THE death by drowning of Captain James Keating, of .Astoria, a few days ago, has cast a shadow of gloom over tho members of the Portland Motorboat Club. Captain Keating waa a prime favorite with the local en thusiasts, and resolutions of condolence will likely be framed at the next meet ing of the Portland trustees. There is one story connected with Keating that has never been told. It has to do with the Astoria regatta last September. Unknown to ail but a few of those on the inside. Captain Keat ing handled the main sheet of, the yacht Virginia, of Portland, in the Columbia River yacht championships, disguised behind a fierce looking beard. George Kinnear. an officer of the Portland Motorboat Club and a warm admirer, of Mr. Keating s, released the secret yesterday. "The Virginia, owned by T. J. Men denhall, of Portland, was considered the fastest iu Its class but it finished poorly.' said Mr. Kinnear. "Somebody protested the big race, however, and it was ordered run' again the following day. "Now, I have known Captain Keat ing for years, added Mr. Kinnear, and, as he Is one of tnt greatest sailors on the Coast and knows the 10-mile course like a book. I conceived the Idea of getting him to sail Mendenhall's boat. Mr. Mendenhall agreed so I approached Captain Keating. " 'But I am commodore of the Astoria IS ONE OF YOUNGEST MEN IN Motorboat Club and It wouldn't look right, expostulated Keating. " Oh, I'll fix you up," I replied. And I did. I rigged him out with a disguise that would have baffled Tigris. Nobody knew him. "The Virginia did not win, however, because Mr. Mendenhall finally de cided to man the tiller himself, and shunted Captain Keating to the main sheet. The boat finished tu.rd. The Sparrow, Frank Creasey's boat, won the title." . Baseball Statistics STAS DINGS OF THE TEAMS. National League. W. L. Pet.! W. L. Pet. Phlladel... Id 7 .66'Chlcago. ... lo lo -o" Brooklvn..

J" ii. yi g .-ant" ;rv -f ft NORTHWESTERN CIRCUIT TTl HITTER IN HOSPITAL Operation Keeps Bill Lindsay Out of Game Team Wins 6 of 11 on Road. PITCHERS WORKING WELL Pacific Coast League Clubs Get Cn til Jane 1 Before Cutting town j .' to Twenty-Man Limit Pro tests Are Nullified. BY ROSCOE FAWCETT. Portland's two consecutive victories over 'the Los. Angeles Seraphs In the Coast League, arter the loss of three straight earlier in the week, have served to revive the fleeting hopes of local fandoni. The Beavers have won six out of 11 games thus far on the trip away from home and that is certainly play ing at a first division clip. If they get away with one of the two games scheduled for today not even the most pessimistic can cavil or rant. But, the joy at the double victory is somewhat nullified today by the an nouncement that Bill Lindsay, star third sacker, is in the hospital con valescing from an operation. . Manager McCredle conveyed this bad news to President McCredle in a letter received last night. Presumably Lindsay has been nipped by the same trouble which put him out of commission last year. Bill spent a portion of last Winter In Johns Hopkins Hospital and professed to be entirely recovered. He declared, during the Spring preliminaries, that he suffered absolutely no pain In the groin, and looked forward to a good season. As Lindsay has been batting around .325 rranking first on the Portland Coast squad :his absence is sure to cripple the Beavers even though Mike McCormick is playing third with much finesse. But, with or without the hard-hitting Southerner, Portland fans need pre pare no outriders to dispatch back over the trail to locate the AA Beavers. They may lose both games today 'to Los An geles or they may take both, but one thing Is sure, McCredie's minions will give a good account of themselves. They are coming strong and when Art Krueger. Chet Chadbourne and Justin Fitzgerald once start sousing the leather at their normal clip watch the pyrotechnics. a a The pitchers are, still fulfilling pre dictions. Bill James has now won three straight victories away from home, two from -Sacramento and one from Los Angeles. Higglnbotham, too. is coming through and so Is Hi West although he lost to the Angels. Gene Krapp's feat of holding the Angels for 12 long Innings sihows that the little wet-goods deceiver is to be serlouly reckoned with, while Hagerman should strike his stride ere another month rolls by. Mac Is not using Carson while his big fellows are going good, but Al is a valuable man to have around. The Beavers remain in Los Angeles this week to play the Venice club. a a a The Pacific Coast League teams have been granted' a month's extension in the 20-man limit rule.' President A. T. Baum wrote National Secretary Farreil some time ago deploring the fact, that 20-man regulation May l works a hardship on the Coast clubs.. "You may have until June 1, re plied FarrelL This means mat tne several protests that have been filed with President Baum will be thrown Into the waste basket. a a Izzv Hoffman, ex-Oak and ex-Scal. recently released by Del Howard, of San Francisco, has caught on with Baltimore In the International League. Tom Raftery. another former seal, is still traveling. Ewtng released him last season and he went to Wilkesbarre in the New York State League. Wilkes barre sold him to Mobile of the South ern League and now Tom has drawn an unconditional release.

