FAX FRANCISCO. Au. 1 (Special.)
a-Another one of these hand-to-hand
bitching duels between the two fero
Bloua ex-outlaws. "Doc" Mosklman and
Benny Henderson, was staged at the
Oakland ball yard today, and on thts
occasion Henderson wiped out old
scores and amerced winner by a I to 1
cor.
It was a contest arery foot of the
way. Moklran allowing Ave hits to
Henderson's four, and only the fact
that Buddy Ryan waa parading before
Jim Macutre, the Cleveland scout, pre
vented Moaklmtn from ccmlnf through
with a clean sheet.
Ryan came to bat In the fourth In
nlna; with two out. hoisted hla trou
sers, pulled down his cap. spat on his
hands and poled the ball through an
advertising slan on the right field
fence for a home run. In the seventh
It waa hla lucky bounder past Mohler
which put Sheehan In position to score
the winning run.
Ryan Is "Happy Guy."
After said hitting- Ryan smiled at
71m Masulre and made a run for the
dressing- room, dusted and packed his
uniformand he'a got nothing- to do
till tomorrow. Gee. he's a "happy e-uy."
That larrup of Ryan's In the fourth
was a legitimate homer, good for the
' circuit, but the Reavers' tally In the
seventh, which afterwards proved the
winning- run waa somewhat In the
nature of a fluke.
Sheehan walked aa a atarted and
Ryan rolled 'an easy one at Mohler.
The kid came In on the run to make
a fast play to ret the speedy Ryan and
Just when he set himself to handle the
ball. It took a bounce to right field
and Sheehan sprinted all the way to
third. I'.apps f.ew to Holland. Barry
then poked the ball through short for
single and Sheehan was able to score
from third.
Run Column Damaged.
The Fea!a combined two of their four
hits off Henderson In the seventh In
ning and damaged the run column.
McArdle whiffed as a starter but Oscar
V'ltt slammed to right held and made
two bases on It. Tennant waa on hand
with the timely single to center and
Vltt. by clever sprinting made the trip
around third to home. The score:

OLD-TIME PLAYER DEAD
SAMUEL A. VIGXETJX PASSsES AT
XYVXX, MASS.
CatcbersAlded Portland to Win Pen
nant In ItOl and Later Opened
Cafe Here Elks Mourn.
fiamuel A. Vlgneux. one of the most
popular Portland baseball players of for
mer days, died last week at a aanltaxlum
In Lynn. Mais. News of the death was
received here In a letter to Ed Schiller,
one of the gusrdlans appointed to look
after Vlgneux' eststo.
Ssm Vlgneux waa a native of Masa
chtwetts and his home was near Hoiyoke,
where he first branched out as a pro
fessional baseball player. After a short
season with Hoiyoke In 1M, psmmywent
to the Richmond team of tSe Virginia
League, where he waa battery partner
of the famous Jack Chesbro for two sea
sons. When the Portland team of the
Northwestern League was organised lif
1901. Vlgneux waa signed by John J.
Grim.
Portland won the pennant that year,
ar.d a great deal of the success con be
attributed to the fine catching of Vig
r.eux. who caught 101 out of the 1H games
played thst season. "Bammy would tiave
got It." Is a cry quite familiar to all
Portland fans. Even at thts late date
that old familiar chant Is heard when
ever a catcher falls to got a foul fly.
Vlgneux waa one of the surest catchers
of pop fouls ever seen In Portland.
In 1I snd 13. the latter year being
the first of the FacMo Coast League,
Sam Vlgneux was mansger of the Port
land team, having succeeded Jack Grim.
Aa) manager of the Portland team Vlg
neux was a popular favorite, but In 193
he met with a severe accident which
handicapped his work and no doubt had
much to do with the poor showing of
Portland's first Psclflc Coast -League
team. The following year Vlgneux re
signed the management and entered bust
neas In Portland.- opening a cafe on
Washington street near Fourth. Later
he opened a larger and handsomer, place"
at the corner of Sixth and Washington
streets, and was doing a big bulness
when be was attacked by paresis, which
eventually resulted In the loss of his
mind and his commitment to a sani
tarium. Vlgneux wss a member of the Port
land Lodge No. 141 B. P. O. Elks. He
was unmarried. The funeral was held
at Hoiyoke, Mass.. last Sunday.
.Astoria to Tay Athletes Way.
Tha Astoria Centennial Committee
denies the Los Angelea story that the
expenses would not be forwside 1 to
the southern athletes who are To com
pete In the Pacific Coast championship
track meet to be held In Astoria during
the coming Celebration. The committee
declares that the necessary money has
aiready been sent to Ixs Angeles and

