BT W. J. FETRAIN.
The farewell matinee on the Vaughn
street lot yesterday between McCredie's
Portland bunch and the Athenian tribe
from Oakland presented one 11-inning
contest, oaptured by the home team, and
a five-inning drawn battle in which neith
er side was able to score.
Owing to the fact that both trams
were scheduled to leave on the 7:45 train
for Ban Francisco, the second contest had
to be curtailed to five innings.
Long Bobby Groom was on the hill for
the home guard, and had he used a little
judgment in dealing with Heiney Helt
muller in the fourth canto, he would have
scored a whitewash over the visiting
hunch. As It happened, however, Bobby
pot a trifle careless with Heiney after
Hogan had reached first on Danzig's er
ror, and the big Dutchman skied one out
of the lot for a home run which netted
Oakland her only brace of runs. As a
matter of fact Heltmuller was the only
visitor to solve Groom's delivery success
fully, and is credited with the two legiti
mate hits Bobby allowed. The obliging
scorer exempts Groom from a rank error
in the first canto and gives Truesdale
a hit. which brings Oakland's total hits to
three.
With two runs against the locals in the
fifth, Bassey secured a pass as the first
man up for Portland. Madden and Groom
were out on flies to the outfield, and
Casey should have been ice-packed like
wise, but "Exuberant William." a member
of the Hogan family, muffed the easy
pop fly skied by the Portland captain,
and Bassey. who had stolen second, trot
ted home with Portland's first run.
Portland tied the score In the sixth.
Cooney led off by beating- out an infield
hit to Smith. Johnson sacrificed, and
when Danzig laced a corking single to
left. Phil ambled home. This ended the
scoring until the eleventh when Tom Mad
den's trusty bat broke up the engagement.
Danzig was safe on Smith's error. Franv
beg sacrif:ced. and McCredle beat out an
Infield tap that sent Hal to third. Bassey
hit to Eagan. who threw Danzig out at
the plate, on which McCredle took second,
and when Madden came to the front with
a pretty drive to deep left near the foul
line. McCredle camo homo with the ace
that broke the tie.
It was presentation day at Vaughn
street, as well 1 1 getaway day. Ote John
son, on his first appearance at the plate,
was presented with a handsome gold
watch and fob: the gift of the fans of the
City of Portland. The presentation was
made by Ed Deitrich and Immediately
afterwards Johnson struck out.
Before the team left for the South last
night. Bert Whaling, the hard-working
young catcher was handed his release.

OXYGEN XOW FOR ATHLETES
London Professor Says It Will Help
Break AH Records.
Ada-Ices from London are to the effect
that athletes, especially the runners,
will soon be enabled to break all pre
vious records for any distance, thanks
to a discovery made by Leonard Hill,
professor of physiology at the London
Hospital. Professor Hill states that he
is prepared to help In this record
smashing, his method being to admin
ister pure oxygen to runners just be
fore they start in a race. At the
London Hospital sporta, held recently,
oxygen was administered to the run
ners, and they were greatly aided by
the treatment. Then the professor se
cured the consent of Holding, an Eng
lish runner, to a trial.
"Mr. Holding." Professor Hill said,
"started off with an unpaced quarter
of a mile, after breathing oxygen for
two minutes. His time was BO 1-5 sec
onds. Mr. Holding told us that In the
trials for the Olympic games he had
been unable to do a quarter in less
than 52 seconds, and his previous best
was 61 1-5 seconds. The onlookers de
clared that he was no more distressed
than if he had run 100 yards. With
this Mr. Holding agreed. Noticeably
absent was the stiffness of the muscles
and grogglness in the legs which follow
a great running exertion."
Mr. Hill Is now trying to get a
world's record breaker to run for him.
as he is convinced that remarkable re
sults will be obtained by the use of
oxygen. Its use, he believes, can only
do good In the athlete, while it relieves
great distress, such as was seen In the
case of Dorando. .
JOE GANS OX RAGGED EDGE
Debts Force Him fo Continue In
Fighting Game.
BALTIMORE, Md., Sept. 20. (Special.)
Joe Gans is back in his home town
once more, but his arrival was very dif
ferent from the triumphant entry he
made two years ago, when he returned
after getting the decision over Nelson
at Goldfleld. Only one or two personal
friends met him at the depot in place
of the throngs which greeted him when
he returned during his championship
career.
