McCredle had plenty of reserves and each battalion individually seemed to he the "goods," but somehow the whole lacked unity and the allies, under Hap Hogan, fell heavily on both flanks and the Beavers soon were "going south." Evans started the game for Portland and in the sixth, after the Tigers had xnade three runs on four hits, a reserve In the shape of Eastley came from the rear, but four more hits were taken off him. netting in all four runs for the Inning. Rleger Is Sent In. Then Rleger went in and he man aged to keep the Tigers chained, al lowing one hit. The Tigers assumed the offensive in the second inning. Rodgers ran over Into Doane's territory when Elliott filed up and in the scramble between Doane and Rodgers the ball went awry, al lowing Borton, who received free trans portation to first, to score the first of the seven tallies. In the third Carlisle doubled over third base and Leard brought him in with a single. Leard himself died on cannn1 w 1-1 or T- j-fc ati-ath TY .

Almost the first ball pitched tickled his fancy and he sent it sailing right over Ed vjreniii&er o auiu sign, iimniug uuca ui the longest home runs seen in the park this Summer and in several others. That marked the setting of Evans' sun. Eastley went all right In the fifth.- Then Rodgers made another er ror, at first, ana Wilhoit, who had re placed Risberg, was safe. Then fol lowed four hits, one of them a dou ble by Carlisle, and the result was four more runs. Carlisle C'sueht at Third. Carlisle himself was caught at third trying to stretch the lucrative double. A V. V, - 1. I . .. ln 4-WA Ape- In ning netted Portland its first run, scored by derrick. The second came ln the fifth, when Lober's touch was stamped by Bancroft's hit. Venice was all snap. The palm goes to Carlisle in particular for a couple of catches out ln left. The prettiest one was his reception of Doane's fly. This kept going and going and Carlisle twisted and sauirmed like a Dervish and then stabbed it with one hand.
