They came from, behind yesterday aft
ernoon, did those Tacoma Tigers, out
gamed Ely's Clerks In the last furlong of
a ten-Inning affair and finished, going
away with the score 9 to 7 in their
favor. Thomas, Just to give the local fans
a thrill, permitted the Clerks to locate
his offering In the second inning for two
doubles, a triple and a single, and with
an error at first and a pass to first we
started the matlneo five to the good.
This was enough runs to have won two
games for an ordinary team, but Portland
would have needed a handicap of ten to
have won. Toung Druhot blew up early
in the game, and in the third Inning
he was touched up for a single and a
double, gave a pass to first, wag guilty of
a miscue, and all this, coupled with an
error by Francis, allowed the Tigers to
pet back three of the runs. The little
Southpaw lasted until half of the fifth
Inning wa3 over. Ely waved him to the
bench and Jake Thlelman, who had been
warming up, bowed to the ladies and got
out of the mess without Injury. But
Jake's hour of slaughter was coming. In
the eighth inning the German walked
Thomas. Casey forced him at second.
Then Hannlvan singled, so did Nordyke,
and then Truck Eagan, the red-necked
one, who Is forever winning games for
Tacoma when they are most needed,
slammed out a ripping two-bagger, which
cleaned the bases.
Tacoma made a determined effort to tie
the score right here, but a fast play from
Castro to Francis killed off Eagan. Steel
man nailed Lynch as ho was trying to
steal second, and for a short time it
looked as if Portland might escape the
short end of the purse. McLaughlin
singled and reached second, when Mc
Creedle, attempting to field the blngle,
sprained his ankle, and he got an extra
base. Castro worked that moth-eaten
old trick of "hide the ball," and as Mc
Laughlin stepped from the bag the South
American jammed the ball into his middle
structure and called Umpire O'Connell's
attention to the play. It was a desperate
try on Castro's part to kill off Tacoma's
chances of tying the score, but it counted
for nothing. Graham blnged out a single.
went to second on Hogan's out and to
third on Steeiman's passed ball. Thomas
practically won his own game by driving
in the tying score with a single.
Portland had a chance in their half of
the ninth. Spencer walked and Nadeau
put him at second with a sacrifice; the
next two were out without a struggle.
Not so with the Tigers In the tenth,
beck's failure to murder Hannlvan start
ed the fireworks. Thlelman fanned Nor
dyke. Then, again, came the mighty
Eagan.
Did he kill the ball?
He did kill the ball!
Was It good for three bags?
It was good for three bags!
Did It roll to the score-board?
It did roll to the score-board!
Did it bring in the winning run?
It did bring in the winning run!
Tes, it was a most marvelous swat
Before Kerby Drennan got It the ball fell
within a foot of the big score-board. Then
came three singles by Lynch, McLaughlin
and Graham. Eagan scored on the first
one. Castro and Francis headed off any
further scores with a double.
Viewing the pnme critically neither side
should have won. for there was more
lax baseball dumped into the engagement
than would be necessary to toss off a
dozen games. Tnen. again, there were
moments of very brilliant baseball. Both
teams broke even on double plays, but
that double play which chased the Clerks
to the club-house in the last chapter was
a corker.. Casey played Steeiman's
sla&hlng bounder perfectly. A second's
delay would have messed the double, but
Casey never faltered. He shot the ball to
Eagan and Eagan to JJordyke, and the
1 lay was so fast that It made one blink.
Talk as you please", when Sheehan is play
ing his game at third Tacoma has the
lastcst Infield in the league. The score:

Doyle Will Join Fisher.
Mique Fisher is authority for the state
ment that Charlie Doyle, Fisher's 1903
centerflelder, who Mique declares held him
up for 5200 when the baseball war was
waxing merry, has wired Fisher that he
will report at Tacoma. Doyle tried to
duck the ex-policeman, but he was award
ed to Fisher by the National committee.
Rather than return to Fisher, Doyle took
the high jumps and landed in Montreal.
Fisher had him benched for a long time,
but of late Doyle has been playing and has
been leading off In the batting. His sud
den determination to rejoin Fisher after
trying repeatedly to buy his release will
surprise his friends. Doyle offered Mique
$100 for his release, but the "Spendthrift
Kid" said nay. Doyle's last offer was
$150, but this also was refused.
California Amateur Shows Up.
Third-Baseman Cartwright, the Califor
nia amateur Imported by Ely, -was at the T
grounds yesterday afternoon. The new
infielder did not don a uniform or do any
work beyond tossing the ball about near
the grandstand. Cartwright, from a brief
glance at him, does not look like a won
der, but he may show up better once he
gets on the field. It Is understood that
Francis will be benched while the ama
teur is tried oat.

Annual Handicap for Multnomah
Club Players Will Begin Soon
The annual handicap tennis tournament
for members of the Multnomah Club will
begin May '23. Its duration will depend

the constitution and by-laws suggested for
the North Pacific International Lawn Ten
nis Association organized ten days ago in
Tacoma, submitted the matter to the
board of directors, which immediately rat
ified It This action was so quickly done
that the new organization is shown to
be a good thing and the tennis clubs of
all the other cities concerned are certain
to do likewise. These are Tacoma and
Seattle, and Victoria and Vancouver, B. C.

