Portland ., beat Butte yesterday at a
acore ef 10 to 1. The twlrlers In the biff
I mining camp seemed bewildered from the
1 start, and the Portland boys kept adding
to the lead which they gained in the first
Inning. The local Infield gave one of the
finest exhibitions of work ever seen here.
The game could hardly be excelled Jor
clean, gentlemanly work. The eighth
inning developed into a thorough slug

Fltsslmmons took a run in Golden Gate

Jeffries "'Is "still held, to be the logical

TRACEY-FERNS MAf CH OFF.
Tom Tracey has received word from
Kansas City that Rube Ferns, with whom
he was matched to light in Seattle on
August 18, broke his arm while training
and will be unable to nil his engagement.
As a consequence the light has been de
clared off. ; y
When Jeffries was interviewed by a
San rancisco reporter Tuesday he said:
VI have spent the day quietly, doing
no training whatever. I arose shortly
after 8 o'clock and after a hour spent
about' the hotel I went to breakfast with
TITUS
my friend, 'Dick Adams, who arrived
from Los Angeles yesterday. My morn
ing meal was comparatively light. After
breakfast I went to the bull game with
Adams. I enjoyed it, but must gay that
I was sorry to see the Oakland boys lose.
They are wonders at the game and can
never be caught In their race for the
pennant. . , v" ' :
"We returned to the restaurant and I
ate a hearty lunch. I feel exceptionally
well today and do not .miss tny ordinary
training. After lunch Adams proposed
that we go to the baths .and I agreed.
I took a half hour's swim in. the big tank
and felt fine when I left I then took4
a rub-down, after which Adams and my
self strolled leisurely back to town. We
ate dinner - and now, here I am. I shall
KP to bed In a few minutes. ,'.
"What shall I do tomorrow? Well, In
the morning I'll take to the road with my
brother and Joe Kennedy. My work will
be light In the afternoon I'll go to the
gymnasium, where I will box with my
partpers. do the machines and punch the'
bag. : '
"Yes, r will work right up to Friday,
but as I said before, my work will not
amount' to much. You see 1 am ready to
go into the ring at a moment's notice and
make the fight: of my life. My training
Is practically, pver, and when the time
comes t will make good every thing I have
promised." ' .
FIT2 AND HIS FRIENDS.
When Fltsslmmons arrived In San Fraiw
Cisco from Bkaggs' Springs he was 'met
with a lra;' band and escorted to the
California . Hotel. . This Is what one has
to say ot the Australian upon his arrival

