BY ItOSCOB FAWCETI.
Portland inaugurated the Venice se
. ries yesterday Dy vanquishing Hogan's
tabbies by a score of 7 to 4. Irve Hig
' ginbotham performed in his usual
i opening day style and had the Tigers
i in the glove of his hand throughout
: the entire contest. Meanwhile the
Beavers were larruping Southpaw Hitt
i so hard that he was forced into obscur
; ity in five strenuous rounds. Singles,
I double, triples and a home run over the
; right field fence by Kores made up the
' liberal assortment off the portly port-
sider. I
Clarence Smith, late of the Chicago
"White Sox, succeeded Hitt and stopped
the cannonading. In three innings only
; one run pattered across, and that re
: suited from a walk to Brashear and
' Doane's double down the first base
line. Doane secured the lone hit . off
; Spindly Smith.
Among other stars of the contest
' was the former Venice captain. Hoy
Brashear. Brashear played first base
i in lieu of Derrick, and, much to Happy
i Hogan's mortification, secured two hits
; and a walk in four trips. Kodgers also
' starred with the hickory.
Beavers In Bad Condition.
Portland's team finished yesterday in
i a badly patched up condition. Der
I rick's wife is ill. and that kept the
Southerner out of uniform ; Speaa is
; nursing a bung-up thumb, and, to
; add to the woes. Buddy Ryan had to
: quit after one inning because' of his
twisted ankle. Bancroft filled in at
center.
The Beavers opened with a rush in
the first inning. Davis walked and
; Itodgers scored him with a screaming
; triple against the center field fence,
! quite a feat for a left-handed batter
i against a southpaw.
',' The Tigers evened up in the second
!. inning, when Bancroft misjudged Mc
. Ardle's liner and it went for two sacks.
Elliott scored ltonus.
Not one whit abashed, the McCredie
clan resumed the bombardment in the
; last of the second and drove three runs
j across.
' Two More Runs Scored.
! Lober walked and was caught at third
i when he failed to slide on Brashear's
1 single. Fisher followed with a single.
! and Brashear scored on Higginbotham's
i double into right. Doane was. nicked
; on the cap with a wild shoot, filling
j the bases. Davis' sacrifice fly and
1'Rodgers' single brought in two more
! runs.
j Hitt fared smoothly until the fifth,
! when two more were annexed, and then
Hogan chased friend Royal. Bancroft's
single to short and Kores' home run
complete the story, in tabloid. Lober
;:also singled, but was caught pilfering
;, third.
The Beavers were breezing along so
"far ahead that everybody let up in the
.. eighth, and Venice ran three men
across the plate before the bars let
down.
McArdle went safe on TCores' error
- and ambled to third when Doane booted
BUiott's single. Leard's single and
Meleon's two-bagger fiinshed the busi
ness. Higginbotham then tightened and
that was all. Score: '

! Xotes of tlie Game.
' The Tigers hopped off the Shasta
; ; Limited at 1:30 o'clock but took their
time reaching the park. Consequently
I ; the game was started 40 minutes late.
; Hogan had plenty of pepper on tap,
I : however, and few demurred at the wait.
: , "You'll go home before the third in
;' nlns, anyway," was Hap's retort to
; . the only voice lifted in complaint.
Fred Derrick was at his wife's bed
i ide in a local hospital and as Bill
! . Speas is carrying- a bandaged thumb
; -itoj- Breashear held down the initial
"": cushion.
Portland lost a cinch tally in the
second Inning- when Lober failed to
slide into third on Brashear's single to
center. Fisher sing-led on the next
pitched ball. Lober hud the ball beaten
easily but had some mixup evidently
in his signal bureau on the coaching
line.
Hap Hosran brought hisx entire team
north with the exceptjon of Speck
JIarkness and Johnny Kane. Both are
indisposed.
Bill Rodgers featured the third in
ning with a star stop on Bayless'
ground ball.
"Too poor for Venice, eh?" chal
lenged one rancous . fan when Hoy
Brashear bagged hi3 second hit into
center field.
llosp, at third, is tho only holddover
in the Venice infield. Borton. at. first,
is a southpaw "and not so bulky and
cumbersome as advance notices would
have us believe.
Powell, who will twirl today, op
posing Krause, is a monster. There
will be no need of a curtain over the
fence advertisements when Powell is
twirling.
Clarence Smith, who relieved Hitt in
the sixth, has a windup like a folding
hitrack. He i a tall, spindly young
fellow and is the same who defeated
Portland one year ago at Visalia. He
was with the White Sox then.
Dutch Kores pulled his first error of
the year at third base yesterday and
It resulted in a run. Korea says he
likes third base much better than short
stop. At any rate the switch has
greatly improved his fielding-.
Rowdy Elliott twisted his side slid
ing into second in the eighth inning
and Bliss replaced him. -
After letting Ellott's single trickle
through his legs in the eighth. Walter
Doane brought down the house with
a great running catch off Bayless. The
latter retaliated in the last of the
eighth with a grand stab that robbed
Higginbotham of a safety.
BREAKS BEST AGAIXST SEALS
Oaks Capture Game Replete AVith
Home Runs and Tvo-Baggers.
SAX KRANCISCO, April 21. In a
game replete with misplays and long
distance hitting, Oakland captured the
first game of its series with San Fran
cisco here today by a margin of one
run, which came after two men were
out in the last half of the ninth Inning.
Four home runs, five two-baggers
and 18 singles were about evenly jil
vided between the two teams. The Oaks
were lucky to have men on the bases
when extra base hits occurred, and
most of the breaks were against the
Seals. Each team used two pitchers.

