BY W. J. PETBAHf.
Captain Ote Johnson's terrific club
was responsible lor a ninth-inning vic
tory for Portland over Los Angeles
yesterday afternoon. The mighty bats
man of McCredie's squad clouted one
over tho right garden wall In the last
half of the ninth, with the score 6 to 4
In favor of the visitors, and the two
Portlanders on the sacks ahead of
Johnson broke up the .matinee with the
' final Bcore 7 to 6 for Portland. And no
(one was out when the great finish oc-
curred.
Johnson's foat will linger In the
, minds of the 6000 rabid ones who left
' the grounds cheering lustily..
It really seemed that some of the
fanatics would drop of heart failure
when Johnson's drive cleared the right
garden wall and sent Ort and Speas,
who had been put on to run Instead of
McCredle, over the register ahead of
him. Ivor Olson had scored previ
ously In the Inning and this swelled
Portland's total to seven, while the
Angels' portion was the half-dozen aces
acquired In the fourth and first half
of the ninth Innings. In the latter In
ning1 the Angels went to bat with a 4-o-S
advantage over Portland, and
tSraney walked the first two men,
"Wheeler and Howard, which was fol
lowed by Smith's sacrifice advancing
both men. Delmas then hit for two
iiases. scoring two runs, and apparently
cinching the game for the Angels.
Many Give Up Hope.
A large number of the fans, or rather
near-fans, who give up hope under
uch circumstances, left the park when
the visitors put these two over, and,
thinking the game cinched for the other
fellows, went home before McCredie's
men opened up on Koestner. It served
them right, for they missed the warm
est finish In Portland's baseball his
tory. With Jack Graney pitching, the
fans believed it was Portland's game,
and when the McCredle squadron put
over runs In the second and third, most
of the bugs were satisfied the home
team oould not lose. However, Los
Angeles did something to the offerings
of the clever southpaw in their half of
the fourth that sent the hopes of the
home guard almost to zero. In fact,
when the bell tolled four dismal
strokes, signifying that Los Angeles
had acquired that many runs In the
fourth, gloom prevailed generally.
A small ray of hope cropped out in
Portland's half when the McCredieites
lessened the lead .by one run, still no
one Imagined such a glorious finish as
eventually took place. This was espe
cially so when the Angels wound up
their portion of the game with a brace
of runs that looked as big as a house.
A baseball game Is never over until
the last man Is out, and Portland's
quartet of runs was collected without
one man giving up his lire'.
Olson Starts Fireworks.
Ivor Olson started the grandstand
finish by working Koestner for a pass
George Ort drove a fast bounder past
Howard for a single to right. These
two fast base runners then refused to
be nailed to the sacks and pulled off a
double steal, Orendorrfs throw to
Smith carried wide and Olson scored
This raado the score four to six against
the Heavers, but no batsman was out
find McCredle was up. The tall man
ager dumped one at Jud Smith and
beat it to first, and Ort was on third
awaiting the effort of Johnson.
The "Terrible Swede" -walked to the
plate with a determined air, and his
notions showed he was there to hit the
fcall or die In the attempt. He swung
fiercely on the first one, and then the
limps called two balls and then an
other, making three balls and one
strike. The next one was a bad one
but McCarthy said' "Strike Two"'
Johnson gripped his bat more firmly
end met the next pitched ball fairly on
the beak, and as It sailed away toward
the right garden wall, the big crowd
rose en masse and breathlessly waited
for the ball to land either on the turf
in right field or to strike the fence
nd rebound into the grapplers of Big
Thompson.
When the sphere disappeared over
the top of the fence, and Just left of
nas marking the foul
line, the crowd burst out Into the most
frantic cheers, for It dawned on them
suddenly that the hit was a home run
and that it had also won the game.
The enthusiasm knew no bounds, and
it was not only noticeable among the
fans, for the players of the Portland
team rushed to the third-base line and
lid the "Marathon" with Johnson until
he crossed the plate, and then they
shook his hand, slapped him on the
back and showed their enthusiasm in
many different ways. It was a great
hit and came at a most opportune time.
Johnson Becomes Hero.
Several enthusiastic fans grabbed
off their hats, and shouting, "Come on,
boys, give something for little Ote
Johnson," meaning the hero's young
son. who first saw the light of day
three weeks ago, passed about among
the still wildly enthusiastic fans, and
before the crowd left the field over $60
was collected and tendered tho hard
hitting captain of the home team. One
of the most enthusiastic fans has
opened up a subscription list at a
down-town cigar store, and It is ex
pected to increase Johnson's gift to
ver $100.
, It was more or less of a ragged
me iuck in tne otner two games, such
as came yesterday, the entire six
games would have been credited to
McCredie's braves.
The Los Angeles team left last night
for home, where it meets the Vernon
team in a seven-game series. Next
Tuesday "Pop" Van Haltren and the
Oakland crew will hold forth In the
first of a six-game series.

