The Thanks giving day football game has been ar ranged to take place between the Ore gon agricultural college and the Unt- erslty of Nevada teams. The fear that the automobile and other appliances are removing the horse from the busy activities of life Is easily refuted by a recent report from Secre tary Wilson of the agricultural de partment at Washington. Here are some figures that are interesting: In 1868 the total number of horses ln the country was 6,762,940, valued at $432,696,636. In 1892 the number had increased to 15,498,140, and the high- water valuation mark of $1,007,600,636 waa reached. There were a million more horses In the country the next year, but their value had declined, and a decline both ln number and value set ln and con tinued until 1897, when the former was 14,864.667 and the latter only $462,647, 396, showing a shrinkage In value of more than 60 per cent ln five years. In fact, the value of the 14,364.667 horses In the United States in 1697 was only $20,000,000 more than the value placed upon 6,756,940 horses ln 1868. These were sad days for the horse He waa thrown out of the atreetcar business everywhere, and the bicycle superseded him ln millions of homes. For a time It looked aa If he had seen his best day. But hla friends were con fldent that he would rise again ln pub lic favor, and their loyalty to him was soon rewarded. In 1898 the reaction ln hla favor be gan. That year the number of horses In the country was smaller than it has been for eight years, but the value of the stock advanced to $478,362,407; the following year the value of about thd same number advanced to $511,074,313 and ln 1900 a smaller number by over 200,000 reached a valuation of $603,96, 442. the highest point ln six years. January 1. 1903. there were 14,657,873 horses ln the United States valued at $1,030,705,959. the highest point ln the history of the Industry. flrst appearance ln the ring since his defeat by Young Corbett at San Fran clseo on Monday, night, September 21. McGovern has had a good long rest and says his health Is better than ever. He has done about a week1 work for Smith, as he does not consider him a very tough proposition. A week later. September 88, McGovern will meet Chick Tucker. "Before the snow flies I expect to see George Gardner and Bob Kttzslmmons face one another In the spacious arena at Fort Erie, says a local sport. The present agitation between the men, and the boast of Fits that he will box the Lowell man at any weight suit able to the latter, must of necessity re sult In a meeting between them. I am satisfied that If the men would box at the new light heavyweight dlass limit we would see a bout which would repay the Journey. No one knows the capacity of Gardner, nor howTar he will It Is all right for some who have seen him work to deny htm his great ability, but one should Judge only by results, and Gardner haa been singularly successful In his flight toward the championship. He Is not a showy fellow ln the ring; he does not show any cleverness such as distin guished Corbett or McCoy; but he Is a wicked puncher, with rapid fists that fly around an opponent like hall from the heavens. He Is aa game aa a pebble, la one of the best blockers ln the busi ness and I cartnot see where be has any thing to fear from anyone at his own weight While we all revere Fltzslm- mons as the greatest that ever pulled on a pair of chamois-covered mitts, still he cannot forever shine as a leader ln the flstlc world. "Crediting him with must be confessed that he will have his hands full whipping the tall Irishman. Gardner has supreme confidence In his ability to whip anyone and It will be a severe test through which the winner cannot hope to come unscratched. Thirteen Innings at X,os Angeles. Los Angeles.

He was wined and dined; every homage was paid to his great skill. But the hereditary desire of his race for strong drink was too much, and In a short time his baseball career came to an" abrupt end. His fall, like his rise, was me teoric, and today.

There haa been marked difference between the race In the National league this year and the atruggle of 1902 in that for the first time in many sessons the Giants for the better part of the 1903 campaign really were serious contenders for the flag. With the exception of a couple of costly slumps McOraw'a men have-glven steady and aonslstent account of themselves, and even ahould they finish n third or fourth place polo grounds patrons always will consider that this year they had "a good run for their money." To be sure there have been streaka of bad ball on the Harlem meadow, when (he fana went away feeling blue and dissatisfied, but the majority of the contests were well played, and even If the Glanta were beaten In many games which the fans thought they should have won, there was no kick coming. Shows Oood Judgment. McGraw deserves praise for the signal ability he has displayed ln handling the i earn, particularly inc pitcners. xy me exercise of rare good Judgment he has kept the Giants well toward the front all season no little achievement when the material he had at hla command considered. With another pitcher th equal of Mathewson or McGlnnlty and the addition of a couple of hard-hitting Inflelders It Is safe to say he would have given Pittsburg a grueling tussle for the honors. One year ago the Pirates led the Na t tonal league procession with an ad vantage of 217 points over their nearest rivals, the Brooklyn. Boston wa third, Chicago fourth, Cincinnati fifth St. Loula sixth, Philadelphia seventh and New York a bad eighth. As compared with last season at this time Pittsburg shows a loss of .75, New York a gain of .232, Chicago a gain of .89, Clncln nutl a gain of .64, Brooklyn a loss of .36, Boston a loss of .84, St Louis a loss of .110, and Philadelphia a loss of .80. New York's improvement with a team that does not differ to any great extent from that which cloaed the season last year, is astonishing, and the results must be attributed to good handling by McGraw, who has been ln control all through the campaign, Instead of for part of It, as was the case ln 1902, Benefits Whole ! earns. The National league aa a whole has benefited financially by the success of the Glanta. On several occasions the. crowds were record-breakers, and when the attendance figures are summed op at the close of the season it probably will be found that no team ln the his tory of the game ever played on Its own grounds to a greater number of spectatora than did the Giants of 1903, FINE RACE CARD FOR FAIR MEET BZJUBOTOSS OF XTZ.TVOMAX PAIJt ASIOCIATXOZf COX7U3TB TOTA ABBAXaBMXWTS FOX ZYSXY- wnri BiaACi3roTrjrr--uar. rare xoksxs avd zjysstock.

However, it ia generally hoped that Durfee may not be ln a position to be. hampered at the meet here. - The presence of hla fast Sweet Marie and Zolock and the other rapid members of his equine family is regarded as es sential to the most successful conduct of the Irvlngton meet. Nevertheless," said a well-known horseman, in discussing the Incident. the decision of the Judges at Salem waa wise, and will Inspire confidence ln the future races that are pulled off in this locality. We cannot have races unless they are on the aquare. and they have not been on the square in the past, nor has there been responsible management to see that the obligations of the track were made good, and purses paid. Everyone will rejoice to see the men now in the association taking hold with tha determination to keep the sport clean and not to allow the Jobbers to make the meets again the scenes of such absurd exhibitions of foolish slaughter of the great sport of speeding animals as we have witnessed inthe past years. Apparently, the present managers have the people's confidence, and .the horse men like that sort of thing, for if they themselves are compelled to hold strictly to the rules they know that the others are compelled to do the same. "I think the prospects are bright for a good meet, and think at last Portland la to supply a sport now regarded aa prac tically essential to city life."
