THE SUNDAY OREGONIAN, PORTLAND, JUNE 28, 1908. SYRACUS t IV I i J III I Leads Columbia and Cornell by Only Few Yards at the Finish. CONTEST BEST IN YEARS Pennsylvania Sets Pace In First Three Miles at Poughkeepsie, but Does Not Last Wisconsin Brings Up Rear. POUGHKEEPSIE. X. T.. June 27. Swinging their sweeps with powerful strokes which carried their slender shell through the water-at all but rec ord pace, the Syracuse varsity crew won the big four-mile race today for university eight-oared crews. They headed Columbia by less than one third of a length and Cornell by a bare length at the finish line, after-one of the most hotly contested and most in teresting regattas In the eleven years of collegiate racing on the Hudson course. Incidentally, Syracuse took from Cornell the trophy which Is the token of victory in this race the varsity challenge cup, presented in. 1898 by Dr. Lewis L. Sea nan, Cornell, to be held by the winner 'for one year. Pennsylvania Soon Fails. The crew from Syracuse won by tha power behind their blade? and by su perior watermanship. Columbia and" Cornell rowed well throughout the contest and pressed the winners hard in the last mile. Pennsylvania's eight made the pace for nearly three miles and then went to pieces, finishing six lengths behind Cornell. Wisconsin -was reckoned as a con tender until the three-mile mark was passed at Poughkeepsie bridge, when J. W. Wllse, Xo. 2, collapsed and put the Western crew out of the contest. He soon recovered and the Wisconsin men rowed bravely on, even when Wilse fell over on his oare again. He again revived sufficiently to swing an oar as the Wiscbnsin crew swept over the finish line more than a minute behind Syracuse. - Ovation for Winners. The winner was greeted by the roar of many voices, the shrieks of whistles and sirene and the reports of explod ing bombs, set off from the bridge. Syracuse won also and for the second successive time the race for university four-oared shells for the Kennedy chal lenge trophy the first race of the day leading the Pennsylvania crew over the line by nearly two lengths and covering the distance of two miles in 10 minutes, 62 4-6 seconds. Columbia crossed the line third, three lengths behind Pennsylvania, which had fouled the Columbia boat in the last half mile of the contest. The judges disquali fied Pennsylvania and awarded Columbia place honors. Cornell Loses by Fluke. ' Syracuse was the actual winner, but many felt that but for a mishap Cornell would have won this race. There are no coxswains in this race, and the shells are steered by the bow oar. Cornell went wide of her course and ran her boat's sharp prow plump Into the mark ing buoy at the one-and-a-quarter-mile mark, and the craft stuck there until help arrived When the collision occurred she had a lead of four lengths and was arawing rapidly away from ner com petitors. Cornell carried off the two-mile race for freshmen eisjht-oared shells for the steward's rup in handy fashion, going over the course in 9 minutes. 29 3-a sec ands. three lengths of open water ahead jf Syracuse. Columbia was third, Wis consin fourth and Pennsylvania fifth. Harry Nelson, the crack pitcher of the Alameda State League club, has signed a contract and will join the club today. Xelson belonged to Mobile, having been drafted from Tacoma at the end of last season, but a trade has been ar ranged by which Mobile takes Pitcher Killian, the southpaw, for its claim on Xelson.

"If you're confident way down in your heart of seating the other fellow, the battle's more ihan half won," says Jim Jeffries, who. f anyone should be able to get close to ihe facts, ought to.be the one. So, if Jeff has spoken the truth, there will be two winners' in his ring at Vernon on the afternoon of July Fourth, when '"reddi Welsh and Packy McFarland meet to decide what practically amounts to the lightweight championship of the world. Both boys are so sure that they will win that neither admits any pos sibility of defeat, and the result should be a determined battle. The more the McFarlandVWelsli scrap is thought of, the classier it appears. The stockyard wonder has gone through more than 40 battles without tasting defeat, and out of his 50 meetings with other boys, Welsh got the short end of the purse on but a single instance. And the verdict in that instance is a matter of discussion between Welsh and Mc Farland. "I should have won because of a foul Packy handed me," says the English man. "I have won because of my merits." asserts Packy, and there the matter stands. McFarland says Welsh will be easy over the longer 25 rounds route, but the way Packy is going about his training does not denote anything that backs up the assertion. The Chicago boy has located his camp at Jack Doyle's South Side Club, close to the arena in Vernon, and with a full force of partners is already at it early and late getting into shape. Packy is a little heavy at present, but says that a few miles on the road w-ill soon reduce his poundage to the proper figure. .One of McFarland's stunts is to play handball, and the local amateurs are out at Doyle's every afternoon giving him an" argument. Packy is no won der at the game, but at the same time he manages to keep along- with the string, and win his share of contests. Freddie Welsh has made a hit at Venice of America, Abbot Kinney's famous city on the shores of the Pa cific. His quiet manner and clever work In the ring attract a big crowd to the Amphitheater every day, and the beach residents intend to string the bank roll on him against Packy. The advance sale already indicates a house which will total at least 15,000. Xo seats are being delivered, but the batch of orders already on the list serves to show the general interest in one ot the grandest cards ever 'staged by a fight club.