Victoria Is Unable to Cope
With Tonneson Except in
Second Inning.
WILLIAMS SLAMMED HARD
Roadsters Pile Up Six Tallies on
Canadians, Which Is Plenty to
Win rmplre McCarthy Has
Bad Day, Xo Damage Done.
Nick Williams trotted out Bill Ton
neson. the big southpaw twirler of the
Roadsters' staff yesterday, and Portland
made It four straight from the forlorn
cellar champions from Victoria, Score.
S to Z.
Tonny" was all to the good except
In the second Inning when the Bees
bunched a trio of drives, two of which
were for extra sacks, and In that
frame they tallied the brace of runs
all they were able to register durlnff
the afternoon.
On the other hand the Roadsters
alammed Jack Williams, the Kanaka
heaver, hard and when the final cur
tain descended the home guard had
amassed a half dozen tallies.. an ele
gant and sufficient number to stow the
game away In the Portland win column.
The Roadsters did not delay their
scoring work, getting busy with W11-.
lims In the opening frame and a couV
pie of runa resulted.
Beea Even Up Score.
Stovall went out. but Eddie Mensor
rapped a choloe one to the score board
for three aacka. Mundorff hiked, and
Nick Wllllama blew a long fly to Mil
lion on which Mensor tallied and Mun
dorff tripped to mldstatlon on the
toss-In. Pettlgrew kept up his batting
record of the previous day by singling
to center, tallying Mundorff. The Bees
evened up the score In the second when
Ward opened up on Tonneson with a
triple. Houston was disposed of. but
Clementson slipped a single to center
which tallied Ward, and 'Pinky Grin
dell poked out a double which tallied
the ex-Washington University lad.
That ended the gaiety for the Cana
dians. Tonneson permitted no more
frlvallty on the part of the visitors.
Portland took the lead In the fifth
and continued to Increase the total in
the aixth and eighth frames. In the
fifth. Mundorff singled, stole second
and tallied on Pettlgrew's second time
ly hit. In the sixth, a pass to Otto
Moore. Stovall's double and Mensor's
Infield tap sent a couple of more runs
clattering over the register, and in he
eighth Moore walked again and tallied
the last run on Coltrln's sacrifice and
Stovall's Infield tap.
Umpire McCarthy had a bad day, but
hla mistakes had no material effect
upon the result, as It waa Portland's
game all the way. Score:

Xotes of the Game.
With four straight victories hanging to
their belts tha Roadsters are going after
the fifth gsma this afternoon.
The Victoria team possesses some excel
lent material, but Is lacking In so many
places that Its position in the race Is eaay
to be figured.
Pettla-rew hss blossomed Into a pinch-
hitter of considerable ability, tor ha has
Ogurad materially In tha last threa games.
Umpire McCarthy ruled Pettlgrew out at
second In the seventh whan Keller plainly
dropped the bail. As soon as the umpire
turned his back. Ash Houston nabbed the
ball and heaved it to uooaman, du aic
Cartby did not see.
Otto Moora distinguished himself In sev.
ersl different ways yesterday, for he made
a two-bagger and walked three times In
four trips to tha plate. He also winged
three of the Bees out at secona.
Tonneson pitched grsnd ball after the
second Inning, for na allowea two nits in
the last seven Innings. Both of these were
two-baggers, but did not count lor any
thing.
Tea Million went after Eddie Mensor's
trlrjla In tha first Inning like a collegian
short sprinter In a final heat, and this
alone deprived Eddie of a homer, for Mil
lion threw far and accurately Into the dia
mond when he retrieved tne oaii.
In the eighth Inning Goodman hit to
Williams, who threw to Tonneson, covering
the bag. Tonneaon made the out all right,
but Ooodman collided with him a moment
later, knocking the ball out of his hand,
and McCarthy called the runner aafe when
he had started for Ms club s oencn mint
ing himself out
Outfielder Ward, of the Bees, made a long
threo-ba.se drive on his nrst appearance

HUXTER IS XOT LIKE FIGHTER
OF 18 MOXTHS AGO.
Ex-Champion , Heavyweight Actually
Smiles to San Francesco News
paperman on Way to Alaska.
BAN FRANCISCO. Aug. J. (Special.)
James J. Jeffries.- hunter, and James
J. Jeffries, fighter, are two different
men, with diverse personalities.
Jeffries, the fighter, when he came
from the .East some eighteen months
ago, after his announcement that he
would meet Jack Johnson, and articles
had been signed, was a- man bear. He
pulled down the shades to his state
room when he passed through such
points as Sacramentovs lest the anxious
crowd of- several hundred that had
waited long hours, might look at htm.
Newspapermen, forethe most part, had
to take their Interviews .second-hand,
through Bam Berger. for the then re
tired champion was tn no mood to hold
conversation. "
Jeffries, the huntsman, came In today
from Los Angeles on the steamer
Beaver, headed for the wilds of Alaska
and big game hunting. Not a friend
wSs at the dock to greet the man who
a little more than a year -ago waa ac
corded more space than kings or presi
dents. Just one lone newspaper man
stood there, and to him Jeffries, from
the steamer as it waa being docked,
waved his hand In greeting and smiled
a smile that was never aeen at Rowar
denan or Moano Springs.
"How about a photograph?" Jeffries
was asked. "We haven't bothered you
for over a year, you know."
Jeffries smilingly .acquiesced and ob
ligingly moved to the starboard side
of the Beaver, where the sun was shin
ing brightest, and. along with Brother
John, Captain Nelson and other officers
of the Beaver, posed until the camera
man declared that he had enough.

