VICTORIA, B. C Sept. 27. (Spe
claL) The Colts laid off from serious
work today and when they took the
field, only three men were seen in their
regular positions. Catcher Burch was
on the mound and Utility Inflelder
Esola behind the bat. Bobby Coltrin
was at flrst with a catcher's mitt. Ma
honey at short and Doty In center field.
In the sixth a change of backstops
and first basemen was made, owing: to
Esola's inability to stop Burch's fast
ones and the fact that Coltrin weak
ened and could no longer manipulate
the pillow he flaunted so gaily at the
start. Naturally the Bees won the
same, as they opposed to this assort
ment of mistits the regular line-up.
Yobe Flays for Time.
Evan Yohe, who had been laid up
with a "Charley horse." was back in
the fray for a while. But they didn't
have the snap they were looking: for.
Burch surprised his mates and foes
alike by pitching: pretty fair ball, being
tilt hard In only one inning:, the fifth.
rrors accounted for Victoria's runs in
the- fourth.
Pitcher Slim Smith got a raw deal
Sfrom Van Haltren In the fourth, ac
cording to the few present, who were
angered at the umpire for refusing to
see alleged strikes.
Van Haltren's work, aided and abet
ted by lax fielding and one hit, gave
Portland four counts In this frame.
They got two more In the sixth on
three blows, the last one a long two
bagger by Harris.

DEMAREE PRAISED BY M'GRAW
Southern League Star's Work in
Beating Boston Pleases.
NEW YORK, Sept. 27. Manager Mc
Graw, of the New York Nationals, to
day began grooming his men for the
world's series with the Boston Ameri
cans. With the pennant race won the
recruits will bear the brunt of the re
maining games while the veteran
players rest in relays, playing Just
enough to keep in good condition.
It is seldom McHrair discusses the
initial work of his young players, but
lie said today the debut of Al Demaree,
the Southern League star, on the
mound against Boston yesterday was
the finest work he had seen done by a
newcomer In 20 years of baseball. It
was Demaree's first appearance for the
locals and. although the . game was
crucial to the extent that winning it
meant cinching the pennant, the
youngster had almost perfect control.
He struck out nine men, allowed seven
lilts, two of which were scratches, gave
only one base on balls and scored a
shutout.
Speculation as to how Demaree
would figure in the world's series, how
ever, is useless, as he only reached
liere on September 4, a week too late
to be eligible.
Tesreau is being groomed particu
larly for "spitball" pitching atralnst
Boston and Mathewson and Marquard
each probably will have a chance to
atart one of the big games.

EX-LEAGUER WARMS UP
Southpaw, Wlio Formerly Pitched
for Minneapolis in Old Western
League, Watches Seals and
Beavers Play.
While George Damerel, ex-pitcher,
now a theatrical star, picks the Bos
ton Red Sox to defeat New York in
the coming world's series, the actor
star still believes that the Chicago
Nationals have the greatest assortment
of ballplayers In the country.
"Chance's pitching staff went bad
this year, but to my mind he has the
most wonderful machine in existence,"
declared Southpaw Damerel yesterday
at the ball park, as he warmed up the
old salary arm with the foeals and
Beavers after 12 or U years of idle
ness. 'Arm feels strong as steel," added
Damerel, as he whipped one down the
trroove at Dave Gregg. I ve done a
lot of fishing this year -and casting
has put my wing in good trim."
Damerel Is Scout.
Actor Damerel pitched for Minneap
olis in the old Western League back in
the late '90s when he was 20 years
old, and he and Bill Reldy. manager
of the Seals, held a family reunion
yesterday. The latter was the star
twirler at MlJwauKee lor six years
under Connie Mack. Damerel now
makes his home in Chicago and New
York, but manages to keep close tab
on baseball all over the United States,
in fact, does a scouting Job for one
of the major clubs.
"You hear a lot about this Joe wooa.
of Boston," said he. "Wood undoubt

Wood broke in from Kansas City
against Cleveland in 1908 and when
the wrecking crew got reaay to cart
away the wreckage poor Joe was bad
ly rent. Nobody ever aia anyimns
like that to Johnson. -
"Wood, though, will make New lora
go in the coming series. I figure that
next to Wood and Collins', O'Brien, the
big spitballer, will be Stahl's choice.
He is comparatively new to the
majors, but a veteran pitcher."
Daffy Is Out at Milwaukee.
The thespian brings word of two
shifts of importance in American As
sociation managers. Hugh Duffy has

policy of penuriousness has been insti

the St. Paul club, has resignea ana

"How does it feel to be an actor?"
"Oh, I've been at it so long now I
don't remember the inaugural emo
tions," replied Damerel. "Every now
and then, however, one runs across
some new wrinkle that makes one feel
like the old days with the crowd shout

"Take our opening mgnt nere, lor

"Then I felt complimented mat xney
should come to the show at all, when
they knew they would have to leave

Veaa Greet; Praised.
Mr. Damerel was surprised to meet
so many ex-big leaguers on both Coast
teams, Portland and San Francisco.
"Why. I've seen all these fellows.

