Tacoma second baseman who was the unanimous choirs of Northwestern League critics for the Ail-c'tar keystone position last Fail, Is credited with being the author of the freaklrxt play recorded on the Paclflo Coast this season. "Rocky" aided putut by booting the ball. "We were playing Victoria in Ta coma when this strange bit of quN-k- tfttnklng took place." said Pitcher Bert Hall In a fanning; bee at the Franklin Hotel, "itaymer. now manager of t Canuck" team, was at bat and Ms of fering was one of those alow, reverse Ilnglish arounders which to often re suit In bits. The ball started on a tortuous course toward second. Itock- - en field came In like a shot, but the whirling sphere kept working- over to ward nrst. "Ko. ky saw he couldn't make th lsy In time to set Kaymer at first If he took the time to stop and then make the throw. Quick as a flash, he hauled bark his truity toe and kicked the ball. George Capron. In his palmiest drop-kicking days at the University of Minnesota, couldn't have placed It more accurately, for the pill went straight as a bullet Into First Baseman Flsner'a outstretched hands.

"Would yon believe it. that ball hit the e(d of my toe. bounced squarely Into my right palm and I turned and threw the runner out at second base. It was . one of the moat remarkable plays I 1 ever saw la all the years I have been In baseball since I drew my first par check bark In 1SS7. Buck Keith, well-known Portland baseball umpire, tells one that had an almost Identical reproduction In the Spokane-Portland series a week ago. Buck was umpiring In the Three-I League that season. "Red" Wright, later with the Oakland dub, was la the box. when the baiter soused one of those mile-a-mlnute liners straight at the pitcher. The ball hit Wright squarely on the temple and then bounced over Into the third baseman's hand. Local Instance Recalled. The local instance Is recorded In the ai-rount of the Portland-Spokane game of June 13. when Casey, of the Road sters, bounced one oft Pitcher Vlo llnlv's anatomy Into Third Baseman Nrtzrl's mitt. Umpire Longanecker railed Cany safe, hut later, when Captain ostdiek. of the Spokane club, notified the official scorer of a protest, lmganerker reversed his decision and Citsey was forced to beat It back to the bench. "I've got one that beats "em all." de clared Mike Lynch, the fighting man ager of the Tacoma tribe. "This, the queerest double play ever made, took place In 1907 during the Taeoma-po-kan aeries at Spokane. A ball was hit between left and renterflelds and Jark Clynes. left fielder, and I both went after It on the Jump, both yelling mine." "Well, he beat me to that ball by Just six Inches and the way we cam together'would make two railroad, lo comotives recoil with envy. Clynes dropped to the sward, clean out. d.-ad to the world, but he had that ball clenched In his right fist, as If In a vise. I Jumped to my feet as quickly as I could, wrenched the ball from hint and threw to third for a beautiful dou ble pLiy on Terry McKune. Jack Dren nan. now a resident of Portland, um pired the game. We had to carry Clynes off the field" Clynes la with BUI Carney In the Rock Island club In the Three-! League this year. He led the Western Canada circuit In clouting during 1M0. Nick Williams tells a good one on a "rookie" who applied for a Job with the Roadsters a few weeks ago. His exprl'n-e had been mainly on his home town lots. "Can you hit?" one of the boys asked hlra. -Teh." he replied. "I kin hit. I never git leen'n one hit er game. One day I got IS hits In one game and five of 'em was safe." For nerve of the unadulterated char acter, however. Jeker Baamgarten. who Is) umpiring the Tacoma-Portland series, has J. Rufus Walltngford tied to the footrall. Jakey used to be a tighter around Pan Francisco, they say. He also mixed In baseball, announcing Coast League games, catching In the various amateur leagues around the bay and generally managing to get Into the public eye at least once or twice every week. Baiungarten I Angry. There's Just one fellow I want to see after, this league season Is over." muttered Jakey yesterday. "That's thla man Warren wbo was let out by Ta coma. Warren went back to dan Fran cisco and told the papers there that during my umpire work In Tacoma otle day I called a ball on a batter and. when several In the grandstand shrieked 'Rotten, you robber.' I took oft my rap. walked back In front of the stand, bowed gravely and apologised by saying: " 'Pardon me. ladies and gentlemen, I missed that one.' -It's a lie. I never bowed at alt. Xelther did I take oil my cap. Nor did I apoloKlxe." A friend sent Jakey a clipping from an Oakland paper the other day. cut Crotn the "Queries and Answers" col- mn. bo me fan asked the worried writer If "Jakey Baumgarteu had enough nerve to make good as an um pire r- -We asked an Oakland fin who knows Jakey." reads the clipping.

