De Mund, Amateur, Wins;
 TWitchell for State Club

towns around the state, President Twitchell of the Phoenix Gun club suggested the other day a mighty fine idea. It is this: A gold diamond medal was donated years ago to the state tournament to be given to the team winning the four team event. Now on- ly one team was represented this year and that was Phoenix so what shall be done with the medal. Why not sell this medal. which would bring $700 cash that could be invested on 20 acres of land where a gun club could be erected now for a small sum? As the years roll by, the tract will greatly increase in value. Twitchell suggested a company and stock divided into 10 shares of par value of $100 each. There are exactly ten gun clubs in the state that might take over one share each, and by doing so the clubs could mold shoots at any time al this central club. This could perpetuate the name of the donor of the medal We have thought it proper to ask the cor poration of the different gun clubs throughout the state to take part in this movement which is now under way.

POTLAND, Nov. 17.-Jofn M. Scott, general passenger agent of the Southern Pacific Company, held a conference today with w. w. Me Credie and Walter Fl. McCredie in regard to railroad passenger fares for ball players.
 It is our wish to give the Pacific Coast League satisfactory rates" said MT. Scott after the conference, and we ihcpe we may be able to do so."
 After a preliminary discussion MT. Scott and the McCredie's agreed to adjourn pending a meeting of rail- road passenger agents of all lines ar fected. which is to be held in San Ere oncisco Thursday.
 Other roads besides ours carry Pa cific Coast League players" said Mir. Scott They must all be consulted regarding the proposed rate adjust ment."
 Walter McCredie announced today that in the event Portland were dropped from the Pacific Coast League he probably would go with the team to whatever city was se- lected.

Cliff Durant comes in for about the only write-up this morning. Al this time of the year. everybody is look ing for publicity and following The Republicans resume of things a. they were yesterday. the Chevrolet man came in for a lot Of his. Durant produced his A. A. \. registry ana convinced Referee BUllard that his entry. while a Stutz in most par ticulars, had new engine in it, mad been entirely rebuilt, and had sue cesssfully passed the contest board. It will be officially known as a 'pUrant Special"
 \ petition was circulated among the drivers yesterday asking them to permit the Frank Goodc Stutz to enter as the fourth car of this make in tho race and it is understooG that all the driVers-even the ones who mad been complainirg about too many Stutz cars had been won over by the winning personality of Goode, who is right popular.
 T. is the opinion of some that there will be no difficulty over the excess ear, that not more than ten machines will line up at the start. In this case, there remains nothing of She fuss that seemed about to afford the public some real amuse- ment before the race.
 Work in the car barns yesteru consisted mainly of tire repairs, mounting new castings. and preparing for what the drivers concede will be as much race of tire-changing as of driving. It is not though likely that the speed will be faster than 60-65 miles an hour for the l50 miles. it is practically certain that the hard smooth track will compel every team to do some lightning pit work on the shoes. The Steinfeld car, which had been torn down the day before, is in process of rebuilding, and will present a pure and stainless white appearance.
 Four Motorcycle Types There will be four types of motor cycles in the 100 mile race Saturday. Of these. it IS thought the Excelsiors are the fastest, and at the same time pretty durable But the real fight will be between Perry and Morty Graves. Johns will make some as- tonishing miles but will be a sort of pacenaker and is not on the list of favorites.

Even if Doc Pardee did get his'n in the roping yesterday, he put over one when he unloaded a lot of cow punchers on that string of wild horses he imported from Prescott Pardee loaned the buckers to the fair, and not a single entrant in the buclling yesterday qualified.
 Snake Richards was the only one who escaped, and he got by merely because his latigo broke just about as he was about to be piled. He gets another horse today.
 All praise is due to the judges. who looked 'em over from both sides, and insisted that the riders make the cayuses jump. None of tke riders seemed able to do anything but sit tight, so it was no go.

 CHAS. ]. HARVEY

Everyone was waiting for the Governors Derby yesterday after noon at the fair grounds. In fact the derby far overshadowed the other two running races so that they hardly appealed to the crowd
 In spite of the fact that the derby was the biggest race on the program, the horses were unable to get away to an anything like decent start. All four horses with more spirits than was necessary lined up at the bar rier and consistently refused to point their exclusive muzzles in the right direction. Finally the starter thought he had them about right, and let the web go, but one side refused to go up, and Tom Franks. ridden by Armstrong, got caught in it's meshes. The other three went gaily on their respective ways. and after a heart breaking run, Chas. J. Harvey, who had been light in the betting. came out ahead. Oswald led the procession most of the way, but could not keep up the heartbreaking pace. The Har Vey horse won by nose or pos sibly a little less. They navigated the mile in 1.42H.
 Be, who has been winning most everything he has been started in, again came out ahead in the three quarter event. Hell Bender, Wh& was high in the betting. was a close sec Ond most Of the way. but along to- wards the last was forced to the rear by Tordillo.

HARNESS RACES
 DEVELOP SPEED
Three Year Olds Hold the Boards in Two Events at Fair Grounds: Otis Jr. Equals State Record for
 Class; Durfce Takes 2:15

In spite of the fact that two of the the fair grounds were for colts, con- siderable speed was developed and much interest manifested in all three events.
 Interest centered around the 2:15 pace, in which four horses were en- tered. Two of these were put in by W. J. Durfee. He tried out both Raya De Oro and Contention B. be- fore the first heat and decided to try his luck with Contention. The little gelding amply justified his faith He came home in front the first heat, but in the second heat, Durfee got away in back of the bunch and the head start was too much for him.
 After the heat he promised the judges that it wouldn't happen again an6 when he next faced the wire. he got away well up with the other two Although he took the third heat, it was seven seconds slower than the previous two. Durfee came very near not starting in the third heat. owing to the conflicting attractions. The tuuSeS naO to send . messenger to drag him away from the diving girl show.
 The three year old trot, the first number on the card surprised the crowd. It was not expected that the babies would develop any speed, but Otis Jr. fooled everyone by eqralling the state record for his class He trotted the mile in 2:22A in both heats. winning the race in straight heats. Navajo and pr. Davidson, who both had a third and fourth place, divided third and fourth money. with Irene Strathmore taking the second money.
 Winnie R., the little bay lilly, was the sensation of the 3-year-o pace. Owing to the fact that the little mare had bad no more than four work puts. it was not expected that she would do m ore than finish, though she didn't win 9 heat, she was close up to the leaders both times, and finished 3 good third each time. RoXie D., driven by Enfield, took both heats and the race, but was forced to extend herself to the limit both times. Mar guerite could not keep her feet, and broke to her disadvantage in both heats.
