BT W. J. PETRAIN.
Helney Pernoll, the J3M0 Aberdeen
beauty, was trimmed twice by the Port
land Colts In yesterday's double-header,
lor the home tram annexed both games
by scores of 2 to 1 and 4 to 1. Helney,
however, did not pitch two full games,
but was merely sent to the rescue of
Most by Manager Rowland as the first
contest went Into extra sessions. A neat
little error at the first sack by Julie
Strieb collected the lemons for Pernoll
in the tenth inning of a snappy exhi
bition. Still that first game should have
been won several times by Portland, for
Tom Seaton allowed the Cats but one
hit and that came in the ninth in time
to score the tielng run.
Smooth Until Fifth.
In came No. 2 Heiney got away nicely.
All was smooth sailing for the Grants
Pass lad until the fifth inning. Then he
had bad lurk in large bunches, for
Charlie Armbruster led an assault that
simply put the prize beauty clear to the
queer. Portland scoring three runs before
Heiney realized the situation.
In the first section of the bargain-day en
counter Bassey opened on Most In the
sixth Inning with a double-sack drive to
the left garden wall, and took third when
Moore booted Mullln's grounder. Crocker
scored the count by a similar clout which
was tossed badly by Bewer. That was all
for the Colts for the time being, though
they frequently showed signs of en
dangering the register. Dick Breen was
especially offensive to the Black Cats.
ricky picked off a trio of safe swats and
pilfered four bases during that game. In
fact, it was Iick's base-running pro
clivities that finally made It possible to
end the gam In the tenth chapter.
Breen Swats to Left.
Breen was the first of the Caseyttes to
face Heiney, and celebrated the event
by slapping a single to left field. Bassey
executed the sacrifice play, and when
Kennedy, who batted for Mullln, fanned.
Pick took third because O'Brien dropped
the third strike. Billy Staton hit a slow
bounder to Charlie Moore, who threw
nicely to first, but Julie Strieb politely
dropped the ball, Breen scoring the win
ning run on the miscue.
In the second contest Aberdeen put a
run over on Eddie Kinsella in the fourth
inning, and. as Pernoll was pitching
grandly, the fans thought it spelled dis
aster for the tall Portlander. Swalm
opened this Inning with a single, and took
second when Klnsy tossed badly trying
to catch him off first. Lejeune flew to
Bassey. but Julie Streib made up for his
error in the first came by singling over
first, on which Swalm scored.
Armbrusf.r engineered the trimming
handed Helney by opening the fifth with
a single to left.
Confab a Success.
"Buster" had a confab with Kinsella
previous to this, and it must have worked
out nicely, for Big Eddie laced one down
the first-base line instead of bunting, and
the bail scooted past Streib to right
field. Armbruster going all the way to
third. "Buster" was held at third on
Adam's out, which advanced Kinsy to
second. Icen Dicky Breen again dis
tinguished himself. He hit safely to right
field, on which both Armbruster and
Kinsella scored. Breen stole second, and
continued to third because Kreitz, who
succeeded O'Brien, tossed wildly, and
scored oa Pcrnnll's error on Bassey'a
squeeze bunt.
The Aberdeen bunch left last night for
horn?, where they will play a week's en
gagement with Spokane, while this after
noon the Pcrtlund bunch will open an
other eight-game series with the Tacoma
Tigers as the possible victims. Six out
f eijrht games have been Casey's por
tion for the past week. This record Is
worth some notice, and promises, if kept
up. to land Casey's bunch in third place.

FAN'S CROWD ABOUT UMPIRE
Tacoma Partisans Angered at
Questionable Decision.
TACOMA, Aug. 21 Umpire Drennan
was followed out of the grounds by a
threatening crowd after today's game,
but nothing came of the demonstration.
The fans were angered by a decision on
a questionable hit, which Drennan called
fair and which gave Spokane its two
runs. Spokane deserved to win. how
ever, cm the superior pitching of Killllay.

