Is Conducted by Two Widows and Patronized by Leaders in Society. Portland Wives and Daughters Who Lovo to Woo Dame Fortune's Smiles. YORTLAND, Or, June 19.—Portland bas a gambling-house owned by women, operated by women and patronised by women. That is the chance discovery made by Detective Weish while he was engaged upon a recent case. This gam- bling-house, says the detective, is in one of the finest buildings In the heart of the clty, and no one unless pessessing the cret would suspect that such a place existed. The establishment consists of four rooms, in one of which faro is deait by a female deuler, and stud poker also holds forth. The second is for short cards, the third is a refreshment room with a bar as elegantly fitted up as the most fastidious would cire 1o patronize, and the last apartment is a dressing-room, presided over by a discreet negress as black as a coal pit. The gambling-house, says Welsn, is conducted by two “grass widows’ bearing excellent reputations among many of their acquaintances, who are ignorant of this novel enterprise into which they launched the latter part of last month. The rooms are fitted up in a style bor- dering upon princely luxury, and must have cost a bandsome dot. It appears to be a good investment for the two widows and a certain elderly cavpitaliss who | “staked” them to the greater part of the money expended upon the novel project. Welsh ascertained that the two widows | bava an extensive acquaintance with a good class of society women who are pos- sessod of means, or who have access to the bank accounts of their male rela- tives, There were, perhaps, a dozen who had a desire 10 gamble as men do. To these could easily be broached the scheme, which 8o far has proved a success. They encouraged it by the promise of securing the patronage of other women similarly inclined. The games run full blast irom 2 to4 o’clock every afternoon excepting on Sun- days, and so far the owners have won more than the original costof fitting up their luxurious apartments. They have no need of personally adver- tising their scheme now, as their patrons do that for them, whether they lose or win. They claim that none but women enjoving good repute are admitied to their zambling hall by means of a card of introduction. As scon as their resort gaius any notoriety they will close its doors. COAL FOUND NEAR GARLOCK, Bituminous Deposit Which Will Dispose of the Fue/ Question on tte Rand. GARLO Car., June 19.—Consider- able excitement has been caused here by the discovery of coal about four miles northeast. W. H. Heald, the discoverer, to-day bonded a mine for §15,000 to J. A. Haralson, W. J. Suliivan ana F. A. Pratt. A force'of men will be immediately put at work developing the find. The coal is bituminous, of good quality. Tests sbow that 1t burns frecly, leaving a fine white ash. Pians are being consum- mated for the erection of a smaiter, as the coal is pronounced of th2 bust quality for smelting. Copper mines will now be opened for with coal in the vicinity it is claimed they | can be successfuily operated. Coal in sui- ficient quantities will setle the fuel ques- tion which has been a great drawback to this section and will muke milling cheaper. $ i STOCKTON INCENDIAKISM, Futile Attempt to Destroy a Chinatown Ziwitding, STOCKTON, Car., June 19.—There was agreat deal of excitement in Chinatown last night, caused by the reports of three pistol shots, followed by an alarm of fire. A blaze shot up in a narrow space be- tween two buildings back of a Chinese dwelling on Hunter strest. The officers could not learn who fired the shots, but it is supposed they were discharged by a Chinaman to arouse the occupants of the building, which some one had at- tempted to burn. This morning Officer Walker fouund in the aliey where the fire started a wrapper of a pack of cigarettes, inside of which had been stuffed a lot of Chinese cigarette aper. T o saturated with coal ofl, and a bunch of matches which had been I'ghted lay beside it. The papers had been slightly burned, but the fire was trampled out before it could make any headway.

Didn't Know Himself. ALAMEDA, CaL., June 19.—Late last Pitcher Hughes Carries Off the Sha-e of the: Day’s Honors. ion's Nine stalwart young men came down from EBacramento yesterday and pro- ceeded 1o do funny things to San Fran- cisco's pet aggregation of bail-tossers, There were all sorts of weather during the afternoon, including a very little good baseball weather, but the lowering clouds effectively kept a large portion of the crowd which might otherwise have been expected away. 1f rainy weather is not just the kind of weather to make the Sacramento boys piay ball they must be a very tropical'set of young men when they do bave things to suit. In spite of a slippery ball and a game which was theirs in a walk, the visitors put up a game that set all the cranks talking of old times. The Gilt Edge pitcher, Hughes, was par- ticularly sirong and his record of a run every time Le faced the Vioiet pitcher is something to brag abour. Hughes had three hits to his credit, two doubles and one good for the entire circuit. His field- ing record was nine men struck out, :ix& put-outs, three assisis and a clean error column.’ Henesey, the elongated first baseman, got nearly as much credit out of the game, and none of the nine played ball to be ashamed of. The Violets put un @ steady game and their errors were not numerous consider- ¥ ing the number of times the ball was hit, | night Officer Kump found a man wauder- The Sucramento boys touched up Fitz-|ingin the vicinity of the tidal canal wno patrick ratherly warm y, and that was the | was apparently demented.

Good Coursing Was Witnessed at the Ingleside Park. The Interstate Club Gave One of Its Enjsyable Meetings on the Green. Between twelve and fifteen hun- dred people witnessed the Interstate Coursing Club’s “ladies’ day” meeting at Ingleside coursing park yesterday, and as the sport was of the high-class order a grand day’s outing was enjoyed. The officers of the day were: Dominick Shannon, W. C. Peyton, H. G. Layng, S. W. Smith and I. F. Halton. John Grace, as usual, iudged the courses to tue satisiaction of all present and James F. Grace slipped the hounds beau- fully. William Halpin, the oldest Trojan of them all, acted as siip steward and J. Sheehan as flag steward. The field stewards were T. J. McHugh, C. C. Gris- wcld and James Wren. The slight rain that fell during the meeting sesmed 1o put life into the dogs and bares and the running was conse- quently first class. The winning doss dia justice to themselves and their success was due principally to the very excellent form they were in when they were turned over in charge of the'slipper. In the champion stake Moondyne de- feated Fireball and Firm Friend defeated Pretender in the first ties, and in the final Moondyne won first money after a gruei- ing race from end to end of the field. In the puppy stake Nelly ‘B defeated Gallant Foe and Jester cefeated Douglass, and in the final run Jester captured first honors. Some first-class running resulted when the old dogs met on the green sward to test speed and endurance. Daisy Crest beat Queen A, Eciipse beat Gaslight, Flashlight beat Black Prince and Bran- don Bell beat Premier. In the running off of the first ties Echpe beat Daisy Crest and Fiashhight beat Brandon Belle. In the final ties Fiashlight beat Eclipse and his owner pocketed first monev and also the credit of being owner of a first-class greyhound. The Iadies and gentiemen present en- joyed a grand duy's sport and retired from the fie d in the evening thorougly satisfied that coursing, when properiy conducted, is as good sport as any rerson fond of field pastimes could desire. To-day there will be a 42-deg sweepstake run and doubt- less a lurge gathering will witnass it. s e aeadiok iy FUNDS FOR THE FOURTH, Meetings of Committees to Divide the Three Thousand Dolilars.
