Forever Sacred 10 the Memory or
Homer Calvin Davenport.
Lest we forget Manila bay
"Their monument the trust,
| place this little crude bouquet
Above his sacred dust
And for the friends who loved him
best,
Who cannot gather here,
From north and south, from east and
west,
drop God-sent tear.
We loved him for his strenuouspess,
His hate Of false pretense,
Simplicity and tenderness
And manly self-defense.
The men he cartooned loved him
best,
They recognized the spark,
Like Teddy in the woody west
And "Hannas 5 mark"
He loved Gods masters everywhere
Observed the golden rule,
He learned his lessons on the square,
In natures classic school,
And ! a bronco wayward stray
'Tis all that | can do,
To send my heart In this bouquet,
And moist with heavens brew.

VICTORY FOR
BITULITHIC PAVEMENT
Action Of Newberg in Selecting This
Material for Hard Surfacing Her
Streets Is Likewise Regarded as o
Victory for Property Owners.

Newberg, Ore, May, 1912. The con-
tract for paving the streets Of New
berg was awarded by the city council
last night bitulthic being the material
selected. The decision Of the council
was practically unanimous as to the
material to be used, as the mayor and
council, as we'll as the committee rep
resentlng the property owners, have
had the matter under consideration for
some time, and have thoroughly in
vestigated the claims made by the va
rious paving companies as to the mer-
It's Of the different materials pro-
proposed.
Though paving propositions, slight
ly cheaper as to initial expense, were
submitted II was considered practical
to select the more durable bitulithic,
owing to the great saving made pos
sible in the maintenance, as this ma
terial lasts for years without the ne
cesslty for repairs.
General satisfaction is felt regard
ing the action Of the council in the Sc
lection of paving material, a natural
result Of the unanimous action Of the
property owners in signing the petit
tlons that have been circulated in IA
yor Of bltulithic, and the work Of paw
ing, which will begin at once, is said
to be but the forerunner Of much Inn
provement which win take place here
this spring.

these schools was in the air, and
there should be a standing committee

deviated from the smooth track to the
right. Mechanician Frank Agan and
Gil Anderson were throwing wet earth
upon the engine to extinguish a slight
blaze which threatened to burn up the
insulation and oil on the motor.
But for the fact that the Insulation
was burned off the wires and the en-
CINE plastered with mud, Harry Stutz
stated that the car was in condition to
be driven back to the pits. The hood
was torn from the radiator and frame.
The wind shield" was bent badly just
about where Shorty" Agan had been
accustomed to sitting. but otherwise
the little racer was in shipshape and
little worse for its strenuous shaking
up.
The accident is attributed to the
slippery condition of the turns. OIL
dropping from the speeding motors has
made the banks Unusually slippery and
Gil refused to take this into considera-
ton when he tore around the turn at
high speed. He hung too close to the
edge of the track, however, and the car
skidded on into the mud. The intrepid

CUBS DROP CLASH
TO CAST OFF. 6-5

1t might have been the return OF the
alleged Brooklyn hoodoo of last season
that beat the Cubs at the west side yes
terday afternoon. but 1t is more reason
able to think 1t was some splendid
pitching by Don Carlos Pat Ragon, a
Cub CASTOR. The score was to 2, and
the Ragon person held the hopeful west
siders to four safe swats.
Heine Zimmerman didn't get one OF
the four, either. thus experiencing his
second hitless game of the season.
When Heine doesn't hit, the Cubs can't
win. Sometimes they can't when he
does hit. Along with their inability
to bat with any degree of success the
Cubs were guilty of some messy field
ing that helped the Long Islanders to
their total OF six runs.
Charley Smith, the tall, rangy twirl-
er OF the Cubs, was sent to the slab at
the start He hadn't appeared since
losing a tough luck contest to Boston
when the veteran Otto Hess opposed
him and held the Cubs to one hit. This
time Smith wasn't up to his usual
speed, and experienced lot of trouble
in the second inning. finally being re-
moved. Jim Lavender replaced him and
pitched some dandy ball. but the game
was lost already. He gave his place at
| bat to pinch hitter in the eighth and
Jimmy Moroney hurled the last round
for Chicago.

luton deposited the car knee deep in

little racing car was unchanged, and
Designer Harry Stutz announced, after
viewing the remains" and seeing the
machine righted, that 1t would be out

The accident took place in the full
view of the big grand stand in front of

that visited the speedway yesterday
was on its feet in an instant when An
derson's mount was seen doing a zig
gag on the hank just opposite the one

News of the mishap was brought to
the pits by Bert Dingley, who was driv-
ing his Simplex just ahead of Ander-
