TO JOIN THE NINE
Firat-Baseman Shaffer Left
for San Jose,
TAKES A HEAVY BATWITH HIM
Fonacr Helena Captain Spe&As
Day In Portland and Is Roy
ally "Welcomed Tr tit -Fout
of tae City.
Armed with his "Lizzie," a bat that
was as thick one way as It was long the
other. Charles A. Shaffer, late captain of
the Helena remnants, now first guards
man of the Portland Browns, left last
night for San Jose. This "Lizzie" was
made by special order at the Nlcolal
Bro. Co. factory, and the order for this
bat, which the fans hope will be a fac
tor In bringing the Pacific Coast pen
nant to Portland, was a gift to thla
clever player from John C. Alnsworth,
president of the United States National
Bank. The bat was turned from a piece
of ash that had been seasoned two years.
That was not alL As soon as other fans
heard of the order there was a hot-foot
tvr the planing-milL They saw the good
natured man turn the rough piece of
wood Into the bat. they reverently
touched the virgin wood and made wishes
like children, then laughed like school
boys caught cribbing. In the years to
come, "if the Browns capture the flag
for Portland, these men will tell when
the hoar froitt of ago has whitened their
hair, they helped to select the wood that
made the bat ("Lizzie"), that "Pull-em-up"
Shaffer used that helped to win tho
pennant for Portland.
Shaffer's arrival In Portland yester
day morning was a signal for the gath
ering of the fans. They came from east,
they came from west, they came from
eouth and north; they came from all
over town. They looked him oyer much
as they would have a race horse, then
sold: "He looks good to us." Then
they recounted marvelous stories about
his playing, his slugging with his "Liz
zie" and the laughs he was forever -provoking
during a game. In fact, never was
a ball player made to feel more at home
than this man with tho pearly teeth,
whoso smile made the crowd smile, too.
During -the afternoon Shaffer had a
long consultation with the directors of
the club. He was given a ticket to San
Jose. He was also handed a fileeplng
car ticket. And Shaffer smiled. The
directors smiled, too. Then the firstbase
man began humming, "When Riding in
Me Car, I'm as Happy as a King."
Shaffer was happy. Tho reception ho
received here made him so. and he
promised to play ball better than ever
In Mb life before. To those who know
tho man, however, this promise only
means that he will play his usual game
of ball, which is always as goodjas If not
better than the other fellow.
Shaffer has been playing the National
game since 1900. He Is a native of Sen
ator Quay's state. The breezes that
shifted the dust about the little town of
Bloomsburg. Pa., blow the baseball germ
In his direction. It said: "Tag you're
It," and he has been ever since. When
he graduated from the sand lot, the eyes
of the baseball world were turned to the
catcher. This receiver general for slants
and shoots was king then, and when he
signaled with gnarled and broken fin
gers, tho rooters held their noise. Tho
mask and tho wind-Inflated pad were Just
coming in vogue. Tho catcher looked Ilko
a parrot In a cage, but this did not daunt
Shaffer. He wanted to be a catcher and
he was. In 1S00 he caught on the Dan
ville team In tho Pennsylvania State
League. Like Little Eva. who sometimes
doubles in brass, he played firstbase also
when the player who guarded that station
was "resting." In 1901 he played first
base with WUliamsport, Pa,, but it was
not until he was playing on the initial
sack for Altoona, Pa., did ho show signs
of his hitting and run-getting abilities.
Ho closed the season with this team and
led the league In hitting and base-running.
In 1S33 ho was wearing the uni
form of tho Savanah team. The life of
the league was brief, but It was long
enough for tho fans to take note of his
batting. Tho year 1S94 found him in
the Sucker State as a member of tho
Peoria team of tho Western Association.
While with this team ho was assigned
to tho left garden and closed the season
batting over 300; 1895 again found him
in left field, but with Omaha. Omaha
fluked beforo the season was months
old and he was transferred to Denver
and closed his batting career in the 300
division. In 1896 he was a Texas Leaguer,
playing with Houston, tho town that
captured tho pennant that year. His
batting this year was near the 400 mark.
From Texas to Norfolk, Va., Is a big
Jump, but 1697 found him in that his
torical Southern town. Money Is just as
necessary to make baseball go as It Is
the mare. Norfolk did not havo money
and in conscQuence Shaffer was traded
to tho Paterson team of New Jersey. In
1S9S Shaffer captained and played first
base for tho Cortland Park team In the
Now York State League Tho East was
good, but Shaffer liked Horace Greeley's
advice, so in 1&)9 he was playing with
Cedar Rapids In tho Western Associa
tion. The absence of TJnclo Sam's green
lithographs put this team to tho bad and
Shaffer joined the Toungstown, O., team
in tho Interstate League. Shaffer was a
business man in 1900 and did not ploy.
In 1901 ho was captain of the Rockford,
111., team, and in 1903 he was captain
of tho Helena team. During all these
years he batted always above S00 and
, often led In base-running.

NO MEET WITH NATIONAL GUARD.
Bat Y. M. C. A. "Will Not Abandon
Athletic Contest Proposed.
The board of officers of the Third Regi
ment, O. N. G., last night heard the report
of the athletic committee appointed to
confer with a like committee of the Y. M.
C. A. In regard to the athletic meet pro
posed by the-association. As the date set
by the Y. M. C A. is April 4, the board
decided It would be unwise for the Na
tional Guard to enter the contest, as there
would not bo sufficient time for training
before the event. The militia is also very
busy drilling at this season of the year
in order to be In good shape should they
be ordered to attend the reorganization at
Salt Lake City, which the War Depart
ment contemplates.
M. M. Rlngler, of the association, an'
nounced his Intention to hold the meet
regardless of this, however, and. Instead
of the Armory, the Y. M. C. A. gymna
sium will be used for the contests. Med
als and other suitable prizes will be
awarded the successful contestants, and
everything done to make the event a suc
cess. From the following programme an
Idea may be had of the nature of the as
sociation's coming circus:

ing. Band (Sousa's).

PAYNE TO TRAIN HIS MEN.
Oregon Track Captain Will Act as
Reprular Trnlner.
UNIVERSITY OF OREGON, March 3.
(Special.) The Athletic Council has de
cided not to employ a regular trainer for
this year'B track teatm. so Captain C. A.
Payne and Physical Director C. A. Bur
den will direct the training. Manager
Earl has received numerous applications
for tho position of trainer, but most of
the applications were from men who de
manded too high a price for their services.
Captain Payne has been a member of the
varsity track team for three years, and Is
one of the fastest middle-distance runners
In tho Northwest. He was captain of the
team that won the state championship
last year, and he thoroughly understands
tho work of training athletes. Manager
Earl expects to arrange meets with Wil
lamette and Pacific Universities, Albany
College. Oregon Agricultural College and
the Multnomah Amateur Athletic Club.
-WILL TRAIN ELSEWHERE.
Jimmy Brltt Decides to ChRnre His
Quarters From Multnomah Clnb.
beginning with today Jimmy Brltt, who
is to fight Jack O'Keefe on Monday night,
will put the finishing touches to his
training at 115 Second street. This was
determined upon yesterday, when tho Call
fornlan learned that not all the directors
of the Multnomah Club were In favor of
his training at the club. As soon as Brltfs
managers learned that a vote of the di
rectors was necessary before the privilege
could be granted, they told the club of
ficials that, rather than cause any em
barrassment, other quarters would be se
cured. The courtesy of the club, was,
however, extended to Brltt.
