BERGER DEVELOPS SPEED
WITH THE BOXING GLOVES
Cuts Out the Severe Work on the
Road. Which Most Fighters
Think Necessary

Coast champion Sam Berger and
Middle West Champion Bill Richards
will settle a dispute as to which is the
best heavyweight boxer before the
San Francisco Athletic Club at Wood
wards Pavilion on Wednesday even
ing. Richards, who halls from Chi
cago, on account of his size, strength
and skill, has made those who were Of
the opinion that Berger was the best
of all the heavies sit up and take no
tice.
Even a bad judge of fighters would
be quick to notice that the 210-pound
Chicagoan has style far above the
average heavyweight. He handles his
immense bulk with skill born Of long
experience. He is we'll educated and
a good conversationist, though never
bcastful. His trainer, Dick Green, Is
so confident of Richards ability to
beat Berger that he is risking the
chance of travelling fourth-class back
TO Chicago, which means walking the
ties.
Berger will be in rare condition
WHEN the two enter the ring and will
be faster and more confident than ever
before. He has been training along
lines that tend to develop speed, de-
voting most of his time to sparring,
having eliminated the heavy road
work.

OUTDOOR LIFE
TO Be SHOWN
Wide Range Which Coming
Forest, Fish and Game
Exhibition Will Assume

The opening night of the Forest,
Fish and Game Association Exhibi-
ton on the 31st inst. will be a gala
affair. 1t is the intention to make it
complimentary social evening and
reception night, for which no tickets
will be sold. Directors, stockholders
and shareholders will have the distri-
button of tickets in hand, and spe-
cial invitation will be extended to such
of the smart set as are interested in
the movement for which the associa-
ton is sponsor--to bring out the
touch of nature that makes the whole
world kin. Just as the evergreen
mountains and valleys of California
are breaking out in their greatest
beauty, many of the stately trees and
dwarfed shrubs will be brought into
Mechanics Pavilion. Pine needles
will litter the floor: country lanes
will be reproduced; patches of rus
tic fences will carry out the general
effect; the odor of wildf1owers will
fill the air.
Scattered through this profusion of
natures endowments will be found
exhibits of a sort that will be educa-
tional without being dull. Charity is
to benefit by the labor of band of
energetic nature enthusiasts, and the
whole community must reap a harvest
of moral and mental instruction SINH
lar affairs have been a great success
in Eastern cities under the guise of
sportsmen's shows. The same idea
will be carried out here with a greater
dash of the nature element because
the natural advantages are so close at
hand and so easy of access
Although the setting will be so elab-
crate and the whole effect so entran-
cling, the association has not lost
track of the fact that the entertain
ment must also be diverting. A band
of thirty-five pieces under the lead
ership of DR.. Stewart and Theodore
Vogt will render appropriate concerts
both afternoon and evening during the
two weeks. the exhibition will run.
An art gallery of generous propor-
tions will contain the best work of
California artists on subjects only per-
tanning to the general scheme. 1t will
be a feature in itself. On the ath-
letic field will be constant amuse-
ment of a diversified character In a
portion of the gallery will be the only
departure from the idea of outdoor
life, and even that will conform as
nearly as possible with the plan-a
society midway without the features
that have brought odium on the word.
Under the guidance of Albert Van der
Naillen Jr. this little highway should
be attractive. In a word, the able
management is doing everything
within its power to create interest and
provide an exhibition that will be-
come permanent and will be looked
forward to from season to season as
it is in the Eastern cities.

HANDBALL PLAY
DRAWS APPLAUSE
Amateur Champion Dunno
With Hampton Defeats
Fitzgerald and Cory

What was pronounced the greatest
exhibition of handball ever seen in this
city was witnessed by big crowd yes
terday at the Olympic Club. James
Dunno Jr. and Al Hampton defeated
James Fitzgerald and Henry Cory
three out of five games. They did not
win the match. as they must win six
games in all. The match was played
for the benefit Of Mike Egan, the
worlds champion, who is i'll in Beau
mont, California.
There was a great crowd of hand
ball enthusiasts in the galleries and
they grew enthusiastic over the clever
playing Of the quartet. Cory proved
he could travel in fast company, as he
played q star game. His tossing and
all-rOund work was remarkably good.
Dunno and Hampton had hard work
taking the swift toss and the young
Olympic Club man was highly praised
for his efforts
The first game was won by F1tzger-
aid and Cory after hard struggle. The
men were fresh and warmed to their
work. Seemingly impossible plays
were made frequently. Dunno and
Hampton seemed to have the game
well in hand, but Cory began tossing
and Fitzgerald did some long-distance
killing. The latter team won out by
q 10 l9.
Fitzgerald had the second game won,
but either blew UP or tossed ii away,
and Dunno and Hampton won by a
score Of q TO Is.
The next game went to Dunno and
. Hampton. who played brilliantly. Fitz-
gerald was tired and Cory hurt his
thumb. thus making it hard for him to
toss as before. Dunne's overland
swipes and Hampton's splendid back
ing Up was a feature of this game.
Fitzgerald and Cory turned loose and
won the fourth game by a score Of 21
10 l3 Dunno and Hampton saved them
Eelves for the final game. They showed
good generalship by calling for a new
bail. The new ball was as hard as a
brick and as swift as G humming bird.
Both Hampton and Dunno began toss
ing on Fitzgerald. and although tired,
the eX-chempion played with skill The
rallies were long and fast and the four
men did their utmost to win the final
game. Victory came to Dunno and
Hampton after q hard struggle. Score,
Fl to l5.
Fitzgerald showed great skill in the
match, but was lsmentably out OF con-
oition Young Dunno proved a won
derfully clever two-handed player and
did much TO win for his side.
Preliminary to the big match James
Dunno Sr. and J. c. Nealon, two Of the
oldest handbaI players in the world.
entertained the spectators with an in
teresting exhibition. They were as
lively as schOolboys and were cheered
for their efforts. Scorer John Mallon
declared the match a draw.
On next Sunday Fitzgerald and Cory
viii again play Dunno and Hampton.
To win the match either side must cap
ture six out Of eleven games.