Exceptionally fine fishing Is reported generally by the many hundreds of anglers who find time to visit nearby streams In pursuit of their favorite sport. There are many streams, rivers and creeks In the immediate vicinity of Portland which fairly teem ' with trout and other game fish. J. E. Culllson, Maurice Abrahams. Dick Carlon and Dr. Day, and their guest, Clarence Hatght of San Fran cisco, have Just completed a success ful trip to the Mackenzie River, where they enjoyed four days of fine fishing. This party had attended the sport of the Paclflo Coast "Indians" at Eu gene, and Immediately after that com petition Jack, Culllson and party Jour neyed up the Mackenzie In pursuit of their favorite sport- They put In four days above the Belknap bridge, fol lowing the various diverging streams In this paradise of sportsmen. They found fishing especially good. near the Junction -of the Blue River with the Mackenzie, and at the short rapids Just above the mouth of the Blue Klver. Side trips up the various little streams also resulted In handsome catches. . Mackenzie Teems With Trout. The Mackenzie River and its tribu taries are reported to be the habitat of millions of speckled beauties this season and Is seldom fished extensively. The Culllson party Journeyed 53 miles from Eugene to spots seldom visited by fishermen. Anglers who are looking for good streams do not have to go so far from Portland, however, for good fishing can be found within a few hours' ride of this city. Just out of Oregon City are several excellent fishing spots. The Molalla River, from 12 to IS miles east of Oregon City, affords fishing of the most satisfactory sort. In this stream, owing to the rough rapids. It Is necessary to fish from the bank or wade almost entirely, for It is almost impassable to boats. It can be forded at Intervals of 100 yards or so. Milk River is another stream within 15 or 18 miles of Oregon City where good fishing Is to be had. This stream Is much on the order of the Molalla. and Is full of large, gamey trout. Columbia River Streams Good. The many streams in Southern Wash ington emptying Into the Columbia River are also easily reached from Portland. In these the .finest of fishing Is to be had on the German, Abernathy or Mill creeks, a few miles out of Stella, Wash., a point on the Lower Columbia of easy access from Portland. The Kalama and Cowlitz, as well as the Coweman rivers, near the towns of Kalama anil Kelso, afford excellent angling for those who have not the time to make extensive Journeys. The Washougal and the Clatskanle Rivers, the former In Washington and the latter In Oregon, are also reported to be first-class trout streams this year. On the Washougal, which is 28 mile from Portland, a fisherman should go above the sawmill several miles beyond the dam. There Is splen did rainbow trout fishing In the Klick itat River above Wahkiacus. Wash, a PORTLAND LAST WEEK, AND THREE OF LEW SHAW'S DIFFICULT SHOTS ILLUSTRATED. Mi Jfexuecojsq ST fYAMHILLAAi point reached by way of Lyle, Wash., on the North Bank road. - The fisherman who delights In a long, rough hike in pursuit of his favorite sport can find it on Scappoose Creek, reached by the Astoria & Co lumbia River Railroad. Tlda Creek, be low Warren. Or., Is a great stream for salmon trout. Forest Grove Fishing Center. The Wilson River, reached by way of Forest Grove, and the Trask River, from Gaston, are streams whence fish ermen usually return wltn delignttui tales of their success, with the "goods" to show for their efforts. Another de lightful trip may be had by taking a vehicle from Sheridan, Or., and visit ing Wlllamlna Creek and adjacent streams, such as Agency Creek, the Grand Ronde River and the Little and Big Nestucca. Dairy Creek, from 10 to 15 miles in the foothills from Hillsboro, furnishes fine sport, as does Gales Creek, a like distance out of Forest Grove, though In the latter stream email fish for the most part predominate. Klamath May See Fast Contest. FORT KLAMATH Or.. June 24. (Special.) Manager James Dixon, of the Fort Klamath baseball team, is trying to get Klomatli Agency Indians and the Klamath Falls baseball teams to form a pool for a series of games July 4 for a purse of $700, the winning team to take 1500 and the second $200 His proposition Is for this town to raise $200. Klamath Falls $400 and the Agency $100. The Agency team has virtually agreed to this plan but so far no arrangements have been made with Klamath