TWO TICKETS IN HELD.
Candidates for Municipal Offices Are
Plentiful in Gresham.
GRESHAM. Or.. May 12. (Special.)
Two tickets are now In the field for the
offices to be elected on May 2S, but some
of the candidates are sure to be elected,
because of having been Indorsed by both
factions. At Monday night's meeting,
called by the promoters of the proposed
city government, there was a good rep
resentation of the opposition present at
the appointed hour and they proceeded to
organize, elect a chairman and adjourn
until Wednesday evening. All this was
done in just 30 seconds but In a minute
more the leaders of the municipal move
ment, 11 in number, came into the hall
and then the storm of wrath and recrim
inations broke loose. B. S. Johnson was
chairman of the first meeting, and he left
the hall forthwith, followed by a few, but
the majority of the original crowd, and
all the new arrivals held a caucus and a
row was only averted by Fred G. Conley
again, calling the meeting to order and
explaining Its purpose.
This time the chairman was Hon. George
W. Kenney, and he put things through as
nearly according to programme as the city
sponsors had ordained. The ticket pub
lished yesterday morning In The Orego
nlan was the result but it failed to satisfy
those "ag'in the government," and they
met again yesterday evening and put up
the following-named gentlemen as their
candidates:
Mayor W. H. Hamilton.
Recorder H. L. St. Clair.
Treasurer J. C. Hester.
Marshal B. W. Emery.
Councilmen T. R. Howitt, George W.
Kenney, E. C Lindsey. Charles Merrill,
Sr., John Conley, John N. Clanahan.
Of these gentlemen the following are on
both tickets, with W. H. Hamilton named
for Mayor on the second ticket and Treas
urer on the first. The others are: H. L.
St. Clair, B. W. Emerj T. R. Howitt and
John Conley.
The first ticket is a popular one and
the candidates were named by a majority
of the legal voters of the place. The sec
ond ticket is composed of good men, also,
but the first three are ardent prohibition
ists and the fight is going to be conducted

with the County Clerk.
It is said that Ford Metzger, proprietor
of the only saloon, has agreed to pay a
license of $600 yearly, provided there Is no
other saloon In the place, but It remains
to be seen whether the elected Council wljl
give him that privilege. From the person
nel of the two tickets it is probable that
the saloon element will favor the ticket
nominated on Monday night.

be accomplished to limit the loss. The
fire hydrants had very little pressure,
while there were only two available cis
terns, and the four engines were com
pelled to double on those. The engines
could not have been run out on tho docks
and the water taken from the river, as
the flames leaped 100 feet at a Jump, and
before water could have been reached the
equipment would have had to retire to
keep from being surrounded by the flames.
Dynamite might have been used to ad
vantage to check the course of the fire,
several wooden buildings that, were lost
by the fire serving only as a means of
spreading the fire from one mill to an
other. The new fireboat could Tiave done more
to quench the flames than all the other
fire fighting equipment in the city, as the
riverside was the only practicable point
from which to fight the flames, and this
was impossible for land equipment The
fireboat has already been tested by the
Willamette Iron Works, but has not yet
been turned over to the city.
Horses All Saved.
The horses belonging to the dif
ferent mills were taken to places of
safety shortly after the fire started
and none of them wero lost In the fire.
Bystanders helped to remove several
wagon loads of trunks from the fac
tory of the Multnomah Trunk & Box
Company, but most of the people re
siding near the mills left everything
inside their houses, as the wind was
blowing the fire up and out Into the
river.
The carriage of C L. Schmidt was
struck by Truck 2 at Macadam and
Thomas streets and badly smashed. Mr.
Schmidt was thrown from the car
riage, but was not hurt.
Cars Bring Sightseers.
Fully 3000 people "witnessed the fire.
The GIty & Suburban Company's South
Portland cars pass within a few blocks
of the scene of the conflagration, and
all tha late cars were crowded to the
doors with sightseers. The roaring of
tho flames could be heard for blocks,
and people residing in that part of the
city rushed out on tho streets, clothed
In whatever garment was handiest
Several hundred people witnessed the
fire from Macadam street, but the heat
became so Intense that they wero forced
to climb the hills and get further
away.
An assortment of doors and sashes
worth $15,000 was in the factory of the
Day Lumber Company. This was saved
by being beyond the westward line of the
fire zone.
Rhodope and Cinderella.
San Francisco Call.
Let us not deceive ourselves. The
Hearst boom Is booming. When Rhodope
took a dip in the Nile and left her togs
on the bank an eagle swiped one of her
shoes and, flying away, dropped it before
the King of Egypt. The King picked it
up and declared that the lady whose foot
fitted It should be his tootsy-wootsy and
his Queen. He went forth, shoe in hand,
and when he found her Rhodope got her
shoe back and also a new Easter crown.
Just now the American eagle Is flying
around with Lincoln's boots to find the
man who fits them. Mr. Hearst has an
nounced that he is the man, and exhibits
his feet to prove it. Does anyone suppose
that such a mixture of Rhodope and Cin
derella In politics can be beaten? May
the thought go away and die of stomach
trouble.
Cord Meyer.
New York Evening Post.
Cord Meyer's accession to the chair
manship of the State Democratic Commit
tee seems to be a sort of notification that
Hill Is nqt to dominate Judge Parker, nor
even the management of the party In this
state. Mr. Meyer is so distinctly not a
Hill man that it is impossible to conceive
of him as ever being a Hill man. He is
simply not In that class. His acceptance
of the chairmanship is a guaranty that,
in New York at least, the Democratic
campaign will not be knee-deep in pea
nut shells.
Hope for Bryan.
Des Moines Register.
Mr. Bryan is In his prime. He has
planned to participate actively in ten
Presidential campaigns. The whole fu
ture Is before him. He may not dominate
the coming National Convention at St.
Louis and he may not dominate the next
