Miss Josephine Marion performed a
deed of heroism at ST Leo's church last
Thursday. When kneeling before the
repository, she saw the cassock of Will

shippers, whose heads were bowed, she
rushed to the sanctuary and tore the
burning garment from the boy, suffer

hands.

At PORTLAND
TODAY

PORTLAND, Ore, March s.
With mild temperature and bright
sunshine, Portland is eagerly
awaiting the beginning of it's first
aviation meet, which Is scheduled
for this afternoon at the Country
club grounds.
Charles X. Hamilton, the Amer
lean aviator, will be the star per-
former at the meet, the program
calling for several flights in his
Curtiss biplanes this afternoon, and
on Sunday and Monday. Hamilton
has abandoned his proposed at
tempt to circle Mount Hood. This
flight would mean that..he would
have to cover a distance of 120
miles.
The first attempted flight will be
made by Walter e. Donnelly, a
local aviator, in the Curtiss BIZ
plane owned by e. Henry Wemme.
Hamilton will then appear and will
circle the field for Is minutes. 9th
err flights will follow by Hamilton,
demonstrating his complete control
over the air in aeroplanes.

circulated freely, the catcher's

the laurels to Charles Radbourne of
the Providence Nationals. In 1888,
when his team was after the pen
nant, Radbourne pitched u games,
81 of which were consecutive, and
of the 81 games % were victories.
''If you ask me the difference
between the pitchers of today and
the pitchers of former days, l would
say that the pitchers today have the
cunningness not to go into a box

nothing of ritching six or seven
