Ths cone Titrated attark which h
Tfteen developed by tho Tla-ere dnrlna;
th past three wwks resulted In anoth
er victory thla afternoon, tho Portland
Roadsters taklnc down tho abort end
of a 4-to-S iiiml
While the early part of tho proceed
Ins were enlivened by the ejectment
of Manacer Williams, of too Roadsters,
for disputing the decision of Umpire
Baamaarten when he called Abbott
safe on an air-tie-ht pier, the remainder
of the pastime was run off tn an or
cerljr and gentlemanly manner.
It has seldom been the rood fortune
of the local fans to see an exhibition
siich aa wss put up by lundorf this
afternoon. He not only not three hits,
one of which wss earned by speed
alone, but he likewise played a game
In the field whir h was filled with
features which would draw In the saw
dut rlnr.
The victory secured by the Timers
wss due to the hunchlns: of hits. In
five Inntnaa. safe hits were secured and
In four of these, scores were recorded.
True. Ahbott had to make a home run
to mske this effective, but this fest
added to that athletes popularity. The
absence of Mensor. who haa been sus
pended pendtnc an Investigation of
Ms row with Householder yesterday,
and Williams made some difference and
It wss not to the disadvantage of tne
locals.
Tiie failure of the visitors to score
wsa due larcelr to tne prowess of f'ed
Annla. the left-handed wizard from Los
Anseles. In but one Inning the sev

of the old National League during the
regime of Pop Anson. Radboume,
Chris Von der Ahe and others, waa In
Portland yesterday and incidentally
flung a few shots Into the "lively1
baseball, to which he attrlbutea th
downfall of the Players' League In the
early us.
Carroll began his diamond career
with the BloomlntTton. I1L. club In 1(74.
Charles Hutchlns, secretary of the
Portland Rose Festival, managed
Bloomlngton that year and tha two
exchanged many reminiscences durlnr
Carroll's visit. "Farmer" later played
with the Providence, Washington.
Pittsburg, Detroit. Chicago, St. Louis
and Boston teams, respectively, closing
his wonderful career with the Boston
pennant winners in 184.
"Deader" Ball Favored.
"I have been reading Tha Oregonlan
steadily and am much Interested in tha
discussions over the new cork-centered
ball." aald Carroll, who lives on a 125,.
000 orchard ranch at Lebanon, Or., pur.
chased from the frulta of baseball. "I
am most certainly for the 'deader balL
Listen to this:
"In 1S90 the Players" Leagus had
most of the best athletea in the country
on its rolls. Tha National League was
plodding along with a handful of stars
and the remainder of the teama made
up of players recruited from the East
era Leatrue and tbe Western As.ocl
atlon. By June of that year the high-
score gamea in the Players League and
the pitchers' battlea In the National
made the public believe that the Na
tional waa the faster. This was a fal
lacy. Aa a matter of fact, the Players'
League uaed a lively ball, while the
National used a 'dead' ball. The lively
ball, aa much aa anything else, killed
the Players circuit.
"At the end of 180 the eight clubs
forming the organisation had 7364 runs
to their credit, made on the basis of a
133-game schedule. Last season the
teama of the National League scored
f004 runs In a lS4-game schedule. In
that earlier year New Tork made 101'C
tallies In 133 games. Last season tha
Olants scored 71S runs in 155 games.
Boston, the league champions in 1890,
scored S8 runs, while the Cuba last
year mads 711 runs.
"Of course the foul strike rule had
not come Into being In 1830, but. on
the other band, the pitcher's box waa
to feet from tha plate Instead of CO.
aa It now la"
Early Pajs Strenuous.
Carroll says tha present-day player
haa things rather soft compared to tha
hardships of tha pioneers. When he
first began hla career fielders' pads
were unknown. Tha catcher used ordi
nary kid glovea with the fingers cut
out and a chunk of rubber between hla
teeth Instead of the modern mask.
In 1831. when Chris Von der Ahe wsa
bossing the St. Louts Club. Carroll
starred In the famous "pocket" play,
which la banded down In big league
lore as one of the most remarkable on
record.
"I was playing left field for St- Louts
that year." Carroll said, -with runners
on second and third, tbe batter lined
out a scorcher over the third baseman'a
head, f came tn and lunged at tbe ball,
but It ripped through my fingers and
wedrred down In ray shirt pocket. There
It stuck, defying my frantic efforts to I
OAKS ARE HERE TODAY
DOtTBLK-HEADER TO MARK
OPEXLVG OP SERIES.
Sea ton and Steen Mill Pitch for
Portland and PernoII and ITa
, tcr for Oakland-
Portland and Oakland, the two lead
era In tbe Coast League race, will be
gin the first aeries of the aeason on
the Portland diamond with two holiday
gamea today, one at 10:30 A. M. and
the second at 1:10 P. M. Beaton will
twirl the forenoon contest and Steen
the afternoon for Portland. PernoII
and Fiater will probably do alab duty
for Wolverton.
Oakland has taken a majority of Its
games from Los Angeles, Sacramento
and San Francisco, but Vernon and
Portland have proved stumbling blocks,
McCredle's men taking five of the first
even games and Vernon 10 out of 14.
The Oaka are always fighting, how
ever, and promise to turn the tables on
the Beavers.
In the San Francisco series, which
closed on the local diamond Sunday
afternoon, the Beavers fell down ap
preciably with 'the stick. Ryan Held
up with eight hits In 10 trips to the
plate, and Krueger and Pecklnpaugh
held their heads above water. The
figures for the aeries are: Ryan. .400,
Krueger, .131, Pecklnpaugh .267. Rappa
.235. Murray .300, Kuhn .200, Sheehan
.188. Rodgera .167, Cbadbourne .158,
Henderson .141. Steen Seaton, Barry
and Koestner .000.
Shew, of San Francisco, batted .368
for the week, Tennant .316 and Mu
Ardle .278.
Manager McCredie. of the Portland
squad, had expected to spend Monday
at Tacoma looking over a couple of
promising - looking youngsters for
Cleveland, but a slip In train connec
tions put the quietus on that. Pitcher
Gordon la rumored to be one of tha
men Cleveland la sweet on. McCredie
will probably go North next Monday.
The Pacific Coast League schedule
this week finds Los Angeles at San
Francisco, Sacramento at Vernon and
Oakland at Portland.

If a man who depends upon his daily earnings plans to paint
