TEAM IN LEAGUE
Portland Batters Terror to

-Clubs.
LOS ANGELES IS SECOND
Oakland Third and San Francisco
Last Tom Maddcn's Great Stick
Work Averages of All
Players In League.
slotting averages for the entire league
liave been compiled by The Oregonian,
Including last Sunday's games, and show
that Portland Is leading the league.
McCredle's bunch as a team has a bat
ting average of .266, while their nearest
rival In team batting Is the Los Angeles
club, with an average of .250. Oakland Is
third and San Francisco winds up at the
tall end In this department. The Seals,
however, make up whatever they may
lack In the hitting department with their
baserunning. In which lino they have a
nice lead over the other clubs. The San
Francisco club is without a single .300
hitter, for Williams and Melcholr. their
two best batters, have suffered
heavily during the past week on
account of the fine work of the Portland
pitchers. The averages compiled below
Include all the league games up to and
Including the Iecoratlon day double-headers.
The premier batsman of the league Is
Slattcry, the heavy-hitting Oakland
catcher, who continues to clout the sphere
for better than .400. Koestncr, the Angel
twlrler, has an average a few points bet
ter than Slattery's, but he has not par
ticipated In nearly as many games. Tom
Madden, Portland's hard and most timely
hitting backstop. Is second to Slattery
among the regulars, and has the splendid
average of .345 to his credit up to Sat
urday's contest. Easterly, the Seraphic
catcher, is another player who Is num
bered among the select circle of sluggers.
After Easterly and Oakes, who Is an
other Angel In the .300 class, comes Man
nger McCredie, Jack Ryan and "Count
Tamale" Bassey, all of whom are ripping
the cover off the Spalding in the most
approved manner. Heine Heitmuller and
Dolly Gray are aiso among the premiers.
Hal Danzig and Tom Raftery. who were,
up to a short time ago, numbered among
the .300 hitters, have slumped and are
now batting around .280, but say they
will not be there long, for each expects
to fatten up shortly and regain the ranks
of the sluggers.
Phil Cooney, Portland's diminutive
shortstop, has made the most remarkable
showing of any of the players In Lie bat
ting department. When Portland; came
home four weeks ago, Cooney was cred
ited with an average of .125: not a very
high mark, to be sure, but when the fact
is known that he has Increased this to
.190 since he has been at home. It is a
remarkable showing. The averages are

Incidentally Multnomah and Varsity
11 Break Even In Two-Good Games.
The University of Oregon and Multno
mah Amateur Athletic Club teams played
a double-header on the Vaughn-street
grounds yesterday afternoon, and broke
even, each winning a victory. In the
first game Multnomah played an excep
tionally brilliant game, and with the
splendid pitching of Fred DeNeffe, the
former Oregon twirler, won handily by a
2 to 0 score. Oregon was helpless before
the former Eugene pitcher, and the field
ing of. his support prevented the visitors
from getting within hailing distance of
the register.
In the second game Ed Morris went
against the collegians and his shoots were
found at timely intervals, which resulted
in Oregon gaining the ascendancy by a 4
to 1 score. Several fine plays were
thrown into the matinee and a good
crowd assembled to see the speedy var
sity and the clubmen In action. Pearl
Casey, captain and second baseman of
the Portland Pacifio Coast League team,
officiated as umpire, and made Jack
O'Connell, Bull Perrine. "'Slats'" Davis
and all the others look like amateurs.
He has it on "Silk" O'Laughlin as the
real article In the shape of a diamond
autocrat, and the only reason he might
fail to make a good umpire is that his
voice needs cultivating.
KEEME'S COLT IS FIRST
CELT TOS THE BROOKLYN
HANDICAP WITH EASE.
Cheered on to Victory by Crowd of
25,000 at Gravesend Breaks
Track Record.
NEW YORK, June 1. Cheered by more
than 25,000 persons, Celt, a S-year-old
colt, bearing the popular colors of James
R. Keene, won the 22d running of the
Brooklyn handicap at the Gravesend race
track today. He did It easily, but at
the same time made a new record for
the race and the Gravesend track, step
ping the distance, one mile and a quar
ter, in 2:04 2-5. Fair Play, August Bel
mont's colt, which ran a grand race
agaijist Colin on Saturday In the Belmont
stakes, was second and Master Robert
was third. The Gravesend course was
backed with people' eager to see the run
ning of the handicap.
When the bugle sounded for the race
there was a sound of applause for the
favorite Keene colors as Celt came from
the paddock to the post. Ridden by Not-
ter, he cantered past the grandstand,
looking the winner that he proved to be.
At the start he was second to get away.
but after the first half mile he led his
field and from that time to the finish he
was never in danger, winning with the
greatest of ease in new record time for
the race and tne course over wnicn. it
was run.
As he came down the stretch well
ahead and almost eased up by his Jockey,
a great cheer went up from the throng
in the grandstand and on the lawns.
The great Colin and his brother In
blood, Celt, both sons of Commando, have
won such Impressive victories last year
and this that the people have come to
the point of almost idolijslng them, and
they have done much to make Mr.
Keene's white with the blue polka dots
the most popular colors of the day and
perhaps even in the history of American
racing.
Colin, by winning the Belmont stakes
on Saturday, and Celt's victory in the
handicap today, add J40.000 to Mr.
Keene's stake winnings in two consecu
tlve days.
Six Furlong Rose Hon won. Berry Maid
second King Cobalt third. Time 1:10.

