was not all the" ready money, delivered
and signed negotiable, In yesterday's
game against that bunch of tap-notchers
from Los Angeles, Just read the score
by Innings. And, ha was twirling: against
Newton, the ex-big leaguer, whose sal
ary is equal to that of a boodle. Alder
man. Yet the little chap, good natured
and as happy as a meadow lark In Spring,
pitched monsoons, typhoons and tor
nadoes in comparison with the benders
that his opponent served to the Browns.
Like Shields, Joe Kostal should have
won his game, so there is no use of
speculating on the "Ifis and buts and the
might-have-beens."
Kostai's exceedingly clever work in the
box against Morley's swatsmen gave him
a warm place in the hearts of the local
ians. And what puzzling' speed and teas
ing slow ones he did serve over the
plate! Joe ozoned two "of the chief tlm
bermen from Los Angeles, but this was
Just to show the visitors that he could
uncork the ozone bottle if he so chose.
Kostal, however, was satisfied to serve
the kind that could be clouted, but so
ineffectively that the funeral possession
was the feature of the game.
Anderson's Fine WorJc.
The plucky Brown pitcher let the visi
tors down . with three measly hits and
they were confined to the second and
third innings. After that, of the 20 men
that faced him 12 of them went out in
one, two, three order. In order to pull
off this pretty piece of work Kostal had
the gilt-edge support of Andy Ander
son. That little second baseman never
in his previous career put up better ball.
He has been off color lately, but In yes
terday's game was all and more than
could be asked for. Twelve bounders
traveling with the speed of a fast ex
press came into his territory. Ten of
them he, with tho grace and precision
of a well-regulated piece of machinery,
gathered in and relayed them to the
waiting Shaffer. Think of it! Ten of
tho Loo Loos went to the morgue via
the Andersen-Shaffer route, and yet all
of the story is not told. The game was
hardly three minutes old when he made
a beautiful one-hand catch of "Wheeler's
line drive and without stopping to tako
aim ho tossed the ball to Shaffer,
doubling "Dummy" Hoy, who had walked
to first. This was the beginning of his
excellent work. The ten assists came one
and two each inning right from the be
ginning. Fans who saw his work were
Jubilant and declared to a man that
he had at last rounded Into the old
Andy of a year ago.
Los Angeles Scores In Second.
Los Angeles scored their firet run In
the second inning. Smith's failure to get
under Dillon's difficult fly in right field
"was the cause. Cravath sacrificed him
to second and Boss flew out to ZInssar.
Two men were out, but singles by To
man and Spies brought in the ' run.
Hurlburt, who was lent to the Browns
by Los Angeles, caught tho tricky little
Loo Loos' shortstop off third and threw
him out to Jay Andrews. This was the
first game that Hurlburt has caught since
his arrival in the West. He was a bit
clow and perhaps had a natural an
tipathy about beating his teammates.
"When Dillon scored on Zinssar's long
throw of Ross out the crowd hissed.
This was unfair, for the. throw was wide.
He should have caught" a pop-up fly a
little later. His failure to do this and
his allowing Toman to steal second again
displeased tho fans. When he caught
him off the switch at third by a pretty
and very fast throw the crowd forgave
him, and when he smashed one of Dr.
Newton's floaters for a single the for
giveness was complete.
In tho third inning Dr. Newton hit to
Jay Andrews, and the third baseman al
lowed it to gallop between his feet unmo
lested. Ho stole second, and Dummy Hoy
beat out a bunt. J. Smith soaked a hot
one that plunked straight Into Nadeau's
waiting glove. The outfielder playing at
Bhort spoiled the play by throwing the
ball feet over Shaffer' head In an effort
to double out Hoy. Newton stolo third,
and ho and Hoy scored on the error.
After the third inning:.. Los Angeles got
only ono man as far as second, and ho
was out before ho touched the cushion.
Browns Score Twice in Seventh.
The Browns scored twice in the lucky
Seventh. In tho second, third -and fifth
chapters safe hits were batted out of
Newton, but they yielded no runs. In the
sixth canto Nadeau. Andrews and Shaffer
each sent the sphere into bingleland.
Nadeau missed a chance to bring" in a
score by not running after he reached
third. Ho died on the cushion, because
neither Hurlbert nor Kostal could plant
the ball into safe territory. Toman fell
Into the sinful column by fumbling Zins
sar's drive in the "seventh Inning. Van
Burcn made a .clover sacrifice, and Zlns
ear got to second. Nadeau again rapped
out a single, and. of course, Zlnssar
8 pored. Nadeau stole second, and was
"within striking distance when J. Smith
made his failure to check Andrews' clout.
The Andrews-Shaffer Incident brought out
a mass meeting, with Umpire O'Connell
es the central figure. Two men were out
and two on bases, but tho greedy Dillon
signaled Newton to walk Andv Anderson.
This action on the part of Dillon is sim
ply in keeping with those of his master,
Morley. It is also one of the many things
which made Dillon unpopular in the Na
tional League, Whalen. in fielding Shaf
fer's hit, attempted to touch Jay Andrews
as he was racing for second. Whalen
missed Andrews, then throw to Dillon,
but Shaffer was safe. Morley's crew,
headed by Captain Dillon, made a mad
dash Tor O'Connell. Just what compll
xnents were exchanged could not be
heard, but five Los Angeles players paid
55 each for their gabfest. They were Dil
lon. Toman, "Wheeler, Spier and Smith.
Dillon got real chesty, and O'Connell
pulled his watch on him. Talk about
chickens scattering when it rains, tho Loo
Loos, when they caught a glimpse of the
timepiece, took their positions in a hurry.
Dillon, whose home habit is still strong
with him, tried to -bluff his way out of
the mess. When io rir.ini v
lhink jthaWoeKostal
there with the goods, he had about' 40 sec-
enos eimer to piay Dau or forfeit the
game. It was as funny as a circus to see
that mob get to .playing 'ball again. The

