UNFAIRLY TREATED.
The University of Oregon track team
returned from Seattle yesterday, after
engaging in a farce field meet with the
University of Washington. The boys
claim they were unfairly treated, and
that they have severed all athletic re
lations with the Washlngtonlans. The
Oregon captain has this to say of his
treatment: "We were certainly Jus
tified in our action, and I believe
that public sentiment, is on our side.
Of course, we shall ba criticised severely
in some quarters, but those who under
stand the true situation cannot fall to see
the unreasonableness and injustice In
Washington's arbitrary treatment of our
protest' Manager Caches of Washing
ton had ample time to secure evidence
in favor of the Pearsons, If such evi
dence existed, but, I assure you, no fair
minded committee could have acquitted
them of the charge. However, we ex
pressed ourselves as willing to abide by
any decision of an arbitration commit
tee, and appointed our committeemen to
act. Washington, on the other hand,
flatly' refused to consider the protest.
Manager Oacues giving as his excuse that
he did not have evidence on hand to re
fute the charges. Our protest was sub
stantiated by numerous affidavits from
responsible parties, and the evidence was
of a very damaging nature. The truth of
the .matter is that Washington was
afraid to stand by the decision of an in
vestigating committee. We offered to do
this,' but were not given the opportunity.
We did not care to enter into a contest
with a cowardly lot of sportsmen, so
merely started men in the different
events In order te insure the payment of
our transportation expenses."
PORTLAND-BUTTE.
McCloskey and his giants- spent a quiet
day around the - lobby of ' the Imperial
and Schiller's cigar Store, talking "shop"
with the local team. They will meet
Vlgneux and his men on , the diamond
at 1.30 P. M. today and continue the ar
gument with bat and ball, weather per
mitting. MISCELLANEOUS NOTES. '
The Century Athletic Club of Los An
geles Jls thinking of raising its bid of
330,000 for the Jeffrlea-Fltsslmmons fight
to 340,000. They do not intend to deal
in percentages at all, but will offer a
cash purse. . Fltzslmmons says that he
will most likely train at Skaggs Springs,
Lake County. He has visited the resort
and la delighted with the surroundings.
At a special meeting of the board of di
rectors of the Multnomah Amateur Ath
letic Club held last evening. Judge Will-

the next regular meeting of the board. England.
!s the figure we have placed on 200 MEN'S $15.00
and $16.00 SUITS. There Is no reason for selling
them at this SACRIFICE PRICE other than that
they are broken sizes. These suits are mostly
this season's styles and are GOOD VALUE at the
original marked price. There are not all sizes in
every lot but there is every size in some lot 33
to 42. Also FAT MEN'S and SLIM MEN'S sizes.
No such values have ever been offered in Portland.

THIRD AND OAK STREETS,
It is probable that Judge Cake, who has
twice been (honored with tue presidency,
will be again elected to- that office.
The accounts of the newspaper writers
who witnessed the Jack Jeffries-Jack
Johnson fight, agree that the black man
simply outclassed the champion' brother-
and systematically wore him down and
put him out in the fifth with a etiff right
cross to the Jaw.
Billy Armstrong and Danny Dean have
been matched tu go 20 rounds at Ross-

REFUGEES LEAVING.
BT. LUCIA. May 21. A hundred refugees
have arrived here on the steamer Helga.
The new eruption of Pelee which threat
ened Fort de France, caused the exodus.
The refugees report that when they left
Martinique a panic prevailed and that
people were taking refuge aboard the ves
sels in the harbor.
ANOTHER JOKE
ON FIRST
STREET
Not Samples, Though, But
Some That Were Evidently
"Knocked Out" In Spokane.
ItI a significant fact, ' said a cor
respondent for an Enstern music trade
paper yesterday, "that with the exception
of Mr. Blnshelmer, every firm of piano
and organ dealers' in business in Portland
at1 the time Ellers Piano House com-
nienced here haa gone out of existence."
Not a single ..one of the firms which
at that time took such special pains to
belittle and decry' Eilers Piano House re
mains here In business tod.ay.
'This la certainly an uncontrovertible
proof of the auperlority of the pianos
carried by the Eilers Piano House, and
positive demonstration of our ability
to furnish retail and wholesale buyers
more actual piano value for the money
than can ny other dealer or agency.
The days of consignment dealers that
is, firms that get their instruments
through San Praaclsoo wholesale houses,
or through money lenders or middlemen
generally are numbered.
And under Mr. Heidinger's able man
agement of Eilera Piano House of Spo
kane, since nearly two years ago, history
seems to repeat itself there.
Only late last week we learned that
the entire stock of Mark F. Jones &
Sons of Spokane was being shipped out
of the city there. The eintlre store on
Riverside avenue was entirely cleaned out
of pianos and organs. Jones received
their pianos and organs on consignment
from an erstwhile prominent Portland
firm on First street, which let "its am
bition drive it to San Francisco." And
now the Jones Spokane pianos turn up
in Portland and are evidently being ad
vertised by a First street house as "man
ufacturers samples, . and odd styles of
regular stock"! ODD styles well we
should guess yes!
Pianos and organs that have been
standing around Spokane, vainly waiting
for buyers that somehow seem to have
gotten into the habit of patronizing Eil
ers Piano House! "Manufacturers' sam
ple" and "odd styles," Indeed! .Well,
rather.
Now as to prices. . ,
A piano shipped Into Spokane from the
factory costs an average of J26 freight.
And then from Spokane to Portland the
freight is something like $14, or a total
freight charge of $40, say nothing of cart
ages and boxing.
It costs Eilers Plane House not to ex
ceed (10 a piano for freight under our pat
ented system of shipping pianos in har
ness to Portland.
Therefore, If these little dealers could
buy their pianos for the same that Eilers
Piano House can at wholesale (and they
cannot even hope to do this), and if these
self-Bame little dealers were willing to
sell at the bare factory cost and freight
then Eilers Piano House could still sell
the iam kind of pianos for 125 each
less, and clear a reasonably decent profit.
Then again, you would be getting a brand
new, fresh and clean piano, from Eilers
Piano House, Instead of one of those
Jones Spokane pianos that must have be
come sadly shopworn moping around up
north. And, mind you, the San Fran
cisco, or middleman Jobber's profit is not
taken into consideration here at all
which probably means another saving to
Eilers Piano House patrons of 130 or
more. So 'tis plain -we are beating them
by J6Q per piano.
Is it any wonder then that Eilers Piano
House is RPlling so many pianos? Is
it to be wondered at that; Eilers Piano
House sold seven fine pianos at retail
yesterday, besides innumerable pianos and
organs at wholesale?
Is It any wonder that frantic efforts
seem to have been made In Seattle of
late to raise cash to take, care of an
option of a one-half Interest In the First
street, concern, of Portland, Oregon, as
per the Seattle Post-Intelligencer of
March 24 and later Issues?
Let us. therefore, repeat I
If you are looking fdr the best pianos,
at the lowest possible prices,. and on most ,
favorable terms of payment, you will
surely make a mistake if you do not pat
ronize Eilers Piano House. Beit pianos,
lowest prices, easiest payments these are
the underlying elements of Eilers Piano
House success. Remember the number,,
