WHO IS GREATEST
|NF|ELDER IN GAME
Long List of Stars, But Tenney
Names Jimmy
Collins.
BY FRED TENNEY.

New York, May 2S.-"Who is the
greatest infielder I've ever SEEM
When one considers the number of
players with whom I've been associated
in the past seventeen years, it would
seem as though the answer to the
question would be rather difficult. The
names Of Lowe, Long, Jennings, Nc
Graw, Wagner, Lajoie, Evers, Devlin,
Leach, BridwelI, each man a wonder
full player, pass before my mind IN
review, but one name stands out as
head and shoulders above even this
galaxy Of stars.
Possessed of a wonderful pair of
hands, q phenomenal ground coverer,
great thrower, always cool and col
lected, Jimmy Collins was the infielder
par excellence of the national game
No one has ever approached him in
ability to play and handle ground or
fly balls. I once heard an old player
remark that Jimmy could go on a
railroad track and handle the bounces
between the ties just as well as on
a smooth field; bad hops might bother
others, but never him..
His action was as graceful as a
French dancing master, never a false
move or awkward grab; instinctively
his hands seemed to know where the
ball was coming and were in position
to handle it.

FLOYD MCFARLAND,
EAST WANTS A PENNANT
Fans Think 1t About Time Western
Monopoly Is
Ended

New York, May 2S.-Will this years
baseball machinery produce a pennant-
winner for the east? is a question
the anxious fans would like to have
solved before the end comes The peo-
pie hereabouts are tired of seeing each
year the characteristics that so closely
resemble those Of the preceding
seasons, without being able to get a
novelty as an agreeably surprising
change. The activities go just far
enough to Whet the appetite, without
furnishing the substantial which would
appease the hungry soul
The grind each season, for some time
past, has produced only pennant-win-
ners for the west, and the tendency
to a continuous performance in that
respect has become very monotonous,
to say the least.
There is no doubt that the time has
arrived when the east should be the
storm center Of the closing scenes of
a great baseball campaign. Undoubt-
edly. 1t would benefit the game materi-
ally to have the final actions laid on
eastern diamonds. Would like to see
either the Philadelphia Athletics, the
Bostons or the New York Americans
present the final argument for the
American league. with the New York
Nationals as the National league con-
tenders. If the fates favored New
York with two pennant-winners, we
would have to accept the situation In
the most graceful manner, and the old
town might probably survive the or
deal, even though it would be the most
phenomenal event that would fall to
our lot since the formation of the game
on this island some time since. But
in any turn of the Wheel of For
tune, the McGrawites should be the
National leagues representatives in the
green diamond argument.

Under the direction of Manager
Dick Dwyer $4,000 in improvements
have been expended. From the rail-
road a walk has been built into the
stand and to the betting ring; gravel
has been placed between the grand
stand and the inside rail and the
ground oiled to keep the dust down to
q minimum. The jOckies quarters
have been enlarged with a flat club
roof so that the boys can view the
races when not engaged. More than
800 new stalls have been built and
many other improvements, both for
the comfort of the patrons of the
game and the horsemen.
Each day brings to the club head
quarters indications that point to
meeting beyond expectations Horse
men from all parts are coming, and
high-class animals are the rule.
Manager Dwyer has issued the pro-
gram book for the first week, and
5000 copies have been sent out by
mail to all turf headquarters. The
program shows an average of $1,000
daily in purses, exclusive of the big
stakes. The average purse is $3.50, and
one or more daily handicaps run much
higher
For the first day the feature will be
the opening handicap, valued at $500,

After the days work was ended It
was learned that Cutler received his
pummeling in the way OF punishment
for staying away from the camp over
night. Johnson had warned Marty
that such things would not be al
lowed. In the second round of his
bout with Cutler, the champion cut
loose with some Furnishing body blows,
and finally cent in a short right-hand
uppercut that did not travel more
than six inches. 1t did the business,
however, and Cutler simply collapsed,
as limp as a rag.
In addition to that affair. Johnson
boxed four rounds with George Get
ton and two with Walter MOnahan, a
local heavyweight, who was recon-
mended by Referee Jack Welsh.
There was pulley exercising and
bag punching as well, the negro
spending a full hour - the gym

money. But any time he wants to

that some got out their sticks relying

PORTLAND SHOWN
HOOD RIVER ..PPLES

A display Of Hood River apples has
been in big Morrison street show
windows of the Olds, Workman e. King
store in Portland during the past
week, and has attracted wide at
tention. The display, which consists of
80 boxes of Ortleys, Spitzenburgs and
Winter Bananas, was put up in es-
pecially good shape by Robinson, de
Reding e. Crocker, of this city. Jack
Robinson was in Portland last week to
place the fruit which had been packed
here. There has been crowd some
times extending across the sidewalk
watching the display ever since it was
placed. Part of the day Tuesday it
was necessary to have two policemen
on duty to keep the crowds moving.
The apples were all selected rs perfect
fruit and the pack is strictly extra
fancy. There has been considerable
demand for this class of fruit during
the season and the new firm is meeting
the demand.

FIRE AND WATER
DAMAGE STORES

A fire was discovered in the Often
building Wednesday morning about six
O'Clock which might have resulted in a
great loss had it not been for the quick
action in extinguishing the flames by
the fire department. The principal
damage done by the fire was that suf-
fered by the occupants Of the building
from smoke and water. The Morlan q
Lathrop store was smoked from top to
bottom, and nothing escaped the
blackening damage while considerable
goods was water-sOaked in eXtinguish-
ing the flames. Their loss is es-
timated at about SIS, 600 and it is pro-
badly covered by insurance. In the
millinery store of j. & l.. Hawley,
there was also smoke and water dam
age and the loss will run probably $500
with insurance. The damage to the
building was comparatively slight, and
the repairs can probably be made for
$500. Full insurance was carried. 1t
was owned by John Often and had just
been completed about a month.
The exact cause Of the fire is not
known, but it is believed to have come
from the electric wires. 1t started
under the floor of the dry goods store
near the wall of the Hawley store, and
evidently burned slowly for some time
before being discovered. There had
been no fire in the furnace for several
days. The Misses Hawley, who live in
the building, were aroused by the
strong smoke and forced TO go outside,
but failed to realize that the building
was on fire. The alarm was sent in and
by the time the department arrived
the flames were getting through the
wall into the Hawley store. Nearly
everything was removed from this
store, and the stock and furniture wa'

Two contracts for street work were
let by the city council at its meeting
Monday evening, both going to the
same bidder, A. l.. Douglas, of Steven

also bid for the work. The improve
ments which were let were for the
grading and matchmaking of Cascade
Avenue from Fifth street west to the
city limits. Ninth street from Cascade
to Eugene and Eugene between Ninth

strong offered the council a plat of the
Paradise acreage as it has been sub.
divided. Contractor Aldred was grant
ed an extension of time for the COM
pletion of the State street improve
ment and gave notice of the COM
pletion of three blocks of the work.
The City Recorder is advertising this
week for bids for the Improvement
of East Second street and Oak street
and an effort will be made to get that
work underway before winter.

Moraln 4 Lathrop store none of the
goods seemed to escape the smoke
and apples in a show case were
partly cooked by the heat. Though no
goods was consumed by the flames the
damage will be great. The store was
closed yesterday pending the insurance
adjustments.
