Both teams played fine professional ball today, Seattle's game being marred only by Peeples' fail ure to get an easy pop-up fly.

Railroad Men Lost to the Commer cial Travelers at Baseball. The grip is mightier than the yellow coupon. This the commercial travelers demonstrated to the satisfaction of the passenger agent's on the Portland Base ball Club's diamond. Twenty-four knights of the grip beat their way home on a slow accommodation train, while only eight passenger agents were given trans portation around the bases. The game was full of humorous Incidents, even if it were not the real thing in baseball. Bats galore wero broken by the vicious swats that the ball was given. Several fly balls were caught. There wero also a few hits and some stolen bases. Occasionally there would be an assist or an error, the latter a remarkable thing in a clean game of this sort, played by the most adept baseball cranks In the town. Mike Roche was the star second baseman of the rail road men. He fielded one ball or two and struck out the rest of the time. Mike is better at telling how the professionals ought to play than in getting in and giv ing an exhibition. Duffy played all over the passenger fleam, left field, shortstop and finally In the box. It is uncertain in the minds of the spectators which position be played best. Gomph caught a good game for the tlcket-shovers. He intro duced a safe method in the game of mak ing at-slsts. He wanted tt throw a runner out at first, and rolled the ball all the way. This was a cinch method of getting a man out, and Gomph was regarded as a great general by the rest of the players. George Wlllett played a good, safe game at third base. Strait was an effective pitcher. The battery work of Catcher Honeyman and Pitcher Thornton,, of the travelers, was the feature of their team's play. Bruce at third "base was the best player in the game. He made some sen sational assists to llrst. Al Smith, iri right field, surprised every one by catching a high fiy at a critical point of the game. The travelers simply waded into the game at the start, and scored eight runs In the second inning. After that the game was theirs. The railroad men did nof seem to play any worse, but it was simply not? their day to shjne. Individually the tally sheet showed: Passenger agents I O. R. Willett. 3b .... 2 2 Traveling men O. R.

Nine Hundred Dollars' Loss Near Sixth and "Washington Streets. , Mrs. Rose Carr Marshall's millinery store, 330 Washington street, was dam aged by fire which broke out at 1:34 o'clock this morning, and the loss is about POO, covered by insurance placed at $1000. The larm was turned in from box No. 135, from the corner of Sixth and Washington streets. Assistant Chief Laudencloss and fhe firemen responded promptly, and found the center of the store near the western wall a mass of flame. Dainty creations In Summer hats and millinery were ablaze, and a large stuffed eagle near the window was badly scorched; but he remained erect amid the general run around him. The flames were extinguished In about Ave minutes' time, but the smoke was dense In adjoining stores for nearly an hour afterward. Mrs. Marshall arrived at the scene In a hack, In response to a telephone message. She said that she had received a stock of new mllllne'ry a day or two ago. The origin of the Are Is" un known.