Cincinnati Scout Annoyed Be
cause He Cannot Get Ryan.
BEAVER-NAP ALLIANCE HIT
Garry Hermann's Agent Intimates
Farming Law Is Being Disobeyed
When He Hears Cleveland Has
First Call on "Our Buddy."
BT ROSCOB FAWCETT.
Bill Lane, scout for Garry Herr
mann's Cincinnati Nationals, is the lat
est to join the vitriol chorus against
the alleged Cleveland-Portland alliance.
At home in San Francisco, after his
tour of the Northwest. Lange is emit
ting vocal nltro-glycerine calculated to
strike terror to the heart of McCredle,
with Buddy Ryan as the fuse. .
Lantre, it appears, -was commissioned
by Herrmann to purchase Ryan fo the
Reds at any price. There was no rec
ord at National Commission headquar
ters that Cleveland had a right to him
under an optional agreement, but the
ex-Chicago gardener soon found out
differently, when Walt McCredle In
formed him that Cleveland had a sure
enough string on Ryan and that Co
mlskey stood next In the waiting line.
"Looks as If the farming law has
gone Into disuse," declared the dis
gruntled Lange.
The Cincinnati scout announces that
he has signed Miles Netzel. Spokane
third sacker; who was sold to Cohn by
Portland; Outfielder Ed KIppert, of the
Spokanes. and Pitcher Schmutz, of Ta
coma. Netzel has been playing a
greatly Improved game at the difflcult
corner this season and is sending show
ers of splinters oft every fence In the
circuit. '
The "class" of the trio Lange has
picked up seems to be Outfielder Kip
pert. KIppert held forth in the West
ern Canada league two years ago and
was secured In the spring of 1910 by
Spokane. He is a perfect fielder, ex
tremely fast and can bing the globule
with a clocklike regularity. Schmutz
Is a tall, rangy youngster, who shows
signs of future greatness. -
Holland. San Francisco's new outfield
romper, got away well in his Initial
week with the Seals. An examination
of the records shows his average to be
close to the .310 notch, ahead f Pow
ell's. Smith, the other Seal recruit, is
down to .458. Kane, of the Vernon
crew, seems to be one of the disappoint
ments of the year. The "rabbit" is
near the, tail-end of the list, despite
the predictions made by Windy City
critics when Kane was shoved west
ward. " , ,
Jimmy Whalen, ex-Sacramento twirl
er. who Joined Hogan last week after a
long sojourn in the hospital, has quit
the game for good this year, but will
report to Vernon for the 1912 workouts.
A great many fans think Whalen Is "all
in," but Hogan seems to possess the
faculty of getting results out of men
cast off by other managers. Castleton
Is an example. Dillon thought him a
hopeless case and released him. but the
big fellow with the classic features
began winning right away for the
"Little Rascals." as baseball writers in
California have dubbed the Vernon
Convicts.

Baseball stars of unusual brilliancy
are credited with receiving fabulous
sums for six months' services. Ten
thousand dollars is the' top-notch fig
ure frequently mentioned, while $8,000
rumors are as copious as war -scares.
Little, however, Is heard anent umpires'
compensation.
"Ump" McCarthy, here this week, de
clares that the high prize of the arbi
trating field Is approximately 16.000 for
a season's work. The salaries In both
major leagues run evenly, starting in
with about 2.400 and running up to
the aforementioned sum.
The Pacific Coast League, the Ameri
can Association and the Eastern
League pay their Judges about the
same, the monthly pay checks center
ing around $300.
Leagues like the Northwestern have a
sliding scale, reaching as high as- $250
per month.

Danny O'Brien,' the latest Portland
representative to essay the four-round
game at Panama-Expositlonville. writes
that he is rematched with Rufe Tur

that O'Brien was not awarded a deci
sion over Rufe Turner recently, the
referee giving Turner a very unpopular
draw.
"I boxed Turner and everyone says
I earned the decision. Willie Ritchie
and I were negotiating for a match, but
Ritchie wanted $400 for his end. so it
was called off," says O'Brien. "If I am
successful in beating Turner this time
I will be 'in' strong here."
O'Brien seems to be the hardluck
hearthstone. California papers give

BEAVERS TO PLAY CENTRALIA

Game W ill Probably Be Played on
Open Date Next Week.
CENTRALIA, Wash.. Aug. 3. (Spe
cial.) It is likely that a baseball game
will be played early next week be
tween the Portland Coast League club
and the Centralia State League team.
The game will be played on one of the
open dates of the Beavers, as Manager
McCredle has signified his willingness.
There is much speculation by Cen
tralia fans as to how many of the local
men are of big league caliber, and the
coming game will enable them to show
what they are worth. Six of the Cen
tralia playors have had previous big
league experience, and It Is only a
question of a short time until they re
turn to faster company If they main
tain their present standard of playing.
