Forty-seven thousand trout have just been planted in Lewis County streams by County Game War den Wynn and Deputy Zigler of this city. The trout were divided between the north fork of the Newaukum and Lincoln Creek. - m ; JY"'? v 7X l i ir ' ' .v ; j i ! ? HARRY HEILMAXX. Harry Heilmann. whose home run over the center field fence won Thurs day's game for San Francisco on the local lot, has even the famous Ping Bodie faded when it comes to slugging ability. And, what's more. Ping ad mits it. Heilmann is proving one of the sweetest hitters that ever wore Coast League livery and if he doesn't grow into a sensation next year when he goes back to Detroit, Coast League fans will be a sadly surprised lot. Heilmann got his first experience with the Portland Coast and Northwest League clubs two years ago. and. Just when Walter McCredie was chortling with glee about his young phenom, Detroit came along and drafted him. Heil mann was dug up out of the sand lots around San Francisco by James? J. Richardson, of the Spalding Company, who scouts, for McCredie as a sideline. JOHNSTON KEEPS LEAD OAK. OUTFIELDER HAS 73 RlS AXD 45 STOLEX BASES. Maggert Second for Scoring; and Baae Ilunnlnfr Schaller, Wolter and Gedeon Top Extra Bane Hitters. Jimmy Johnston, the Oakland nut fielder, etands head and shoulders above the other base stealers of the Pa cific Coast League, and according to the latest statistics he is leading the run getters. He is in second place when It comes to making two-base hits. Johnston has crossed the plate at the various parks along the circuit on 73 occasions, and Harl Maggert. of Los Angeles, is but three scores behind the leader. With a mark of 45 stolen bases Johnston is not worrying much, for his nearest rival is 18 bases behind. Mag gert, of Los Angeles, and Biff Schaller, of San Francisco, are tied for second place with 27 pilfered pillows. Following are the records of the leaders in the various departments of the game, including the games of July 11: Leading run makers Johnston, Oakland. 73; Maggert, Los Angeles, 70; Oedeon, Salt Daks, 69; Ryan, t-alt Lake, 65; Schaller.

AF LATE the sporting pages of our dailies have abounded with the mightiness and prowess of the great and only Hans Wagner, and when the inimitable shortstop of the Pirates banged out his 100th home run during his 16-year career as a big leaguer, it was heralded broadcast over the coun try. Then the sporting scribes took i second thought and delved into the rec ord of Ty Cobb, the famous Georgia peach, when the peerless swatter sent over his 60th drive around the circuit during his seven years' connection with the American League. Again, in the last few years. Frank Baker has been hailed as the greatest home-run artist of all, mainly because his exploits occurred in world's series games, which attracted universal at tention. ,M But the real kingpin of them all so the records will show is Curtis C. Cravath, of the Philadelphia Nationals. when It comes to home runs and extra bases hits. Hails From the Coast. Cravath, a Pacific Coast product, hails from the environments of Los Angeles, and while connected with the beraphs held, with Truck Eean. the record for home runs In the Coast League during about five years. In i9us ne was dratted by the Boston Americans, tried out and sent over to comlskeys White Sox and farmed out to tne Minneapolis teamyof the Ameri can Association. During his two vears' connection with the Millers he led the league in batting and contributed in no mean degree to the pennant-winning of that aggregation for two consecutive seasons. After that. Philadelphia took him up, and he is now finishing his fourth season with the Quakers. During this time he led the National League two seasons In home runs and extra bases. In 1913 he batted out 19 homers, and exactly the same number In 1914. This season about half gone he has 12 home runs to his credit, which finishes his record up to date with BO home runs in two seasons and a half. Cravath may not have the acumen and dexterity as a batter and base runner or Cobb, nor the astuteness and agility of Wagner, but when it comes to clouting the sphere over the fence he takes a back seat to none. Wag ner's record of a hundred home runs in 16 years, and Cobb's record of some thing like 60 circuit swats in say seven years, are. as the record shown. easily outdistanced by a record of ou nome runs in two seasons and a half. If Cravath ever finishes a big league career as long as Cobb's or Wagner"s the chances are that his home-run record will tower above, theirs at the ratio of two or three to one. O BKIEX TO SHOOT AT CHICAGO Portland Man to Be Oregon Kiilry at Grand Anieriean Handicap. Peter H. O'Brien will be the reore- sentative for Oregon at the grand Amer ican handicap trapshooting tournament at Chicago next month.' This much was decided last night when Joseph A. Addleman. secretary of the Portland Gun Club, reectved a letter from Lou ttayDurn mat because of business rea sons it would be impossible for him to leave ia orande to go liast. Kay burn won the right in the Oreiron state shoot at the Jenne station grounds jast April, ana at that time O'Brien was runner-up. A a result of this Pete may not go to the Pacific Indians gath ering at Tacoma this week, but instead will likely concentrate his mind on the big shoot of the year at Chicago. He will be on hand at the Portland Gun Club grounds to enter the 100-bird race mis morning, starting at 10 o clock. Baseball Brevities. Manaser Connls iaolr idwi.... i. . .....

