BEAVERS ON THEIR WAY HOME McCredle Signs Bill Massey Before Leaving Bay City. SAN FRANCISCO, May 12. (Special.) Before leaving with the Beavers for Portland tonight, Walter McCredle made a deal with the Oakland club by which he has purchased the services of BUI Massey, a substitute outfielder. Massey was secured by Oakland from Omaha, the Oaks trading Buck Francks. He has not been needed, however, and at the present McCredle Is very much In need of an extra man. Bull" Croll. who filled In for the "Judge," and Dunleavy, who has been playing third base, will not accompany the team. Neither was considered a regular man. Word comes from Portland, says Mc Credle, that both Artie Ross and Mott, the third baseman, will Join the team in that city. He expects that he will be able to make a better showing In the future. The San Francisco team will arrive in Portland Tuesday night and will be accompanied by Umpire - George Der rick, who will hold the Indicator for the first games that are played In that city during the 1907 season.

RAILWAY RESTS FROM RING Once Famed Athlete Now at Hood River. IS ANDRE MARC CHRISTOL Ex-Lightweight Champion of the World Tells of Exciting Inci dents of the Palmy Days of His Early Career. HOOD RIVER, Or., May 12. (Special.) Andre Marc Christol. once great ath lete and former lightweight champion wrestler of the world, is at Hood River for his health.

His last engagement was with the Olym pic Athletic Club of San Francisco as instructor, but like others he lost every thing he possessed in the great eartn quake except a vacant . lot where his house once stood and his Gallic accent, which is still working. Christol has just left for Mount Hood settlement, where he will visit his old friend, Martus Du mas, formerly proprietor of a large res taurant in San Franicsco, but now a prosperous apple-grower. Before going he remarked to a crowd of interested hearers at the Mount Hood Hotel: "Yes, I am what you call knocked out. I have what you call ze dyspep. T'ree mont's I spen' in ze open air. I chop ze wood, sleep outdoor. When I come back poof, zere will be nozing to it. Again I will be myself." Was Star In His Day. Battle-scarred and disfigured, Christol is a unique figure to the athletic world of today, and in his time was the as sociate and instructor of wrestlers whose prowess was phenomenal and whose names are still a byword in sporting cir cles. Billy Muldoon, Clarence Whistler, Evan Lewis, Duncan C. Ross, Edwin Bibby and a host of others once deigned to take instruction and profit from his "71 NEW RECORD WAS MADE IN EAST-SIDE STREET RAILWAY EARNINGS J Sunday, and all because of the opening of "TERRACE PARK," Portland's most beauti-' ful and best new residence section. In addition to the service of "Spanton's Special Car" which operated between Second and Yamhill and "Terrace JPark" and which had right of way over all cars, the regular "M-V" cars carried hundreds of visitors and buyers, with the result that it was a regular Fourth of July gathering. The weather man, who is interested in the new addition to the extent of two lots and he bought them favored us with just what we wanted, and made the day an ideal one for our opening. Over 2000 people visited our "blue-ribbon" ad dition and looked over the tract, ate lunch with us under the trees and picked out lots that will soon treble. We had been telling them of our ideal location, splendid soil, close proximity to the city and no argument was necessary to cause them to buy. If you have not seen "TER RACE PARK" we want you to go out today. Just as well have the best you can buy and get it in the. direct eastward growth of the city.

He Is credited with the discovery of Whistler, then an ironmolder in Omaha, and his subsequent training and success. He brought about the first match between Whistler and Moldoon in old Madison Square Garden, New Tork. which lasted eight and a half hours and was finally declared a draw. In the annals of wrestling it is considered a classic. The struggle lasted from S o'clock in the evening until 5:30 the next morning with out either man having gained a fall when the lights were unceremoniously put out. It was said by friends of Whistler the trick was done to save Mul doon, who they claimed was getting the worst of it. Both men made a pot of money, and it was then that they formed the great combination that went on the road, consisting, besides Muldoon and Whistler, of Christol, Jim Pennell and several other noted athletes, who met all comers and made a triumphal tour of the country. After they separated a match was ar ranged by Christol between the former partners, in which Whistler lost and had his shoulder blade broken. When he re covered he tackled the doughty ex-policeman again and this time put him to the mat and won the bout- Shortly after this he went to Australia, where he defeated William Miller in a memorable contest, for which he was banqueted and at which he caught a cold that resulted in his death.

Christol thinks his great pupil was with out a peer, and In emphasizing the point makes a series of gestures more rapid than the famous short-arm Jabs of the once Terrible Terry. Once Wrestled With Bear. From a diary which he has carefully preserved was gleaned the fact that the ex-champion is a foundling, having been found In the streets of Paris and brought up in an institution supported by the church until he was old enough to enter the army, which he did, and served through the Franco-Prussian War. In the encounter he had his collar-bone cut in two with a cutlass, the top part of his left ear went, and he was taken prisoner. When he recovered and was released he came to America, took up acrobatic and athletic work under the Instruction of a fellow-countryman, and Joined him in a trapeze act with Barnum & Bailey. With the great circus he traveled in, many countries, but finally retired from the sawdust arena to devote bis entire time to athletics. During one time in his career he took up a spectacular act in which he boxed and wrestled with a bear. They were per forming at Woods Museum, in Cincinnati. Christol was a little too convivial, hav ing left a party of friends just before the performance, and was unwatchful. The bear managed to get his muzzle loose and tho bout took place in earnest. The audience, at first thinking this part of the act. applauded loudly, and not un til the better part of his other ear was missing did they discover their mistake. A butcher who waa in the audience and had a large knife, then rushed on the stage and put the bear out of business. Since then Christol has confined his wrestling bouts to men, which, he says, has been more remunerative and success ful. When he recuperates he will go to Aberdeen. Wash., as Instructor for the club there. TO SELECT JAMESTOWN TEAM Meet Will Be Held at Seattle , June 22. SEATTLE, Wash., May 12. (Special.)

The annual track meet of the asso ciation, which is to be held here on June 22, will be in the nature of a try-out for the athletes and to give the committee a chance to get a line on the men whom they will send to the big meet at Jamestown. The matterof the eligibility of col lege athletes to represent both their colleges and athletic clubs in the same year was also a subject before the meeting last evening, and in view of the fact that there is considerable misunderstanding existing In regard to the recent ruling of the A.

A which will be held here on the even ing of the big track meet In June. The resignations of President C. C. Holzel and Secretary A. D.

The score at the end of the ninth was 4 to 1, and the large crowd of St. Johns residents who trot ted out to witness the exhibition nearly went wild with enthusiasm. There was plenty of good fast ball playing, the class of ball that the rabid fan will sit and watch for hours. Char lie Moore, the elongated slabster who danced around "Manager McCredie's in field last year, was there with bells when it came to pitching. He had a skldoo sign on the Brews and allowed only three safe hits. Pender, who did the delivery stunt for the Brews, demonstrated to the satisfaction of the audience that he, too, was qualified to occupy the mound. Five hits were made off his delivery, and he is cred ited with eight strike-outs. St. Johns mode three runs in the third. Pender gave two passes, and a pair of errors by Wood allowed both runners to score. The Saints made an other run in the eighth. The Brews made their lone score in the third. BREWS. AB. R. BH. PO. A.