TROPHY CONTEST.
P. B. Gilford Is Rnnner-Up With SO
Mrs. L. A. Lewis Wins "Wo- .
men's Handicap.
R. L. Macleay won the Blythe medal
on the Waverly golf links with a score of
SS. P. B. Gtfford was second with 9.
The sub shone bright at Waverfy golf
links yesterday afternoon. Too bright. In
fact, for 'those who participated in the
annual Spring- competition for the Blythe
medal, the most-prized reward which can
come to local followers of the game. The
green also was not conducive to good
golf, the grass having been'lnfllffereritly
trimmed, leaving it very long in spots
where it could do the most harm.
Ttierc were'25 entries for the medal and
in spite of unfavorable conditions some
creditable scores were made. The finish
between -R. L" Macleay and P. B. Glfford
was close and almost thrilling, if the
weather had been right for thrills. Mr.
Macleay won with. SS, while Mr. Glfford
crowded close to hie heels In 9: Others
who made good scores, were: C. S.
Walker. ?2, and J. E. Young. 95.
The handsome gold medal, therefore,
goes to Mr. Macleay until the Autumn
competition, when It will be again con
tested for. Since the Spring of 1S97 when
the medal was first ottered it has been
successively -won by; R. B. Miller, Spring
of-1 1897, score 103; Lieutenant H. P. Mc
Cain. Autumn 1SS7, ecore 9S; P. H. Blythe,

Had tho couroe been good yesterday Mr.
Macleay's score would huve undoubtedly
been much lower ns both he and Mr.
Glfford played in excellent form.
Mrs. Kohlcr and Mrs. L. A. Lewis., who

The Waverly Club Is considering the
advisability of going into the ahoep busi

than depending on mowers.

Men "Who Affect Careless Dress.
Success. "
Many wealthy men affect carelessness
in dress, and it may truly be said that
they can afford to do anything, but they
are the very men who require that their
employes shall dress so well that tho pub
lic will imagine they are well paid. The
first impression made by a man in busi
ness life is the most important. When he
enters tho presence of another man, he
studies him no less than he is being stu
died in turn. Each unconsciously takes
tho measure of the other, and each quick
ly forms an opinion. The importance of
making that first Impression a favorable
ono cannot be overestimated. It helps
toward tha object to be gained. The nice
ly "groomed,-" clean-cut man, dressed in
good taste, and carrying himself with
that confident air of gentility which is
inseparable from good attire, feels sure of
his ground, and can talk with the man
who' Is his superior in a business sense
without displaying those many littlo evi
dences of uncouthness which creep out In
one's dress, speech and manner. If you
have an Important part to play in your
business life, remember that you must
dress np to IL The shabby and the shift

men who fill the "want" columns of news-
paperaand -who- ply those callings where
no "previous experience Is required," and
where applicants are informed that $100 a

