MONMOUTH TEAM ' The Monmouth basketball team went down to defeat last night before the All-Stars by a score of 18 to 25. It was the hardest and unquestionably the roughest, game that has been played on the Portland association floor in a long tme. Holding and elbowing were much In evidence. . In throwing baskets the Normalltes fell down, scoring only three field goals, two by Murphy and one. by Stein, dur ing the entire game, the balance of the throws being mads on free throws.- In spite of the rough treatment ao- corded them, the All-Stars did splendid "'work. Their team work has improved wonderfully since the first of the sea son. Mackla and Thornton did Ana work s forwards, each scoring three field goals. . , Young Murphy of the Monmouth team, in trying to duck his opponent's guard. came In too sudden contact with his elbow, and received a severe fall. How ever, he soon recovered, but did not Again enter the game. He played prob ably .the best game for the visitors, . The teams lined up as follows: All-Stars. Position, i Monmouth.

Mr. Bernard is one of the1 best, known actors on the Pacific coast and is well known here in Portland. He came here Js months ago from San Francisco, where he was stage manager of the Grand opera House. Prior to that time Mr. Bernard occupied a similar position in the principal Australian cities for J. C, Williamson. . Last year Mr. Bernard devoted his time to the presentation of The Wizard of the Nile" and the pro duction proved a pronounced sucoess. The club committee - Intends exceeding all former efforts in the rendering ."The Ameer": this: season, and the cast will be larg'u1 and. elaborately costumed. The play Itself la interesting and has many funny parts. The words were written by Frederic Ranken and Kirka I.a Shelle and , the music arranged by Victor Herbert. . The chorus in "The Ameer" is spirited and well worked up, as are all of Herbert's pieces, His latest opera, "Babette," which Is making such a phenomenal run in Philadelphia, with Fritst Scheff in the title role, is said to be Herbert's best composition. Her bert is of Irish descent and was reared In Germany. His ambition was to fol low the medical profession, but lack f funds prevented blm. : Talent turned his ambition to music and he soon made a record for himself as a cellist Anton Seldl, of sacred memory, and the great est orchestral leader of all time, brought Herbert to America. ils rise in this country has been rapid and steady. At present he is conductor of the Pitts burg Philharmonic orchestra, but will soon give up that on account of the growing demands upon his time. Mr. Herbert has been writing light operas for the last 12 or. IS years. Among them may be mentioned 'The Idol's Eye." "The Wisard of the Nile," "The Serenade," "The Singing Girl" and 'Cyrano da Bergerac."

Attell Is now considered by many as the legitimate featherweight champion, as it Is well known that Cor bett can no longer make the weight.

By defeating At tell and Yanger, McQovern believes he would earn the claim to the champion ship, aa he can easily make tha feather weight limit Although sanguine that he can dispose Of any of the featherweights now be fore the public, it is his one desire to get one more chance at his conqueror, Younr Corbett. t By meeting Corbett, McQovern says that he realizes he would be going out of his class, but that Corbett Is the only man he would agree to with such terms.

Speaking of his plans the other day, McGovern said: "My next fight will be in the summer with either Attell or Benny Yanger, w'ho are both top-notch featherweights. I have received offers to fight Eddie Hanlon, , but I have de clined them because Hanlon cannot make my weight, which is 127 pounds. "With Corbett I will aree to any reasonable weight I still believe that I can turn the tables on the champion and I am anxious to get just-on, more chance at him In the ring. 'What do I think of the Corbett Sulllvan boutt, Well, Sullivan will give the champion a harder battle than he expects and Brltt will give him the greatest battle' of his life. Just watch that fight. It won't be all Corbett." McQovern says fye will not enter the ring earlier than June. TO PITCH QUOITS FOR CHAMPIONSHIP F.

When the famous Palo -Alto stock farm held their final sale a abort time ago many Oregon horaemen journeyed all the way to San Francisco to secure one colt in the sale, whose breeding entitled him! to be a great horse.

McCarthy & Son have made arrange ments for seats to be placed on one side of the ale ring and will reserve a sec tion for ladles, who are cordially In vited to attend the sales. Sixty horses will be sold each day, and as there will be two auctioneers, things will move rapidly while the sale Is in progress. The Hunt and Driving clubs will be well represented at the sale. The large number of fast roadsters and saddle horses entered In the sale will give the clubs an opportunity to reinforce their already strong stables. There are two full brothers to Morengo to be sold the flrst-dayrn"lt is said Br Mr-Lazarus has his eye on one of them as a suc cessor to 'Morengo. The owner of the horse has assured Mr. Lazarus that the habit of unseating the rider at sharp corners does not run In the Morengo family, and that he will find the full brother to Ed OBrlen's old favorite a well-mannered horse in every respect.

MORLEY'S ACTION CAUSES COMMENT (Journal Special tervlca.) , Ban Francisco, Feb. 27. The abrupl resignation of Manager James F. Mor ley as head of the Loa Angeles baseball team, has, caused no end of talk and comment among followers of the game ln-tMsKy-and fans and ther-magnates are in a quandary. Ever since the southern city was admitted into the league three years ago, Morley haa been a prominent figure in league circles and no one ever thought of his resigning. What the final result-of the matter will be is something unknown at the pres ent time. Many opinions are expressed that Morley will come into the fold again "when patted on the back by tbo leatrue officers. The southern magnate tU: retains his interest in the team, and his resignation will in no wise affect the nine, though Morley is the largest stockholder. , . , His resignation has been forwarded to President .Bert by wire but so far Bert has not accepted it ; It is thought likely that John Brink, who is acting temporarily In Morley's place, will get the latter's job should he desire to take it. Baseball magnates here have nothing to say nor do in the matter and apparently do not care one way or another whether Morley quits or stays with the ship. Manager Ely of the Portland ctub ar rived yesterday and Immediately hunted up Bert and Harris and had a serious heart to heart talk with them. Messrs. Flelschner, Swigert and President Ben C. Ely of the Portland club were also present at the conference, the result of which is not definitely known, but It is believed that the Portland club was given the assurance of the league that there was a prospect of securing Castro by parchase. The case will probably be settled In this manner, which seems a most reasonable one, and as It is said that were a reasonable sum offered, Han lon will relinquish claims on Castro. Ely made no threats of resigning or withdrawing from the league, but had Morley not resigned and insisted on a fight Ely would certainly have joined him. - SHARKEY AND MUNROE .
