Forty thousand shells were sent to

them, but the captain of the Fort Vic
toria would not allow the shells, on

to make other arrangements to get
them to Belgium.
Cleveland hopes to get 1000 entries

has been the hope of the promoters

Cleveland will come through. Here's
hoping they will.
Miss Mary Campbell won the wom
an's trapshooting championship of
Kansas last year and repeated this
year. Miss Campbell gives every in
dication of becoming the best woman
trapshooter in the United States.

carry the United States to victory in
the Olympic games has shot at 122,

The trapshooters who attended the

A lot of gun clubs have been having

been exceedingly poor and It has been
with great difficulty that many of the
state tournaments have been con

Moonlight Excursion.
Members of the Portland Motorboat
club, to the number of tv or more,
will be entertained Tuesday evening
with a moonlight excursion down the
Columbia river as the guests of Fred
Vogler aboard his yacht Wisdom. .
Every Tuesday it has been the cus
tom for the members of the club to
gather in the club rooms for a smoker

little variety and with the hope of
having a large attendance, the meet
ing this Tuesday will be held on
board the Wisdom.
The yacht will sail from the Port
land Motorboat club at 3 P. M. sharp
and the trip will be made down the
river as far as St. Helens. It will be
strictly a stag affair. Entertainment
for the guests will be offered in the
way of music and refreshments.
The Wisdom, which is a gasoline
yacht capable of making an average
of ten miles anvhour, has an interest
ing history.
It was built several years ago for
Rex Beach, noted writer, by. a New
York shipbuilder. It was brought by
Beach from New York to the Pacific
coast through the Panama canal and
was used by Beach for making sev-
ral voyages to the South seas.
Uater the boat was sailed in Alas
kan waters for some time and finally
brought to Seattle. The .ownership
of the yacht changed hands in Seattle,
when it was purchased by 3. N. S-niih
of Portland, who brought :t to tnis
city with him.
The boat has been In the possession
of Mr. Vogler, rear-commodore of the
Portland Motorboat club, for the iast
eight months.

break all records. Nearly three-quar
ters of a million dollars was paid for
yeai lings here last season. Next
month nearly all the sales business in
the country will be concentrated here
in the hands of the Fasig-Tipton com
pany.
E. J. Tranter, manager of the sales
company, is of the opinion that the
yearlings that will be offered here
thtt year will bring a million dollars,
if not more, and that the unusually
heavy individual prices railized last
summer, when a man was considered
a piker if he stopped at a bid of $10,
000, when $12,000 to $15,000 yearlings
were common and some fetched $22,
500. $24,500 and $25,000, will be
topped. There has not in 25 years been
the heavy demand for thoroughbred
stock there is this season. A plater
that could with safety be risked for
j $1000 to $1500 last season and the
season oeiore is graDDea toaay at
$3000. A developed horse of class is
practically un purchasable. Persons
desiring racing material must, neces
sarily, look to the yearling market
and take the gamble incident to the
development of new and raw stuff.

GOOD' GOLF IS PLAYED

NEW YORK. July 31. (Special.)
we were beaten good and soundly to
day on the links of the Scarsdale Golf
and Country club by Jack Dowling.
who is the club's professional, and
Tom McNamara. whom Edward Ray
and I have seen play on many other
occasions. Our score was 6 down and
5 to play for the 36 holes. I should
say that we did not so much deserve
to lose the match as Dowling and
McNamara deserved to win it.
McIVamarn's Play Aniaslna.
Never have I seen McNamara play
better. His game was amazing and
particularly did he shine in his iron
play. Just to show how well he
carried out this detail of the game.
shall describe his play at the ninth
hole, both in the morning and after
noon rounds. This hole is a short one.
nd can be easily played with
iron from the tee. I think its length
aboiff 12o yards. It requires
pitch shot. And Tom McNamara gave
it everything it does require. From
the tee he pitched to the green and
lie within four feet of the pin. He
ran down his putt for a birdie two
In the afternoon he executed the
same shot in the same way and
with identical result. If anything his
afternoon drive fell a bit nearer
the pin.
Dowling- showed good form. He
went out in the afternoon in 3
strokes.
The play of Ted Ray was good, and
I was not far off and our score for
me aay was lar trom disgraceful.
Already we have lost more exhib
tion matches than we lost in all our
tour in 1913. 1 take that as a verifi
cation of my early statement that
American golf has greatly improved. I
We shall probably, lose several more. .
Perhaps some one may say that I am
taking it for granted that the Ray
and Vardon of this year is as good
a team as was the team of Ray and
Vardon of 1913. J am, for I feel that
we play fully as well now as we did
then. It may be that I have lost some
of my effectiveness, but I am sure
Ray has gained and it is a certain
thing that the great amount of play
we have had togetrer has not harmed
us as a best ball pair.
Their best ball score in the morn
ing was 67; ours was 69.
Ray Make Spectacular Shot.
They won several holes because I
missed easy putts, aa did Ray on one
or 'two holes. Others they won by
brilliant play, as in the instances of
the ninth hole in each round. The
mot spectacular shot of the day was
a 30-yard hole out from the fairway.
which Ray ran down at the tenth
hole in the first round.
We are looking for a hard match
today.. We play Walter Hagen and
Jim Barnes 36 holes over the course
of the Hollywood Golf club. Deal, N.
J. The first will begin at 11 and the
second at 4. The cards:
