THE OREGON DAILY JOURNAL. PORTLAND, MQNDAY EVENING, AUGUST M. 190. JOURNAL'S NWS OF SPORTING EVENTS MINERS' HANDICAP AT IRVINGTON TOMORROW THIELMAN BLANKS THE ANGELS TENNIS CHAMPIONSHIP ON. THIELMAN PITCHES SHUT-OUT CAME UKB WAS THE OOODB I1IT1U1T AWO IT WAS AU OWT WITB ID AISILS SO TAB AS KUHS WERE ooionns stoby or rum Portland . Los Angeles 0. Thlelman and Steel man; Newton and Spies. Jacob Vhleluian waa hlmaelf yester day afternoon and through bis own brilliant work pitched the Browns to victory and the Angela to a whitewash. PYom the standpoint of a 'Portland fan the same waa a good one, but Judging from the standard of flrat claas baee-' ball, the contest waa decidedly ragged en the visitors' part. Aside from the Angela' mishaps, which amounted to more than the "tackhammer" artist gave them credit for, the splendid pitch ing of Thlelman waa sufficient to enable the locals to carry off the honors. Thlelman waa never In better form. and waa a complete mystery to the An-1 gellc ones from the land of oranges ana flowers. They swung their cuts little heads off trying to locate Jacob's offer ings, but their efforts were useless, as the "Woggls Bug" had them In his power and It waa all off early In the gams. The locals played In much better form than on Saturday and presented an ex hibition thst waa worth going miles to see The fielding wss clean save a bad throw of Thlelman'a In the fifth Inning. After dropping a bad toss of Hurley's in an attempt to catch Ross at first, Jake rolled the ball to Beck, but the latter wasn't looking and the Spalding took a romp to the weeds behind third, allowing the fleet Ross to reach aecond In time. Jake settled down after this performance and simply faded the Be raphe awsy. In the eighth inning Portland was given a sears when Spies hit over the third cueblon for a double and was ad vanced by Newton's sacrifice. Bernard looked dangerous, so Jake Issued him a dsss at once. Flood approached the plate looking for trouble, and after call ing down Umpire McCarthy for declar ing a strike on him that didn't look good the captain was promptly fanned to the queens taste. The Dest mat Judson Smith could do was to hit a fly to the field, ending the best chance that the visitors had for scoring. Portland's runs came In the easiest fashion In the second Inning. A few bunts, four dinky hits and a platter full of errors gave the Browns three runs. Newton and Chase couldn't bang on to the ball at all. letting It slip away from them on every occasion. This ended the scoring until the seventh, when a hit and an error by Cravnth gave Port land another rally., The fielding of the locals was above par. The score PORTLAND. AB. R. H. PO. A.

DIAMOND GLISTENINGS No matter how determined the effort may be on the part of the management to bolster up the batting and fielding averages of certain favorite playsrs, to the disparagement of others, ths trick will not work, because ballplayers in this city will havs to deliver the goods on ths diamond as wall as In ths score book. Whsra Hurley got ths two hits yes terdsy Is a mystery. Eliminate fair ness from ths game and nothing remains for ths fan to witness, It Is Just and fair to give a man all that Is coming to him, but to give him hits when hs doesn't earn them and not give him errors when he commits blun ders is something that Portland will not stand for. A square deal la all that Is required. Jake Thlelman was st his bast yester day and when hs Is there Is nothing to It but Portland, if his team mates be have themselves. Hsl Chase made a splendid running catch of a foul near the bleachers yes terday. In making the catch thla clever youngster had to tsar into the crowd which occupied seats on ths ground In front of ths bleacher fenca The lads was greeted by applause for his feat The crowd kept up the demonstration un til he had satisfied their demand for the removal of his top piece. Hurley gets two hits yesterday while Castro Is only glvsn oredlt for one. The ball hit by Castro to Toman was as much of a hit as ths second one se cured by Hurley, but of course there Is no discrimination. Doctor Jud Smith's work at ths third corner yesterday was of ths apple pis order. Jud was there like a duck on every play. Doc Newton's support in that second inning was somewhat similar to that ac corded Hastings by Portland on Sat urday. Hastings suffered a severe cut on his left wrist yesterday by a collision with a soda pop peddler. One of ths bottles broke and cut ths pitcher so that It was necessary to havs a physician Saw ths wound. "Hssty" will be out of the game for a week. Hurley went Into a trance after reach ing first, after striking out and Splee muffed the ball and waa easily caught off the bag. CAN RENDER AID IN CASE OE FIRE NVESTIGATION WITH W OF SECUKING REDUCTION SUHANCE HA TBS BHOWB SEATTLE, TACOMA ABB IB- LAND COUPLINGS ABB ALIKE (Special Dispatch to The Journal.) Seattle. Wash., Aug. 12. To learn what northwestern cities are In a post, tlon to aid each other In the event of great fires was ths subject of Investiga tion on ths part of City Engineer Thomson, and in his report to Mayor Balllngsr hs says that Portland. Seattle, Tacoma, Ballard and Everett fire appa ratus Is so nsarly alike aa to be Inter changeable, and that the threads of firs hydrants In these places are tdeng oal. The Inquiry waa undertaken with the object of securing reductions in In surance rates. The city engineer says: "In ths Baltimore firs several million dollars' worth of property was reported to have been lost from ths feet that the coupling threads on ths hydrants and hose differed materially from thoae of the neighboring cities. For this reason, engines and hoss shipped to Baltimore by her slstsr cities were rendered use less and blocks which could havs been surrounded by this outside apparatus and thus saved were simply abandoned to their fats snd the apparatus shipped back home again. "Your rwquest to ms was to discover whether or not ths coast cities were In the condition of Baltimore and her neighbors. i found no opportunity of properly obtaining the desired Information until this week, while In Portland. Mr. A. O. Long of that city la ths largsst dealer In fire department supplies In this part of ths country, and attempts to keep on hand patterns of all ths various connec tions. He very courteously assisted me In searching through and comparing the threads of msny different couplings. Our sssrch both grestly surprised snd plessed us. Owing to prepsratlons for moving, all the patterns could not be found, but the following racts were at- veloped: Can Bslp One Another. .

