Oregon Agricultural COLLEGE.

CORVALLIS June S.-A much hap
pier crowd of college students could
scarce be found than those Of the o.
A. G. at the present time. The proud
possessors of the championship cup,
and the honor Of being the leading
athletics of the state is enough to
make the many "blue. coats" of the
"Hayseed College" the most Joyful
congregation of young men that can
be found in Oregon. Saturday bright
and early, the members Of the athlecic
team together with many scores Of
other students and citizens boarded
the steamer for the grand old Capital
City, the scene Of the great and much
talked of field-meet. Just twenty
four hours later the same crowd of
people were again back at Corallis
wharf. 1t was not the quiet, sleepy
looking crowd that came up from
Salem one year ago, but shouting,
hilarious and jolly, goodnatured col
lection of people, shouting loudly.

beautiful silver cup that had by many
hard days of training been grasped

thanked the students most heartily
for the good work they had done, as

Thursday evening reception is to

Ed Weeks oficiated for the opposition
For the first fight Kansas showed
4-10 dominick and Odessa, a brown
benny of the same weight. The Kan
sas bird opened hostilities with rush
and soon had the Odessa chicken grog-
gy. In the second round Kansas land
ed in the Fitzsimmons style and cop
pered the money.
Odessa brought out a benny So, and
Kansas a. blue red for the second mill
The Kansas cock was the fastest mover
and won the purse after ten minutes OF
hard work.
In the third battle SIS were pitted.
They were both dead games and the
Odessa bird was the best leg hitter At
the end of a contest lasting nearly half
an hour Odessa was awarded the de-
cree.
The fourth contest brought out a
savage looking blue-red, 5-S. on the part
of Kansas, and a dark-red of the same
weight from Odessa. The fight was
the Kansas chick gated Odessa through
the lung and won.
Odessa showed pumpkin-red in the
fifth and Kansas a black racer. They
weighed SIP. The Kansas bird was cut
down on the first fly, but after three
rounds he landed a blow in a vital spot
on a chance scuffle, and came out vic
tor.
The Kansas corner was defended by a
5-14 race horse in the sixth. Odes-
sa had a dominick benny of the same
weight The fight was long and slow.
The Kansas cock finally made killing
by a lung thrust, and the Odessa bird
was taken from the pit dead.
In the seventh and last Kansas show
ed up with a 6-pound savage race
horse and Odessa placed a dOmin!ck.
The big ones were game, and Kansas
secured the cash after a Commute fight

sport was ended by shaking the bag
for battle royal with six cocks in the
pit.

MRS. PoRTER's DIAMONDS.
Wife of the Presidents Secretary
Makes a Ludicrous Mis- take.

Washington, March 1e.-When Mrs. J.
Addison Porter, wife of the secretary
TO the president, returned to the Eb-
bitt House with her husband last night
after attending a reception, she looked
in her trunk, and to her amazement
discovered that her diamonds were mis-
sing. The proprietor of the hotel was
at once called, and informed of the loss.
On learning that the door of the room
had been found hooked by the Porters
on their return he insisted that there
must be some mistake, but Mrs. Por-
ter would not have it any other way;
she knew that she had been robbed,
and demanded that the police be sent
for at once. Inspector Hollinberger
came to the hotel with one of his men,
and on being furnished with a descrip-
ton of the jewels he promised to have
a thorough search of the pawn shops of
the city made the next day. An hour
or so later a telephone message was re-
ceived at police headquarters that Mrs.
Porter had remembered having taken
the jewels out of the trunk and hidden
them in what she supposed would be a
safer place, and there she found them
safe when the recollection of the change
she had made came back to her.
