It was Portland all the way. and the Beavers turned the almost unheard-of trick of beating Krank Brown ing, who was more or less of a Jinks to the McCredie squadron In former time. Browning started the affair for the Seals, and after George Ort soaked one on the kisser for three sacks, scoring the second run In the fourth canto, and the Bearers became threatening a couple of Innlnit later. "Captain Kid" Mohler Jerked the former Detroit Ti ger and substituted Harry Sutor. who made a most auspicious start, for he wormed out of difficulty In the sixth and then fanned out three Beavers In a row In the seventh, but in the eighth the home guard lacerated his offerings most unmercifully and tallied three more runs, making the total live for the game. t'mlr Fans Delighted. Naturally, the swatfest delighted the fair ones who passed up the circus pink lemonade and display of tights to see Handsome Venn Gregg pitch. The feminine bugs did not care a rap whether Gregg was married or not, for they yelped and applauded him as en thusiastically as though he was single, and the big southpaw seemed to like it, for he pitched his best throughout, and was never in serious danger, because he had exceptionally good control. Paring the matinee the big fellow whiffed eight of the Seals, which Is bet ter than the average number of strike outs to a game, though he did not equa! hi past performances In this line. Browning got by without damage un til the fourth. Kapps opened this in ning with a single to right, and took -cond on the first of Casey's three aacrl rice hits. Sheehan's out put "Roar ing Bill" on third, and Billy Speas de livered the hit that tallied Mm. and the "speed marvel" ducked into second when the toss was made to the plate to catch ftapps. Ort Grl Long Hit. Then George Ort got an "almost" home run. for George pelted the pellet to the far corner of the enclosure, scor ing Sfeas. and easily acquired three sacks for the efforta but he was no. r tinned and desired a circuit swat to be recorded, and In trying for the reg ister he was out. because Tommy Ten rant happened to be backing up a throw from the outer works, and. glora ralng a wild heave, he shot It Into th3 nt.ts of Nick Williams, getting Ort by an eyelash. It was a good hit. and the crowd appreciated Oris try by hearty applause, for Portland had two tuns and the Seals none. In the sixth Browning allowed two Reavers to get on. and Mohler shooed him to the stable, substituting Sutor. who pitched himself out of the hole. In the seventh the Seal southpaw fanned Murray. Gregg and Ryan In suc cession, but in the eighth he was not so successful and Portland tallied lhrlce. and George Ort was once more the hero with a long bit. Moth Men Advanced. Olson opened the Inning with a hit t left. Itappa followed by working Sutor for a pas, and Casey once more sacri rHcd. advancing both men. Slieehan'a long fly to l-ew is scored Olson, and Speas' second timely hit chased Kappa home, and Billy again took second on the throw. Then came Ort with another snot to the score board, but this time .Madden fielded the ball In time to re lay It to McArdle. who tossed to Vltt a! third, catching Ort sliding Into tnat bac and robbing him of a three bagger. That waa all in the scoring line, but It was enough. Kugene Krapp will pitch for Portland today, and "Kid" Mohler will probably send "Slivers Henley against Portland for the sec ond time this week. Krapp beat Hen ley Tuesday, so today's game ought to be a great battle between them. The score of yesterday's game is as fol lows: SAX FRANCISCO.

Kootenay would have lost on the opening inning.

Fandom at Random EAN GREGG had no difficulty with V the Seals yesterdky. for the big southpaw was as steady as a clock, and kept his hits well scattered. He also had fine control. a The Seals tried the bunting game on Gregg, and "swinging bunts" in the first two Innings gave them a couple of hits, but Tommy Sbeehan. Olson and Casey broke this style of play up very shortly. a a a The smoke Is getting to be somewhat flerce at the ball games, for at times it is difficult to distinguish the outfield ers. How the outer gardeners Judge fly bails is a mystery.; a a a Madden was plainly puxxled by the haxy atmosphere when Ort connected for bis triple in the fourth inning, for he acted as though he misjudged the ball.

GCIDELESS HORSE IS COMING College Maid Will Be Attraction at Portland Fair. College Maid, the world's champion guideless pacer, will appear' at the Portland Fair and Livestock Exposi tion. September 6 to 11. This wonder ful mare goes on the racetrack alone, without rider or driver, and paces like a demon, observing all the decorum and rules of the racecourse perfectly. She holds the world's record of 2:07hi over a half-mile track and will no doubt lower this record by several sec onds on the Portland mile track. The Maid's fastest performance to date is a half mile on a half mile track in 1:01. Many horsemen who saw this perform ance expressed the opinion that she would have finished the mile In 2:04 eablly. Without exception those who have seen the "guideless wonder" race de clare her to be the greatest attraction ever seen on a racetrack. Not. only horsemen who appreciate extreme speed, but men, women and children are loud in their praise of this won derful animal, racing entirely on her own courage and intelligence. The Maid appears on Children's Day to give the little ones the opportunity of see ing her. W. H. Williamson, owner of College Maid, is in the habit of asking schools and colleges wherever the Maid ap pears to furnish their colors for her to wear in her performances. Should any of Portland's schools wish to see their colors worn by College Maid, they will confer a favor on Mr. 'Williamson by leaving their ribbons with the sec retary of the Portland Fair and Live stock Exposition, who will deliver them to Mr. Williamson on his arrival at Portland. The guideless champion is very proud of ribbons and does not like to race without them.. LACROSSE IS PLAYED AT NIGHT White Sox Grounds Brilliantly Il luminated by New Plant. CHICAGO. Aug. 26. C. A.

So eminent a musical authority as Henry T. Finck says: "When Maud Powell plays, one thinks not of bowing and finger ing, of staccato or legato, of harmonics or double-stops, of trills though they be, as hers are, Melba-like in their perfection; one thinks only of the music. Like a great actor, she makes one forget the player in the art."
