Muller, Deisel, Anderson and Hupp were sent across the plate and landed the game for the local team. Score S-6. If it is a divergence of opinion that "makes the excitement of horse racing, it is uncertainty that gives life to base ball; and -uncertainty was what the Port land, fans had in the earlier part of the game. The game was not a model exhibition of baseball. Tacoma made many had er rors and Portland a few; Whltbeckwas touched up for a string of hits and Johnson fared but little better. But when Tacoma commenced soaring skyward and Portland started its run-getting, the ex citement ran high and the grandstand shook so that the official scorer could not -6teady himself long enough to chalk up the hits and errors, and the press rep resentatives' notes looked like earth quake recorders. Tacoma Started Ont Strong. Tacoma started out strong and at the end of the first two innings had a pair of deuces on the score board to their credit These were made oft five hits, including two doubles, .an error by Deisel, "which opened the game, and a pass. In 4he third and fourth a pair of aces were added to the hand on the board but this grand total of six was the extent of the Tigers' happiness. Meanwhile Portland had drawn another two deuces from the deck. In the third and fourth innings. The first was made by Anderson getting a base on balls and IHupp following with the fluklest kind of a home run. He sent the ball out to center field, where it should have been handled in time to havo kept him from passing the Eecond station, but Letcher was slowness personified and did not get after the ball until it was out in the Immediate vicinity of the score board. The second two were made without the assistance of a single bit. Errors by Johnson, McCarthy and Hutchinson and a baso on balls being responsible for both of them. Portland Wins fa the Sixth. The big event came off in the last part of the sixth. Max Muller started out by putting the ball In centor field for a ,safe hit. Letcher handled it In poor form and Muller traveled around to third. "Pretzel" Deisel followed with a hit that brought Max across the rubber. Van Buren came next and put tho ball in Pitcher Johnson's hands, who in turn threw to McCarthy In an endeavor to set Deisel at second but the old re liable failed and Jacob went to third. Johnson, much disgusted at his support. Issued a pass to Anderson and filled the bases. Amid cries for a home run, Hupp came to the bat. He sent the ball along the- line to the first baso and Swindells put bim out, and Deisel came in and tied the score. "Weed's long fly to left brought In Van Buren, and Anderson came home on a hit by Mahaffey. Mahaffey was caught at second. After that both teams settled down to good ball playing, and there was nothln' doln' in the line of run-getting for tho remainder of the game. Muller was back In the game again yesterday, but in the seventh inning he caught his bad ankle under the bag in attempting to steal third and had to be carried oft of the field. Engle took his place In loft field. Van Buren's running backhanded, left handed catch of Hutchinson's long fly to center field -was tho fielding feature of the game. Thursday's postponed game -will be played this afternoon (weather permitting) and if tho smiling, good-natured Jay Goul Andrews cannot shake the hard luck (from Mb bunch, the Tacoma Tlg'ers will leave tomorrow night with about five straight defeats at the hands of the Webfeet, and a running string of ten dofeata "His Chickens" Mr. Fisher is suffering from a severe Injury and may be out of tho game for several weeks to come.

OLD RECORDS UNCHANGED MANY XDW -MARKS "WILL NOT STAND AS OFFICIAL. Athletic Statistics in Northwest Of ten Roughly Handled By Ambl tlonx Performer A List. Record-broaklns, or so-called record breaking, has degenerated Into a farce In athletic circles throughout the Pacific Northwest. Every time an athlete makes fast time or good distanco in field meets of any kind, his admirers go wild and the newspapers of his locality tell In start ling headlines of a wonderful feat for which a new Northwest record has been allowed. Particularly is this true at the University of Washington, whore records are handed out with: a rapidity that Is, In deed, astonishing. The University of "Washington athletic team has Just re turned from a tour of the Inland Em pire, and the Seattle newspapers aro full of tho wonderful performances and ex cellent records made by certain repre sentatives of tho "windy "varsity."

