Gilbert's latest achievement is the knock- ing out of I.loyd Madden at Port- land, and any boxer who can put Madden to sleep must be some slugger! Marty Farrell, recent arrival on the coast, meets Al Sommers In Portland Wednesday night of this week.

Some attention has been paid to athletics in Sweden recently on account of the Olympic games held there in 1912 and the" fact that four of our best athletes spent several weeks In Sweden about a year ago :n competition with the beet the Scandinavians had to offer. But Swedish track and field ath- letes enjoyed their host year In 1917, according to reports from Stockholm. Athletes under the direction of Krnie Jljertberg set four new world records and | smashed a total of 22 Swedish j records. John Bolin and A. Zander, the greatest of the Swedish athletes, were responsible for eight of these records, three of Zander's being world standards; the 1000 metre Billy Speas, hard-hitting out- fielder in the Pacific Coast league will handle the destinies of the Tacoma Tigers during the 1918 Reason. Owcer Russ Hall lias flna-lly de- cided on Speas, and the deal has been signed up and put on record. Speas will stay in Ohio, where he has spent the winter, and will probably sign up a bunch of bail players for the Tacoma team there. Yelm Hunter Kills ' Two Huge Cougars (Special to The Times.) I YELM, March 11.—Two Im- mense cougars In one afternoon formed the bag of H. O. Round- tree, noted varmint hunter and trapper, last Thursday afternoon. Roundtree Is our- of the best known and most intrepid hunters In Lewis and Thurston counties and his single-handed killing of the two big beasts Is no little feat. Roundtree struck the tracks of the two cougar Thursday morn- ing.

He had a hard time controlling the men, and was a between a fox terrier- aid a hound, lie took up the chase. Tracks were easy to follow In the 18-lnch snow. About 3:30 In the afternoon tho hunter came to a spot where the cougarH had killed a big deer. They had eaten the entire carcass, except the larger hones and the neck. Pursuing the chase further, the dogs soon treed one of the cou- gars, and Roundtree shot It.
