The Wheat Not Scalded,
ColfaY Gazatfo

The reports of scalded wheat in the western
part of the county seem to have been founded
on fancy after all Farmers from those regions
say that the damage is not nearly so great as
they first thought, and that grain there is now
heading out very lavorably. J. H. Belliuger, to
satisfy himself, made a trip Wednesday to some
of his crops on Alkali, twenty miles southwest
OF Colfax. He says that the spring wheat is not
a particle damaged, though the yield of fall
grain will probably be Is per cent less than was
expected a month ago when prospects were SO
bright. The two days OF hot weather that sue
ceeded the cold rains of spring brought such a
sudden change as to wilt the grain. At first ap-
pearance the outlook changed within the short
space of forty eight hours from one of unusual
abundance to a gloomy famine. Farmers who
thought they would harvest a fortune
began to drop their heads, and their
spirits fell about 400 degrees. Reports began to
fly around that crops were scalded to death, not
from excessive heat, for the thermometer regis
tered only 81 to IS degrees. but from sudden and
excessive change, going in almosta leap from a
place near freezing point to the boiling spot.
But the hot weather was soon over, the grain got
acclimated, began to revive, and now looks as
fresh as a college graduate. 1t turns ont that
only the leaves were burned. The stalks are all
right, so the heads are able to mature without
any trouble. Elsewhere than in the western
part, the outlook is as good as at any other time.
The average yield is expected to go no less than
thirty-fve bushels per acre. Many fields, as
few small patches will no doubt reach the
eighty bushel mark. Even where the scalds
are the worst, on south hill points, farmers say
the yield will be good for fifteen or twenty
bushels. On north slopes there is no danger
whatever.

hands. MeAuline uppercut once, but he had
apparently lost all idea of guarding himself or
making an aggressive fight.
Fourteenth round-Mac made a quick lead,
but Goddard counte:ed with his left on the jaw,
staggering him. Mac clinched him about the
neck and God lard smashed him on the ribs.
Inc Australian banged him from corner to post,
sending him through the ropes. McAulife was
DOWN several seconds, and rose with his nose
bleeding. Goddard crowded him and drew
blood from his mouth. This looked 70 be the
end of McAulife.
Fifteenth round-Macw was groggy in his own
corner. Goddard sent him TO mis- knees with q
rlght-hander and smashed him abou. the head
with both hands rs he rose near the other corner.
McAuliifs threw in three good left stops, but
GODDARD dropped him to his knees with q right.
McAulife remained on his hands and knees with
MS head bent down nine seconds, and then he
rose heiplessly. Goddard, who had gone to his
corner, rushed on him, and after a couple of
blows sent him down near the ropes, where he
was counted out Goddard was borne 10 his
chair by his seconds amid the cheers Of the
spectators.
McAuliffee was seen In his dressing-room where
he was found much respondent. Il have moth

the result. II don't know what was the matter

tin stating that McAuliffe had reduced his
weight during training over thirty pounds. Joe
bore little trace of the battle, save a pulled face
and a few scratches on the body. His seconds
com blamed OF the referees method in allowing
pun:hing during clinches, but there was appar-
emily no ground therefor. Goddard was reticeut
concerning the battle, and hurried from the hall
as quickly as possible. He had a lump the sizs
OF an egg under his left eye, but otherwise was
unmarked.
Joseph Goddard, champion of the Barrier
Reef, was born in New South Wales twenty-nine
years ago. He stands six feet in his stockings,
weighs 100 pounds or less, and is magnifeertly
built. He first gained worldwide renOwn by de-
feating Joe Choynski in $50. He whipped
Choynski in 1891, and spared eight rounds with
Peter Jackson and made a good showing, owing
to Peter being out of condition. Goddard is
still a total stranger to defeat, and is conse-
QuentIy fit to be matched against Jackson. Fol-
lowing is the record OF Goddard's battles-all
victories:

pivot blow before the gong sounded,
Eighth God upper.cut McAulife
alter some %iruitless swings, and long range
sparring followed. Goddard countered hard
with his lett on Joe's shoulder, drawing blood.
McAulit'e got in a good right drive in the face
as the gong sounded.
Ninth round-McAuliffe had proved some
thing of 6 disappointment to his supporters.
while Goddard's friends were correspondingly
elated. The men got to close work, Goddard
doing more forcible work and putting in a
couple of telling righ,-handers OH the ear and
wind. Goddard punched Joe in the stomach
with his lett, and two right upper-cuts followed.
Tenth round-Bets had been made that the
hight would not last over ten rounds. Goddard
forced Mac against the roper, swinging his
right on the jaw. Mac seemed Hurried, and the
Australian rushed him. Goddard struck the
San Franciscan hard on the back and on the
cheek bone, and MeAuliffs countered on the
lace. Both men missed a number of leads.
Eleventh r~ound-Goddard forced McAuliffe
from corner to corner, making desperate drives
for the head. Macs temper was aroused, and
he punched the Australian hard on the chest.
Twelfth r~ound-Goddard came up evidently
bent on finishing the San Franciscan, and
banged him about the ring with both hands.
McAuiiife made more use of his left, and
stopped several desperate let's with jabs on the
mouth. Goddard crowded him TO the ropes,
and Mac resorted to clinching to save himself.
Thirteenth round-Goddard banged McAulife
about the ring. The Mission Boy grabbed him
by the meek in a bear-llke hug lasting two Sec
onds. Goddard countered forcibly with both

RECORDS OF THE LEAGUES.