At Portland Portland-Victoria game post poned, rain. , At Seattle Seattle 8. Vancouver 1. At Tacoma Tacoma 8, Spokane 3. BY ROSCOE FAWCETT. Rain caused a cancellation of yester day's game betwen Victoria and Port land on the local diamond and the two Northwestern League clubs will resume hostilities at 2:30 this afternon. The count for the series stands three games for Nick Williams' Cblts and two for Victoria, so if the Colts win today they will finish with two game- to the good. Hynes will likely twirl for Portland and Narveson for Victoria. It is pretty tough to have a release slipped to you almost on the eve of your wedding day. That's the tough luck under which Chris Mahoney of the Portland 3olts sailed last week. The former Fordham College star pitcher is to be married Tuesday to a Sacramento girl. Miss Sn.nn. a sister of Jimmy Shinn of the Sacramento club. "I'm going through with the cere mony despite my release by Portland," said Mahoney yesterday to a friend. "We will be married here in Portland, and I hope to catch on with some other Northwestern league team before the wees: is out. Chris Is one of the finest fellows that ever played for Portland, but he had to go to make room for a utility man good both for Infield and outfield duty. mm Ward McDowell, former Colt second baseman, is now holding down the key stone sack for the Toledo club of the American Association. Mao created good impression at Cleevland, but the Toledo team Is proving such a fizzle as a result of the exportation of sev eral stars to Portland, that the Naps had to do something to bolster the mud hens. Toledo fans are so Licensed at the handling of the club by President Somers, of Cleveland, who owns the franchise, that a stock company is be ing organzed to take over the team. An offer of $100,000 has been made Somers, but he is holding out for something like -'23,000. a s a Bill James, the Seattle graduate,, won another game for the Boston Nationals yesterday, defeating Joe Tinker's Cin clnatl Reds 6 to 2. James and Bert Whaling, his battery mata, are to be members of Mlque Fisher's Australia barnstormers who will tour the Antip odes the coming Winter. a a a Failure to hit may cost Lou Nordyke his Job with Tacoma. Kennedy has been used a few times at rirst base, ana u he shows good Lou may get the good bye sign. Nordyke started out . a same way in 1910 for Spokane, but struck his stride abo'-i June 1, and, after that, the veteran drove In more runa than all the other members of the team combined. He led the league In hitting at the finish. Nordyke owns an apple ranch at Leavenworth, a few miles from Wen atchee, so does not need to worry. He started out as manager of Victoria last year, but broke his leg and was let out In mldseason. He Is sure to hit and McGinnlty will make a mistake ir he lets him go.

Fishing Notes A MOVEMENT is being organized in Fortland and Oregon City, in fact 11 over the state, to pass an initiative law to close the Willamette River en tirely to ne. fishermen. The lighi is one to prcserVe for Oregon the best fish ing stream in the United States. Thousands of immense Columbia Elv er salmon come up from the ocean In schools. The Oregon City falls stop them and for several hundred yards below the surging water is alive with the golden game dsn. Along about May 1, when the sport Is at Its height, the glllnetters invade the water, however, and after the seine nets complete the devastation there aren't enough fish left to furnish sport for a theological student. Thus the salmon are being rapidly killed off, while the sportsmen of the country are being robbed of one of the greatest fishing sites in the country. The Columbia River is open to net ters because It is wide and the net fish ermen are unable to stretch their meshes entirely across the river. But the Willamette at Oregon City Is only a narrow stream and ' It doesn't take many hauls to dispose of tons of beauti ful salmon and spoil the angling. as To eat or not to eat while fishing is the question that is troubling Thurston L. Johnson, of The Oregoniuti. One sandwich cost him in the neighborhood of $12 during a jaunt to Oregon City Friday afternoon. "I was sitting in my boat munching at a sardlne-rochelle sandwich," ex plained Mr. Johnson yesterday, laugh ing at His experience. "Inasmuch as both hands were busy I had my pole pointed out the back of the boat, like a 13-lnch gun, with one foot over tho stock. "Swish, went my reel, ail of a sud den, and splash went the pole and all." added the former bowling crack. "I guess I must have hooked a younsf whale, for the polo disappeared with the alacrity of a watermelon at a Southern picnic." And that's why the want columns con tain this advertisement: "Stolen One polo and line at Ore gon City. The guilty llsh is known, hut no questions asked upon restitution. Address Thurston L. Johnson, Oregonian composing room." as Henry Jaggar enjoyed an all-day fish ing jaunt lo the Oregon City falls Thursday and brought back in his bin American car a beautiful :o-pound sal mon. The odd feature of the catch lies in the fact that the salmon wriggled loosu from the spoon just ns Dr. K. C. Mc Farland hooked him from an adjoining boat with the gaff. Other members of the party were Dr. E. C. McFarland, secretary of the Mult nomah Anglers' Club, and Roscoe Faw- cett. BIG MEET IS ASSURED ENTRIES FOR STATE SWIMMING CHAMPIONSHIP NUMEROUS. Frank E.
