wall and panel. Invisible, and accounted for by no known physical law. These rap pings responded to questions by the use of the alphabet, showing intelligence behind the noises. These intelligences claimed to be the disembodied souls of spirits of those who once lived upon the earth. With this small beginning this great belief has grown by leaps and bounds and is now encircling the globe. Scientists of the highest repute, under every test and condition that ex pert scientific knowledge and trained detective ingenuity could devise to eliminate fraud, prevent deception, and shut out the invisible human elemert, have oome to the conclusion that there are Intelligences behind the manifesta tions. These scientists have found fraud, deception and artful trickery, pre-eminently so among professional mediums. Sleight-of-hand men . have duplicated these tricks and excelled them; and so, to some, all these mani festations are fraudulent. "But admitting that the greater part is fraudulent (which ought to indicate its origin), there is still a large part made up of acts and facts and deeds which have convinced many scientific investigators and able men, who, In- clined to scoff, came to believe; for they have experienced many wonders that no trick of legerdemain, nor sleight-of-hand, could account for.

Spiritualism de Ure thaVhly are th "T"8 of df? humans, who have not really died, but have passed on Into another sphere. Scientific investigators do not know their origin. Inasmuch as this belief comes today under the garb of a pro fessedly Christian denomination, it de volves upon tho Christian to investigate the origin of such wonders. What does the Bible say? "To many people the experience of Saul with the witch of Endor proves to them the righteousness of spiritual- istic mediumshiu. but a closer scrutiny orders of spirits are angels and have definite connection with men in the world. Therefore, John admonishes us to 'try the spirits' (1 John 4:1). If men would try these spirits, which come to them, with the word of God they would find that they are not the dead friends or loved ones, for the Scriptures clearly teach that 'the dead know not any thing (Eccl. 9:6; Job 14:20, 21; Psa. 146:4; Eccl. 9:6). Then, when miracles are performed by spirits purporting to be those of our dead friends, we should not attribute any truth to this theory, but rather recognize them as evil spir its which fell from heaven because of rebellion when Satan was cast out. (Itev. 16:14.) "The prophecies of the Bible make clear the fact that one of the character istics of the apostasies of the last days would be this 'giving heed to seducing spirits and doctrines of devilB.' (1 Tim." 4:1.) The immortality of tho soul theory In the minds of the people make them an easy prey to these deceptions of the devil, for once the individual be lieves that the dead have just passed on to a higher sphere the bedrock of spiritualism is established, and to be consistent they must admit its teach ings and believe its doctrine. , "Satan has always manifested the power to transform himself and his emissaries, and will continue to work in this deceptive role until Christ shall put an end to his diabolical career (2 Cor. 11:14, 15; Matt. 24:23, 24). Great wonders will yet be performed, accord- lng to the prophecies, by this wonder- working power (Rev. IS: 13, 14; 2 Thess. 2:9, 10; Rev,12:12), and thus men will be led on in this devilish practice and teaching until their ruin Is perfected. Let us not seek longer the dead for help, but according to our text let us seek unto our God, and, above all, let us cease clinging to a doctrine which is unfounded as far as the Bible is con- cerned. and know that the dead know nothing of this world's activities, for they are asleep (Dan. 12:1), and will remain so until Jesus, the great life- giver, comes and brings them forth in the resurrection morn (Thess. 4:16)."

My kidneys bothered me so often at night and the small of my back hurt me so I couldn't get any sound sleep and when I'd stoop over to pick up anything my back felt live it would break in two. In the mornings when I'd get up I'd almost have to drag myself to work. "What little I ate wouldn't digest right and would bloat me up and make me tight as a drum, and I would be miserable for several hours afterwards. I gradually got worse, fell off thirty nine pounds and got to where I couldn't even do the lightest work, so I had to give up my job I had held for ten years with the Northern Pacific K. R. at Tacoma, Wash. I then bought me a ranch at Albany, Or., thinking the change would help me. I moved out there but I got worse all along. I finally sold the ranch and was going to spend every dollar I had somehow and try to get my health back. I took so many different kinds of medicine, without being helped, to tell the truth, I had but little faith in -any of it, but I had read so many good things about Tanlac that I decided to try it.