The Aberdeen couplings sre nearly Identical with the Seattle couplings, snu probably - could be used In connection therewith. - .. "The Belllnghsm. Mt.

"The Chehalls coupling ws could not find, though I havs been told that it will not msts with the centrsna. "I did not have time to make a fur ther examination and comparison. "If the similarity of thread In ths couplings of Seattle, Portland. Tacoma, Ballard and Everett results from the foresight of our pioneer volunteer chief tains they sre entitled to especial praise. "The showing made In this neighbor hood Is remarkably good. I believe that every fire chief In tha state would be found anxious to aid In securing uni form couplings throughout. With their co-operation, the result would be ob tained at but little sxpsnss and with but little lnconvenlenca I am not sure but that the public welfare Is so con nected with this matter that atate legis lation and control are Justlflabls."

SOON BE- THAT HELD OBT ABOUT 880 POUNDS AB ACHE BAIN WOULD BO VAST AMOUNT OF GOOD. (Special Bispatch to The Journal.) Puyallup. Wash., Aug. tl. Ths hop plcklng season Is nsar at. hand and or ders from pickers for the Puyallup fields have been placed at tha city free employment bureau In Tacoma. Pick lag will begin in many yards about September 6 and in most of the yards about a week later. Two weeks ago it was estimated, by men In position to know, that the aver age yield west of the Cascades in west ern Washington, would fall short about 260 pounds to the acre. It Is now be lieved thst the yield will even be shorter than that, owing to the con tinuous dry weather. In some yards in the upper White river country a heavy rain would do a vast amount of good, even now, for the hops sre not nearly so far along aa those In the Puyallup valley or around Chehalls. There are some yards around Auburn which look as if they would yield a full crop. They happen to be located In ths valley along Green river and have received sufficient moisture to en able the vines to branch out as they ought and consequently bear more fruit. Owing to the scarcity of hops in ths country ths growers stand a good, show to get a high price this fall. Hop buy ers havs already become very reluctant about saying what hops are worth and are working early and late making con tracts with growers st from 17c to 2.1c, while the market price Is sailing up ward toward the 2S-eent mark.

AT THE THEATRES "A HUNAWAT MATCH." There's no mistaking the Immense fsvor with which "A Runaway Match" was received at Cordray'a theatre yee terday. The houss was crowded to the doors st both performances. The farce Itself has a oonslstsnt and coherent plot, complicated situations and clearly de fined characters. Ths complications are excruciatingly funny snd they are told by witty and unusually humorous lines. Ths whole show Is neat, clean and clever. A father wants to wed the daughter and his son is engaged to the widow of the ssme family. During the course of ths story, ths son stssls away the father's fiance, and ths father wins ths affeotlons of, the charming widow. These together with a very funny hotel clerk, a peculiar village constable and an I rats landlady contrive to create an amount of fun greatly rsjlshsd by the audience. . Miss Claire Washington as ths sly widow revealed a comedy strength of a very high order and enacted a rather trying role In a completely aoceptable manner. Miss Myrtle Bunn as the sweet and wlnsoms daughtsr tired of school and anxious to marry sysn an old man, waa more than clever. She is a young soubretts of ability and her speclaltlea were excellent. Miss Myers played the Irascible landlady of the vil lage Inn. Her role was rather a thank less one, but she played It with Intel ligence and spirit. Walfred Wilson snd Jack Prentice played father and son re spectively and bora ths principal bur den of ths fun making In a manner en tirely acceptable. Bd Perry played the man of all work about the hotel In a vary humorous manner. He haa a low comedy part and mads It stand out very prominently. His monologue In the second act la capitally dona Owen Carr tha constable was played by Frank Ap pleton and hs did It full Justice. The specialty of Appleton and Perry In ths third act of ths rapid-fire arder was successful from start to finish. Col-dray's nsw orchestra gave great satisfaction. The performance will be repeated tonight, and every night this week with a matinee Saturday. Great. Interest was manifested in ths prhte ritlclsm contest snd the acheme bids fair to meet with success. Ths prlts of 116 for the beet criticism of the per formance will be awarded next Saturday night.
