Umpire 3i oran. NEW YORK'S SHERIFF PUTS 0. K. ON BOXING New Tork, Sept. 21. "In my opinion, boxing as at present conducted, Is a perfectly legitimate sport. All the con tests I have witnessed were conducted In a humane manner." This waa tha statement here today of Sheriff Harburger, who, as peace of ficer of the county of New York, thus gave boxing under the Frawley law, a clean bill of health. Sheriff Harburger expressed the same opinion to Qovernor Dlx In reply to the governor's Inquiry. For several nights past the sheriff has been at the ringside of some club. He witnessed the Kllbane-O'Keefe bout. a tieid of cignt ciuos. Babb. who is now making his home In Memphis. Tennis came out to Portland after the Tri-State schedule closed for the purpose of making: a two weeks' visit before returning to Memphis for the winter months. An interesting phase of the visit of Rni.h. who sat on the Portlund bench vesterday' and fanned with Walter Me Credle, was his meeting with Umpire Jack McCurthy. "Shake hands with an old team mate of yours. Jack, and guess his name," said Manager Walter, when McCarthy came out of his dressing room. They shook but McCarthy could not remember ever having seen Babb until told' his name and then he re called their experience together in 1896. McCarthy was Blso a member of the Portland club of that year. GlenalVfrt was manager of the "Club in 18!t, McCarthy was already a sea soned player and Babb was just break ing in. He we s a sensational fielder around third and crasy to play baseball, as he expressed It yesterday. The Port land club ran Into a lot of rain and the crowds were poor. Salaries hadn't been paid for wepkB. Ons day the skies cleared, the afternoon was warm and the field fast. An Immense crowd turned out and It is estimated that there was about J2000 in the gate. Everybody was happv for the players saw a chance to ent T-bor.es and buy new raiment. But the little glooms swatted the Joys nn the conk, for when they called arourd at the manager's office to make a touch, the found that individual and the receipts gone, so they say. The club broke up after that and the play ers scattered to all parts. In 1897 Babb breezed back to 'the mid dle west and got a Job with the Fort Wayne Club, playing third, and It was here that he became acquainted with Walter McCredio, who was playing the outfield for Youngstown. Later he went to Memphis and from there to the New York Giants. . He was playing with New York when MnCredle waa with Krooklvn. Tn 1904 New York traded him to Brooklyn for "Bud Bill" Dahlen, both being shortstops. After leaving Brook lyn he went b;.ck to Memphis and man aged the club for several seasons. Last year he was at tne neaa or a ciud in the Virginia State league and this spring was engaged to manage Reading. GET MIME BOUT San Francisco Lightweight ts Ordered to Put Wrist in Plaster Again.

Rich, the Klamath Falls shoe merchant arrested In a California town last week, charged with polygamy, ts now in the county Jail awaiting preliminary hear ing before Justice Holrnan next Mon day.

He removed with her toKjarnatliJllghe,raJie engaged In the shoe business. All was well till Miss Nina Cohen arrived on the scene from San Francisco, claiming she was the original and only wife of Rich.

Later he was surrendered to Constable Randle, of Grants Pass, s warrant having been Issued by Justice Holrnan on tha complaint of Mrs. Smith, a sister of Miss Layton. Bonds were placed, at $750, and the elder Rich, fa ther of L. B. Rich, telegraphed that sum from California, and the doors of the county Jail swung open. Liberty was short lived, however, as Just as Rich Was to board the southbound train for San Francisco, having already pur chased his ticket, a telegram came to Deputy Prosecutor Johnston from Mrs. Rich No. 1, stating that she was leav ing for Grants Pass, and asking that Rich be placed under heavier bonds. Justice Holrnan at once raised the bonds to $2000, and Rich was returned to jail, his father, who had sent the first amount, not responding on the second call. Rich explained his matrimonial en tanglement to The Journal's correspond ent by claiming that while he and Miss Cohen had lived together in San Fran cisco as husband and wife, they had never been legally wedded, the common law marriage not then having been le galized in the. southern state. Miss Cohen, or Mrs, Rich No. 1, as emphatically states that Bhe is the le gal wife of Rich, and win arrive In the city to prove the claim. Miss Layton, Mrs. Rich No. 2, is at the Layton home in this city and both will be here for the preliminary hearing Monday.