1t could hardly be called a ball game. yester-
days exhibition al Madison street park, but it
counted as a victory for Portland in the per-
%centages. In the first place good playing was
rendered impossible by the drizz.e of rain that
set in shortly after Umpire knight put the play
ers to work. There was not enough water to
cause the play to stop, but it was sufficient to
put a thin coating OF sticky mud over the dia-
moud and to make the grassy outheld harder to
stand on than the waxed floor of the ball room.
So the ball flew around at a lively rate and
often at random, while the players at times did
some splendid feats of ground and lofty tumb-
ling in endeavoring to handle it. Good playing
was the exception, and there was little work to
call forth applause. Gil Hatfield came in for
the best share OF it by spelling a base hit close
to second base, while Abner Powell cleverly
picked a fly off the left field fence.
Portland, as usual, piled up the biggest num-
Der OF errors, but, as usual, managed to win.
They seemed to have the superior faculty of
hitting the ball into the wettest places just at
the right time. and OF getting the greatest posi-
bic results from it. They were given valuable
assistance in bringing about the end by Tom
Parrot, who essayed to do the twirIing for Seat
tie. Yesterday was certainly not Toms day.
He evidently did not feel in the humor TO pitch,
and he certainly did nothing out of accord with
his humor. Barnes sluggers took to his balls
kindly from the start, even before the rain
came to render good handling of the ball out of
the question. That the lanky pitcher did not
take his medicine gracefully was evidenced by
his subsequent conduct. He didn't appear to
care a ~picayune whether his team won or not,
and almost drove his catcher into a fit by totally
ignoring his signs. When Earle planted him
self for a slow curve a swift inshoot would gem
orally come in and all but take him of his feet.
With such an example the home team fell
into line with it, and with no more spirit than
they put into it the national game would soon
go to the dominion bOw-wows from lack of
ginger. 1t was not until the sixth inning that
they ventured to give any demonstration that
they were in the game at all. Then with the
ball getting water-soaked aud unsuitable to
handle with anything but a bat, they took a
brace and began pelting horsehide at a lively
rate for a while. Although it didn't win the
game it was enough to get John S. Barnes to
hitching uneasily on the bench, and at the
opening of the seventh Willie Mains succeeded
McNabbi in the box. The Seattle batters gave
him quite a warm opening, but they were never
in any very great danger OF wiping out Port
lands lead.
The visitors seemed to win their game by
coming to the scratch just when it was needed.
They made errors in abundance, but this could
not outweigh their other work. They cracked
away at the ball with n vengeance, howled on

place, was crowded to an extent never before
seen on a similar occasion, and fully 5000 per-

liminary bouts preceded the principal event.

the spectators Kissed. for they thought Goddard
was trying to kick him. Three hot rallies near

opponent with both hands, while Goddard re.
sorted to rib punching.

IRON TROUBLE NOT SO SERIOUS.

PITTsBURG, June 3O.-The scales under which
the member of the A~malgamated Association
have been working for the past year expires at
midnight, with a condition of affairs confront
ing both sides that has not occurred in years.
No efforts to reconcile the differ.
ence between the manufacturers and men
will be visible for some time. A major
ity of the mills will shut down
for repairs, and two weeks will elapse before
any attempt to operations will be
made. The iron manufacturer late tonight re
quested a conference with the scale committee
of the Amalgamated Association. 1t will be-
held tomorrow. The action is regarded as favor
able to a settlement.
Three thousand men at the Homestead Works
were idle today and they invited the other de-
partments to join them. The firm forestalled
the men and discharged all their employees at
midnight tonight. and thus have cleverly
forced all the men by making it q lockout in
stead of a strike. The streets were crowded.,
but everything was quiet. The sheet iron
manufacturers and the Amalgamated Associa-
ton have settled their differences.

Yellow Wheat.
Wilbur Regiater


Mr.. F. II. Miller and Charles Smith, of sher-
man, called at the Register office last Monday to
speak a word about crops. Both gentlemen
claim that a bountiful harvest is now moro
than a probability, barring hail storms. SPUR.
rels are pretty well under control and although
a great lot OF money has been spent in fighting
them, it is thought it viii be an easy matter to
handle them hereafter. Mr.. Miller says that so
far as he has been able to learn there are no
wire worms working on the wheat in this part
part of the country, but that the yellow wheat
is caused by too much moisture and not enough
sunshine. The last few days of warm weather
has given the yellow grain a good healthy color
and had the wire worms been at work this
would not have been the case. A great many
adopt this theory, which is probably correct.
