M The flght undoubtedly was tho best H ever seen in this locality, but tho do- H cision was not approved by hundrqds H of fans. Tho flght by rounds would H give Morrisscy credit for a decision. H, Tho rounds were: First, second, j third, sixth, seventh, eleventh, H twelfth, fourteenth, oven; fourth, H fifth, fifteenth, Young's; eighth, ninth, M tenth, thirteenth, Morrlsscy's. The re- H suit of the decision cost the Idaho jj fans between $2,000 and $3,000. He It is a matter of opinion as to wheth- H or Tom Painter, a man who has ref- K orecd hundreds of battles without a H mistake, erred in his judgment of tho Hf fight. Morrlssey has n peculiar shell H in which ho covers up, and this alone H might have caused Painter to make H his decision in favor of Young. As to H the cleaner blows and better foot- H work, Morrisscy had all tho better of Hg the fight. Timo after timo he would Hs rock Young's head with well directed Hf blows, and, in tho thirteenth round Hl had Young in a bad way. H Young played entiroly for the kid- Hj neys, but his blows almost always Rf slipped off or landed on Lee's shoul- Hr ders. Young forced the fighting, but H this, without landing blows, could not K have earned him the decision.

Barrieau Wins. Frank Barrieau, tho Canadian champ, hit Kid Irish of Salt Lake, in tho main preliminary, with everything ,but tho water bucket and earned a de cision after ten rounds of fast fighting. Irish proved to bo a good chopping block for Barrieau. Timo after timo Frank would uppercut, jab, hook, feint and smash over a wicked right cross to Irish's jaw. He repeated this for ten rounds, until Irish could hard ly stand on his legs. To tho writer it brought visions of "Tho Kid's Last Fight." The card as a whole was the best ever staged in Ogdon, but by tho un popular decision the enjoyment of the evening was dampened. This has happened in practically every fight this and last year in Ogdon. It is to be hoped a boxing commission will bo established soon for tho good of the game. Wo do not doubt Tom Painter's abil ity, but if his work in previous years as a referee was of tho same calibre as last night's wo cannot understand how he has gotten by with it so long. uu PACIFIC COAST LEAGUE LEAGUE STANDING.

BEAVERS BADLY BEATENBY SEALS Charley Baum Pitches Air tight Ball Final Score 10 to 2. PORTLAND, April 26. Just when tho Bcavors were mobilized for an other drivo on tho Seals today tho Soals broke the plans up with a sor rowful bump. In witness wboroof tho scoro, San Francisco 10, Portland 2. Several of tho Beaver boys Hol lochor and Babo Borton particularly played like a bevy of eau do cologned chorus ladies. They couldn't field and thoy couldn't catch, and onco or twice forgot to think. Add to this the fact that Charloy Baum twirled airtight ball under a sovon run lead pilod up off Byron Houck in tho first two in nings and you get a fairly accurate picture of tho massacre. Houck didn't even get his bearings. Hits by Pick, Downs and Koernor, a walk and an error by Borton in tho first Inning spotted tho visitors three registrations. Errors by Wlllo and Hollocher and three additional safo swats in the second round added four to tho Seal total and caused tho ban ishment of Houck. Al Leake succeeded Houck and his right flipper exuded cunning from ev ery pore, pitching shutout ball from tho second to the ninth. In tho ninth Borton essayed a cou ple of mlscues, once forgotting to cov er first base on a grounder to Hollo cher, and the Seals prodded In tho final threo tallies. Leake made good at bat; he cracked out a couplo of two-base hits and walked once in four Journeys. One of his two-baggers almost cloared tho left field fence. Charloy Baum grew philanthropic toward tho close. In the ninth ho quit Irrigating tho ball with tho result that the Beavers sailed out and scorod two runs. Siglln singled to right, Leake doubled to right, scoring Siglin, and Hollocher followed with a blow to right, scoring Hollocher. Wi He also hit safely, but to no avail.

ITI01L BICYCLE WEEK ML 28TH TO MOT 5TH April 28 to May 5 has been set apart all over tho country by bicycle man ufacturers and dealers as Blcyclo week and local dealers are planning to make it a big week, with special colobratlons to omphasizo the Joys and pleasures of bicycle riding. Tho statement that close to a mil lion bicycles were sold last year may be a surprise to some people. Yet it is truo. and leading manufacturers report that the demand was not satisfied by tho supply. A shortage of metal tub ing, duo to war conditions, prevented even greater sales. Careful Investigation shows that oven in tho boom days of 1897 and 1898 when tho country was "blcyclo crazy," not one million bicycles wore sold In a year. When we hear that the confi dent talk of the blcyclo trade is "A million or moro bicycles for 1S17," we can believe that tho bicycle has come back. Tho working man finds it a convenient and economical way to get to his work and merchants find in them n cheap, efficient means of mak ing quick light deliveries. It gives first enough exercise to wako a man up bofore beginning his daily tasks. To many a man the bicycle gives a hot lunch at home at noon, instead of cold sandwiches In tho workshop.
