Little Rock, June 12-(Special)- 1.-The Barons had an easy time today with Quick pitcher Little Rock secured a day or two since from Omaha, and won the second game of the series in jig time by score of IS to 9.
 While Quick's pitching was bad enough the support given him by his team mates had much to do with the big score run up by the visitors. It was not Quick's pitch ing nor the hitting of the visitors that attracted attention.
 The calcium stunt was a rough and tumble fight between Catcher Anderson of Little Rock and Umpire Buckley during the third inning. With Sallee up in the second inning, after two strikes, the un- pire called one that nearly split the plate a ball, and Anderson walked to the field to enter 6 protest. He was waved back by Buckley and upon his refusal to leave was ordered out of the game. He there upon attacked the umpire, and after two or three llcks had been exchanged the umpire was foored and Anderson was hauled away by the players.
 f7TtSlutllL hdNtHduBH, NHO fltWSo tic game from the grand stand. immediately suspended Anderson indefinitely. He was afterwards arrested on a charge of as- sault and battery and taken before a justice of the peace, who released him on $3O0 bond and set his hearing for Fri day morning. President Kavanaugh says that he will appear against Anderson if no one else does.
 ''I intend to do my duty as president of the league said MT. Kavanaugh. Tt was most disgraceful proceeding and do not intend to stand for it.
 Scored All Through the Game.
 The Barons got off running and kept the score making up throughout the game. In the first Montgomery singled and C. Smith walked. and both scored on a wild pitch by Quick. the ball going through the netting under the grand stand. In the second Garvin singled and scored on Sal lees ripple, Sallee scoring on a hit by Montgomery. Three errors in the fourth gave the Barons a tally without a hit. The fire works came in the eighth, how ever, when three singles. a pair of two DdBbcis diu tiippio, diueN Uy hH eTrOT, gave the visitors seven runs. The final score was made in the ninth by Sallee. who layed out a three-bagger and scored on Montgomery's long fly and out to right.
 Little Rocks pair of runs were made in the sixth. After Noblet had struck out Quick singled and Drennen walked, and both tallied on DeArmnnd's two bagger.

WILL DOUBLE ASSESSMENT.
Polk County Valuation VIII Jump
From -Four to Eight Millions.

The Independence West Side En-
terprise says of the increase in prop
erty values to be made in Polk coun-
ty this year:
Assessor Graves will call all his
deputies in next week, preparatory to
beginning the 1906 assessment. There
are important instructions to be given
the field deputies this year, for it is
the purpose to practically double the
valuation this year. That is, where
the gross valuation last year was S4,-
3S9,420, it will this year be $4,000, 900
to 100000.
There is nothing to be saved by
keeping the assessed valuation down
under the present law since the state
taxes are based on the county ex-
penditure of the past five years.
Then, too, Polk county would appear
in bad light not to raise this year
since all adjoining counties and in
fact all the Willamette valley coun-
ties are doubling this year.
This action was decided on by the
assessors at a meeting in Portland
during the Lewis and Clark fair. To
make sure that the assessors of all
adjoining counties mean to follow
out the agreement, Assessor Graves
has communicated with them again
and learned that they will.
The valuations will therefore be
increased 100 per cent in Polk county.
This, of course, does not mean that
taxation will be increased, for the
levy should decrease in proportion to
the increase of the valuation.

CHINESE GO EAST.
Imperial Party Finishes Its Visit on
Pacific Coast.

Seattle, March 5.-The imperial
Chinese commission is no longer in
Seattle. The party of AZ, including
the Chinese vice-consul of San Fran
cisco. and under the direction of S.
Gardner Yerkes, of the Great North
ern road. left at s o'clock this morn
ing on the Oriental limited.
The party will be divided at st.
Paul. A number of the attaches will
go over one route to Niagara Falls,
while the prince and his immediate
advisors will take another route for
Washington, d. c., where they will
confer with the Chinese minister. 1t
is not known for what purpose the
conference is to be held, but it is
surmised that the discussion which
shall take place between the imperial
commission and the minister to the
United States will be on official busi-
ness.
Those of the secretaries who are
able to understand and read English
have read with great interest the
press reports of the conflicts which
have arisen in China of late. But they
are unable to talk about the matter,
owing to the orders they have receiv-
ed from the royal government, which
forbids them giving out any informa-
ton regarding the uprisings.
The fact that the Pacific Coast
Chinese have financially assisted the
merchants of China in carrying out
their boycott against American goods
is not denied by local Chinese who
themselves claim to have sent money
to the boycotters, but they now ex-
press a feeling that they have urged
on a reign of terror in the flowery
kingdom which the local Chinese or
the governors of China cannot wipe
out.

HEADED FOR THE ARCTIC.
Danish Explorer Will Soon Start From
San Francisco.

San Francisco, Cal, March 5.-Cap-
is expected here today or tomorrow to
make the final preparations for the
Arctic expedition, which will start
from here soon under his direction.
The expedition will go to the Banks
Land under the joint auspices of the
Royal Geographical society of Lon
don and the American Geographical
society. The American society gave
the explorer money to purchase a
vessel on the Pacific coast. There
will be II or IL men in the expedi-
ton six of whom will man the ves-
sci. The others will go down the
Mackenzie river this summer and
meet Captain Mikkelsen at the Mac
kenzie delta on the Arctic coast.
The chief object of the expedition
is to explore that part of the Arctic
Ocean to the west of Banks Land.
known as Beaufort sea. A sledge
journey over the frozen water will be
undertaken with the idea of discover
ing the unknown islands that are sup
posed to exist there. The theory is
based on the movements of the cur
rents.
Captain Mikkelsen expects to be
settled at his Banks Land base by the
beginning of the next early Arctic
winter. Then he will establish a sup
ply depot to the north of this, from
which he will start out on his final
dash for the pole early in the spring
of 1908. He expects to accomplish
a large amount of valuable scientific
work. This will include observations
