The Store of 100 Per Cet Service
PITCHER STARTS
EACH GAME ANEW
HALF-MINUTE STORE TALK.
Putting cuffs on a pair of
trousers in exactly two minutes if
the record made by our tailor shop
last Wednesday afternoon. The
customer was on his way home,
when he remembered that ho must
get a pair of outing trousers. After
making his selection here, he
asked if he could have them fin
ished immediately; which we did
in the time stated. He remarked:
"This Is certainly 100 per cent
service. I see why you call this
'The Store of '100 Per Cent Serv

time of- day, and we'll show you
what 100 per cent service Is.

AVIicn Connie Mack Asks How Ed

It Is Pretty Bad'-Cliristy Tells
How Weather Hits Him.
BY CHRISTY MATHEWSON,
The Giants' star Pitcher. " .
NEW YORK. July 25. (Special-)
The Western trip of the Glafcts
developed some of the toughest games
1 ever pitched since breaking into
the big leagues. Of course 1 have had
harder battles here and there, such as
that last one of the world's series in
Boston in 1912 and the ten-inning one
in Philadelphia against the Athletics
Jast Fall. But for steady going the
contests on this trip have all seemed
tough.
Every game, that a pitcher starts is
different. One day he will go out and
pitch through nine Innings and feel as
If he had not done any work at all, be
cause everything breaks right for him
and he is never in the hole and he can
nave himself. Tiie next time he may
be in the hole all the way and pitching
under a big strain. It seems as if he
were never going to get through with
the contest. This Is the sort of game
that takes it out of a pitcher.
Strangely enough, most pitchers turn
In their best games when they think
they don't feel Just right before they
begin to warm up. I have found this
to be true of myself. Before the last
game of the world's series in Boston in
1912 I did not believe I could lift my
arm above my head before I started to
work it out warming up. When Plank
began to warm up before the final
game of the world's series last Fall
"Connie" Mack sent a messenger from
the bench to Inquire how "Eddie's" arm
felt.
Plank Tradition Out.
'Pretty bad," Plank sent word back.
"Then it's all right. We'll win,''
chortled Ira Thomas. "Any time that
old boy says his whip feels stiff before
a game, look out. I worry when he says
his soup bone never felt better."
This is a tradition about Plank
among the Athletics.
Two years ago the Giants opened the
season at the Polo Grounds with Bos
ton, and "Hub" Perdue went out to
warm up for Stallings.
"How is the arm this year?" I asked
Perdue.
"Very bad," he replied. "Very bad. I
told George before I started to warm
up that I didn't think I could go two
Innings."
The Giants lost the game and col
lected four or Ave hits off Perdue that
day. Our batting was very scarce.
"Let's have a look at you some day
when your arm feels right," said Mc
Graw to Perdue after the contest,
st. Louis Game Hard One.
One of the hardest games I ever
pitched in my life was the last one of
the recent series in St. Louis, which the
Giants Anally won b,y a large score af
ter knocking three Cardinal pitchers
out of the box.
This probably sounds funny, because
I read in several newspapers that I
was loafing through the contest on
accoount of the lead we had and could
have tightened up any time. Take my
word for it that I was not doing much
loafing. The Cardinals hit me almost
as hard as we batted the three pitch
ers they brought out.
My first game in St. Louis was a hard
one, too, for the heat got to me.
Any time I start against St. Louis I
know it is not going to be any loaf.
The hard batting behind me saved me
on the last day of the series to which
I refer. There are no "spots" in the
batting order for me in St. Louis. They
always make mine a hard game out
there.
On this particular afternoon I was
foolish enough to look at the thermome
ter before I started to warm up and
saw that it read 105 In the shade and
1 knew I could not stay in the shade
and pitch that game of baseball. It Is
hard work to sit around in that tem
perature without being dressed for a
Turkish bath and pitching a game of
baseball does not resemble sitting
around.
Matty Knocks Weather.
"What are you looking at the ther
mometer for. Matty?" McGraw asked.
"Well, 1 want to tell you 'Mac.' it is
not my weather," I answered.
I had pitched the opening game of
the series, and my arm does not re
vive as quickly as it did ten years ago.
They started hitting me, but fortunate
ly the Giant batters could clout the
three Cardinal pitchers in more timely
snots than I got mine. It seemed to