HAMMER TO WINDWARD CONSTITUTION BEAT COLUMBIA OVER FOUR MINUTES. Cadillac "Won the First of the Series of International Races on Lake Michigan. NEWPORT, R. I., Aug. 10. Boat for boat, the amended Constitution beat the Columbia today by four minutes and nine seconds. It was a hard hammer to wind ward in an 8-knot breeze. The new Herreschoff racer in fine form did won derful work, but the result was not alto gether satisfactory as a test of" relative speed, because 15 minutes after the start the Columbia suffered a mishap which cost her all of five minutes in time, and, in the judgment of most good yachtsmen, the race. Her bowsprit shrouds wer found to be too long. As the wind freshened and she lay at a big angle, the big 'stick which they supported buckled danger ously so that It was necessary to luff her Into the wind and take in the slack. At the same time the steering gear was useless for some minutes when she was jumping on the seas, and she yawed about almost helplessly. Repairs were made with remarkable skill and speed, and she was sent away again, but well astern of her rival, for the Constitution had passed her and taken a commanding position on the weather bow of the unfortunate boat. The Constitution rounded the outer mark two minutes ahead, having gained In elapsed time two minutes and 14 seconds in the 15-mlle beat to windward. On the run In, which was made with spinnakers and balloon jibs, the new boat came In like a racehorse and made a gain of one minute and 55 seconds more. Both boats were handled admirably, and, bar ring the accident to the Columbia, ft was a grand race, at times bordering on the sensational. Both boats carried big club topsails throughout and fortunately without accident to any rigging aloft. CADILLAC WON BY A MILE. First of the International Scries on Lake Michigan. CHICAGO, Aug. 10. The Cadillac, the defender of the Canada's cup, this after noon won the first of the international yacht races, beating the Royal Canadian Yacht Club's challenger, Invader, by eight and one-half minutes. The race was sailed around a triangular course of seven nautical miles to the leg and the first leg was exceedingly close. It had been planned that the third leg should be a beat to windward, but a sudden shifting of the wind soon after the start ing upset the calculations of the com mittee. The first leg, which was a free reach at the start, developed into a port beat to windward, both boats having to make a short tack before turning tho buoy. The second leg was a free run be fore the wind, and the last leg was a fairly close-Jiauled reach. The Cadillac finished fully a mile ahead of the chal lenger. The Cadillac's elapsed time was two hours 46 minutes and 35 seconds. Selection of a. Defender. NEW YORK, Aug. 10. Reports have been received in this city by cable mes sage to the effect that Sir Thomas Lip ton has semiofficial information that the Columbia will defend the America's cup against Shamrock II, and a reporter for the press was informed that although the trial races between the Constitution and Columbia will not be held for three weeks, a majority of the cup committee has agreed that unless alterations now under way make the Constitution a much im proved boat, it would be inadvisable to select her as the cup defender. J. Plerpont Morgan being asked If ho had heard of the cup committee's vlaws saidi "It Is absurd to talk of this before the trial races. I decline to say anything further." Constitution Entered for Races. NEWPORT, R, I., Aug. 10. W. Butler Duncan, Jr., managing owner of the yacht Constitution, being asked if he intended to enter in the race for the cup offered by the Canadian Harbor Yacht Club for a contest between the Constitution, the Columbia and the Independence, said he had heard nothing at the race and there fore was not in a position to speak on the matter. He did say, however, that he has entered in the Seawanhaka Club race be tween the Columbia and Constitution, and that he will have plenty to do with the pending races of the New York Yacht Club, the Seawanhaka Club races, and besides, preparing for the trial races off Newport, August 3L Shamrock Dae at New York. NEW YORK, Aug. lO.-Shamrock II is now hourly expected. She left Gourock on the Clyde July 27, and five days after wards dropped anchor at the Azores af ter a run of 1300 miles. As soon as she reaches port she will be taken to Erie Basin where her racing rig, which has preceded her, will be Installed. Men will be set to work upon it at once, and it will not take long to remove her travel-stained clothes and replace them with the fine raiment in which Sir Thomas Llpton and his advisers hope she will succeed in bear ing away the cup. Races at Cowes. COWES, Aug. 10. In compliance with King Edward's wishes, the race for the King's cup was sailed today. Emperor William's yacht, Meteor, led throughout, the yachts finishing as follows: Meteor! 2:18:35; Britannia, 2:26:20; Leander, 2:51:37. The Leander won on time allow ance. SARATOGA SPECIAL SWEEPSTAKES "Whitney's Goldsmith "Won, Defeating Bine Girl by a Head. SARATOGA, N. Y., Aug. 10. William C. Whitney's 2-year-old colt Goldsmith won the Saratoga special sweepstakes this af ternoon, defeating the champion 2-year-old filly Blue Girl by a short head. The special is a purely sporting sweepstakes, the owners of the eight horses that went to the post subscribing $1000 each, while those who had entered candidates for the race and declined the issue contributed J500 toward the stake. The association added only a J500 sliver cup. The start was an excellent one. Ros9lgnol, with Blue Girl at her saddle girth, made the running down the x back stretch, with Goldsmith third. On the far turn the or der was the same, with Masterman, who was last to leave the post, gradually Im proving his position. The stretch reached, the pace begin to tell on Ro9?Ignol, and both Blue Girl and Goldsmith passed her. A furlong from the wire Blue Girl was a length In front, with Goldsmith closing on her at every stride. At the lower end of the grandstand Goldsmith swerved twice, but Turner quickly straightened him out and he came on again. A close finish xesulted, In which Turner Just squeezed Goldsmith home in front by a scant head, while Masterman was third, six lengths away. The totaNvalue of the stake to Mr. Whitney was $lo,500. For the 110,000 Travers stake, for 3-year-olds, Chuctanunda was favorite, but he was never prominent.