Navy Making Tests of Wireless Sys

JOE KOSTAL,. WHO TWIRLED FOR THE BROWNS
YESTERDAY.
HE IS ABOUT TO DELIVER THE BALL "FROM HIS MISSING PITCH
ING ABM.
This Is a picture of Joe Kostal. the sturdy little twlrler, who was a.
nightmare to Los Angeles yesterday. His right arm does not show be
cause the camera man was too quick on the trigger. The invisible arm
was the one that pulled him out of many tight holes during the game.
The picture is printed by specia I -request from Joe., who declares it to be
the best he ever had taken. Sometimes Joe- is known as Joo a de Kos
and sometimes as the Kake.
learn something definite as to the amount
of dependence that may. bo placed on the
new Invention. There Is a great feax'that
the utility of wireless telegraphy for. of
ficial, purposes, especially In time of war,
may be undermined by the ability of out--slde
parties to learn the. purport of Gov
ernment messages. Admiral Bradford,
chief of the Bureau of Equipment of the
Navy, who has charge of this branch of
the work, has planned a system of exten
sive experiments to tako place off the
eastern extremity of Long Island, by
which he hopes to ascertain whether or
not messages can be successfully inter
cepted. Already a pole has been erected at the
end of Long Island, at Montauk Point,
and as soon as the Spring maneuvers at
Hampton Roads are over the Prairie and
Topeka will go north to participate In the
experiments. Messages will be exchanged
between the land station and one of the
vessels. The- other will cruise about be
tween the two objective points, with Its
own receiving pole In the air, in an effort
to catch the messages. Experiments will
also be mado to determine whether mes
sages eent from ono vessel to another
while at sea can be received with distinct
ness by a station on land. There is as yet
very little reliable Information on this
subject, which is of great importance to
the Navy. Messages are now successfully
sent over naval wlreleso systems as far
as 0 miles, and gradual extensions are
being made. '
The adoption of the wireless telegraph
systems for transmission of messages ap
parently sounds the doom of the carrier
pigeons in the Army and Navy services
bo.th of this country and of Europe. Jn
Europe war pigeons have been used on a
much greater scale than in the United
States. The German army has especially
employed these winged carriers for the
transmission of military and naval mes
sages between land stations, as well as
from land stations to war vessels at sea.
In the British navy great use has been
made of them along similar lines, but par
ticularly in sending messages from ship
board to the land. So carefully has the
system been developed that it trould be
difficult to cut off communication between
warships and tho mainland or between
two armies in the field.
Carrier plgeonB were not employed by
tho American Army in Cuba, but in the
Philippines this means of transmission of
messages has been tried with success and
Is being gradually extended oyer the archi
pelago. The British successfully employed
tho system In South Africa, It is said
that tha pigeon system has become so
efficient in Europe that the German and
French armies are now turning their at
tention to training falcons and hawks to
catch the liberated pigeons of the enemy.
BUt tho introduction and general adop
tion of wireless telegraphy will change
all this and the pigeon will again become
solely a pet bird.
How to Stop Lynching-.
Chicago Conservator.
In the State of Ohio, at least,, the. lynch
ing Industry will henceforth find a strong
checkmate,, lf npt preventive, judging
from the recent success of the antl-lynch-ing
statute passed by the Legislature,
through tho Hon. Harry C. Smith, its
Afro-American member. The bill holds
tho cpunty in which the lynching occurs
responsible for a fine of $5000. The heirs
of "Click" Mitchell, lynched. In Urbana,
in 1E97, brought suit for the damage, and
the finding of the lower court has Just
been confirmed, by the Supreme Court,
which ordered that 51500 additional be. paid
the relatives of the murdered man. And

by tho odds-on-favorite, but by a much
despised outsider. The victory was a
surprise to even Owner Ellison, for he
I had not thought the colt good enough to
win.
It was an exciting finish. Early, with a
length and a.half to the good, was ridden
down the. stretch as though he had al
ready 'won. : Within the last sixteenth
Brooker brought up Judge Himes and in