me as if that game was never going
to end, and I want very much' to go
on record as saying that it was one of
the hardest I ever went through. I'll
vouch for the fact that it lasted three
days instead of two hours and a half,
as the official scorer said.
Then in Chicago, the six innings I
worked were hard, but not so stiff as
in that St. Louis game. It is true that
1 loafed on my lead in the contest with
the Cubs, as I had a nice margin when
1 went to work. This is the only sen
sible thing for a pitcher to do if he
expects to last in the big leagues. Most
managers will work a pitcher to death
If he is going good for a season or
two and they get the chance. It was
too much steady twirling that finally
put "Brownie" out of baseball.
Matty Meets 3-Flaagered Brown.
I saw "Three-Fingered" Brown when
the Giants were in St. Louis. He
came around to the Buckingham Hotel
one night, and he began to talk about
old times.
"I worked my heart out for the
Cubs during those years under Chance,"
Brown told me. "I would do anything
for Chance, but Murphy is the man
who hung it on me. For a couple of
years on the days when I was not
pitching I was warming up. Murphy
told me that I need never worry, as
he would take care of me for life. But
three months after hurting my knee 1
had been released to the minors Just
before I had a chance to cut Into the
money of a city series. A pitcher Is
a sucker to work himself to death."
McGraw does not do that with his
pitchers. He considers the individual,
and he never tried to force more work
on me than 1 wanted to do. In 1908
1 appeared in a lot of games, but It
was because "Mac" was shy on pitch
ers in the battle with the Cubs for
the championship, and I was in pretty
good shape. He did not shove me in
once without asking if I felt like work
ing. It took me a couple of seasons
to recover from the strain of that
fight, and McGraw told me at that
time that he would never pitch me out
of my regular turn without putting It
up to me. I have felt better this year
than I have for several seasons, and
mv arm has been fit to go to work
oftener than it has been since 1908.
Motorboat Fad Said to Be on Wane,
While Other Craft Are Once
More Coining Into Popular
Favor for Sports.
Sailors of the Willamette River are
sure that the game of yachting again
is on the ascendancy. They point to
the last Astoria regatta and the com
ment which was heard following it as
ample reason for revived interest in
one of the most ancient yet still pop
ular, sports.
"From what I have heard I am sure
that the committee of the Astoria re
gatta will see next year that the yacht
ing purses are large enough to bring
entries from all over the Northwest
to the Northwest's annual water meet,
says A. W. Stanchfield, port captain
of the Oregon Yacht Club and skipper
of the Fore 'n' Aft.
"The bay at Astoria is ideal for sail
racing and, while the sea at times is
too high for speeding with the Willam
ette types of boats, the sport is there
and there never is a time when the
meet cannot be staged.
"If for no other reason, the yachts
men will be in their own again Just
because they can turn out and keep
things going when the motorboats have
to stay in shore.
"For a while the public and all those
connected with the regattas really
could see only the speeding motor
boats, but since the rage has lost much
of its novelty the sailing game Is com
ing into its own again.
"It is a certainty that the Oregon
Yacht Club will have at least two more
ships in the Astoria fleet than It did
this year. ,
"Six made the trip this year, the
largest number ever at the mouth to
represent the Portland club. This added
recognition for yachting will not come
at the expense of the motorbftats, but
will be an. added feature for the big
water carnival. It will simply go to
make variety."
This cruise to Astoria is usually the
one big one of the year for the sailors.
Three of the boats which made the
last Journey took a leisurely Jaunt up
the Columbia on the return, the last
arriving in Portland but a week ago.
To those who own the, sail craft it is
surprising that more of the big trim
sailers are not to be seen on such ideal
WCaptain Stanchfield says it would
take a London, a Stevenson or a Rus
sell to fittingly describe the sail down
the Columbia
Be that as it may, it is a tour of
many thrills.
A feature which has Just come to
light is the mutiny aboard the Swal
low, when Potter and Racer claimed
to be getting weak from lack of hot
biscuit.
"Chef" Troy finally appeased the
mutineers with three packages of flour
and two cans of syrup, and that ac
counts for the report of the Swallow
coming in with a disabled crew.
The Swallow, Kenosha and Sparrow
also made a trip up the Columbia the
last two days of tfcelr Journey and
found wind and cruising conditions
Ideal.
The Fore -N Aft has been hauled on
the ways and is now undergoing minor
repairs which will make her a strong
bidder in the Labor day regatta.
Her decks have needed replacing and
this and other work will be done in
time to give her a tryout in two
weeks.
The Kenosha, Captain Nicholas, also
Is going on the ways to repair a leak
which troubled her down the Colum
bia. She had to put in at St. Helens
for temporary repairs which kept her
from getting into Astoria until the
races were over.
Ex-Commodore Yates returned from
Seattle at the end of the week, where he
talked to the boatmen in behalf of
the Panama-Pacific Exposition water
meet, of which he is the commissioner
for Oregon.
While no keel has been laid, there
still is a possibility that some Portland
men may get together and build boats
for the 10-meter class.
Such a size boat still would be serv
iceable for use on the Willamette and
Columbia,, and, of late, several of the
local men have discussed the feasibility
of having such a craft represent the
Oregon Yacht Club In the races for the
cup presented by Sir Thomas Llpton.