PACIFIC COAST FRUITS. Recent Agricultural Report Treats of This Industry. WASHINGTON, Aug. 5. A recent re port of the Department of Agriculture on truck gardening and the fruitgrowing in dustry touches lightly upon the Pacific Coast region, speaking especially of the fruits of Southern California, although Oregon and Washington come in for a brief mention. The fruit industry of the Pacific Slope, says the report, has within recent years grown to enormous propor tions. This is particularly true of South ern California, which has a climate and soil splendidly adapted to fruit culture. While the fruit Industry In Oregon and Washington at this time does not make much of a showing beside that of Cali fornia, there are indications for a rapid growth in this industry in the future, as well as in Idaho, Colorado and Utah. The transportation of -fruit from the Pa cific Slope and adjacent states amounts to a considerable percentage of the yearly tonnage of the transcontinental railroads. During the heavy movement of decldlous fruits from California, Oregon and Wash ington, which begins early in the Sum mer and lasts until about the middle of October, a special schedule Is put into effect. Fruit from Oregon and Washing ton is handled usually on passenger trains as far east as Green River, Wyo where It is consolidated with the fruit from Cali fornia. Oregon Notes. Cherries are Just coming to market around Enterprise, Wallowa County. There are five Ed Millers In Baker City, and each gets the mall of all the others, so it la said. It is estimated that 1,000,000 pounds of prunes will be dried in the vicinity of Dallas, this Fall. Around Dufur the threshing crews work In eight-hour shifts, eight hours in the forenoon and eight In the afternoon, with five meals a day, and good wages. W. H. Brummond, of Connell, Grant County, recently killed two coyotes with one rifle shot. One of the varmints was standing 10 feet to one side of the one he aimed at. He claims a barbed wire split the ball In Its flight and thus slew them both. Travelers between Vale and Nyssa, In Malheur County, would do well to arm themselves, as, close to the road, In fact, almost In It, is the hole of one of the largest wildcat seen around there for some time. His hide would make an excellent trophy. Great activity Is reported In the Gallce mining district, 25 miles west of Grant's Pass. Quartz mines are working steadily and placers are preparing for the work of next season. More mines and pros pectors are now at work than at any time for 15 years. A big prairie fire raged near Ella, in Morrow County, caused by small boys playing with matches. It burned several sections of bunchgrass, and would prob ably have burned several sections of grain had not men, women and children fought desperately to check It. Ashland's ex-liquor dealers are still non est, probably considering California the better place of residence until the storm blows over. The authorities offered to compromise subsequent violations of the ordinances of the Granite City, but the sum asked was considered entirely too great. J. Parks, postmaster of Buncom, near Jacksonville, while at work In a fleld with his son and V. Hasklns, one day last week, encountered a young deer. Not being armed, they started in pursuit afoot, and succeeded In running It down. Although captured alive, the animal died soon after ward, presumably from overexertion. There Is no apparent scarcity of harvest hands In the Weston neighborhood; neither is there a surplus, and those in search of work are not disappointed. The ruling wages are: Box drivers, $1 75; header driver, $3; loader, $3; hoedowns, $2; sack sewers, $2 25; power driver, $2 50; separator tender, $2 50? taking care of straw, $6; cooking, $2 50. Newton .Livingston, of Middle Fork, Wallowa County, got tho highest price paid for stock cattle during tho present season. For his yearling heifers and steers he received ?20 per head, $35 per head for dry cows, $45 per head for cows with Over-Work Weakens Your Kidneys. Unhealthy Sidneys Make Impure Blood. All the blood in your body passes through your Kidneys once every three minutes. i ne Kianeys are your blood purifiers, they fil ter out the waste or impurities in the blood. If they are sick or out of order, they fail to do their work. Pains, aches and rheu matism come from ex cess of uric acid in the blood, due in nt1rt.d kidney trouble. Kidney trouble causes quick or unsteady heart beats, and makes one feel as though they had heart trouble, because the heart is over-working in pumping thick, kidney poisoned blood through veins and arteries. It used to be considered that only urinary troubles were to be traced to the kidneys, but now modern science proves that nearly all constitutional diseases have their begin ning in kidney trouble. If you are sick you can make no mistake by first doctoring your kidneys. The mild and the extraordinary effect of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, the great kidney remedy is soon realized. It stands the highest for its wonderful cures of the most distressing cases and is sold on its merits by all druggists in fifty cent and one-dollar siz es.