DAZED BY BICYCLE FALL
Oregon City Iiad Acts in Strange
Manner After Accident.
' OREGON CTTT. Or., June 1. Harry
McClure, office boy for the Willamette
Pulp & Paper Co., sustained severe in
juries today by a fall from a blcyeUe
while coming down Singer Hill. His
wheel struck a telephone pole and the
boy was cut behind theear'and over
one eye. In a dazed condition he walked
down to Frank Busch's store, forgetting
his bicycle, and asked for some screws,
having an order from the mill. His be
havior was strange and he remarked
that he had been held up. but that the
highwaymen did not get his watch. The
boy was placed in the care of the com
pany's,physlcian and taken home, and he
will probably be all right in a ,few days.

lios Angeles Arrives This Morning
for Six Games With Locals.
Pernoll to Work in Open
. ing Engagement.
BT W. J. PETRAIJf.
Captain Frank Dillon and the rest of
Hen Berry's league leaders -will arrive In
Portland this morning, and on the
Vaughn-street lot this afternoon the
struggle between Los Angeles and Port
land tor first place will be inaugurated.
The opening game against Los Angeles
should result in Portland gaining the pre
mier position for the first time this sea
son. All that is necessary for McCredle's
men to do to accomplish this is to van
quish the Dillon tribe in the first contest
of the series, after which it can be said
that Portland has occupied every position
In the race. To climb from last place af
ter losing seven straight games at the
start certainly is going some, and the se
cret of the success of the Portland team
lies In the fact that it is the premier
batting club of the league.
It is practicaiy a cinch that McCredie
will work Pernoll today and then again
about Saturday or Sunday. Los Angeles
seems helpless against left-handed pitch
ers, for Pernoll has pitched four games
against that club this season and won
all of them, while Hopkins of Oakland
has nearly duplicated this trick, for he
has lost but one to the Southern host.
The Angel band is a hard nut for any
club , to crack, and its performances
against the Seals in the two series played
so far indicate that it has as much on
the Bay City contingent as has the Port
land team. In the series between Port
land and San Francisco .the McCredie
forces have taken 13 out of the last 50
engagements with the Mohler outfit.
Pretty good, huh?
On the last appearance of the Dillon
tribe in our midst only three of the
six regularly scheduled matinees were
pulled off, rain preventing the others.
To the large amusement of the fans
the home guard annexed the entire
trio, and a few of the rapidly en
thusiastic ones figure the Portlanders to
make a clean sweep of the series which
la to be inaugurated this afternoon.
The wiseacres have it all doped out this
way: Pernoll is to win both his games.
and likewise Bobby Groom, and Kinsella
and Garrett can each be depended upon
to cop the money in the games in which
they work. Looks mighty good on paper,
but the Los Angeles bunch may punc
ture the bubble, for Dillon, Brashear,
Oakes, Ellis. "Dolly" Gray. Hosp, Ran
dolph and the rest of the lads from the
orange belt are by no means weaklings
in any department. ;
Today's game will start at the usual
hour, 3:30 P. M.. and a recordbreaking
Tuesday crowd will be out to welcome
the return of the Angels and to watch
the Portland boys take the lead away
from them.