"Your brother Vean is certainly a

Despite the rather poor exhibition
yesterday, Mr. Damerel predicts that
the Beavers will have an easy time
with Nick Williams' Colts Monday. He

Beavers' Luck With Sharpe's Men
ITn promising Heretofore, Losing
H Out of 18 Games Played.
While the coming week's Pacific-
Coast League schedule finds Los Angeles
at San Francisco and Sacramento at
Vernon, the greatest interest will focus
In the Oakland-Portland series on the
local lot, for the Commuters are leading
the league by a goodly margin and it
will take a good trimming by the
Beavers to put Vernon and the Angels
back in the running.
Oakland has walloped Portland un
mercifully in the three series down
south, staring the year with five
straight and taking seven of eight on
the last jaunt, but in Portland the go
ing has not been so macadamized. On
the initial trip north in April Sharpe's
men took three in five games, but in
June Portland applied the reverse lever
and beat the visitors four games in
six.
Seven games are on the schedule the
coming week and McCredle is deter
mined to chop off the marginal end, al
though his sympathies are with the
Oaks in the pennant race.
Abies. Christian, Malarkey and KilH
lay will be called upon by Sharpe to
bear the brunt of the work against
Portland because these four have had
the edge on us all season. Southpaw
Abies has won four games in five starts;
Christian four In 'six; Malarkey three
In four and Killilay his only two games.
Klawitter is the sole Beaver to be re
turned with an even break, having won
two and lost two. Koestner has been
walloped six in eight games; Harkness
four in six starts, and Higginbotham
three In five.

We can't win 'em all. San Fran
cisco finally walloped Portland
scrambled the Beavers, too, with their
star moundman, Klawitter, in the box
and. while the beating was confined
to just one Inning, enough walks, hits
and misplays were mixed In to induce
several of the boys to emulate Gen
eral Nogl and "do the Japanese." The
score was 4 to. 2. and broke up Klawit
ter's run of eight straight victories.
With the count 2 to 0 in his favor in
the sixth inning, Klawitter walked the
first two" men, and so interested did
Howard Baker become in the heated
repartee between Klawitter and Um
pire Casey that he forgot to come in
en Howard's bunt, filling the bases.
Zimmerman then punched a grounder
that skidded through Shortstop Ban
croft and on through Centerfielder
Doane. and before the ball could be
relayed in, three men call them
"Faith. Hope and Charity." for iden
tification sake had crossed the plate.
Bump Alda Baaerunners.
Here's where some of the "harl kiri"
Inserted itself. After Fitzgerald had
doubled Zimmerman at home on a re
markable peg on Corhan's fly, Wag
ner drove a liner to deep right center.
Doane and Fitzgerald both went after
the drive, and such a bump! By the
time the ambulance corps had removed
Fitzgerald to the locker-room, Wag
ner was safely camped at third base.
He scored on a wild pitch. That ter
rific collision in the outfield made it a
total of four runs for the inning. Four
proved sufficient.
Bill Rapps also was among the in
jured. Bill suffered a sprained left
ankle trying to corner a high throw,
and the physician who responded to
Umpire McCarthy's appeal, "Are they a
doctor In the audience?" announced,
after consultation, that Bill would be
out of the game for ten days. Butcher
went to first and Krueger to right
field.
Klatwltter allowed only seven hits
in the nine frames, against eight off
Fanning, but his old San Francisco
Nemesis proved too much. The San
Francisco and Vernon Nemesis plays
the same part to Klawitter as the
banana peel, only the highbrows 4ub it
Nemesis. Although possessed of a' rec
ord of 21 victories and 11 defeats, the
Seals have beaten him four times in
seven starts and Vernon on four oc
casions out of six.
Two Tallies Scored.
Portland scored one run In the first
Inning and the other in the third.
In the opening Inning Chadbourne
walked, stole second, hiked to third
on a wild pitch and scored on Rodgers'
sacrifice fly. In the third Inning
Rodgers singled to right, and on a hit-and-run
signal by Fitzgerald, aston
ished the spectators by legging it. all
the way home on Fitzgerald's single
through shortstop.
There were few other features ex
cept that several thousand femininely
curious turned out to see that famous
southpaw heart-breaker, George Dam
erel, warm up in a Beaver road uni
form. The actor star used to pitch
against Bill Reldy in the old West
ern Association, but the two veterans
made up long enough yesterday to
have their pictures taken In soulful
pose.
Del Howard proved to the satisfac
tion of everybody in the eighth inning
that even the wisest old owls can get
careless. Del should have added an
other tally to the Seal total, but he
Jogged home so slowly after Wagner's
near-sacrifice fly that Zimmerman was
flagged at third before he crossed the
rubber. Of course the run didn't count,
although the official scorer thought it
did for a minute and clanged thegong.

tery and fielding errors, and a fielder's

a base on balls and Johnson beat out a
bunt. Williams was forced at third on
Moeller's grounder. Foster forced
Moeller at second, Barry to Collins. In
trying for a double play, Collins threw
wild and Johnson scored the winning
run.
Groom pitched the first nine innings
for Washington. Twice, with the bases,
filled, scoring was prevented by double
plays and in the seventh, with the
bases filled and one out, the home team
scored on an out.
Four hits and an error in the ninth
enabled Philadelphia to tie the score.
Johnson, who took Groom's place in
the tenth inning, was hit harder than
Plank, but brilliant fielding by Foster
and McBride prevented scoring.
Misplays Cause Loss.
Plank, a veteran of 12 seasons, out
pitched both of his younger opponents,
the majority of Washington's runs
being due to battery and fielding mis
plays. Score:
