Portland 11 41 .203 The ball team the Portland Brownles sent over to Oakland yesterday to give battle to the leaders was positively the worst looking outfit that ever gcampered o'er the green. It was all patches and blotches, -but at that the Lohman combination was nearly nosed out at the finish. Score, Oakland b, | Portland 4. When Manager Dugdale called the roll, he discovered that Drennan_ and Francis were out of commigsion. . What could he do but put two pitchers, But- ler and Druhot, in the outfield. Then just to make it worse again, the Port- land magnate Connors by name, to mystify the stars from Osakland. He was the limit and had to be sent away after into the box then and Con- nors took his place in center field. The first thing Connors did was to let Schlafley’s long fly soar over his head and roll to the center field fence for a home run. Oakland had the lead in the fourth inning by a score of 4 to 1.° But the Brownies began to awaken finally and ere long they eased three tallies through the lines and tied up the re- sult. But at that they could not play good ball long enough and In the sixth inning Murphy refused to cover first v double play and so Oakland lamded with the run that won | for it the game. Buchgnan was lambas(ed pretty hard at timeés, but, as usual, Portland could not travel on the bases. It_took at least three hits to bring in a Tun. After the fifth round Buchanan got into the game and the Browns were powerless with the bat. The only real good chance they had was lost in the ninth inning, when with two out and as many on the bases, Murphy fanned. Buchanan made a new season’s record | by winging twelve of the Brownies out on strikes.- The score: Oakland— [ Portland— AB.R. H. P.A AB.R. H.

CHICAGO, May 31.—Old Boney Boy has at last broken down. This one- time good racehorse, owned by “Pa” Bradley, has probably run his last race. No horse racing on the American turf has faced the barrier more times than this son of Blitzen-Sue B. For six years he has raced over all kinds of tracks, in all conditions and in all kinds of weather. Having practically worn out his usefulness on the flat, { Bradley sent him over the jumps, and in the East this spring he stuck to his task in these timber-topping events Just as he had done for four years on the flat and defeated some of the best Jumpers in the East. To-day he made his first appearance at the local tracks this season in the short course steeplechase, the feature of the card at Hawthorne. Naturally, out of sentlment, he had a good follow- ing, and he took the first two obstacles | well up. Then he stopped suddenly. Seaton dismounted and the old horse ifmped along on three legs. The left fore underpin had given way and he was plainly a badly broken-down thor- oughbred. With him out of the way, the real cont was left to Itagatlara, Handvice and Ceylon, and they finished in that order. James Arthur's Bondage turned a | joke on the bettors in the third race at one mile. Moharib, J. W. Schorr's | Kansas City Derby winner, was play- ed as if the race was all over. He was backed from even money to 3 to 5, but second was the best he could do. Bond- age came on in the stretch and beat | him a length. The track was slow, the weather clear and the attendance good.

GRAVESEND, May 31—Owing to the radical change 4n the track at Gravesend because of the heavy raln- storm, the long run of favorites which had almest bankrupted the bookmak- ers, was checked—whether temporarily or not remains to be seen. In race af- ter race the first cholce was beaten until that consistent horse Hurst Park came to the rescue and sent the play- ers of first chpices home happy. No doubt there were several false \ favorites, as was the case in the first event in which De Reszke was pre- ferred to Ascension, notwithstanding the partiality which the latter has al- ways shown for a heavy track. It was no doubt because Hildebrand was on De Reszke and Travers was on Ascension that the first named caught most of the play. In the second race §. H. Brown’s fine Sir Dixon fillv Wayward Lass was & well plaved favorite, but she was forced to pull up with second money, although at one stage of the race she seemed dangerous. Helgesen took her wide and W. S. Fanshawe's Schula- mite, who was leased by her -owner from Clarence H. Mackey, came on up the stretch a clever winner.