TO QUIT THE RING
BATTLER WILL GET 3LRRIED
AXD SETTLE DOWX.,
Won by Portland Girl, He-Will Re
tire to His Ranch After Battle
With Gans.
Battling Nelson, ' tha ex-champion
featherweight boxer of the world, and
who Is scheduled to engage Joe Gans in
a 45-round battle at Colma, Cal., on July
4, Is in Portland on his way to Califor
nia. While In Seattle the "Battler" was
prevailed upon by Sullivan & Consldtne
to appear in a limited engagement on
their vaudeville circuit, and will be seen
each night this week In a three-round
sparring exhibition at the Star Theater.
The Hegewisch lad announces that if
certain thlng3 come to pass as he de
sires, the coming bout with Gans will be
his last ring engagement. While Nelson
was shy about giving the reason for his
proposed retirement, the admission was
tlnally secured from the little fellow that
he Is engaged to be married. He was
rather indefinite in the manner In which
he referred to the affaire de coeur. but It
is a safe bet that a certain Portland
young lady will, in the very near future,
become Mrs. Battling Nelson, of Liver
more. Cal., where the doughty knight of
the ring has a splendid ranch, consisting
of 85 acres.
Referring to the girl who has won his
affections, and answering a direct ques
tion as to the rumor of his engagement.
Nelson said:
"Well. I don't know how her folks will
feel about it. but as far as I am con
cerned it is a go. and I (here he hesi
tated before continuing) beliove she will
be willing. I tell you. If I get her It
will be 'curtains for this fighting game,
for I have a ranch at Llvermijre and
somethilng besides which will keep us
very well provided for for many a long
day. I tell you. she Is the prettiest, finest

I first met her I called it off with all this
rough stuff. She is a Portland girl, and
her name is Rena Schuh, and say. what
do you think? She was born on the
Fourth of July, the American Independ
ence day. and I was born on June 5. the
Independence day of Denmark. Isn't
that a strange coincidence? Wait till
you see her. I'll bet you a new bonnet
right now that you say she is the pret
tiest you ever saw," concluded the little
boxer, enthusiastically.
Miss Schuh admitted that she admired
the Battler very much, but further than
that refused to- discuss the matter. Ac
companied by her younger brother, she
attended the performance at the Star
Theater last night.
Nelson says he is confident that he will
be able to defeat Joe Gans on July 4. He
believes that the colored man has gone
back, and that he will be able to defeat
the Baltimorean long before the limit of
45 rounds is reached. In reply to Gans'
statement that he expected to win over
Nelson in- 15 rounds, the Dane said the
Deal Gently with
the Bowels Don't be Harsh
Some people say, "Cascarets are too
gentle. I need a strong physic."
The trouble is this : They have taken
harsh physic until their bowels are
calloused.
Nature has caused the bowel linings
to harden to resist the attacks of
harsh pills.
fAnd the bowels fail in their natural
functions while that hardness exists.
,'ln such cases, take Cascarets oftener
one tablet night and morning.
Cascarets won't irritate. They are as
gentle and natural as a laxative food.
Soon the bowel lining grows soft again,
and begins to resume its functions.

DOWAGIAC. Mich., June 1. James
Brlmmingstahl. who was arrested two
weeks ago on the statement by his wife
that he strangled to death David Huff,
who lived with them and who was
afterward suspected by the officers
of seven other murders, was to
day released from custody. It was

stahl was legally married to his
wife and therefore she could not testify

several murders in the West.
Then one Cascaret a day is enough ;
and a little later you need none.
For Cascarets cure the bowels. They