Gans' announcement that he will re
turn to the ring, it is now learned, has
largely been prompted by necessity. In
spite of the fact that his hotel, a rather
small structure, valued at $30,000, is
still held in his name, it is said that In
ctimbrancea of about $22,000 are upon it.
This gives him only a comparatively
small equity.
It Is said here that Al. Hereford, Gans'
former manager, is the man who holds
a considerable interest in the mortgage.
Philosophical deductions can- be drawn
from this as -to whether the manager
or the fighter is the man who gets the
profits.
Three Elevens for Albany.
ALBANY, Or., Sept 27. (Special.) The
Alco Club, Albany's social organization,
which entered the athletic field last
Spring with a very successful baseball
team, will take up football, this Fall.
This will give Albany three good foot
ball teams this Fall. Football prospects
at Albany College indicates the best
team that school has had for three years
and the Albany High School Is also put
ting out a team which will be able to
compete with all schools of Its class.
BY HARRY B. SMITH.
PAN FRANCISCO. Sept. 26. (Spe
clal.) With only the Moran-Hanlon go
to look forward to, the fans of this
neck of the woods are In a state erf
lethargy almost as deep as that which
envelopes the spellbinder of the present
political campaign. The Papke-Ketchel
fight is too far away co rouse more
than a mild, patient sort of interest.
The chances are that Battling Nelson
will not fight again this. year. Willis
Britt, his manager, is the authority for
the statement that he will take no
chances with short goes in the East.
The BattTer thinks too much of his title
to risk It monkeying with little coin
grabbing propositions In abbreviated
contests. He has to have a long route.
"Take It from me," said Britt, "that
the Battler will dally In the footlights'
glare for some time. The money is
coming in easy, and as long as the sun
Is shining leave it to us to gather the
hay. We need it In our business.
When the time :omes the Pane will
meet Packy McFarland before the club
that offers the best- money. That time
Is still far off. And another thing
that's an immortal cinch. Bat will go
no short route. That doesn't suit hi
style of fighting. He Is a fighter and
he can't show to lis best Inside of ten
rounds. He Isn't ifoing to try, either.
Englishman Despises Hanlon.
Aside from the Influence of Eddie
Hanlon's local popularity there Is con
siderable Interest in the go with
Moran, because of the fact that the
Englishman has openly said that he
does not think much of the local light
weights. He beli-ives that ha can do
some damage In that class.
While Hanlon is a resurrected fighter,
he has shown that he has some of his
old-time steam, and at least will give
the Englishman an evenings work.
Though Moran seems to have given
away a lot of weight In the articles,
as a matter of fact there will not be
such a difference in the tonnage of the
men when they get together, for Moran
is a big boy of the Corbett type and
will not be able to stay in the feather
weight class much longer. At his first
meeting with Attell he was not able
to make 122 pounds, and at the second
meeting he worked so hard to do it
that he was weak and his punches
lacked power.
Hanlon is certain that he has the
fight already. He says, "This fellow Is
the same sort as Young Corbett. I got
him and I can get this fellow the same
way.
Britt Has Aspirations.
Rumors are abroad that another
pugilistic ghost is about to be called
back from the vasty deep. The spook
is no other than Fames Edward Britt,
who is now visiting Gay Paree and is
a devil on the boulevards, if somewhat
biased reports are to be credited. The
man who made the ulna bone ramous
by quitting when l.e saw that Gans had
the Indian sign on him wants to fight
Battling Nelson again.
On the dope he has some right to
ask for a battle with the Dane, for he
got a decision over him after the Dane
took the championship away from him.
James Edward will be a rash young
man if he insists on the go. for that
night Nelson was suffering more from
an overloaded stomach than he was
from Brltt's punches. If they ever
meet again Britt will have to be a good
runner to avoid a worse beating than
Gans got the last time.
The funny part of the meeting. If It
should occur, will be the position of
Willis Britt, who Is now the manager
of Battling Nelson. He win not lose
the Dane, for Bat Is too good a money
getter now and it Is probable that the
Irrepressible boy impresario will be
rooting for the Dane to slaughter
James Edward, his brother.
To the Woods for Ketchel.
Stanley Ketchel will soon be out la
the woods for a month. The whirlwind
young middleweight has not lost con
fidence because of fhe terrible beating
he received, but Is as chipper as ever.
