Sweet revenge did the locals have
on Huntington yesterday afternoon
for the defeat the Miamis administered
to them in the morning. The Quak-
ers brought their seige guns into &C
tion, probably in honor of the G. A. r..

hits for total of twenty bases. The
final score WAS 10 to 4.
Mr. Bauman is now busily engaged
in collecting home runs. Yesterday
afternoon he acquired two rare spec
linens. Both were inside the lot and
rolled nearly to the right field fence.
Jim Cameron also raped out a homer
to his favorite spot, left center. This
hit was. however, in the opinion Of
many of the fans only clean three
begger, claiming that Cameron was
caught at the plate. Jumps Fleming
could not see it thus and much chin
music on the part of the visitors en-
sued. Parker was very much in evil
dence with a double and a triple out
of three times up.
Brown worked for the locals and he
was in grand form. Not a hit was
when, with two down he soaked Berg
wald in the Stats. Kendall followed
with a single and then Fowler hit
safely and Pierce errored in fielding it.

reception in the first Parker led off

DIR. WOODWARD LOOKING VI
THE SLAUGHTER HOUSES.
Anxious for More Stringent Legisla-
ton to Attain Better Results.
Urges q Municipal One.

In speaking of his plans for a more
thorough supervision and better control
Of the slaughter houses located in the
District of Columbia. Health Oficer
Woodward said today that these estab-
lishments need considerable attention.
In his inspections of them he is to be as
sisted by the bureau of animal industry
Of the Department of Agriculture. but to
bring about the results he is anxious for
more stringent legislation is necessary
and an effort to obtain 1t will be made
at the next session of Congress.
The slaughter houses In this city. Dr.
separated. making inspections difficult
Their hours Of Strengthening are varied,
and because Of this 1t Is almost impossi-
bic to carry out systematic supervision
Of such establishments.
Regarding additional legislation Dr.
Woodward said that bill providing for
the better control of slaughter houses
was introduced at the last session OF
Congress. but 1t was not enacted. What
he particularly wants In this connection
is regular Strengthening hours in order
that an inspector can arrange to be
present during the operations to see II
the federal and local laws are observed.
For q Municipal Slaughter House.
What DR.. Woodward considers would
make an ideal situation Is the establishing
Of municipal slaughter house where the
work of all men now engaged IN slaugh-
tering could be done. A number Of these
municipal slaughter houses are in opera
ton In this country and Europe. particu-
larry In the latter. and, according to DR..
Woodward, the scheme promises to be-
come more common in this country. The
cost OF such an establishment would be
about $4,000.
The inspectors who visited lunchrooms
on Pennsylvania avenue, 9th street. Lou
isiana avenue. E and F streets northwest,
yesterday reported to DR.. Woodward to-
day that they found conditions in gen.
orally fair condition. although they were
required to give warnings in ten instances.
Three places were reported as excellent.
Two places had taken down their signs
and gone out Of business temporarily.
Dr.. Woodward Is advised by his inspect.
ors that the citizens in general are CO.
operating with the health department In
its house to house inspection.

OREGON ELK.
Big Fellow Who Has Led Many

Seaside Correspondence Portland Oregoniau.
James Henckman, who is just in from a
timber cruise in the Necanicum noun
tains, is able to verify the legend OF a
monster elk, which has led many hunters
on q wild chase through the mountains
Of the Upper Necanicum.
For years 1t has been reported that an
elk larger than any horse in Seaside. with
q hoof that made a track over seven
inches in diameter. roamed the woods
near the headwaters Of the Necanicum
and the North Nehalem. He was too
wary for the most experienced hunters.
who tried in vain to stalk him.
Jim took a stroll while they were noon

to an open glade containing about eighty
acres. Standing within the edge of the
timber he counted sixteen elk feeding
leisurely in the opening. He noticed three
bucks. good large fellows. but he almost
had the ague when he saw the monarch
of the herd, which he AYERS is a mon

RAILWAY RATES AND TOXIC.
japanese Steamship Company Work
ing for a Trade Agreement.

TOXIC, July 16. via San Francisco.
August At appears that the strenuous
exertions made by the Nippon Yusen
Kaisha Steamship Company and others
to induce the American railway COM
panies to reconsider the proposed schedule
Of rates have been attended with some
measure Of success. The railway com.
panies are now said to have cabled the
directors OF the Nippon Yusen Company
in the sense that rates will be kept down
to the San Francisco level.
The Japanese Boyeki Kyokai also has
received from the railway control bureau
At Chicago an assurance that as this
question Of rates closely concerns the
trade between the two countries every ef-
fort will be made to arrange a mutually
satisfactory schedule. Nagoya and Seto
have also cabled to the same bureau in
Chicago and have urged that the pro-
tected Increase of rates would be fatal.
These two places are the great centers
OF Japan porcelain manufacture. They
export nve million yen worth OF ceramic
ware annually to America and they have
hitherto paid 20 yen ton for transporta-
ton. Under the new schedule. however.
they would have to pay 20 yen, and this
would mean that the Suex route must be
chosen In preference to the American.

Treatment Of Birds.
From the Christian Register.

Many reformers will sniff when we say
that one of the most important moral and
Industrial questions now before the Amer
lean people relates TO the treatment and
the fate Of our native and migratory
birds. During two or three weeks in a
year some birds have to be watched. The
crows pull up the corn. and the cedar
birds eat cherries. but during at least
forty-hve weeks in the year our birds are
busily engaged in exterminating vermin
and insects injurious to vegetation. The
losses due to the destruction of the BIRDS
in the last forty years have amounted to
billions of dollars. In respect to the
equilibrium maintained between bird life
and plant life. the Chinese and japanese
are far In advance of us. II we were
human and little more than half civil
lied. ii would not be many years before
all our ponds lakes rivers. forests and
fields would be populated by happy races
OF these beautiful friends and co-workers
with mankind.

The progress Of banking concentration
