No, dearies, that wasn't a ball game you saw yesterday afternoon. It was a game they call rlng-around-a-rosy, one o'le cat, or something like that. And you all felt so sorry for little Frankio Gum, who heaved them down the easy way. But don't worry, dearies, Doctor McCredie has held a consultation upon Frankie's case and has prescribed the rest cure. Go out there next fish eating day and you will find Frankle on the bench taking a much-needed rest. "I guess I can put one over," was what Gum said to McCredie. when the man ager asked him to take the mound. It looked for Just five innings as if some one had told Gum something, for what happened in the sixth round, drove most of the male guests of the put-up species to Dutch suds and bad language. The tourists got away with one in the opener. No matter how. Our turn to call,' no one at home, and same for Oak land, hut when It came our next turn, McCredie Introduced himself and the rest of his fellows. He singled. Same for Bassey. A brainstorm was brewing and there were signs of feminine hys teria In the grandstand. Professor Moore poked one of Wright's offering square on the proboscis and the ball visited the left field fence. This planted McCredie and Bassey on Bliss front stoop. Carson walked and Gum kl-hiked one to Van Haltren. Lovett rambled, filling, the decks, but Shlnn's Infield poke morgued Moore. Casey biffed safe, Carson and Lovett. dusted Bliss' front porch, then came Donahue with his three cushion swat that cleared the decks. Manager Mac returned and called off his crowd. Six-1 now, and lots of noise In the grand stand. In the next round Moore stopped one of Wright's twisters with his right tem ple. This caused a switch; Donahue was yanked from third and placed behind the bat and Schimpff went to third. This and Frankle Gum's attack of pollywob blcs In the fifth, gave the visitors a chance to tie the business into a knot. Thry made five. In the seventh Casey walked and Donahue's two-bagger drove him home. One ahead now and that sick at the stomach feeling fled. But It didn't stay put. Not even Squlbb's mix ture would cure it after the eighth be came history. Shinn messed up Bliss grounder and the suicide act made Gum easy. We were beaten with as little trouble as a bluejay would experience h making a lunch off of a grasshopper. In this round our last year's champions played like a lot of school children at a picnic. Anyway Gum is going to take the rest cure. McCredie said he was. The score: PORTLAND. R. 1 1 2 0 1 1 o 1 0 o 0 IB. 1 1 2 2 1 1 o o o 0 PO. s 3 2 S 2 1 1 6 2 3 1 A. 0 O 6 1 0 0 2 O 3 1 0 Itrvett. !...

Al Davis on ballot NO EVIDENCE IS FOUND Foreman of Bridge Construction Gang Establishes Fact of His Good Reputation Proves In nocence of Vagrancy Charge, After a thorough examination on the part of the police department. Harry Col lins, the young man arrested at the Barr Hotel Thursday night and charged with vagrancy, but who was suspected of hav ing been connected with the streetcar hold-up Monday night, when Conductor Nevius was killed and Motorman Hull was wounded, succeeded in establishing that he had been wrongfully suspected and that he bears a good reputation and and Is employed as foreman of a bridge construction gang. EXHIBITION AT THE OAKS Collins easily proved his Innocence of being a vagrant, and also of having any connection with the crime of Monday night. In relating his story Collins said: "I cannot Imagine how the officers came to lmlicate me in this affair. I have been employed by the International Construc tion Company, of Seattle, which has the contract for the construction of the new Grand-avenue bridge across Sullivan's Gulch, since last February. I arrived in Portland during tie latter week in Janu ary of this year. I came here from my home at Auburn, Me., where I was mar ried, but had some trouble with my wife, of which fact I informed the officers when I was arrested. Soon after entering the employ of this company I was promoted to be foreman of the construction gang on this work. Last week we were laid off on account of lack of material, but I am employed now and had no trouble In prov ing this to the officials today. I never carried a revolver in my life, and cannot Imagine where the statement came from to the effect that I had one. A former room-mate of mine may have had one, but of that I do not know, for 1 had not seen it.' Collins Is a well-appearing, gentlemanly mannered yonng fellow, and in stature and build resembles the description given, which unfortunately led to his arrest. J. M. Toomey, proprietor of the Barr Hotel, where Collins was arrested, was very wroth over the manner in which the polioe arrested his guest. He said: "I am running a decent, respectable house, and If the police have any suspicions of any of my guests all they have to do is to come to me and 1 will do all In my power to aid them in their work. The arrest of Collins was an outrage. Had they come to me. I could easily have satisfied them that he was not a vagrant, and further more had no connection with the street car hold-up and murder. Collins has stopped at my house practically ever since he reached Portland, and I intend to sift this arrest to the bottom." Captain of Detectives Bruin, who assist ed Patrolman Graves In making the ar rest, said that the police department has made a large number of arrests similar to the taking into custody of Collins, and that pending an Investigation of his char acter each is charged with vagrancy. "We did not charge Collins with being the murderer," said the captain, "but he an swered the general description and we de cided to have him investigated. When satisfied that he had no connection with the case we allowed him his liberty on his own recognizance, pending a settle ment of the case by Judge Cameron to morrow." i The funeral of Conductor C. L. Nevius, the man who was murdered In the en counter with a highwayman Monday night, was held from the undertaking parlors of J. P. Flnley & Sons yesterday afternoon, and many of his comrades, em ployes of the Portland Railway. Light & Power Company, attended. A number of beautiful floral pieces were sent by friends and the Interment took place at River view cemetery. Pacific Drubs Willamette. PACIFIC UNIVERSITY, Forest Grove. Or., May 31.
