T' Recent svents In . ths kennel world promise big things for the future of the ,'Pactflo Kennel League" at no distant date. . . t , The letter published In The Journal a few days ago, which was received by W. W. Peaslee, secretary of the league, from the American Field, which is the recognised authority on sporting mat ters In this country, leaves little doubt -!: :.- J. A. TAYLOR ': '.-' -President of the Portland Kennel Club. that the league will In a very short time be the leading kennel organisation of the United States. Until the past few years the American Kennel club, an eastern organisation, was the only one, and has continued -to be recognized as the predominating power In doggy mat ters in this country. The extravagance of Its. demands, ths. arbitrary manner of ... Us enforcement of many of - Its rules and the laxity In its form of reg istration, have combined to put ' many aspiring communities out of the busi ness of holding successful bench shows, and to make, the nanie of the A. K. C, obnoxious to many ; honest fanciers throughout the east and west, West ern dor owners especially beoame tired of the .old regime and several years ago organised the P. K. L. which has steadily gained In strength and popu larity, till today it has under Its Juris diction all clubs on.the coast from Van couver. li. C. to Los Angeles, Cat, ex cept San Francisco. . . ' Tlx Present Situation. The present situation and. develop ments that are certain to follow In the near future are of far greater Impor tance to residents of the Pacific slope than the ordinary individual may im agine. ' The news will be scattered round the world by hundreds. of superior publications which cater to the fancies of lovers of dog and field sport. . Lo cally,' interest In present conditions hould be keen, as Portland seems to have been the pivotal point of the ex istence and success of the P. K. L. since Its inception, but not until the organi sation of the Portland Kennel club five years ago, under Its ru,les, was the P. K. L. on a positive and sure footing. The Portland club has continued to give by far the best exhibits of any. club under Its rules, many of the classes at the various shows here being fully equal to those in the large east' rn cities. It transpires that for the past two years prominent officers of ths A., K.' C. have frequently approached those in close touch with the local club wltb the suggestion that they secede from the P. K. U and apply Tor mem bership In the A. K. C. no credit, how 'ever for work 'done or wins made under tr. xv. aj. ruios i on inowcu. - : Ons-Sidsd Proposition. ' The proposition seemed too much one sided to the great, majority. who t had spent much, time and money In improv ing- the quality of their pets. Quite an (Tort was made, however, some time ago to effect the change ' by some, who still clung to A, K. L. ideas, which, it la claimed, would have proved success ful had the present president of : ths club signified a favorable opinion lot the matter. It was evidently a well-recog nised fact; at both ends of the line, that If the Portland club had Jumped, the traces the P. K. L. would have been entirely disrupted. Mr. Taylor, how jer has. with others, consistently claimed that while he has always re gretted the apparent necessity for tho original formation th Coast league, he could not eee any special benefits to be gained,, by making such a move un less the A. K..C. saw fit to make some substantial concessions. The action token by ths late convention of dele gates from the various coast clubs, which was held In Seattle, has evidently had something to do with, bringing th existing condition of affairs to a head at ths- present time. The propositions which wers- then promulgated for th consideration of the A. K. C. were mainly brought about by delegate V. O. Scott of this city. Ths members of the Portland Kennel club, are : now unani mously of the opinion that the P. K. L. will in future be recognized as an or ganization equal to any of Its kind.

San Francisco, March 19.- "There is nothing .like keeping people, guessing," said Young Corbett a day or tw,o ago. He seems to believe that the best way to arouse and maintain interest in 'a big sporting event Is to create a doubt In the- public! mind In regard to sorrfe of the particulars. It was while talking on the subject of weight that Young Corbett delivered himself T as . above. There, was dissatisfaction among news paper correspondents because the cham; plon steadfastly ref usecfrto be seen on the scales, and it was when twitted with his lack of consideration for ths reading public that Corbett made the characteristic remark.-; There is ft great deal of guessing ; In progress at that Those who follow the sport of the ring closely are satisfied that Corbett will be at weight all right ' About the only point that Involves ' any guessing is whether he will train down to 130 pounds st 6 o'clock on March 15, or flhd: It necessary to take vapor baths at the eleventh hour 'In 'order to conform to the articles of agreement . : Corbett WiU Xaks Weight. . So far; as can be Judged' of Corbetfs Jactlcs at this time, he will reach the weight naturally.; He is working steaa fastly and regularly and Is behaving himself In all respects like a youngster who feels that a critical period In his career Is at hand.' Brltt seems to be - dropping to the notch with less discomfort thr.n was looked for by his friends. He Is .a hard trainer, and In the ordinary course of the routine grind he has touched 132 pounds.- He says" that , whenever - he found himself thus low he indulged his appetite for Sloppy foodstuffs, not car ing to be so close to weight at this stage' of proceedings. It must be said that Brltt does not appear as fine drawn as the writer ex pected to find him when the fight was less than, a week distant: There is not a rib showing as yet and he looks as though he will do ths weight without BASEBALL SEASON OPENS NEXT WEEK BBIQBT OUTXOOX TOBt TXB COAST XJlAQTrETOXTmUTD BTAXTS ZJT WITH TACOKA.