VIGILANCE FOILS PLANS
OF OREGON WRECKERS
| Several Attempts Are Made to Bring
About Disaster to Trains and
| Street Cars.

PORTLAND, Or, March 12-News
of a series of attempts to wreck trains
and electric cars near Oregon City was
telephoned from that place tonight.
1t was reported the attempt to derail
a Southern Pacific freight train had
been in measure successful, the
tender leaving the track. No one was
injured The freight, which was an
extra following the southbound pas
senger train for Southern Oregon and
California points, was approaching
Oregon City when it is reported to
have struck an obstruction.
About the same time, and almost
opposite the spot where the attempt
to wreck the freight train occurred. the
motorman on an Oregon water electric
line, which parallels the Southern Pa
cific tracks, discovered an obstruction
en- the track and bringing his car to
a sudden stop averted what might have
been a serious disaster An examina-
ton disclosed two heavy timbers across
the track. A short distance further on
another obstruction, consisting of three
timbers, was removed from the tracks
and still further on a third obstruction
was encountered and removed.

TO man and with everyone in his
place. Three of the Burlingame men
are accustomed to playing the posi-
ton of back. This was soon appar-
ent, as they did not engage the men
playing opposite them with the re-
quired skill.
Both teams were exceptionally well
mounted, their ponies playing the
game we'll and showing a lot of speed
and quality. Mr.. Mackey, who de-
serves all the credit for bringing over
the English team, rode three ponies
which fitted about the fields like
gray ghosts. Their sire, Grandee, a
thoroughbred, which was famous on
the track some years ago as mud
runner, transmitted speed and game
ness to them. Their gray color is
against them and they would never
win medal in a beauty show. They
were bred by Captain McKittrick of
bakersfield and were thoroughly
broken for polo by DIR. Boeseke. a
pony enthusiast of Santa Barbara.
The outcome of the game could be
readily forecast after the first period,
in which Menzies made three goals.
The visitors followed UP this advan-
tage in the second period, Prescott
scoring one goal and Mackey two.
De Crespigny added another goal in
the third. McCreery broke the ice
for the Burlingame men in this period
by scoring their first goal
In the fourth period Walter Hobart
scored two goals. These were quickly
offset, as both Prescott and Mackey
scored. The score board read 8 to 8
at the end of the period. Mackey
made the last goal for the visitors in
the fifth period. Walter Hobart
placed the ball between the posts in
the last period. When the umpire's
whistle sounded the score was 10 to 4.
Captain de Crespigny and Sir
George Prescott are members of the
Horse Guards Blue, the crack Eng
lish household cavalry regiment.
While they played a brilliant game
their work proved no more effective
than that of Mackey and Menzies.
who seldom missed a stroke at the
ball.
AS the players rode off the field
Walter Hobart called for three cheers
for the visitors. These were given
and then Captain de Crespigny called
for cheers for the Burlingames.
Despite the rain of the early morn
ing the field was both safe and fast
and a large gallery turned out to wit
ness the game. The teams lined up:

Special Dispatch to The Call.

GOLDENDALE. Wash, March H.
A preacher calling himself Rev. d. E.
Haywood was taken from the pulpit of
the Free Methodist Church here this
evening, escorted to the river by fifty
men and there treated to coat of tar
and feathers, after which he was told
to leave town for good.
1t is said that Haywood was formerly
Holy Roller and was once a den
tist in Portland. Several women who
have been attending his meetings in the
church are on the verge of insanity
through his wild exhortations, threats
and denunciations- Before the services
closed this evening ten young men,
masked. entered the church and seized
Haywood. Outside were forty more
men. He was given no opportunity to
explain matters and was ducked in the
river after the tar and feathers had
been applied.