That the world's clismplonshlp linsabnll series will begin Monday, October 7, has been practically agreed upon by the National commis sion, which will meet here next Wednes day to draft final arrangements for the frames. This date is based upon the assumption that the Boston Americans and the New York Nationals would be the pennant winners tn their rispsotlve leagues. As Boston already has the American flag cinched and as the Giants will fln lah thelr,i4yiBg season 4MUtr nd are 'virtually sure winners of the Na tional pennant, an nrly start for the bl annas is desired, it 1 said. "Hello, Jones; whats the trouble?" "I'm all "ni, HolvrTlind out. Gdf a Tad case otlfneu matism, my stomach is all out of gear and I have hardly enough energy to breathe." "Why don't you .see a doctor?" "I've been to half a dozen already, but here I am in the same fix. Saw my family doctor firit, and he gave me a lot of dope to take. One compound was to build up and strengthen my stomach, another was a medicine to stop the rheumatic pains, and the last was a stimu lant 10 brace me up generally. "Well, the dope made my stomach weaker than ever, l'.ven the smell of the stuff was nauseating, and the hor. nble taste it left in my mouth was really worse than the ailment itself. "The stimulant cave me energy for a while, but after I had taken it for a few days I had to double tne oose to get any effect at all, and it soon failed even to stimulate. "The rheumatism medicine relieved all the pain, but, lika the stimulant, it, too, quickly lost its power. "After ;hat 1 concluded my doctor didn't know his business, and 1 went to irveral others, but with the same result. "I was determined to secure some permanent relief, so 1 called on Dr. Van Soakem; he has the biggest reputation of any doctor in town, you know, lie looked me over and then wrote out a pre scription for some dope. It proved to be the rankest ctuff I had ever taken, and it certainly out me cm the sick list for keeps.' "What hurt me almost as much as his medicine was Dr. Van Soakem's bill. The size of it was enough to make any man sick. He didn't waste any time on me, either. I'm done with doctors and drugs for all time." "Now, just wait a minute, I know what will cure you. It's Electra-Vita the electric body battery you have hea,rd so much about. I've met a number of people who have used this appliance, and they say that it does .he work. The Klcctra-Vita people nave a free book which explains all about their method of electric treat ment. Call or write for that book, read it carefully, and then uje your own judgment. Good day, Jones; I hope you will be better the next time I see you." ' Acting upon my friend's advice, I sent for the book regarding hlectra-Vita. I must say that it is one of the most interesting works I have ever read. It is written in plain language, is beautifully illustrated, and deals with human ills in a sensible way. The information it contains is worth a great deal to any sufferer. After reading this book, I called at the office of the Electra-Vita Co. and had a talk with their consulting physician. The doctor gave me a thorough examination inAloldjpeJustwhat the treatment would accomplish in mv case.Ic also sHowed me letters of Dralse-trom people in various walks of life who had been cured by J Llectra-v ita. Here are a few ol them "I am perfectly satisfied with Klsctra-Vlta and wfcat It h as., done, ...I will gladly : recommend. Jltoanjrone- aL have already done to three or four. W. F. MORGAN, 141 Bo. E Bt.. Tacoma, Wash. "I hare used Electra-Vita for some months, and thins It fine. It has done me mote good than all the drugs 1 Lave ever taken. ROY KINSMAN, Klamath Falls, Ore. "Certainly I am well pleased with your appliance. After two weeks' use of Electra-Vita the rheumatism left me and my nerves are getting stronger. I feel like a new man. ANDREW OROVE, Cottage Grove. Ore. JB ft V 'I V l V 1 I used Electra-Vita Just thirty days, following the doctor's directions closely, when my stomach was completely cured. It has never bothered me since. The rheumatism soon left me, and has not returned. My vitality increased from the first day under the strengthening, invigorating influence of electricity. I want to say right here that Electra-Vita is not to be confounded with old style electric belts. It is entirely different, although the method of application is somewhat similar. Electra-Vita makes its own power and does not hare to be charged. The current enters the body in a soothing, glowing stream. It does not shock or irritate. The appliance is worn at night while you sleep, and th. lse ot it does not interfere with work ir business.