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 12. (Spe
cial.) This forenoon before) a crowd
that overflowed the seats at Freeman's
Park the Beavers and Seals fought it
out to a 3-to-3 draw in 13 innings, a
draw that was made possible because
the umpire allowed the Beavers to kill
time in the last of the 13th, when the
bases were filled with Seals and there
was but one out, the time limit im
posed on the forenoon contests calling:
a halt and sending the game back to
the twelfth.
And in the afternoon, with a crowd
that went well over 14,000, a crowd that
taxed the capacity of the Recreation
Grounds, before fans who were root
ing every moment for Portland to suf
fer defeat, the Northern nine struggled
doggedly to overcome a lead of 3 to 2.
It was a great game and a fitting
climax to a series that had been hard
fought from the time the first gong
was sounded last -Tuesday afternoon.
For San Francisco to lose meant that
the Northerners would take the series
4 to 2. For the Seals to win gave them
an even break on the six games with
one tie. It was no hollow victory for
the leaders, no accidental taking of a
game Just because a pitcher can strike
out man after man. It was a case of
matching wits.
Jack Henley deserved a world of
credit for the way he stood the brunt
of the fight. That he fanned 12 of
the Portland batters and their heaviest
stickers is only half the tale. Three
Portlanders in a row hit the ball and
filled the bases before there was one
out. That was what happened to Hen-'
ley In the fifth, but he buckled down to
the Job and retired the side without a
run.
Harkness was far from being the
Harkness who broke his benders over
the plate in the middle of the week.
With less control than he had shown
"Speck" was touched for two in the
first inning and in the fourth a dash
to second and later a daring steal
home by Jimmy Lewis so disconcerted
Harkness that he threw the ball wild
and allowed the runner to score.
As to tho crowd. Recreation Park
never before saw such a mass of people
as passed through the turnstiles. By
2 o'clock, half an hour before the bell
was scheduled to ring, the ropes were
stretched and the fans were massed
five and six deep all around the outer
edge of the diamond. It shows that it
is a paying investment to put up first
class scrappy ball playing. The scores:

Too bad such a game magnate as
George Schreeder is not located in a town
like Portland or Seattle, where he could
afford to buy one or two high-class
players.
m m
Schreeder has spent more money for
players this season than Dugdale, but the
Seattle man got the goods, while the Ta
coma man seemed- to have dealt In
lemons and quinces. It's the luck of
baseball.
Tom Seaton claimed that Frary robbed
him of a no-hit, no-run game by calling
four balls on Charley Moore, who scored.
the Cats' only run. Still Tom might have
outguessed Lejeune at that. He pitched
a grand game, however, and deserved to
win.
Heiney Pernoll, who has been Aber
deen's mainstay in th box, is credited
with two defeats instead of one yester
day, for he lost the first as well as the
second game. That makes three trim
mings handed him by Portland during
the week.
An even break on the series was the
best McCredie's bunch could do with the
Seals, but look at the hits Portland got
n the afternoon game. Its a cinch to
bet Walter McCredle has something to
say about Cal Ewing's umpires.

President Lucas spent yesterday visit-
ire friends in the country. There he en-
Joyed seeing an old-time town-lot game

Seaton, Adams, Fournler, "Chief"
Pinnance and Kennedy Trans
ferred From Northwest '
to Coast League.
;
BY W. J. PETRA1N,
Before departing for a few days' rest
and recreation at Seaside last night,
Judge McCredle talked Just a wee bit
about the baseball situation and the pos
sibilities for next season. In his brief
remarks, however, the baseball mogul
said a whole lot at least, the informa
tion he gave will interest the fans con
siderably. In the first place, the Judge gave out
that Tom Seaton, Johnny Fournler, Fred
Adams, Chief Pinnance and Ed Kennedy
had been sold by his Northwestern
League Club to his Pacific Coast League
Club, and that the deals had been of
ficially sent to Secretary Farrell, of the
National Association of Professional
Baseball Leagues. This means that any
of these. players who may attract the at
tention of big league scouts will have to
be selected from the Coast club. In other
words, Judge McCredie has bought these
five players from himself, and thereby
has probably transferred a dollar or so
from one pocket to the other. He is the
only baseball magnate in the country who
can do such a thing. These players will
finish out the season with the North
western team.
A glance at the list of transferred
playeTS does not contain the name of
Irving Gough. This is explained by tho
fact that Gough has been repurchased by
agreement by the Cleveland American
League team, from which club McCredie
secured him last Spring. Judge McCredie
may yet transfer his remaining North
western League players, for he has sev
eral days yet before the open season
for drafting begins. Breen and Arm
bruster are "Coasters" still, and are only
loaned to Casey.
Another thing that will interest the
fans of Portland is that J. Cal Ewing Is
anxious to come North and look over the
situation once more. J. Cal has re
ceived such glowing reports from his
uncle, Frank Ish, that he can scarcely
contain himself In that dear San Fran
cisco, and has asked McCredie to tell him
when would be an opportune time to
come North. The Judge has not yet an
swered Ewing's missive, but he will
probably inform the league's President
that any old time will do. The Portland
magnate does not take much stock In
Ewing's alleged enthusiasm over the pro
posed eight-club circuit. Judge McCredie
claims that it has been Ewing who has
balked the expansion Idea for two years,
and he thinks Ewing is quite likely to be
found in the same attitude again. Mc
Credie can be excused for this attitude,
for any man would become skeptical ti
he had had to deal with Ewing in the
past Instances when the expansion idea
was agitated.
However, at this time, it really seems
reasonable to believe Ewing may be in
earnest in his desire to bring about the
organization of an eight-club league. If
he is, he will do well to commence work
ing on the scheme immediately.
During the coming week the dear Seals
have a soft thing in playing the Vernon
misfits, and this should afford Ewing the
desired opportunity of getting away for a
little spin northwards. While Portland
was playing against the Seals, Walter
McCredie's hirelings gave the leaders so
much trouble that Cal had to stay on
hand to see that his umpires behaved
properly (toward San Francisco) ; but with
Vernon as the opposing team he should
not need the umps' assistance.
The northern attitude regarding expan
sion seems to meet rebuffs at both Seat
tle and Spokane, but only as far as the
baseball magnates themselves are con
cerned. The fans of those cities want the
better article of ball. They have enjoyed
good ball this season, but this has served
to whet their appetites for something bet
ter yet. They can get that better brand
only by joining the Coast League. Out
lawry, which would probably help some
clubs, will not be thought of by Dugdale,
Cohn and Schreeder when the tlme to
vote arrives.
Judge M-cCredie, during his spare time
at Seaside, expects to complete a table of
convincing figures which he Intends to
submit to all tWe moguls interested. As
he Is in a position to cite expense ac
counts in both leagues, his table should
ake interesting reading for the mag
nates, at least. If not the fans. Judge
McCredie will be gone at least one week,
and possibly ten days, though he antici
pates returning to Portland next Monday.
When he returns he may give out his
figures, or he may hold them until he has
conferred with Dugdale, Ewing and any
other of the interested moguls who may

