THE MQB&IKG- OREGOXIAN, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER IP, , 1903. , T0OUTET.CGHAMGE Vigneux Will Remain Man ager of Browns, OFFICIALS OF CLUB SUSTAIN H!M He Is Etce Alleged to Be One of the Best CaicHcr la WboleLeagme lias Certainly Worked Hard to Win. "It's too late In the season to think about changing 'managers. While It is true that Vlgneux's men have had an un accountable slump, the fault may not all be -with the manager. Vigneux is one of the best catchers In the Pacific Coast League. He can play flrst base as well as any man in the league. He is popular -with the local fans, and the grandstand is always with him. Go out to tne grounds any day and you will hear the grand stand aay, 'Sammy would have got tnaf " This statement came from an official of the Portland Baseball Club, so it's about time that the knockers. Including "present company," should take their noise and go away. Vigneux is popular, there's no denying that, but as for him being the best catcher and the rest of it, this offi cial has missed the mark by about ten city blocks. Vigneux i not the best play er in the league, neither is he the worst, but there are so many better than he Is that, while tie is not lost sight of. he is not among the ranking players. This Is not said unkindly, but truth is truth, whether it hits Vigneux or the people who think him "a great player." Vigneux is a good catcher. He lields his position well, throws well to second,, and can cer tainly murder those high, puzzling foul tips, but he cannot hit the ball at critical times, and therefore bis worth as a player is decreased fully one-half. .Vigneux has a fairly good baseball head on his shoul ders and would make a splendid field cap tain. As a manager, however, he falls far short of the ideal. In the flrst place, he gets mixed in his intentions. He is severe when he should be lenient, and lacks firm ness when he ought to use his authority. If he were a better student of human nature he would make a better manager. It has not been Sammy Vlgneux's fault that he has not made a success of manag ing the" Browns. He has had more than his share of hard luck since he left Port land latt Spring with the team. At that time he had ambitions that were two fold. First, it can be said to his credit that he wanted, as badly as he ever want ed anything in his life, to bring a win ning team back to Portland. He wanted to do this because of his love for the game, and he knew If he did that his popularity In Portland would be a fixture. He did not hope for a pennant-winning team, but he did hope for a team that would be a factor In the race for the rag, because he was going into business for himself this "Winter, and he knew that if, through him the city had made a bid foY the Pacific Coast League pennant, it meant thousands of dollars to him in a business way. As it Is, If he Is dropped, by the management hefore the season closes his hopes of becoming a "Portland business man" will receive a serious jolt. It may not keep him from trying his hand at the venture, for the faithful will stickin spite of the knocks, but he will not be the popular "Sammy Vigneux" he would have been had he finished the sea son with his team anywhere in the flrst division. This story of Vlgneux's ambitlons.is told just to show that Vigneux has "been try ing hard to make a winning team out of the Browns. He had almost as much at stake as the business men whose money is financing the team. It Is natural to hiame the work of a baseball team on the manager, and the deal that is being hand ed to Vigneux bythe fans of Portland Is something which ether managers, both great and small, have received since man agers became necessary to baseball teams. In the words of the song, "Everything Falls on Patsy," every fault Is laid at the manager's door. Vigneux Is getting "his." but the cyclone of censure which has fallen on Vigneux would not have been half as harsh had It not have been for that double-headed whitewashing he re ceived at the hands of Pete Lohman's cripples. President Prael has called upon him for an explanation, not only for this game, but for the recent case of dumps which the team seems to be steeped in. Explanations are all right in their way, but when they are necessary it is usually too late. No manager on earth can ex plain why baseball players lose their bat ting eye, but he can explain after it's too late why there is kick of organiza tion and team work, why stupid plays are made, and why players will not do what they are told. The team returns Tuesday next. They meet Seattle for six games and then go over to Seattle for another series of six. When they return home they play 24 games, meeting all of the Southern teams. In all. theyhave about 49 games yet to play. Beginning with today, they are 29 games behind Los AngeleV 18 behind San Francisco, and 12 In the rear of Sacra mento. The Browns would have to win more than half of the remaining games to be a contender for the pennant, and while this was going on the three teams In the first division must suffer a serious losing streak. An even break with Sacramento this week and a .shade the best of the games from Seattle will-put the "team in a position when they return Home for their four weeks' stay to succeed Sacramento in third place. If this is accomplished and the Browns end the season In the first division, local fans will be more than sat isfied. It will be a record worth pointing to. for In order to accomplish this the team will have had to climb out of a deen cellar. In the meantime the fans await vlgneux's explanation. WRINGE WILL QUIT BRITAIN. Lipton'K Skipper Decides to Slake America His Home. NEW YORK, Sept. 9. Captain Wringe, who sailed the Shamrock III in her races against tho Reliance for the America's cup, today announced that he' decided to make this country his home In the future. As a result of this. Sir Thomas mav be obliged to modify his recent statement that he will challenge again, provided he can find a designer. Beside a designer ne will now have to find a suitable skln- per If he still holds to the opinion that Captain Wringe Is the best handler of single-stickers, on the other side.