Falls, although tho mat ter Is reported being considered by the Fourth of July committee. The lo cals and Falls teams have played two rames this season and honors are even between them. KaaW , CUE RECORD L NG Lee Shaw Gives Remarkable Billiard Exhibitions. DIFFICULT SHOTS SHOWN Well-Known Player 19 Also Fine Player of Pool Schaefer Put Ahead of Hoppe as blaster of ; Game With tho Cue. BT TV. J. PETBAIN. During the past week one of the most expert bllllardlsts of the country gave a few demonstrations of his skill with the cue before the Commercial Club, and during his stay here the cele brated knight of the green cloth. Lew Shaw, told of many Interesting things concerning the game, and performed some remarkable feats with the cue. Lew Shaw is one of the veterans of the game of billiards, and, quite re markably, he is also a pool expert as well, though It la very seldom that an expert billlardlst Is found. who can also do as he wills with the pool balls. Pool and billiards are widely differ ent games, and a man very seldom Is accurate at both. Lew Shaw is. He can pl&y either pool or billiards with equal dexterity, and astonishes his audiences at his every appearance by the number and accuracy of his shots. Famous Experts Played. Tears ago Lew Shaw commenced the game of billiards, and in those days the balk line game was unknown, and he played with such stars as Jake Schaefer, Slosson, Vlgneaux and others, whose long runs became so monotonous under the straight rail game that bil liards was eventually revolutionized by the adoption of the balk line rule. The old time bllllardlsts were ac customed to making runs of from 800 to as high as 1800 at an Inning, so adept were they at manipulating tho cue. Then camo the balk line game and the high runs were decreased to such an extent that the contests be tween the experts became more even, and were more enjoyed by the specta tors at the championship matches. Bllliardists of Shaw's experience and ability, after the general adoption of the balk line rule, proved highly cap able at the new game, but did not abandon the straight rail game alto gether, as la evidenced by Shaw's work here during the past few days. While he plays most of his match games at 18.2 or 14.2 balk line, he Is also ready to engage anyone In the straight rail game and agrees to play 100 points or no count, by which is meant, Shaw will run 100 points or fall to count his string, and If he makes only 99 It would result the same as a miss on his first shot. During the week he played sev eral games at this handicap, and was victor each time. Fancy Shots Surprise. Shaw also gives exhibitions of fancy shots. Some of theoe are almost mir aculous. Fancy shots and finger manipulation of the billiard balls are Shaw's strong points. While he can hold his own at the straight or balk line billiard game with most of the ex perts, and also is willing to meet any of the pool champions, his greatest claim to fame Is his fancy shots. These shots are almost beyond description and should be seen to be appreciated. One of the most remarkable shots ex ecuted by Shaw Is a four-cushion masse shot counting on three balls. This shot has been the marvel of all wbo have seen his exhibitions. Another shot is a force draw in which he plays upon the one red ball, circles the white ball some distance up the table, and returns, caroming on the other red ball. This shot elicited the most attention of the billlardists, who watched the ex pert work. His finger billiard exhibition also created considerable excitement, for he manipulates the cue ball with his fing ers with marvelous dexterity. One of his finger shots consists of the carom ing of the cue ball off 20 stationary balls placed about the table. Another finerer exhibition was the sending of 20 balls In the swiftest possible succession about the table and grouping them in a semi-circle In a corner less than two feet wide.

Melville Long lost the title to Maurice E. McLoughlin, and Miss May Sutton defended her laurels by defeating Miss Mary Brown, of Los Angeles. In the Long-McLoughlln match, the first of what was scheduled as a series of five games, five of the ten points were made after deuce had been called. In one Instance It was deuce nine times before Long finally scored the point to his credit. Long Weakens Finally. Long weakened after the first game and McLoughlin, strong' and deliberate, won by a fine net pame, accompanied by terrific drives. The score: 6-4, 6-2. -2.