There | were 104 entries including half a dozen Americans, namely: Walter J. Travis, C. E. Dick, E. M. Byers, W. W. Bur- | ton, F. O. Horstman, C. E. Emmett | and J. Walter. Four days will be occupled with the championship games. In the first round H. W. Orr beat Horstman, 4 up and 3 to play. ‘W. W. Burton, American, beat Nor- man Cockell, 3 up and 2 to play. Walter J. Travis beat H.. Holden by 4-up and 3 to play. E. M. Byers beat Dick, 2 up and 1 to play.- This was one of the most sur- prising results of the day, as Dick, a Scotch international ‘player, showed great form in the recent cup contest. In the second round C. E. Emmett beat Gilbert Elliott by one. hole and grawtord Hutchison beat Moller by one ole. “IRON HORSE,” BREAKS DOWN AT HAWTHORNE LONG OUTBOXES WALTER MORENO Vietor Uses His Left to Ad- vantage and Has the Lead in Every Round of Battle BOTH MEN ARE CAUTIOUS Jack O'Brien Shows a Great Burst of Speed and Gains Decision - Over Abe Label When Joe Long and Walter Moveno had completed their little four rounds f mixing and jumping about last night there was nothing left for the judges to do but award the victory to the first named. The fight was his from 'the moment the initial punch was aime He used his left and right hook occa- sionally to gpod advantage and won the fight by clean, clever work. The men were the.stars of a six« bout show under the auspices of the Bay City Club and Mechanics’ Pavilion Annex was well filled. Long was in good shape, much better in fact than most of his admirers anticipated. He commenced in the first round by going in with a rush and bringing his left up. Moreno was powerless to stop the | rush and Long kept landing time after time in this manner. The second round brought about no change, Long holding his lead arid jabbing. Moreno at every opportunity. Moreno’s left eye was closed early Burt beat A. Cant by 2 up and 1 to | play, and Walter J. Travis beat Robb | by one hole. Byers beat Asa Petq, 4 up and 2 to| play. Travis’ opponent in the second round | was James Robb of Glasgow, ‘twice | runner up of the championship, and the | American’s win was considered one of the finest performances of the day. At the turn Travis led by two up, which | he increased, but he lost his advantage l at the twelfth. and fourteenth holes. | Travis reached the home green with one and halved the last hole. - Miller and Hutchinson played a close | match, which they carried to the home ‘ green. In the third round Travig will meet | R. Graham Murray, son of the Secre- | | tary for Scotland, and Byers will meet | J. Williamson. The American method of negotiating | | stymies by knocking an opponent's | ball beyond while your own is dribbled into the hole was a revelation to the Britishers. —_——— LANGDON WILL REVISE NIGHT SCHOOL COURSE Last of Conferences With Teachers Results in Decision to Drop Or- | namental Branches. The last of a series ‘welve con- ferences by Superintendent Langdon and his deputies with teachers from | the public schools regarding the re- | vision -of the courses of study .was held yesterday afternoon. The teach- | ers in the night schools were present | and the question considered was the | simplification of the °*night school course. This is tn line with the undertaking to simplify all the public school courses. It is the intention of the Su- perintendent to make the night school | course more practical. To this end classes in literature, drawing and music will probably be dropped and the night school work fined to| “bread and butter” subjects, as was said yesterday by one of the deputy superintendents. The night schools | are called upon chiefly to furnish in- struction in elementary subjects, such as arithmetic, the great majority of the Pupils being young people who have to work for a living and need such training to fit them for .their employvments. They have no time for the non-essentials. Many of the pu- pils are foreigners who seek instruc- | tion in English. Hence the plan to; revise the course in the direction of | greater simplicity and larger attention to the rudimentary English branches. The conference yesterday determined only general lines of revision; and it will require some weeks to work out the details of the proposed changes in the night school course. — e SENTENCE UPON MURDERER SOEDER IS POSTPONED His Attorney Makes a Mouon for a} P New Trial, Which Will Be .

He had several affidavits to present. About ‘he last .day of the trial the District Attorney had introduced a witness who had | taken them by surprise and soma2thing had come to their knowledge regard- ing the testi of that witne<s that would be supported by affidavits. The Judge said -he would givs a rea- sonable time for the presentation of the affidavits, and continued the case till Friday morning. Meantime he in- structed Salomon to submit his af- fidavits to the District Attorney to- morrow afternoon so that coynter af- fidavits could be prepared in readi- ness for the argument on ths motion on Fi’day. |and Chief Wittman to dis in the round by a left hook. This bothered him and Long took advantage of this fact. Moreno started to rush in the third, but he could net land an | effective punch. The Yourth was the | fastest round of the night, and In every mix-up Long triumphed. ° Jack O’'Brien, the South Side wal- loper, took Abe Label’s measure in a hurricape four-round mill. * O'Brien’s left bothered Label and for three rounds he had the fight all to himself.

Judge Cook rendertd his decision | yesterday on the motion made on be- half of Pelice Commiissioner Hutton solve the or- der restraining the police from serv- ing the forty-two.warrants obtained from Police- Judge Cabaniss for the arrest of inmates of the premisds at 1129 Dupont street. The Judge de- nied the motion. The respondents, he said, had made three points. One was that Hutt not being a party to the suit.. the ccurt had no jurisdiction over him, but he had already decided against that cou- tention. Another was that as au ap- peal had been taken to the Suprema Court against the permanent injunc- tion, the court had no right to issue the restraining order. The Judge held that this contention tvas ridiculous, as. in that event he would have no power to cite any one for contempt. The third was that the warrants were valid, but he held that they were not valid, as the person was not described in accordance with the constitution. If an entry had been made to the premises on the warrants there would hate been an act of contempt of court. Later Attorney George D. Collins applied to Judge Cabaniss for war= rants for the arrest of the officers: wha had been arresting inmates of tha premises, but the Judge did not i - them. He, however, warned Captaix Duke against making any further are rests. - S e BUSH BROTHERS NEED C NOT REMOVE STAIRCASH Mayor Withdraws Veto of Resolution Directing City Attorney tb Dis- miss Bush Bros. will not be required tq_ remove the staircase projecting eight« een inches in front of their property at Eddy and Franklin streets after all; Mayor Schmitz, late last Friday, prae pared his veto of the resolution pass+ ed by the Board of ‘Supervisors directe ing the City Attorney to dismiss the suit of the city to compel the removal of the staircase, but at the last rhow ment changed. his mind and withdrew from his intention to flla the veto mes< sage. The Mayor decided that no harny would be done if he allowed the res- olution to become a law without his signature, as the charter provides, in view of the fact that the Supervisors in 1900 had granted a permit for the encroachment. So under the terms of the bill the City Attorney may con- sent to the dismissal of the. proceed- ings and. the staircase will be nllowed to remain. po I G Keep telling a boy that he will never -mm:nt to anything, and he generally won't.
