For six lnnlng3 of good fast ball Seattle and Portland struggled at Recreation Park this afternoon before a man on either side had gone as far as second base. In that time the bunch from the Webfoot State got two hits, and the locals were held down, to one hit. Just before the game a small boy came up to Car rick with an old. rusty horseshoe, which he had found out in the street, and Car rick, with the assistance of the other players, nailed it over the bench. But the horseshoe failed to do its duty. Opposed to Carrlck was Jake Thielman. Jake Is doing double duty this series, playing iir left field, besides taking his turn in the box. He certainly delivered the goods today. Through the whole of the nine innings he was hit safely but once, and he did not walk a man until the ninth inning. It was in the seventh that the shower tell. Vanburen hit to Lumley, who made a great run and got his hands on the ball, but could not hold 1L Nadcati swung three times and failed to land. Then it was Andy Anderson to the front, and he lined out a two-bagger, bringing in the run that was sufficient to win the game. The next man went out on a fly to Smith, and Thielman nearly swung his head oft trying to land on one of Carrick's curves. In the ninth Inning Carrlck weakened, and. after Haidy had sent a drive that Zinssar made a brave run for and got. he walked his first man. Nadeau followed with a clean single, and Anderson smashed It down near short. Dolan might have got the ball, but Janslng tried to take it and both lost it. Van Burcn came In on the misplay. and Nadeau scored on Francis' fly to right. Thielman then drove out a clean one to left, and the third man came home.

Portland Tennis Crack Will Meet Freeman In Seml-Finals. TACOMA. Wash., Aug. 14. (Special.) There was a large attendance at the Pa cific Northwest tennis tournament today. The best match, of the day was that be tween Captain Bethel and W. A. Goss. both of Portland. Gobs won out in two sets, 6-2 and 6-4. Bethel won the first game of the opening set and had a score of 40-15 In the second when Goss overtook him and won a deuce game. The third was Bethel's, but steady playing on Goss part captured every one of the remaining five. Both men did fine work during this set, though Goss showed a falling off in bis form since he was last in Tacoma. He did not kill the hall when opportunity offered, and Bethel made every game close. Goss Jumped into the lead in the second set and Bethel did not overtake him. Goss took the third game by neat lobbing. In which he caught Bethel repeatedly. The fourth game also went to Goss, but Bethel won the fifty, a deuce game, by a hard smash. Bethel's back-hand drive was always effective, but his forward stroke almost always sent the ball into the net and lost many a point. Goss lost the ninth game with the score 5-4 on his own service, by falling to kill lobs, and a little hard luck. The tenth was hard-fought, Goss finally winning by driving Bethel from the net by lobbing and then dropping ono close in. Final score, 6-2, 6-4. Mr. Goss, as a result. Is scheduled to meet Freeman In the semi-finals. Freeman and Bethel won hands down from Robert and Hill Hudson early In the morning, 6-0. 6-0. Wild playing by the Hudson brothers, and lack of confi dence when pitted against the California and Oregon cracks, accounted for their poor showing.

The winner's time was 1:37 2-5. which is one-fifth of a second off the record made by Alan-a-Dale at Washington Park this Spring. ine race aid not amount to much as a contest, as Grand Opera was at no time near Dick Welles, the latter winning In a common canter. It was the opinion of horsemen who saw the race that Dick Welles could have run the mile In 1:37 flat had he been extended. Grand Opera had about a half-length the better of the start, but In three jumps Dick Welles was In front, and took the rail at the first turn. He opened up a gap of two lengths at the far turn, and main tained this all the way to the stretch, where he Increased the lead to Ave lensrths. From this home he was under a stout pull, and passed under the wire two and a half lengths In front of Grand Opera and only jogging. The feat Is the more remarkable from the fact that the Washington Park track Is much faster than the Harlem, In fact considered the fastest in the country, while Dick Welles carried 112 pounds to Alan-a-Dale's 1:10.