C. track, In tho Oregon-Multnomah games a year ago, and are unquestionably cor rect. Kuykcndall's record of 23 seconds was made on the M. A. A. C. track In 1S93, and was equaled by Payne in tho recent Oregon-Multnomah meet. The lat ter's record cannot stand, however, as Ills lane was 18 inches short. Krucgol's time, 4:38 1-5 for the mile run. Is prob ably correct, as are the 100-yard records of Higglns, Caulkins and Pearson. Tho latter, and Chestnut, another Washing ton man, have been credited with "even lime" In tho 100-yard dash, but there Is no likelihood that such figures are cor rect. Chestnut has been beaten time and again In 0:10 3-5, and disinterested parties who held watches on Pearson In his alleged 10-second runs, say that he cannot beat 0:10 1-5 under the best of circumstances. BEARS GET VENTURESOME. They Wander Into Civilized Quar tern and Meet Death. Bears are becoming numerous of late In the country back of Vancouver, and, hav ing a tendency to prey on the calves and pigs of the farmers, are not welcome vis itors. It is said that they havo come in from tho region about Mount Adams, fol lowing a range of hills. They have prob ably heard, that the Maza,mas Intend storming Mount Adams this Summer, and have concluded that they would emigrate for a season. A short time ago a big bear walked into tho farmyard at a farm a few miles back of 'Vancouver, took a vlg weighing 150 pounds In his arms and toddled off toward the brush with it. The squeals ef the frightened porker aroused the farmer, who set his two dogs on the bear, which, however, paid no attention to them, but occasionally took a bito out of the pig, as a boy might out of an apple. Tho farmer summoned his neighbors, and they gave chase to the bear, and as he could not travel very fast with a pig in his arms, they 6O0n overtook him. MOUNT ANGEL COLLEGE BASEBALL CLUB. C. Armstronr, r. f. J. Hunt, s. a. Then he threw down the pig and faced the men. One man "'pulled the trigger on him, but the gun missed fire and the bear was aboutto get him, but at tha second attempt the gun Went off. Tho bullet struck him Just In the white spot which bears have on their chst, and tore away half his heart, passing out through hie back. The strong vitality of the brute wa"s shown by his running for half a mile after-receiving this mortal wound. Hearing of the presence of these bears, Thomas Honeyman and Arthur Emmons went over to Vancouver a few days ago to enjoy the sport of hunting them. The Honeyman brothers have a number of veteran bear dogs over In that section. and, taking these along, they soon got on 1 tne trail or a line, full-grown bear, and. after chasing him for five miles, ehot him. He measured a little over 6 feet from tip to tip. was as fat as a pig, and his fur wag In splendid condition. They know where there are several more bears rang ing In that section, among them an old she bear with two cubs. When the Messrs. Honeyman have leis ure, they will take a ehy at these, and they also are keeping a lookout on sev eral bears which have come over the mountains from tne 'Nehalem country and aro roaming the hills only a few mllca west of this city.

IN Great Interest la Tnltcn by Experi enced Horsemen la the Amateur Snort Notes of Korae World. .r The weather of Saturday, which caused the postponement of the meet of tho Port land Hunt Club, made the racing men of the city feel as if they had taken the wrong end of a 20-to-l shot. It was not that they expected that any records would be. broken, or any bets would be made excepting that Lazarus could not clear all the barricades without kicking a fern but they wanted to see some clear ama teur heats, and they were sorely disap pointed when the meet was declared off for one week. The Interest taken in the meet, by the way, shows that the owners and managers of the big racing stables J recognize the fact that amateur racing: contains instruction a3 well as sport. Of course. It Is not likely that there will be LEAPING BARRICADE. any Tod Sloans, on the runners, but, as a horsemen said yesterday, it is possible, for winners of fast mile heats to pick up a few points from the work of men who drive for pleasure only on the road and t for a cup on the track; also that amateur racing never lacks excitement, and no meet is without Its sport. If hi3 opinion Is that of all horsemen, there Is plenty of sport in store for Portland. The Hunt Club will haye lis meet on the 7th, and the Riverside Driving- Club on the 14th. As there Is considerable rivalry between the owners of 'fiorses entered for both meets, spirited contests may be expected.

Upon going- on the field Captain Henter was informed that Pacific University wished to add the discus throw to the or der of events. The Ncwberg bo5'3 object ed to this, as they had never practiced with the dl3cus, and they believed that adding such an event would give Forest Grove on unfair advantage. Captain Heater steadily refused to allow the discus throw to be included, and Manager Gib son, of Forest Grove, declared that his team would not participate In the meet, unless the disputed evnt be Included.

It Is thus they maintain pulltlcal Influence sufficient to prevent a prosecuting attorney from do ing his duty. Will the respectable peo ple show an equal degree of Interest In tho election today?

It is interesting to the property-owners who were obliged to pay for some of tha worthless but expensive street improve ments and badly plarmed sewers, con structed under the supervision of the fusion candidate for City Engineer when he was Superintendent of Streets, r to bo told of his "fitness for the office." Tho first Improvement of Third street and Washington street with bituminous pav ing are notable cases. Tho Holladay-avenue sewer system is another Instance. Many thousand feet of sewers outside of tho district and un taxed have had to be run into this main because Nature will not admit of it being run anywhere else. "Skill and experi ence" were factors In "these engineering problems" of the city whjch were demon strated to be lacking at 'that time.

"resistances of pipes," "forces of water." etc., dug out of some engineering work for the occasion, ara intended to mislead. A TAXPAYER. When weak weary and worn out.
