McCredle'a little fellows are too young to stand the tension of a nine Inning game. They usually do very nicely for four or five cantos, then they're almost sure to blow up and make the put-up wish he had gone to see the Laue-Davls Juniors perform. Instead. Yesterday's eihlbltlon, for which the Portland people paid out something over 81,200 to see, was typical, though It wasn't half as bad as many that have gone before. For five Innings the kids had good luck. They didn't get Into any very bad holes and not a cog slipped. Then Donahue tried to be bril liant and take a bunt that Pitcher Pernoll could have fielded as easy as noodles. The runner. Dillon, reached the first station safely and that was the signal for the Beavers to give another ohe of their periodical donation parties. The pitcher Immediately be came easy and the fielders vulnerable. Jud Smith wss next up. He hit a fly In right field, which would have been but a single had there been a fast fielder lrt that neck of the woods. The fielder's name was Atherton and when he finally lined ud In front of the boun-I cing sphere Smith was half way to sec ond. H1b finders were butter and the bouncing sphere eluded him. while Smith traveled to third base and Dillon waddled leisurely home. Delmna wus the next batter. He hit the ball where somebody wasn't and Smith ambled home. Two runs. That was all. but It was enough, for the Beavers couldn't land on "Dolly" Gray when landing was worth while. Pokorny Is Bottsn Ajraln. Pokornv 'again distinguished himself by Inefficiency and waa hooted by the fans. The lone error chalked against him doesn't tell half the story. That error waa a muff of an accurately thrown ball at a critical point. At another time "Porky"Vushed wildly off hla bag when Pernoll picked up a bunt and there was eonnequsntly nobody covering the sack when the pitcher turned to throw. At another time he started valiantly for a foul. Donahue .started at about the earn time, but seeing the fielder nearer to It, he stopped. Pokorny stopped, too. and the ball screeched with laughter as It hit the ground. Either one of the two , could have reached It had he kept run ning. At still another time a foul was hit behind Pokorny. but the latter never made a move to get It. Casey, though much farther away, ran for the foul and onlv missed It about five feet. Pokorny may be a very nice young man, but he can't play ball yet He may make good some day If he prac tices real hard for four or five years but folks who pay their good money to see a coast league ball game don't pay it to watch kids practice snd when that's the kind of baseball dished out to them they feel buncoed. If the Mc Credles have anv regard for their pa trons they will take Pokorny out of the game at once. Atherton Is old and rheu matic and slow, but he knows the game. He knows enough to keep out of the way of other players, at least. LOS ANGELES. AB. R. II. PO. A. E. Monday Opening of race meeting; of ths Empire City Trot ting association. New York City.

GEARY WILL DESIGN YACHT FOR EVERETT (Special DIapttcb to Tb Joomll.) Everett. Aug. 6. Ted Geary, designer, builder and skipper of the victorious Spirit, has signified his willingness to design a racing craft for the Everett Yacht Club, and to have the plana fln- lahed In time to permit of early build ing In the spring. Geary attended a meeting of the local yachting fraternity and he. with Rrott Calhoun, was given an honorary mem- i tlon DBrsiiip. me youimui marine architect expressed hla keen enjoyment of the honor conferred and ulso voiced tho thanks of Mr. Calhoun. The local club has a membership of thirty-five, ten more than the Seattle.

