required a costly two-base error to enable
the Beavers to win by 1 to 1 and yet the
only two runs the locals made were due
ta bungles by the vlrltorm. In the first
Inning. Intakes, who was safe at first on
Johnson's tad throw of his grounder, was
sacrliiced to second and scored on a wild
pitch. In the ninth, with one out. How

For the Beavers, a pass and two singles
made the tlrst run; Johnson's centerlield
fly that bounced over the aVnce, made the
second and two singles and Oakes' pass

HORSE SHOW TO OPEN NEXT THURSDAY
- ARRANGEMENTS ARE COMPLETE FOR GREAT HUNT CLUB FUNCTION IN ORIENTAL BUILDING
if if" .
"a i v
On Thursday afternoon the -Portand
Hunt Club will throw open th doors
of the Oriental building at the Lewis
and Clark Exposition Grounds for its
seeond annual horse show. Every
thing is In readiness for the show,
even to the smallest detail. On Friday
night the electric lights were turned
on and thos who take part in th
high school drill exercised their
mount under the brilliant glare of the
hundred of electric lamps. In order
to protect th publlo from possible
cold weather an extensive beating
plant ha been Installed and not only
do th steam pipes extend along the
boxea and reserve seats, but also In
th gaiiern wher th general ad
mission seats are located.
Th work of getting up a horse show
Is a tremendous ' task, fraught with
endless details and disappointments. It
is not an affair that can be thrown to
gether In a couple of weeks or even a
couple of months. Lst year the Hunt
Club officials had only a few months
in which to prepare for th show, but
In spite of th short time, tbs show
was a success. Since that the official
hav been planning for the coming
show, but the brunt of th bard work
has been during the last two months.
Most of the members of the club have
had a hand in getting things in readi
ness for th second show, but the
hardest of the work has fallen npon
A. M. Cronln, J. W. Cru triers and F.' W.
eadbetter. These men, during the
past month, have practically neglected
their own business- and hav devoted
all of their time to whipping things
Into ah ape and how well they have
don their labor of lov. thos who at
tend the show will be able to attest.
Mr. Cronln has handled the financial
end of the show and. has bad charge of
the sale of the boxes. The list of box
holders which is printed, together with
the seating arrangements, will show how
wen his work has been done. Practically
all of the boxea have been sold. Mr.
Cronln fully expects that before the open
ing afternoon or the snow all of tbe re
maining boxes will be sold. -
I pon th shoulders of Mr. C rut hers fell
th task of putting th Oriental building
In ahape. He removed th promenade,
which the society folk last year refused
to use, and widened the ring. In order
to have more boxes, he had constructed
ten additional boxes. It was not neces
sary this year to build the stables, but
the same task of allotting the stalls, fell
on him. Yesterday under the watchful
eyes of Mr. Cruthers, the boxea and in
terior of the building waa decorated and
the whole building was made- blight with
the red-and-wnita of th club colors.
Mr. Lavadbetter devoted much of his
time to getting entries and to getting- up
the catalogue, a task In itself that was
full of disappointments for tnanv days.
His labors, however, bare been well re
warded for in the S8 classes that are to
be Judged, there are nearly GuO entries.
Since Mr. cruthers threw open the
show ring for exercise, that place has
been tbe busiest In town, from S o'clock
m the morning until ft o'clock In th
a venlng. the ring has been alive with
horses and men. Horses attached to
vehicles of every description have been
nut through their stunts. Almost any
on can rid or drive after a fashion.' but

when It comes down to the real "know"
of the thing, but few oan do the trick
right. To hold a whip properly, or to
have accomplished the art of holding the
reins as they should be held, Is not ac
complished In a day. To drive or ride
a horse as If one were guiding a mud
scow, may pas as driving on the street,
but It gets the exhibitor nothing, in a
show ring, for it is Impossible to show
a horse at bla best under such handling.
It shows up the driver and bandioaps the
horse.
Portland may not be able to boast of
the best amateur whips In th country,
but those who are fortunate enough to
attend the coming horse show, will see
for themselves that th city haa some ex
ceptionally good amateur whips. This
will surprise many, for it has only been
within the last two years that the desire
to own well-appointed stables has taken
bold of those who could afford to have
private stables. The Hunt dub Horse
Show of last year is responsible for this,
tor up until this show was given there
were not more than one or two private
stable in the city, and they had nothing
in the way of vehiclea or horse flesh that
was any better than a common livery
stable outfit
Now In Portland there are many
splendidly equipped stables. People
who could afford this luxury have gone
Into this pastime in a manner char
acteristic of things done in this city,
and th number Is growing and by next
year there will be twice as many as
will be shown this year. The fad, if
it can be called such, has taken a firm
hold here and what la best of all, those
who have gone in for -ft, are getting
nothing but the best in the way of
vehiclea and horses. - -

