IBERG SIGNED TO PLAY WITH BROWNS Herman Iberg, the crack twlrler of Hank Harris' 3an Francisco aggrega tion, commonly known, as "Slowball Ham," has been signed for the 1904 sea son by Manager Ely to uo slab duty on the Portland team. Iberg is a favorite among the local fans, and his acquisi tion by the local management is hailed with delight. With Iberg the locals' pitching staff will be . complete, witb the possible exception or .arlan or Bowman, - whose applications are now being considered by Manager Ely. ' - Iberg' la now : ai his ..ome in San Francisco, where he is a property Owner. He will leave for Bakersflcld in a few days to Join Butler and the other Browns. : "Ham," as - his friends like to call him, is tone of the. cleverest and ablest pitchers, in the country, and .can easily hold hla own in the fastest company on the diamond. With the Philadelphia Nationals in 1902 he made, the heavy batters of Uat league look like so many of tuosfi little-animals that" are often seen ; riding around ' : on . hand-organs. His- slow, ball is as ueceptlve as his speedy ones are s terrorising,' and if a team cannot win with Iberg in the box, then It had. better disband and. go to 'Work, i-i '-U-yv. ;'t In this city Iberg is greatly admired, not alone for his. great pitching ability, but tor his many good traits of charac ter.

Pacific University, Feb. 10. Manager Smith Of the woman's basketball 'club has at last prooured a suitable place to practice in and the basketball team re organised. A team would have been in the field earlier, but owing to the fact that the building in which they prac ticed was being used for other purposes, the glrs had to wait for further de velopments. Last years team was a good one, and as most of the players are again in school this year, it wUl not take long to get into chape. Under the efficient coaching of Instructor Wilson, the team will be fairly strong, although it was late in getung into the field. RACING RESULTS (Journal Special BottIc.) . San Francisco, Feb. 10. G.

Carney, George Hanson, Jack Hol land, Will Dammann, Ike Durrett 8. D. Loucks and F. Martlnke. - There are two names in the list whose acceptance of contracts have not been mentioned those of Hanson and Mar tlnke. ' The latter played third base in 20 games last year for Oakland, and is considered a comer by those who have watched his work. Manager Rellly writes that he has been watching the work of the young third sacker, and predicts that he will be the star of the league before the season is half over. Last .year Mar tlnke broke into the game and covered the third base in a satisfactory manner for the Oakland team. This year a great deal Is expected of him. , Rellly Is supposed to be in Seattle at present, where he wishes to see several players. He states that he has signed up a good team and will be ready to play ball with the best of them when the season starts. He has Hanson to catch, Carney, Loucks and Hogg to pitch and wants to place Holland, Durrett and Frary in 'the outfield. This will make a good outer garden. With Rellly and Martlnke in the infield, the diamond will luive at least two good men. t CLUB STOCKHOLDERS' MEETING TONIGHT The stockholders of - the Portland Baseball, association will assemble to night and come to some arrangement whereby they will ; effectively dispose of the club's Indebtedness, presumably by an assessment Some of the minor stockholders are raising a howl about being frozen out or something to that effect Just how they can substantiate any freezeout policy to the deal is hard to understand, for the club -is In. debt and they are Just Ss much llablo for Us debts as the larger stockholders.

McCloskey, umpire-baiter, good fellow and baseball impresBarlo, has again changed his location on the map. - Any one town on this mundane sphere of ours gets too monotonous for Honest John, so after each season he seeks pastures green and new. John always manages ' to secure a good town, or if the town is no good, the foxy John sees to it that some verdant angel supplies the necessary majuma to float the club Jn style, for a good part If not all the seaBon. ; John evidently has a good thing in Boise, or he would not be so anxious to leave Salt Lake. - Salt Lake had a taste of Lucas ball last season antl perhaps they were not so anxious tf come through with the lucre as McCloskey et al. would have them, so he and his cohorts cast about for something easier. One thing about Mac, though, is that he is a good baseball man and manages to land somewhere every, year. He is foxy. V - i. . TO XSYXYB . A. W. (Journal Special ferric.) ' . Boston, Fob. 10. The national as sembly of the League of American Wheelmen, which began its sessions In Boston today, is but a faint echo of the great gathering held here less than a decade-agOr-when tha-4oncs -i famous organisation was in the senlth of its prosperity. Where the old-time as semblies were attended by hundreds of delegates representing all parts of the United States the present gathering is composed of but" a handful of members -who-repreaentprlncipally the New York remnant of the league. . Judging from talks with the delegates a last effort is to be made to revive the departed glory of the league. The New York delegation is on hand with a new constitution and by-laws, which, if adopted, will result in a complete reorganization. - The most interesting feature of the plan is a pro vision which alms to recover control of cycle racing, which was wrested from the league a few years ago by the Na tional Cycling association. - SAXJC3S STAKES AVVOUVCED.

Among the birds on show are a black Langshan cock and hen belonging to Frank Fen wick of Mt. Tabor. Mr. Fenwick has exhibited these birds at Chicago and succeeded in capturing the first prise with them at that exhibition. , .The White Plymouth Bocks constitute as fine a variety of that kind as can be found in the west'"-.- -. -,' The black tail Japanese bantam is a unique specimen, and is exhibited by a fancier from Woodburn, vr. Among the finest exhibitions at the show is Gene Simpson's collection .of nrlse Leghorns, in colors, buff, brown and white. Mr. Simpson is a resident of Corvallis, and is an enthusiastic poultry breeder, and hls collection of bull Leg horns is one of the handsomest ever seen here, and are said to be among the finest in the country. Mr, Simpson has been successful in many poultry shows on the coast. ' There is a collection of Light Brah mas on exhibition which tip the scales at from 8 pounds for the smallest hen to 13 pounds for the largest cock, and as there are some eight or nine birds in the collection, they attract con slderable notice.
