THE SUNDAY OREGONIAN, PORTLAND, JUNE. 2, 1901.
S
MADE IT THREE STRAIGHT
PORTLAND SHUT OUT SEATTLE IN
A SNAPPY GAME.
Locals Scored Their Rubs In One
Inning?, When Visitors Went to
Pieces Brown's Circus Catches.
Portland took her third straight same
from Seattle before a. crowd of 1500 peo
ple yesterday afternoon. To add to the
agony the team from the Queen City
was shut out, and at the close of the
game had nine goose-eggs to her credit.
Portland crossed the home plate three
times, all In the last Inning. For eight
Innings neither side scored, and excite
ment was at a high pitch among the
spectators.
Brown, Portland's center flelder, fur
nished the fireworks. He made two sen
sational one-hand catches, and was the
Idol of the bleachers. Jn the sixth inning
Bodle was up first for Seattle, and was
hit by the ball. Harmon was next to
the bat, and knocked what seemed to be
a perfectly sife hit between right and
center field. Brown went after It, and
almost paralyzed the spectators by reach
ing up and catching It with his left
hand. Bodle was so sure of the hit being
safe that he was past second when the
ball was caught. He was thrown out,
and the double play stirred up enthus
iasm to Its wildest pitch. In the next
lnnmg Brown duplicated the feat by
catching one with his right hand while
running at a terrific pace.
In-Ub'e ninth Seattle still failed to score.
Vigrieaux was first to the bat for Port
land, and was given his base on balls.
He -stole second, and Anderson, who fol
lowed him, made a base hit, and likewise
stole second. Brown followed with an
other hit, and "Vigneaux scored. Tinker
go first on an error of First Baseman
Hurley, which also allowed Anderson to
score. Hurley made a bad matter worse
by. a -wild throw to third, upon which
Brown scored. This completed Portland's
three runs, and the game was quickly
ended. Following Is the score:

CANADIAN CUP CHALLENGER.
Description of the Invader, Launched
Near Toronto.
TORONTO, .Ont., June 1. The follow
ing particulars of the Canada's cup chal
lenger have been received from the
owner. The Invader, which was launch
ed last Monday at Oakvllle, near Toronto,
has an over-all length of 49 feet and 6
Inches, with a water line of 2S feet, a
beam of 9 feet and 4 inches and a
draught of 6 feet 6 Inches. Her displace
ment Is 6100 pounds, and her sail area
14S0 feet. The mast Is 42 feet long, the
main boom 38 feet, gaff 26 feet, hoist 31
feet, horn 6 feet 6 Inches, base of for
ward triangle, 20 feet, and hoist of jib,
28 feet.
On deck there is no rail except a nar
row strip on each side of the cockpit and
steering well. There are here narrow
combings, but beyond this the deck Is
clean swept, and there will be no re
sistance to wind. The deck fittings are
of mahogany, and she carries a rudder
that is not hung up on the fin, but Is
of the kind called the balance rudder,
which is now being used in the Boston
defender Independence. The blade is nar
row and deep.
The canvas, prepared at the lofts of
John Leckle, of Toronto, Is now ready,
and the hollow spars, which were made
at Montreal, are expected soon. The In
vader now floats well above her cal
culated water lines, and unless she over
stands the racing length of 35 feet In the
measurement, will carry 150 square feet
more than the Beaver, the Payne de
sign. American Yacht Launched.
MILWAUKEE, June L The yacht
Orion, built for the purpose of defending
the Canadian cup, was successfully
launched today In the presence of 500
yachting enthusiasts.
Watson Worried by Criticisms.
NEW YORK, June 1. A dispatch to
the World from Glasgow says:
Designer Watson is greatly worried by
criticisms passed on his workmanship on
the Challenger. He told Sir Thomas Lip
ton he did not place any value on the re
sult of the trial races on the European
side. He built the yacht with an eye to
American sailing conditions, and nothing
has happened to alter his judgment that
she will prove the fastest challenger he
ever sent across.
Captain Sycamore expressed entire
agreement with this view. He says If
he and Watson had had their way the
Challenger would have been taken across
the Atlantic when she was launched to
be tuned up there, but Lipton did not
want this, as h!s only chance of getting
the King as his guest was to have the
Solent trials. They were accordingly
arranged. Watson disapproved of them
from the first. He blames the hurry
with which the boat was fitted In order
to bring them off. The accident and In
different performances will cost Lipton
another $35,000 to send Shamrock II to
Sandy Hook, but expense never deterred
him doing anything to assist In enabling
him to lift the cup.
"Will Not Defend nig Title.
LONDON, June 1. Harry Vardon, the
golf player, said today that he would not
defend the title of champion of America
at the forthcoming meeting at Boston.
What Happened to Morgan.
Richmond Dispatch.
The worst thing that happened to Mor
gan In the Wall-street scrimmage was
the discovery of the fact that he Is not
all-powerful and that his "interests" can
be bulled, beared and squeezed like those
of much humbler promoters.

