JAY GOULD IS
A GOOD SPORT
Son of Famous FinanCier Has
Developed Into Expert TeI.-
MS Player.

The following Is what Eustace Miles
court tennis champion of England. has to
say Of George Gould in the London Mail:
Years ago Mr.. George Gould determined
that his sons should be good sportsmen
He gave them every opportunity, and
they took fun advantage Mr. jay
Gould today is a good sportsman-very
Keen on winning and very crafty; but, on
the other hand, thoroughly gOOd-tem-
pered and strictly honorable. There is
about him none of the pettiness, none of
the meanness that too often disgrace
competitive sport.
In his calmness, in his absence of
swagger, he is utterly unlike a boy
One can scarcely imagine so successful
an athlete, the best tennis player of his
age who has ever lived and the son of
so rich a father. so unaffected. so candid
and fair in his estimate of himself His
freedom from the faults of an averag e
schoolboy is almost appalling.
A Relentless Machine.
Playing against him is like playing
against a relentless machine Last year
he knew nearly all the finesse Of tennis:
this year l expect he knows quite all that
need be known. He has evidently thought
out the game and IT'S possibilities, and
has evolved a style that suits his special
physique.
His strength lies chiefly in his service.
The overhead reverse-twist railroad"
service is somewhat like the American
lawn tennis service. 1t is hard to play
well against, and, at least in tennis, goes
far toward spelling utterly the fine style
of the old-fashiOned jen de paume. But
it pays, and there is no rule against it
any more than there is against ugly yet
useful houses or against advertisements
in country scenery.
His return is also very effective. owing
to his activity and his Judgment, Last
year his stroke was not very severe but
it was very safe and sure.
Has Two Strokes Perfect.
Two strokes he has developed almost to
perfection. They both belong To the TECH
nicalities of the game that are Hebrew
to the uninitiated. He knows how 20
keep to, or get back to, the service side
of the court; and he is most skiIful in
hitting into the winning gallery
doubt if he has any really weak point
at all. All that l regret is that [ have so
much work of various kinds. that l could
not play more than once a week and
though / feel in excellent condition
could not get into practice and have my
eye in" by the time that l should be
obliged to meet the winner. l wish |
could have offered Mr.. Jay Gould his re-
venge. as he is an ideal opponent to be
beaten or to beat. I look forward to
meeting him next year.

BATTLE i.
ROYAL
TODAY
Bill TO Confine County Judge
10 His Probate Duties

There was a battle royal on the
aoor of the house this afternoon
when Driscoll's bill, providing for
the creation of the port of Column
hia at the mouth of the Columbia
river came up for consideration at 2
o'clock under special order. The
Multnomah county delegation is a
unit in favor of the passage of the
hill. but the Clatsop and Columbia
delegates are bitterly opposed to 1t,
and there was some pretty strong
language used in the meeting of the
delegations at o'clock this after
noon room No. 5, on the lower floor
The purpose of the bill is to regu-
late the present prohibitive pilot
charges that are being demanded at
the mouth of the Columbia river.
Conferred on Expenses"
When the general appropriation
bill came back to the house from the
senate IL was found that all of the
reductions in travelling expenses of
the different state officials, and some
of the allowances for additional cler-
ical assistance and increase in wages,
made by the house, had been put
back to the former figures, and the
house refused to concur in several
changes, but II was soon discovered
that mistakes had evidently been
made in some of the items of the bill
and a committee composed of Camp
bell, Vawter and Jackson was APP
pointed to check the items over with
the chief clerk OF the senate and re-
port back to the house.
Letting Out County Judge.
If house bill 43S, which was passed
by the house last night, becomes a
law, the political prestige of County
Judge Webster, of Multnomah, will
be brought to an abrupt termination
and his official powers curtailed to
the simplest transaction of probate
matters which come before his court.
This bill provides for the election of
an additional county commissioner,
and presribes the duties of that body
entirely relieving the county Judge
of the duties and responsibilities
which devolve upon him as chief off,
Ger of the commissioners court, and
relegate him to the lonesome and dis
NAL background.
This bill was introduced by Mr..
Beutgen, and IL was referred to the
Multnomah county delegation. which
took the matter up last evening and
passed upon II and reported favor
ably during last evenings session. II
then came up for final passage and
went through without 0)position.
During the discussion OF the bill in
the committee II developed that
there was strong political feeling
between some of the members of the
delegation and the judge, and the
purpose was TO compel the Judge. who
has bean in the habit OF taking long
junketing trips and allowing probate
matters and county business to pile
upon his desk, and II is proposed to
relieve the judge of these responsi-
bilities, which take him out OF the
county so often, and give him time
to attend to matter probate, which
do not rnnnlrn his Travelling nhnnt
