By the same score. I to 0. Portland and
San Francisco split even In yesterday's
double-header on the Vaughn-street lot.
The home guard, with Long Bobby
Oroom on the mound, won the opening
contest and thereby made It six games
In a row from the visitors. In the second
contest Portland found Browning too
much for them, and because of their In
ability to hit his delivery as well as poor
base running, were treated to a' white
wash. Both games were filled with splendid
fielding and snappy playing on the part
of each team. Groom was a trifle wob
bly at the opening of the Inaugural con
test, but after three Innings, during
which he was In trouble, steadied nicely
and had the Seals faded during the re
mainder of the game.
A pass to McCredle, Ryan's corking
ingle and an error by Mohler gave Port
land the first run In the second Inning.
Griffin pitched a good game, but was un
lucky in this Inning, as well as In the
fourth. With Raftery and McCredie In
pickle in the fourth. Griffin made the
mistake of hMtlng Ryan. Whaling sin
gled to left, and when McArdle allowed
Hildebrands return of the ball to go
through him. Rryan reached third and
Bert second. Groom's infield bingle to
Zelder chased Ryan over for the second
and last run of the game.
In the second Inning of the first game
San Francisco succeeded in filling the
bases with two down. Griffin was at bat
and fanned at the third strike, which
Madden dropped, but recovered In time
to force Williams at the plate.
In the eighth inning Portland cor
ralled three hits. Including a two-bagger,
yet was unable to score a run. Johnson
led off with an Infield tap which caught
Griffin napplnic and the Swede was safe
at first. Danzig doubled to the right
garden wall, but Melchlor returned the
ball speedily enough to hold Johnson at
third. McCredle failed to connect on a
hit and run play, which resulted in John
son being caught between third and
home. Immediately after this McCredie
singled to left, but too close in 'for Dan
zig to attempt to score from second.
Ryan grounded to Mohler. who made a
pretty stop and throw, retiring the side.
The sscond game opened with Jesse
Garrett on the mound for Portland, and
also introduced McCred'.e's new catcher,
Frambes. Frambes made a good Impres
sion despite his had luck in being re
sponsible for one of the two Seal tallies.
He receives neatly and throws quite ac
curately. His error bad throw to sec
ond In the eighth was the means of
Mohler Reaching third and eventually
registering the first run.
Mohler got on In this Inning by rapping
a hot one at Johnson, who knocked It
down, but was unable to throw In time
to get the Seal captain. Mohler went
down on the first pitched ball, and
Frambes" throw carried wide of Casey,
allowing the Seal to take third. Claude
Berry was sent In to bat for Klllifer
at this Juncture, and promptly laced the
first ball to left field, scoring Mohler.
Hildehrand. the first man tip In the
ninth, was safe on Cooney's error,, and
took second on Berger's sacrifice. The
latter was Introduced Into the game be
cause of a strenuous protest registered
by Roily Zelder. which resulted In the
crack short fielder being chased by Um
pire Cheyne. Melchlor scooted a neat
single to center. which Raftery had
difficulty in picking up. and Hildebrand
scored from second. Melchlor was tossed
on bv Frambes on an attempted steal,
and Williams ended the inning by a fly
to Raftery.
Interspersed throughout the games
were sensational plays by both teams.
Johnson pulled off an unassisted double
play In the opening contest that was a
hair-raiser, and cut off a threatening
Seal run. In the second contest the vis
itors figured ,in three speedy doubles,
while the home guard officiated In two
such retirements.
It was the completion of one of the
doubles on the. part of the home team
that caused Zelder's banishment. Roily
was safe in the seventh on an error by
Casey, and when Melchlor grounded to
Johnson, tried to make third on the play,
but Danzig shot the ball back to John
son Just In time to nip the speedy Seal.
Zelder thought he should have been de
clared safe and attempted to convince
Umpire Cheyne. However, his protest
was too vigorous, and the official gave
him the high sign.
Pitcher Patrick, the ex-Portlander. who
was to have hurled one game for San
Francisco, was unable to do so because
Kid Mohler had failed to secure the con
sent of the Jacksonville. 111., club, to
which organisation Patrick still Deiongs.
McCredie had simply purchased an op
tion on the player and when he required
his services no longer. Patrick reverted
back to the club from which he came.
Mohler will take the youngster to 8an
Francisco with him and hopes to have
matters straightened out with Jackson
ville bv the time the Seals get home.
The stringent laws of the National As
sociation of Professional Baseball
Leagues also prevented Mohler from se
curing another Portland player. Carl
Druhot. the clever little, southpaw who
pitched fine ball for the champion In
h .n.nnlw team of the American Asso
ciation, was to have been taken on by
San FranClSCO. OUI Momer naa luiuminu
that he could not use him unless the
owning club gave Its consent-