nothing more on the ball than he has
on his knee, and that's a bandage, but
the Indians smashed back, drove Leon
ard from the rubber in the middle of
the game and by tightening contortions
of fielding for the last four inning,
saved Smith and won 9 to 6.
Milligan's single in the second inning
and an error of Lewis' put Milllgan on
third and Williams' blow put Mllligan
over the plate. Guigni's bunt was
thrown to second to get Williams, was
late and both runners were safe. A
sacrifice and Murray's single then sent
In two more runs. From the second
inning to the seventh Portland contin
ued lambasting the ball, but had no
luck,. Danny Shea's arm being too
strong on heading off steals, but in the
seventh more fireworks began. Coltrin
singled, likewise Callahan and Netzel,
a run scoring.
While Smith was in distress his
backing teammates were doing stunts
on hard-hit balls, and Lynch let Smith
stay, praying he would get by. Just
after Perle Casey, In foghorn tones, in
the eighth inning read the telegram to
the stands that bombarding had begun
at Vera Cruz (loud cheers), Williams
came up and bombarded a ball so hard
that it looked good for two bases, but
he was short at second by an eyelash.
After that the singles by Portland were
too scattered to help.
Callahan, who went in in the fifth
for Portland, was ineffective in that
inning, but he had nothing on the rest
of his team at that, for he was given
miserable support. The Spokane bat
ters crossed the Portland Infield in ad
dition, and when two runners should
have been retired there were three on
the sacks and none out. On the second
leg of an attempted double play, Cal
lahan to Murray, and a try for Wil
liams' mitt, the ball hit Wuffll, who was
speeding to first,, caromed into right
field and two runs came home.
After that the jinx was on Portland.
and with the exception of the seventh
inning, desperate playing by Spokane
kept Portland runners from the plate.

Charley Abbey, of the old Portland
club of 1891. is now a resident of Seat

mands it. ,
Fate is "crewell" to some folk. Take
Clarence Smith, of the Venice pitching
staff, as an example. Harried by San
Francisco fans during the Spring series
with the White Sox. Smith retorted:
'I should worry; we'll be back in the
United States next week."
Callahan sold him to Venice two days
later, so Smith still is out here where
the citizens have to seek shelter inside
stockade overnight to protect them
selves from the assaults of the red
skins. Christy Mathewson is writing a new
book called "Pitcher Pollock." Christy
tells of a youth's struggle for fame
and how he finally succeeded by mas
tering the "fadeaway." Seems to us the
Saturday Evening Post scooped Christy
on that plot about a year ago.

escaped death only through the aid of
a companion keeper. He was dragged
from the bear pit, wounded in many
places, after the bitterest encounter
between man and beast In the history
of the Zoological Garden.
Several hundred persons, attracted
from ull parts of the garden by Frae
ter's cries, watched and grew hysterical
as Praeter was floored time and again
by the giant paws of the bear. He was
on the point of exhaustion when Julius
Dages, another keeper, finally beat off
the bear with u shovel and dragged
Praeter to safety. He had been bitten
on the legs, thighs and arms and his
flesh was torn and bruised.
Ocean Traffic Impossible.
Christian Herald.
Several decades ago a learned pro
fessor delivered a course of lectures,
in one of which he proved to his own
satisfaction that the Atlantic Ocean
could never be crossed by steam. Steam
power had been discovered and applied
on land, but he was confident it could
never be applied to the ocean. Under
the peculiar conditions of the heaving
waves, the danger of storms, the roll
ing of the tide, etc., you could never
apply steam to navigation across the
Atlantic. The book in which that lec
ture was published was on the first
steamer that crossed the Atlantic The
captain took it along as a sort of
curiosity. That book did not have a
very large sale, but there has been
quite a run of steamers ever since, and
tho professor ceased to arguo that
bteam could riot be utilized on the
ocean