ALL FOR HARNESS RACES

gramme Completed.
Secretary M. D. Wisdom, of the North
Pacific fair circuit, embracing all the
light harness race towns of the Pacific
LONG DRIVE OVER PENCE
LOS ANGELES.
i
Northwest, has Just completed the of
ficial programme for the various meets
to be held this season. Complete list
of events, together with the rich purses
that will be hung up, are Included in the
schedule.
Never before has there "been so much
money hung up for the trotters and
pacers here in Oregon, Washington and
Idaho. This applies not only to the
cities in the North Pacific circuit, but
to the other smaller racing points
These events, taken as a whole, give
an earning capacity to the harness horse
which has not been approached hereto
fore. One reason for this is the fact
says Secretary Wisdom, that book-making
has been eliminated in the racing
game on the Coast, which means that
harness races are coming more and more
into favor.
The widespread anti-gambling move
ment responsible for the wiping out of
betting on horse races has practically
abolished running races, and extraordi
nary efforts are being made by the lovers
Ji, e harness races to arouse general
public interest in the trotting and pacing
turf events by the offering of heavy
purses. y
, "T)ht,e inS fardS and P""" offered
for the different meets in the North Pa
cific circuit should mean without the
least doubt the finest harness racing ever

Home runs were the deciding factor
in today's game. Seattle's three home
runs by Lynch. Bennett and Frisk rep
resented the full count for the home
team, while it was Mullin's home run
with two on bases, ia the eighth, that
turned the tide and sent the Portlanders
off rejoicing with the final game of the
series by the score of 5 to 3.
Joe Seaton, for Seattle, allowed but
six hits and struck out 11, while Kin
sella, for Portland, held the safeties
down to seven, three of which went
over the fence when there wasn't a soul
on the sacks. Kinsella struck out 10
men himself and was steadier than
Seaton all the way.
The weather man tried to break up
the party by turning on the faucet when
Seattle was three homers to the good,
in the middle of the fifth, but after a
few of the large crowd had run for the
cars the warriors went at It again
Seattle scorers are united ln the opin
ion that, had Jimmle Flynn. umpire,
been on the Job in the eighth, the game
would have ended 3 to 1 in favor of Seat
tle. One man was down and Troeh, of
Portland, on third. Lynch ran. in and
caught a short fly right back of second
base. Troeh had legged it for the plate,
figuring the ball was a Texas leaguer,
and when the fly was caught he was
practically at the home plate. Lynch
tossed the ball into the diamond and it
was relayed to third, completing what
the spectators thought was a double play
and retiring the side. Jlmmie didn't see
It, and Mullin's home run followed. Score:

TRI-CITY SEASON IS OPENED
St. John Beats Vancouver on Latter's
Grounds by 4-3 Score.
St. John opened up the Trl-Clty League
baseball season yesterday with a victory
over the Vancouver team at Vancouver
4 to 3. The game was fast and hard
fought. It early developed into a pitcher's
battle between Elmer Stone, the Califor
nia Winter leaguer, and Troeh, the Van
couver youngster. Both men had wonder
ful control of the slippery ball and but
two players of each side were able to
work them for passes.
The Apostles started out with a rush
scoring two runs on the Washlngtonians
in the first and although they were tied
once they never lost the lead. Shorty
Adams singled through Erickson's legs
and stole second before the Vancouver
Infield had time to' wink. Schockley
popped out trying to sacrifice. Summers
too, tried to sacrifice but his bunt was
too fast and Troeh tried for Adams at
third. Adams got away from them, how
ever, and when Troeh threw wild to the
plate to catch Adams, both men scored.
Vancouver got one in her half on shock
ley's error. Causey's sacrifice and Pat
rick's hit.
Vancouver tied it up in the fifth on
Harris' single, his steal of second. Troeh's
single and an error on the part of D.
Stone. An error by Causey on Stone's
chance, D. Stone's single to left, a wild
pitch and George Pembroke's long two
bagger to left scored two more for the
Saints in the sixth, while Vancouver got
her last run ln the same inning on a
base on balls, an error by Stone and a
long single by Wood.
Mayor J. J. Kigglns and ChJef of Police
John Seachrist formed the honorary bat
tery for the occasion. A band furnished
music during the game.
