The" 6600 people who witnessed yester
day's game saw Engle pitch some excel

Engle kept his hits well scattered and

CUNNINGHAM IN TROUBLE.
Umpire Cunningham is having his share
of trouble art Helena. While he Is con
sidered the most competent umpire in tho
league, it remains for Helena to find fault
and nearly mob the little 'man. It took
the combined force of both teams yes-'
terday to-protect the umpire at the end
of the game and escort him to the club
house. Then the police had to escort him
to the hotel.. Summary of the Helena-Ta-coma

Dan Creedon, once middJrivciBht cham
pion of Australia, went back to his unlive
land lam week, working his passtge as
sailor before the mast. Although Dan is
only ;i4 years old,' M4 hair la gray, and at
first glance one would take him to be h
man of 50.
His first fight of importance In th'j
country took place at Boby. Ind.. In
183, when le knocked out Alex GreKgains
of San Francisco In 15 rounds. Greg
gains was then on aspirant for middle
weight championship honors, and Cree
don's victory placed him at once among
the leaders of hl.i class.
Until September, 1891, when he tried
conclusions with Bob FltsslmmonB. Cree
don lived up to his reputation and won
several battles In short order. Even after
Tils defeat by Fltzslmmons he scored sev
eral Important victories.
FINELY BRED HORSES.
Many who attended the races at irvlng-
I ton Friday and Saturday put In a portion

Zombro, 2:11, was the mont admired.
.This grandly tred young stallion, which
was sired by McKlnhey, wos the great
est 3-year-old trotter this country ever
produced, , and although his record of 2:13
at that age has been beaten by other 2-year-olds,
no colt ever rlfced with more
consistency or showed greater racing
qualities. Out of 17 starts he pulled down
13 firsts and three times got the place)
winning for his owner $5300. He beat ev
erything on the Pacific Coast excupt lago,
2:11.- In that race he stepped the middle
half In 1:02H
George T. Beckers Is the owner of Zom

Buying In Large Quantities
ITS EFFECT UPON PRICE.
The wholesaler has tin advantage over the retailer simply be
cause he is able to buy in larger quantities.
The retailer must buy from him and then sell to the public
Suppose YOU were the retailer.
You would save his profits.
Eilers Piano House makes you a retailer when you buy piano
or an organ. ,
How?
Because we buy for the four largest and busiest houses on the
Pacific Coast one in Portland, one In Sacramento, one In San Fran
cisco, and one in Spokane.
We can afford to sell -you a piano for Just about the same
amount that the ordinary dealer himself must pay the factory for it.
For example, say the retail value of an Instrument were $350,'
the ordinary retailer will sell you that instrument for $390.00 and
boldly advertise that you get the benefit of a reduction of $60.00.
That piano cost HIM maybe $250.00. If YOU went Into the retail
piano business as a dealer it would cost YOU about that amount.
Now we sell that piano to you for as low as $195.00.
This Is -where your benefit comes In when you buy pianos
from us. ;
. The fact that we practically wholesale to you explains the whole .
problem of price.
Of. course we reduce shipping expenses by dealing in large quan
tities. We don't even ship pianos In boxes. Our special cars come
direct from factories to our large wholesale department on Marshall "
Street. These cars are made to receive pianos without boxes, and de-, ;
Hver them te. us in perfect condition., We save thereby at least' -$125.60
on each carload for freight alone. '
t We have not only solved the problem of shipping, but others as
well, and you get the benefit of every dollar thus saved.
,.;v . These things show why we do the largest business of any piano
house in the United States why we are constantly Increasing: the
volume of our business. ,
- In the matter of quality of goods we selected the finest, Instru- -.
ments that money can buy. Today we carry the leading pianos man
ufactured In the world: The celebrated Chickering, of Boston, the
beautiful Weber, of New York, and the now famous and superb Kim
bail, of Chicago.
In addition to these we have the Decker, Vose, and over as other ,
makes of pianos, giving the purchaser not only the largest stock to
select from, but more makes than are to be found in any other piano
house In the United States.
Lowest prices, easiest terms, and best Instruments are the In
ducements that we offer you. Are they not worth investigation?