FAIR READY TO
.OPEN ITS GATES
Country - Club's Livestock
Show and Races Promise
to Be Great Success.
THRONGS GO TO GROUNDS
Interest In Exhibition Is Shown by
Large Crowd That Inspects
New Track, Grandstand
and Stables.
Today is grand opening day of the first
annual Pacific National Livestock Show
and Country Club harness race meet.
There is splendid promise that the six
days of the sport and exposition will
break all records for attendance, and at
tractions In the annals of similar enter
prises in the West. The total of cash
prizes to be awarded in the races and
stock exhibition exceed in value the
highest awards ever distributed by ajiy
similar display in the field of sports or
Industrials in this part of the country.
Great as was the Oregon State Fair,
Just ended, the pageantry of high-blooded
animals which will be exhibited in the
show ring and prize-winning parades
during the week is not to surpass what
the Country Club and Livestock Associa
tion promises to do for the next six
days. All that went to make tho live
stock feature of the State Fair a success
will be here, with notable additions from
a stock-producing territory considerably
broader than that from which the Sa
lem fair drew its regal blood of horses
and other divisions of the show.
Thousands Visit Grounds.
That the splendid attractions offered
will draw the multitudes that love the
majesty of the race and admire the form,
beauty and breeding of fine-nurtured
stock Is a foregone conclusion, judging
from the preliminary interest taken In
the event all day yesterday. Estimates
of the number of people who visited the
beautiful and picturesque grounds Sun
day run anywhere from 1,000 to 20,000.
They began packing the streetcars early
in the morning, and hour by hour the
facilities for handling the throngs had
to be Increased, until from 1 o'clock In
the afternoon until late last evening a
five-minute service with two-car trains
was maintained.
At times during the afternoon when
some of the brilliant performers in the
coming races were sent around the track
to "warm up" and test the new mile
oval there were close to 2000 people
seated In the grandstand. The racing
stables where the best trotters and pacers
of the West will be housed for the week
were besieged with curious sight-seers
and lovers of horse flesh. The big group
of a dozen livestock, barns, where the
horses, cattle, sheep, swine and feature
exhibits will be shown, were literally
Jammed while the stock was being un
loaded from the O. R. & N. trains into
the pavilions. In addition to this there
was a steady procession of automobiles
from town out to the Country Club dur
ing the greater part of the day, while
hundreds of other pleasure vehicles went
to the track to spin around the course.
Saddle horses without number were also
awhlrl about- the oval In pairs, groups
and squads, by both men and women
riders.
Enjoy Ideal Weather.
The magnificent weather of Sunday
contributed largely to the ostentation
and pomp of the Sunday outing. And
all who went marveled at what they
saw. Most of them had heard and read
of the matchless scenery and pictur
esque setting of the natural amphi
theater of the Country Club, but few
of them had taken the palne to see and
approve all this with their own eyes.
Contrary to the usual custom of
charging a small admission fee at such
a time, the Country Club threw open
the gates and allowed the crowds to
go and come as they pleased, affording
them a chance to decide for themselves
in advance something of the magnitude
of the week's sport that begins today.
Fully 75 per cent of the racehorses
entered in the various events arrived
from the State Fair Saturday night and
yesterday, and a big force of attend
ants were busy until a late hour last
night assigning the entries to their
proper stables and stalls. Scores of car
loads of livestock arrived at the
grounds yesterday, and the pavilions
were fairly well filled by dark, and the
remainder of the speed kings and
queens and show stock will be on the
grounds early this morning.
Stock Ready for Exhibit.
With the big staff of people at work
on the grounds and with the prompt
manner In which the stock is being
handled. It Is expected that before noon
today every department of the exposi
tion will be ready for the week's work.
Every hour of each of the six days will
be filled with some Interesting function
of the big show. The work of Judging
some of the divisions of the livestock
department will begin this morning,
and the exact order in which the classes
are to be Judged is to be determined
by Superintendent George Gammie. It
will depend upon what classes are
ready for the ehow-ring first. The
Judges will continue each day until the
huge task is completed. Of as great
Interest as the Judging in the show
ring itself will be the daily grand pa
rades of the prize-winners in front of
the grandstand and pavilion and around
the track.
Promptly at 1:30 o'clock this after
noon will begin the first of the North
Pacific Fair Circuit races ever held
here. The opening' event will be the
Open River purse, 2:14 pace, for which
$1000 has been hung up. There are 28
entries in this event. The full list was
published in The Sunday Oregonian. In
the field of probably 20 starters will
be found all the finest pacers in this
class on the Coast, and for an opening
event It Is one of the very best that
could have been offered. It will be fol
lowed by the Commercial Club purse,
2:18 trot, 81000, In which there are 29
entries. In the trot, as in the pace, the
entire Coast Is represented by high
class performers, particularly notable
among them being Day Break, owned
by Joe Magulre, who In the 2:14 trot at
Salem last Thursday broke the track
record twice.
Guldeless Pacer on Track.
Next on the programme comes per
haps one of the most attractive feature
events of the entire meet, the first; at
tempt here of College Maid, the world
record "guldeless pacer," to lower her
record of 2:09. This wonderful mare
will encircle the track without driver,
rider or hand to urge her on.
H. C. Campbell, one of the Country
Club directors, who has charge of the
"Mule Derby." another feature event
for this afternoon, says he will have
the mules on hand for the race, and he
has secured the consent of a number