After an Interval of several months, during which time, ths men have rested up and the managers enjoyed their an nual spasm of talking, the Pacifio Coast league will Inaugurate ths season next Thursday In California. At this time last year the outlook for : the Coast league was somewhat blurred by the presence of . an opposition league that had teams In Seattle, Portland,, San Francisco ana Los Angeles, but this sea son the Coast league will start under the brightest auspices. Every club has gathered together good players, and the race must certainly be an Interesting one. The same managers who finished ths Season last year wilt be In command this year, and great things are expected from them. Chief among the able managers Is Fred, Ely of ths Portland Browns. Man ager1 Ely has collected' at a great ex pense an, aggregation of stars to rep-, resent this city. They havs assembled at Bakersfleld for early training, where they cleverly-defeated ths Chicago Na tionals ths other day In an exciting 1 lnnlng contest The only remaining troubls ls ths contention regarding Shortstop Castro, but through the aid of the "Castro fund" it Is almost posi tive that tbs clever shortstop will soon belong to Portland. - . Ths remainder of ths team are strong, swift and heady players, and would be at home In ths major leagues. Portland will pen at Fresno with Ta coma, Oakland at Los Angeles with the Angel, and Seattlwrin begin- hostilities with San Francisco. Th wish of svery Portland fan Is that the Browns will havs a successful season and carry off the pennant honors. On the opening day ths teams will line up aa follows; Portland at Presao. Portland.

Diamond, made a popular strike when It secured an exclusive running week for this city extending from ths 8th to ths 27th of August with ths privilege of con tinuing until September 10. Those who were present at last season's meet In Portland will recall with pleasure ths splendid sport furnished at Irvington track under ths auspices of 'the Mult nomah Fair association. Ths races last season, although only for a week, were ths most popular and Interesting sver run on the Pacifio coast : This season promises a repetition of the good things with a longer season. When it la .considered that over 2,500 fins running horses are on the Pacific coast an idea of ths business that en tails to maintain those stakes Is secured. President Williams of San Francisco has promised to send 500 horses to the Port land, meet This large shipment of horses here will compel the local asso ciation to -enlarge their stables ' to .the extent of adding about 250 more. Mr. Diamond says that the cost of ths im provements contemplated at Irvtngton Park will reach $10,000. - Owners of. horses are anxious, to keep their horses on the coast ; rather than race In ths middle west on account of the oppressive heat of the middle coun try. With good treatment accorded them on ths coast ths horsemen wilt maks a special endeavor to render the best rac ing In their power. . Another feature of the meeting will be ' the - presence of Frank Skinner as presiding Judge. No mors competent official could havs been- selected than Mr. Skinner. H knows ths owners and ths horsesv and his work hers last, year was thoroughly appreciated. v BXUC ttTXUTABT BAXt TEAM. . One of the liveliest academic teams on the local diamond this season will be, th Hill Military academy nine. For ths- past thrr weeks th'i cadets havs boen out practicing under the coaching of H. Q.

I was only hurt one with a blow In the stomach and Yanger was the fellow who hurt me. I think what hurt me most though, was, the taking of some chicken broth Just before going Into the ring with But the fact remains that not only the fighters but the sporting fraterhiay generally look 'upon Corbett's. midrfft as his tender spof and it is prophesied that If Brltt , wins, it will be with the punch that distressed Jack Erne and Martin Canole. . , - In the general sizing up that both men are being subjected to credit la given Corbett for being a harder ipuncher than Brltt and also for having hands that wear better and a head that does not rattle so easily. .The Brittr factlon Wlll not have it that Jimmy goes to pieces quicker than COrbett when punched. They arguCe that Corbett ; has hjeen "chipped" again and again In a San Francisco ring and that .all his cun ning had , to be . brought into play to tide him through ' the effect of ex ceedingly light punishment , . They concede that Corbett may prove to have more durable hands If It comes to a bruising, long drawn": out battle. but they claim "tliat in everything that goes to make up the fighter Britt out classes the Denverlte. Someone asked Brltt how he -would carry himself if .Corbett started "kid ding as he generally does when facing an opponent : -:: ' vl don't think hell g& In for kid ding thte time. I ll be too busy,7 said Britt The opinion Seems to be that it will not be a "kidding" fight ? It Is believed that Brltt hit the nail on the head When he said it would be a busy affair witn little time - ror Dadlnage, which Is customary when Corbett is de fending his title.