CODY SEES CLEAN SWEEP
Ted Preble Sure to Be One of En
trants at Carnival and Feats
Show He Has No Superior
in High Diving.
When Portland's athletes go South
next year to the Panama-Pacific ath
letic carnival, swimmers will make up
no small part, of the procession. And
of the swimmers, Portland will be well
represented In divers.
Professor Jack Cody of the Multno
mah Club expects almost a clean sweep
in this particular Held.
Cody for a long time claimed the
world's title for fancy and straight
diving. He is a wonderful diver and
is able to get results from his pupils.
One of these( is Ted Preble, who is
sure to be one of the entrants in the
Panama-Pacific water meet.
Preble's particular style of diving is
the leap from high towers and in that
field he has no superior, not even Clair
Tait, Multnomah Club's fancy diving
champion.
Preble holds several records for high
diving around the Northwest. At
Marshfield, where he gave an exhibition
July 4, he made a "swan dive" from a
place 42 feet above the water.
He has dived or Jumped from every
bridge between Eugene and Portland.
He completed a canoe trip down from
the Upper Willamette city only a week
ago.
Diving is the one sport above all
which demands absolute control of the
body at all times. Preble has mastered
it to such a degree that he actually
can reverse his motion while in the
air.

and every game was closely contested.
Conner and Clark always had plenty f
reserve and after the first set there
was little doubt of th final result.
I'atteraon and Kenly yesterday forced
the champions harder in the seml-flnala
match, which was only won after five
sets had been played.
By defeat Inn ft W, Mlntrham on Fri
day Adams, who was Interscholastl''
tennis champion of Chicago a few
years agro. won his way to the final
and will meet Boudnot Conner, the
former Yale crack, in the slnatfe final"
tomorrow This nromlaes to be the
275. best match of the tournament, aa both
players have come tnrougn mo weea a
play without difficulty and both plav
a brilliant amasliinar game. The odd
are slightly in favor of Conner. owlnr
to his having played the entire 9a
son while Adams haa bean too busy
on his ranch to practice before the
tournament started.