SEATTLE, Wash., Sept. 20. (Special.)
Seattle lost another game by an over
whelming score today. The locals have
apparently quit and it is Just a ques
tion of how many runs the other team
will get. The featur was the eighth
inning, when Kellacky, first up for Ta
coma. pasted the ball out of the lot.
Morse, next up. followed suit, and Suess
also put the ball over the fence, three
home runs in one Inning. Martlnke also
annexed a homer in the third, with two
on bases. Tacoma started things by
scoring twice in the first Inning and kept
it up the "rest of the game. The visitors
hit Allan all over the lot and the home
team contributed errors wherever the
necessary hits to bring home runs were
not forthcoming. Seattle was not in the
game at any time. Score:

The reason that Captain Savldge looks
forward to a successful season this year
for his team is that many of the old
players will be present and a number
of new prospective stars will be worked
into excellent shape. Paul Savldge, a
brother of the varsity captain, is manager
of the Idaho team this year. John Mid

of the famous Idaho sweep play, will take
charge of the eleven again this year. It
is claimed, by those who know, that Mid
dleton has some plays up his sleee which

colleges this Fall. He win work them
out on the Moscow gridiron this Fall and
probably spring them only during the lat

Captain Savldge wUl play his end posi

team, will take the other end. Henry
Smith and Jay Jellick are slated as
tackles. Stokesberry and Pauls, guards
last year, are candidates for the same
positions.
The back field will be snappier this
year than ever before. Johnson will be at
left half. Montgomery Is to try for full-
