Hayes ran a truly remarkable race. He was
going smoothly when he passed me. Just before
I was forced to quit. I don't know what hurt
me, unless it was the sunlight and the pound

that he would win, but at that time I did

SAN FRANCISCO, Auir. 5, (Spe
cial ) It was lucky for Portland that
Ote Johnson had on his home-run
clothes today. Otherwise there might
have been o different story to tell than
a Beaver victory by a 15-to-9 score.
. Not only once, but twice did the bls
Swede slln the ball so hard that It
-went straight over the fence and. not
satisfied with that, he wound up the
ninth inning with a two-bagger, to
say nothing of an earlier single. AH
told. Johnson drove home seven of the
runs that were made by his team.
As to the game, there was very much
of It all the way through. When Oscar
Jones tossed his glove benchward after
four runs and eight hits had been
chalked up, the Btavers had Just that
much of a lead. When Ote Johnson
ame along with his first homer and
transferred two base runners and him
self Into tellies, with Slivers Henley
as the objocti.e point of the heavy
smashing, the Beavers annexed so
maay tallies that they looked an abso
lute cinch. But the Seals gradually
drew up until the score stood 8 to 3.
Then Groom got Into his bad habit of
passing men. A -scratch hit In the
eighth, with Cooneys error, let In
three runs, and Garrett replaced Groom.
He wasn't much better and, with the
three walks and Zeider's two-base hit.
the tide was turned and the Seals were
leading. 9 to 8.
Things looked dismal for McCredle,
but Johnson"s home run off Henley
gave them a tied score and turned the
tide. That homer disgusted Henley
and what he ald to "Ump- Ferine
caused that official to send Henley
from the diamond. Without chance to
warm up. Harry Sutor was hastily
thrown Into tho breach, and the six
runs scored by the Beavers off the
Texari, largely aided by Johnson's dou
ble, were more than enough.

Locked In a boxcar filled with burning
hay two unknown hobos had a miraculous
escape from death yesterday afternoon as
the O. R. & X. extra freight pulled into
the East Side Depot a few minutes after
4 o'clock with one of Its cars aflame.
When they were released from their peril
they had been In Imminent danger of
death for almost 20 minutes and escaped
only after they had been severely burned
about the head and body. The exact ex
tent of their injuries was not ascertained,
as the two men, no doubt fearing arrest
for their part In causing the fire, ran
away as fast as the"y could Immediately
upon their release from the firetrap. The
burning car was cut out from the train
and Bidetracked opposite the depot and
the Fire Department called for.
The cause of the Are is not definitely
established but from the presence of
smoking materials found in the car It Is
supposed that the blaze originated from
the carelessness of the two wanderers
who,-having found a soft bed, smoked
without regard to the inflammability of
their resting place. It Is not known
where they boarded the train but as
the car was locked at a station several
hours distant from Portland it is believed
that they had stolen aboard somewhere
above The Dalles. The fire was first dis
covered by the crew as the train was
nearlng this city. By the time it reached
the East Side Depot the flames had burst
through the roof and were endangering
the other cars near It.
The blazing car was then set aside and
two of the train crew secured crowbars
and battered open the doors with a view
of scattering the cargo outside and per
haps saving some of it. What was their
amazement when as soon as the doors
opened two queer-looking objects jumped
past them to the ground and sped down
the railroad track as fast as their heels
could carry them. The astonished rail
road men had barely time to get a good
look at the disappearing figures before
they were out of sight. Both fleeing men
had apparently been badly burned. It
was seen that the flames had scorched
their heads, as their hair had been singed
off and they were ell but bald and in a
number of places about their bodies
holes had been burned through their
clothing.
It was seen that the car was loaded
almost to Its roof and that the space be
tween the top of the hay and the roof of
the car was only Just'enough to comfort
ably admit a man on his hands and
knees. With the doors locked and the
ventilation confined to the cracks In the
casings how these men had managed to
escape suffocation during their long con
finement In smoke-laden atmosphere was
.commented on by the railroad employes
as being almost a miracle.
The Fire Department put out the fire
after the carload of hay had virtually
been destroyed at a loss of about $400,.
and the car, Union Pacific 71086. had been
damaged to the extent of two, me ponce