August Belmont's Colt Defeats High Class Field of Three-Year-Olds in Near Record Time. SHEEPSHEAD BAY, June 27. Be fore a crowd of 15.000 persons, August Belmont'c Fair Play, carrying top weight. 126 pounds, won the $25,000 Coney Island Jockey Club stakes at Sheepshead Bay today, defeating a high-class field of three-year-olds. Fair Play was admirably ridden by Xotter. The boy allowed the field to race away In front, and at the turn to the stretch he called on the Belmont horse and won. Hessian was second, with King James third. The time of 2:31 1-5 for one and . half miles, equals the track record made by Stalwart In 1904, and Is less than a second slower than the record time for the distance, made by Goodrich at Chicago in 1898. The race was robbed of its main in terest by Colin and Celc not starting. The two colts are under a veterinarian's treatment, and it was upon his advice that Mr. Keene did not send them to the post for the rich event. Of seven carded to start, two were withdrawn, the Whitney entry, Stamina and Royal Tourist, leaving five to face vhe starter. Given Good Start. They were sent away to a good start, Angelus going to make the pace, fol lowed by Dorante and Hessian. King James and Fair Play alternated in last and next to last places. Angelus opened up a two-length gap around the paddeck turn, while Dorante was about a length and a half before Hes sian. In the run down the back stretch An gelus still led. At the far turn Do rante took the lead, followed by Hes sian and Fair Play. In the stretch Not ter brought Fair Play up outside of Dorrnte. but the Belmont colt, under a hard drive, managed . to win by a length. Hessian was also a length and a half before King James. Race for Two-Year-Olds. The result of the great trial $25,000 stakes chowed that John E. Madden had the best twoyear-olds of the year. His two colts ran one, two. Sir Martin winning, with Fayette second, and Hel met third. The ride that J. Lee put up on the Madden Colt, Sir Martin, was considered by many horsemen the best ride seen here in years. The Madden entry curried top weight. 129 pounds. Bobbib went out to make the early run ning and took a lead of half a length over Fayette, with Helmet third. Sir Martin was fourth. Bobbib continued to show the way to the elbow of the main track, where Fayette took com mand, with Helmet at her side. The race at this point looked to be between the first two, but Lee, on Sir Martin, seeing that his stablemate was in trouble, put the colt under a hard drive. Gradually he made up the lost ground and at the sixteenth he was on even terms with Fayette and Helmet. In the next few strides he was a length to the good and flashed, under the wire a winner by two lengths, with Fayette a head before Helmet. Rejects Big Offer. After the finish of the great trial stake P. J. Rainey offered Mr. Madden $40,000 for Fayette, but Mr. Madden promptly turned the offer down. Results: Six and one-half furlongs, main course Wwrtbury won, Rogeben second, Demund third: time, 1:19. Steeplechase, about 2 miles California King won, John M.

SULPHUR KILLS SQUIRRELS Weston Farmer Finds Effective Means .of Exterminating Pests. WESTON, Or., June 27. (Special.) Edward Anderson, living on the foot hills near Weston, has originated a cheap and successful method of ex terminating squirrels, which have caused much damage in his locality. Locating a populous squirrel colony, he goes out with an equipment of news paper scraps, sulphur and matches. At every hole he places a slip of paper and a teaspoonful of sulphur. Setting this afire he covers the blaze - with weeds and dirt. The result is that the squir rels are all smothered In their sub terranean houses. Not one Is ever seen to burrow out after the method is thor oughly applied. In exploring a squirrel village a day or so after Its wholesale asphyxia tion, Mr. Anderson saw only two little pests scampering about, while formerly several dozen were in sight at once. Evidently these two were visitors from an adjoining colony not yet fumigated. Neighbors are taking up Mr. Anderson's plan, which promisee te permanently solve the squirrel trouble here and elsewhere. It is economical, simple and effective. One pound of sulphur worth 15 cents will kill about 200 squirrels. BUMPS FAVORITE AXD LOSES Rose Queen's Record Time at Mead ows Disallowed by Judges.

COAT COSTS HIM $500 TEAM Farmer Appears In Bearskin and Horses Take Flight. GARFTELD, Wash., June 27. (Spe cial.) Because he stopped his harrow and went to the house for a bearskin coat, John Simpson, a farmer, started a run away In which his team was so badly in jured both horses had to be shot. Simp son had but recently refused $500 for the team. Simpson left his horses, attached to a disc narrow, standing In the field.
