 Manager Humphrey of New Lons don, has given the local fans some- thing to talk about by announcing that his hired men will report b New London on April IA. This will enable them to begin work on Mous day. April 15. The New London team has been signed for the last six weeks and no further effort will be made to get players. unless the manager sees some good man ho wants to corral.
 Buck Freeman of the Bostoo Puritans, who is living in Wilkes- barre. has decided to sign the con- tract submitted to him for 1907 by President John 1. Taylor. He will play either first base or right field during the season. Freeman is in good condition. having taken regu- lar exercise in gymnasium throughout the winter.
 Mike Donlin, the New York Giant outfielder. will be on the stage next winter with his wife, Mabel Hite, ia vaudeville. George Conan, the au- thor-actor, has agreed to write . sketch for the pair. Mike ought to be a success on the stage on account of his popularity on the ball field.

O'BRIEN AND CANS.

New York, Feb 1.--There are many indications that Joe Cans. the light weight champion, and Jack OBrien, the Philadelphia middleweight, will be matched to fight to finish. The obstacle now in the way of signing ar ticles is the weighing-in time and the weight. Cans is willing enough to make the match, but he insists upon OBrien weighing in at 154 pounds at the ringside.
 OBrien's answer to Cans Is: "rD fight you, but want a clause incor- porated in the articles of agreement permitting me to weigh in at 154 pounds six hours before we enter the ring"
 J. E. Riley, fanager of the Tonapah Athletic club of Tonapah, Nevada, says he will offer a purse of S45,OOO for the contest. Riley wants the fight to take place on July 4. It is likely that O'Brien and Cans compromise on clause to the effect that both men weigh in at 14 pounds three hours before the battle.

JEFF DOHERTY WHIPPED.

Boston. Feb 1.-Jimmy Gardner met Jeff Doherty in a bout scheduled for ten rounds at Lowell last Tues day evening. It did not go the limit. as Doherty got an awful walloping. and in the third round the referee put a stop to the slaughter by send ing both men to their corners and awarding the victory to Gardner.
 The latter was in splendid condi- tion. and from the gong he went af- ter his man. His jabs and smashes were enough to put any man of his size away. but Doherty gamely stuck to his task and wanted to go just a few more rounds. Gardner. not the least bit ruined by the first two rounds. would willingly have accom- moiated him. but the fight managers decided not to take any risks on a probable fatality. and consequently brought the mill to an end before the third round had progressed a minute.

The passing of the $1,000 ,000 race track at Salem, N. H., which was a forcgone conclusion last summer, is emphasized by the fact that the rail- road spur from the Boston and Maine road is being torn up. The men who lost their money in this wildcat ven- ture are inclined to the belief that they were led to an intentional slaughter. It will be many years, therefore, before New England is again invaded by race track pro- moters.

Several big race track plungers were playing the New Orleans horses in an uptown brokers office on Tues day when theatrical man who likes to lay favorite now and then wan dered in. Grace George was the choice in the race about to be run and she was quoted at to 10.
 .I'll lay 13 to 10 against her!" de- clared the theatrical man. with a flourish. Does anybody care to bet mel"
 In jiffy two of the operators nailed him for $500 wagers and then others took a crack at the liberal price. When Grace George won the theatrical man sat down at table in brown study. He looked as if he had lost his last friend on earth. Just then we'll known Chicago broker raised q laugh with the re- mark: Look at the dead goose and not shot fired!"
 The theatrical bookrlaker then fled, after settling for nearly $7,OOO, the result of few minutes fun.

She carried 153 pounds and ran second to Mighty Ocean. 4-year-old with 143 on his back. The distance was mile and half. Few believe that Mir Croker will send the mare to America, as her entry here is re- ga,ded solely as compliment.

Although nearly 2,501 2-year-olds have already been named in accord ance with the requirements of the Jockey club, there are still more than l,oO0 to be named before the first day of March. After that for each omission the Jockey club will collect a penalty of $50. In spite of long lists of names that are daily submit ted to the Jockey club officials at the Windsor Arcade, many are rejected because of duplication, awkward spelling or difficult pronunciation. After an owner has been notified that his names have been rejected he gen. erally notifies the registrar to select a name himself. which is readily done. As 2 rule little originality is shown in the selection of names, but James R. Keene, August Belmont, Harry Payne Whitney, James B. Haggin and others who breed their own horses usually exercise much care in that respect.

The Anti-Lobby bill was signed
by the governor and went into effect
Saturday, and the anti-pass bill
went into effect Monday. The 2
cent a mile rate bill was killed in
the house Friday by a vote of A to
3S. There are numerous bills
pending affecting the railroads, but
the action of the legislature so far
has been all that the railroad com
panies could desire. The passage
OF the anti pass bill will certainly
increase the revenue of the railroad
companies, while the rate bill, de-
signed to offer some relief to the
public, was killed. If the same
kindly disposition toward the rail
roads is manifest during the re-
mainder of the session the privilege
of lobbying will not be missed
by the railroad companies.

The apparent disposition of the
present legislature to sit down hard
on the newspapers is arousing
some talk of realization among the
publishers. They recall that
heretofore the publishers have
been liberal in giving their space to
the advancement of public institn-
tions, fair associations, and other
organizations of a public character,
but suggest that it might be good
policy in future to publish such
things at so much per. It is hard
ly likely that there will beany such
retaliation practiced, but it is bare
ly possible that the names of a few
ambitious politicians will be filed
away for future reference.

Attorney General Clark holds
that the herd law, passed some
years ago to apply to the territory
west of the Missouri river, applies
just as we'll to the portion
east of the river. In other words
that law can not be passed to eff
feet one portion Of the state and
not another, unless the act provides
that each county may either adopt
or reject it. The ruling seems to
contain a great deal Of common
sense, and if it is true the legisla-
ture should lose no time in repeal
ing the herd law.

The first half of the legislative
session was completed last Friday,
and measured by the bills passed
it was not very eventful, though OF
course much of the work has been
done in the committees, preparing
bills for future action. The work
completed consists of the passage
of three bills and five joint resolu-
tion. The three bills were: In
creasing the fees of town officers
Making valid orders OF the railway

To Raise Fruit In Umatilla County.

A Hood River paper announces that
an apple raiser Of that valley has just
received an order for twenty boxes Of
SpitzenbergI and Newtowns to be
shipped to Shanghai, China. They
will go by way of Seattle.
The same grower has recently re-
ceived an order from firm in Rotter-
dam Tor the entire crop of his orchard
"at any reasonable price," no special
figure being mentioned
These instances of foreign demand
for Oregon apples serve to show the
great value the industry has become
to Oregon and the Importance of ex-
lending 1t to every part of the state.
A year ago the Tribune began agi'
tatiug the necessity of giving more at
tention to the raising of apples in
Umatilla county, contending that we
have thousands of acres of good fruit
lands. now practically idle, that are
really as well a'lapted to apple grow
ing as the Hood River country, and 1t
is gratifying to see the suggestion
growing in popular favor.
Umtatilla county should have a
greater diversity of products, smaller
farms, more people, and the way to
get them is to talk the matter over
and set forth its great natural re.
sources. 1t is an empire within itself
and can produce in splendid quantity
and quality all the staple articles oil
the northwest. And let us proclaim
the fact from our housetops incessant-
ly until our population shalt be four
times its present figure. -Pendleton