Herrera, McClelland and All Their Following: Go to Paget Sonnd. Seattle gets . the Herrera-McCIelland fight. Club managers of the Puget Sound city, just as soon as they heard that Portland had put boxing under the ban, began' negotiations for the mill, and the managers of the two principals agreed ". ... . yesterday to pull the battle- off at a date yet to be arranged by the club. Herrera, aicCIelland, Bishop and Mason will move their training quarters to Seat tle either this afternoon or tomorrow. The BIshop-Mulvey gab-fest, while It took on serious features for a time, has ended in a love feast Mulvcy still threatens to follow Bishop to the world's end and in the same breath he says he is willing to take Herrera and McClelland Into the country and give them $1000, just to fight for bis pleasure. Fighters and managers will go to Seattle as Mulvey'j? guests. They will also see the Turner-Selger fight on Friday night, and Mulvey pays the "freight." . SEW FOOTBALL RULES. . Coach Yost Says They Miss Mark Aimed At. Coach Fielding Yost, of the University of Michigan football team, thinks that the new football rules miss the mark at which they were aimed by the Intercol legiate rules committee. Mr. Yost has stated: The rule providing that there snail be seven men in the line of scrimmage between the two 25-yard lines Is Ill-advised, and Trill not tend to ellmiate mass plays, as the committee In tended. It Is between these two marks that all the open play is made anyhow, and permitting the return to the old style of mats formation on reaching the 25-yard line, leaves the game just as it Is. The biggest gains are always made by open plays, anyhow, and every coach alms to uee. them in preference to mass plays. The committee explains that the changes were made to give the spectators an opportu nity to Judge the merits of open and closed formations by using one between the 25-yard line and permitting the other for the last 25 yards to the goal. A better plan would have been to insist that the open style be played throughout one half and the mass play In the other half. Personally I believe that the committee would have accomplished more for the betterment of the game by insisting that six men be in the line of scrimmage at all times. 4 I would clvo more for a team of fighters than for two teams whose members had noth ing but weight and strength to aid them. This was the kind of teams I have had at Michigan for the last two years. Personally I believe that the committee would have accomplished more for the betterment of the game by In sisting that six men be In the line of scrim mage at all times. NEW YORK RIFLEMEN WON.

Manager Vigneux sent Anderson to this city, where the in jured hand, will receive treatment, and Anderson expects to be in the game with Seattle, Tuesday next.

Like many others I carefully, and with great interest read the account In Sun day's Oregonlan of Mrs. Cunningham's restoration to sight That simple recital of a wonderful event cannot have failed to have moved many hearts, and In num erous Instances the inaudible cry mus have risen: Oh, that God would only help me, too." Will you kindly permit a few words from one who thinks she sees another side to this story, a side lying just under the one related, and which Is as Import ant as the woman's faith in God, and must go along with It Perhaps some other may understand the way a little better, and receive an answer to the heart cry. The most pregnant sentence In the de scription of this miracle (?) is the sen tence: "I am ready to go on the table." The whole event was a mental struggle combined with faith In God. If the second eye had simply become blind it Is probable she would quietly have accepted It in a short time. So do we often with unroused spirit accept unpleasant conditions that come into our lives. But this oncoming blindness was accom panled by severe pain. Something must be done to relieve the pain. It was this "something" that proved the crucial point of her faith, not the blindness itself. And in spite of her love and. faith In God sho was afraid to accept that which he sent her with the blindness. Finally, when her trust Jn a loving Father "who d'oeth all things well," rose supreme and all fear of the operation went out of her, wholly and .entirely out behold, there was nothing then to fear. Her ' fear, which meant operation, which meant pain, which" meant blindness, had passed, from heu. The. merciful "power without us which makes for righteousness" (as some call It) God (as others call It) will be equally kind to others as to Mrs. Cunningham If they will simply follow in the same way. The soul often feels blind In trying to solve some of life's problems, the only way It sees being too full of pahi to be thought of as possible. A faith that trusts that this painful way Is not to be feared, and bravely faces It, as she did her ope rating table, will find its trouble dissolve away. CORRESPONDENT. Wagon Runs Over Him.

The Browns batted out a victory in the eighth Inning today, -when, with three men on bases, Vigneux, who had relieved Blake In right field and sent him to third to re place Francis, who was fired out of the game for "sassing" tho umpire, lammed ou a clean three-bagger, that went to the left-field fence and cleaned the bags. It was a big wallop, and the fans nearly yelled their neads off. Thlelman pitched a very effective "game, and, although 12 hits were made off him, they were sin gles, that he kept so well scattered that the Senators could not get a man over the plate until the ninth Inning, when Graham went to the bat for. Brown and worked his way around the circle, saving a shut-out. Thlelman's work was such that only one outfielder had a chance, he doing most of the fielding work himself, by accepting .10 chances, in great shape.