SURVEYS IN ALASKA.
Sevrard Pealnsala and Other Sec
tions to Be Examined.
OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU. Wash
ington, April 29. The operations of the
United States Geological Survey" in Alaska
during the coming field season will be
along: the same general lines that have,
been followed during the last- few years,
except that the work contemplated In
volves rather more detailed mapping and
investigation. The general policy of de
voting special attention to regions of
greatest activity in mining affairs will be
continued.
It Is planned to" complete the surveys
of the Seward Peninsula, which has been
under Investigation for several years.
This peninsula embraces what are up to
the present time the most Important gold
placers of the entire territory. Arthur J.
Collier, with an assistant, will make a
special study of the geology and mineral
resources of the southern and northwest
ern part of the peninsula. It is Intended
that his Work should supplement that of
previous years, and that he should pay
speclal attention to the developments that
hive been made during the last season.
It Is hoped that by this means further
light will be thrown on the occurrence of
placer gold In the various forms of de
posits in which it is found. To. D, C.
WItherspoon will be intrusted the topo
graphic survey of the northe'astem part of
the peninsula, including the gold fields ad
jacent to Deering. The geologic work of
this area will be duly arranged for.
Two parties will be organized for sur
veys in the Yukon district. One party,
led by T. G. Gerdlne. will make a topo
graphical survey extending from the For
tymlle region westward to the Tanana
River, and embracing as wide a belt as
length of season and climatic conditions
will permit, a special effort being made
to reach and map the lower Tenana gold
fields. The second party will be In Im
mediate charge of L. M. Prlndle and will
have for its field of operations the Forty
mile and Birch Creek regions and the
newly discovered gold fields near the Low
er Tanana. This party will make a geo
logical investigation, and an examination
of the mineral resources of the region.
These two parties, It Is expected, will ob
tain much information in regard to the
new gold fields on the Tanana, which are
reported to be very rich.
The Investigation of the stratigraphy
of the Yukon, begun by Mr. Collier dur
ing the last season, will be continued by
Dr. Arthur Hollick. Dr. Holllck will visit
a number of points on the Upper and
Lower Yukon, with a view to determin
ing the stratlgraphlc position of the coal
bearing horizons by special studies of
local areas and extensive collections of
fossils.
Tho Kayak Island and Controller Bay
petroleum and coal fields will be' the sub
ject of a preliminary examination by
Frank C. Schrader. It Is planned that Mr.
Schrader shall spend about two months in
this region, with a view to ascertaining
the extent of these Important deposits
and their probable economic value. Late
in the season Mr. Schrader- will make a
more hasty examination pf some of the
petroleum and coil localities on Cook
Inlet.
The Investigations in Southeastern
Alaska will be made by Dr. Arthur C.
Spencer, who, with, an assistant, will
make a special study of the Juneau min
ing district and map the geology of the
adjacent region. For this purpose a de
tailed topographic map was made during
the last season. Dr. Spencer will also
make preliminary examinations of some
of the other important mining districts of
Southeastern Alaska.
Alfred H. Brooks, who has charge of the
geologic work in Alaska, will go to Jun
eau In the early part of the season, and
later will Join Dr. Holllck's party on the
Upper Yukon for some stratlgraphlc stud
ies. Later still, In company with Mr.
Prlndle, he will visit the Tanana gold dis
trict. The month of September will be
spent by him in the Nome and adjacent
gold fields of the Seward Peninsula.
SILENT EASTER AT ST. ANN'S
Fingers of the Vested Choir Sang
"Christ Is Rlsen.J
New York Sun.
While elsewhere organs pealed and hu
man voices rose Jubilantly there was one
little church in New York where the East
er service was unbroken by any sound.
About 200 deaf mute3 had gathered in the
Church of St. Ann, in West One Hundred
and Forty-eighth street.
The preacher was John H. Kelser, a
young man of 23, who has been graduated
from the Washington College for Deaf
Mutes, and Is now preparing himself for
the ministry. 'He Is still only a lay read
er, but ho Is in training to succeed the lato
Thomas Gallaudot as rector of St. Ann's.
When the services opened the choir of
four girls. In white surplices, stepped be
fore the altar and with their lingers be
gan singing "Christ Is Risen." To convey
to the congregation the Impressions which
tho normally developed get from melody,
harmony and rhythm, the girls had to rely
exclusively on the uniformity of their
movements and .the rhythmical swinging
of tho arms to and fro a3 they spelled off
the words of the hymn. That the effect
on the congregation was strong was
shown by the way in which all swayed
their bodies In time with the slngers.-
The hymn was followed by the Lord's
Prayer, in which the entire congregation
accompanied the preacher. As the words
"who art in heaven" were reached every
Index finger pointed simultaneously up
ward. The choir then manipulated -another
hymn, "Angels Rolled the Bock Away,"
whereupon followed reading of the Easter
lesson and prayer. Mr. Kelster had tak
en the text for his sermon or rather for
his discourse, as a mere lay reader has not
the authority of preachingthe- words
"Now Is Christ Risen From the Dead."
and on that basis he retold the passion
story. The services concluded with the
poxology, led by the choir and repeated by
tho whole congregation.

SEATTLE, May 2. (Special.) In a game
as fine as could be seen In any league,
Portland lasted Just one inning longer
than Seattle and nosed out at the wire in
a race that was a .pprlnt all the way.
Both Miller and Loucks pitched great ball
and they were supported by perfect work
In the. field and fine free hitting at the
bat.
Loucks struck out ten men and did not
issue a pass, while Miller struck only one
and gave three free tickets. But at that
Miller kept the safe swate. separated for
just one more Inning than did Loucks
and won his game. Portland took the
lead In the third, scoring two runs on
safe hits by Wilson and Deisel, a clever
double steal, in which Wilson made a
terrific slide, and Davis' beautiful two
bagger. They repeated the performance
In the seventh on a single by Parrott, a
double by Hanley, and Wilson's second
lino drive.
Portland Wins in Eighth.
Portland won the game in the eighth
when Deisel led off with a hit. Davis did
likewise, and Parrott slammed the ball
up against the right-field fence. Seattle
did not have a look In until the fourth
when doubles by Tredway, Freeman and.
Stanley, and a well-placed single by
Loucks chased three . runs across. That
was all until tho eighth when singles by
Tredway, Hurley and Freeman counted
another. Seattle was unfortunate In the
fact that there were no men on bases:
when Tredway came up yesterday. He hit
the ball two terrific swats and scored two
of the runs himself.