Work Is progressing on the Fish Lake ditch, and eight miles In all have been graded. At Mr. Bradshaw's place a drop of 100 feet will be made, at which point it Is proposed to establish a power-house. With the amount of water which the ditch" will carry 2000-horse power can be devel oped. On July 30 measurements were taken of the water running in Little Butte Creek, and there were found to bo 7200 inches. About 2000 Inches of this amount is being used by parties in and around Eagle Point, leaving more water than will be needed by the ditch com pany for several years. When this sup ply Is backed by a large reservoir at Fish Lake there will bo little danger of the ditch running dry. c - ill AT THE HOTELS. "Jj. 1 ' THE PORTLAND. A G Hyde.

Rector, an old and respected citizen of this- place, was found dead In his bed this morning, As his drug .store was still closed at 10 o'clock, City Marshal Shields went to the house and broke In the front door. Rector was found lying dead upon two mattresses. He had probably been dead 10 hours or more. An empty chloro form bottle was found near him, and he held In his hands a towel which had been saturated with chloroform. His face was badly discolored. Many believe that the deed was premed itated, and brought on by domestic or business cares. He is a member of the I. O. O. F. In good standing. Those well acquainted with Rector say that he had been subject to severe headaches for some time, and was in the habit of taking chloroform to relieve the pain, and they thlnk that by accident he Inhaled too much of the drug.

DISEASE OF HEAD AND STOMACH. NOW SHE IS CURED Mrs. Z. M. KnipUt, St. Johns, Port land: "I have been under treatment a few months with Drs. Copeland & Montgomery for a severe catarrhal trou ble, which was aggravated by an at tack of pneumonia last year, tho princi pal trouble being with my head and stomach. "My nose was stopped up so that I could hardly breathe through It, and at the same time there was a Discharge and Dropping; In the throat. My throat was dry and voice husky. "The stomach seemed to have lost all power to digest food properly. Every thing I ate seemed to turn to gas, caus ing Bloating, Heart Palpitation and Smothering spells. These attacks usually did not come on for some hours after eating, nd became so bad that I never could be left alone for any length of time, for they would prostrate me completely, and often I thought that I would certainly die be fore I got relief. There was always a sense of fullness and oppression and dis tress In the stomach. "I had no appetite or desire for food. I fell away until I was little moro than a skeleton, and was so "Wenlc and Jfervous that I could hardly look after my family. I had not color or life, and was so mis erable that life had lost all charm for me. "It was in this condition that I was per suaded by friends to place myself under treatment with Drs. Copeland and Mont gomery, and at first It seemed that I was to be disappointed, for I was under treatment nearly two months before I could see any Improvement. I knew, however, that my condition was a very serious one and was willing to persevere In the treatment, and was well rewarded, for It brought me a Cure at Last. I am having better health now than in many years, and give the credit of It to Drs. Copeland and Montgomery. lln. Z. M. KnlKht, St. Johns, Port land.

Old pioneers and settlers ecout at the Idea that the finding of the skeleton near South Seattle a few days ago Is evidence that some terrible crime has been com mitted. One who saw the remains says the color of the hair was coal-black, and that the blankets were of a coarse red and white, such as are used by the In dians, and that the spot where It was found Is an Ideal place for an Indian burial. James Sharp, of Georgetown, says it is nothing but an Indian skele ton, and that the same sensational stories were written about the skeleton which was dug up near the site of the old race track house at Georgetown. Mr. Sharp also states that at the time that the valley road was graded from Georgetown to "Van Asselt there were over 20 Indian skeletons discovered along the route.