It Is decidedly nauseating, a'l this rot about Britt demanding that Gam must come to him to secure a match. By what right does ths plumber na tive of ths Sunshine state make lifts J demand? Is not the fact well estab lished In sporting clrclu tliai tno negio fighter during bis Association with Al Herford waa forced to "lav down ' to Britt before Joe refused longer to sub mit to one of the biggeat fake llgnt framera In the game? Followers of the nquared nrotia have been buncoed so frequently or late that perhaps one more fluke would only ma Re It a dead certainty that the game would be effectually burled in Ban Francisco provided a permit were IssueJ for a match between Gans and Britt At this distance it is really question able whether the San Francisco super visors would issue a nermlt tor a matcn between the pair. Certainly no permit would be granted If any person on the ooara Knew anytning about uans ana his capabilities as a fighter. If Joe Gans ever enters a ring with Britt again It means that Jamej Edward will ever don the mitts for another pub lic milt I will admit that a fight between ths pair would probably draw a record break In house, and it would be an easy matter for Gans to agree to "lay down" to hlg white opponent, as he did In the past. hTere Is absolutely no doubt that Britt would agree to give Gaus every cent of the big purse In such event, and possibly Gans could afford to retire permanently from the game a rich man after the "frame-up." But would he do such a thing at this stage In his career? At best Gans will either meet his Waterloo or retire per manently from the padded arena In an other year or two. He Is not ready to do so yet. and any sane follower of the fighting game knows that champions in their respective classes don't have to go to ex-champlons to secure matches. Britt nt heart does not wish to meet Gans because he knows very well that the colored fighter "has It on him at every stage of the game." It would be foolish from a money making stand point for the Callfornlan to make any such admission, of course, but never theless such Is the case. Britt Is Crooked. Knowing both men, their seylea of fighting, and having seen each In ac- not once, but many times, I feel TRI-CIfY GAMES Trunks and Brewers Are Shut Out Cubs Make Close Fight at Wood burn.

Flushed with victory In points over Nelson who was so de cisively defeated at Goldfleld by Gans Britt, as is his custom after each fight. Issues lengthy staterrients which he ped dles out to sporting writers of the Bay City about what he will and will not do. However, In one matter James Ed wards is no fool. He saves his money and Invests It. Or, nuher, I should say his father Influences htm to do so. Britt Is "out for the coin" at all times, and he has never yet fought but once "on the square," when he faced a man his equal, or superior, and that was at Oolmft when Nelson knorked him out. The Dane could have done so asraln In the recent meeting were It not for tho fact that Gans finished him as a ring fighter that terrible September day when a foul blow was delivered by Nel son to save himself from a knockout, ronght an Unfit Stan. Nelson was unfit to enter a ring when he fought Britt the Inst time, and he Is unfit to ever enter a ring again. Even In that condition Britt could not score a knorkout. How, then, does he pro Jose knocking out a real champion? in all probability a match will be ar ranged between Britt and Gans, but one thing is sure. It will never be ac complished without James Edward try ing his level best to dodge it on one excuse or another. The shrewd Call fornlan knows very well he has no chance to win If tho fight is "pulled off on the level." vet he reroa-nlzes also that fight followers all over the conn- j try except possiDiy in san irancisco ae slre to see the nalr once more in action. It is hardly probable that San Francisco would get the fight at that. Goldfleld or Tonopah would hid hard against any city hanging up a purse for the fight, and this event would not be allowed to slip away unchallenged by sagebrusher mining promoters as an ex cellent chance to advertise the state. Bidding for the fight, too, would be something else besides "hot air talk." There is still another feature about the affair if a match is decided on, and that is that if it were pulled off in Ne vada anywhere Gans would get a better show than In San Francisco. There is no denying the fact that Callfornlan. are loyal to the native son, and Britt would get all the heM of any dealing In San Francisco. I doubt whether the fight will be pulled off there. If the pair ever meet again It will be Britt's last fight for a decent nurse un less Gans drops dead In the ring that is. if the fight Is not fixed. I don't think the fight could be other- New York's new publlo utilities commission has been asked to take steps for the removal of electric street railway poles from the centers of sev eral streets much used by motorists.

Their motor was covered with more than 1.000 auto graphs of persons who wished them good speed on their Journey. Connecticut s new automobile law will do away with constables' graft. It provides that cars shall not be oper ated "at a speed greater than Is reason able and proper, having regard to the width, traffic and use of the highway," nor so as to endanger life or limb of any person.
