Uknlw It saw the Onklsnders wxl lnped Id the first ctton of the double header 3 to 2. while In the second con tt. after honors had swayed back and forth. Pttcher Krapp blew up in the last of the 11th and presented the battle to his opponents. 4 to 1 Tt would bo hardlv 'air. perhaps, to y that Portland deserved to win the second frame, since both teams failed when there were treat openings, but the support accorded Krapp was respon sible for tbe first two runs that were cored aatnst him. Dooblehraflern Ait Enjoyed. Evidently the Oakland followers of the game In connection with a larsje gathering from San Francisco side of the bay enjoy double-headers, for the stands were well filled before the time the first frame started, were filled com pletely before the second was under way. and but few people left until the Oaks had cinched the second and di vided honors for the afternoon. Beaton pitched most of the first frame for the Beavers, although when the Oaks appeared dangerous toward the close he wax hastily removed In favor of Krapp. who finished out wlth oot further trouble. Krapp was less fortunate, for there was no one to take his place when he showed sighs of trouble toward the end of his own frame. Previously, when Christian was in danger, he had been replaced by Har king, but McCredle evidently thought that Krapp was capable of jmlnK through without getting Into hot water. The second game was the One that carried most of the thrills. With the core favoring the Oaks after a couple of errors In the second Inning. Port land tied tt up In the sixth on a double by Casey". In the eighth, the Oaks should have won and In the ninth the Beavers had thrlr one grand oppor tunity, but mlsfcert fire. When McCredle's men managed t put across a run In the 11th it looked as If they were to score twice on the Commuters, but Krapp. who has had little luck pitching against the second place men. went high In the air and gave the game away.

It appears ss If the ChlcaKO Cub baseball team will be deprived of the services of Pitcher Orval Overall, one of the mnrat dependable men on Manager Chance s staff. How long Overall, will be compelled to remain out is not known. He does not know himself. When he warms up In preliminary practice there does not rem to be any pain, but as soon as l.e gets Into a game and extends himself the ligament in the elbow seems to knot and cause him moments of agony. It has been bothering him for two weeks now. He tried to pitch yesterday and had to give It UD. Overall himself doea not think the ln- lury is serious, but he Is unable to dls cover why it does not getfwell. He Is treatinu.lt continually and now the only- thing that may do the arm good Is a rest, and It is likely Manager Chance will ad vise him to lay off for awhile.

IRVINGTON PLAY IS FAST Portland Club's Tournament Brings Out Son.e of Mom Hard-Fought Matches Between Women Ever Seen on Courts. DEL MONTE. Cal., Sept 8. (Special.) In the tennis tournament at Del Monte today one championship was decided in a splendid match between Miss May Sut ton and Miss Mary Brown against Mias Haxel Hotchklse and Miss Golda Myer. Miss HotchkJss and Misa Myer defeated their opponents In a three-set match, by a soore of 8-3. 8-4. 6-2. and retained then- titles of woman doubles champlona of the Pactflo States. The match resolved iteelf Into a test of generalship. Miss Browne on her aide taking the net. while Miss Sutton" held the back court. Their opponents held more to the usual formation, both play ing mainly from the back court. Miss Browne's Work Spectacular. Miss Browne furnished the most spec tacular play of the contest, her volleying t the net. the smashing of overhead balls, being deadly in the extreme. Miss Sutton drove fiercely from the hock court, but her steady opponents gave her more work than even she could handle. With a wholesome respect for Miss Browne's' prowess they lobbed over her. kept It up until Miss Sutton' re turns would become a little short, and then Miss Hotchklss would, move up and usually end the point by a well-directed volley or smash. Miss Hotrhkisx. throughout, played an extremely clever and effective game, be ing at her bout in all departments. Miss Sutton and Miss Browne made a fierce attack on Miss Myer and prolonged it pretty well throughout the match, but her great steadiness enabled her to re turn tho most difficult shots and she used her deadly backhand drive with telling effect on every safe opportunity. The first set wae won by Miss Hotch klss and Miss Myer, who took the lead from the start and retained it through out., winning by a score of 8-3. In the next set. where Miss Sutton and Miss Browne did their best work, they In turn held a steady lead and won by a score of 6-3. With the Bets one-all.