IN THE PARIS LIBRARIES.
An American Student on Conditions
There.
"I have read In the meager dispatches to
Le Temps and Le Figaro of Mr. Carne
gie's gift to New York," writes an Amer
ican student In Paris to the New York
Commercial Advertiser, "and have also
heard something of the plans for the final
consolidation of the dozen circulating
libraries of the city into one magnificent
Institution with a central home In Bryant
Park. Perhaps it would be Interesting to
hear of how we American students obtain
reading matter from the libraries of Paris,
and something about the institutions
themselves. Manhattan Offers more books
gratuitously to her people than Paris.
"Here popular libraries do not seem to
be so numerous. Whether they possess
an equal -potentiality for good I cannot
decide. They may be found in every ar
rondissement, or ward, except In the first.
They are open from 7 until 10 o'clock on
Sunday morning, and for 15 hours dur
the week days. You must pay by the
month for the use of books, according to
the library you wish to use; 50 centimes
(10 cents) for men, and 25 centimes for
women. They evidently think women are
less impulsive page-turners. If you wish
to use all the popular libraries In one
month the charge is 20 and 10 cents. " I
suppose these exasperating charges are to
pay for the living of the lean bibllothe
calres. The poor things get only about
$150 a year. The city subsidizes each
library of this kind to the munificent ex
tent of $1 17 a day.
"The Bibllotheque Nationale, on the Rue
Richelieu, Is the most interesting library
I have seen In Europe. It impresses by
its 'loneliness quite as much as by Its
antiquity. Few students visit it, though
it is the largest In the world. Now and
then a stray blackboard with historical
propensities, or bosom cronies, amateurs,
glide In to post themselves on the value
of some wormy tome. Strangely enough
I associate the library with the catacombs
of Denfert-Rochereau; the 3,000,000 books
seem to reek with history and forgot
ten strains of mortality. Charles V. be
gan the collection, and kindly-faced M.
Dellsle guards today the treasures of the
old Hotel Mazarln. The revolution sacked
the convents of their printed learning to
the profit of the collection, and the league
long rows of volumes have lengthened
with the years. It is interesting to know
that French students study ardently to
become custodians of -historic books. Even
after their courses at the Ecole des
Charles, where theypass a technical ex
amination, they must wait nine years be
fore they can be nominated as blbliothe
qalres. To be a corfservateur they must
wait for another 12;-years. But no one
minds waiting In France. Why should
one if he has no taste for the half-lights
of the cabarets; if he has yards of rare
Aides, Estienes and Elzevirs to finger;
is there are musty vignette charters
and diplomas. Bedouin manuscripts, Greek
and Roman medallohs and priceless auto
graphs of old conquerors with which to
commune.
"If I wish to stuy there amidst these
half-hundred kilometers of wisdom I
must first write for a card from the ad-'
mlnstratlon, giving my address, the na
ture of my work and my capacity as a
student. Sometimes I wonder they don't
ask me for the number of times I've
crossed Brooklyn Bridge or if my mother's
canary has a clean bill of health. I won
der, too, if when Hennln de Luynes
and de Janze poured their wealth Into
these shelves they planned that I should
pay In the little cloistered restaurant one
cent for a serviette, two for bread, 10
for my rotl and 16 for my white wine. I
often question why my appetite can be
so knife-edged where the vibrations of
history ring down the aisles and the
thrill of France la grande rushes through
my bones.
"The Salnte Genevieve Library is much
nearer us, in our Quartler Latin. When
the sun is low in the south It throws the
shadow of the tall Pantheon on the very
, sills of Genevieve. What American does
not love her more than the sainted Jean?
The law school, where we fellows belong,
is so close to this library that we often
go there to escape the childishness of the
first-year men. M. Ruelle, the librarian,
likes us, too, because we let him talk in
English. Students of law, medicine, math
ematics and philosophy go there because
the library "keeps up" on the new works
on their subjects. Then there are fewer
rules at St. Genevieve. You must only
put your umbrellas In the right place,
chain your bicycle In the vestibule and
"defenser" to write In your book with a
pencil (pens not forbidden). Sometimes
we book lovers go over to the City of
Paris Library to read Voltaire's letters, or
to pore over the proces verbaux of the
Commune. Then, too, there are 50,000 vol
umes of the French Revolution to Interest
on If he were Immortal and the weather
constantly bad.