bers, they are as nice a lot of saddlers
as any club in the country can boast
ef and among the mounts are some
corking, good timber toppers. Most of
them are rattling good show borses al
so and as for the riders, some of the
kiddies in the club can take the jumps
in a cross country run and ride over
a country that would make some of the
Bastern grown ups stop and pull up.
The Judge of last year's show was
never more surprised in his life than
he waa when be saw the horses shown
In the hunters class and he said with
out hesitation that taking them as a
whole he never saw as many good
huntera together in all of the shows be
had attended. Another thing that made
him say many nice things, was the rid
ing of the youngsters. He declared that
he never saw such perfect riders, or as
many who could sit a horse and
make It do Its work, as there are in
Portland.

WHITMAN ELEVEN LIGHT
OXIJP FOUR OP IiAST YEAR'S
TEAM WILIi PLAY.
Coach Blanchard Hopes, However,
Develop Team Which villi
Prove Factor in Northwest.
WHITMAN COLLEGE, Walla Walli
Wath., Oct 10. (Special.) With a
squad of 30 men, mostly new material.
Coach J. Merrill Blanchard is hard at
work endeavoring to select 'an .eleven
which will be a factor in the battle for
championship honors during che coming
season. Whitman's team this year will
be the lightest among the "Big Six,"
averaging only 160 pounds, but local
enthusiasts are hoping that this de
ficiency will be offset by a correspond
ing Increase in speed.
Of last year's team, only four men are
trying for positions, Marlin and Bor
leskl for the back field, and Matthews
and Harvey in the line. Borleski, captain-elect,
will likely hold down his
old position at right half, and Martin
at left half, although Alf Belt, of the
last year's scrubs, is making a strong
bid for the position.
Owing to Philbrook'a ineligibility,
Matthews, who last year played guard,
will be shifted to tackle, and Harvey
will fill the other position, which was
last year held by Dlmmlck.
Among the other likely candidates
for the team are Whitney, who is
showing up well In the back field,
while Cushman and Proudfoot are do
ing nice work at halves. Schmidt,
manager of Whitman's 1907 eleven, is
out for. quarter, but will be given a
hard rac by Brainard, of last year's
scrubs, whllo Proudfoot is also show
ing up well in that position. For cen
ter Clemens, a last year's substitute,
seems to have the lead, although Har
rah and Hug-hart are trying out. Mor
row, Willson, Bassett and Henderson
are after the guard positions. For end
Lewis and Proudfoot are likely men,
with Henderson and Oldright as can
didates. At a meeting of the squad last night,
Vincent Borleski, cf the Junior class,
was chosen capta'n, to fill the position
made vacant by Brubaker"s failure to
return to school, having been declared
ineligible by the conference rules by
reason of professionalism.
In reference to Whitman's prospects
for a winning team. Coach Blanchard
said:
"While we ar not making boasts
as to what we will do, I can say that
we are going into the gam to do our
best and give the opposition a run for
their money."
The schedule of games as adopted
by the executive committee is as fol
lows: October 24, V. of W., at Seattle;
October 27, Whltworth College, at Ta