It Is a cinch that when he meets the
Thunderbolt again the battle will be one
of the fiercest ever held here. Ketchel
Is not of the type to be discouraged by
a beating and if ever a man looks
ready to come back he does.
Ketchel has been saving his money
carefully, and his ambition is to retire
with the middleweight championship.
"I'll get him this time." he says. "I
was careless and the one clip spoiled
my chances. He will never land an
other like that on nie."
Billy Delaney, who handled James
Corbett and Jim Jeffries, still has faith
In big Al Kaufman, who is now in
the East with him, and thinks that the
big Callfornian will some day beat
Tommy Burns. We of San Francisco
are not so optimistic as to that.
Kaufman is tough as a bullet and
has a good stiff punch, but he Is slw,
especially in the think tank, where he
should be fast. He lacks the fighting
spirit, which has a tinge of meanness
in it and which is Indispensable to a
man who would win championship
honors. Kaufman Is game enough, but
he lacks the temperament for a sue-,
ccssful pugilist, and that Is something
which Billy Delaney cannot teach to
him.
Johnson-Burns Go a Frame?
The match between Johnson and
Burns In Australia Is looked upon with
considerable suspicion by the local fol
lowers of the game. Some of them
are open In the opinion that It is a
frame to take some of the coin
away from the Antipodes. The size of
the purse offered, $50,000, makes the
local promoters sit up, and they de
clare that it must be conversation
money.
Whatever the decision may be down
there It Is a cinch that Billy Delaney
and Al Kaufman will meet Burns at
the dock when he comes back and
will challenge. To the local fans It
would seem that Al should do a little
more good for his country before he
can expect Burns to take his challenge
seriously.
Abe Attell will probably be waiting
at the church for a match for some
time to come. The stench of the last
go with Moran still lingers In the
nostrils of the fans and they want no
more of Abe. If he Is ever signed with
Moran again for anything but a finish
fight, there will be a howl of protest
and the go will not be well patronized.
Attell is after another 15-round go
with Nelson. In the last one on points
he beat Nelson a mile and did more
damage to him than Gans did in both
of the last fights, though the Hebrew
could not have lasted many rounds
longer. He rocked the Dane several
times and almost had him groggy.
While he could do. this to the Battler,
he looked like a novice when he was
boxing with Gans. Attell admits that
the negro Is his master, but declares
that he can beat the Dane.
Mohler Crabbing Again.
Kid Mohler Is still telling tales about
how he was robbed by Plush Flynn,
the new Coast League umpire. To the
writer Flynn seemed to have all the
class as an arbitrator, and it would
seem as though Mohler had become
something of a crab. His decisions
here gave perfect satisfaction. -
Baseball followers are mystified as
to the Coast League's plans for next
year. Cal Ewing declares that nothing
will be done until after the meeting
of the National Association, and does
not want to discuss the matter In any
way. Two California clubs have been
granted franchises already, and should
a c'ash with Judge McCredle occur the
league will be Involved In some ex
pensive suits.
Meanwhile the fans are wondering,
Cal Ewing Is worrying and there is a
beautiful storm brewing when the
question of extension has to be settled.
PITCHER IS 3T OT EVERYTHING
Club Can Win With Fair Oneet Says
"Kid" Elberfeld.
"Kid" Elberfeld, manager of the New
York Club of the American League, is
quoted as saying that no team, lacking
great pitcners, ever won a, cuttmyivu
ship. Truly we do not remember that any
of the pitchers of the famous Baltimore
Club were truly great. Al Maul did
a lot toward winning one of their
championships. Al Maul had nothing
but a good club behind him. McMahon,
Jay Hugnes, Joe Corbett, Doctor Pond
or Jlmmie McJames would scarce be
considered great. They won games
therefore were great, with Baltimore.
But not anywhere else.
And .be it remarked that Baltimore
often beat clubs for the championship
that had great pitchers. It beat New
York in 1894 with Rusie and Meekin.
It beat Cleveland with Young and
Cuppy in 131)5-96. It had no such pitch
ers as Nichols of Boston or as "Vic"
Willis, who was a teammate of the
same Nichols.. When the Orioles met
these clubs in the Temple cup games
the great pitchers, working every oth
er game, usually beat them, for Bal
timore had no pitchers wprth speaking
of. McMahon, the best pitcher of the
Orioles, had nothing in the way of
speed and curve that at all compared
with possessions of Rusie and Meekin,
or Nichols and Willis, or Young and
Cuppy. ' .