A Southern Oregon Mystery.
About four miles below Ruch, on the
Applegate, and 12 miles from Jackson
ville, some 36 years ago lived a widow
named Long, who was reputed quite
wealthy, and her mysterious murder was
the sensation for many weeks in South
ern Oregon, says the Medford Enquirer.
At the time of the tragedy the widow
was engaged to be married to a young
man working on the place, and the time
set for the wedding only a few days off.
She also had at the time of her murder
employed upon the place a Chinaman,
who helped with the housework when not
otherwise occupied.
As the story goes, on the evening of the
day the murder was discovered, the widow
and her betrothed the hired man were
to attend a party In th neighborhood to
which they had been invited.
When supper time camp the hired man
came in from the field, and was- surprised
to find no signs of life about the house,
no fire In the cookstove, and no supper.
As the house had been left open, he saw
that something was wrong, and com
menced a search of the rooms. Upon en
tering his bedroom, he saw where some
one had wiped their bloody hands upon a
white shirt which had been laid out for
him to wear. Now thoroughly alarmed,
he continued his search, and behind one
of the tables In the storeroom found the
mutilated body of his fiance cold in
death, guarded by her faithful dog. In
dications showed that a terrible struggle
had taken place, the room being covered
with blood, and in the struggle the flesh
had been cut almost entirely from the
hand with which she had grabbed the
knife that gave her the death wound.
From indications, the crime was 'Com
mitted just after dinner. Both the hired
man and the Chinaman were arrested and
tried for murder, but were discharged, as
there was no evidence upon which to con-

Mrs. Long It was known had a son, who
at the time of the murder was supposed
to be living In the East, but he never
could be located, and In course of time
the place fell to the grandmother of
George E. Neuber, of Jacksonville, who
was a distant relative of Mrs. Long.
After his grandmother's death the place
became the property of Mr. N.euber, who
sold It to Thomas Kinney, and who two
years ago Bold it to the Offenbacher
brothers, the present owners.
Now comes the strange story which re
calls the tragedy of many years ago.
One evening some two weeks ago, three
men In a covered hack drove up to the
residence of James O'Brien, whose place
adjoins the "Long place." and whose
house Is about a quarter of a mile from

CAUSES GENERAL REGRET.
Postponement of the Meeting of Ir
rigation Congress.
WASHINGTON, May 28. There is gen
eral regret throughout the country that
the Irrigation congress, which was to
have held a session at Colorado Springs
In. .July, has been postponed for a year
because manSr persons who ehould at
tend would not be able to do so, owing
to other; meetings about the same time.
The greatest reason for regret Is that
these men, so profoundly Interested In
the subject of Irrigation, will now have
no opportunity of uniting upon some pol
icy to be- laid before Congress at Its next
session. In the Irrigation congress, as In
the National Congress, there Is undoubt
edly a diversity o opinion, some believ
ing that Congress should be called upon
to assist In this project, while others be
lieve it Is a state function.
It Is recognized that a matter of such
great Importance could not be settled by
a meeting of but a few representative
men. It would be unjust to outline a
policy under such circumstances, and,
moreover, the results arrived at in that
way would have little or no Influence be
fore Congress. It should be understood,
however, that the irrigation congress is
not abandoned, but merely postponed.
The Buffalo Exposition, where lrrlgatlon
Ists are considerably Interested, has
served in a great measure to Interfere
this season.
Evidence of this regret Is plain In Wash
ington among the Government officials
who are directly interested In the ad
vancement of the irrigation movement.
Both in the Geological Survey and In the
Department of Agriculture, considerable
disappointment Is expressed, but at the
same time these officials suggest that, In
asmuch as the question of making appro
priations for storage reservoirs will come
up next Winter in Congress, the people
Interested should keep the matter con
stantly before their Senators and Repre
sentatives end impress upon them the
need of Congressional assistance, or at
least sanction, In this great work of de
velopment. These officials also express
the hope that the committees which are
called upon o consider irrigation bills
will take more speedy and hearty action
In the next Congress than characterized
their work In the last. Even if no final
legislation is agreed upon, it Is believed
the subject can be more comprehensively
and more Intelligently studied than it
was during the latter part of the last Con
gress, when personalities and minor dif
ferences absorbed most of the time, and
no honest work or consideration' was al
lowed. Folklore In the South.

The Skin
Millions oflittle glands or tubes connect the blood with the skin, and through,
the$c small drain pipes perspiration passes out, carrying with it the impurities that
are thrown off by the blood. Should the pores of the skin be entirety- closed for
even a brief space of time, and the poisonous matter forced back into the circula
tion instant death would result. In addition to the sweat glands, the skin is.
provided with certain others which pour out upon it an oily substance, keeping
the skin pliable and soft and protecting it from heat and cold. The blood and sknx
are so closely related that whatever affects one seriously interferes with the func
tions of the other. Not only health, but life itself, depends upon perfect harmony
between the blood and skin. When, therefore, the
blood becomes poisoned from any cause, it quickly iff 3J7ft SMlS
manifests itself upon the skin in the form
of sores and ulcers, pimples and various ExtCittMi PQi94BI39
eruptive diseases. By the character of the
sore we are enabled to determine the nature of the poison or humor m the blood,
as every disease originating in the blood has its own peculiar sore or pimple. The
skin is not only affected by the poisons generated in the system, but poisons from
without enter through the open glands or pores and quickly infect the blood.
Mercury rubbed upon the skin will produce Rheumatism, and Poison Oak and Ivy
and other wild plants gain easy access to the blood through the skin. As so-called