Suits WOMEN STARS IX TENNIS PLAY Good Programme on for Today and Matches Played on Schedule. Although only a few matches were played yesterday In the Irvlngton Club tennis tournaments they were nearly all good ones, making one of the best days of the tournament. Most of the matches were long-drawn, hard-fought contests, several of which went to three deuce sets before a winner could be decided. Forty-three games were played be fore Mrs. W. I. Northrup defeated Miss Clara Weidler. The match was by far the most keenly contested yet played during the tournament, each woman playing her hardest to win. As a re sult, many of the games went to deuce. Miss Weidler had no trouble taking the first set 6-1. Mrs. Northrup then took a decided braoe and won the sec ond set 6-4. After this a set began In which, be fore Mrs. Northrup won. there were 26 games plaved. Each one was hard fought, too. Mrs. Northrup proved the belter stayer and won out principally because of her superior strength. Miss Weidler was "all in" after the contest, whlob. lasted for nearly two hours. It was by far the best match of the day and one of the best of the tournament. Another long contest was played be tween Mrs. Harold Charters and Miss Mabel Goss. the former winning, after 43 games had been played. In three hard and gruelling sets. Miss Goss won the first set 9-7. Mrs. Charters rallied nicely In the second and cap tured it 6-8. The third and nnal set required Is games and Mrs. Char ters took it. Both players were per ceptibly tired after the hard match. Only three matches were played In the mens singles. Wlokersham won two matches and they practically put him In the finals for the club cham pionship. Two matches were played in the women's singles of the club cham pionship play. Miss Lily Fox. after three straight sets, succeeded in win ning from Mrs. Florenoe Irwin 6-3. 4-6. 6-4. This puts Miss Fox In line to play In the championship match on Saturday by winning another match tomorrow. F. H. V. Andrews, after easily win ning his first set in the match with Van Loan in the club championship plav. was forced to extend himself to take the final set. The scores were 6-1. 8-7. Owing to the fact that many of the players heard the call of the horserace yesterday and failed to nut in an ap pearance at the courts, the schedule of games will be followed to the letter. Is the statement Issued last night by the tennis committee. If any player scheduled for today falls to appear on the courts within 15 minutes after their game Is scheduled the match shall go to default. Today's matches are the semi-finals in each class and some good matches are promised. The morning will vie with the afternoon In honors.

BEACHES ARE ACTIVE Investment Feature Attract Many Buyers of Lots. More Resort Property Sold This Summer Than Any Other Kind of Real Kstate In Northwest. "There has been more activity in beach real estate this Summer than in all other kinds combined," was the re mark of one of the foremost real estate men of Portland, In summing up the market for the last two months. "There are 26 resorts on the Oreg-on Coast from the Columbia KJver to Cape Lookout, that have been pretty con stantly advertised this Summer," he continued. "Every one of them has merit of some kind or another. Some, however, are more advantag-eously lo cated than others. But the beaches themselves have not been the reason for the bis: sales. It has been Investment." Portland people have at last come to the conclusion that the very best in vestment in real estate Is along the beach. There are two reasons for this: First, prices are ridiculously low; sec ond, prices rise with greater rapidity. The Investment, therefore, need not be large, while the returns are way ahead of all proportions to Investments in city property. Tillamook Beach, for Instance, has no through railroad now. Is not Improved, other than what nature has done for It, and lies In Its wild beauty just as it was left when It was made. But a rail road will be running this Fall. Im provements will immediately follow. Tillamook Beach will then be the most popular reBort on the coast. Property Is low now at Tillamook Beach, consequently a good investment, for thev are as certain to rise: as the Tiaeo. Ajn.cio.vuic . ..."r. t.na -- will be sent free on request by C.