Everything is now lovely In Montreal say reports from the Canadian city. The Mon treal club Is out ahead In the International race and the turnstiles are working at a iciy ciip lor tne ciud owners. Pitcher Robert Johnson was released from the New ITngland League because he In sisted on staying out until the wee sma' hours of the morn and would not keep In condition. Connie Mack picked him up and Is giving him a trial with the Athletics. Now the New England officials are peeved because they say It is a sorry example for other youngsters who bat 'em out In the midnight circuit. Pitcher Frank Schmltt, once good enough for the champion Braves to squabble over, got the can from the Youngstown club of the Central League. His arm went back on him. In a recent game between Tulaa and Denison. In the Western Association, Right Fielder Franklin, of the Tulsa Cluh, threw Catcher Query, of Denison, out at first twice on his hit to the right garden. Query must amble to the first sack something ' llko "Dad" Meek. Wllkesbarre will continue In the New Tork State l-eapue despite reports to the contrary. Attendance is poor in that ham let at present but the owners say they have too much Invested to throw up th sponge. wally Schang Is perfectly satisfied with his berth at third base for the Athletic and will be kept there by Mack as lona- as he is not needed behind the bat. Wally snya playing third after being on the receiving end of the heaves of some of Mack's new twirlers Is just like a vacation. M'GRAW'S WORDS QUOTED Manager Stalling, of Braves, Wor ried Over Defeats Till Ho Is About Crazy, Says Noted Twlrler for Giants. PT CHRISTY MATHEWPON. The Olants" Famous Pitcher. NEW TORK. July 17. (Special.) "Walt until you see what I wrote about you this week. I'm onto you and you can't get away with the stuff you have been pulling." It was" the voice of John McGraw breathing these word Into the ear of Eason, called umpire bv courtesy, .ac cording to McGraw, and also called sev eral other things, not by courtesy. The cause of the irritation was a strike I pitched to Cravath that Kaaon called ball. As a rule, I am not fussy about discriminating between strikes and balls, leaving most of. that to the um pire, but when a - - ball drills through ' "'. WIT . . the heart of the I : .' ? plate without the -hitter waving his j bat at It and the umpire calls it a ball. I have rcavhed : my limitations. Ka- ' son Is pretty rotten : It .was a tough i XTJf. game of a double- :: header, with t he bases full, one out.'! and three and two r- 'L on Cravath. the bat- fc,., C , j ter, a tougn oira, a... very tough bird.chrU,r "" The Giants were one run In the lead t the time. Cravath hits low curve ball pretty good, hooking them on the end of his bat, and McGraw called Lo bert over to the bench from his place at third base. "Tell Matty to. hand him a curve If he thinks he can do It." advised Mc Graw. Lobert passed the tip along to me. Esios Kaila to See Break. I broke a high curve across Cravath'a chest, and it caught them all standing still, even Eaton. Cravath had not been looking for a curve ball at that stage, and when he saw It start high, he thought sure it was a fast one and he had his base. So did Kason. Neither noticed the break on the ball which pushed it through the strike zone. "Ball, said Kason. and the tying run was forced across the plate. The decision did not make so much even tual difference, for "Kobbie." our right fielder, doubled a man at the plate on the next play. Then we made another run and won the game, but the de cision still stuck by McGraw. The neuritis still sticks in my left arm. although I am able to work now regularly. It was in my neck, loo. and then I could not throw a ball without having a pain shoot through my neck and head, which made me think it would drop off my head. The New York club has had me try everything, but the only treatment which has eased the arm Is to have it baked. This has drawn the pain out of my neck. I have also been through a bout with an osteopath, but that re lief appears to be only temporary. I'm not complaining now. for I should be glad it is not in my right arm. too. and I can pitch so long as it stays out of my neck. Defeats Worry Stalllna. If the Braves don't get Into their stride pretty soon George tailings will go crasy. The defeats of his club eat into him and he can never forget it. even when off the field. In this respect he is like Frank Chance and entirely different from John McGraw, who puts everything he has into the team while the ganie is going on and then forgets it until the next day after he takes off his uniform. "I've got to go." remarked a friend of McGraw's, as he left a group ut the Imperial Hotel. I have an engage ment for dinner." "I hope for your sake it Isn't with George Stallings." answered "Mac." "It would be my Idea of a lodge of sor row." That the Boston chief Is worried is apparent in his every move. No player can escape morning practice, and he is reported to be ahead of his record on clothes this season. He recently had a pair of trousers made with a leather seat, according to the gossip of the league. The high cost of sliding on the bench in his nervous momenta was keeping him broke. "I only wish my boys would show as much tendency to slide to bases as I do to slide up and down this bench." he declared while in New Tork for the last series. "We might be somewhere then." Brooklyn Stumbling niork. The Brooklyn club proved a stum bling block to both the Giants and the Braves, and the team deserves a whole lot of credit, for It was playing good baseball. Of 'course we all hold the Giants were playing in-and-out ball. This Is Just what the club has been doing all season. One day they will go out and bust the ball and get a lot of runs for a pitcher, and the next a twlrler can work hla head off and they won't put a run under him. Tes reau pitched a wonderful game In Philadelphia and couldn't win It be cause the team failed to prop him with a single tally. That defeat made Mc Graw as sore as any this year. "Mac" is becoming fVeer with the fines all the time, and he doesn't care whom he sticks one on. He plastered a prominent player the other day. and this prominent player let out quite a roar, for he likes his money. It Isn t because I want to take your dough." declared McGraw to this man. "but I want to try to get you to re member some things when you are out there In a game of .ball. I would be willlhg to pay the fine out of my own pocket if It would do the team anv good." ABERDEEN IS RAISING $2000 Ball Club Directors Expect to Have Snrplns for Next Season. ABERDEEN. Wash., July 17 (Spe cial.)