What good do great pitchers do the
Cardinals? Oh, no. Pitchers help Just
as inflelders, hitters, etc., help, just
as Hans Wagner helps. But a club can
win a championship with fair pitchers.
The Orioles did it. Detroit did it. Was
it the "Big Four" or the pitchers that
won for Detroit and Buffalo in the
'80s? Baldwin. Getzin and Twltchell
were no stars in the pitching way.
No, the pitcher Is not all of the team.
Not by a jugful.
JEFFRIES
SELECTS
BURNS
Retired Champion Says Jack John
son Has Little Chance.
James J. Jeffries can't see Jack John
son when the black fighter Is sized up
with Tommy Burns. The retired cham
pion, asked to give his opinion of the
scrappers, wrote the following:
Tommy Burns will defeat Jack
Johnson if they ever meet, provided
Burns can get in a couple of good
punches in the mid section of the
Senegambian.
"This is my honest opinion of what
the result of the fight would be should
the pair meet-
"Jack Johnson Is the biggest dog
that ever entered a prizering and has a
streak of yellow in his system as wide
as a street.
"I think that Tommy Burns is as
game as they make them, quick on his
feet, clever and able to stand a world
of punishment. Tills last is what Jack
Johnson cannot do.
"I think this talk about Burns being
afraid of Johnson is more or less of a
fable. Burns is afraid of no man, white
or black, and has taken chances that
no other would have taken.
'He fought Marvin Hart when the
latter was a 3-to-l favorite and has
never balked at fighting any man.
"Tommy probably sees a chance to
get a lot of press agent matter out of
his controversy, and is working both
ends against the middle with good re
sults. Some day, perhaps, Johnson and
Burns will meet.
"Johnson, with his long reach and
huge stature, Is not Infallible, and If
Burns fights the right kind of scrap he
will lick him as surely as he licked
the much-touted Bill Squires."

GIVES TRIBUTE TO HAYES
Hefferon, South African Prizewin
ner, Praises Marathon Victor.,
C. Hefferon. the South African runner.
who BOt second prize in the Knglish
Marathon, paid a big tribute to John J.
Hayes, the American. In a public letter
a few days before he left Bngland for
his home. He said that he had not the
least doubt that Hayes was the best man
In the race, and that he richly merited
all the honor the victory brought him.
The excessive heat, he thinks, knocked
all the Englishmen out of the contest so
soon. At the start he thought the most
dangerous men were Duncan. Lord and
Appleby, and Svanberg. the Swede.
Tom Longboat, he thought, was a fake.
and mentions that he knew he would
beat th redskin the first time they met.
It will be remembered that friends of
Hefferon protested Hayes, but after the
race was over Hefferon ordered the ob
jection withdrawn at once. The South
African admitted that he had been train
ing for the Marathon for a long time,
and that he will be on the firing line at
Athens In 1910. and he hoped he would
remember the mistakes he made in Eng
land. Hefferon is quoted as follows:
"Speaking of Hayes, the actual winner.
I think he thoroughly deserved his vic
tory. Many rumors went around that
Hayes was assisted, as weil as Doranto.
I did not see it. and have no hesitation
in saying that Hayes was the best man
in the Marathon race. I warned my at
tendants before starting that whatever
they did they were not to do anything
that might cause me to be disqualified,
for I had made myself fully acquainted
with the rules laid down by the Olympic
committee. If I was assisted in any way
in the Stadium I did not know of it. I
feel fit and well, and could run another
Marathon race tomorrow.
'What annoys me most Is that people
talk about the race being run too fast
from the beginning. Many have con
demned the English runners for their
poor display and their foolishness in cut
ting out the pace too fast. I say that
their failure was due to the excessive
heat, and nothing else; and I would
stake my life on the English long-distance
runners, especially Duncan.
"As for Longboat, I have proof to show
that his running in Canada was a farce,
and I am positive that I could beat Long
boat from 60 yards up to 25 miles, giving
him choice of road or track in England.
Ireland. America or Canada. I said two
years ago that I would beat Longboat
the first time we met, and Alfred Shrubb,
the wonder of the world, was right when
he said that there were at least she run
ners in England who could run Longboat
off his feet.