JOHNSON SEES HOODOO
MEETS TWO BLACK CATS IN JIM
JEFFRIES' TOWN.
Despite Omen of Ill-Luck, Black
Pugilist Is Anxious to Try Con
clusions on Auto Speedway.
LOS ANGELES, Cal.. Aug. 22. (Spe
cial.) It is all off. Jack Johnson, the big
black pugilist, Is hoodooed for fair, and,
to use his own words, "Two black cats
done It." And in Jim Jeffries' home town,
too. While waiting for Tom McCarty to
come out of the Burbank Theater Satur
day the negro champion, who may some
day fight Jeffries if he ever gets over this
scare, noticed a black cat yawning and
stretching itself in the doorway of the
room. The champion Is not superstitious,
not he; but a black cat Is a black cat,
and everybody knows what that means.
The pug edged away, pussy seemed to
think It an invitation, and sprang into
his lap. There was a gasp, and McCarty,
appearing at the moment, yelled aloud
with dismay.
Later in the day the second hoodoo hap
pened. Johnson had gone for a second
conference with McCarty and had not
more than seated himself in a comfortable
chair when another black sat stalked
through the door and with a loud meow
sprang straight for the negro's lap.
Despite this double hoodoo, Johnson has
high ambitions in the automobile racing
game. Johnson declares he is no quitter
and that he has no "yellow streak" when
it comes to racing on the track with one
of the smoking gasoline death-dealing ma
chines. Somewhere back East he is cred
ited with having made a mile on a circu
lar track in 59 seconds, and ever since
that time he has been ambitious to try
conclusions with Barney Oldfield, but, as
he often declares, "Barney is as 'fraid of
him as Jeff."
JOHNSON IN GOOD SHAPE
Champion Pugilist Arrives In San
' Francisco.
SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 22. Jack John
son, the colored heavyweight fighter, ar
rived from Los Angeles today and will be
glng light training tomorrow. His work
will be done at Emeryville, on the Oak
land side of the bay.
"I am in good shape," said Johnson,
"and want to keep busy fighting. I con
sider my flght with Ketehel on October 12
a certainty.
"As for Jeffries. I don't think he will
ever flight me. In fact, I am willing to
bet my money that he will not fight me."

BY ARTHUR A GREENE.
A SATURNALIA of gaudily-dressed de
bauchery was held at the Bungalow
last night when the nastiest theatrical
exhibition that ever stirred the jaded
senses of a drooling old letcher was per
formed by a company of capable actors
who appear to be conspicuously shy on
the quality of shame. It was a disgrace
ful affront to decency and reflects dis
credit on all those responsible for its pre
sentation. The least offensive of the four acts, the
second, contains some funny speeches
which might be repeated in polite society,
and recalled the time when Paul M. Pot
ter, the dramatist, was in better business.
I sincerely trust that no man In that
large audience was accompanied by his
mother or sister.
Almost without exception the members
of the company are capital actors, notably
William Sellery, who piayed the hypo
critical college professor; Edward Bur
ton, who was seen as the Judge, husband
of the courtesan heroine, and Harry K.
Fowler, a talented character actor who
did the Deacon Wiggleford assignment.
Beth Tate, who was recently here with
"Babes in Toyland," did a bit acceptably.
The stage settings represent a consider
able investment.
The audience, which was a large one,
made one wonder that the moral sense
is so blunted in theatergoers, by cackling
immoderately like boys looking at a for
bidden peep show.
I am of the opinion that The Oregonian
does not care to discuss the details of
such a play God save the mark as "The
Girl From Rector's."