RACES WITHOUT MISHAPS
First Contest on Xew Motor Park

Only One Participant Has
His Arm Broken.
LONG ISLAND MOTOR PARKWAY,
Oct. 10. By his marvelous driving of his
Italian car 234.6 miles in 219 minutes 64.25
miles an hour in the Motor Parkway
sweepstakes for stock cars selling at
HO0O or over, Herbert Lyttle not only
broke this country's speed record, but
demonstrated the success of the new tl,
000.000 speedway as a speed-making
course. As a spectacle and as a crowd
gatherer, the simultaneously run five
races were far below expectations. There
were few spectators.
Lrttle hit up high speed immediately
upon his release, from the starting line
where cars had been sent off in single
file 30 seconds ahead, and kept it up with
hardly a fluctuation from the rate of
M.2o miles an hour. The nearest approacn
to Lyttle's speed waa Hemery's In the
vanderbilt race of 1905. approximately
300 miles at the rate of 61.44 miles an
hour. Europe has the world's record
of 66.25 miles
Close Rivalry Shown.
. Only second In Interest was the close
rivalry between Sharp and Bourque of
the Garden City sweepstakes string. The
former covered 187.6 miles In 199 minutes.
It was a nip and tuck raoe for many
miles.
Experts praised the track. It shows
wonderful advance lr automobile speed
track construction and the effect of the
completed nine miles of 22-foot cement
course Is reflected in the results. The
fear that the narrowness mlftht cause col
lisions proved unfounded. The fact that
the track had been carried over or un
der all grade crossings but one eliminated
a great source of anxiety, delay and
danger.
Races Almost Bloodless.
The almost unprecedented freedom
from even minor accidents shows that
most of the horrors of the sport can
be eliminated by carrying out the plans
of the builders of this track. The race
also showed the great advance made in
car building, for all the entries were
stock cars with minor changes adapt
ing them to track work.
The only accident at all serious was
to Lamond, the mechanician in Miller's
car, contending in the Garden City
sweepstakes. He was thrown out and
sustained ,a leg fracture. The driver
took a spectator on 'the seatJand con
tinued in the race. Karl Wrlght's'ma
chlne was overturned in the Jericho
sweepstakes, but no one was injured.
There were only trifling troubles with
machinery and tires and there were
no collisions or even narrow escapes.

ROBERTSON WINS GREAT RACE
Exciting Finish of 200-Mile Con
test at Philadelphia.
PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 10. In the most
exciting long-distance automobile contest
ever seen in this city, George Robertson,
driving a Locomobile, today won the 200
miles race over a dangerous eight-mile
course in Fairmount Park. His time was
4 hours, 2 minutes, 30 seconds. L, Patchke,
In an Acme car, finished second In 4:14:64.
Ralph Mulford, In a Lozier car, was third
and A. C. Maucher, in a Peerless, finished
fourth. Mulford's time was 4:17:26 and
Maucher's 4:21:26. After the fourth car
crossed the line the remaining machines
were stopped and did not finish. In all,
16 cars started and only seven or eight
survived, the others falling out for var
ious reasons. There were no serious ac
cidents. The race was ths principal feature of
the closing days of Founders' week. Fif
teen hundred police guarded the track
and it was due 'to the excellent police
arrangements that no serious accidents
occurred.
The cars were sent away at half-minute
intervals beginning at 7 A. M. Half
a dozen care held the lead at different
periods of the race and finally Robertson
went in front and was never headed.
With him In the lead, there followed a
hot race for second position, in which it
waa destined that neither James Florida,
in a Locomobile, nor George Davis, in an
Apperson, leaders for" the place, were to
finish in that position. Florida was run
ning second, with Davis close up.
When Robertson entered his 26th and
final lap. a cheer went up and the crowd
settled back to see the fight between
Davis and Florida. The minutes paesed
and neither appeared, however, and It
was finally learned that Botn were out
of commission along the course. Then
came Patchke, In the Acme, and then fol
lowed the Peerless and the Lozier, nght
Insr for third place. They had Just gone
by the grandstand when Robertson shot
past, a victor, a lap ahead of his near
est competitor.

AIMING . AT FIRST PLACE
Endeavorers Plan Movement to Lead
In Missionary Work.
-K-TTtr rstjT ir a xra rv-f in Plana to lead
the Christian Endeavorers of the World in
membership and missionary offerings
were put forward tonight at a young
people s mass meeting wun um ii.ci na
tional Missionary Convention of the
Churches of Christ. Rev. Claude E. Hill,
ot Mobile, National Superintendent of
Christian Endeavor, outlined the Endea
vorers" campaign saying that it had been
resolved to make the centennial aim
"first place by 1909, by leading- an omer
relljlous bodies in Christian Endeavor.
He said:
"We aim to stand first In number of
societies, first In number of members, and
first In missionary offerings. W will
surely realize our aim. We are very near
the top now. I suspect if the whole truth
were known we would occupy first place
at this moment."
Rev. Parker Stockdale, of Chicago de
livered an address on "The Ministry in
Life," in which he said:
The temper of maacullna humanity In th
market place Is demanding that the goapel
shall make demands on tham that shall b
worth while. I belleva that ona reason why
men atay away from churchea today Is be
cause th pulpit Is bringing a soft and
effeminate message to them rather than the
virile, heroic message of the gospel. It nas
always tween true of the world that men will
answer to the heroic. A gas-Ilghted, flower
scented Chrlstialnlty does not meet th
requirements or masculine humanity, and
the pulpit might aa well understand now, if
It dealrea to reach men, that It must one
again lift up the cross and say unto men:
"Here la your opportunity for heroic en
deavor and aeir-sacrlncing aervlce In th In
terest of humanity."