The only men I was afraid of were
Duncan, Lord. Appleby, and Svanberg, of
Sweden. I shall never forget Duncan
when at seven miles the excessive heat
was telline on him so much. His attend
ant gave him a wet sponge. Instead of
using it himself he gave it to me, wnen
he needed it a thousand times more than
I did. No doubt on a cool day Duncan
would beat us all. The enthusiasm
shown by the spectators all along the
Marathon route was a thing to be re
membered."

Indianapolis Man Invents Device for
Automobiles.
INDIANAPOLIS. Ind., Sept. 12. (Spe
cial.) An automobile starter has been
perfected by Its inventor. George Buress,
of this citv. and a public demonstration
will take place in a few days. Mr. Bur-
ess, after years of faithful worn ana
study, has perfected an auto starter that
will save the autoist considerable muscle
find ill-temDer.
The autoist, in place of getting out in
the mud In bad weather, and using all
his or her surplus energy In cranking the
machine,' merely gets Into the car, pulls
lever and the work Is done.
Other mechanical engineers have tried
for years to solve the problem that is now
about to be placed on the market Dy ir.
Buress. This invention can be placed on
any Car and be operated by any woman
or child without the least exertion.
In this starter thera is no chance for
back-firing, thus causing severe accidents
and often broken bones. There is no extra
noise caused by the attachment, as it goes
out of engagement same as it went In. It
increases the leverage ana aouDies me
stroke, and any expert can readily see
how necessary this is to the perfect ma
chine. Mr. luress is a modest man and has
hesitated about placing his valuable In
vention upon the open market, but after
considerable persuasion by personal
friends, has consented to make a public
demonstration and allow the public to be
judges of its merit. He has several flat
tering offers from companies desiring ex
clusive use of his patent, but feels that a
practical demonstration of Its value
should first be made before placing it on
the market for general use.

Before Methodist Conference Church
Official Gives Address, Taking
Fifth Commandment as Text.
SALEM, Or., Sept. 27. (Special.1
We must have no type of supernciai
education which will make children
ashamed of their parents." was one of
the pervading sentiments of the an
nual sermon delivered by Bishop
Hmrhen hefore the Methodist Confer
ence today. He took for his text the
fifth commandment. "Honor thy father
and thy mother that thy days may be
long uponthe land which the Lord
thy God giveth thee." The Bishop's
nlea for resnect and love and consider
ation foV parents was so earnest and
so touching that several times there
was scarcely a tearless eye In the vast
audience which crowded the First
Methodist Episcopal Church to hear
him. Though delivered before a con
ference of ministers, the address was
directed particularly toward students,
many of whom have just re-entered
school at Willamette University for the
new school year.
"How frequent," said Bishop Hughes,
"at commencement time do we see
sons who are dressed in the height of
fashion ashamed of the parents whose
toll and self-sacrifice made their ad
vancement possible. You young people
who are now, out from under the direct
command of. your parents have the
best chance to honor your fathers and
mothers, and if you do not make the
best of your opportunities while they
are making sacrifices for you, you are
contemptible beyond expression."
In a deeply pathetic manner Bishop
Hughes told the story of a young man
who attained social prominence at col
lege and who later became dangerously
ill with typhoid. His aged mother,
stooped and worn with age and toil,
came and attended him. One day after
he had nearly regained his health a
number of college friends called and
while they were there his mother
passed through the room. The young
men inquired who she was, and he re
plied. "Oh. she is a woman who has
been waiting on me."
" 'Must we honor parents regardless
of their character?' I am asked," the
bishop said. "I answer, 'if your parents
are not worthy of honor, God pity you.'
but we need to be very, very careful
before presuming that parents are not
worthy of honor. There may be occa
sions of failure of parental judgment,
but most frequently It Is the child's
judgment that falls, and not the
parents .
"My young friends, you have with
you the happiness or misery of your
parents. There Is no other sorrow so
great as that of seeing children walk-
ins: the path that leads down to ruin.
There is no other happiness like that
which fills the hearts of a father and
mother when they see a child climbing
the heights to success and honor. Do
not wait to scatter roses upon the
graves of yqur parents; scatter roses
upon the pathway that leads to the
grave."
This afternoon exercises were held
n memory of the heroes of Methodism,
and the new deacons and elders were
ordained. This evening an Epworth
Leairue rally was held, and Rev. G. B.
Smith delivered an address before the
Women's Foreign Missionary Society.
District Fair Larger Than Ever.
FENDIJ3TON. Or., Sept. 27. (Special.)