FAIR SITE
The Director Will
Again Tonight.
EAST SuOE JEALOUSY
Said to Militate Against Selection
of a Location on That Side
of the River.
"Ninety per cent of the stock of the
1805 Lewis and Clark Exposition (s
owned on the West Side of the river,
j and this should control the location of
the Falr.y vsald Edward Mendenhall, at
tornejv for th priposid Portland-HUIS'
boro electrld" rullwny. And that fact Is
the reason given why the exposition
should be held' went of the Willamette."
ejaculated -a gentleman later on, who Is
greatly interested in thp success -of tho
Fair project but unwilling that his name
be made public. "The trouble," he coni
tinned, ''seems- to bu that a number c
tluj directors are not looking so much to
the paid , admissions us to thn expo
sition, as . to other mutters really ' nyt
pertinent to -the -show ar all. The tnu.
ter of - improving the park as uad
been said, bfore, ought to be a secondary
consideration. t. - That of ownership
of the stock , now- subscribed should be a
still more, distinct thought, because - it
is not to b a Ciy Park affair. To b;a
success It -must b$ at least a trl-state
enterprise, and It cannot be expected
that Washington and Idaho will look
with favor" upJh" the request that then
commonwealU), erect buildings In Port-J
ana witn uri eye single to tne Deautin
cation or Improvement of 'a Portland
park."
Tonight the' Board of Directors wlll
SbW' -nhOthr'-MellTrn wheff'Y von'
il tire location at the KxpoBitlon may of
may . not be taken, hut in any eVent it
Is believed that a site on the East Side
will not be closed. Tnere seems to be a
strong aversion among the directors' to
the bridges that span the river, though
it Is not explained how much greater
will be the difficulty for persons to cross
the bridges going) east than to travel
over them bound to the west side of the
Willamette-:"
Present Indications are (hat the - City
Park discussions will be abandoned, rt is
thought that not enough votes call be
concentrated on that point to make , it
win, and that the tract .at Wllamette
Heights, in the northwestern section of
the city, will be chosen.
' Air-East Side director said today that
the 'trapble ever 'Ibere is that Sellwood
is Jealous of Central East PpVtland, and
bitterly;; ppoMd: to University Park! or
any other locations tn that section of the
city. The same Jealousy is prevalent In
the Alblna regions as regards Sellwood
and 'Hawthorne Park, and this antagon
ism is seised upon by, those - of . the
Board opposed to alt East Side sites, to
land the Exposition somewiiere west, of
the river..' - J". I ,
'' It is rprobable that further time will
be taken-to dlseitss ' thk" matter and that
a conclusion will hot be reached tonight,
yet It ia believed that an informal, vote
may be taken, Jnst to test the sentiment
of the directors. ' " "' !,. , " '. ' ,
Mr. . Mendenhall, - will renew his offer,
made 'In the Interest of i the HlllaborO
proposed electric road, to fun a Spur Into
the City Park, and he paid this morning
that. for. that matter, his line would go
down to the Willamette Heights site If
the exposition Is -located there.

He was taking a short cut through

One. of these enterprising men volun
teers the Information- that he has noticed
that until they attain a weight of two or
three-pounds eels travel In droves, prob

this man suggests by. the desire bt a
family' of lusty young eels to pass that

The Incident reminds lumbermen here
of an occurrence at a little lake to the
north' o? the Temlscamlngue some years
ago In order to supply a rapidly-falling
stream wfth water enough to float a large
number cM logs the Ottawa River, it
became necessary to cut through a rocky
natural dam and allow a little sheet of
water to discharge into It. !
' The' blasting powder did its work well
rand 'the log drivers aocompllshed thetr
objectcomfortably. On the Tiext Bundayx
several of the men made their way back,
to see the result ,of their sudden drain"
age. of the lake.. They found about au
acre of 'thick mud 'at the;ve,ry ,'centwe
of where thepond had been, -and this
was alive with a struggling, writhing
mass' of great eels.,.,.' - , ;". "f J -ili-:

weta so huge that 'the cook refused to
have anything to do with them,, as tie
did not believe eels grew to such a slsa,
A few days afterward a number of men
went "to see the monsters, but found tha
mud quite dry and not a fish to be seen.
Various theories were advanced to ac
aount for their disappearance, as that a .
heavy thundurstorm had furnished water
novghIor, them to leave for the almost
drled-up brook. Another suggestion was
that wild beasts and birds of the' eagle .

The Bible rendered-Into-"braid Scats'
W-he latest crime In translation, far sur
passing the horroraof ven the-"honetlo

nadian with ' the , unsuspicious name of
William Wye Smith. In nn Introduction
he makes hla apology, for thinking such
an offense . desirable: "And thar . are a
hantet o' folk and I meet them a'-gate
wha dlnna apeak Soots thelrsela, but are
keen to hear It, and like to reaS it And
,thnr is anlther consideration the Boots
tongue Is no gettln" extendlt, and some
folk think It may be tint a' tha glther
'or lang."--Of the translation Itself the
following': passages from the 12th chapter
of Revelations win give a fair idea: And
the ylrth helpit ; th iwumman; and the
yirth jOpen't her mou','.and swallowed up
the spate that the dragon belched forth
frae his mooth.. And tne -dgon was f u'

almost as audacious as , the attempt to
make Shakespeare out as Bacon. '
